Corporate Comedians
Jason Goliath is a larger than life comedian who literally is larger than life (it’s because all this personality won’t fit into a smaller body ok!) With a commanding stage presence, ridiculous amounts of energy and a character based set focused on making audiences laugh at life’s uncomfortable truths; he has performed successfully at numerous corporate events and leading comedy rooms/events: Blacks Only, Proudly Coloured Comedy Festival, Parkers, Melville Underground, Captains Comedy Festival, AWEdnesday Comedy Jam, LOL at Gold Reef City, Comic's Choice Awards™ Winners Lap, The Box and many many more.
With more than 10 years professional MC experience Jason also takes on Facilitation and Motivational roles and has done so for Standard Bank, FNB, Deloitte and SAA to mention a few.
With degrees in Drama, English and Education, Alyn began writing his own jokes via live improvised comedy in Durban, in 1993/94’s Comedy Games, a shameless Whose Line Is It Anyway? clone. He soon switched to solo stand-up and was a founder comic at the Johannesburg (formerly Civic) Theatre's Punchline Pub in 1996.
His stand-up writing drew him inexorably into the publishing industry. A three-year stint writing weekly opinion columns for the Mail & Guardian Online in the late Nineties was followed by his appointment as the staff writer for FHM magazine, upon its South African launch in 1999. Part of his actual instructions from publishers UpperCase Media (UCM) was “make it funny”.
Throughout his years in a day-job, Alyn remained a popular stand-up act on the Gauteng club circuit, as well as at a host of independent gigs around the country, including Durban, Pietermaritzburg, Bloemfontein, Welkom, Roodepoort, Mbombela, PE, Knysna, Cape Town, Tshwane and even Walkerville – or Walker-Texas-Ranger-ville, as it's known to most comics. He’s equally at home as an MC, having hosted several venues around the country, including The Blues Room (Sandton).
Alyn is still active as an improv comic, most recently with Starship Improvise in Johannesburg.
He also works as part of the Joburg Comedy Cartel troupe, comprising himself, Vittorio Leonardi, Warren Robertson and Shaun Wewege. They launched the JCC with a successful tour to Durban in October 2010, followed by a series of gigs throughout 2011 and 2012 at Houghton’s Foxwood Theatre. They are available for corporate bookings, either individually, or as a four-hander.

GRIFF has wanted to be a comedian since he was three years old where his mother use to set up the seniors in The Convalescent Homes where she worked, in an audience typesetting and let her son make sleeping and comatose old people laugh. So after working the Geriatric Circuit for a couple of summers his destiny was settled. Since then, that little funny boy with the faith of a PLANET has made a name for himself as one of the leading comedians and On-Air Personalities in the Country by headlining across North America (including Canada), New Zealand, The U.K. and Africa.
With his quick wit and unsurpassed knowledge for sports news, “GRIFF” took sports took sports to the ‘next level’ with his comedic twist on athletes and their stories. In 1999 he received Georgia’s Sportcaster of the Year Award and in 2004 “Street Skillz”, a program he provided the color commentary for was nominated for an EMMY.
Ultimately, GRIFF is a Comedian, an On-Air Personality, an Author, an Actor, a Motivational Speaker, a Daddy, an EMMY nominated Sportscaster and a man who puts Jesus Christ ahead of all men all wrapped into one.
