5L INTERVIEW WITH SIBUSISO VILANE

Sibusiso Vilane is firmly in the second category. From becoming the first Black African to summit Mount Everest, to completing the Seven Summits and trekking to both the South and North Poles, he has built one of the most extraordinary adventure résumés in the world. And in February 2026, he added something absolutely wild to that list. After nearly two weeks acclimatising on Chile’s Ojos del Salado volcano, in freezing winds and oxygen levels less than half of what we’re used to, he started the World’s Highest Marathon. A 42.2 kilometre descent from 6,893 metres above sea level. Only five of sixteen starters finished. He crossed the line just after 6:30 in the morning after more than 16 hours, becoming the first African to complete it.

HIT PLAY TO FIND OUT.   Alright, so you know we brought back Better Call 5 Lunch this year. And when we say we want to amplify your big moment… we mean it. This past weekend, on Valentine’s Day, something really special happened. The kind of moment that has you holding your breath. The kind of moment where time slows down. The kind of moment that could change two people’s lives forever. There was suspense. There were nerves. There were emotions running high. And behind the scenes? Let’s just say the 5 Lunch team was fully invested.

5L BETTER CALL 5 LUNCH - ROMEO

IS ROMEO (not his real name) REALLY GOING TO PROPOSE  TO HIS GIRLFRIEND ON THE RADIO?   Earlier we told you that something big is coming with Better Call 5 Lunch. And when we say big, we mean heart racing, palms sweating, life changing big. Before the moment actually happens, we wanted you to meet the man at the centre of it all. For now, we are calling him Mr Anonymous. We sat down with him ahead of time to talk about his love story, how this relationship began, what she means to him, and just how nervous he really is about what he is about to do. This is the real stuff. The backstory. The butterflies. The doubts. The hope. Here is that conversation with Romeo

5L INTERNATIONAL DAY OF WOMEN & GIRLS IN SCIENCE

  Today we are marking International Day of Women and Girls in Science. And instead of just talking about the stats, we wanted to speak to someone who is actually living this reality every single day. Brenda Marx is a scientist who has built her career in a space that is still largely male dominated. She is passionate about research, education, and opening doors for young women who want to step into science but might not always see themselves represented there. We sat down with Brenda earlier to talk about her journey, the challenges she has faced, what needs to change, and what advice she has for young girls who are curious about the world and maybe dreaming about a future in science.
