No show this week, but thought that it was about time to release the video we took on the 2nd of January 2008 during the Minstrel carnival or Kaapse Klopse, as it is known here too.

Enjoy the dancing, music and other interesting info about this tradition that is entrenched into Cape Town’s history and culture.

Hey folks.

It is time for another video from The ZA Show Podcast.  And believe it or not, but it took me a day to edit it down and have it ready for you.

This is a vid of our roadtrip to and from PodcampSA in Bloemfontein.  Jan Folmer and myself drove up for the event, which is a smashing 1,000km away from Cape Town.  We drove up on Friday and came back on Sunday.

But sharing the views from the road, the Karoo and everything else is what this is all about.
