Q is for Quizzical: Inside A Q Word Podcast

If you’ve ever wondered how many trivia answers you can dream up that start with the same single letter, this week’s episode of Trivia With Budds puts that question to the test. One of my newest episodes is entirely dedicated to Q Words — every single answer, no exceptions, starts with the letter Q.

Don’t worry about missing the trivia live — the first question doesn’t kick off until 1:47, so there’s time to settle in first.

The Full Q Words Round

Think you can beat the pod? Here’s the complete set — try answering before you scroll to the bottom of each one.

1. Along with the standard chocolate, it also came in banana and mango flavors, Nestle ______.

Fact of the Day

Every episode opens with a random nugget of knowledge, and this one’s a good one: your brain generates enough electricity to power a small LED bulb. A nice reminder that the organ you’re using to answer these Q-word questions is quite literally powering itself while it works.

Triple Connections

Also in the mix this episode is a round of Triple Connections, where three clues share a hidden link. This time around, the words on the table are Caddy, Love, Shake — see if you can work out what ties them together before the reveals.
