Adam_Murdough · December 2013

Because YOU demanded it! A packed studio of Geeks, plus some special guests, sit down to play a few rounds of no-holds-barred, no-quarter-given comics trivia! It's our last episode of the year, and we're closing out 2013 in style! (2:25:35)

Listen here.

Impending Dr. Who talk interrupted by live dunk Cap is the gift that keeps on giving

Has CGS died and come back? This is a true return to 2005 form. Long episodes and trivia. Jamie D I've not said it in a long time: I love ya big guy.

i_am_scifi · December 2013

This was a delicious treat, gentlemen (and lady, even if Dani was mostly silent). Loved every minute of it. Especially Pants and his inability to sit in the right seat when choosing teams. :D

Keep it coming, Jeremy!

This episode just overjoyed me. I love cgs in all it's iterations but Bryan and Peter and trivia!? Thanks for the Christmas present.

fredzilla · January 2014

I don't want to tell you guys how to run your podcast, but I think this should be a CGS tradition. Get all the Geeks you can into the room and play trivia at the end of every year. It will probably be one of the biggest downloads all year.

electric_mayhem · January 2014

great ep. Loved it!

Greg · January 2014

Good episode, glad I saved it for work today.

David_D · January 2014

Great episode, guys. And hopefully the start of an annual tradition!

rebis · January 2014

NICE episode. Not only do we get a geek reunion, but a visit from Drunk Cap, too.

When the robot herald question was asked, I immediatly thought of this guy,

I didn't know that Galactus had a previous robot herald. Thanks.

jaydee74 · January 2014

This......was just awesome.

Peter · January 2014

Rebis - I have yet to read the Galactus Trilogy from FF 48-50 (sacrilege) so I'm not sure the Punisher robot was called a "herald" or not (the scanned panels I found online didn't use the term "herald"). More of a watchdog for Galactus' ship I think - especially considering Silver Surfer was the "herald" at that point.

Glad listeners enjoyed the romp. I wanted to do a trivia night with the guys over the holidays "off mic", so when Jamie put out the call for a big recording topic, a trivia episode felt like an ideal ep to suggest. Plus it was a hoot to measure up Chris and Jimmy and see where their trivia knowledge steers. Good to know for any future eps.

And throwing stuff at Pants is always worth the trip. ;)

jaydee74 · January 2014

Absolutely a great episode. Loved it.

mwhitt80 · January 2014

Peter - how much time do you spend adding new questions? do you cycle out older (Blade 2) questions?

Or as I like to call them 'absurdly obsure questions no one knows.'

Peter · January 2014

I spent a few days prepping for this ep. I created the game in 1999 and updated for years until I got about 3600 questions - all hand written. Yikes! And then either before or during the earliest years of CGS I started an updated version which I had printed, throwing away some of the hand written ones that I duplicated. Combined, those cards probably account for over 4000 questions. I think during Episode 300 we had trivia matchups at Golden Eagle.

For this ep, I went through all the cards and picked out the best ones - the most broad in terms of trivia - and created a spread sheet so I could finesse the questions. I then added in a bunch of new ones specific to the other hosts, as well as updated questions such as the Blackest Night stuff. In terms of content, I think the original set of questions stopped at around 2003-05. So that's ten years of comics I could add in. Expansion pack! lol.

mwhitt80 · January 2014

You did a good job Peter. I've enjoyed all the iterations of CGS trivia so far, and it sounds like it's time to give it the 10th anniversary update. I think you could get another 1.5k questions easy.

JamieD · January 2014

So happy to see that everyone enjoyed it

John_Steed · January 2014

I got 1 (ONE!) answer right..... :(|)

still enjoyed it though :D

John_Steed · January 2014

and thx @Peter for providing those questions. It was great to hear you on CGS radio.

Elsiebub · January 2014

One of the best CGS episodes ever, and that's really saying something.

Great job all around to everyone!

thebradpinder · January 2014

Love hearing the trivia, and loved hearing from Cap. god I was laughing out loud at his antics.

bralinator · January 2014

Great job everyone! Excellent game @Peter

@JamieD, kudos. Please consider keeping this type of episode in the rotation annually or even more frequently (semi-annually)

LibraryBoy · January 2014

This was a lot of fun, guys. Thanks for letting us join in on the party in some way. :-bd
