Brain Ladle Trivia

Previously on Brain Ladle Trivia... we had the first episode of this year's Brain Ladle Invitational Tournament aka the BLITT (Guitar Solo).  On this week's episode, Nabs & Ava, Dan, Beth and Jane will take on the MC Davo to see where they rank in this year's tournament.  Will someone take the lead and become the favorite to win the coveted Brain Ladle Trivia hoodie?  Turn in to find out!

Welcome back to the latest Brain Ladle Invitational Trivia Tournament, aka the BLITT (guitar solo).  We've got an amazing assortment of Patrons who have been invited to take on this tricky TV themed game.  We've got Asha, Cheyanne, Bettina, and Aunt Nanci taking on the Master Ladler Twy for all the glory and the chance for Brain Ladle Merch and, of course, the coveted Ladle of Shame.  Tune in for a great and challenging time! Same BLITT Time, Same BLITT Channel!

I met this six-year-old Podcast with this blank, pale emotionless face and...the blackest quizzes...the devil's quizzes... I spent eight years trying to reach them and then another seven trying to keep them locked up because I realized what was living behind Nicole's quiz was purely and simply... evil! Boo!

This episode, Ross (with help from Ashley, though she denies it) has a mystery theme that will put our gang against the ropes.  Will they be able to regain their stamina in time to finish or will Ross's quiz deliver the TKO?

In this episode, Bettina takes over hosting duties as she brings a delightful quiz all about the most important thing in real estate...Location, location, location!  WIll the ladlers be able to go toe to toe with this fun little quiz or will they get lost in the woods.  Only one way to find out. (And that way is listening to the podcast if you haven't figured that out yet).

In this episode, Blake delivers a quiz about prisons and Aunt Nanci subs in for Twy.  Now, I wish I could tell you that Davo and the others fought the good fight and Blake's quiz let them be.  I wish I could tell you that, but prison is no fairy-tale quiz.

The amazing Aunt Nanci has served up a fun little mystery theme quiz for the gang.  Who will solve it and who will be left behind in the dust?  (Hint: One of the ladlers isn't very good at mystery themes so you can rule them out.)

Happy Women's History Month.  This episode is a celebration of the contributions made by great women from history with a quiz hosted by Twy and built by her WoMENSA group (Bettina, Ashley, Nicole and Leigh).  Sensei and Arthur join Kels and Davo to fight it out man to man to prove who knows the most about women.  Also, Arthur gets to feel the full fury of Hai Karate and the dreaded Karate Chop!

Happy St. Patrick's Day, Brain Ladlers!  I hope you are wearing green or LB5K will have to pinch you.  This episode finds Allie revisiting her favorite subject, Ireland.  This time, she got a little help from Albert.  Now, her brother-in-law and the rest of the team will see if they have a little luck of the Irish to take on this Erin Go Bragh themed quiz.

This episode is our funkiest to date.  And with Davo and Producer Arthur not available, we had to rely on Funkmeister Ian from Verhampshire to bring in the noise and bring in the funk.  Though this quiz from Leigh isn't what you think it is.  And stay tuned for after the outtakes for a special clip for all our fans out there.

For all you fried chicken and Churchill Downs fans, this quiz is for you!  Built by friends of the show Eric and Albert (not Arthur), this Kentucky themed quiz has 11 herbs and spices to make your mouths water.  And taking over the Davo answering questions duties is Skillet Brew's own Chris Brewer!

It's that time of year again. That time when Twy, with the help of Leigh and Bettina, deliver a quiz that celebrates some of the greatest achievements in our shared history.  This year, she's offering a little help for Davo.  Will he rise to the challenge?

We're a little late for Valentine's Day.  Sorry to our Brain Ladlers out there.  You are still our valentines, and so instead of getting you a cheap teddy bear and those chalky candy hearts with the words on them we got at the local gas station, we are bringing this love themed quiz from Ross and Ashley.  Twy is out, but Arthur is ready to step in and bring the love.

This time, it's personal. Though, the other times have been personal as well.  Either way, let's celebrate our 400th episode with a little sweep the leg.  Who will reign supreme and who's going down?  You got a problem with that?

The one and only Nabs has put together a terrific soccer themed Australian rules quiz for the gang. Twy is out nursing a hamstring injury so we've got Producer Arthur subbing in.  Will he rise above the others and stand atop the trivia parthenon or will he totally crash out and embarrass himself? (Spoiler Alert: It's the latter)

This week's episode, the wonderful Elizabeth (or Lisbet) brings us a unique music themed quiz with some fun categories that will have you humming.  Will the gang be able to sing its praises or will this be their swan song?  Cue the music!

Frenemy Trivia's Britney Shaw joins us to take on a quiz delivered by Davo's own beloved Emily.  Each answer will start with a different letter of the alphabet.  WIll it be filled with Awesome or just a bunch of Zingers.  Only one way to find out.

The second week of 2026 brings us an episode that was left in the vault.  It's a mystery theme featuring good ol' Producer Arthur as a contestant.  Does he have what it takes to solve Elizabeth's tricky mystery quiz?

Welcome to 2026! And there's no better way to celebrate a new year than by asking trivia questions about the old one.  The Brain Ladle Brain Trust has curated a quiz that will give you fond memories of the year that was.

Hello, Brain Ladlers.  Enjoy this final episode of 2025 with one of our greatest running bits - Davo's Infamous Post It.  Leigh and Albert join forces with the Sensei for a quiz that will test to see if Davo's Post It note actually helped him or not.

Happy holidays from all of us at Brain Ladle Trivia.  This episode features a Christmas mystery theme getting stuffed into the Brain Ladle stocking.  Big thanks to Santa John for writing this magical quiz!

This is another fun quiz from Ross and Ashley.  If you don't know what a portmanteau is, well, your favorite podcast will help you figure it out.  Whether you are enjoying brunch across from your motel or having a staycation while the smog rolls in, this episode will work wonders for you when you're feeling hangry for some edutainment.

This week, we invite Chris from the Pub Trivia Experience to try his hand at a little quiz about booze in honor of his awesome podcast, Boozy Bracketology.  Will the guys be sober enough to tackle this tricky quiz produced by the Sensei?  Grab your best hangover cure and join us for a little hair of the dog that bit us.

Leigh, famous for her history quizzes, brings a new one for the gang all about the Middle Ages.  Since this is what Davo got his degree in, will he rise to the top or will poor Leigh be assaulted with a barrage of angry babies?

One of our favorite non-Brain Ladle trivia hosts, Carmela Smith (Four Play, Trivia Warfare), joins the gang with a quiz curated by the Sensei (featuring questions by Leigh, Ian, and Nabs) in honor of our guest.  In this episode, we're talking about the number four and we're ready to play.

Our favorite Halloween host, Bettina, returns for the spooky season.  This year, she's got a Halloween quiz with a literary bent.  Will our gang be able to face their fears and tackle these horror questions?

We are into game 4 of Down Under Trivia Tournament, known as the DUTT (Oooow!).  In this episode, we jump into our wayback machine and check out the funkiest era of them all.  But the big question, is "will our gang be able to keep Nicole's trivia evilness at bay?"

Get your passport out for this week's installment of the Down Under Trivia Tournament.  The gang will face another Nicole quiz, this time focussed on movies from around the world.  Who will go the Full Monty and score 400 Blows and who will only score 8 1/2? (And if you got those references, then this is the quiz for you!)
