Bob was sitting in the public bar of Berowra Heights Hotel some time in the late 90¹s in his usual state of inebriation when a friend wandered in and asked him when the Manchester United air disaster was. "February 1958" he said and watched his friend wander into the other bar. "What the hell?" he thought, so he followed. As he walked through the door, some guy with a mic said "Who had the hit with this in the 80¹s?" and played  "Obsession¹ by Animotion. "Football trivia and obscure 80¹s music?! I¹ve found where I belong!" said Bob to himself, whilst a tear of happiness trickled down his cheek.

So for the next few years Bob played as much trivia as was possible and enjoyed the many benefits. Well, the drinks. So when he was asked to run a trivia night for Fame Trivia in Umina in 2001 he jumped at the chance whilst his liver sighed with relief. Since then he has regularly run trivia nights

2 or 3 times a week and made far too many inappropriate jokes in amongst the questions.

If you don¹t know him from trivia, you might know him as Benny, the world¹s bounciest keyboard player from Abbalanche, one of Australia¹s premier tribute shows. Or you may have just seen him in the street and laughed quietly to yourself. That¹s OK, most people do.

When asked to name their favourite thing about Bob, most of his friends plead the 5th amendment.

Even after 10 years of running trivia, Bob still knows nothing about Geography.

Ken has moonlighted for Fame since May 2003. Prior to this, he used to work as a yak sherpa on the Mongolian steppes where he first met the Dalai Lama. Returning with his holiness to India, he then worked as an assistant coach to the Indian badminton team before travelling to Amazon where he wore nothing but a loin cloth as he lived with an indigenous tribe intent on teaching them chess. After orchestrating the overthrow of the provincial government in the region he was extradited to France to face charges of singing karaoke sober in Lyon. Unfortunately, his flight had to land in Morocco due to a planking episode where Ken then lived as a camel salesman for two years before he swam to Spain and became a concert pianist. He was eventually sacked by trying to introduce polka tunes into his performances. Disheartened, he decided to become a movie star and after major parts in several blockbusters returned in Australia to live out the dream as a trivia host.

I’ve been hosting Fame Trivia at PJ O’Reilly’s in the city since 2005 and I have to say, I love it! Sure there are times when I go begrudgingly, but by the end of the night, my spirits are lifted and I’m on a bit of a high. A testament I think to the great bunch that come along to PJ’s week after week.

By day you’ll find me playing the classic hits on Canberra’s 2CA. Yes it’s on ye olde AM band, but also on digital radio & streaming on-line at www.2ca.com.au.

I’m originally from Christchurch, New Zealand but don’t hold that against me or I’ll bring up the under-arm bowling incident. (No, we’ll NEVER forget it!) Australia has been my home since 1992 and in Canberra since 1995 so at least most of the accent has gone but I do occasionally slup up.

Nat is originally from Sydney’s Northern Beaches and first discovered Fame Trivia as a player at the Harbord Beach Hotel. After marrying one of her Trivia team-mates and having their first child, she started to host Trivia in early 2006. Since then Nat has moved to Melbourne, had another two babies and still continues to host for Fame Trivia.  Nat currently hosts at the Railway Hotel in Fitzroy North every Tuesday night from 8.00pm. It’s a small & friendly pub so come & join us.

Version 1: Hey there, I've been having fun entertaining for a long time now. Spent a while on the Radio, I've played a few songs at a few functions and I've asked well over 21000 quiz questions. We have an great time at the Fame Trivia nights I host, making friends, showing off our Intellect (or lack of it) and winning prizes. All in all its not a bad way to make a living. I'm really looking forward to seeing you at one of my regular shows. Version 2: Bernard The Brain was born in Sydney, into a family of Eskimos, as a boy he was taken from NSW by missionaries, The Brain spent his youth in Canberra, jamming forks into power points, and building his Intellectual Gladiators obstacle course in his car port. After going to the highly regarded local TAFE to study snack foods, The Brain increased his I.Q. to over 9000. Unfortunately after an incident with his fork and power point hobby, he now has the intelligence of a walnut. Running for mayor on a Pecans are Delicious platform, he believes he can win in a landside, and hopes to someday have someone name a sandwich after him. P.S. He likes long walks on the Beach at sunset and pines at night for world peace.
