The Catered Quiz

Whether you’ve never heard The Catered Quiz or you’ve listened to all 21 hours and 41 minutes of this season or you’re somewhere in-between those extremes, I hope that this episode introduces you to or reminds you of the fun that was had this year on the show. If you watch Survivor, remember when they used to do a big two-hour recap episode right before Thanksgiving? This is The Catered Quiz equivalent of that. In fact, I even added another twenty minutes to that two-hour runtime.

And since it is Thanksgiving, I also share what I’m thankful for about each guest this year. And who were those guests?
