The Benchwarmers Trivia Podcast

New guest Clint Fitch, who is apparently part bat, becomes the first BTP participant to play an entire episode upside down for this Snyder-hosted game. Ede proclaims 1) his rec league lied to him when they said no participants can have the physical ability to dunk, and 2) he is an avid runner...virtually. The card collectors among us salivate over a one-of-one, OG ligament card from the recently deceased UCL repair pioneer (Too soon?). In the Ocho or Stinko halftime, Bohmbach questions his life choices, and Walling finds a new sport to train for. New characters are revealed in the fourth as Walling approximates a nameless, impatient, hunched-over, vaguely Eastern European old man, and Snyder reveals his alter ego as Mr. No-Depth Perception, captured on video grainier than the Zapruder film. Finally, Clint reveals that he chewed a 38-year-old candy bar, along with gum from the 80s that tasted like Reaganomics. #lougehrig #idontwannadrivesixmilesletalonerun #zapruderfilm #reaganomics #batboy #itsnotbrainsurgery #theantiwoman https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

An action packed episode of BTP sees Dave host a game full of shenanigans with returning guest and brother, Tom Wortz, teaming up with Luks against the Benchwarmer team of Scott and Snyder. Scott shares his basketball stat line, Snyder is full of non-sequiturs, Tom needs some rules, and Luks is just old. The boys have some MVP fun, get a little theatrical in halftime, and end on some of the most random questions Dave can drum up. We like to believe that Tom said it best: "I didn't think there would be BS on question 2!" Well, guess what?

Assistant Coach Scott Hyland retuned to the Bench to team with Dave and take on Bohmbach and Mason in this Markkus-hosted game. Early on, this was dubbed the "Fraud Episode" and it was declared that "You're going to jail!" We learned that Keegan Michael Key was 2026 Big Ten Freshman of the Year, that AJ Styles sounds like a wrestler, that Dave Wortz is not on this list, and that nobody wanted to do a Jamaican accent. #ivorycoast #fraud #jail #keeganmichaelkey #bigten #ajstyles #jamaica #jonqueljones https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

It's a hotshot Triple Threat match as Scott, Markkus, and Dave battle it out, where the champ does not have to be pinned to lose his title. It is clear from the first question of the game that Hulk Hogan would not approve; we posit that Bohmbach definitely drives a milk truck; we discuss our favorite Systems; we open up a can of clams; and a little Spanish boy declares, "I'm taller! Yay." #brandonphillips #markellis #pod #saliva #nigeriandrummatch #wwe #aew #tna https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

OG Assistant Coach Trevor Hogg returned to the Bench to host this game, which pitted Bohmbach and Dave versus Mason and Snyder. During this episode, we mused about what a Post-modern Pentathlon would entail, we learned about legendary college football coach Herman Twoadays,  we got to experience a temporary team name change during halftime ("Two Masons, One Team"), we came to an agreement that there are too many initialisms, and Bohmbach asserted that he "went to school with some real Todds, not just the proverbial Todds." Lastly, we ponder the question, "How does Randy Johnson get so small?" #airbud #endgame #thefateofbuddythedog #todd #initialisms #nftg #nsfw #phrasing #xfiles #randyjohnson #small  https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

