**TB CARE ASSOCIATION**
We started off today's show talking to Ria Grant the director of the TB Care Association. She explains the association is an support group offering advice and counselling to those affected by tubercolosis.
She explains the the rate of TB is extremely high in the Western Cape and children are affected by it hugely. They have groups helping in schools and in prisons.
If you are affected with TB or want more information about TB contact the TB Care Association on 021 692 3027
**McCOY MRUBATA**
We were then joined by McCoy Mrubata the jazz great.
Mrubata was born in Langa in the Western Cape and has shared the stage with many jazz greats ranging from Hugh Masekela to Jimmy Dludlu.
After being hugely influenced by music legends Mrubata re-located to Gauteng where he still resides today.
