2026/11/06
PART 2
The Gareth Cliff Show | South African Elections & Coalitions, US Stock Market Loss, Legal Betting with BetMatch | 6 November 2026
Gareth Cliff went live on Friday 6 November 2026 with the South African elections, the US stock market loss, and the odds on how the world’s elections are going. Leigh Ann Moll joined the show too and shocked the comments section.
Chris Hart of Impact Africa joins Gareth to work through the coalitions that could come out of the South African elections, from who could partner with whom to what each combination would mean for the country. The vote count was still under way, so everything discussed is conjecture until the final results are in.
Nick French of BetMatch talks about legal betting in South Africa and how to bet responsibly. He explains what to look for in a licensed bookmaker and why it’s important to set limits and to treat betting as entertainment rather than income. Find out more at betmatch.co.za.
We also gave away some money sponsored by the amazing team at The Gas Company

TD Markets were live in studio, and the biggest talking point was yesterday’s US stock market loss. They explain what happened on Wall Street, what it could mean for South African investors and the rand, and how to trade safely.

PART 2
The Gareth Cliff Show | Ben’s Back, Big Gas & Ballot Boxes, Corne Mulder (Freedom Front Plus), Mankwe Gametrackers | 30 October 2026
TD Markets trading educators Tshepo Makaodi and Ashley Reeve go through the week’s market headlines, including interest rates and inflation, gold hitting $4,000, and Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and Cardano. They also cover the companies making news locally and internationally. TD Markets is now part of the CXM group, which they say brings international-level infrastructure to its African clients.
Phumeza Ngwe, Operations Manager at Mankwe Gametrackers (part of Tourvest), tells the story of the Sun City and Pilanesberg adventure operator that has been running since 1979. You’ll hear about Big Five game drives, hot air balloon safaris and adrenaline activities, the milestones that have kept it going for more than four decades, and what’s next for tourism in South Africa.

And Part 2 of our Conversations with the Team at CohesionX,
AI Farmer: Putting an Agricultural Expert in Every Farmer’s Pocket |
South Africa has roughly one agricultural extension officer for every 2,500 farmers. Francois Rossouw, CEO of the Southern Africa Agricultural Initiative (SAAI), explains how AI Farmer closes that gap. It’s a conversational AI advisor built with CohesionX and trained on 8,500 agricultural subcategories. Farmers can speak to it in their own language about livestock disease, pests, irrigation and product application. In one case it traced a goat die-off in the Eastern Cape to a poisoned water source, after two 1,800 km vet trips had failed to find the cause.
Recorded at the CohesionX offices in Pretoria, the conversation also covers why so many AI projects get abandoned, why Francois gives any new AI project three months to show value, and how SAAI staff use the same tools inside the business.