New guest and friend of the Podcast Kyle Molitor (no relation to Paul) joins the Bench to team with Walling to face Markkus and Scott.  Our guest fits in well by missing part of a question - and calling himself for a 2-minutes for skimming penalty.  We have other misreads - the clues says Lager, not Logger!  We also learn about the lead singer of Lipps, Inc.  And let's just watch our pronunciation when we discuss the Big Blocks guys. #chiefs #scooby #paulmolitor #twominutesforskimming #lager #logger #lippsinc  https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Snyder hosts as Dave and Bohmbach take on Gabe Pulver and Jamie Hirsh from the Menschwarmers podcast in a game featuring Jewish Sports Quarterly All-Stars. Gabe names Bohmbach a “Mike Jacobs All-Star” (sounds Jewish but isn’t), along with hammer toss champ Ethan Katzberg. In the first quarter, Luks reveals Bob Geldof’s unknown child, Zach, and Gabe recalls Charles Barkley racing Dick Bavetta.  During a second-quarter Missing Link, Gabe remembers Remember the Titans, and guesses that the Jewish link might somehow be related to papal names.  In halftime, we learn that Nemo’s dad came up with the theory of relativity, and that the star of a Fish Called Wanda could have been Jamie Lee …Schwartz??? The third quarter sees both teams go deep in the very shallow pool of Jewish Quarterbacks, as the Menschwarmers unwrap the kimono on Scott Zolak, and query (quite un-Jewishly, I might add) that if Charlie Whitehurst was clipboard Jesus, was his dad David “clipboard God”? In a very Luks moment, David makes a pop culture reference to Allan Sherman, who did “Harvey and Sheila.”  The Menschwarmers answer at least two questions correctly because of Jewish Geography, and while kibbitzing in the fourth quarter, David shares that, contrary to popular belief, he was not at the 1946 All-Star Game, because it was his Bar Mitzvah.  No one gets Snyder’s clue on the last question, and we end by exchanging misdelivered mail.  #philiproth #riseball #demardiedforthis #Jewishgeography #MichaelJordon #LuksisBostonPops   *For a glossary of Jewish terms and phrases used in this episode, go to https://tinyurl.com/Menschwarmers   https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach John Ross returns to the Bench in this Tako-hosted game. In this episode, Walling assures us that they have medicine for that, Dave tries to get us all in trouble with HR for Googling things that should not be Googled at work, Scott turns into Benchwarmers Icarus with his soccer and Mark Wahlberg hubris, both teams attempt to 3-2-1 Nik Stauskas for the first time in podcast history, and we posit the theory that Post Malone and Willie Cauley-Stein could actually be the same person. #bellbivdevoe #olindomare #radickey #google #nsfw #icarus #markwahlberg #nikstauskas #postmalone #williwcauleystein https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coaches Adrian Bias and Jerry Filbin join Dave and Mason on the bench for a Snyder-hosted game that starts out a little like a certain Zach Galifianakis show. After Jerry informs us that Brendan Sorsby has been banned from NFL Europe, the Missing Link is, well, very missing. In the second, Adrian knows CBA players, and Dave gets irate with the NHL original 6, and with Jerry for knowing the Goliath answers without telling him.  Appropriately, we take a halftime trip to the liquor store, where Jerry extols an answer for “tasting good coming back up”.  In the “Let it Ride” third, Dave inaugurates the Roman Reigns Award for Best Practice Squad Defensive End.  After some complicated wagering in the fourth, Snyder clues a bonus question with references to moose and diabetes, leading Dave to declare: I have one of those! And leading the rest of the crew to inquire: You have a moose? #everythingchanges #Moussadiabate #namepolynesians #messysabreball https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach Marc Grenier returns to the Bench to team with Scott and compete against Bohmbach & Tako. In the first quarter, the teams managed to have an obvious answer with a "3-2-1 Response", and then soon after, a difficult question brings them to a "1-2-3 Silence." David is criticized for his questions (blasphemous!) as Tako implies David doesn't know what difficult is, and then later Scott jumps the gun on an answer that David may not have thought through (again, blasphemous!). At one stage, Tako suggests we talk about Lynn Swann with the sole purpose of pissing off Markkus, and David accuses one team of just having the Wrong Long. Watch out for the return of Wemby Jones, and oh yes, if anyone is curious, mugs should still be available. #myanmar #321 #123 #blasphemous #lynnswann #wronglong #wembyjones #mugs https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Long-time guest, Benchie Award winner, and Equipment Manager for our Patreon team Chris Shen returns to the bench to host this great game! In this episode, we discuss women who take public transportation, reaffirm that Jon Heder is definitely not Tongan, and ask the eternal question, "What is the Powerslap of Curling?" #benchie #publictransportation #bobbyorr #jonheder #tongan #powerslap #curling https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach Sam Cook returns to the Bench for this Tako-hosted game. In this episode, Luks gets to hear the correct pronunciation of Chimere Dike, there is a game-changing Missing Link ruling, we briefly become a Benjamin Franklin podcast, there is a golf-hockey crossover that somehow doesn't involve Happy Gilmore, and Dave tries to recall an answer he learned while drunk. #chimeredike #missinglink #benjaminfranklin #happygilmore https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Longtime Supporter and Equipment Manager David Fudor returns to the Bench to team with Dave as the Mortarboard (NOT Motorboat) Double D's to take on the team of Bohmbach and Mason in this Snyder-hosted game. Dave invents the game of Strugball, which is played in Alabama rather than Quebec. The Odd One Out becomes 19th-Century Rules Odd One In as Bohmbach uncaps his veto pen, and Dave proclaims, "That is a LOT of sawdust!" When Snyder experiences technical difficulties during the halftime song quiz Pre-and-Post Game, David proclaims the answer is "The Sounds of SiLance Armstrong". Plus, Bohmbach RAPS! Snyder's fourth quarter lack of editing leaves Mason grasping for straws with a run of gems: "Can I click the hyperlink?"; "What is this - an escape room?"; "I don’t understand why all these capital letters are in here – this is how Donald Trump punctuates his sentences!"; and, at last, "Good old Bobby Grapefruit." In the end, just like after any good sporting event (as Dan would say), the clues leave both teams feeling dirty and needing a shower. #overunder #ballsports #oddonein #pomade #queensberries #eurostep #positivek #pantherpride #worldcup #bowlerhats https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Markkus has a rare hosting appearance in this game, featuring Luks and Assistant Coach Jerry Philbin competing against Snyder and Equipment Manager Hugh Gitlin. In this game, Jerry points out that one answer may have four ex-wives, just like his dad. Markkus stumps the teams with an obscure (Whooo?!) series of David v Goliath questions, and one player asks for his teammate to throw out the whitest name he knows. We also witnessed some guesses, like Man-o-Warren Moon and Emmanuel Mudiayvid Njoku.  Shockingly, both were wrong. #carolina #exwives #whooo #whitestname #manowar #warrenmoon #emmanualmudiay #davidnjoku https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach and podcast favorite Trevor Hogg returns to the Bench for this David-hosted game to team with Snyder to take on the team of Scott and Markkus. At the beginning of the game, Scott is happier to see David than he is with his new marriage - but that changes over the course of the game. Scott & Markkus figure it out early when they try to get inside David's head to second-guess his questions. Big shoutout later to Marfan Syndrome (don't ask!), and of course to Rabbi Rainwater.

