On-air predictions, tracked to the outcome

Hosts, analysts and callers make calls on air every day — rate cuts, reshuffles, title races. We extract the falsifiable ones from the broadcast transcript, wait for the horizon, and score them against public sources. Every call keeps its audio receipt.

The verdict· graded 11 Oct

Max Verstappen won the 2026 Singapore Grand Prix at Marina Bay ahead of Charles Leclerc's Ferrari, his first victory at the Singapore event.

Three passages, all published 2026-10-11, independently report Verstappen winning the Singapore Grand Prix, which matches both the driver and the date in the claim. Yahoo also notes it was his second straight victory, but that detail has no bearing on this claim.

Makashule Gana · Power FMAired 29 Sept

The verdict· graded 04 Oct

Max Verstappen won the 2026 Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia at Sepang International Circuit on 4 October 2026.

The dated 2026-10-04 passages say Verstappen won the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia at Sepang and did so on 4 October 2026. That matches the claim’s winner, venue, and date.

The verdict· graded 12 Sept

Danny Jordaan was re-elected SAFA president at the elective congress on 12 September 2026.

The research notes say a post-event report on 12 September 2026 reported Sandile Zungu conceded defeat and congratulated Jordaan on his re-election. That directly matches the claim that Jordaan won the SAFA presidential election on that date.

Monji Makaya · Power FMAired 09 Sept

The verdict· graded 13 Sept

South Africa won the 2026 series against New Zealand 3–1, sealing it with a 43–28 win in Baltimore on 12 September 2026. (Corrected by the desk: an earlier manual verdict graded the series off the first Test alone.)

The speaker said the All Blacks would win the series. New Zealand won the first Test 33–16 but lost the next three, so the series went to the Springboks 3–1.

On air · Cape TalkAired 12 Aug

The verdict· graded 07 Sept

Canal+ publicly confirmed the DStv package restructuring on 7 September 2026, including the new package lineup and rollout date.

The claim was that the public confirmation would happen on Monday, 7 September 2026, and the research notes say it did. The notes identify the event as the confirmation point, not just a preview or leak, so the timing and substance both match.

The verdict· graded 06 Sept

Uncanny Alley: A New Day won Outstanding Emerging Media Program at the 2026 Creative Arts Emmys on September 5, 2026.

Rick Treweek’s nominated project did win the Emmy, so the prediction that he would win his nomination was realized. The claim and the outcome match on the specific category and event date.

Clarence Ford · Cape TalkAired 28 Aug

The verdict· graded 06 Sept

South Africa beat New Zealand 29–24 at FNB Stadium on 2026-09-05.

The claim says the Springboks would defeat the All Blacks in that third Test on that date and venue. The match was played and South Africa won 29–24, so the predicted outcome happened exactly as stated.

Custas · 702Aired 31 Aug

The verdict· graded 26 Aug

On 25 August 2026, the three accused in the Reiger Park murder case appeared in the Boksburg Magistrates’ Court and continued their bail application.

The notes explicitly say the accused appeared in court on the specified date for their bail application. That matches the prediction’s date, court appearance, and purpose, so the claim is verified.

Samkele Kuzani · Cape TalkAired 21 Aug

The verdict· graded 26 Aug

New Zealand beat the Lions 41–35 at Ellis Park on 2026-08-25.

The claim was that the Lions would not defeat the All Blacks. The match was completed with New Zealand winning 41–35, so the Lions did not win. That outcome matches the prediction exactly.

How this works: predictions are extracted by AI from machine-generated transcripts of live broadcasts (“as heard on air” — transcription errors are possible), and outcomes are resolved against public sources, linked on each card. Speakers are named only when the broadcast itself identifies them. This page records what was said and what happened. The reader poll is audience sentiment, not odds — no money is involved and there is nothing to wager on. Corrections: [email protected].
