5B DIABETES AWARENESS WITH HOLLY RAE (11 NOV 26)

World Diabetes Day is coming up this Saturday, and there's a pretty frightening statistic that we need to talk about. According to the latest figures from Stats SA, diabetes was responsible for nearly 29,000 deaths in South Africa in 2024. That's roughly 79 people every single day. But behind those numbers are real people, often living with this condition from a very young age. Our next guest is someone you know for her incredible music, her amazing voice and her infectious energy. But there's another side to her story that you might not know. Holly Rey was diagnosed with diabetes when she was just 11 years old. She's spent almost two decades learning to navigate life with the condition, and today she's using that experience to open up conversations about diabetes through a new podcast called Diabetes Matters.

5B SLEEPY BALOYI (10 NOV 26)

Thabo’s attempt to get a full night’s sleep took an unexpected turn after he took two sleeping tablets instead of following his prescribed dose. The effects followed him into the studio, where he struggled to stay awake, stumbled and eventually had to be convinced by the team and 5FM listeners to leave his car behind and get a lift home. A funny on-air moment with a serious reminder about medication and road safety.
