\u201cSport is such a powerful part of our culture, it brings people together, creates shared moments and tells us so much about who we are. Rory understands how to tell those stories in a way that is accessible, entertaining and deeply connected to the audience.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Renowned for his humorous in-car commentary, successful comedy shows, and master of ceremonies engagements, Petzer has cultivated a passionate audience with his engaging and relatable narratives. His portfolio includes both visual and written formats, and he boasts several accolades, including multiple Comics\u2019 Choice Comedy Awards and a DStv Content Creator Award.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis just feels right! Time Out South Africa has always championed the culture and stories that make South Africa special, and sport is such a huge part of that story. I\u2019m proud to bring my own twist to it \u2013 a mix of laughter, local flavour and a healthy dose of unearned authority \u2013 to a platform that celebrates this country as much as I do,\u201d says Petzer.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

His upcoming pieces will delve into the humour, pride, and shared experiences that highlight the importance of sport in the local community.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAs Time Out South Africa grows, we want to reflect the full experience of life in our cities, from food, music and entertainment to the sporting moments that bring an entire country together. Rory is an exciting addition to that journey,\u201d adds Mohamed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
