From Quiz "My Dad Wrote a Porno" - Series 2

Answer: Amsterdam

'Belinda Blinked 2' picks up almost immediately where 'Belinda Blinked 1' left of, recommencing Belinda's morning at work after her big deal after the charity tombola. After being congratulated by her boss, Tony, she and Giselle engage in some gossip at the Ritz Spa in London. It's there that Belinda learns of what happened to cause Giselle to lose her hair during the tombola (it's a bit unrealistic and, frankly, upsetting). Soon though, Belinda is on her way to the city of Amsterdam where, after being picked up by a taxi cab, she's sent to the city's canal district (isn't it all canals?) and brought to an old, renovated warehouse to meet with Rouse's financial director, Dr. Robbins. And he's a bit of a voyeur, as it would seem. Oh yeah, and this is just the beginning of Rocky Flintstone's second erotic novel: 'Belinda Blinked 2: The continuing story of, dripping sex, passion and big business deals.: Keep following the sexiest sales girl in business as she earns her huge bonus by removing her silk blouse.' That's the whole title.

Answer: Steeles Pots and Pans

The very first chapter sees Belinda through her erotic and unprofessional job interview with her future boss, Tony, for an £85,000/year job with a new car and travel perks included. Tony and his human resources manager, Bill, survey Belinda in more than one way before Tony's secretary, Giselle, comes along with the contract and an...erm...bonus encounter before the deal is done. Suffice to say, the pots and pans industry-- the sexiest of the industries-- is about to get even sexier...with business and leadership! And so begins 'Belinda Blinked; 1 A modern story of sex, erotica and passion. How the sexiest sales girl in business earns her huge bonus by being the best at removing her high heels.' as written by Rocky Flintstone, with all of that punctuation intact. His son, Jamie Morton, reads the book with his friends Alice Levine and James Cooper. They both love and hate it.

Answer: Alabama

John did not have anything flattering to say about his home town in Alabama. He felt the limited view of his fellow citizens was a depressing outlook for the future, and believed it was possible that the local law enforcement had covered up a crime.

Answer: Epsom Hall

After visiting the O2, Belinda whisks herself off to the Ritz Spa to meet with the Duchess (arriving five minutes late!) and the two create plans to visit the Duchess' estate-- the Elizabethan Epsom Hall-- where Belinda will be introduced to several members of high society. During her tour, Belinda is shown the secret room behind the water closet containing several floor-to-ceiling glass mirrors and several unique implements, some of which Belinda is encouraged to wear to dinner, even though it may be severely inappropriate to do so. Of course, she does anyways, much to the Duchess' whim, before going to dinner and meeting TV journalist Tara Gold, security agency CEO Jim Walters, OBE and city banker Norman Askwith, and his companion, fashion designer to the rich and famous Chiara Montague. Sir James Godwin, the owner of Steeles, also happens to be in attendance. Of particular note, the Duchess spends the night toying with Belinda, forcing our protagonist to blame the frozen Chicken Kievs made for dinner for her behavior.

Answer: Wool

Although frightened by the risk of a terrorist attack on Peter Rouse's cookware firm and Dr. Robbins' interesting use of surgical scissors and tweezers to remove her clothing, Belinda is introduced quite informally to Dr. Robbins' personal secretary, Helga, who seems to be wearing several wool garments. Eventually, Belinda gives her name, address, and phone number to Helga for "business and personal reasons" before she travels through the labyrinthine office to Peter's room. What results is a sexy moment in a sink before they head to dinner at a 1920s-themed restaurant. This goes poorly as Belinda seems to drink too much with the meal, finding herself to be way too sloppy. Fortunately, no one seems to care. It may be a business dinner, but she's out of the country, right?

From Quiz "S-Town" Podcast

Answer: Murder

John thought that Kabram Burt, an affluent man in his twenties, had gotten away with the beating death of another young man named Dillon Nichols. This turned out to be false. It's possible and probable that John used this tiny bit of rumor to bring Brian into his world, as John was a very lonely genius. When they investigated together, John seemed disinterested in finding the truth, and more interested in discussing his dismal world views with Brian. John may have been a man that was a little too smart for his own mental health. He knew too much to stay blissfully unaware.

Answer: The Ricky Gervais Show

By the time he began work on his podcast, Ricky Gervais was already wildly successful as the co-creator of the sitcom "The Office," which was a hit in the UK and again with a US version, as well as with "Extras" on HBO. Gervais's podcast was an early entrant into the field of podcasting, and delighted listeners with its focus on Karl Pilkington, a sort of wise-fool character who played straight man to Merchant and Gervais's hilarity.

