• 0:03
  Speaker 2: Hey, wake up!
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Anele and the Club on 947.
• 0:06
  Speaker 3: My question to you was, who ruined the surprise? Did
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: you want to tell someone else that you got promoted
• 0:13
  Speaker 3: and then somebody ruined the surprise? Maybe you wanted to
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: gather the family around for a gender reveal and then
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: your mother-in-law let everyone know, oh, she cannot wait to
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: meet her grandson. Maybe you were going to propose.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: Somebody ruined the surprise. Something as little as a birthday
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: party surprise.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: And somebody ruined the surprise.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: Oh, my soul, my mother.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: She feels the need to tell me everything.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: And she ruined my 30th birthday surprise and kept running
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: stuff by me like I was part of the planning committee.
• 0:51
  Speaker 5: So we've been planning a surprise party for my mom
• 0:54
  Speaker 5: since the beginning of the year. It's the month she
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: retires and it's her birthday month. So it's a quite,
• 1:00
  Speaker 5: quite a special one. We looped in my dad because
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: he's close to her and everyone lives outside of the province,
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: which is KZN. My dad struggled for three weeks with
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: this secret and he then told my mom.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: I just, I can't anymore woman, I can't, they're planning
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: a party for you.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Here's the trick about surprise parties and surprise events, by
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: the way. Don't organize it too far ahead of time.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: And sometimes the surprise party should be a surprise party
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: to some other people outside of the birthday person as well.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: Because those people will ruin it. And sometimes some people
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: are just haters.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: So when was your birthday? Last week, right?
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Correct. Correct.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: So Ryan and I planned this whole thing. Okay, we're
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: going to do a cake. We want the cake to
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: be boiled eggs because Frankie's got an intricate, interesting relationship
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: with boiled eggs.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Which, by the way, everyone in the country enjoyed immensely.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: Because Ryan's mom took boiled eggs to a bring-and-bry.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Frankie had a meltdown.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: So for his cake, we decided we're going to make
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: him a cake that looks like boiled eggs. Amazing stuff.
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: Then.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: We are now standing in our room. We're about to
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: come onto the show at like five to six in
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: the morning. Cindy comes and she walks past on the
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: way to do news.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: And then she's like, oh, wait.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: And then she walks in.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: In my mind, I get it. She's coming to say
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: happy birthday to Frankie. No danger. But she did. So,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, everyone had said happy birthday in the morning
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: before the show, right?
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: 15th of September. No danger.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Come say happy birthday. Correct. Hi, Frankie.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: Happy birthday. I didn't forget it was your birthday. And
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: then I saw Ryan carrying the box out of his car.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: But I'm like looking at her. And the more she talks,
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: I tilt my head like to the right. And my
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: eyes get wider to be like, what the hell do
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: you mean?
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: So, obviously, we have a tradition with the team and
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: with everyone that you get a cake on your birthday.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: And that cake can be... Because Ryan organizes the stuff,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: so you can imagine it can be anything from a
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: beautiful black forest from the spar through to some kind
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: of a... The cake is a grappie. The cake is
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: always a joke. It's always a grappie, right?
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: But then.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: Cindy ruins it and tells Frankie that we've got a
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: cake waiting for him.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: No, okay, so to be fair and in her defense.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: Don't be fair.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: So she mentions the cake, but then I could see
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: you looking at her. She sees you looking at her.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: She goes, what? He obviously knows he's getting a cake.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: He doesn't know which cake. And actually, she didn't ruin
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: the surprise because I had no clue you guys were
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: going to do this bizarre boiled egg cake for me.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing. The surprise was ruined.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: So now we know one family member of Anneli and
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: the Club to not tell anything, Cindy, because.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: She can't keep a secret. There are many family members
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: on Anele in the club who can't keep secrets. Who
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: are they?
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: 011-8838-947.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Send us a voice note.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: 084-00-00947.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Are you going to out yourself?
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah. The question Anele is asking is who ruined the surprise?
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: In what surprise was it, right? For you personally. A
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: colleague of ours? On this show, I have to out myself. Ryan...
