As I drive home from the Savanna Comics' Choice Awards, the country is currently on Stage 8 loadshedding. So, if there is one thing that this country needs besides electricity, it's uplifting comedic content. So, to have won an award last night for doing exactly that means the world to me. I would also like to thank every single person who has liked, commented on, shared any of my content that I post daily, thank you, it is because of you that I have won this award. Also, I would like to say, I create this content every day just to make at least one person happy, so the fact that South African comedy fans has voted me the most uplifting comedic content creator, makes me very, very happy and I'll keep doing exactly that.
