South African TV May Never Be The Same Again - Episode #181

from Daily Bagel · host Bagel Media

In Today's Show: South Africa’s TV industry may be entering its biggest shake-up in decades after Canal+ pulled the plug on Showmax and began reshaping MultiChoice from the inside. Meanwhile, a very different technological shift is unfolding across Africa, where $40 smartphones could suddenly bring millions of new users online. A war thousands of kilometres away is also quietly rerouting global shipping - with more cargo vessels now sailing around South Africa and pushing up global transport costs. And in the wildcard, two orphaned rhino calves triggered a rescue mission that ended with a rare second chance.