Assistant Coach Tim Simplot returned to the Bench for this Bohmbach-hosted game to team up with Dave and face off against Walling and Snyder. Early on, Snyder claimed to be a "Glue Guy" who hopes not to be bound for the glue factory. One team opted to add an incorrect first name to a correct last name (in fact, it was the answer's brother), thus losing out on a critical 25 points. We learned that even God can't hit a 1-Iron and Dave just wanted to say "Gooch." We also had a return of the Stranger Things coin which helped a team get a correct answer. #glueguy #gluefactory #oneiron #gooch #stangerthings #macrosota #famousducks  https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach Sam Cook takes the host seat on the Bench with a slightly distracted crew thanks to the NFL Draft. The gang loses their mind before Sam does the first question as the Rams pick ... Ty Simpson?!!?

Head Coach Philip Sanford returned to the Bench for this Dave-hosted game to team up with Bohmbach and face off against Mason and Snyder. For the second episode in a row, we had quarters with multiple styles (Newsflash - Bohmbach doesn't mind these "shenanigans"). Dave struggled with the scoring spreadsheet (apparently, it's not foolproof), and only 25% of the players have seen the Mighty Ducks movies, which made one quarter rather difficult. Plus, we learned that Chris Gaines played baseball in college. #delicious #vaguelydirty #newsflash #shenanigans #mightyducks #chrisgaines https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

In this Tako-hosted all-Benchwarmer affair, Bohmbach and Ede team up with Walling and Dave. In this episode, we mix some trivia amid rampant slander of David Luks, who isn't here to defend himself. In other news, Walling doesn't attend the Masters, a tradition unlike any other; we refuse to dive into the debate of whether something is yacht rock or not, Bohmbach's favorite FTG makes an appearance, both teams throw in the towel because they were too tired and didn't feel like reading anymore, and after four hard-fought quarters, it all comes down to knowledge of Cynthia Cooper's WNBA career. #masters #yachtrock #ftg #tootired #cynthiacooper https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Returning guest and host Yael Wylie returns with a great game that pits Tako and Ede against Scott and Snyder. In this episode, the Benchwarmers fix NASCAR by making the drivers race barefoot and drive with actual moonshine liquor in the car, we remind everyone that Goon is a mindset and not a body type, we declare that "Linda is retired, and everyone's Jackson," and Snyder reminds everyone that only one person (not even his cousin Mike "Quickie" Lauda) can call him Josh Climax. #starzz #racecardrivers #icecube #lizzo #rodstewart #PWHL #tubularmeat #noshoes If you liked Yael's trivia, you can subscribe to his trivia zine at https://www.hellanerdy.games/the-symbol-reader, or come to his trivia nights at The Red Tail and El Lopo in San Francisco!  https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

BTP skips the mock draft just a fun chat about the 2026 Draft! 

