150 episodes! How about that? For this special milestone, we decided to do something a little different than our usual fair; Bill put together a really fun TRIVIA episode to delight listeners and stump his contestants (Austin, Tori, and Sully). Of course this is heavily influenced by the annual trivia episodes produced by our podcasting senseis over at Anime World Order and we hope they don't mind us lovingly ripping them off. With three rounds of three categories, Bill stumps us with questions about superheroes, idols, school clubs, Letterboxd reviews, McDonalds, and much more. We hope you enjoy. And to everyone who has been listening to us since the beginning, or are just now jumping in, thanks for being here! Here's to the next 150 episodes.
