You're listening to an Airwave Media podcast.

Recorded in Chicago, Illinois, with your host, Ken, Matt, Neil, and Jeff.

This is Triviality.

Hello and welcome to Triviality. The gamer lack of seriousness meets a little bit of knowledge.

My name is Neil. I'm here with Ken, Jeff, and Matt. How is everyone today?

Good day. Good day. Doing great. Good morrow, Matt.

Oh, it's great. Great time to be alive.

What kind of pen do you have there? It looks like sideshow Bob or something.

Yeah, it's got some green dealies on it and it drives the cat crazy so I can distract her with it.

Is that from trivia contests?

No, it's handouts?

No, I get these for work.

You bought that with money?

Yeah, so I get them for work usually because when people ask to borrow a pen, they never steal

the pen that has a wacky, wavy arm guy. Inflatable arm guy? Playing 3D chess. Yeah. No one's stealing that. Like, no, I brought this from home. Like, I know you did. Well, one thing that we know no one's going to steal our wonderful guest that we have today because we're excited. We're going to have a great game. Matt, you're going to be scorekeeping because you brought that special pen. So you're just going to be hanging out. Well, you know.

You're excited. We're going to have a great game. Matt, you're going to be scorekeeping because you brought that special pen. So you're just going to be hanging out. Well, you know, it's good to hang out. And I'm going to blow the lid on this one. He is drained from being a Maryland state tournament champion. Shout out to the Pikachu. Are you allowed to compete on triviality anymore? I don't think so. You've gone pro. You're going to be like Rocky. You're going to get a robot and you're going to have endorsement deals. A robot? Who owns a robot? How about that? I would pay money to watch you fight Dolph Lundgren. At this age, Dolph Lungren, maybe. Maybe.

Still no. Probably, though. I'm sorry, you're delusional. He's got a long reach. That's the problem. Well, famously, Dolf Lungren actually punched Sylvester Stallone and sent him to the hospital during filming. So I think at this age, he probably still sent his hospital. He does. He's got some, he's got some muscles still. some power.

But speaking of power,

we had to bring in the big guns because, uh, Matt's not playing. And we need, uh, an even, uh, more esteemed trivia player, I think, than the Maryland state champion. So, uh, our first guest is going to be, uh, one of our friends from Chicago, uh, and, uh, so excited to have them here. Oakland Five supporter on Patreon.

Rowan, how are you today? I'm doing all right. How are you? Doing great. So nice to see you. Tell us what's been up in your world. I think when this airs, you will just have had a huge week. But yeah, tell us a little bit about what's going on in your world. Yeah, I mean, what's going on in my world is about what's going to be going on in my world when this airs,

which is to say, I write about horse racing and we're about to hit Triple Crown season.

As we're taping this, we've got like four Kentucky Derby Preps coming up this weekend.
