Thursday's talk radio was dominated by stories of state dysfunction and human cost — from the Compensation Fund haemorrhaging millions while injured workers wait, to Joburg's escalating debt fight with Eskom and the closure of Nafiz Modak's case six years after Charl Kinnear's murder. Migration tensions ran across both stations, with hosts wrestling openly with whether to report undocumented workers, while listeners and callers pushed back on Home Affairs inefficiencies. Lighter threads on concert culture and proposed Eastern Cape name changes gave the day texture.
