Another couple from the US i enjoyed seeing! Truth be told, the South is just as safe as the North...SA is safer now than it was a decade ago and things can only get better from here on end. This is your home, settle wherever you feel comfortable.
Thanks. ☺️Maybe we will share in a video one day how we have applied in our lives 🤔 to enhance stability over the years, especially from an economic perspective in this challenging world, particularly in the ultra-competitive (and sometimes “cut-throat”) society that is the U.S. Such info can be surely useful when applied anywhere else in the world.
Perfect choice! A true hidden gem, the views are incredible compared to the north. Especially the Glenvista, Winchester hills, Mulbarton areas. It reminds me of Hollywood hills🇿🇦💞
Ya know..☝🏾😄 Oddly, that was the vibe I got (and get) when driving through and looking out over Mulbarton. I think about how we see Hollywood Hills homes in the U.S. in the tens of millions of dollars and the exclusivity of it all. Yet, you have the same type of vibe accessible right there in SA, for the everyday person. By everyday I mean not having to be a “celebrity” or wealthy from “old money”. I realize we still have SO much to learn in that regard, so I will not speculate too much at this point. It is touchable and a real-life experience there, and I enjoy that. It does something for the mind.
Ey man. Please attend the Bucs and Chiefs game. I'm a Chiefs fan and I hate that t-shirt you're wearing, very ugly😂. But love you guys. Can't wait to have you back and seeing the match video.
I tell you all (🙄 and this is of course “Me” speaking, surprise surprise) 🤗🤭, I’m really gonna have to find a spot over there that has amateur standup comedy in an “open-mic” format that I can get onstage and cut my chops when on the ground there. This FOOTBALL thing and my experiences with these jerseys provide a LOT of material for a brotha to get onstage there and riff about! 😂 I will very likely look to do that at some point. 🤔
Welcome to Mzansi guys ...enjoy yourselves and I respect your life choices and soccer jerseys😂😂. Looking forward to a great and rruitful engagements in SA ...Peace and love❤
Thank you for this video.. and your perspective on Jobug South.. i did fall in the narrative of the Sandton Rosebank area but never been to The south as i based myself of what was said about it.. therefore i need to go see for myself
Greetings from Sweden! I appreciate how warmly you and your wife have embraced my beloved South Africa, Mzansi. Regarding the soccer team jersey issue-wear whatever suits you, bro, even though I’m a Kaizer Chiefs fan! What truly matters is that South Africa is your home now. Welcome home to you and your beautiful wife!
Cool. Spent a day in Stocklholm this past summer!😁 Took an excursion while on a visit to Copenhagen, Denmark with my son. Caught the Arlanda Express and stayed down in central district. Beautiful, pleasant city. Appreciate you checking us out!
@NtombizodwaZodwa-nr6il I notice this is your second comment to one of our videos of this nature. Your first comment was on another video concerning the relationship between my daughter and I. Is there some issue with you regarding this? You seem to gravitate to that line of “humor”. One thing I do not tolerate is disrespect from people regarding my family, and I do hope you can see how such out of the blue commentary more than once can come off as disrespectful. Take note fam, as I am all for fun, but I also am no joke.
Kancane Kancane. 🤏🏾 Keep in mind though these platforms will allow for translation of comments from time to time if they detect the language is different from that of post originating country. But yes, the previous comment of suggesting I was my daughter’s boyfriend when it is clear I am her father. Then to return with your latest comment. I’m just trying to get a sense of your motivation for saying such things? 🤷🏾♂️ Umndeni…I have been in this game a long time with my wife - standing on business as a man, raising a dynamic daughter and son. My “mother” is deceased and I have long stood as a man for many decades now. That’s all I’m saying. Uthando Umndeni. Let’s keep it cool.
Forget the other teams, if you want peace with everyone and are allowed in each ones soccer team - your kit will have to be Bloemfontein Celtics - Siwelele (Green and White soccer jersey). Their no longer in the PSL, but much respect to their supporters for keeping their legacy alive. First time Watching, great content and thanks for sharing.
ok I have to admit that it has taken me a little bit to make sense of this comment. 🙄 I did not get it at first. After a long thought about it, I DO now. You guys are brutal. 🥴😮💨🤦🏾♂️
The fact that you have 2 Sundowns jerseys, tells me that you're gravitating towards Sundowns. Being in South of Joburg should not stop you from supporting a Pretoria football team 😂 Please join Sundowns, you will not regret it!
I have to be honest with you. I am not as big a fan of the Sundowns fluorescent yellow (which I understand is the “home” jersey). Reason is…the color scheme is far too similar to what countries like Brazil (almost exact copy) 🙄, Jamaica, and other Caribbean nations in the Americas wear. 🤔💡Something about us Black people and that bright yellow and green! 🤦🏾♂️ I guess it does confirm our interconnectedness as a People, regardless of where we exist in the Diaspora. I did snatch up the yellow after giving up on not finding a Bucs jersey (which ironically I saw at the last second at Studio8, making our way out of Mall Of Africa). 🥴 Well, the stores got extra patronage from me that day. 😄The electric blue Downs piece is the🔥one though. 👌🏾🤤I have had that one for a minute…
Mamelodi sundowns 👆👆👆👆👆👆👆 7 times primier league champions back to back. Greatest team greatest jersey. Others just talk to much they ain't on top. We are. Kabo yellow that's the slogan.
