Brakpan resident Danny Painter, a Jacaranda FM presenter and former children’s TV presenter, has joined forces with musician and performer Jo Black in a new videocast set for both the local and international market.
They recently announced the launch of their international joint venture, The Jo and Danny Show.
This new show is set to premiere on August 3 exclusive to XOTV.me and on Jacaranda FM’s website.
“What started as a conversation about spreading kindness, with a friend, through the platforms we already had, turned into something I could never have imaged,” said Danny.
In the promo, Jo and Danny talk about what they set out to achieve with this new show, and also tease the possibility of international guests, including George Clooney.
Through informed discussions, lived experiences and stories, Jo and Danny will take you on a journey of healing, self-discovery and kindness.
Jo, one of the biggest selling artists in South Africa, who has a track record of spreading positivity through both his music and his speaking engagements, wants to shift gears.
“Here we are just Jo and just Danny, there are no fans, no backstage, just us,” he said.
“Real human connection with real human stories, everyone is part of the family.
“It’s a space I can open up in and allow people watching to get to know me, as me.”
With years of stage acting, television presenting and now radio under her belt, Danny brings to the table her unique interview style that allows people the space to open up and get really vulnerable.
“People are curating their feeds and the things they consume so much more,” she said.
“Jo and I saw a gap that needed to be filled, a gap for uplifting, motivational conversations with real humans about real human things.
“That’s what the show is about.”
People will be able to watch the episodes on XOTV (https://xotv.me/channels/313-the-jo-and-danny-show) and weekly at jacarandafm.com
Jo will also join Danny on air at Jacaranda FM every Wednesday, from August 5, to chat about the episodes and interviews.
Tune into Jacaranda FM from 7pm to 10pm Monday to Thursday to listen to her show, Love Songs with Danny Painter.
