50 - Comedy With Dave Levinsohn

from African Couch Potato · host Gino Shelile, Dave Levinsohn

 Dave Levinsohn's on-the-spot skills often make it look like he’s making it up as he goes... that’s because he is!   This week Gino has a front row seat with one of SA's top comedians. Find out how far Dave will go, why he likes it when people don't laugh and how not to introduce him at your braai. This popular and original comedian has been honing his skills as the host at the Coffee Lounge comedy club since 1997, and is a regular face at the Vodacom International festival and the Smirnoff comedy festival. Television viewers are familiar with Dave's quirky, irrepressible humour from his ‘Big Black Box’ ads, or as the zany co-presenter in the first series of the SABC's ‘Going Nowhere Slowly’, as well as a character (and writer) in the latest “Tonight with Trevor Noah Show”, (MNet).On the comedy stage, his material darts into more lateral territory... With his "slightly-weird-guy-next-door" approach to every subject under the sun, Dave is odd, without being offensive. His anarchic re-examination of everyday topics has won him fans at every appearance, as does his ability to improvise when interacting with the crowd.Yes? No?
