  • 21 Questions (Ep 51) Check Out My Chorizo!
    2026/05/22

    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’. 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.

    2026/05/20

    This is Ep 50 of 21 Questions by Trivia Tribe and to celebrate, every question asked was sent in by a listener.

    Not many people know this but in 1996 when Greg Norman famously blew a huge lead to lose the Masters it was because his phone went flat on his way to the course that day and thus he couldn’t listen to this podcast as part of his warm up.

    Not many people know this but when Neil Diamond was about to go onstage to record Hot August Night in 1972 he kept the crowd waiting for 14 minutes because he was listening to this podcast with his band. He was planning on calling his live album Neil Diamond Sings A Few Songs but one of the questions in the pod he listened to was ‘After whom is the month of August named?’ and when he immediately yelled ‘Julius Caesar’ his drummer Dave said ‘Neil, baby - you’re so hot tonight!’ Neil said 'Holy crap Dave!
