Welcome to the Misconceptions podcast's debut episode. The main goal of this podcast is to expose and dispel widespread myths in the culture we live in today. These beliefs may or may not be the consequence of ignorance but rather of a worldview that reinforces a particular misconception and discourages the consideration of opposing viewpoints that would undermine it. The JMS 2 Podcasting group, led by Simphiwe Mhlongo, conducted interviews for today's episode, in which the contributors discussed common misconceptions about relationships. Different backgrounds for these thoughts and beliefs are presented by our presenter, Nthabiseng Mokonyane.
Before we start the show, a big thank you and appreciation to the production team that made this show happen today. May this serve as the beginning of many more wonderful things. -

In the pilot episode of The Art of Making Art the host Luphelo, a second-year podcasting student from Rhodes University introduces the audience to the concept of the podcast. As well as the features highlighted in the episode mainly a voxpop complied by her tutor group of clichéd definitions art, a discussion between the team themselves about why they wanted and how they wanted to redefine art and an interview with an anonymous student about how art can be political in nature. The episode is a starting point to compare and contrast different views on art and how it can sometimes be used in ways that doesn’t uplift humanity.
