Controversial podcaster MacG is not afraid to get cancelled. The star faced immense backlash over his remarks about Minnie Dlamini's feminine hygiene. On the latest episode of Podcast and Chill, he and his co-host, Sol Phenduka, laughed and seemed unbothered by the noise.

MacG speaks about cancel culture

In a viral X clip teasing the upcoming episode of Podcast and Chill, fans got a taste of what's to come. The highly anticipated episode came after MacG and Sol Phenduka were summoned to Parliament over their comments about Minnie Dlamini.

Sol Phenduka joked about being summoned to parliament, saying they are now honourable speakers. “You guys better recognise. There are levels to this podcasting thing.”

MacG laughed and said he wished that they could get cancelled frequently. “Dog, I wish I could get cancelled every week!” he exclaimed.

The controversial podcaster further said he does not feel threatened by celebrities because they have not done anything for him.

“I’m not intimidated by these celebrities, screw all of them. They’ve done nothing for me.”

In the episode, MacG further said he would gladly step down as the host of Podcast and Chill if their subscribers asked him to. However, because peeps still love them and their show, "we are rocking!"

The two also discussed Cassper Nyovest and how he ignored Sol Phenduka and went viral for it.

"He trended because of me...because of that video," a cocky Sol Phenduka said.
