Pod Trivia

Wow, I can't believe we actually made a hundred of these things. It seems like we were just in Kyle's office, trying to answer random trivia facts about Sammy Davis Jr. and here we are....answering no trivia questions. Here's to all of you who listen! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

Did you know there was a new taste added? We didn't but apparently Kyle did. Join us as we take a journey through the senses to discover incredible new sensations of the tongue. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

The best way to start any episode description is with a formal apology to those who may disagree with me. But my opinions are my own, even if they are sometimes slightly egotistical. Many of my statements were regarding the worst of the worst and not about the general cheer community. I hope that if we have difference of opinions, you are still able to look past that and enjoy the show. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

Most of you have been on the internet and seen the start of a post "They're a 10 but...".

We are joined this week, not by Dr. Amy but instead Marathoner Amy. She goes into the history of women running marathons while answering our most important running questions.

Apparently we are an interview podcast now and we have our first guest, Dr. Amy! She has gone to school, taken tests and here to answer all of our questions. Most importantly, what is my jaw issue?

Kyle is our resident technology guru so we dive deep into his knowledge to get his opinion of new inventions and self driving cars. In Rapid Trivia we cover popular initialisms and other mnemonic devices. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

Becky got a religion fact wrong. Everyone point and laugh at her. Don't actually, but if you want to get deep into some religion questions from Britton and Kyle, than this is the episode for you. Ans Becky obviously knows that it is suspected that Moses wrote Genesis. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

In this episode, Britton shares a storytelling trick that he has been using for the past year in order to remember what he did on every day of his life.

We continue our discussion of all the things in the world that Britton doesn't know. Please don't judge him. He is smart in his own way....kind of. We then try to find out what is wrong in the Star Wars based statements that Kyle makes and unsurprisingly, we are terrible at it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

Play along at home and see you know more than us. I'm sure you do this already but this week we make it very easy by asking questions we don't know the answer to. And we haven't even looked them up! Wow, are we getting lazy? Oh well, you can deal with it. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

We apologize for the short hiatus, but after listening to this episode, I think you will agree it was well needed. This was recorded before our break and Britton is to the point of delirium.

Wait another Harry Potter episode. They must have not prepared anything. And you would be exactly right. Instead, we use our phone generator to come up with the name of the next movie in the Harry Potter series. And it makes little to no sense. In Rapid Trivia, Britton gives some funny facts what are "true". Maybe. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

Honey badger don't care. Neither do preying mantises or hero shrews as long as you only step on their backs. Also Britton may be a shark. At least he only uses half of his brain. Animal facts! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pod-trivia/support

We took a break this week from giving you the hard hitting facts that you are use to and instead decided to do some book recommendations for you. That and open some presents.

Britton here. Sorry for either ruining this episode or making it great. That will be up to you to decide, but once you have cows on the brain it is very difficult to stop thinking about them.

What a surprise, another episode where Britton and Kyle talk over Becky in order to get across their own pointless quips and anecdotes.
