The podcast mash-ups keep coming and latest to join the portfolio is the amazing comedian, author, journalist and host of top podcast 'How To Own The Room' - Viv Groskop!

Viv looks through her rolodex of past guests to form the ultimate pub quiz team...but does Hilary Clinton make the grade, and which famous classicist is most likely to be up for a scrap in the car park afterwards? All these questions will be answered - with a fair few general knowledge ones thrown-in for good measure.... de rien.

Another week another smashing of pods and this week Lucy and Jenny are joined by most of Pappy's Flatshare Slamdown Podcast. Matt & Ben prove they could hold their own in a quiz and provide some fun facts of their own whilst they're at it, whilst Jenny reveals a rather extreme aversion to an animal usually viewed as innocuous at most.

As always there trivia has tenuous link to the guest podcast, but everyone laughs and learns along the way ... what fun!

It's another cracking pod-mash this week, as Lucy and Jenny welcome Margret Caborn-Smith and Producer Ben Walker of Do The Right Thing to the Fingers On Buzzers collective!

The gang reminisce about TV quiz gold such as 'Telly Addicts' and about another quiz -developed by Ben - which didn't quite have the same longevity, but nevertheless deserves a place in TV quiz show history.

As always, hosts and guests are tested on their general knowledge and go head to head in categories picked for their tenuous link to the visiting podcast.

The podcast mash-up series continues apace and this week Lucy and Jenny are delighted to welcome Pavo and Neil from the wonderful, WTAF is This Country Podcast!

If you've never seen the multi-BAFTA award winning 'This Country' you're in for a treat, if you have had that joy, then the guys have hundreds of episodes dedicated to that amazing show, featuring fantastic chats with all the main members of the cast. 

Sometimes however, they just allow super fans on to talk about their love of all things 'This Country', and it's in this capacity that all members of the FOB team have had the pleasure of appearing on their show and so it felt only right to invite the guys to FOB towers for some quizzing fun. 

Don't worry, you don't need to be a 'This Country' aficionado to join-in with the trivia in today's episode ...believe me, it's an education for everyone!

Who doesn't love a podcast mash-up? Maybe it's not your thing and you'd condemn them to a desert island forever if you could? Hopefully not, but if you happen to have a list of people, animals and things you'd banish tomorrow, then top, podcast 'Desert Island Dicks' would probably be a cathartic listen for you, and James and Dan from that very podcast join Lucy & Jen for this episode for some cathartic, quizzing fun. 

If you've been wanting to brush-up on your trivia on the subject of deserts, islands and dicks - then look no further than this very fun episode. 

Warning: it all gets a bit 'carry-on' towards the end, but who doesn't love a double entendre? Just be thankful the producer chickened-out of calling the episode 'Fingers On Dicks'.

In another spectacular podcast mash-up, Lucy and Jenny welcome Hannah, Catie and Taylor from hit true crime podcast, Drunk Women Solving Crime! As always the hosts go head-to-head in quizzes themed to their specialities, but how much do our hosts know about crime and are this week's guests REALLY experts on booze?

Get a pen and paper ready and play along ... but probably not on loud speaker if there's children about... although they might be interested to lean where chicken nuggets were invented, which is one of the many facts featured in this very episode .

The FOB podcast mash-ups continue a-pace and this week Jenny and Lucy are joined by Pete Donaldson and Jim Campbell from TOP football podcast, The Football Ramble! 

Although sport might not be everyone's choice in the pub quiz, we all know general knowledge knows no boundaries and there's some in-depth reminiscence about spot-based TV and radio quiz shows and Jim and Pete bring their A-game in a quizzing showdown with our hosts, but who will be victorious? Can brawn defeat brains?

You'll also find out which footballer would be best in a pub quiz team, why there's a board game all about Jason Donovan and which member of Football Ramble would win rear of the year!

It's a podcast crossover special, with the wonderful Helen Thorn and Ellie Gibson, otherwise known as 'The Scummy Mummies'.

In a lively (and slightly x-rated at times) chat about quiz, we hear just why Going For Gold saved Ellie through the 1980s and some lovely stories of quiz TV from Helen's native Australia. Then it all gets competitive when our guests go head-to-head with Lucy and Jenny and we find out, which podcast is the best! Although, no one was keeping score really, so we'll probably just call it a draw.

After the nation was gripped by ITV's new Quiz 'Beat The Chaser', the Fingers On Buzzers team decided it was high-time that Jenny went head-to-head with one of her fellow Chasers on the show; and so the imposing figure of 'The Beast' agreed to drop-in for a chat with 'The Vixen'.

We hear from Mark Labbett about the importance of personality in TV quizzing, the lack of female representation and which of his TV colleagues he would (and wouldn't) want on his quiz team. 

Plus, Lucy and Jenny give some invaluable insights into making quizzing fun for ALL the family ... which is no mean feat, as we are all discovering. 

And a BIG thank you to Hassan Aslam for supplying this week's listener quiz, which was initially used to raise money for Age UK, Ealing ageuk.org.uk/ealing/

Don't forget to check-out the team's social media for details on their retro quizzing watch-alongs - the next one is on Sunday 10th May 2020.
