Cde Fatso on Creative Hubs, Comedy & Real Democracy | Friday Drinks

from ZFN FRIDAY DRINKS

Join Tinashe and Ranga live in studio with special guest Cde Fatso as they unpack innovation, startups, creative hubs like Moto Republik and Magamba Network, and using comedy and satire as tools for innovation. From GDP growth that doesn't reach ordinary Zimbabweans, to calls for real direct democracy over "socialism for the rich and austerity for the poor," says Cde Fatso this raw conversation questions who controls media and how creatives can build viable careers while pushing for change. Why businesses must support the arts, how Zambezi News and Shoko Festival started, and Cde Fatso's vision for ecosystems over solo artistry. Sponsored by Delta Corporation – 'Share a Coke' and join the conversation. Moto Republik & Magamba: Building creative ecosystems. Political satire: Zambezi News, Shoko Festival, comedy nights. GDP myth: 6.6% growth not trickling down. Real democracy: Direct power for ordinary people. Viable comedy careers in Zimbabwe. Artists & mental health: Overcoming drug addiction and depression.
