We take a moment at the beginning of each episode to remind our listeners how much we appreciate the support you show to Designated Quizzers. We are an independent podcast team that works many extra hours beyond our regular jobs to write and research content for the show. Our goal is to bring you laughter and provide you with an escape from YOUR day-to-day.

Cocktail - Festive Holiday Pomegranate Gin Cocktail

INGREDIENTS

1 oz. fresh pomegranate juice

1 oz. fresh orange juice

1 teaspoon honey

2 oz. gin

8 oz. sparkling water

Fresh thyme and orange slices for garnish

Outro

Now that the quiz is over, we have to wrap this up and get going. You might not know this, but I took a part-time second job as one of Santa’s elves; and Lisa has an even important role as one of Santa’s hos. What does that pay anyway? Are there benefits? Is that job off the books or under the table?

Indie Podcasting

As you know, each week we feel it’s important to take a moment to recognize our colleagues and fellow creators from the world of indie podcasting. We say it each week, but we know how hard these folks are working to bring their brand of entertainment to you. From idea conception...to writing and recording...to editing and promotion...so please support your favorite indie podcaster. Sure...whether its your favorite department store, coffee shop, or entertainment production, there’s something to be said for the consistency and predictability of the larger, well-known providers of these goods and services...But, we ask you to also take a moment to remember that unexpected, amazing meal that you had at a restaurant that only exists in your city or the one-of-a-kind painting that you fell in love with at an outdoor gallery on the streets of your town last summer...those special moments, special treasures...those are your indie podcasters.

Welcome Our Special Guests - That Damn Podcast (linktr.ee/ThatDamnPod)

This week, Designated Quizzers joins forces with That Damn Podcast for our first ever collaborative podcast. Instead of competing against each other, Jason and Lisa TEAM UP to battle the trio of Don, Carlos, and Zach in a two versus three battle to the death...well, actually, no one is harmed during the episode (well, maybe Don's mom, but she's ok now). Who wins? Who suffers the punishment shot? And who's comments are the most inappropriate?! It's all good-natured humor and entertainment with your enjoyment in mind.

This Week's Cocktail - The Godfather

INGREDIENTS

1 oz. Scotch whiskey

1 oz. Amaretto

Combine ingredients in an old-fashioned glass. Add ice. Stir and enjoy!

This Week's Punishment Shot - The Cement Mixer

INGREDIENTS

3/4 oz. Irish cream liqueur

3/4 oz. Freshly squeezed lime juice

Add Irish cream liqueur to shot glass, layer lime juice over the top by carefully pouring off the back of a spoon.
