'The guys of today have no limits. They have all these role models and incredible platforms. They just need to be brave with it.'

Trevor Gumbi has seen a lot in his career so far but believes that the future of comedy has never been brighter in Mzansi, if only they adapt.

The show will also feature Donovan Goliath, Conrad Koch & Chester Missing, Nina Hastie, TolA$$ Mo and Lindy Johnson. "We have seen it with Trevor Noah and Loyiso Gola, and in others. Our comedians are doing well overseas and it is only the start. If you ask me how comedy will be in the future, I think it is not so much about content changing as the faces. I think that SA will make its impact. but you have to adapt to new audiences and way people see the world."
