TriviaNYC Podcast #37: World Quiz Championships Edition
Right off the top, congratulations to everyone who participated in the World Quiz Championships, both here in New York and in the 28 countries around the world It was as difficult as expected, but we represented as a city, and as a continent against those Euro-polyglot-polymath know-it-alls. One of these days, and it might be sooner than you think, we’re gonna catch you. Just like soccer. We’re coming.
Full results are in this table, and the world results (as well as the details of what I’m on about, if you didn’t follow the goings on last week) are at the WQC Website.
Anyway, it’s good to be off hiatus. I love summer in this city, oppressive heat and all. A little quiz keeps blood flowing to the brain, preventing you from melting into a total puddle. Do it for yourself, your country and the gods you pray to (if applicable)
Enjoy the podcast.
(We’re on the twitters and the emails.)
Our Tuesday Trivia at Slainte and our Wednesday Trivia at Dempsey’s are both on in full effect, as always. Come out, see us in person, win something!
- I don’t think I mentioned it, but the final song is an entirely appropriate one from Bongwater’s album “The Power Of Pussy.” This was what Ann Magnuson (yes, that Ann Magnuson) was doing when she wasn’t goofing off in sitcoms or getting bit roles as the mouthy best friend or the evil bitch-queen in romantic comedies. I think she’s friggin’ awesome.
Have a great week.
