Podcast Overview

Ever wonder why barber shops have that striped pole out front? What does it mean? Is it a warning? Perhaps a hypnotic device to lull you into spending too much on a haircut? We don’t know. But we will pretend to know, on ANSWER FOR IT! -- the podcast where trivia meets comedy, facts meet improv, and where fumbling the answer for laughs is both an art and a science. Featuring an all-star “who the hell is that?” cast, ANSWER FOR IT! comes from James and Elyse Willems (Funhaus), AJ LoCascio (X-Men ‘97), and Zach Anner (Speechless) -- four friends ready to tackle silly, unusual, and obscure trivia questions. Like, when in history were Kit-Kat wrappers blue? How do astronauts handle their dirty laundry? And what the heck is a ‘tattie boodie?’ Prepare to listen and leave feeling at least 12% smarter. Subscribe and listen to new episodes every Tuesday.
