QUIZ HOSTING HISTORY
Long, long ago in a far off country, my friend and I wrote and hosted a quiz night for our office's social club. 

Writing and hosting quizzes became a fun way to make
​people happy.
​
Fast forward to 2015 and Wellington's Lovelock's Sports Bar were looking for someone to take on their regular quiz night.
​
I stepped in.
​
The rest, as they say, is history...

THE TAYLOR TEAM

Hilary Taylor
Quiz Creator and Host
​Accountant by day, quiz host by night. 

That's Hilary's life in a nutshell. The TMQ events are all about people enjoying themselves and she's out there making sure that everyone in the audience is having a great time.

She also has an obsession with NZ band Hogsnort Rupert and will try and sneak in a question about them whenever possible!
Steve Taylor
Musician and Quiz Roadie
​One of Wellington's most distinctive voices, Steve has over 30 years of singing expertise and loves to see arms waving and people singing along.

Steve also doubles as 'sound technician' for our quiz events and he's not averse to joining a team.
​But don't expect him to know the answers in advance - they're kept very secret from him!
