Who is Hans? Hot Breakfast Goes Rogue with Phone Contacts
What do a chicken manure dealer, a forgotten financial consultant, and a possibly fictional Zimbabwean border smuggler have in common? They were all surprise stars of HOT 1027 Breakfast — thanks to an impromptu game of “Who’s in My Phone Contacts?”
On a Tuesday morning full of mischief, the HOT Breakfast team—Parky, Bunny, and Simon—decided to scroll through their phonebooks live on air, randomly calling names they didn’t recognise. What followed was a hilarious, unpredictable segment that listeners won’t soon forget.
One of the highlights? “Hans Davel,” a mystery name in Simon Hill’s phone. After some confusion, it turned out Hans was a cattle farmer and financial consultant in the North West Province, who also happens to deal in chicken manure.

The Madness of Phone Contacts
The penny finally dropped when Simon recalled Hans delivering said manure to his garden—manure that, by all accounts, still hasn’t broken down. “You ruined Simon’s garden,” Parky joked, “and the Bryanston Country Club’s reputation!”
Then came the call to Ryland Poggenpoel, one of Parky’s phone contacts with zero context. To everyone’s surprise, Ryland answered with gusto—claiming to have smuggled Parky and 17 other families out of Zimbabwe in 1999, hidden in the back of a Nissan “Chimp.” The story was clearly absurd, but the comedy gold was undeniable, especially when Ryland jokingly demanded long-overdue payment.
In Conclusion
As the calls wrapped up, listeners were encouraged to get in on the action by sending in mystery numbers from their own phones for a similar surprise call-back.
It was a morning of chaos, chicken poop, and comic genius—proving once again that with HOT 1027 Breakfast, you never know what’s coming next, especially if it’s in your phone contacts. Tune in to Hot Breakfast for more humour and more of the unexpected.
