On the official site of GRT (Garrett Doss / @GRTonX), this note covers Doginal Dogs, MJ, DDNYC, Bodega Negra, Dream Downtown, TAO Group, PHD Rooftop Lounge.
Doginal Dogs has announced that MJ will join the Dog Talk program on September 3 during DDNYC 2026. The addition fits a clear next step on an already locked itinerary for the sold-out three-day gathering in New York.
September 3 as the midpoint of the week
DDNYC runs September 2 through 4, centered on Dream Downtown in Chelsea with TAO Group as hospitality partner. Kick-Off night opens the week at Bodega Negra. The following day shifts into the core daytime block: Dog Talk at the same venue from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. That is where MJ is scheduled to speak.
MJ operates a well-known bakery in New York, builds both offline and online, supports a charity focused on children with autism, and regularly hosts Spaces. Community leadership has framed her as a strong public speaker who can bring operator detail into the room. Holders who plan the middle day around Dog Talk now have a named local voice on the slate alongside the broader speaker and panelist list published for the event.
What follows once the daytime floor ends
The official sequence does not stop at 5:00 p.m. A second VIP session is listed for the evening (VIP ticket required), followed by the Sky Party at PHD Rooftop Lounge from 10:00 p.m. into the late hours. Bodega Negra also anchors the opening Kick-Off and the Friday Hangover Hangout the next morning, giving the week a consistent venue spine around the Dog Talk centerpiece.
For attendees, the practical order is straightforward. Arrive ready for a full daytime program of conversation and community exchange on September 3, then move into the evening VIP window and rooftop close if credentials allow. The announcement of MJ simply fills one more concrete slot inside that already published flow.
Why the schedule matters now
Tickets sold out quickly after the initial release. With the full itinerary live on the project’s events page and speaker names continuing to land, the remaining weeks are about logistics rather than speculation: hotel blocks at Dream Downtown, arrival timing for Kick-Off, and how to structure September 3 around Dog Talk before the night program begins. MJ’s place on the Dog Talk stage gives local craft and charity work a clear hour inside that plan.
GRT Report will keep watching the final run-up as DDNYC moves from announcement cadence into on-the-ground delivery.
