We were honored to help the Asian American Journalists Association’s New York chapter in producing & spinning their inaugural Trivia Bowl at the ABCTV1 studios in New York City last year!

Sixteen teams competed — from the New York Times, CNN, Asian American Bar Association to the CUNY Association of Black Journalists — to win the coveted Tea Cup trophy and bragging rights for the year. Real judges from the New York area including the Honorable Marilyn D. Go, and the Honorable John Lansden, scored answers and ABC News Correspondent Juju Chang and FOX 5 reporter Ti-Hua Chang served as the evening’s emcees.

My favorite part of the night was when I dropped Hypnotize as the judges deliberated an answer for the Notorious BIG’s hometown (Clinton Hill vs Bedstuy… both answers were deemed correct).  The timing was perfect as NYC crowd erupted in cheers!

And the winner of the Tea Cup trophy?  The team from the New York Times!

Over 400 people packed the Providence NYC on a rainy Thursday night for the 4th Annual Taste of Success presented by Streetwise Partners.   The Remixologists provided the soundtrack for the 2nd year in a row and we did not disappoint.  On my short breaks from spinning, I made the rounds and stuffed myself silly with all the great foods (my favorite: tuna tartare from Buddakan) and drinks (MORE MOET!) from the wonderful sponsors that support this great event and organization.

After the event ended at 10pm, everybody moved to the downstairs club area and danced the night away.  Don’t be fooled by the suits and and proper attire, people GOT DOWN on the dance floor!  I am barred from posting any afterparty pictures… just kidding… sort of.
