Grab the keys and let’s hit the road for some trivia. This week, continuing our Halloween theme, we’ve got Supernatural Trivia. This show ran for a long time and has a huge fan following.

Tres bien, it’s time for the Olympics and this year’s host city is Paris, France. So, to make sure you’re thoroughly prepared, I have not one, not two, but five bonus episodes about the games. Today’s episode is Paris Trivia. 

Get your brains ready and sound cool to your friends and coworkers with ten questions about the city of lights. 

I’m your host, Brian Rollins, this is the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast and let’s get started. 

Get your cheese plate ready, we’re going to Wisconsin.

That’s right gang, this is episode 192 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast and we’ve got a heaping helping of Wisconsin Trivia for you.

If you’re new to our show, welcome. We have a thirty question and answer game every week on a different topic. This season, we’re making our way through all 50 states.

If you’re looking for score cards or rules, check out DorkyGeekyNerdy.com and we’ll get you set up.

That covers the necessities of the show, so let’s begin.

We’ve got Carolina on our minds this week. Specifically, North Carolina.

Hey gang, this is episode 202 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. I’m your host, Brian Rollins and this week, it’s North Carolina Trivia that we’re covering.

As always, we’ve got three rounds of ten questions each. I ask, you get a timer, then we see how you did. Simple enough? I think so.

With that, let’s start things off.

Grab your hat and whip, it’s time to go adventuring for trivia. 

Hey gang, it is episode 231 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. This week, we’re diving into the depths of Indiana Jones trivia.

With the new movie coming out this weekend, why not revisit the world’s most famous, fictional archaeologist. It’s three rounds of ten questions each, just like we do every Wednesday.

If you need rules or a score card, visit DorkyGeekyNerdy.com. You can also find out how to support the show. 

OK, sounds like the boulder is on its way, so we had best get going. 

Are you using the right word? In our text-heavy world, it’s easy to use the wrong version of a homophone. What are homophones? Homophones are words that sound the same but are spelled differently. Like to, too, and two. 

How this works is I’ll give you the clue and you just give me the homophone. I won’t make you spell it. If you’re curious about the spelling, you can see the show’s transcript on DorkyGeekyNerdy.com. 

Grab some crabs and let’s dig in. It's time for some Maryland Trivia for our second episode of Season Four. I've been here a few times and it's a wonderful, delightful place. I recommend visiting if you can. From Ocean City to Hagerstown, Maryland is a wonderful, varied place.

Maryland Trivia (like all our episodes) features three rounds of ten questions each. A Dorky Round, a Geeky Round, and a Nerdy Round. You've got five seconds to answer each question. Good luck!

When you finish up Maryland Trivia, you can head back to New York State trivia (or any episode you like). We also need your feedback on this and every show. Zip on down to the bottom of this page and you'll find our patent-pending, super-short two-question feedback form. Let us know what you think.

Our penultimate state!

Hey gang, I’m your host, Brian Rollins, and this is episode 211 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. We’re getting ready to wrap things up with Kansas Trivia. Next week, we’ve got one more state and then it’s off to the season finale.

If you’re new, welcome to the show. Every week, I give you a brand new episode with thirty trivia questions on a given topic. This season it’s been all 50 states.

If you need a transcript of the show or want to find out more, visit DorkyGeekyNerdy.com for all that.

Sound good? OK, then let’s get this show on the road.

Do you have a plan to score well on today's episode? Well, good luck with this week's show, Battlestar Galactica Reboot Trivia. We're heading back to the days of 2004 before we had any idea of what this reboot of a 1970s show would look like. Have fun and see you again next week!

Update: I had the episode in the can when the news came in about the passing of Dean Stockwell, who played John Cavill on the show. Dean Stockwell had a wide and varied career with many roles we geeks would love from Dune to Quantum Leap. RIP, Mr. Stockwell. You will be missed.

A little side-note, the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Shop is now open! Get some merch from the show (and keep it going).

When you're done with Battlestar Galactica Reboot Trivia, we need your feedback. Use the quick little form below to let us know what you thought of today's show. There's a similar form on every episode, so don't be shy.

They're blaring out of stores and radios, so why not have a little Christmas Song Trivia to kick off the season. This week, I'm giving you a snippet of the lyrics and you've got to guess the song. Some are common tunes and others are more obscure, traditional ones.

Either way, I think everyone is going to have a little fun. Grab some egg nog and let's get started.

