  TW600 - Gandalf the Black 14.09.2026 2h 25min

  I can't believe we're at 600 episodes. We've been doing this for 600 weeks. That's 11.5 years of Trivial Warfare. I want to say a couple of thank you's.  First, I want to thank you, our audience. The only reason that TW exists in the form that it exists now is because of your amazing support and love. In return we feel honored to get to know you, to grow with you, and share that love back with you. I hope you understand how much you are loved and appreciated. Along with that, I want to say thank you to all of our hosts and others who have made huge contributions along the way. Chris, Carmela, Ben, Nick, Erin, Zahkia, Nikki, and Robear all get their flowers at the end of this episode and they are SO well deserved. What an amazing team! I want to go deeper though and express my gratitude to Kit for everything she does. I want to thank Joel Sharpton who was our primary editor for many years and is a wonderful friend. I want to say thank you to Marc Demeter, one of our first hosts and great contributor in our first couple of years. I want to say thank you to Scott Barber for being himself, we need more people in the world like Scott. And I want to thank Russ Friedewald who was our first webmaster and an absolute class act. It's always dangerous to thank people because it's easy to accidentally leave people out. If I have failed to mention someone I should have please know that it was not out of malice and is not intentional. We have had help from so many people over the years and want everyone to know that they are appreciated. This weeks episode is the conclusion of our host tournament. It's Carmela and Ben vs. Erin and Nick, Scott Barber is hosting. And It's time to play the game!

  TW576 - Sugar Pie, Honey Crunch 30.03.2026 1h 51min

  Happy Women's History Month! I'm excited to share our WHM episode this year featuring Nikki Bates and Zahkia Mendoza! Also, I need to say a special thank you this week to Kenya Zarns. Our listeners will no doubt notice that Kenya appeared in two shows in a row. That is because we had someone who was sick and had to drop out of this episode. We found out without much time to spare and we needed an immediate fill in who could perform at a very high level. We asked Kenya since she was on with us and we knew she was great and she said yes so yep, she's in 2 episodes in a row, being amazing as always! This week it's Kenya and Melody Courtney versus Zahkia and Tamara Fleishman with Nikki in the host's chair.

  TW572 - Shout Out to Cake! 02.03.2026 1h 54min

  This week Jonathan teams up with Sean Huang against the dastardly trio of Erin, Clint Givens, and Shara Hinkel with Zahkia in the host's chair. Enjoy! --- Hello All! Sorry for the confusion. This episode was originally released incorrectly as episode 573 on the Patreon Exclusives feed. I'm republishing it as episode 572 on the main feed and changing the show number on the patron feed. I won't be removing it from the patreon feed because I don't want to disrupt any patrons who have already started listening. As a result, 572 will live in both feeds.

  TW570 - I Thought Mel Gibson was Black 16.02.2026 1h 37min

  Well, we've finally done it. We've reached the mountaintop and stood upon it. We've reached peak Trivial Warfare. I didn't even know we were looking for it but we're here now and there's no turning back. I can't be sure that this is THE BEST EPISODE OF TRIVIAL WARFARE EVER. But I also can't be sure that it's NOT the best episode of Trivial Warfare ever.  I can't believe we're releasing an episode this good for free. I've gotta go back to business school or something. This week is our World Famous Black History Month Episode! Dean Bratton teams up with Rob Everett against the paring of Sekou Benson and Zahkia Mendoza with Ben in the host's chair, and the result if pure magic. Hold onto your butts, this is a fun ride!   If you enjoy Trivial Warfare and think you'd enjoy meeting or getting to know the people you hear on the show you should join us in our Facebook Group.  Click this Link and request to join!
