"I still find it difficult to believe that such things existed in some cultures. The scene was depressing and made one uncomfortable. Does this practice still exist in Venda culture, 2025?"

"I think they want to end with a bang. After yesterday's episode, I think all Azwindini's children are gonna die. Rendulalo's child becomes the next chief. Hmm, will this happen before the 11th?"
