02/03/2026 Duration: 01h54minThis week Jonathan teams up with Sean Huang against the dastardly trio of Erin, Clint Givens, and Shara Hinkel with Zahkia in the host's chair. Enjoy! --- Hello All! Sorry for the confusion. This episode was originally released incorrectly as episode 573 on the Patreon Exclusives feed. I'm republishing it as episode 572 on the main feed and changing the show number on the patron feed. I won't be removing it from the patreon feed because I don't want to disrupt any patrons who have already started listening. As a result, 572 will live in both feeds. Thanks! --- If you want access to our every other week patron only episodes please head over to www.trivialwarfarearmy.com and sign up today!

TW570 - I Thought Mel Gibson was Black
16/02/2026 Duration: 01h37minWell, we've finally done it. We've reached the mountaintop and stood upon it. We've reached peak Trivial Warfare. I didn't even know we were looking for it but we're here now and there's no turning back. I can't be sure that this is THE BEST EPISODE OF TRIVIAL WARFARE EVER. But I also can't be sure that it's NOT the best episode of Trivial Warfare ever. I can't believe we're releasing an episode this good for free. I've gotta go back to business school or something. This week is our World Famous Black History Month Episode! Dean Bratton teams up with Rob Everett against the paring of Sekou Benson and Zahkia Mendoza with Ben in the host's chair, and the result if pure magic. Hold onto your butts, this is a fun ride!

TW562 - Anorexia Chlamydia Slater
22/12/2025 Duration: 01h42minOne of the ways to tell a recording is going to be a great episode is how many different phrases are in the competition for show title. We had an internal vote and this week Anorexia Chlamydia Slater and The Meat Cookie were a legitimate tie, so I went with the one that made Ben laugh the hardest. This week's game is Jonathan and Zahkia vs Nick and Alan Kreisel with Ben in the host's chair. Enjoy!

TW560 - Will, Write Me a Will
08/12/2025 Duration: 01h43minBefore I announce the matchup I'd like to explain today's show title and hopefully boost the signal a little bit. When you get to the end of the game and we're giving people the chance to do shoutouts we got a very poignant shoutout from Jane who had very recently lost a friend to cancer and suggested donations to various charities that her friend had held dear. Will was the next guess to do his shout outs and Will made a meaningful decision. He announced that he will make a $500 donation from the cost of his services to the charities of Jane's choosing for anyone (up to 5 people) who hire him to write a will after hearing this episode. It is a beautiful sentiment and I'd like to see people take advantage of this offer. Will is in the Chicagoland area and we'll clarify on the Trivial Warfare Army Facebook group if he can only do this work in Illinois or if it is open to others. If you are in a position to benefit from this service I hope you will take him up on it. Ok, with that being said, today's game is Jo
