Kopano & Nick love TV shows. And movies. And books. And video games (well, actually that's just Nick - Kopano not so much). Every week, the pair of them get together to discuss the entertainment that has been keeping their occupied and away from the mess that is current affairs.
This week Kopano and Nick got stuck into some true crime so beware: trigger warnings about content some listeners may find disturbing abound! First, a look at two documentaries about Thabo Bester and Nandipha Magudumana, and their crazy story involving murder, prison breaks, shopping at Woolworths and a PR launch from a cell. Next, two crime documentaries from the USA that are so weird that you might confuse them with the films of David Lynch!

Love is blind. Catfish aren't!
Today, Nick and Kopano dive into two shows where people are connecting without ever seeing each other face to face. One is the genuinely disturbing Unknown Number: The High School Catfish in which a pair of young sweethearts are in for the shock of their lives. The other is the highly entertaining Love Is Blind UK, where people get married to someone who they've never clapped eyes on during the dating process. We also tried to watch The Secret Lives of Mormon Moms. We did. We tried. We really tried.
