You know it’s winter in Johannesburg when the first words out of everyone’s mouth — no matter the time of day — are “Sho, it’s cold, hey?” And if you tuned into HOT 102.7FM’s Top 10 Tuesday this week, you’ll know Simon took us straight into the heart of that uniquely Jozi winter experience.

From icy doorknobs that give you a brief glimpse of the afterlife, to jackets older than your friendships, Simon’s countdown of the “Top 10 Signs It’s Winter in Johannesburg” had Parky and Bunny in stitches — and listeners nodding in chilly agreement.

The segment touched on everything from braving the darkness of 6am wake-ups to the deep betrayal of sunshine that looks warm but offers nothing but false hope. And let’s not forget the familiar fashion trend — every morning jogger now resembling an Arctic explorer, and every dog demanding a jersey (while your Brakpan uncle continues to braai shirtless, of course).

This week’s Top 10 Tuesday didn’t just make us laugh — it reminded us of all the things that make winter in Joburg hilariously relatable. Whether it’s cracked skin, decorative sunshine, or that one unwashed jacket you swore you’d clean last August, we’ve all been there.
