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.

I love this podcast. I learned about it from “Tales from the stinky dragon” my favorite D&D podcast. My favorite bit is when they ask for a sponsorship and threaten to record an episode from the building of whatever brand it is. Please make more episodes where someone else is the question master (I’m open to join the podcast if you’d like) because Elise deserves to be asked several niche questions more often.
I also enjoy when AJ spirals into jiminy glick

I learned. I laughed. I watched cat in the hat.

This was funny. I laughed. And learned. It was like a Saturday special, lessons learned. It was like an episode of Saved by the Bell, there was a screech, a Zach, an A.C. and a Lisa. Needs more Belding though.
