DStv is excited to introduce the hosts of its tasty new YouTube show #OhSnack!, which goes live today, Friday 4 June. The weekly live stream highlights the hottest content to watch on DStv each week. Viewers can expect exclusive behind-the-scenes action of their favourite shows, juicy celebrity interviews and not-to-be-missed sneak peeks of the most awaited movies and series. 

NEW FACES!

To find the perfect personalities to host the show, DStv held a nationwide presenter search. DStv’s mission was to find two larger-than-life talents that would capture the hearts of Mzansi and have viewers coming back for more content snacks week after week.

Winners Robyn Morema (22) and Taki Muthige (24) fit the bill with their undeniable vibrant on-screen energy. The personality they bring to the screen was already evident in the teaser released earlier this week and is a clear sign of fun times to come!

Robyn and Taki join the DStv family alongside the likes of popular on-screen personalities Katlego Danke, Sicelo Buthelezi, Motshidisi Mohono, Mihlali Ndamase and Anele Zondo – many of whom took to Instagram to welcome DStv's newest presenters to the family. Speaking on her IG stories, Zondo had some valuable advice for the two: "With YouTube being such a big and diverse platform, it is always important to be authentic," she said, adding: "All the best, I know you guys are going to make a dynamic duo and I can't wait to watch and indulge in all the delicious content that Oh Snack will be bringing to us!"

You can see Robyn and Taki in action for the very first time when #OhSnack! goes live at 3pm today and watch their journey in the #OhSnack! Behind The Scenes documentary on Wednesday 9 June, exclusive to the DStv YouTube channel.
