On Tuesday morning, Boys & Girls Club of Coachella Valley CEO Scott Robinson joined NBC Palm Springs for a festive edition of “Hashtags and Pop Quiz,” part of a holiday toy drive. The station, alongside its news director, is helping collect toys and gifts for local kids, ensuring a joyful season for families in need. Robinson joined the fun segment, taking part in holiday-themed trivia questions that tested his knowledge of pop culture and history. With the day marking several observances, including National Maple Syrup Day and Wright Brothers Day, the spotlight quickly turned to a celebration of the animated sitcom The Simpsons. Questions included Lisa Simpson’s musical instrument of choice— the saxophone—and the name of the cartoon’s news anchor, Kent Brockman. Robinson impressed the team by nailing both questions and earning a perfect score. The lighthearted trivia provided a fun moment to highlight the important work of the Boys & Girls Club while celebrating community spirit during the holidays. Robinson’s participation not only brought smiles but also underscored the ongoing efforts to bring cheer and support to local families. For those looking to contribute, donations for the toy drive are being accepted throughout the season.
