In this week’s episode of Storytime, Joshua sits down with rugby content creator and analyst Jordan Buhrs for a massive conversation around the current state of rugby and digital media in South Africa.
The boys unpack the latest South Africa national rugby union team alignment camp, the upcoming Test series, and the excitement building around the next Rugby World Cup cycle. They discuss the rise of England star Henry Pollock, the direction of the England national rugby union team, and what makes rugby such a powerful force in uniting South Africans.
Joshua and Jordan also break down the latest United Rugby Championship results, bold URC predictions, and the anticipation surrounding the upcoming Greatest Rivalry clashes as New Zealand national rugby union team prepare to tour South Africa.
Beyond rugby, the conversation shifts into content creation in South Africa — discussing the future of creator collaboration, building audiences locally, and why South African creators need to work together to grow the country’s digital reach globally.

In this episode of Storytime, Joshua is joined once again by viral South African voice Estean — and this time, nothing is off limits.
The conversation dives straight into South African party culture — from the chaos of Plett Rage, high school house parties, and First Thursdays, to how the modern-day party scene has evolved.
Joshua and Estean break down the science (and strategy) behind drinking — debating alcohol percentages, the best beers for different times of day, and the unspoken rules of a proper South African jol.
They then shift into rugby, unpacking the dominance of the South Africa national rugby union team, the road to the next Rugby World Cup, and what it means to pursue passion at the highest level.

In this episode of Storytime, Joshua sits down with rising international actor Awdo Awdo, one of the newest faces breaking into the global film and television scene.
Awdo is best known for his upcoming role as Mr. 1 (Daz Bonez) in One Piece — one of the world’s biggest Netflix franchises. Despite being early in his career, he has already landed major opportunities, including working on the upcoming film Subversion alongside Hollywood A-listers.
The conversation explores his journey into acting, transitioning from working behind the scenes in production to stepping in front of the camera, and what it takes to break into high-level international projects. Awdo also shares insight into filming in Cape Town, preparing for physically demanding roles, and how being cast in a global series like One Piece is shaping his future in the industry.

In this episode of Storytime, Joshua sits down with viral South African TikTok sensation Ziané Saayman, better known across the country as the Braaibroodtjie Girl.
After exploding online through her unmistakable humour, bold personality, and massively viral food-themed content, Ziané has built a huge digital audience — with her TikTok presence growing rapidly through viral clips and her Instagram becoming one of the most talked-about young creator profiles in the Afrikaans content space. Her breakout single Die Braaibroodjie Reël helped push her into national conversation, becoming one of South Africa’s most recognisable viral music moments.
Joshua and Ziané unpack what it actually feels like when viral fame arrives overnight — the love, the criticism, the online hate, and why South African social media can be both powerful and brutal at the same time.
They also discuss her move into music, the strategy behind building content that people cannot stop sharing, and how understanding audience behaviour has helped her repeatedly trigger the algorithm.
The conversation also explores her latest single releases, her growing ambitions in entertainment, and how she sees herself evolving beyond viral moments into a long-term brand.
To close the episode, Joshua and Ziané dive into a live taste test with Knox Hydrate, adding a fun finish to a conversation built around virality, identity, and modern South African internet culture.
