Wow, if all white people in SA had this guy's mentality and wisdom, South Africa wud be great, love him and thank you for this informative episode RJ❤❤❤❤
You are most welcome
Man just casually spitting jewels, not even trying hard. Easy like a Sunday morning 😂
Great interview
Just like that, when its. in you... It will come out!
I hear you Mr Mokhine. You have the same name as mine Molefe. I know Bo Molefe batseba go araba. This Man is refering us to the past when the place was called Witswatersrand. But to me, he tells us only what we need to hear. A lot will remain hidden.
Big up to John a Real South African.
True true!
He is 100% correct, you just got yourself our south African History book there.
Just because you don't know or hear something for the first time or don't know about or were not exposed to does not mean someone is correct. Brilliant guy but he got a lot of stuff distorted or did not elaborate them correctly. But this is surely a guy you can have a conversation with.Very exposed.
Great guest.
Thank you
Very informative. Thanks John .you represent us very well.We are a rainbow nation.well done brother
True True!
This was great . Always learning something new about my country.
That it was. He has a wealth of knowledge
He forgot to mention that, the same people that left are coming back in numbers. It's no easy for them out there.
There's nothing like home🤣🤣🤣
God gave a true South African Mr Jones🙏🏽 🇿🇦 . The most insightful, objective and educational interview thus far 👌🏾
i wish the clip was long, i would part 2 of it if possible, very very informative
Excellent interview! John provided a wealth of information. I thoroughly enjoyed the conversation. I definitely plan to purchase the book in the future. Great job guys.
Why thank you Unc and that he did
Amazing content. Love how knowledgeable my South African brother is.
I appreciate that and true quite awesome
Wow, this interview was so informative, We need part 2
hahahahahaha
Credle of the human is a grt place. You need to museum and the caves. I took my family there when I visited SA in 2022.
We will be there in a couple of weeks
Very informative, thanks for sharing
but most people who left South Africa before they r returning back to South Africa
Returning in numbers, UK, Australia, New Zealand are not that rosey, no place like home. They sold their stuff, return and start all over.😊
He is pure gold...spitting facts
That he was!
Great interview. I like seeing different aspects of our country from different people. About the American entertainment, I can only speak on what I remember about black American TV specifically. It was banned in SA because it gave black people a picture of and a hope for comfortable, affluent, happy black families (e.g.: The Cosby Show, All in the Family, The Jeffersons, Family Matters were all banned) so when we finally had democracy, we lapped up every single black family comedy we could consume. Anything they played at 7pm during dinner time we would all sit and watch as a family. It became part of the ‘rainbow nation’ PR along with SABC 1’s “Simunye, we are one” slogan. We were really inspired by what we could have and how we could live. First we watched the Cosby show, then Family Matters, Living Single, Martin, The Bernie Mac Show, Hanging with Mr Cooper, City Guys, The Steve Harvey Show, Fresh Prince… literally everything post 1989 we watched daily at 7pm!
This is incorrect I grew up in the 80s , we had Bill Cosby, Webster, Family Matters, Melba and others in the 80s that was centred on black families.
Your information about The Cosby Show being banned in SA is fake news. We watched all these shows in the 1980's.
Ricky thank you for sharing John with us. This was a really great and informative sit down interview. I learned a lot about SA. This will definitely help me when I move there next year.
Very insightful 👏🏿
This podcast was one of the best, ever. Thanks Ricky so much! But, what I don't get about SA is a lot of African Americans (with money, like me) would love to come and support S A but the visa process (unlike Ghana, which is booming with AA's) makes it hard to get in. To get there is an FBI check and it takes a good amount of money. I can understand caution for good character, but, AA's with at least one million rands on hand, and R345 600 a year in retirement are rejected. If a visa is created to aid African Americans to come to South Africa (johannesburg) to live, buy, create and invest more could come. I would even sell my beautiful home and buy one there. Thank you and your guest again for an outstanding podcast. Michelle
Where did all that information from ? Just made up ?
That's totally inaccurate.
Interesting. I've put it to a friend of mine who works at the relevant department that the need to facilitate arrivals of people who can help us grow.
@@JohnOstrowick thank you!
True. As a South African I did not know how the visa rules look like. But blame the USA goverment too. We South Africans can't come there without a visa.
But we can visit Bahamas, Jamaica, Cuba, Agentina, The British Virgin islands, Brazil by passport only. I as a black South African it is also difficult for me to visit the state's because of your country Visa restrictions.
The two governments bureaucracies has to be blamed. America is sceptical about us South Africans.
Excellent analysis by your guest there.
Ceasors Palace is Emporers palace.
copy that
Very insightful and chilled guy. 👌
True true, there's a wealth of knowledge here for sure
Very informational
wow keep them coming ....
John should be the Minister of intelligence.
Haha thanks!
Regarding pizza , Try Piza E vino as well , is one of my favourite
Definitely. Colcacchio's also.
John for President.
hahahahha, nice
Lol I need to work quite a lot harder to deserve that, but thanks.
Off WHOSE backs! BARS! This man is the truth!
OK so I finally was reminded which Witsie was murdered by the Apartheid State: David Webster. Shot while getting his mail in 1989.
