MAC G Uncovers the TRUTH Behind The 75K: "People Were Waiting for Us to Fck Up!"**
The cat’s out of the bag! MacG, South Africa’s most beloved podcaster, reveals the REAL story behind the shockwave-inducing R75,000 grant from the Department of Sports, Culture and Arts.
In his latest episode of Podcast and Chill, the iconic presenter drops a bombshell: the grand total was divided equally among the entire crew! That’s right; no lavish spending, no fat cats, just a fair share to keep the creative juices flowing.
"In the two years we didn’t get paid, we were struggling, man," MacG opened up. "So when that R75,000 came along, we were like, ‘This could change our lives!’ We took a fraction of it to upgrade our equipment and the rest – we shared it among ourselves."
The world is still reeling from the news that the ANC government handed the shock sum to MacG, and opinions are sharply divided. But one thing is certain: the podcaster refused to let the controversy define their crew. "People were waiting for us to f**k up, to lose our minds, to squander the money. But we didn’t let it become our story."
As the dust settles on this juicy revelation, one question stands tall: will the government’s generosity reap benefits for the arts community, or are they just throwing money into the wind? Only time (and MacG’s next big reveal) will tell.
