The Benchwarmers Trivia Podcast

EP 224: Serbian Power Forward Danny Demogorgon (featuring guest Sam Collins)

Guest Sam Collins returns to the Bench, teaming with Eric Ede, in a close game against Benchwarers Josh and Markkus. The teams have fun answering David's questions, surfacing Rick Mind-flayer, Giants legend Harry Carey, Mrs. Coliseum, and even Paul Westphal, before realizing he is no longer with us. One player wants to say something inappropriate, but gives up instead. We also see Eric evolve before our eyes, trying to read questions (or at least part of them). In the end, it doesn't matter, David still gets canceled, and Mason takes abuse even though he wasn't playing. #demogorgon #mindflayer #harrycarey #mrscoliseum #paulwestphal #inappropriate #ericsevolution #readthequestion #canceled #poormason https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

EP 223: The Van Halen Hockey Company (featuring guest Tucker Warner)

Guest Tucker Warner returned to the Bench for Matt Takimoto's first hosted game as an official Benchwarmer. In it, we learned that Matt is no longer Schrödinger's Benchwarmer, that 7 seconds of soccer might still be too much for Josh, that revolving doors aren't for everyone, that 2016 was the year of the Splitiverse (with the total number of "featured" films that year titled "Split" growing to 6 after the recording), that a particular Orlando is the Cuban Kevin Duckworth, and that Mason will be sad that he missed out on an all-math 4th quarter. #notnew #death #taxes #briankelly #schrödinger #7seconds #revolvingdoor #split #splitiverse #cuban #kevinduckworth #math https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

EP 222: Congratulations, DJ Cooper

In this special game, Dan hosted a fatal four-way match with four teams of two benchwarmers each. Almost right off the jump, Dan chose chaos, and introduced a brand-new game style, tempting fate, and risking Josh's dreaded eyeroll. Newest Benchwarmer, Matt Takimoto, gave his teammate confidence when he espoused that he "doesn't remember it, but he doesn't not remember it." Helpful, Matt. We also learned of John Adams' Secretary of State/Cabinet Member, Olandis. Walling extends his social NFL football fandom, and is now rooting for everyone! Most importantly, Dan made a plan, and he followed through. #djcooper #fourway #chaos #eyeroll #helpful #johnadams #olandis #nfl #danwithaplan #solong #farewell #aufwiedersehen #goodbye https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

EP 221: You’re a Mean One, Bobby Grich (Featuring Head Coach Chris Shen)

Head Coach Chris Shen returns to the bench to team with Dan to take on the formidable team of Scott and Matt. The game presents a few surprises, as Matt nails halftime, David is deemed "diabolical" by one of the players, and it is Dan who has trouble getting off of someone. The teams also learn about 80s baseball players whose names are made up of four body parts. Oh, and most importantly, nobody goes *back* to Alaska. #bobbygrich #diabolical #bodyparts #alaska https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

EP 220: Too many Erics...and Davids (featuring guest Tim Geving)

Tim Geving returns to the Bench for this game hosted by THE Josh. The crew was restless early when they were told there wouldn't be a Sporting Haikus quarter, thanks to Eric Walling. But we did learn a few things during the game: that Austria and Germany are the same place, that Josh has officially retired "Sterling Silver" questions (a callback to Episode 10) due to the fact that he didn't realize 1967 was a big year for trophies, that there was a Litte Mermaid 2, that all of the cool skateboarders wear Heelys, and that Tim trapped a mouse in a waterbottle during the recording. #toomanyerics #anddavids #hakunamatata #chatgpt #nohaikus #blamewalling #austria #germany #sameplace #sterlingsilver #1967 #littememaid2 #mousetrap https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

EP 219: Gary is my Favorite Anderson (featuring Equiptment Manager Ian Hollenberg)

Ian Hollenberg joins the bench and hosts this episode which features Dan & Mason versus Matt & Scott. In it Scott threw some significant shade, one of Ian's questions triggers Dan, the halftime gets three very quick check ins and one team throws out a lucky Pudge. #Anderson #GaryAnderson #LoniAnderson #AndersonVarejao #AndersonCooper #KennyAnderson #GarretAnderson #RichardDeanAnderson #JamalAnderson #LouisAnderson #JillianAnderson #BradyAnderson #PamelaLeeAnderson #RobbieChosenAnderson #TomAnderson https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

EP 218: New Hit Show: Deck Antonio (featuring Equipment Manager Matt Takimoto)

Equipment Manager Matt Takimoto returns to the bench to team with Scott (bad idea!) to compete against Mason and Josh in this David-hosted game. It was clear early on that David was having an off day as he started explaining rules that everyone understood (clearly before David did). The teams also witnessed Josh sharing his nuggets, had a discussion about famous Crooner Dean Cole, and pondered Horseshoe Champion Theo Ratliff. And always remember: Sometimes you just need a Grimey Taco. #newhitshow #deckantonio #offday #nuggets #deancole #horseshoe #theoratliff #grimeytaco #nofactsjustvibes https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

EP 217: What’s Wrong with Ben Watson? (featuring Assistant Coach Dave Wortz)

Assistant Coach Dave Wortz joins the bench and teams up with Mason to face Ede and Matt in this Scott-hosted game. In it we learned that Matt's rap name is Jimmer Leonidas, that Mason takes us Way Back during halftime, that Ludacris had a forgotten album titled Heavy Anthony McDyess, that both teams know a lot about the 2002 MLB All-Star game, and that Dave struggles with a common Latin last name. #HeavyAnthony #FirstStringAllNameTeam #SamkonGado #MasonDatGuy #MikeCloud #AmosZereoué #AlCabllo https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

EP 216: I Ain’t Got Time to Read (featuring Equipment Manager David Kennedy)

Equipment Manager David Kennedy returned to the Bench to host his first BTP game. In it, we learned that David was much more creative than Josh and Markkus when it comes to team names, that Josh just went outside to play as a kid and had no time for books, that Scott can't watch any TV shows because of his contract with Hulu that runs through 2029, that nobody wants to play with Jeff Hornacek, that Evan Turner was mentioned multiple times without being an answer, and that 59...it's fine. #aintnobodygottimeforthat #iaintgottimeto #read #insertteamnamehere #fudge #outside #books #hulu #2029 #jeffhornacek #evanturner #59 #itsfine
