Last Call Trivia Podcast

Last Call Trivia Podcast is a weekly show that features questions that previously appeared at live Trivia Nights in bars and restaurants across the U.S. We believe the most exciting part of Trivia Night is the discussion that the questions spark and the connections those conversations create. That's why the Last Call Trivia Team focuses on "showing their work" and talking through their journey to the answer. Each game starts off with one round of general knowledge Trivia, followed by a "bonus question." The second round of Trivia is themed toward a specific topic each week. Then, the game wraps up with a multi-part final question. Get ready to join in on the Last Call Trivia Team to see how far your curiosity can take you!