Matt Coleman returns to the Bench after a long hiatus to team with Tako in a game facing Eric Walling and Josh Snyder. In the first quarter, one team rushes into an answer that may have cost them a question, but at least nets a clear joke opener about Alberto Del Rio, Dennis Pitta, and Plácido Domingo walking into a bar. In the 2nd quarter, Tako accurately points out that there isn't much to get out of a Drysdale. One team again invents old-timey baseball names, starting with good ol' Tungsten Arm Demetrius Lloyd. Finally, in desperation, one team had no choice but to posit that Horatio a.k.a Cap'n Crunch could very well have won a Heisman Trophy.

First-time guest Aaron Kessler joins the Bench for this Bohmbach-hosted game, teaming up with Snyder to take on Mason and Dave. Early on (and often), Mason called for Dave to be fact-checked, and we learned that Mason understands Copilot better than ChatGPT (#moviesavant). There was a discussion about the need for more pitchers with presidents' names like Richard Nixon Jeffries. Lastly, we determined that for Bears fans, 4,000 passing yards is like breaking the sound barrier, in that they understand that it is theoretically possible. #factcheck #copilot #kylemaclachlan #richardnixon #marioregretti #foreshadowing #chipmunks https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

First-time guest and Bay Areas enthusiast David Sibony teams with Ede against Luks and Tako for a Snyder-hosted game where questions are more complicated than they should be. Tako opens by recalling the largest man he has ever stood next to, and closes the first quarter by remarking that "this answer just sounds like a scam. It's a $1,500 Lite Brite." Ede stays in the bathroom, sharing that most of his life is poop related. In the second quarter and halftime, we learn that Luks had a college roommate from the first Baseball Hall of Fame Class; he ate a fish hot dog at Game 1 of the 1954 World Series; and finally our guest takes a shot by asking "was that show in black and white?" Finally, Luks himself shares his signed picture "To David Luks - I'm better than you, Antawn Jamison." In the third, Luks smells shenanigans as River, Turn and Flop returns and Ede questions if anyone cares about the Blues or Grizzlies, and that a certain MLB team's mascot is a D - oh never mind. In the fourth, it feels personal when we learn Bingo Smith retired rather than playing for the Mavericks. #ToothpasteCollege #ArgumentsAboutWizardOfOz #FlushableWipesAreNotFlushable #Riverturnflop #BioMax #OldBae https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach Vinnie Iyer returns to the Bench for a Tako-hosted game. In this episode, the Missing Link starts slow before a flood of knowledge, the players and the host feel Big Emotions during Curriculum Vitae (QUAY WALKER?!?!?!?!), we demand justice for Alanis Morissette during halftime, the teams navigate a tough Lucky 7 round with a little bit of gamesmanship, and, in the fourth quarter, we consider as an answer Benny the Jet's brother, Paulie "Walnuts" Rodriguez. Finally, we are reasonably confident that this episode is better than the nominees for the 1992 Emmy for Outstanding Drama Series. #worldbaseballclassic #teamitaly #yououghtaknow #seinfeld #sopranos #saturdaynightlive #lawandorder #oscars #emmys #grammys  https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Host Ede is back with another installment of the all-Benchwarmers series, and things get weird fast. We’ve got Snyder and Luks facing off against Markkus and Dave in a battle of wits (and questionable meat products). In this episode, we took a Deli Meat Deep Dive to investigate the legends of "Natural Ham" and "John Roast Beef." We envisioned hockey legend Berry Gordy, and got unexpectedly emotional about birthmark stories. We experienced the Spouse Takeover, where Ede got lazy and asked his wife to write an entire quarter of the game (OK, fine it was halftime). We imagined the Biopic Nobody Asked For, in which David Spade is destined to play Kurt Cobain. In the 3rd quarter, we experienced a Pop Culture Collision, as Dave identified our "Bad Bunny/Courtney Love" moment. Finally, during the "In Memoriam" 4th quarter: A somber (but hilarious) tribute, featuring a flurry of timely imitations from Markkus. #stuholtz #draftbusts #hiddenhockeyquestions #slowjohnson #quintoncoples #yamonfigurs #witharebelyelledewantsmooremooremoore   https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Markkus hosted this all-Benchwarmer game, pitting Bohmbach and Dave versus Mason and Walling. During this game, we had the first Let It Ride guilt trip after one team achieved a correct answer (a lucky guess to say the least) by thinking like Markkus. There was a debate on whether iKevin is a sequel to iRobot or iCarly and we were introduced to the Stranger Things coin for help with a fifty-fifty answer. We were introduced to "Out of Context" Dave and learned much about FSU legend Example Green.

