Driving To Pretoria

3 days ago

South African comedian Nik Rabinowitz has spent the last twenty years performing stand-up. Before that he grew up on a farm outside Cape Town, delivering soliloquies up pine trees and commentating on his own rugby games in three of the country’s eleven official languages. Mid-pandemic, Nik sat down to record a series of conversations with fellow performers to reconnect and reminisce about the pre-covid “olden times”, and explore a range of other topics including the behind-the-scenes world of stand-up, and the evolution of South African comedy.

My guest in episode 3 of Driving to Pretoria is not a father, but despite this obvious disadvantage has still managed to establish himself as one of South Africa’s most prolific dad jokers.

I first met him before he’d cultivated either his impressive instagram following, or his voluptuous beard. Five years ago he opened for me at the Baxter Theatre in Cape Town, and after careful scrutiny, I can confirm his claims (in this episode) that we have been firm friends since.

Please enjoy this conversation with my good friend, comedian, social media person, and now, thanks to me, Falafel Influencer, Yaaseen Barnes.
