5 After Hours

Did this really just happen on the Kardashians?

Dr Fick is in to talk about end of year fatigue and how to avoid it.

Two friends go on a double date, but one of them ends up having more chemistry with her friend’s date than her own! Everyone notices the spark, and now she wants to pursue him. But is it fair game because they’ve only just met, or is your friend’s date automatically off-limits?

For Try It Tomorrow, Boipelo took on the challenge of her first-ever boxing class at Smith’s Boxing Academy. It was an explosive, high-energy session that pushed me out of my comfort zone and turned out to be so much fun!  

High School reunions are completely unnecessary!

Should you talk to your friends about private family matters?

Should your partner have a say in what you wear?

We unpack the tricky territory of dating in the workplace; what it could mean for your career, what it could cost you, and how to navigate it, especially when you’re new to the working world. Our resident HR expert, Penny Mkhize, helped us break it all down.

Would you be okay attending a wedding where guests are required to lock their phones away, with no photos or videos allowed during the ceremony and reception? We unpacked whether a no-phone wedding is a reasonable boundary or an unreasonable demand. 

The Wheel of Embarrassment put Boipelo on the hot seat! You sent in your most embarrassing, spicy and juicy questions, and on Thursday, she spun the wheel and answered whatever it landed on. No dodging, no choosing — think of it as Truth or Truth!

We took a quick look at the biggest moments from this year’s Video Music Awards (VMAs)— from the standout fashion and red-carpet looks to the biggest wins, performances and talking points of the night.

We got into the question of intimacy at a distance, would you be comfortable being sexually intimate with your partner over the phone or on a video call? We unpacked the boundaries, trust and comfort levels that come with keeping that part of your relationship alive from a distance. 

On the Hot Take Hotline, we asked whether leaving the club at midnight means you haven’t actually gone out! The listeners weighed in on how late is too early to call it a night — and whether a proper night out only starts getting serious after midnight.

We had a nightcap with The Northmob! We chatted to the Pitori rap group about their journey in Hip Hop, their recent accolades, new music and all that lies ahead

We put a relationship dilemma to the 5 Nation: if your partner won’t give you their phone password and insists on unlocking the phone themselves, is that a red flag or is it simply a reasonable privacy boundary? We asked: Fair or Foul?

We put this one to the listeners: “holidays with your friends are better than holidays with your partner”. Our listeners weighed in with some very interesting takes, experiences and opinions on who makes the better holiday companion.

We have a light hearted conversation and ask listeners; “what’s something your parents never allowed you to do growing up that you completely understand now that you’re older?”

We find whether the 5Nation agrees or disagrees that; if you invite friends to a birthday dinner at a restaurant, you HAVE to cover the full bill!
