  • 21 Questions (Ep 64) That Some Would Argue Should Have Been Ep 63 But Whatever!
    Jun 22 2026

    In this Ep of 21 Questions by Trivia Tribe Mike will ask you about a city in Europe, a river in the USA and a pretty decent wall in China. Along the way Mike will say disparaging things about two female literary heroines and one former American president. It’s quite a lively episode!

    Not many people know this but Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture did not originally contain the cannon blasts for which it is now famous – but he knew it was missing something. Two days before the Overture’s first performance he was listening to this podcast and heard the question: Which homophone is both a large calibre weapon and a musical term for a round like 'Row Row Row Your Boat’? and he realised what the piece was missing! A quick trip to Guns ‘R Us and he was good to go!

    Jun 29 2026

    In this Ep of 21 Questions by Trivia Tribe Mike once again sings at you. We’ve asked him not to and we’re sorry that he just won’t listen. But, it’s only once and only one line from one song, and it’s from a famous musical. It could we worse, we guess. Otherwise, there are some really interesting questions in this ep and we think you’ll be entertained and informed, but probably not titillated.

    Not many people know this but Joan of Arc was a mad trivia fan. She was constantly upset that she was known as ‘the maid of Orleans’ - she asked people over and over to refer to her as ‘the trivia queen of Orleans, but it never caught on. Still, she never missed an ep of this podcast, and we’re grateful for her support.

    Not many people know this but in 1752 Benjamin Franklin was driving his wife crazy listening to this podcast at full volume whilst she was trying to have a nap. ‘For the love of God Benny’ she said ‘Turn that off and go outside and find something to do!’ Benjamin thought to himself ‘I’ve got that old kite in the shed – maybe Ill go fly that into the winds of the storm that’s brewing’. We’re so proud that we are an incidental footnote to that historical moment…
