Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 16 August 2026

So it seems that after being “silenced” on the radio, Kyle Sandilands is setting up a podcast, which costs $99 per year to access. (And it turns out it’s already hit a wall with “techincal issues”.)

That got us thinking about what you can do with $99.

For your team name this week, tell us what you would do with $99 that ISN’T subscribing to Kyle.

Enough earplugs to last the rest of my life

One tank of petrol

Entering the jackpot at trivia for two years

Paying a child to have a temper tantrum

Literally set it on fire

Any alternatives to funding Kyle Sandiland’s media empire will get a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.

INTERESTING MOMENTS

We asked if you’d rather be trapped in a room with a tiger snake or 30 funnel web spiders, and one team’s answer was Sabrina Carpenter… which we’re pretty sure was a mistake based on the audio question that came before.

One team opted on the dilemma question for living on a traffic island rather than the Jurassic Park island, but noted that they actually would have preferred the dinosaurs… and that was the decisive vote in a 7-6 decision. So they played it perfectly. Either way they were going to win.

A team who said they weren’t going to play… still stayed and created their own answer sheet.

And our leaders have managed to win every week so far.

Team Name Bonus Point – Week of 9 August 2026

Think back to 20 years ago.

Now think of a current opinion that would have seemed insane 20 years ago.

Now make that your team name for this week.

Left wing people and the Pope are on the same side

You can make a living uploading videos of you doing ordinary daily activities

Learning to code is a total waste

Making six figures gets you nowhere near buying a place to live

Non-alcoholic beer is mainstream

Trillionaires are a thing

A machine thinks for me now

Any current opinion that would have sounded crazy 20 years ago will get you a bonus point.

Have an interesting week.
