The Benchwarmers Trivia Podcast

EP 273: All my Expos live in Texpos (featuring Assistant Coach Adrian Bias)

Assistant Coach Adrian Bias returns to the bench for this Tako-hosted game. In this episode, the players are immediately put on edge with an all-golf first quarter; we discuss Scandanavian name origins, and how "it's gonna have a lot of vowels in it"; Scott and Adrian create the first all-athlete boy band, The Really New Edition; we play a quarter that is somehow five different quarter styles; and ultimately, we don't like change. #markthatcher #africa #kennyrogers #dollyparton #juvenile #thechallenge 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 272: The Adventures of Net Man, World's Most Boring Superhero. (featuring Equipment Manager Hugh Gitlin)

Equipment Manager Hugh Gitlin retuns to the bench in this Luks-hosted game. Hugh teamed with Eric to take on the duo of Scott & Mason. Despite his many appearances, Hugh still doesn't quite get the audio medium, imitating one player's batting stance, and sharing his recent gift from the MS-150 bike ride. The teams have a chance to play name generation for old-timey baseball names. Walling searches his roldoex for exercise names, and notes that one person clearly sounds like they were at Hogwarts. Scott also wishes for a new Disney show, "That's So David!". (it's not going to happen). And finally, our guest visits Hugh's Hideaway to come away with an answer. 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 271: Like a Lollipop Got Dropped in a Barber Shop (featuring Assistant Coach Scott Hyland)

Assistant Coach Scott Hyland returned to the Bench for this Josh-hosted game. In it we learned that all four players would have dinner with a living baseball player if given the opportunity, that the players ponder if there is such a thing as a hereditary foot fetish, that Scott (Grimes) made reference to Dan's Benchwarmer grave, that Markkus thinks snooker sounds too much like a slur, that Scott (Hyland) wants the ChatGPT halftime to be retired, that Walling may agree with that sentiment as he responded "I hate that...go with it" to one of said halftime questions, and that Walling asked of his teammate, "Scott, name a country." #lollipop #barbershop #jonathanlucroy #shirsey #reggiewayne #waynebrady #hereditary #footfetish #grave #snooker #slur #chatgpt #nameacountry 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 270: It's a Hidden Hocker Question (featuring Assistant Coach Tim Geving)

Assistant Coach Tim Geving returns to the Bench and teams up with Mason to face Markkus & Matt in this Ede-hosted game. In it, we learned that Tim & Mason don't want to get canceled, the Missing Link is not about people with huge hogs, a Weird Al-free halftime still has the teams singing, and the teams need a measuring stick for the Sporting Haikus round. #Prefontaine #Postfontaine #SimoneBiles #56inches #SlenderManOnSkates #PileOfHumanWaste #YouTakeTheGoodYouTakeTheBad #BJJ 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 269: PUPa - Pennsylvania University of Pennsylvania (featuring Assistant Coach Vinnie Iyer)

Assistant Coach Vinnie Iyer returns to the Bench for a Tako-hosted game. In this episode, we think about robust goatees, Josh's innocent mind doesn't consider the implications of a Bald Johnson, we pitch potential impressions for Markkus that have a slightly smaller tongue than Shannon Sharpe, wonder if Quentin Tarantino is a nepo baby, and get nostalgic about Sports Illustrated for Kids. #shannonsharpe #interiordecorating #taylorswift #baldjohnson #geography 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 268: Definitely a Left-Hander

Eric Ede hosted this all-Benchwarmer game where we learned the following: that Eric only missed one syllable during his Sporting Haiku quarter, that the worst Missing Link performance resulted in both teams getting points (after talking it out together and throwing out a guess at the very last second), that Scott couldn't stop thinking about Kamala catching touchdown passes from Jameis Winston, that both Josh and Scott were canceled during the recording, and that Josh finally got wheelhouse questions with another "Weird Al" Halftime Show. #lefthander #syllable #haiku #missinglink #kamala #jameiswinston #weirdal #halftimeshow 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 267: Michael Cera, Offensive Coordinator (featuring Assistant Coaches John Ross & Dave Brown)

First-time guest (and Assistant Coach) John Ross is joined by returning guest (and Assistant Coach) Dave Brown to play this Markkus-hosted game. In this episode, we pitch a sequel to The Program, which is mostly just paperwork; we pay tribute to the Humble Oracle, David Luks; John tries his best to give away an answer, but Matt and Dave refuse to take it; Tako is triggered by mentions of the 2002 World Series; Jason Williams and Rampage Jackson are not answers despite our best efforts; and Dak Prescott isn't as bad as the Erics make him out to be. #michaelcera #theprogram #worldseries #jasonwilliams #rampagejackson #dakprescott #albuquerque #timberwolves #javier #timotheechalamet #cowboysquarterbacks #snick 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 266: The Biggest Knob...on His Bat (featuring Equipment Managers Ian Hollenberg and Jerry Filbin)

It's a double guest episode! Equipment Manager Ian Hollenberg guests hosts a fantastic game, and Equipment Manager Jerry Filbin makes his BTP debut! Also making his BTP debut (in name only): Chris Duhon. In this episode, Ede foreshadows a tall tennis player, actors change their names and get skinny for attention, Jim Joyce tries to derail yet another perfect game, and despite multiple WNBA questions, Sheryl Scoopes is still not the answer.

EP 265: You Were Right to be Thinking of White Guys (featuring Assistant Coach Tim Simplot)

Assistant Coach Tim Simplot returned to the Bench for this Josh-hosted game. In it we learned that with a Minnesota guest Josh reverted to his old ways (#toomuchminnesota), that he also inadvertently leaned into Mason's wheelhouse (#toomuchlsu), that ChatGPT has a time travel issue (#toomuchtimetravel), that both Markkus and Mason had to sort out UConn guards, that Dennis Green played the drums, that Al can also be a women's nickname, and that, for the first time in BTP history, a guest sent trivia questions to the host during play. #whiteguys #bigten #minnesota #lsu #chatgpt #timetravel #uconn #dennisgreen #drums #al #guesttrivia 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
