[Audio Pod] Fuel Rationing Looms in SA and Iran too is "Unbanned"
Loading player...
This week on Insider Exchange, we kick things off with a tale from Simon Brown, who'll now be referred to as street fighter or Mr Miyagi explaining why LIV Golf didn’t quite live up to the hype. Somehow this turns into stories of kung fu days, Springbok karate colours, bar fights at Stags Head in Cape Town… and a robber who had a very bad day.
In Useful Updates, we unpack the Unisa Airport conversation, the latest SARB rate decision, rising tension around Iran and the Suez Canal, a surprise Chuck Norris headline, SARS going international, a Showmax investigation, whether gold is finally a buy, and the slow fade of the A380.
In the Deep Dive, we tackle a serious question: could South Africa face fuel rationing? We explore what a tipping point might look like, how other countries prepare for supply shocks, and the real-world implications from work-from-home shifts to restricted driving days and sector-wide disruptions.
In Make-It-Make-Sense, we work through Iran sanctions potentially being lifted, a Lion King lawsuit making waves, and yet another case of hundreds of millions going missing.
We close with an Unfiltered Opinion on the dumbest financial decisions we’ve ever made. Simon takes the lead with a classic a R20K investment into Brainware that, after 16 years, returned a dissapointing cheque.
