Along with a new timeslot, a new presenter and a bag full of new tricks all lined up for Season 3, The Man Cave is now also proudly sponsored by Hippo.co.za, South Africa’s free to use personal financial comparison website that helps consumers save money by comparing a range of South African providers across financial products such as car insurance, home insurance, life insurance, medical and more.

“Coming on board as a sponsor of The Man Cave has been such a exciting, natural and seamless process for us,” says Derek Wilson, head of Hippo.co.za. “We are confident that this partnership with The Man Cave will leverage savings for even more South Africans.”

The Man Cave, which is set to run for 26 weeks in Season 3, will once again be aired on SABC3, but under a new timeslot of 20:30. The Lunga Shabalala and Janez Vermeiren partnership will continue as before, but they have added a third presenter in the mix in the form of comedian, MC and onetime ballroom dancer, Siv Ngesi. As per the successful recipe of the first two seasons, the exciting third season will feature a good dose of DIY, adventures and high flyers.

“The Man Cave content will be all about comparing cool gadgets and cars and helping consumers choose – a perfect fit with Hippo.co.za, as our comparison website is known for instantly sourcing and comparing the best deals on car insurance and other personal financial products across a range of leading SA providers,” says Wilson.

Yusuf Stevens, executive producer states, “The Man Cave was a dream realised by big dreamers - guys who wanted to shake things up a bit and do what they enjoy most – being men. This was initially a challenge as we were told we would fail but we proved, against all odds, that if you believe in yourself and your ideas, nothing is impossible.”

Season 3 of The Man Cave was officially launched on Thursday, 11 June at an exclusive event at their Johannesburg studios where sponsors, partners, friends and everyone involved in the success of the show rubbed shoulders and celebrated this new season. Catch The Man Cave every Thursday night on SABC3.
