SABC confirmed in a statement that Real Talk will not return for a fifth season and that repeat episodes will be shown in the timeslot until the end of February.

“The SABC would like to announce that SABC3’s talk show programme Real Talk will not be returning for a 5th season, when the current episodes of Real Talk, which are repeat episodes conclude. The decision was taken following the new direction which the channel will be taking.

“The SABC would like to thank Cheeky Media for their hard work and dedication in delivering Real Talk to SABC3 audiences.”

Following the Violence that has erupted in Zimbabwe, Azania Mosaka took to Social Media to share her thoughts on African leaders.

Azania has also joined in on the conversation, expressing her anger on the corrupt African leaders.

“So many African leaders are their own people’s enemy. Sick and tired of endless corruption, brutality and uninspired leadership with no moral compass! Whether Zim or SA, this week’s news cycle continues to brutalize the heart,” she began.

She then went on to say that “their actions undermine all our effort and dreams. So disillusioned with politics and leaders across the spectrum. What do you do with your vote in the midst of such pathetic conduct?”

Greed, external interference, self-hate, lack of education, no vision…I’m just sick of it because our suffering continues and our dreams and hopes can never be realized this way. https://t.co/7F97BPEpmd

On a lengthy Instagram post Azania Mosaka revealed on her journey of rediscovering herself .

She stated how she had neglected herself and she was tired and unhappy.

This is what she had to say;

From 2011 to early 2017 I prioritized and did things that were not good for me. I neglected my well being. Long days, working hard, often 7 days a week, eating on the run, eating badly, de-stressing over drinks with friends, inconsistent with exercise…had no time to evaluate my life, my relationships, my path. I didn’t even recognize how far I had wondered away from myself. I was building a castle. Had to build a castle (isn’t that the goal?)…just on a treadmill to collapse and exhaustion. I had a drawn out slow crash. Didn’t like the life I was living. I was anxious, tired and unhappy. What Kagiso Msimango describes “as a life of quiet desperation”. No amount of new stilettos could fix it. Or new furniture. Or new project. No relationship could fix it. No amount of dinners, engagements and level of busyness could fix it.
Sounds bleak doesn’t it ?

One step at a time, I went back to the things I love. That filled my spirit. Cleared my home of unnecessary, unused things, went back to the theatre, movies and art. I started replying non-priority messages (I had neglected a few people you see) committed to gym and yoga. Most importantly, I cook, I walk, go on hikes AND I went back to my gardening….An interest many would call ‘boring’. ?
But I accept that I’m ‘boring’ then ?

I see a therapist and do breath work with her to reset and connect my mind, body and soul. (She is in these pics as well). Self-care comes first. Everything else second. Now even when things get difficult, I breathe my way through it. I hope you find your teachers and guides.
Today, thank you to Dr Ela Manga, Nthabi Taukubong @ditauinteriors , Mpho Tshukudu @mphotshukudu_rd Sunlight Extra for an energizing morning.

Azania Mosaka recently let her followers in on her personal life, through a lengthy post shared on social media.

She mentioned how she used to overwork herself, eat unhealthy and neglect working out. When she realized she was not happy, she would have to help herself.

“From 2011 to early 2017 I prioritised and did things that were not good for me. I neglected my wellbeing,” she began.

She added; “Long days, working hard, often 7 days a week, eating on the run, eating badly, de-stressing over drinks with friends, inconsistent with exercise…had no time to evaluate my life, my relationships, my path. I didn’t even recognize how far I had wondered away from myself. I was building a castle. Had to build a castle (isn’t that the goal?)…just on a treadmill to collapse and exhaustion.

It is after evaluating herslef that she decided to do something about it all.

“One step at a time, I went back to the things I love. That filled my spirit. Cleared my home of unnecessary, unused things, went back to the theatre, movies and art.

Most importantly, I cook, I walk, go on hikes AND I went back to my gardening….An interest many would call ‘boring’. But I accept that I’m ‘boring’ then.”

She concluded that to take care of her mental health, she sees a therapist and also does breathing exercises to cope with life’s pressure: “I see a therapist and do breathe work with her to reset and connect my mind, body and soul.

