Episode 911: Merry Quizmas and a Happy New Earful for 2026

It's Christmas again - but didn't we have one twelve months ago? Well, just in case Dame Shirley Bassey is correct and it all just a little bit of history repeating, we might as well mark the fact in the traditional MusicalTalk way - with our annual festive quiz! So, pit your wits against Thos as he attempts to bamboozle, educate, irritate and inform with twelve questions covering 150 years of musical theatre history - from 1875 to last night! With tributes to the late great Tom Lehrer, and touching on musicals about everything from airships, the Gold Rush, Sherlock Holmes, Edgar Allan Poe and Alfred E. Neuman to hybrid power sources and architects, and with songs galore from the last few years - it's a wonderful way to wrap up a fabulous year of musicals! Ingredients: May Contain Debbie Reynolds.
