Black Spot Challenge

Thanks for showing an interest in becoming a contestant on the Black Spot Challenge, a new podcast (sort of) from Quizbeard!

With a working title of ‘Quizbeard’s Black Spot Challenge’, I'm working on a new weekly show, which will be different because it will feature interaction with a CONTESTANT. You can see where this is heading.

Recorded over a Zoom call and released as an audio podcast, each contestant will face three rounds of five questions:

Round 1: General Knowledge (1 point each)
Round 2: The Mystery Envelope (2 points each)
Round 3: The Black Spot (3 points each)

Total possible score: 30 points.

The ‘Mystery Envelope’ round will be five questions on a subject topic, selected at the time from a choice of three by the contestant. The ‘Black Spot’ round will be five prepared questions on a subject of the contestant’s prior choosing (think Mastermind’s specialist subject).

I’d like to record a fair few of these before pulling the trigger and releasing for download, so if anyone would like to take the Black Spot Challenge (or whatever it ends up being called) as a contestant, please register your interest by submitting the relevant details below and I'll be in touch:

As part of the Black Spot Challenge, you will face a round of five questions on a subject of your choosing. Please could you indicate three specialist subjects that you would be comfortable with. Anything will do - Donald Duck; The Works of Lord Byron; Snooker; The Magic Circle - anything. One of these will be chosen and questions drafted, but you won't know which until the challenge itself!