Yes. 😂 They are very much like the Golden State Warriors of the U.S. (or New England Patriots during their many years of runs). Dynasties get a lot of hate. They can always attract the best players because of the winning legacy and deep pockets. It feeds upon itself.
I was in such a good mood till I saw that hideous jersey for that makeshift team from Pretoria 😂😂😂. Is this you bro? Is this how you roll??? Nah fam... Anyway it's all love brother 😂😂😂
That jersey from an elite team, good choice. When you wear the Pirates jersey Chiefs fans are going to comment, when you put on a Pirates jersey Chiefs fans are not going to be happy but put on a Sundowns jersey both fans are going to hate you 🤣🤣🤣
You are obviously a great “mathematician”, 🧠because those are the same calculations I pretty much made with this thing. 🤔 It certainly stirs things up. 😮💨🤦🏾♂️
What is unique with SA is, during a derby match between Pirates and Chiefs, you will see couples holding hands while one is wearing Chiefs jersey and the other wearing a Pirates jersey, indicating team loyalty even through marriage.
Hey…they can be “lovable losers”! 😂 Some of our most beloved professional sports teams in the U.S. had extremely long stints of time where they did not win. My hometown of Chicago (the Cubs) went without a championship for like…100 years! 🥴🤦🏾♂️ Yet, one of the most celebrated franchises. Another one in football - the Oakland Raiders.
Tell me about it!! 😮💨🤦🏾♂️Chiefs are gonna have to step it up in ranking though in order to make more of a case it seems. We see it even in the U.S. with certain clubs. It’s a lot easier to be and stay at the top when your organization has deeper pockets than the next. 🤑 So I certainly get why Sundowns gets all the hate.
It would certainly convince Mel. She is a 😳NOTORIOUS bandwagon jumper, and she is unapologetic about it! 😂 She will literally claim to be a fan of one team at the start of a game or match. THEN, she will totally flip if the opposite team begins to run away with things. She does this during playoff and championship season for football and basketball teams. Blows me away that she does this. 😮💨🤦🏾♂️
Get the lady a Springboks jersey or the Dr Khumalo football jersey from the Old School website. Those are the only neutral jerseys because they’re our national teams. 😂 Thank me later.
@ Great! But at the end of the day, the chirping is just playful fun. You can wear any jersey you think looks good. Although the Old School Doctor Khumalo jersey is quite nice, it’s a remake of our 90s national football jersey, and a lot of people are getting them.
Now that jersey is not the right one. Please get yourself a Buccaneer (Skull and bones) black and white jersey. Advice from me before I view your post...😂😂😂
If you have not, check this fairly recent vid. It goes one better, with the super dope AQUA version. th-cam.com/video/3FJS4D-g05c/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2jdZeUfryOuDMboa
Ola brothet dont be confused by chiefs pirates fans u chose your favourite team ! Sundowns is the best team in Africa! Dont listen to shallow minded people pretending to be soccer fans! Dignified sportsman dont utter words like them! They are not TRUE sport lovers! They are grudgy
I will be totally honest with you when I say this. Mel and me don’t do this for subscribers, though we truly appreciate those who appreciate the information and stories we share. We are far more concerned with tapping into the culture and the fullness of the people as we lean into our journey. If the rivalry between football clubs is such to where an individual would take it SO personally to where they have a negative reaction to us and not support our channel, then that is a subscriber I am willing to live without. I am huge on the idea that we should try to operate with a certain level of emotional intelligence. As such, I put a lot of energy into providing context for people in our displays and explanations. Thankfully, we have zero financial motive for this channel, and as such it provides us a certain level of freedom to just be GENUINE with people without the pressures of trying to pull in subscribers to make money. That is most important to us. I can never even remember to remind people to “Like,share, or subscribe” to the channel anyway!🤷🏾♂️😂 It further demonstrates the level of importance I personally place onto it. We do appreciate and understand your sentiment though. 🫱🏾🫲🏿
Bro why wear that "construction reflector vest" excuse for jersey?😅😅😂 The Khosi✌️ jersey will look good on you and family😂😂😂 the other ones makes you look like a tourist😂😂 come on make the right choice bro😅😅😅
Football (soccer), rugby and cricket tops are called jerseys, not t-shirts, even if they're short sleeves. C'mon South Africans, stop this now. ❤ from CPT, SA
You know…🤔 silently, I wondered to myself why so many have referred to them as “t-shirts”(especially given the fact that these “official” ones are SO DAMNED EXPENSIVE)! 🥴😂 At any rate, I just take it for what it’s worth and not make too big a deal about it. 🤷🏾♂️ It’s all in fun. 🫶🏾

Jersey looks good on you. Honestly thought you guys were south africans😃... Get all the jerseys n keep it moving. Greetings from KZN 🖖🏾.
It’s sort of becoming a bit of a hobby for me, I think. 😏
Yes we have 16 teams in the premier league. Nothing wrong with showing love to different teams with their different jerseys
It’s actually quite fun to do so. For outsiders and our exposure, a huge win for SA as a whole! 🇿🇦 Mzansi stand up!
What you need to catch is the Soweto derby, one coming in February
Duly noted!😉👍🏾
As an Orlando Pirates fan , the only team we recognise in the league is Sundowns 😅😅.
