  • 232: Last Week is Not History
    Jun 5 2024
    It’s the third instalment of Trivial Retreat, the game where we play the original Genus edition of Trivial Pursuit backward, where players must invent or guess the questions and categories based entirely on what’s on the back of the card. Points are awarded partly on guessing the right questions, but let’s face it, they’re really doled out by how much (or how little) players annoy the host…

    Jason Snell with Antony Johnston, David J. Loehr, Shelly Brisbin and Brian Warren.