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: says something to us in confidence at the breakfast table.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: He says, Matt Flax is getting engaged, right? And he's
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: been planning this thing.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: And then Matt Flax says, please don't tell him, you know.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So Matt Flax says, obviously Ryan finds out. And
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: then Matt Flax says to him, Ryan, please don't tell anyone.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: And we literally, we were having breakfast and on my
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: way out the building in the parking lot, I run
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: into Matt Flax and I look at him and I say, congratulations.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: And he looks at me, Matt Flax looks at me,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: because he doesn't know what, obviously Hina thinks it's a secret.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: He looks at me and says, for what? I said,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: and then I click that we're not supposed to say anything.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: And so I just go, for being alive. And then
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: I walk off. So Matt Flax takes the elevator up.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Goes straight to Ryan.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: And he goes.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Thanks for nothing.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: In the elevator, he realizes what's just happened, because he
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: knows Ryan, me, the show, the secret. He goes, thanks
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: for nothing, Ryan. 011-8838-947-08400-00947. Who ruined the surprise?
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: Let's go to Mo Barton.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Jade, who ruined the surprise? Hi, guys. Hi. First time
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: on the radio. Welcome. Surprise.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Who ruined the surprise?
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: So I had this very close friend and I was
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: pregnant with my three-year-old. He's three now and I have
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: a nine-year-old. So I was very stressed as to when
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: am I going to get baby stuff? How am I
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: going to get baby stuff? So eight months into my pregnancy,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: my friend calls me and she's like, oh my gosh,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: you're pregnant and you're having a baby shower.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: That friend's a hater.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so nonetheless, on the 5th of August 2023, I
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: had to act all surprised that I'm having a baby shower.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Oh my word. So hang on, this person who said that,
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: was she at the baby shower?
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: She was.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: So she's watching you act like.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, she's watching me acting all surprised. In the meantime,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: I knew I had a baby shower coming.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Where's the friend right now?
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: She works at Discovery. She's at work.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, she's at work. Discovery.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: Ruining other people's surprises at Discovery.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: Of course.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: Jade, thank you so much for your call. We're going
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: to Ralph quickly in Edenville.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Ralph.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: Good morning.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: We're good, Ralph.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: How are you?
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: I'm awesome. Thank you.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: It was your father-in-law, hey?
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: It was my father-in-law. You know. I was actually planning
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: an engagement. He knew, everyone knew because I asked for
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: her hand in marriage, obviously. And then on, I think
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: we got engaged in July. But before that, during the
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: planning phase, she wanted all her close people, her friends,
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: her family. So I couldn't text each and every one
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: of them individually. So I texted her best friend and
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: I said, look, you can reach out to these people.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: You know them.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: And I'll just focus on planning everything else. think two
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: weeks or three weeks before the engagement her dad calls
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: her and says oh look your sister had from your
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: best friend that you're getting engaged on this day and
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: this is how it's going to happen and just ruin
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: the entire thing.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: No i mean now you know now you know because
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: now he's now your dad now you know that there's
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: just certain things that you can't tell him.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: At all yeah no 100 100 and if i'm planning
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: a surprise now i just keep it to myself absolutely.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah I'd be so cross. You sound so calm about this.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: This is the biggest surprise ever that's been ruined. What
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: surprise are you planning that could ever be bigger than this?
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Are you going to be angry at your father-in-law?
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, you've got to do what you've got to do.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: What are you going to do?
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Are you going to deck him? Are you going to
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: tackle him? I'd get my own back if I was you, Ralph.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: I'm actually very calm about it. I actually laughed, you know,
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: more than anything. I just took it lightly and I
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: laughed it off and I said, you know what, we'll
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: plan something else.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: That man, if that was my father-in-law, that man would
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: never get a medium rare steak ever in his life again.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Everything would be super well done. Exactly. Oh, sorry, father-in-law.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Here's your steak. Goonk, goonk on the plate.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: Because when he's too busy chewing, he can't ruin any
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: more surprises now, can he?
