Episode Intro

Make sure your Walkman has fresh Double-A batteries because it’s time to save the Galaxy.

Hey gang, I’m your host Brian Rollins and this is episode 223 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast cast. Can you believe it’s May already? And with May, we get Summer Movies. One of the first of the season is Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol 3. So, it’s time to do an entire episode on those space scoundrels.

A quick bit of clarification. There are two teams that have used the name. The first from the 1960s and the newer one from 2008. Unless otherwise stated, assume I’m asking about the newer team. Got it?

As always, it’s three rounds of ten questions each. If you need rules or scorecards, visit DorkyGeekyNerdy.com. I’m still playing around with the store. If there’s a particular piece of merchandise you’re looking for, let me know. I’ll see what I can do.

That’s enough business, let’s get on with the show.
