There’s a new bite size weekly good news show that has just launched in South Africa and you can watch it anywhere!

 

It’s called Good Things TV and it’s proudly brought to you by Good Things Guy!

The show was created to bring stories featured on the site to life, and to hopefully give South Africans a reason to end off their weekend on a high note.

“I believe that news channels and investigative reporting shows are so incredibly important but I also believe in balance, and I just don’t think we have enough balance in the news space in South Africa. 

So we’ve created Good Things TV to offer South Africans balance in a world with what feels like constant bad news. We’re here to remind you that there are still so many good things happening in South Africa & we’ll hopefully leave you feeling a little more proudly South African.” Brent Lindeque explains.

The first episode features four incredible stories, highlighting a different view on what South Africans are currently talking about. From the brave firefighters who put their lives on the line everyday, to a smash and grab incident that turned two strangers into good friends.

“Our main focus is to try change the national conversation, and more importantly to tell stories that matter.”

The first episode was launched on all social media platforms, but the team is hoping that it would be a spring-board to something more mainstream, to reach even more South Africans.

“The first episode is just a pilot… to gauge what South Africa thinks about a good news show, and to see if corporates would back something like this in the long run.”