U should have a Instagram,tik Tok, twitter account I believe ppl like u could be a bridge for so many people who are ignorant about what was discussed here
Very informative ❤
Wow !!! Amazing content..
He had it all!
Im so glad i found this video ..I was thinking of visiting Jburg to live after watching this video my mind is made up I will be visiting soon
oh wow, nice! where are you visiting from?
@@THEJONESFAMILYCHANNEL Cleveland Ohio, I think I just emailed you check ur email
have you tried mageu drink?
Best interview yet. I was abit scaptical in the beginning, but the guy is an intellectual. I disagree with his philosophy of evolution, that is a downside of being an intellectual, you lose faith and try to analyse everything.
The layed backness is me in my marriage and my husband is the I want to do everything now guy 😂
hahahhaha, there's usually that balance
South african history from Anglo boer war,apartheid into democratic transition ,doesn't get better.
I don’t carry my ID , I don’t even know where it is , 🤣
Yeah I am referring to things like drivers' license as well...
@@JohnOstrowick yeh noted , great chit chat with Jnr you are a true Patriot 🇿🇦 learned a lot from you
What’s the name of his book?
Insider's Guide to Johannesburg. It's mentioned in the comments below the video.
Please don't pick up too many of our American ways. I'm going to try the pizza in SA and see if it's really pizza bc I wasn't raised on Pizza Hut. I was raised on handmade NY Pizza so we'll see. Do ya'll have indoor racquetball?
You can ask for less cheese and some places you can ask for a thick base but the default is a thin base and lots of mozzarella. NY pizza I believe is ok, from what I hear. By racquetball I assume you mean what the British call squash. Yes. A google returns about 292 000 results for joburg.
@@JohnOstrowick Thank you. I didn't know racquetball was also called squash. It's good to know the alternative terms.
Bro, are you not worried about having so many different people in your home?
hahahahaha it definitely was a thought at first however its my start until we in a studio!
love the podcast. But Zim has 16 million people. Doesn't take away his point though
Thanks for the correction!! I think I was thinking of the numbers inside SA. But could be totally wrong on that anyway.
Very intelligent guy but some facts were distorted or let me so not truthful or correct. But a very brilliant guy
Hi: I wanna differ with him concerning him saying, The word "Rainbow nation" is miscospeting people that we South Africans has no problems.
The Rianbow nation is in simple terms that we are people with different colours, languages, cultures and e.t.c. It does not talk about our problems.
Nelson Mandela was saying that sothat all of us must see ourselves as one Rainbow. A rainbow is united in its colours. I don't know were does this "problems"thing comes from.
Nelson Mandela wanted to unite all south africans people, But some white people thought they will loose their superiority.
I agree with the guest speaker; The Rainbow Nation metaphor is used to describe our diversity on a superficial level, assuming that we all became one equal nation in '94. However, it fails to recognize that we did not all start on an equal playing field and our need to heal and overcome our problems, such as inequality, that still persist along racial lines.
It was Desmond Tutu that coined that phrase not Mandela
@@craiganderson3687 Thank you for rectification. That man seem not to understand why the name " "Raibownation" was meant for. He does not to believe in the phrase. Listen to the video attentively and carefully.
@@viudelaan Rainbow is a simple term that said that we are one nation United in our diversity. It does not say we are all eguals which we are still fighting to become. It only describes the colours of the nation which you can compare to the rainbow in simple terms. It is just a foundation and other things will come thereafter.
@@molefejappie3284 hence I said in my initial comment that the dude is so ANC brainwashed. He also has lots of facts screwed up. He comes across as a "Woke" with White guilt and seems to want to say the right things to please whoever is willing to listen. You are correct as to why the phrase "Rainbow Nation came about. It was Tutu who described us as such as we are a beautiful people that come with all shades of the rainbow, all religions and creeds. We speak multiple languages with many ethnic and cultural backgrounds but we are One Rainbow Nation. I think the dude loves the Word Rainbow 🌈 becoz he "identifies" with the Alphabet People 😆
He's right, we know a lot of American stuff.
Lol, Who in his right mind would watch British content? Its torture.
British humour is much better than the American
@@craiganderson3687 not for me, I guess we like different things.
@@siyabonganxumalo4574 but in honesty America has given the world the Best movie features that has shaped the world of cinema and inspired the world to follow suit
I actually love it its brilliant it is different to the US start with Downton Abbey you will regret it took so long to catch up.
@@bonganibophela2819 what's funny about British humour is that it has a very dry sarcastic way which makes it really funny.... American humour is more slap stick and staged...they are the best at Motion pictures though...the big stuff...South AFricans identify a lot with America as we have been exposed to much of their television growing up.. Remember in the Eighties we even watched German TV dubbed into English and Afrikaans...back then the SABC bought a lot of content from the US, UK and some German too. So we as SAns are very well versed and knowledgeable in their culture
I agree with this guy 80%, we only differ on two things.. He's a liberal lefties and an unbeliever.. I'm the opposite.. I would vote for Trump if I were an American and bring back prayers and Biblical studies at schools...I wish all white South Africans were like him.. I like him a lot.
