Episode Synopsis

Pippa Hudson speaks to Professor Siona O’Connell — an academic, curator, and filmmaker from the University of Pretoria’s Faculty of Humanities about her new documentary called UnRest. It takes us back to the 2003 discovery of human remains at Prestwich Street in Green Point — a site believed to hold the graves of enslaved and displaced people from the 18th and 19th centuries. Lunch with Pippa Hudson is CapeTalk’s mid-afternoon show.  This 2-hour respite from hard news encourages the audience to take the time to explore, taste, read, and reflect. The show - presented by former journalist, baker and water sports enthusiast Pippa Hudson - is unashamedly lifestyle driven. Popular features include a daily profile interview #OnTheCouch at 1:10 pm. Consumer issues are in the spotlight every Wednesday while the team also unpacks all things related to health, wealth & the environment.  Thank you for listening to a podcast from Lunch with Pippa Hudson  Listen live on Primedia+ weekdays between 13:00 and 15:00 (SA Time) to Lunch with Pippa Hudson broadcast on CapeTalk https://buff.ly/NnFM3Nk  For more from the show, go to https://buff.ly/MdSlWEs or find all the catch-up podcasts here https://buff.ly/fDJWe69  Subscribe to the CapeTalk Daily and Weekly Newsletters https://buff.ly/sbvVZD5  Follow us on social media:  CapeTalk on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CapeTalk CapeTalk on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@capetalk CapeTalk on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ CapeTalk on X: https://x.com/CapeTalk CapeTalk on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CapeTalk567   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
