April 26, 2026 1:53am 19 min

Weather, some say, is fickle. Of course nature is just nature but when you’re on high ground, the mountains, and the weather moves in, the temperature drops in minutes and wind shifts. It is a dangerous place and that’s ...

April 19, 2026 2:51am 22 min

April 12, 2026 2:43am 21 min

April 05, 2026 3:25am 20 min

Episode 266: The Wakkerstroom Boer-Zulu Alliance and the death of Prince Napoleon

March 15, 2026 2:08am 21 min