Assistant Coach Jerry Filbin returned to the Bench to team up with Markkus and take on Walling and Dave in this Bohmbach-hosted game. During this game, like all games, David was catching strays and, early on, Markkus told the other team to "just check in, nerds!" We learned that an answer was definitively not Jamaica, and both teams struggled with a Missing Link theme that was not a difficult theme. Apparently, Walling has peed next to numerous famous people and we still can't get away from BBCs. #disneyland #nerds #jamaica #peed #bbc https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Snyder hosts an episode worthy of the mirth-filled holiday of Purim with another first-timer, Late Night writer and comedian Matt Goldich, who is the world's most polite sneezer. When Mason notes that the episode number is a perfect cube, Dave announces he is contently round, and in the first quarter he shares who is first team all-neck, while Matt corrects Snyder's faulty Phillies facts. In the second, Luks declares a name is "Frenchish" and has a Highlander moment when he proclaims that there can only be one Denny. Dave reassures us that "lots of men go through it." After a halftime tribute to Chris Berman, Snyder reveals a new quarter twist that may be Mason's favorite yet. In the fourth, we learn whose walkup music is "Humble" by the Lonely Island, and perhaps what, er, member of the team may be staring us right in the face. #asmr #penisgate #bellbivdevoe #fartowler #kicknastyllanos #bartswings #7hunkyolympianswithonlyfanspages https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Ageism rules again on the Benchwarmers Trivia Podcast as Luks continues to receive unprovoked strays related to his age. The team briefly discussed Luks' teammates at Pyramid University, and when Luks has his come to Moses (Malone?) moment. Still, the teams survive. Mason has a particularly low energy check-in (certainly not because he is perturbed by a question!). But after all, this is not Rocket Science!

Guest Zach Gozlan returned to the Bench for this Dave-hosted game.

Snyder hosts this episode with first-time guest Gabe Rubin, who teams with Luks to face off against Markkus and Dave, with Eiffel65 untz untzing in the background. We take a trip to the supermarket to see different types of Frosted Mini Wheats battle it out for cereal stardom with Wil and Kenny Wheaton, while Gabe's dad buys some macarons. Condiment king Markkus adds someone to his List while chatting up Sriracha Jones and Wasabi Wilson. A first trip to Dave's ring of rumination - "Aesop's Stables"  - yields results, but leaves him wishing for Motrin and Florence Nyquilgale. Luks declares that Paul Giamatti will play him in an upcoming biopic. In the third, Markkus goes back to his 2K knowledge well, and Gabe touts an offensive guru's uber-efficient three-and-out offense, which helps families get to dinner on time. After another soul and brain-crushing 4th quarter, both teams manage to 3-2-1 the final question for a satisfying finish. #askingdaddyalaskahowmanyalaskansheknows #allofvisantheshiancoe #freakycaulifowerears #ladiesdontdiggstefon #aesopsstables #westanenvogue #wheatwars #threeandoutoffense https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Scott hosts this all-Benchwarmer affair that pitted Bohmbach and Markkus against Ede and Dave. During the game there is discussion about a famous "Nut Grabber" and Markkus reveals he has issues with "that fat pig David Ortiz." We learn that Bohmbach is an NBA Draft sicko (at least for the 2023 draft thanks to a trading card addiction) and that Markkus's signature move, if he were allowed to participate in the Women's Royal Rumble, would be "The Bear Hug." Lastly, BTP introduces the new BBC segment to the pod (and that's Black-guy Baseball Corner, so don't be a perv). #portly #nutgrabber #fatpig #davidortiz #nbadraft #royalrumble #bearhug #bbc https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Luks hosts this all Benchwarmers game, but with no OG Benchwarmers, with Markkus and Dave facing off against Tako and Snyder. Tako declares early on that the whole episode is Bad Vibes, and he just might be right. Luks forgets to add a Missing Link and no one notices. Tune in to find out which Benchwarmer can't get Brooks Koepka out of his head, which declares that we are mowing down milk bottles (and apparently that's not a euphemism) and what Tako would rather do instead of hearing Glenn Jacobs (aka Kane) talk about Politics. And in a rare move, one team can't pass up a fantastic team name, and changes their team name halfway through the game.