Feel like cheating? Here's a Spotify Playlist with all the songs on it.

When you're done with Christmas Song Trivia, please take a moment to review the show on iTunes or Podchaser. We need to those votes and support to help boost the show. There's also a little bit more time before Christmas to order some Dorky Geeky Nerdy merchandise. That's a great way to support the show and help pay our bills.

Other than Name That Christmas Song Trivia, what other holiday-themed episodes would you like to hear next year?

Time to get your chakras unblocked because it’s trivia time. Hey gang, this is episode 242 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. This week, we’ve got a fan request, Avatar: The Last Airbender Trivia. 

As we do every week, it’s three rounds of ten questions each. If you have a need for rules or score cards, check out DorkyGeekyNerdy.com. 

If you’re joining the show via YouTube, please leave a like and subscribe if you haven’t already. 

I think that covers the basics, so let us begin. 

What’s up doc? It’s time for some Looney Toones Trivia!

I figured after battling our way through Westeros, it was time for something a little lighter and we could all use a laugh from Bugs, Daffy, Tweety, and the whole gang. Follow the Looney Tunes characters through the many decades with thirty trivia questions and see how well you stack up.

Hint for next week’s episode: “What superhero team first ‘assembled’ in 1963?“

I got rhythm. Well, I have ten questions about famous drummers. This one was a fan request, and I loved the idea. So, Jordan, if you’re listening, you owe Jennie. 

And now, let’s get going. 

Become a patron of the show and get ad-free episodes.

For those about to trivia…we salute you!

This week, we are mixing it up on the Naming games and going back to the 1980s for some rocking tunes. I give you the song, you tell me the band that sang it.

February is Black History Month and we’re celebrating the only way we know how: With trivia! Specifically, Black Panther Trivia.

The first “mainstream” black comic book character, Black Panther is a proud, noble, and thoroughly awesome superhero. We’ve got thirty trivia questions to test your knowledge of the superhero, his enemies, his friends, and his many incarnations.

This week, we also have a little PSA. In 2020, we lost Black Panther star, Chadwick Boseman to Colon Cancer. If you’re like me and getting close to turning 50, it’s time to start thinking about getting checked for Colon Cancer. It’s not fun, but it’s an easy way to prevent this disease. Doctors recommend when you turn 50, you get screened. If you have a family history of cancer, particularly Colon Cancer, you might want to get screen earlier than that. Losing such an excellent actor and man in Boseman is tough. We can honor his life by taking note and taking care of ourselves and our loved ones.

And here ends the PSA. I hope you and your families are doing well. We’ll be back again next week with more trivia fun, just like Black Panther Trivia. I promise.

What’s up? It’s time for some trivia.

Hey dudes and dudettes, it’s episode 204 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. I’m your host, Brian Rollins, and this week, we’ve got California Trivia.

It’s big. It’s beautiful. And it’s chock full of history, geography, and a lot of pop culture. It’s also where I was born and grew up. So, I’m excited to share it with you.

As always, it’s three rounds of ten questions each. I ask the question, you get a timer, then I’ll give you the answer. If you need rules or scorecards, visit the show’s website: DorkyGeekyNerdy.com. You’ll also find transcripts of the show as well as ways to help support DGN.

That covers the basics, so let’s get going

It’s time to start thinking about our golden years. This week, for episode 284 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia podcast, I have Golden Girls trivia. Not glamorous, but fun. And I know this has had a resurgence in popularity in the last few years, so why not have thirty questions about the 80s sitcom. 

I’m your host, Brian Rollins, and let’s start the show. 

Love it or hate it, we’re got the first movies of the sequel trilogy this week.

Hey gang, I’m your host, Brian Rollins and this week, we’ve got Star Wars: The Force Awakens Trivia on tap. The new movies were divisive to say the least. But we covered the other six movies in the Skywalker saga, so it only stands to reason we hit Episodes 7-9.

As always, it’s three rounds of ten questions each. I ask the questions, you get a timer, and then we settled up. Sound good? Great. Then let’s get started.

Are you ready to rock? How about some 70s Band Trivia? This week, we give you three song titles from the 1970s, you just have to guess the band. Simple and yet not-so-simple. Just like we did for the 80s, you have to guess what band sang the songs.

Don't worry, we'll cover other decades in future episodes, so stay tuned.

Welcome to episode 261 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. This week, I have thirty questions about that alien superhero, Martian Manhunter. While not as popular as the rest of his friends, he is a prominent figure in comics, and I’d be remiss if I didn’t have an episode for him.

