You're listening to an Airwave Media podcast.

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

This is Triviality.

Hello and welcome to Triviality, the game where lack of seriousness meets a little bit of knowledge.

I am ready for the lack of seriousness today. Are you not, Neil?

I am ready. I'm seated, as the kids say.

Are you not entertained?

I'm entertained sometimes. I'd prefer if someone was brutally murdered by Russell Crow, but I'll be entertained. Okay. That would be entertaining. Matt, how are you doing? I'm good. I'm ready for the little bit of knowledge, but I know that's all in Neil's hands today. And no Jeff today. No Jeff today. But filling in for Jeff as a friend we had a chance to hang out with at SprokelCon. We'll see him again, SprokelCon Chicago, which we're excited about. Very excited. Yeah, coming to us from Jacksonville, one of our Oakland Five supporters. Alan, how are you doing today? I'm doing a while. Thanks for having me. Yeah, thanks for being here. Tell us a little bit about yourself. It's the first time on the show, I believe, right? Yes, yes, it is. I've been wanting to get on

for a while now, so I'm definitely glad to be here. I'm a billing clerk for a law firm here.

I'm, you know, just living my life, play a little bit of pub trivia on the side and listen to a

bunch of trivia podcast, including this one. Sounds like the way.

That's crazy, Alan, because you're such an active member in the crop that I felt like you've at least been on one or two times because I feel like I know you already. So, like, this is your first time. So that's welcome to the show. Yeah, also did your fantasy football, yeah. Yep, yep, yeah. Are you still doing that, Matt, fantasy football? Yeah, I didn't send out any prizes because I'm bad at being a manager, but maybe we'll send them out next year. I had three different leagues, so if you're interested, maybe I'll post that soon and we can get started. Prizes not guaranteed. If I would, there's prizes. Let's get those out. Let's get those out, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Neil, this is your second trivia game this week in two days? Yeah, yeah, I went to a, like a park district charity event or, you know, just to kind of support the school system and everything. And it was really fun. I was with my friend John and got to meet some great people on our team.

It was a 90s themed night.

I thought it was going to be a 90s theme trivia all night. So I studied a ton of 90s trivia. You studied for it? I did because I wanted to make sure I didn't forget anything. But we were the flannel channel. We all had flannels on. so that was I didn't was, I didn't have a flannel, so I had to find one. But, uh, anyway, so we were doing the event and, um, we were doing really, really well. Like, we were, I think we maybe missed two, three questions the whole time. And, uh, we got to close to the final round. And we, we were told our score was 49 points and we were in second place and the first place

was 56 and we're like I don't know how someone's beating us by seven points we only maybe lost

three questions and you get five the math wasn't mathing the math wasn't math thing so I was like

I'm not gonna I didn't keep score like you know some people would at trivia because I you know

was just for fun anyway so we did the final

round and we got all of them right 10 questions right and then they announced the winner they said to

the winner so you fell to fifth place the winner had 66 points we're like okay we had 49 going to the

final round we got all 10 right so we should have 59 points and we're like second place 56 points didn't even
