INTERESTING MOMENTS

We have a team that always guesses Dua Lipa when they hear a modern female singer they don’t know. And they were thrilled that it paid off.

Someone mistook the film Wedding Crashers for Schindler’s List. That holocaust movie would have had a VERY different tone.

Julia Louis Dreyfus was mistaken for Julia Gillard. That would have made both Seinfeld and Prime Ministers question time very different.

And our leaders are still on top, but with a lower scoring win this week they lost their lead on highest average.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 1 February 2026

Uncategorized,

Words can be tricky. We deal with a lot of words so we know that better than most.

This week with your team names, we want you to tell us a word you pronounced wrong.

I pronounced hepatitis as hepatitties

Manslaughter = Man’s Laughter

Paradigm is Para Diggem

I like spicy food so I’m going to ask for jah-lah-pen-ohs

The Prime Minister’s backup is the Depooty Prime Minister

Any embarrassingly mispronounced words will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

Here’s what you may have missed this week at iQ Trivia.

WINNERS

JACKPOT

We love it when a team comes last in trivia, still chooses to go in for the jackpot… and then wins it.

It doesn’t matter how you do on the quiz. The jackpot is entirely separate. You only need to know one thing, and you never know when you’re going to get lucky.

TEAM NAMES

What jobs would you rather AI did?

POTUS – Less slop and hallucinations

Prime Minister

Leader of the LNP

Fatberg remover in sewers

Entry level lawyers

Tax returns

Catholic Church priest relocator

English cricketers

Washing dishes

Artificial insemination of cows

Australian Idol judge

I know 6 Supreme Court justices that could be swapped out

Real estate parasites (agents)

Trivia team name generator

Trivia host spellchecker

Trivia host (we got plenty of these)

TriviArt

Slimy Apple

Rocket Mouse

Invisible Berry

Funny Court

Lawyer Dance

Liam Neeson Venus

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We played a clip of Return to Innocence by Enigma, and one team, helped considerably by their level of alcohol consumption, joined in enthusiastically with the native chanting… only to find out later that the chanting was actually about getting drunk.

What animal learned to use a stick? A stick insect.

We really owe a shout out to Hannah, who regularly wins our trivia in Dee Why, but isn’t allowed to win because she works there. But she does better than entire teams, and she does so while working behind the bar.

And there were some new winners, but no change at the very top of the leaderboard.
