I was invited by Amir Afif Azmi, the creative producer for Cradle TV to participate in a business talk show called the Start it up ala Jimmy Fallon. Cradle TV is an online video platform that records seminars, talks, event and news on technology. The Start It Up business talk show will be the first business talk show series in Cralde TV with 13 episodes. I am on the 11th
episode. The talk comprised of 2 segments with the first being a casual and a fun short interview followed by a game show.
The only game I have played my whole life was the board game monopoly & scrabble (and chess as well as the malay board game called 'dam haji'). I am not too fond of this game but heck, of course I will try. What is better than to try out new things. The downside for losing, the loser will be showered with bubble foam recorded on TV. The host, Razif Hashim was the only person I knew (or probably in Malaysia) that actually graduated with a degree in Acting. No doubt he was very natural, funny and hilarious.
The other participant on episode 11 with
me was Jazz Tan from YouthsToday.com. Youthstoday.com is a platform
that connects over 40,000 youth events with corporate brands reaching
out to millions of youth across the world. For corporate companies or businesses that wants to reach out to the youth, you can contact youthstoday.com.
Below are some snapshots from the shooting, Stay tuned and catch me with Razif Hashim at Cradle TV.

Cradle TV is an online platform showcasing technology-related talks, seminars, events, and news. The show consisted of two segments: a light, casual interview followed by a fun game show. Despite only being familiar with board games like Monopoly, Scrabble, chess, and dam haji, I took on the challenge with an open mind. Losing meant getting showered with bubble foam on camera, making it even more entertaining. Hosted by the talented Razif Hashim, Malaysia’s rare Acting graduate, the experience was both hilarious and memorable.