And now, let’s start the show.

Time to head out where the wind comes sweeping down the plains.

Hey gang, I’m your host Brian Rollins and this is episode 196 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. This week, we’ve got Oklahoma Trivia.

If you’re new to the show, welcome. Every week we’ve got thirty trivia questions on a new topic. This season, it’s all about the US states. If you’d like to learn more about the show, visit DorkyGeekyNerdy.com. You can find scorecards, rules, and how to support the show, if you’re so inclined.

That covers the basics, so let’s start the game.

Just when things look their worst, Dorky Geeky Nerdy is here to give you some trivia. This week, for episode 283 of the show, I have Schitt’s Creek trivia.

If you'd like to help support DGN, become a Patron at Patreon.com/dorkygeekynerdy.

It’s time to head off into the beyond and dance among the stars. How well do you know your Science Fiction novels?

Even if you don’t do well, you’ll have a bunch of books to update your To-Read pile.

More...

It’s time to head into the wild west for some trivia. This week, our TV show of choice is a western. So, put your hat on, saddle up the ponies and let’s dive into Deadwood.

Looking for some movie fun? Check out the Movie Friends Podcast.

Back in March, the show broke a big milestone. 300,000 downloads. I want to thank you all for sticking with me for all this time. Your support has meant the world to me. Thank you. 

Thirty episodes! And it’s way past time we hit Star Trek again. This time, it’s the series that brought the franchise back to TV. Plus, with the new Picard series coming soon, it’s good to catch up with the Captain, Riker, Data, and all the rest.

Thanks for sticking with us for thirty episodes!

Grab that super-sugary cereal and let’s watch some cartoons. This week, we’re featuring 1970s Cartoon Trivia. You know ’em, you love ’em.

The 1970s represents the end of an era, of sorts. In the 1980s, cartoons would be forever changed as they became 30-minute long toy commercials. But hey, let’s enjoy this one, brief, shining moment before we dive into those, shall we?

As always, it’s three rounds of ten questions each. Each round (The Dorky, Geeky, and Nerdy rounds, respectively) is harder than the one before it. You’ve got 5 seconds to come up with an answer. Simple and yet challenging. Think of us as your private Pub Trivia Night.

Don't stare into the abyss, my friends! This week, we've got 30 questions about HP Lovecraft Trivia. We're covering his life and works. That's right, this week Dorky Geeky Nerdy is taking on Cthulhu and the eldritch horrors!

Three rounds of ten questions each. The Dorky round is full of easy questions, the Geeky round has intermediate questions, and the Nerdy round has the hardest questions. But you've got this!

When you're done with HP Lovecraft trivia, leave us a review on Podchaser and iTunes.

There will be carnage! But, hopefully not during trivia. Let's dive into some Venom Trivia to celebrate the new movie, Venom: Let There Be Carnage.

As always, it's three rounds of ten questions each. Try your best and if you don't know the answer, at least you learned something about the Lethal Protector.

When you're done with Venom Trivia, we could use your rating on iTunes and Podchaser. These are two ways to help promote the show and it costs you nothing (except a little time). Heck, while you're there, review all the shows you listen to.

Is there anyone in there with you? Maybe splash a little holy water around just to be sure because this week, for episode 246 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Podcast, we’ve got Demon Movie Trivia. 

Even more so than Slasher Movie Trivia last week, the edges for this subgenre are a bit fuzzy. I’m including movies with demons, demonic possessions and even the Devil himself. 

If you want to send me feedback on this one, especially if you have strong opinions on something I included or excluded, let me know on social media or on Spotify. Every week I have a Q&A section and a poll, so let your voice be heard. 

For anything else, visit DorkyGeekyNerdy.com. 

Let me make sure I’ve got the Latin pronunciations correct and let’s get started. 

On what would be his 70th birthday, we've got an entire episode dedicated to Robin Williams Trivia.

That's right, thirty fun questions about the life and works of the actor and comedian. We've all got a favorite role of his, hopefully we covered yours today. We're talking all about his movies, TV roles, stand-up, and his life. If you don't know the answer, at least you'll have learned something!

When you're done with Robin Williams Trivia, please take a second to review us on iTunes, Podchaser, or wherever you can! This is a HUGE help in getting more ears pointed in our direction. Thanks!

Has it been another year? Holy cow. Well, here we go.

