    World Cup eve, xenophobia boils over, and Malema’s defamation case derailed

    How is it already the middle of the week, and the year?! If, this Thursday, you feel out of the news loop, let Unread host, broadcast journalist Graeme Raubenheimer, draw you back in. He’s hand-picked the most-read stories from the week so far. We start with President Cyril Ramaphosa’s recent foreign employment interventions and ignored warnings against xenophobic intimidation, and then examine EFF leader Julius Malema’s derailed defamation case against the Patriotic Alliance’s Kenny Kunene. Later in the show, the economy, despite the odds, shows great signs of growth, and there’s a renewed demand for Johannesburg’s high-end homes. Finally, FIFA World Cup fever is here, with Bafana coach Hugo Broos daring their harshest critics to keep underestimating his yellow-and-green “whipping boys” in a tough Group A. All of these stories – covered in 10 minutes or less. Expect fresh shows twice a week. This show has been carefully produced, presented and edited by Raubenheimer, News24 visual director Wynand Louw and video journalist Luke Daniel.

Cape Town also gets the nod for one of the world's prettiest restaurants, and legendary goalie Ithumeleng Khune fancies Bafana’s opening World Cup chances next week.

    Gana chairs Phala Phala impeachment, more petrol pain, and a bulletproof BMW

    Before you know it, it’s Thursday and you’ve missed half the week’s current affairs coverage. But fear not, Unread’s host, broadcast journalist Graeme Raubenheimer, has carefully curated a list of News24 stories from the week thus far to keep you firmly in the know. We begin in Parliament where Rise Mzansi’s Makashule Gana has been elected, not without fierce debate, to head up the much-delayed Phala Phala impeachment committee. There’s more petrol price pain at the pumps, Liam Jacobs has politically flip-flopped his way from the DA to the PA and back to the DA again, and in sport, some Bafana Bafana players did not get US visas by the time they were due to fly out to the FIFA World Cup on Sunday. Finally, funds in the thousands of rands have been raised to buy a new coffee machine for a seasoned Hawks official testifying before the Madlanga Commission. Only in Mzansi! All of these stories covered in 10 minutes or less. Expect fresh shows every week. This show has been carefully produced, presented and edited by Raubenheimer, News24 visual director Wynand Louw and video journalist Luke Daniel. This show is then vigorously quality-checked by an editor and/or senior member of News24.
