I have dedicated 6 years of my life to Bush Radio. Not just because I have been passionate about the medium but also because working in the community sector has made me so much more compassionate about people and the community in general And I feel so many youngsters will be robbed of this opportunity if community media ceases to exist. And in all honesty the last few years I have been ploughing the ground of the community fields only cultivate more passionate youngsters to get into community media and find their way in this industry. It's been my way of giving back to the station that has stood behind me and believed in me when nobody else did. And I would love to see the new wave of youngsters have the same opportunities that I had upon coming to Bush Radio 6 years. So when you see me dont see me as a reflection of Bush Radios position but as a young man that is helping the station sustain itself so that I can be part of the change in the media industry today and for the years to come. Thank you for the opportunity @bushradio https://bushradio.wordpress.com/2019/10/08/the-end-of-revolutionary-radio-in-south-africa/ #MRMEYER🌎🇿🇦☝️💯🏅 #BushRadio895FM #SABCInterviewPrep 📷 : @alouw#Repost @alouw (@get_repost) ・・・ Hand up, not handouts - @yuzriq being prepped for his #sabc #tv #news interview on community radio, @bushradio #crowdfunding and the importance of helping the next crop of trainees. #aroundtheoffice#Repost @atiyyahkhan ・・・ Catch me on Bush Radio today talking about the slow death of arts journalism in SA, the culture of reviewing, media coverage & performance arts.

I couldn't chat at the time but sent him this message. (made public with his permission due to the significance of today) Sorry I didn't have time to explain what happened with the woman that came to Bush yesterday when you called. It was triggering and I'm still learning to deal with situations like that - also it left me sad, I know of so many in the same position as her. I spoke with her for about 20+ minutes. In my opinion she needs some assistance. Too often mental illness is just referred to as "jy's mal" The link with mental illness and homelessness is also a huge problem in our communities - we are ill-equipped to deal with both sometimes. Culture and society doesn't make it any easier to confront mental health issues. I sat in the meeting with her, with ****** as a witness and I listened to her, asked her some questions and gave her some time to answer. She said she has visited many other radio stations in Cape Town and was chased away - people calling her mad and psychotic. While we talking I said to her that I am unable to give her the answers she is looking for. I called Cape Mental Health and got her an appointment for today at 12 with a social worker. I spoke to ****** at Cape Mental Health, at no point while the woman was her did I indicate that I'm calling them. After she left I called back and briefed ****** properly, she advised that if the woman doesn't show up today at their office and comes to Bush again, we should call her and perhaps she can get a field worker to get here. Anyway the lesson for all of us at Bush is that we must remember the saying Zane taught us when it comes to dealing with people: "Let everything you do, say and think be guided by 90% compassion" - not fucking easy to live up to though. When I said goodbye to her, she thanked me just for listening even though I couldn't give her the answers. With all that is going on in her head, listening to your show and Dr Bell gives her some comfort. 10 October is #worldsmentalhealthday"In the small meeting room buried deep within Bush Radio's second-floor offices on Victoria Road in Salt River, central Cape Town, and lying alongside an ancient Zenith Trans-Oceanic analog radio are two maroon leather cases. These cases are marked with the iconic golden dog and gramophone logo of His Master's Voice, formerly the Victor Talking Machine Company. These cases contain original recordings of speeches, debates, poetry, and music performed by South African anti-apartheid activists-those deemed so dangerous that they were banned from gathering or speaking publicly by the then-government."
