  5MM OH! SHIP EXPERIENCE (19 OCT 26) 19.10.2026 10dk

  Okay, so we've been talking about OH! Ship and the incredible opportunity you have to win a trip for two, but today I want to hear from the people who've actually experienced it! Because imagine being on a cruise ship for three days, surrounded by music, DJs, entertainment, good food and people who are all there to have a good time. It's basically a floating music festival! But I want to know what it's REALLY like. Is it everything people say it is? What's the atmosphere like? Do you even get time to sleep? And what's something nobody tells you about going on OH! Ship? So if you've been on OH! Ship before, we want to hear from you!

  5MM CULTURE SHIFT - TAKING VIDEOS AT CONCERTS 19.10.2026 14dk

  Concert culture has evolved, and one of the biggest debates is whether phones enhance or take away from the live music experience. These days, it's common to see concertgoers recording their favourite songs, taking pictures and sharing moments on social media. But has this changed the way we experience live music?For some, recording is part of the experience. Concert tickets can be expensive, and seeing your favourite artist live might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Capturing those moments means you can look back on them years later, share them with friends and relive the excitement.However, others argue that constantly filming can distract people from fully enjoying the performance and even affect those around them.  A 2018 UK Eventbrite survey found that 65% of respondents felt taking pictures and videos could cause them to miss out on the live experience, while 70% found it irritating when others constantly filmed. On the other hand, some believe that recording and being present aren't mutually exclusive. You can sing, dance and enjoy the performance while capturing moments that matter to you. And for a generation that has grown up documenting and sharing experiences digitally, taking videos may simply be a natural part of enjoying a concert.It also raises the question of concert etiquette. Is there a difference between recording your favourite song and having your phone up for the entire show? And should people be able to enjoy a concert however they choose, as long as they're not disturbing anyone else?

  5MM Japan's New Clubbing Trend – Reading in Silence! (19 OCT 26) 19.10.2026 6dk

  Okay, this might just be the most unexpected clubbing trend I've heard of! In Tokyo, Japan, people are going to nightclubs, but instead of dancing, drinking and partying, they're sitting on the dance floor reading BOOKS! It's called a Book Rave, and on 26 September, a club called SPREAD hosted an event where they covered the dance floor with carpets, played chilled ambient music and invited people to bring their favourite books and read together in silence. And get this, people actually paid to attend! You could even exchange books with other people, and towards the end, those who wanted to dance could get up and do that. The video has since gone viral, and people have mixed opinions. But I kind of love the idea of socialising without the pressure of actually having to socialise! Would you attend a book rave, or are we taking this whole quiet-life trend a little too far?

  It’s New Music Friday, and our next guest is celebrating release day with us! Johannesburg-born singer and songwriter Langa Mavuso has given us songs like “Sunday Blues,” “Mvula” and “Love Lost,” pairing that unmistakable voice with some very honest storytelling.

Now we get to hear what he still wanted to say.
