MacG's podcast is an inspiration to the youth - teaching them the importance of owning their story.

Ranked higher than some of the most internationally popular podcasts, Podcast and Chill with MacG has a divided audience, especially in its motherland, South Africa. This is because many people who feel the need to comment or share a perspective on the fast-growing entertainment brand, are too focused on what is being talked about, instead of paying attention to why it's being talked about.

P & C with MacG is built upon the foundation of documenting Black history. How do they do it? By establishing a platform for people to speak their truth. What do we know about the truth in society? It is unscripted, and most importantly, it is subjective to one's own version of it. This, however, does not change the fact that MacG's podcast holds no restriction or limitation for expression.

This unfiltered platform of unlimited expression is the reason why Chillers are not crazy for sticking up for the podcast, regardless of what negativity the show may encounter. Firstly, television hardly provides raw, unfiltered messaging which genuinely speaks to the audience in a truthful manner. Secondly, the news only tell us what they decide is relevant for us to pay attention to, and most of it is sad by the way. Lastly, brands only associate themselves with people as long as it's profitable to them. Think of how many Black people are used in adverts & how many of them have to walk on egg shells because of their brand affiliation, let alone get fired for the slightest controversy? The point is, Podcast and Chill is an outlet for the youth to experience the unfiltered truth of anyone who appears on the show, while finding a piece of themselves in the diverse narratives shared on the network.

Podcast and Chill with MacG should last forever in the entertainment history books. Not only has it paved the way for more podcasts, it has shown perseverance considering how rare it is such content to still exist despite the attempted reputational damage done by brands, corporate gangs together with their paid influencers. Dj Maphorisa jokingly claims one should not go to the podcast if they don't want to ruin their career. This has some humour to it considering that quite a few have run the risk of being canceled for revealing too much of their own truth. However, the podcast has had some thought provoking episodes which have shed some light on relevant affairs such as the state of South African media, narrated by Hlaudi Motsoeneng, or the deep rooted racism in South Africa as narrated by Celeste Ntuli.

On the internet, there's great and terrible stuff, but people choose what they want to embrace. What Podcast and Chill with MacG stands for is very inspiring. It's a platform for speaking your own truth, regardless of what narrative the heart tells you to push. It's a visually appealing, sonically funny, and vibrationally chilled piece of art which captures the heart of many chillers. Let the mass audience not be fooled by snippets, instead watch the full episodes, and if you have to, let your criticism be constructive instead of being destructive. Salute to the team, on and off the camera. To the rest of us, salute for watching, and may we be inspired to unleash our own voices, on our own platforms, for the sake of harmonious vibes and energy.

Danko.
