S17 E7 - Justin and Hallie Go Back to School - a podcast by Quiz and Hers

It’s back-to-school season, so Justin has a classroom full of trivia to start the new year off right! We also get educated about European history, a rock musician, and a famous comedian!

2:09: Q1 (Movies & TV): What actor and comedian did get respect when he gave a rare dramatic performance in Natural Born Killers, though he’s probably better known for starring in Back to School?

9:03: Q2 (Times & Places): The kids wouldn’t be going back to school if not for compulsory education, and one of the earliest modern compulsory education systems was implemented by Frederick the Great in 1763, in what now-defunct nation, which was the dominant force in unifying Germany?

16:58: Q3 (Everything Else): Developed by social psychologist Eliot Aronson, what teaching technique splits students into groups to piece together a particular part of a lesson, and is meant to break down barriers and encourage friendships?

23:40: Q4 (Sports & Games): When the kids get back to gym class, they will undoubtedly be subjected to what sport – the bane of athletically useless nerds – in which players must avoid rubber spheres, though if they catch one, they can get a teammate back in the game?

29:07: Q5 (Arts & Literature): When the kids go back, hopefully they will have a better experience than the students at Hailsham Boarding School, in Never Let Me Go, a novel by what Japanese-British author, also known for The Remains of the Day?

32:43: Q6 (Music): Sharing its name with its lead singer’s stage name, what shock rock band is known for the song “School’s Out”?