Hey gang, this is your host Brian Rollins and it’s episode 213 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. More importantly, it’s the season four finale! It’s time to wrap our questions all about the US states.

As it’s our season finale, I’ve got a fourth round, the Freak Round, for this episode. And I’m going even bigger, the Freaky Round has 20 questions in it, meaning there are a total of 50 questions this episode. That means, every state will be covered. So, as we get further on, you can start doing a process of elimination to figure out the answer.

Got it? Like I said, it’s a big long episode so make sure you’ve got your coffee before diving in. Maybe do some stretches. OK? Let’s get started.

More mini trivia for the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. And it’s another crossword clues episode. We’re now up to the Letter F. I give you the number of letters, you just tell me the word that starts with the letter F.  We've done this type of episode five other times, so you should know the drill.

Grab your Speedos, don your swim caps, get on the blocks because it’s time for Swimming Trivia. For our second bonus episode of Olympics Trivia, I have swimming trivia.

The holidays are coming up, so maybe look at getting a t-shirt for your trivia-loving friends and family members.

Get your dice ready and character sheet prepped because it’s game time.

Greeting adventures, I’m your host Brian Rollins and this is episode 222 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. For this week’s topic, we’ve got Dungeons and Dragons Trivia. That’s right, that classic roleplaying game from the 1970s that is still a big hit to this day. And, with the new movie in theaters, what better time to tackle the subject?

If you’re a new listener, welcome to the party. Every week, DGN has a new topic and thirty trivia questions. I ask and you answer. It’s like your own private Jeopardy game without that contestant interview in the middle.

Yabba-dabba-doo! It's time for some Hanna-Barbera Trivia. A staple of animation from the 50s through today, HB created a slew of characters that we all know and love.

So, how well do you know the history of the studio and their many creations?

More Star Trek trivia? Of course! This time, we visit the Star Trek series that ended in 2023, Star Trek: Picard. It got a mixed response in the beginning, but most everyone loved the final season.

What did you think? Let me know in the comments or on social media.

It’s time to go back in time to visit the Final Frontier. This week, we're covering Star Trek Prequel Trivia. Specifically, the three films that have come out since 2009. The films were divisive, to say the least, but they did gross a lot of money and renewed interest in the franchise after it went dormant in 2005 with the end of Star Trek: Enterprise.

So, this week, we're celebrating Star Trek's 55th birthday with thirty trivia questions. Good luck and Live Long & Prosper.

We're back with our second Name the Author episode. This time, we're hitting up Science Fiction. Quick and simple. We give you the title, you give us the author. It's a mix of both old and new Sci-Fi, so make sure your brain is nice and limber.

When you're done, take a listen to the Name the Fantasy Author episode for more literary trivia fun.

It’s the 250th episode of Dorky Geeky Nerdy! We also broke 250,000 downloads in October, so it’s milestones all around. Thank you all so much for your support. For our second November episode, we’re continuing our wars of the 20th century theme with Vietnam War Trivia. 

As a Gen-Xer, I grew up with adults that fought in this war and heard so many first-hand tales of what it was like. If you served, thank you for your service. I know it was brutal. 

With that said, let’s get this show started. 

Who remembers 1990’s cartoons? Well, we do and they were glorious. Join us as we slide back in time to the final decade of the 20th Century for some rowdy, rambunctious fun with the cartoons of the 1990’s. So, settle in for thirty questions of 1990s cartoon trivia.

Specifically, we’re looking at shows that started in the 90’s. They may (or may not) have finished outside the decade. So, good luck!

Follow the show on Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit to stay in touch with me, the crew, and all sorts of trivia goodness.

Hey there. I’m Brian Rollins, creator and host of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. Every week, the show offers up thirty trivia questions on a different topic. Every episode of DGN is broken up into three rounds of increasing difficulty. There’s a Dorky Round, a Geeky Round, and a Nerdy Round. I ask the questions, start a timer, and then you get the answers.

It’s a simple setup with a wide variety of topics. We’ve had Star Trek, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Comic Books, Horror Movies, History, Geography and so much more.

You can listen to the show in order or just pick and choose whatever interests you.

Subscribe now and get a new episode every Wednesday. If you’d like to learn more about the show, visit DorkyGeekyNerdy.com.

I look forward to hearing from you and having you join me on this trivia adventure. 

It’s time to get epic. This week, for the 253 iteration of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast, it’s Greek Mythology Trivia. 