Tim Geving, an OG supporter of BTP, returned to the Bench for this Bohmbach-hosted game that was dubbed "Josh's Festivus Game" (he aired many grievances). Tim declared that BTP is "just like riding a bike" during this game, and we learned that all Josh wants for Christmas is geographical continuity, that all roads lead to Daredevil...and Kansas City, and that nobody should seek out AI Pete Rose for betting advice.

David hosts this episode with first-time guest and Assistant Coach to our Patreon team Sam Cook. He may not know much about history, science books, or the French he took, but he clearly knows sports trivia. Meanwhile, the Benchwarmers crack out Sesame Street references and imitations. We also discovered just at which school Scott could play, who one NBA hall-of-famer's kid could play for, and ponder the all-important question:  How could Caillou be bald when he is 8 years old? Stand by for the egregious David question, with an egregious answer. Our guest may also enlighten us on just how many gang signs there are in the state of New Hampshire. #skidmarks #caillou #damonwayans #swampofsadness #blindsidebeatdown https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Trivia Hall of Famer Jay Borsom of Liquid Kourage Entertainment joined the Bench for the first time making BTP an OFFICIAL trivia podcast (TM). During this game, neither Josh could stop thinking about Charles in Charge (though maybe for different reasons #nicoleeggert), Bohmbach had an answer to a wrestling question before Dave, and we all pondered the question "Are you ready to throw 30 guys over the top rope?" #oopsallberries #hof #official #tm #charlesincharge #30guys https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Dan hosts the 5th annual fireside chat with his trivia friends Graig Zethner, Scott Barber, Gary Middleton, and special guest David Luks. Enjoy and happy holidays from BTP!!!

Our annual Holiday Episode is here... Join us for some good wholesome Holiday fun.... With one very special guest. 

Throwback Trivia Takedown host and Assistant Coach to our Patreon team Adam Speas returns to the bench to team with Scott to compete against Markkus and Snyder. We witness Luks mess up a question, while simultaneously trying to keep the teams on the rails (not likely), and we all learn about Nick Minicucci (who??). Most notably, our guest Adam throws the gauntlet down early, betting against himself! He promises to sample a different bourbon from his collection for each question that he actually knows an answer. Tune in to see just how much alcohol our guest imbibes. #ttt #bourbon #nickminicucci https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach Adrian Bias returns to the program, teaming up with Bohmbach to face Dave and...good God, that's Josh Snyder's music! In this episode, we start with #TooMuchMinnesota, Snyder shows up to make the save in his jammy jams, Tako gets a Josh Eyeroll over his Missing Link theme, we remember some cinematic football plays for halftime, Dave checks into the Hardball Hotel to rattle off another incredible baseball list, and the fourth quarter is a sandwich. #ZachMiller #HappyChanukah #sevenkidsinsevencities #TheAnnexationofPuertoRico #switch https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Rowan Ward returned to the Bench to team with Tako against Walling and Luks in a horsey-themed game hosted by Snyder. Much equine knowledge was shared, including the facts that all horses like shiny things and are descended from known horses, a famous racehorse may have worn a hairpiece, and there's no rule that says a horse can't play baseball. In the field of horticulture (not related to madams, Walling) we learned that all babies look like potatoes, and if the Black Eyed Peas said something, it must be true. David and Walling are stumped on the Missing Link because David can only remember four things at a time and Walling is stuck on first-person shooters when he's not stuck on jellyfish. #phillipriversstudfee #bigbeautifultimemachine #luksonthe1869chaingang #lilsebastianjanikowski https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

