·21 min·2 clips

Host Brian Rollins announces a 40-question season finale and hints at major format changes for Season 8.

The episode opens with host Brian Rollins announcing this as the Season 7 finale, containing 40 questions instead of the standard 30. He explains the questions are drawn from various topics covered throughout the past 51 weeks, including history, comic books, geography, and movies. The trivia is divided into four rounds: Dorky, Geeky, Nerdy, and Freaky. The Dorky Round includes questions about European colonial powers, werewolf vulnerabilities, and corporate headquarters locations. The Geeky Round features music trivia about The Beatles, Elton John, and Queen, plus Marvel Cinematic Universe details. The Nerdy Round covers musical theater, phobias, and U.S. state facts. The Freaky Round presents unusual historical facts, Paralympic achievements, and mythological references. Throughout the episode, Rollins provides answers with occasional contextual explanations, such as Jackie Robinson's role in ending MLB segregation. After the trivia concludes, Rollins thanks patrons and t-shirt buyers for supporting the show. He announces significant format changes for Season 8: each episode will feature three topics instead of one, similar to how Jeopardy bundles categories. He explains this change addresses listener feedback about the Nerdy Round's difficulty and his own challenges in preparing 30 questions on single topics. Mini-episodes will continue occasionally. Rollins hints at the first Season 8 episode's theme involving shows like The Prisoner and Clerks. The episode closes with promotional content for Rollins' audiobook narration services and a preview of the audiobook 'The Awakening of David Rose.'
