Listen "Should we rent out Simonstown for bitcoin?"
Episode Synopsis
Is it Cop or cop-out; it's hard to tell. The UN’s Conference of Parties (COP) on climate action and sustainability is currently happening in Baku, Azerbaijan - the second time the conference is taking place in a petro-state. Unsurprisingly, it's currently hard to breathe in Deli. But, on the other hand, bitcoin is booming, raising the question of whether SA should rent out Simonstown, now that SA’s navy is down to a single ship. Other than that, entrepreneur Mark Barnes and Daily Maverick Editor at Large Tim Cohen discuss why cheating on your CV is becoming so prevalent in SA. We don’t discuss the weather at all.Production and Editing by Tevya Turok Shapiro.
