Pub Quizzes: The Nation's Favourite 'Brit of Fun'!

from Garlic & Pearls

Biros at the ready as Suzanne takes Muriel on a tour of a very British obsession: the pub quiz. Did it begin on a mythical night in Yorkshire in 1946? Is it one of the primary ways in which the British relate to each other socially? And if so, why? Can the Zoom quiz be credited for keeping the nation together during Covid? Are the best pub quizzes, Suzanne asks, ultimately where the British sense of terroir is located? Warning: this episode contains a veritable avalanche of punning. What's your team name, by the way? The Spanish Inquizzition? I Am Smartacus? Or simply: Quizzy McQuizface? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
