Loyiso Gola, Echoes of Laughter

Two-time Emmy-nominated comedian Loyiso Gola joins Kojo Baffoe for a conversation that’s equal parts hilarious and profound. From his early days dreaming of playing football for Orlando Pirates to shaping South African comedy with Pure Monate Show and Late Night News, Gola unpacks his sometimes messy, always brilliant journey of authenticity.  Key Moments:  Race vs. Capital: Gola dismantles the illusion that corporations care about identity. “…people think it’s us vs. them. No, it’s us vs. capital.”   Therapy as a Mirror: His raw take on self-work.  “Therapists won’t make you a better person. They’ll help you see you’re an asshole.” Fort Hare’s Hidden Agenda: How elite education was designed to suppress radical thought, and why it matters today.  European Comedy Grind: Surviving 12 gigs in one night. “Simplify your language. They don’t get wordplay.”   Creating Late Night News: The balance of humour and responsibility. “People wanted takes, not just jokes.” Why Listen?  Reflections on fame: “I’m an introvert with shitty temperament.” History: “No one taught us the truth”, and "The Rand Revolt will reshape how you see power." His “just do it” ethos is a rallying cry for creators.  So, listen now, this episode is a masterclass in thinking deeper, laughing harder, and challenging everything.  Subscribe, watch/listen now on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠or wherever you find your podcasts.
