About this listen

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.

  • Four Nicole Kidmans in One $6000 Pantsuit
    May 13 2025

    We come to this place for trivia. we come to answer for it Episode 5 to laugh, to cry, to hear James assuredly espouse “the philosophy of lifeguard,” and then minutes later ask what body parts "cans" are. Because we all need to know that. All of us.

    That indescribable feeling we get when AJ, doing a spot-on impression of the creepy old man from Family Guy, riffs on the idea of Abraham Lincoln’s corpse racing the luge.

    Dazzling mental images of a big purple dinosaur peeing at a urinal. Space suits you can smell.

    Somehow, hemorrhoids feel funny in a place like this. And stories of old underwear taken on vacation feel perfect and pointless. Because here, they are.

  • The Tragic School Bus Inside the Newman Body
    May 6 2025

    In the fourth episode of every Gary's favorite trivia podcast, beloved teacher and Miss Frazzled, Elyse tries to keep the wheels on the bus from coming off, off, OFF while truant C-minus students AJ, James, and Zach spend the hour proving they should've paid attention in class by musing on such unknowable mysteries as "what is a yard?” "why is a pound?” and “ does two unrelated people having similar names but different ages constitute trivia?” They learn the hard way that nobody gets a free lunch (except Zach) and get schooled by the baby versions of themselves. Because the only thing more powerful than knowledge is a leaf blower to the face.

  • Bozo Comics Presents: Al Capone vs The Milk Man
    Apr 29 2025

    In the third episode of Epcot’s best trivia podcast, mob boss and Canadian Ellen DeGeneres Elyse Willems drags secret weaklings James, AJ, and Zach to the swamp of her dreams to start gettin’ some answers. Will James‘s bicep be fast enough to save them from suffering the same fate as the carefree women who drink gin or milk? Will it take the emergence of unsung heroes Spider-Man 3 and Dr. Needleman to rescue them from the masked men waiting in the Denny’s they all call home? And will they finally learn the only superpower they needed all along was something that two out of three of them already had: a syphilis-free brain?
