TriviaNYC Podcast #29: Cities Of Cheese, And Other Mythical Places

In which I make maybe one too many Catholic Church Jokes, but make up for it by talking about places that don’t exist, except in your minds. And maybe your hearts. Or your gall bladders. I don’t know, it’s your body, I’m not a botanist.

There are tons of great imaginary places out there, in books, records, movies, fever dreams, bad explanations from sexually unfaithful State Governors, golf professionals, inside Rod Serling’s head, hyperactive children’s show hosts, repressed childhood traumas, corporate theme parks, and whatever the hell Glenn Beck thinks is his homeland. This week, five of those imaginary locations make their way into the podcast.

Just writing that last paragraph tells me that putting together a full round (or three) based on the theme of Imaginary Places is a slam dunk. When people ask if I’ll ever run out of trivia questions, I think of moments like this, and then I laugh in their face, all maniacal-like, before prancing off on my pogo stick into oncoming traffic. Wheeee!

I get the feeling it’s not a bad idea to put a cuss-word warning at the beginning of the podcast these days. It’s either that or start censoring the team names lists, and frankly, the last thing in this world that I want to do is step on you-all’s nascent creativity. Go nuts for donuts, team name wise. I have yet to see something I wouldn’t read into a live microphone. Not that I’m daring you, I’m just saying. Vulgar trumps boring eight days out of seven.
