71 | Mel Brooks Movie Trivia

Posted on June 3, 2020July 4, 2025 by Brian Rollins

Laugh Out Loud: Mel Brooks Movie Trivia – Podcast Episode

Get ready to laugh and think in equal measure! This week on the Dorky Geeky Nerdy Trivia Podcast, we’re celebrating the genius of comedy legend Mel Brooks. From Blazing Saddles to Young Frankenstein, Brooks’ films have delivered iconic laughs, clever satire, and unforgettable characters that continue to inspire and entertain.

Featuring 30 hilarious and brainy trivia questions across three levels—Dorky (easy), Geeky (medium), and Nerdy (hard)—this episode tests your knowledge of Mel Brooks’ movie masterpieces, his unique style of parody, and the behind-the-scenes stories that make his work timeless. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just discovering his films, this quiz is a fun, smart tribute to one of comedy’s greatest.

So dust off your cowboy hat, get ready for some witty wordplay, and join us for a trivia episode that’s sure to tickle your funny bone!

Content Note: While Mel Brooks’ movies are pretty deep into R-rated territory, this episode is perfectly safe for young ears (Though they may not get many of these correct).
