Meet the Quizmaster: Blake Wexler
Excited to start a new quizmaster this week. Blake Wexler is a very funny comedian from Philly who is now based in LA. I know that my comedian buddies aren’t getting a ton of work these days, and that they make for terrific quizmasters. So I reached out to Blake and was thrilled when he said yes, because I knew that people would think their quiz was being hosted by Penn Badgley from the Netflix show YOU (see below). Blake joins the team this week, and does have some availability if anybody is looking to play!

Huge Quizzo Weekend Coming Up!
Folks, we’re headed to one of the biggest weekends in quizzo history, with a championship game Saturday night, two Sunday quizzes, and sign ups for the Quizzo Cup. Here’s the lineup:

We’re going to be airing it live on the Johnny Goodtimes Quizzo Facebook Page at 8:30 on Saturday night (if the technology gods allow). And you’re welcome to play along from home!

Sunday Night Quiz: We’ve got two chances to play on Zoom on Sunday night. We’re up to 23 teams so far, but do have room for a few more. You can sign up here, for teams of 2-8 players. It’s a fun twist on the regular quiz.
Quizzo Cup: We’re up 31 teams signed up for the Quizzo World Cup so far, and would love to get up to 48. We’re going to have a ton of fun with this thing. Stats, team badges, team logos, team uniforms. Let’s get as ridiculous as possible. Signs ups go until Sunday at 11:59.
