Monday, 4 August - Credit thieves
On Monday morning, East Coast Breakfast’s Darren, Sky, and Carmen posed a fiery question: "Has a co-worker ever stolen your spotlight?"
Turns out, the answer was a resounding yes. Listeners lit up the phone lines with jaw-dropping (and sometimes hilarious) tales of workplace credit theft.
We heard everything from the sneaky idea snatchers to full-blown project hijackers.

Tuesday, 5 August - We made a millionaire
Did you miss East Coast Breakfast on Tuesday morning? Well, you missed a life-changing moment!
Darren, Sky, and Carmen crowned a brand-new Millionaire in Lottostar’s Fortune Frenzy Competition.

Wednesday, 6 August - The Fin Cup coach wars
If you missed East Coast Breakfast on Wednesday morning, you missed some serious pre-match drama!
With the Fin Cup, powered by Hollywoodbets, kicking off on Sunday, 17 August at Kingsmead Stadium, tensions ran high.
Sky Tshabalala was gunning to mentor the Hollywoodbets Dolphins… but Nick Tatham insisted he’s the man for the job. So, we put it to a vote...
Catch all the action from the podcast below:
Thursday, 7 August - Darren's fights for Fin Cup
On Thursday morning, the votes were in. Sky will be mentoring the Hollywoodbets Sharks, while Nick takes charge of the Hollywoodbets Dolphins.
But poor Darren? He was feeling a little left out. So, in true Darren style, he went straight to the Hollywoodbets Dolphins CEO to ask for a spot on the Fin Cup T20 team.
Did he make the cut? Sadly… no. Don’t worry though. Darren still scored a very “Darren” role for match day.
And trust us, you’ll never guess what it is!

Friday, 8 August - "Actress"; Live at the Hilton Arts Festival

Set in New York and featuring eight original songs, the production is inspired by Talia’s real-life experiences and shines a spotlight on the many roles women navigate, from motherhood to ambitious career goals.
