Joining John Maytham to unpack the implications of Grok's Hitler-praising anti-semitism is Professor Steven Boykey Sidley – Professor of Practice at the University of Johannesburg, columnist-at-large for the Daily Maverick, and a partner at Bridge Capital. Sidley has written extensively on the ethics of artificial intelligence and the dangers of unregulated tech.

Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather. The host’s eclectic interests mean the program often surprises the audience with intriguing book reviews and inspiring interviews profiling artists.

A daily highlight is Rapid Fire, just after 5:30pm. CapeTalk fans call in, to stump the presenter with their general knowledge questions. Another firm favourite is the humorous Thursday crossing with award-winning journalist Rebecca Davis, called “Plan B”.