Azania Mosaka has spoken up in solidarity of Cheryl Zondi in the Timothy Omotoso rape trial on the treatment of rape victims

Omotoso and two others face 97 charges, which include human trafficking, sexual assault and rape of female congregants of his Durban-based church.

Cheryl was the first witness to take the stand when the trial got underway at the Port Elizabeth High Court earlier this week. Cheryl has accused Omotoso of raping her since she was 14 years old.

As Cheryl detailed the trauma she allegedly endured, Omotoso’s defence lawyer had tongues wagging for his “unfair questioning”.

“I think we need a re-evaluation of how we deal with rape survivors in this country. Because now the burden of proving even in our legal system is innocent until proven guilty but ultimately it feels like the victim is being put on trial versus the alleged perpetrator,” she said.

Azania labelled the defence lawyer’s questioning “vile”.

Azania Mosaka is back to gracing our TV screens as the new host of Real Talk on SABC3.

She previously hosted the show when Anele Mdoda was on a break. It is here that she was able to wow the audience.

SABC3 Head of Boquet, Aisha Mohamed said, “It’s our pleasure to welcome the eloquent and elegant Azania to the SABC 3 family. We trust that her contribution and enthusiasm will add value to the SABC 3 brand as well as take Real Talk to new heights.”

Interview style

Azania’s interview style is relaxed and conversational. She admits that she has done things that make people think: Are you out of your mind?,” like daring to go from a graveyard slot to drive time.

“Programme Managers have believed in me and I dared to do it and this challenge will be no different. By taking on this unexpected opportunity of hosting Real Talk, I aim to engage in conversations that encourage people to dream, motivating young girls and young women as well as reinvigorating the audience while reminding them of their hopes and aspirations,” enthused Azania Mosaka of her new role.

“Azania is joining an award winning team and we are very excited about what she will be bringing. Having worked with her briefly before, we know that her humility, passion, empathy and grace will be well received by our audience. We look forward to putting the “real” back into real talk. Azania was born to be in front of the camera.” says Yusuf Stevens, Managing Director at Cheeky media.

Audiences can look forward to an hour of engaging television and stimulating conversation on Real Talk, weekdays between 18:00 and 19:00 on SABC 3.

This month, Azania Mosaka will host Real Talk in place of Anele Mdoda.

Mdoda is on a break as Mosaka takes over from Tuesday.

Yesterday, Mosaka talked of how much she missed television.

“I haven’t been on TV in a long time. Funnily enough, at the start of this year, one of the things lingering with me was that maybe it’s time to get in there. I was open to it if it came along.

“So, when Cheeky Media [a production house] came to me and the SABC gave me the thumbs up, I was happy. I didn’t realise how much I missed television as a medium. I wanted the immediate gratification that radio gave me. But, I missed looking into the camera and doing my thing,” she said.

For her, Real Talk will give her a national platform.

“I look forward to engaging with people in Bizana and Lichtenburg. There will be great content. It’s the same show but I will do it my own way and leave my stamp.”

Mosaka will until April 26 on weekdays from 6pm to 7pm on SABC3.

This past weekend saw a Twitter drama involving radio personality Azania Mosaka and her daughter Shamiso.

Shamiso shared shared private information that sparked controversy on Twitter. This was during the Migos’ Culture Tour concert in Jozi, on Saturday. She shared her experience with Migos.

“Quavo just tapped me and asked me to go to his section. I just died. DIED,” she tweeted, adding, “Quavo just fed us alcohol, even if it was stroh, I’d take it.”

The 19-year old reportedly also tweeted about the size of the rappers’ manhoods. Black Twitter responded to her tweets, slut-shaming her. Another man going by the name Zane, went ahead to insinuate that Shamiso was an escort. He tweeted that Shamiso had been called a week prior to the concert to entertain the Migos along with her friends.

Azania came to her daughter’s rescue by defending her against cyber bullies.

“I’m disappointed by how she posted about the experience. I’ve always warned her about the dangers of social media… But I’m appalled by how she is being cyber bullied this morning. Today it’s her but every other day it’s someone else. And it’s wrong,” she tweeted.
