Jason Goliath is an award-winning stand-up comedian, MC, facilitator, actor, and television presenter whose career spans live entertainment, broadcast media, and corporate stages across South Africa and internationally. Based in Johannesburg, he is widely recognised for his fearless humour, commanding presence, and ability to connect with audiences through honesty, intelligence, and high energy.

After a successful career in marketing, sales, and insurance, Jason made a decisive pivot into comedy in his thirties. That transition, along with the realities of building a business and performing under pressure, now forms the backbone of his motivational work. Drawing from lived experience rather than theory, Jason speaks openly about reinvention, resilience, and redefining success, using humour and storytelling to deliver insights that are relatable, practical, and grounded in real life.

Jason is a familiar face on South African television and radio. He is currently a co-presenter on the award-winning Celebrity Game Night on E! Entertainment and has hosted a wide range of formats, including morning television, magazine shows, and late-night talk shows. His acting credits span popular local series and feature films, alongside an international cameo, and he is the unmistakable voice of Comedy Central Africa.

A respected corporate MC and facilitator, Jason is trusted by blue-chip clients to energise audiences while maintaining professionalism and control of the room. His motivational programme, The Happiness Economy, explores practical principles for finding purpose, energy, and fulfilment at work and in life, and can be tailored to themes such as leadership, culture, diversity and inclusion, customer experience, and sales. He is also the co-founder of the award-winning agency Goliath and Goliath and a proud ambassador for the UNHCR’s LuQuLuQu Movement, championing resilience and shared humanity.

Whether delivering comedy, facilitating dialogue, or challenging audiences to think differently, Jason Goliath brings authenticity, insight, and impact that audiences remember long after the event ends.
