From Suzelle DIY to Tali Babes: Julia’s Journey of Laughter and Storytelling

Loading player...
Julia Anastasopoulos, the brilliant mind behind Suzelle DIY, Tali Babes, and Natalie, joins me on Good Things with Brent Lindeque.

We dive into her journey as an actor, writer, and creator, and explore how her characters have become part of South African culture.

From viral YouTube moments to award-winning shows, Julia’s work is all about laughter, connection and storytelling that feels real. She shares the inspiration behind her iconic characters, the creative process that brings them to life and why humour is such a powerful way to bring people together.

If you love good stories, South African creativity, and a few laughs along the way, this is one conversation you don’t want to miss.