To say this has been requested a lot would be an understatement. It’s hands down the most requested topic. So, why have I avoided it? Well…it’s mythology, so finding a “right answer” can be tricky. So, these are going to be what’s commonly accepted as the answers based on Bullfinch’s Mythology and Wikipedia. 

That’s the caveat. If you disagree with me, please feel free to let me know. If this works, expect more mythologies in future episodes. 

Anyone else need a vacation from 2021, already? Me too.

This week, we're going someplace beautiful, warm, and (effectively) Covid-free. We're heading to New Zealand for some trivia this week. It's been on my travel list for a long time and so I wanted to pay them a visit (virtually).

Stay tuned for other vacation destination places later on this year so we can travel in our minds and just enjoy ourselves.

And another season passes us by. It’s been a long three years. But I don’t have to tell any of you that. A lot has changed since I rolled this show out in February 2019. Some for the good. Some for the not-so-good. But we’re here and we’re still asking (and answering) trivia questions. I hope you enjoy the Season Three Finale.

Thanks for sticking with me for this long. I promise to keep plugging away with new episodes into Season Four (and beyond). As with our past Season Finales, we’ve comprised the Season Three Finale of questions from the past 51 episodes. And the fourth round, aka The Freaky Round? That’s back! So you’ve got 40 questions to deal with this week.

Good luck!

Share your score on Twitter, when you’ve finished this episode. A few folks have started it as a way to brag (or own their screw-ups). Either way, I’d love to hear how you did this week. Just tag us and tag #DorkyGeekyNerdy in your tweet.

This is episode 236 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. This week, we have Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker trivia. It’s our ninth Star Wars episode and the last of the sequel trilogy.

If you’re looking for more Star Wars Trivia, visit DorkyGeekyNerdy.com and just search “Star Wars”. Or search for anything else that strikes your fancy. 

As always, this episode featured three rounds of ten questions each.  

Simple and straightforward. So…let’s get going.

OK, gang, we’ve got a slightly tougher minisode today. This time, I’m going to give you some math problems. You’ve got to puzzle it out using the numbers in movie titles. I’ll give you a seasonal example: The number of crazy nights in an Adam Sandler movie plus the number of Christmases in a Reese Witherspoon/Vince Vaughn comedy. It’s twelve. Eight Crazy Nights plus Four Christmases. Got it? Good luck and happy holidays!

Time to relax and grab a drink for Alcohol Trivia on this week’s episode of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. We are going to, responsibly, consume thirty questions about alcohol and its representation in pop culture (including some Sci-Fi drinks and Fantasy brews).

Unlike the actual stuff, there is no age limit for these questions. If this subject is too triggering for you, skip it and come back next week. We’ve got comic book trivia then.

OK? Good. Then let’s dive in.

You all ready for the big one? Hey gang, this is episode 266 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. It’s the end of February and that means this season of the show is done.  

Five years I’ve been at this and you all keep listening. A big thank you to everyone who’s been along for that long and a big thank you to the folks that have joined this season. 

A special shout-out to the folks that have become patrons. I am planning more bonus goodies for those that have subscribed on Patreon, so if you haven’t joined yet, now’s a good time. 

Now, about this episode. If you don’t remember or if it’s your first finale, I’ll give you the rundown. This episode contains questions from topics we’ve covered over the last 51 weeks. Think of it as a final exam without the fear of flunking your class. 

Oh, and one more thing. This episode has a bonus round. The Freaky Round. So, there are forty questions this time. Get comfortable, grab your coffee, and let’s do this. 

Snuggle up with someone because it's about to get a little scary. This week, we're heading back in time with some 1980s Horror Movie Trivia. Some were good, some were bad, and some were weird. Like really weird.

As always, it's three rounds of ten questions each. Good luck! Also, this is our last regular episode before the Season Three finale. If you're looking to study for the final exam, now is the time to start!

Time to head on down to the river to play some trivia. Mississippi Trivia, to be exact. Thirty questions about the state's history, geography, and more. Three rounds of ten questions each all about another state for this season.

If you're liking the show, please share us with your friends and family. Also, we'd love to hear from you. Drop us a note at DorkyGeekyNerdy.com.

Hint for next week's show: What state has no official nickname, but sometimes goes by The Lead State, The Bullion State, and The Mother of the West?

Thirty questions, as always, in three distinct rounds (Dorky, Geeky, and Nerdy). Each round gets harder than the last. You’ll have five seconds after I read the question to answer. If you need scoring rules or a score sheet, you can find those on our Rules page.
