This isn’t even about me. This is about SA comedy and comedy on in Africa. We’re all grinding so damn hard to make this thing work and this only happened because the hard work, love and dedication we all put into this is obvious to the world. Luckily for me, I have a whole team of some of the best comedy writers, a stellar production team and @comedycentralaf behind me. Here’s to SA comedy m, comedians and conedy lovers ??
