Tangents: A Trivia Workshop Podcast

Trivia Workshop

Tangents is a unique quiz podcast that lets the players control the game by selecting the subjects from a list of “tangents” related to each question. The game keeps going until you miss three questions, so the goal is to build the highest score you can and get on top of the leaderboard. The trivia is based on the difficulty level of an average pub quiz, so it should be accessible for a wide audience. We cover a wide range of subjects like movies, TV, music, sports, specific pop culture themes, and academic subjects.
