Can't say I have heard him in Afrikaans but Barney Simon I have heard on Jacaranda and although I did not have an issues with him and his show, hearing him speaking Afrikaans is was actually painfull.

I always thought Barney Simon was Afrikaans?

 

I know Alex Jay's Mum was Scottish but not sure if he went to school here or not.

Despite his radio show back in the day... Which was leading edge for SA radio at the time....Barney Simon is still an absolute tool. His MC work at the pixies concert a few years back was agonisingly painful to endure

Thought so. Reason I remember is a long story but one of the comments thrown at him during the rather heated exchange of words was relating to  it.

Don't think he still rides but he surely is still very passionate.
