Skeleton Recap for Thursday, 2026-08-13
If there’s one thing the world needs more of, it’s podcast recommendations
Hiya Skeleton Crew,
Sorry for the li’l delay on this Season 31 recap email. While ya cast yer memories back to the questions from last week, here’s the leaderboard for ya to peruse.
Answers to Last Time
- In 1961, 1 in 50 girls born in the U. S. of A. were named Mary. In 2025, it was closer to 1 in 800!
- Bianca Montgomery’s the daughter of Erica Kane on All My Children. Even if ya don’t watch daytime teevee, it’s prob’ly good to know that Erica Kane = All My Children, for trivia purposes.

Season 32
It’s time for a back-to-school break here at the ol’ Trivia Zone. I’m plannin to be back in yer inboxes on September 28th for Season 32. In theory – provided there ain’t some kinda ancient evil that derails things – it’ll run ’til November 6.
If ya still wanna get a trivia fix, here’re two podcasts I enjoy that I’d say are worth checkin out:
- The Good Job, Brain! podcast’s lotsa fun, with plenty of back-catalog to keep ya occupied for even the longest road trip.
- Triviality’s another good podcast, again with a ginormous back-catalog to enjoy.
If ya head over to either of those, let ’em know I sent ya! Or don’t, that’s OK too, they’d probably be all “Mister who-now?” since I don’t think either of those places have ever heard of me.
OK then
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee
