The Benchwarmers Trivia Podcast

EP 74: Princeton Backdoor (featuring Head Coach Eric Walling)

Head Coach Eric Walling joined the bench and teamed up with Eric Ede against Dan and Mason in this game hosted by Scott. In it we  discussed Scottie Pippen's short lived Juice drink, what the requirements are to graduate high school in Texas, and why that Chicago nun gave up winning for lent.

EP 73: Butts, Fanny, Booty, and Cheeks (featuring guest Ryan Meyers)

Ryan Meyers joins the bench, teaming up with pal Markkus against the Benchwarmer team of Eric and Scott in a game hosted by Josh. Eric and Scott propose a new Olympic event, Josh gives out a free use of his trademark, Eric doesn’t pay attention to a question (again), and the 4th quarter categories may have been catered to our guest just a little. 

EP 72: A Random Duncan (featuring Trey, Michael & Ryan from the College Football Bros podcast)

Ryan, Trey and Michael of the College Football Bros podcast join the bench to face the Benchwarmer team of Mason, Matt and Markkus for a game hosted by Eric. In it, the Eric timed tailgate is back by popular demand, he also included some Husker-related questions not knowing the guests are all huge Husker fans, yet another missing link that challenges the teams, and one team dominates in the second half to run away with things.

EP 71: She had polio! (featuring guest Taylor Schroll)

Guest Taylor Schroll re-joins the bench and teams up with Eric to face Josh & Scott in a Markkus hosted game. In this game, we learn about 90's era NBA players who wanted to cross over into the music industry, Abe Lincoln wasn't a bare knuckles boxer (but was a good wrestler), and Eric struggles with a wrestling/NFL draft question.

EP 70: Mayor Marion Barry Zito (featuring guest Nick Gonzalez)

Guest Nick Gonzalez joins the bench once again, this time teaming up with Scott against Dan and Josh in a game hosted by Eric. One team CONSTANTLY reminds us of their home state, Josh states he doesn't have feelings...and then proceeds to feel bad for getting a question right, Dan uses a D4 to choose an answer, and everyone is well aware that Eric had to scramble to write this game.

EP 69: I Want To Punch Him In The Face! (featuring Head Coach John Pina)

Patreon Head Coach John Pina joins the bench and teams up with Matt (poor guy) against Markkus & Scott for this game hosted by Dan. In it we learn a little bit about Ziebart Tidy Car for some reason, both teams struggle with a WNBA/NBA crossover coach, and both teams struggle with another well-crafted Missing Link round.

EP 68: Christmas Spoiler Alert for Kids ... be warned!

Josh comes in hot for this all-Benchwarmer match, the first recording in 2021! Eric & Matt team up against Scott & Mason for a game where TJ Yoshi (spelling incorrectly intentionally) comes up again, Matt gets Babe Didrikson and Marlene Dietrich confused to answer a question incorrectly anyway, the third quarter features some Pick & Roll gamesmanship and the teams struggle with a well-crafted Missing Link round.
