Bongani Bingwa speaks to Mantwa Chinoamadi, Festival Director and Producer, about the return of one of Joburg’s most anticipated cultural events — the Standard Bank Joy of Jazz. For one electric weekend, Sandton transforms into the epicentre of Africa’s biggest jazz celebration, where legends share the stage with rising stars, and the sounds of soul, swing, and rhythm bring people together from across the globe. More than just music, this festival is about culture, connection, and that unmistakable joy that only jazz can bring. With the countdown nearly over, the excitement is building for what promises to be an unforgettable experience.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Adam Gilchrist for a global roundup of the biggest international stories making headlines. First, former French President Nicolas Sarkozy has been sentenced to prison after being found guilty of using illicit funds during his election campaign — a major moment in French political history. Then, Operation Identify Me continues gaining traction in Europe as authorities seek help identifying dozens of murder victims through public appeals and forensic clues. And finally, in China, artificial intelligence is causing mischief — with reports of AI tools being used to alter images and rewrite stories in popular films, raising concerns about truth, censorship, and creative integrity.
