Castle Lite continues to unlock new ways of keeping consumers entertained by giving them experiences that they can easily enjoy at home. “The new normal has created massive shifts in digital content consumption. As a brand known for creating the most fun and unconventional experiences for our consumers, we were definitely not going to allow the lockdown to stop us. This also presents the brand with the opportunity to further position itself as a thought leader in creating great content,” said Castle Lite Brand Director, Silke Bucker.
The Lite Show premiers on Friday, 28 August 2020 on Castle Lite’s YouTube channel and will be hosted by comedian and media personality, Donovan Goliath.
Each week, Donovan will host the show from the comfort of a beautifully styled home in Johannesburg and will open each episode with a short musical interlude by himself and his partner Davina. Donovan will unlock the week by touching on some of the weekly headlines before moving to the extra cold interview segment where he will interview South Africa’s most topical stars while they play fun games and get to know each other better. Surviving the New Normal with Lihle Msimang, Retweet or Like by Mojak Lehoko and the Rap Up by rapper Rouge will keep viewers entertained.
It definitely would not be a Castle Lite show without musical performances from the country’s most talented artists. Viewers can expect the same light-hearted and fun energy that Donovan is known for, while also giving a roundup of the most entertaining headlines of the week.
