Happy Saturday! If you’re looking for a way to wake up your brain that isn’t just doomscrolling, the weekly Saturday quiz is officially here to humble us. Whether you’re a total trivia nerd or just love random facts that live in your brain rent-free, this one has something for everyone.

What’s on the menu?

This week’s batch of questions is a bit of a rollercoaster. We’re covering everything from the wild world of pop culture—like the history of Peppa Pig’s voice actors and iconic movies set in Chicago—to some genuinely interesting science hacks.

Did you know that ketchup, blood, and toothpaste actually have something in common? They are all examples of non-Newtonian fluids. It’s giving science class, but make it practical.

The Trivia Lowdown

Think you can hang? Here’s a quick taste of what the quiz covers:

  • History & Geography: From the yearning for East Germany (Ostalgie) to the ruling dynasties of Portugal.
  • Pop Culture: Which high-profile politician used to rap as Mr. Cardamom? (Spoiler: It’s Zohran Mamdani).
  • Sports & Landmarks: How did Saffie Osborne make history in horse racing, and which massive church is now a Lego set? (Hint: It’s the Sagrada Família with a cool 12,060 pieces).

If you find yourself struggling with the answers, don't worry—real talk, some of these are highkey difficult. But that's the vibe. It’s all about learning something new while you kill time before your brunch plans.
