Ghosting the Fam: Is It Ever Okay to Stay Low-Key?

It’s the debate that’s splitting the 947 family right down the middle! On this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we’re asking the uncomfortable question: If you’re visiting a city where family lives, are you obligated to see them? Zweli and Noluthando dive into the deep end of family dynamics, exploring why some of us feel an overwhelming sense of guilt for staying "incognito," while others argue that avoiding family drama is the ultimate form of self-care. We hear from listeners who have successfully hidden their trips from the relatives, and others who believe that "showing up" is a non-negotiable sign of respect. Are you team "Family First" or team "Keep It Private"? Join the conversation as we unpack the emotional rollercoaster of coming home. Spend weekday afternoons with Zweli. He keeps you in the loop with everything from music and movies to sport and pop culture. Hear what the Word on the Street is, test your skills with the high-pressure 6 Out of 6, and get ready to be entertained.
