Wax QuizzicalThe quiz show where the experts are idiots. Author: Comedy Republic
A celebrity sits down to do a quiz. Simple enough. Except their only lifeline is a phone call from whoever happens to be available - a Boost Juice employee, the Devil, Alexander Graham Bell, a cloud.Wax Quizzical is a fully improvised quiz show hosted by Kyran Nicholson, live from Comedy Republic in the heart of Melbourne. Each episode, a comedian attempts ten trivia questions with the help of the brains trust - Australias best improvisers, deep in character, completely committed, and almost entirely useless.The result is a show that somehow teaches you things while being completely unhinged.New episodes fortnightly. Live recordings at Comedy Republic, 231 Bourke St Melbourne - be in the room when it happens. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

LIVE! Alex Ward vs. Mr. Trivia, Blade the Crab Truther, and Sarah the Dutch Historian
Episode 165
Sunday, 19 July, 2026
Why does British tradition insist that at least six ravens are always kept at the Tower of London, their wings clipped so they can't fly away?Alex Ward is back for another crack, straight off a stand-up gig in Hobart and still a bit haunted by how she went here last time. Talking her through it: Mr. Trivia, holder of the world record for the worst trivia performance in history, who just wants to get one right so he can retire; Blade, who has worked out that the politicians were all replaced with crabs; and Sarah, a Dutch historian whose every source turns out to be AI-generated. They all seem to have plenty of theories and no answers.It's a new LIVE episode of Wax Quizzical with host Kyran Nicholson, Lena Moon and Pedro Cooray.Wax Quizzical Live: https://www.comedyrepublic.com.au/event/38:591Alex Ward: Literally Anyone at Replay Festival: https://www.comedyrepublic.com.au/event/38:565Greg Larsen: Unrelenting Ultra-Violence at Replay Festival: https://www.comedyrepublic.com.au/event/38:583Lena Moon: Sounds Like A Brag at Replay Festival: https://www.comedyrepublic.com.au/event/38:580The improvisors on Wax are all members of Something Good - a weekly improv show, every Wednesday at Comedy Republic - tickets to Something Good are available here.Join the brains trust today to get bonus episodes and access to the full archive - plus, you'll be a part of the community that help us make this show.All eps recorded at Comedy Republic in the heart of Melbourne, Australia Hosted on Acast.
