We're a little late for Valentine's Day.  Sorry to our Brain Ladlers out there.  You are still our valentines, and so instead of getting you a cheap teddy bear and those chalky candy hearts with the words on them we got at the local gas station, we are bringing this love themed quiz from Ross and Ashley.  Twy is out, but Arthur is ready to step in and bring the love.

This time, it's personal. Though, the other times have been personal as well.  Either way, let's celebrate our 400th episode with a little sweep the leg.  Who will reign supreme and who's going down?  You got a problem with that?

The second week of 2026 brings us an episode that was left in the vault.  It's a mystery theme featuring good ol' Producer Arthur as a contestant.  Does he have what it takes to solve Elizabeth's tricky mystery quiz?

Welcome to 2026! And there's no better way to celebrate a new year than by asking trivia questions about the old one.  The Brain Ladle Brain Trust has curated a quiz that will give you fond memories of the year that was.

This is another fun quiz from Ross and Ashley.  If you don't know what a portmanteau is, well, your favorite podcast will help you figure it out.  Whether you are enjoying brunch across from your motel or having a staycation while the smog rolls in, this episode will work wonders for you when you're feeling hangry for some edutainment.

Grab a lobster and your favorite Stephen King novel because Cindy has given us a quiz honoring the best single syllable state in the Union, Maine!  The gang will try to put on their thinking caps to answer these questions that are as rocky as the famous Maine coastline.

Leigh, famous for her history quizzes, brings a new one for the gang all about the Middle Ages.  Since this is what Davo got his degree in, will he rise to the top or will poor Leigh be assaulted with a barrage of angry babies?

On this episode, one of our favorite quiz writers, Ross and Ashley, bring us a delectable trivia treat of mushrooms.  Join our "fun guys" as they try to cypher their way through this shiitake.  This episode also features the latest in AI Podcast Producing technology as Brain Ladle gets more state of the art than ever before.

This one is for all our grammar fans out there as listener Cindy gives us a quiz inspired by parts of speech.  From verbs to prepositions, we've got it covered.  We'll even throw in a couple of pronouns at no cost.

One of our favorite non-Brain Ladle trivia hosts, Carmela Smith (Four Play, Trivia Warfare), joins the gang with a quiz curated by the Sensei (featuring questions by Leigh, Ian, and Nabs) in honor of our guest.  In this episode, we're talking about the number four and we're ready to play.
