Summary

New season, new anniversary, and we're tweedledees tweezing facts about twelve! Karen's got a 12-question pub trivia challenge, and it's showtime at the Apollo and Colin has a movie twist quiz on the 12 Olympian Greek gods. Sure, every hardcore trivia fan can list out the bird-forward presents in the holiday carol, Twelve Days of Christmas but Chris finally finds out the true purpose of that dang confusing song. Why are the names of the months so... irregular? And we get flogged by some fascinating fascia-free facts about February.
