WATCH: Local radio host eats 1kg of Nutella in 30 minutes

Oct 6 2021

Despite apparently not being a big fan of the Italian hazelnut spread, VIBE FM’s Naledi sat down and filmed herself downing an entire 1kg of Nutella. The video was uploaded to IGTV, and it’s just a few minutes less than 30 minutes of Naledi continuously struggling to eat another tablespoon.

The original challenge was to finish the jar off in just 1 hour, but Naledi defied all odds and did it all in 30 minutes. The challenge got harder with every spoonful, using water as the ol’ reliable to help her push through. Naledi ends the video feeling quite sick but triumphant… and probably glad she doesn’t have to go through it again.

The video was received with mixed reactions. Some want to try it out, or simply wish they had the stomach to do so. Some said Naledi is an absolute champion for doing so, while others hinted at her sugar levels skyrocketing. What do you think?

4 plants, 7 grams and cannabis clubs announced by Reforms Minister

Oct 6 2021

Reforms Minister Owen Bonnici announced this morning that cannabis smokers will be able to carry 7 grams of cannabis and grow up to four plants at home in the new proposed cannabis laws. Following the tabling of the Bill on Monday, Bonnici also revealed that cannabis clubs which distribute cannabis among their members will be allowed, but not public smoking. The Minister said that this is not to incentivise a culture of cannabis consumption.

When it comes to possession and cultivation, a person aged over the age of 18 can have up to 7 grams in their possession. They will not be charged in court or face proceedings before a justice commissioner if caught. Police will no longer have the right to detain anyone caught with it. Anyone younger than 18 caught with the plant will face proceedings and be given a care plan.

Private residences will be allowed up to four cannabis plants, but these must be kept out of sight. Smoking around minors will be illegal and will carry a fine of up to €500. Anyone growing cannabis at home will be able to store up to 50 grams of dried plant at home, and the Responsible Cannabis Use Authority will regulate the sector in such a way that it carries out educational outreach stakeholder measures.

In terms of cannabis clubs, up to 7 grams a day can be distributed to each member with a maximum of 50 grams per month. The organisation will be able to distribute 20 cannabis seeds to each member but cannot have more than 500 grams of the plant on their premises at any given time. Any such club cannot be situated within 250 metres of a school.

The organisation must also be registered and authorised by the Responsible Cannabis Use Authority which will have the right to carry out checks on each premises. The clubs will need to disclose the number of members they cater for every three months though they will not need to disclose any names. Legal persons and other legal entities cannot be owners of cannabis clubs.

7 days of rain and a thunderstorm to end the weekend

Oct 6 2021

It’s official – we’ve entered the rainy and stormy season. According to the MET office, the entire week starting today Wednesday 6th October all the way to Tuesday of next week, is characterised with rain showers, whirling winds and the occasional storm.

Showers are expected for today, Friday, Saturday and Monday. Tomorrow, Thursday, is set to bring isolated showers with strong winds. Sunday will seal it all off with a possible thunderstorm, but we won’t be given a break anytime soon.

Temperatures have at least dropped, with the highest today at 28 degrees Celsius dropping to 24 on Sunday. As far as weekend plans go, staying in might be the best option. We know some love to venture out but stay safe considering how much damage the last storm did. Or maybe just whip up some hot beverages, switch on Netflix and let the thunder create some natural atmosphere as you finish off Squid Game.
