This week KG & Stephen expose South Africa's most chaotic election moment yet. From the ANC's last-second candidate meltdown to a horrifying series of murders in Kempton Park, exploding tensions around Cape Town's Pride crossing vandalism, and why this entire election has become a TikTok popularity contest.

We're also breaking down our explosive interviews from The Gathering (Daily Maverick's flagship political event) where we caught all the VIPs and exposed the shocking "tiktokification" of South African politics.
