Happy Thursday! In a world where trivia leagues are everywhere now, I did want to put a shoutout to Apocalypse Sports Trivia. Maybe the only prominent single-subject trivia league (someone go make a science or history league!), there are very interesting questions asked and is accessible for a lot of people. On a daily set of 5 questions, I’m pleased to get 2 or 3, but still the content is very good. If you love or even kind of like sports trivia, I recommend it.
