Vikram Joshi Haazir Ho

This week's BQC session will be hosted by freshly-minted Landmark Mumbai champ Vikram Joshi. The quiz should be fun, of course, but this is an ideal opportunity to fleece Vik for an all-you-can-consume booze-up afterward. Provided he can be captured for the duration of footing the bill.
