Poppy Ntshongwana Launches her Own Show

Poppy Ntshongwana Launches her Own Show. Talk about moving on with the times. While a lot of media personalities are still waiting on mediums like television and radio for gigs, some are taking the bull by its horns. We have witnessed the likes of MacG, Gareth Cliff, Tbo Touch, Scoop Makathini, Rea Gopane, Amanda duPont and so many others launch their own platforms online, which are quite successful.

Another celebrity who has now gone the online route is Poppy Ntshongwana. The media personality has just launched her own podcast, The Poppy Ntshongwana Show. Her very first guest was veteran media personality, Melanie Bala. Poppy was quite happy about the episode saying it “was such a great chat where I got to pick her brain about her foundation, her illustrious and successful career and the state of Radio in South Africa.”

This is not the first time Poppy used YouTube as a platform to share her content. Back in February this year she came up with her own running series, Run With Poppy. Through this series, she aims to help other people run harder, better, faster and stronger. Poppy’s biggest highlight thus far when Adidas South Africa came through for her with sponsorship for her series.

In an interview with Glamour magazine in 2020, Poppy said she uses her runs to work through things she is dealing with. She said she dedicates a specific run to finding solutions to certain things or to be grateful about something and that helps her deal with what’s happening mentally and emotionally.
