Episode Intro

It’s time for the Jedi…to ask trivia questions.

Hey rebels, I’m your host Brian Rollins and this is episode 226 of the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast. This week, we’ve got Episode VIII of the Skywalker Saga. Love it or hate it, we’ve got thirty questions.

As always, it’s three rounds of ten questions each. A dorky round, a geeky round, and a nerdy round. If you need rules or scorecards, visit DorkyGeekyNerdy.com.