This all-Benchwarmer affair, hosted by Bohmbach, pitted the OG team of Scott & Mason versus the New School team of Dave & Snyder. In this episode, Mason travelled back to 1995 after hitting his F1 key, Bohmbach gave a trigger warning to Dan AFTER reading a question (what a knucklehead - sorry Dan), we were forced to imagine John Clayton and Clay Aiken as cornerbacks for the 1990s Cowboys, and lastly we pondered, "What is woodstick?" #willsmith #og #newschool #knucklehead #johnclayton #clayaiken #cowboys #woodstick #ritchievalens #landocalrissian #randyandyanderson https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach Trevor Hogg returned to the bench, along with Benchbro Tommy Wortz for this Snyder-hosted game. Both teams took ABBA-themed names for no apparent reason. Tommy asked if "Saturn Nuts" means what we all think, and Scott decided that Bae-Blade had to be the nickname of Wesley Snipes’ wife. Local connections between Trevor and Tommy were revealed, leading David to ask "What’s a Wilmer?" Snyder's second quarter again saps the teams, as Trevor remarks "Mamma Mia - I'm all out of brain power". A new halftime style with audio clips leads to more Luks overthinking...or does it? Tommy can't read, but neither can Snyder by the end of the game. As Tommy turns heel, the Benchwarmers confidently(?) reveal their shoe sizes. #lukewarmloyvaught #icantreadeither #themissinglink #ifyoucantsaycolloquially #allthepelinkasicanthinkof #abba                                                                                                                     https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Assistant Coach Scott Hyland returned to the Bench for this Dave-hosted game. In this episode, Dave scored a trifecta with three Whooo?! calls from Bohmbach, Snyder checked in with the semi-inappropriate answer of Ronal...do's Nuts, we learned that a certain fast food franchise has items in Milwaukee that don't seem to exist anywhere else #shakegate, there are apparently 123 ABA teams that completed at least one game last season, and lastly we pondered on this question, "Is ChatGPT racist?" #bwaba #6-7 #powersofjosh #whooo #ronaldo #milwaukee #chatgpt https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Ede hosts this game, pitting the first-ever pairing of the Benchwarmer Daves vs. Scott & Equipment Manager of our Patreon team, John Ross. In this game, Luks & Wortz nearly pull off the biggest backup truck answer ever, and in the same round, John and Scott have one of the most awkward misses ever. When John recovers, he points out that it really doesn't take much to get minutes with the Sacramento Kings when he says, "I'm close to getting minutes with the Kings". We also get to an all-time Bermanism: Al Iafrate No Ghost. Also, find out who we deem to be a ColorALdo (sic) legend. #woodyjohnson #backuptruck #sacramentokings #aliafrate #alharrington #rikspitz https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

Trey Cleeter returns to the Bench, teaming up with Scott against Bohmbach and Dave in a Tako-hosted game. In this episode, Dave and Bohmbach attempt to spoil a future question with their team name, Scott and Trey have to decide on an answer between one-fourth of Petey Pablo's Freek-a-Leek, Dave does one of the more impressive things ever heard on the Benchwarmers Trivia Podcast, we talk a lot of smack about Field of Dreams, and we consider what a world would be if Greg Norman were a football coach. #ohio #bodydonnas #chrispratt #oscartavares #lisasalters #soulpatrol #peteypablo #yungjoka #fieldofdreams #gregnorman https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

David hosts this episode, featuring Equipment Manager Ian Hollenberg, teaming with Walling, competing against Scott and the newest Benchwarmer, Josh Snyder. The teams struggle early with some rhyming scheme issues, until Snyder points out to Scott that they aren't obligated to rhyme when they talk to each other. Snyder and Scott wonder whether it is possible that there was actually a player named Ding Dong. The team also tries to fit a theme with players such as Tommy Discovery, Johnny Bravo, or the under-appreciated FX Robinson.  Please tune in to see if Scott and Snyder can actually get out of the cesspool of loss, or off the Schnyder. And remember: when it comes to some sports, humans don't do the sport, the horse does. #chuckwoolery #heismantrophy #rhymingishard #dingdong #johnnybravo #offtheschnyder https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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

New guest Matt Fraier joined the Bench for this game hosted by Josh (the non-rabbi). In this episode, Matt calls Dave "Rude!" after a shot is taken at Murray State, Walling doesn't think that Will Shipley had a dad..., Mason would like us to stay away from John Popper, Dave and Mason were stuck on double letters, and Dave stated during the Halftime Show that "I don't like that." #samcassell #hpnotiq #hennessey #nonrabbi #rude #murraystate #willshipley #johnpopper #doubleletters #idontlikethat https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint 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
