Trivia is the sweetest thing on a brand new episode of Go Fact Yourself!
In this episode…
Guests:
Sherry Cola has appeared in shows like “Good Trouble” on Netflix and films like Joy Ride. But she actually got her start on the radio, thanks to Carson Daly. She’ll tell us why it was a bit of a humbling, but important, experience and explain why she’s not a competitive person.
Greg Proops is an actor and comedian, perhaps best known for his years on “Whose Line is it Anyway?” His new comedy album, Purple Shasta Raccoon, is available now. He’ll also tell us how he came up with the title for his last comedy album, French Drug Deal, and why he decided to improvise his entire set. You can hear Greg on his podcast “The Smartest Man in the World.”
Areas of Expertise
Sherry: The film A Walk to Remember, the film The Sweetest Thing, and the San Gabriel Valley.
Greg: The San Francisco Giants of the 1980s, Keanu Reeves in the movie Point Break, and Alexander the Great as a tween.
What’s the difference: Speak Freely
What’s the difference between to speak and to talk?
What’s the difference between something free and something on the house?
With guest experts:
Chili Davis: Three-time World Series Champion and member of the San Francisco Giants Wall of Fame.
Roger Kumble: Screenwriter, playwright, and director of The Sweetest Thing
Thomas Jane: Actor, known for films like Boogie Nights, The Punisher and The Sweetest Thing.
