The Trivia Guy

***SHOW CANCELLATION*** We regret to say that the performer had to withdraw due unforeseen circumstances. Our sincere apologies if you arrive at the venue to see the show because you saw it listed in our program. The programs were already finalized and printed when the cancellation occurred.

 Charismatic trivia enthusiast Jeff hosts his first live podcast recording while struggling to write a best man speech for his son Danny's wedding, which is in three hours. As Jeff connects with the audience over trivia and stories, the clock ticks toward the ceremony. Jeff must find the right words as well as the courage to face a truth he's been avoiding all night.
