CLASS 95’s Yasminne Cheng On The Challenges Of Reworking Her Lunchtime Show For The Screen

Just plonk a camera in front of her and let Yasminne do the voodoo she does so well —engrossing us with foodie news, trivia games and daily polls. Seriously, how hard can it be? This should be a walk in the park for her.

Well, yes — and no. Turns out there’s more to the set-up than meets the eye. Here, Yasminne tells us more about the challenges of ‘double’-hosting her live radio show.
