Smart Money podcast reaches 100-interview milestone

Smart Money 100 episodes

From the first interview in 2023, to over 100 episodes at the start of 2026 – Smart Money’s path to becoming South Africa’s leading investing and financial podcast has been impressive.

By achieving over 2 million views in less than three years, one thing has become clear – Smart Money is the podcast to watch if you are interested in finance or investing.

The first-ever episode of Smart Money was with Michael Jordaan – the nationally-renowned venture capitalist, former FNB CEO, and top thought leader.

Within a few months, the list of guests to be interviewed by host Alishia Seckam had grown substantially – featuring top names like:

  • Adrian Gore – Discovery CEO
  • Paul Theron – Vestact Founder and CEO
  • Kevin Brady – A2X CEO
  • Mike Brown – Former Nedbank CEO
  • Shameel Joosub – Vodacom Group CEO

This helped Smart Money quickly become South Africa’s foremost finance and investment podcast.

Now, over 2 million views and 100 episodes later, Smart Money continues to set the standing for engaging financial, business, and investing discussions.

Not only does the podcast offer incredible value to South Africans interested in these fields – it also has become an excellent opportunity for businesses to grow their reputation through thought leadership.
