Description

In this Ep of 21 Questions by Trivia Tribe we discuss a shared Best Actress Oscar, the real name of a popular musical instrument and there’s even an algebra question -but it’s easy, we promise! Not many people know this but as Charles Dickens was writing Oliver Twist he would pause every now and then to take in an episode of this podcast. One time he heard a question about the baseball team the Dodgers (Which baseball team will, decades from now, move from Brooklyn to LA?) and thought to himself ‘What an artful question!’. Immediately he knew he had to rename one of his main characters who up until then was called ‘Dave the naughty man who steals things but somehow always seems to get away with it’.  A light went on in his mind and a famous literary character was born. You’re welcome Charlie! 21 Questions is hosted by comedian and trivia host Mike van Acker. It’s a short, sharp trivia podcast where Mike gives you the answer to each question before he asks the next one so there’s no need for paper, pens, teams or an emergency airbag.    New episodes every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

21 Questions (Ep 63) Of COURSE Percussionists Are Real Musicians!

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! 21 Questions is hosted by comedian and trivia host Mike van Acker. It’s a short, sharp trivia podcast where Mike gives you the answer to each question before he asks the next one so there’s no need for paper, pens, teams or an autographed photo of Anson Williams.     New episodes every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

21 Questions (Ep 62) The School Teacher Who Hated The Kids

In this Ep of 21 Questions by Trivia Tribe Mike will ask you about the American President who was invited to join the marines – he was in his 70s at the time! We’ll talk about a famous actor who’s inability to win an Oscar makes him a world record holder, and there’s even a Simpsons question as well – but it’s quite easy, we promise! Not many people know this but in 1879 when Aussie bushranger Ned Kelly was writing his famous Jerilderie Letter he mentioned this podcast! It’s a very long letter but on page 54 (of 56! Really-google it!) Ned wrote: “And whilst I realise my days on this Earth may be numbered, my existence now and yesterday and all the days before has been made all the sweeter for the dulcet tones of Mike van Acker and his 21 Questions podcast…’. So that’s nice. 21 Questions is hosted by comedian and trivia host Mike van Acker.

21 Questions (Ep 61) Fatal Attraction? OMW!

In this Ep of 21 Questions by Trivia Tribe Mike asks about a type of belt – but not the type you’re thinking about. There’s also a question about Buckingham Palace,  a tourist landmark in America and a fried fast food that they named a TV show after. Crazy times!   Not many people know this but on June 12, 1987 when U.S. President Ronald Reagan said "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" he was actually talking about a paywall that the Russians had put on this podcast so its citizens couldn’t listen in and learn about the rest of the world. Gorby completely misunderstood and tore down the Berlin Wall instead - and we’re very glad he did! Freedom for all oppressed peoples we say!   21 Questions is hosted by comedian and trivia host Mike van Acker.

21 Questions (Ep 60) The Private Life of Mickey and Minnie Mouse

In this Ep of 21 Questions by Trivia Tribe Mike will quiz you on a breed of dog named after a country,  a country named after a compass point, and how many points certain balls score in snooker. We think you’ll find this ep quite amusing. Maybe even more than ‘quite’! but we don't want to over-promise anything... Not many people know this but back when Carly Simon was writing You’re So Vain she originally had a reference to this podcast in the lyrics. It went ‘You’re so Vain, you probably think you’d get a perfect score on 21 Questions’ but we said ‘No’ when her publishers asked us for permission to mention us, and we only did that because we didn’t want to get caught up in a Kanye/Taylor type feud… 21 Questions is hosted by comedian and trivia host Mike van Acker. It’s a short, sharp trivia podcast where Mike gives you the answer to each question before he asks the next one so there’s no need for paper, pens, teams or a Siamese cat.       New episodes every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

21 Questions (Ep 59) What’s Your Karaoke Song? The Listeners Have Spoken!

In this Ep of 21 Questions by Trivia Tribe Mike asks about a song by Elvis, A movie that starred Tom Hanks, and there’s a maths question but it’s not too hard we don’t think! Not many people know this but back in 1813 when Lawson Blaxland and Wentworth were crossing the Blue Mountains in New South Wales they very nearly turned back because they couldn’t get a mobile signal and thus couldn’t listen to this podcast  - the network coverage was very patchy in the early 1800s. We’re so glad they persevered - Australia as a nation is so much better for their efforts! Thanks fellas! 21 Questions is hosted by comedian and trivia host Mike van Acker.
