The Geek Bracket is a five-round podcast where three players compete to earn the most points and be the winner of that week’s Geek Bracket. Players choose from categories on the following topics as well as a monthly rotating category created by a special guest expert for that month’s brackets.
Television – Anything occurring on Television
Theatre – Includes Movies, Plays, and Musicals
Literature – Including Novels through the present day
Popular Literature – Including Anime, Comics, and other popular or serial fictions
Gaming – Includes Video, Tabletop, and VR
Music – Includes Popular, Instrumental, and Classical
Innovations – In Technology, Business, and Architecture
Sports – Any League, Discipline, or Genre
Players play a Lightning Round of general knowledge questions in the above categories as well as six of the nine categories for that week. Players can also bet points they’ve earned on a Double-Up list (placing a list of five things in order) and a hyper-challenging two-part Final Bet to outsmart their opponents and be named that week’s winner!
Guests on the show are competing in a year-long tournament where the top competitors walk away with over $500 in prizes. Tune in every week to see how our contestants do on The Geek Bracket!

Today's Press Your Luck Round, in the Category of Music: Sergei Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf is a children-targetted piece that anthropomorphises its five animal leads as five separate orchestral instruments and has the hunters portrayed by a backing of woodwinds lead by a singular brass instrument. Peter is portrayed by the entire strings section in the piece, but name up to six of the instruments to portray the leitmotiffs of either the Songbird, the Cat, the Duck, Piotr's Grandfather, the Wolf, or the Huntsmen in this piece. -
