Episode Introduction
This is episode 100 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. I’m your host Brian Rollins and…wait a minute.
One. Hundred. Episodes.
Wow. It’s been an adventure getting here and I just wanted to thank everyone for listening. A special thanks to Blaine for helping me write episodes and a big thank you to my lovely wife for putting up with my weird hobbies. Seriously, the woman is a saint.
So, it’s episode one-hundred? Gotta do something special, right? Well, since we started this whole podcast with Star Trek, it seemed fitting to have a little more for the 100th. Specifically, we’re doing…everything. These questions can come from anywhere in the Star Trek universe. TV, Movies, and more.
Oh…and it wouldn’t be a special episode without bringing back the Freaky Round. That’s right, like our one-year anniversary special, this episode goes to 40! One extra round of even harder questions.