From Quiz "My Dad Wrote a Porno" - Series 2

Answer: Russian

The dinner leads to a night at Casino Etoile in Amsterdam where Belinda, now significantly less drunk, expands her business contacts by meeting Russian vodka and caviar magnate Grigor Calanski, who refers to her as 'English' for undisclosed reasons. Belinda is thrilled with this connection since the fragmented nature of Russia, as a country, has made it difficult to find a distributor for Steeles Pots and Pans' wares. While Peter Rouse leaves with Calanski's partner, Laura, Belinda leaves with Grigor for the Red Light District, heading down a seedy alley en route for something a bit more adventurous.

From Quiz "S-Town" Podcast

Answer: Boozer & Boozer Downs & Downs

Boozer Downs was the local lawyer in the small town of Woodstock, and was John's personal lawyer as well. John's friends claimed that John's genius had earned him a lot of money over the years, but he never left a will. Boozer confirmed both that John left no will and was "unbanked", as John had also claimed to Brian. If Boozer had a different first name, it was never mentioned. Unbanked meant that John's wealth was not stored in any banking institution. It was speculated, surmised, and confirmed that John had stored away his wealth in various secret ways.

Answer: Brazil

Although Belinda crashes her convertible, she's saved by the airbag and seems to have the wherewithal to pose as a damsel in distress for any possible passers-by. Two hours later, she ends up getting the attention of a 1960s Mustang driven by Marco Origuez, a Brazilian man (and he knew it!) with a Boston accent. As they drive back to his Central London apartment to check for internal organ damage, he reveals that he knows her as 'the queen of pots and pans' because he met Bella. He was actually the plastic surgeon who performed Jim Sterling's experimental transplant surgery. Unsurprisingly, they spend the night at his place.

Answer: Countess

Grigor Calanski is late to meet the Countess, Lara, at the Red Light District club and she proves to be an enigmatic woman with her responses and demeanor. After attending a Parisian striptease (featuring Chantelle and a sexy version of Herb Alpert's 'A Walk in the Black Forest'), Belinda is ushered into a room where she, Grigor, and Lara spend two hundred minutes...only to discover that she's in a Red Light District shop window on display for all to watch! It doesn't phase her too much. The following morning, Belinda ends up heading back to the airport and returning to London, but not before meeting a sexy plane co-pilot and encountering a group of thirty women heading to a national cookware conference at the O2.

From Quiz "My Dad Wrote a Porno" - Series 1

Answer: Three & 3

For one of her first major assignments, Belinda is asked to attend a charity event with many backers, leading her to an evening at the Horse and Jockey wearing nothing more than her tennis clothes (sans bra and panties). Inevitably, Tony leads her to a maze wherein she's handcuffed to a trellis with red plastic handcuffs. And so begins her foray into the business workings of Steels Pots and Pans; she's met by three men, all only wearing black, leather thongs, and all of whom are potential investors in the company: Alphonse Stirbacker from Belgium (who's a voyeur), Jim Stirling from America (who's a bit gross), and Peter Rouse from Holland (who marks her with sexual symbols, binding her to him sexually for the next year. He vows to meet her at the hotel at 11:30 that night for further business dealings.

Answer: Brooks

Friends called him John B or John Brooks, as can be common in the south. It's been fairly usual to hear people in the south referred to by both first and middle names, as though they were just one name.

Answer: Distressed

The story immediately passes to a dinner with Claus Bloch, the Austrian client Belinda was connected with following her presentation at the O2. This man, who turns out to be the Direct Retail Door-to-Door and Coffee Morning Organization CEO and Managing Director, takes her out to lunch at The Grosvenor in London. Over a blue cheese fish mousse served on distressed lettuce and a bottle of champagne, a spot of something is spilled on Belinda's dress and, obviously, it needs to be removed. What follows is both carnal and concerning and it only escalates from there...but it's not over.

From Quiz "My Dad Wrote a Porno" - Series 1

Answer: The Duchess

After Belinda is freed from the maze she's instructed to head to the charity Tombola event for the Asses and Donkeys Trust without even getting a new change of clothes. Fortunately, her fellow Glee Team members, Giselle and Bella, are also there in a state of unkempt order. What they discover when the bidding begins though, is that they are the prizes for the event, and the bidders will be able to use them as personal servants for twelve hours. Bella is bought for £350 by Jim Stirling, Tony buys Giselle for £300, and Bella is sold off to a woman in a white linen suit and a Panama hat for £300. She later finds out that this woman is none other than 'The Duchess'.

Answer: New York

Brian lived in New York and traveled to Alabama to interview John in person. He also looked into the alleged murder of Dillon Nichols. The real Dillon who was in a fight with Kabram Burt did not have the last name of Nichols, and was not even badly injured in the fight. During his trips there, Brian interviewed many people who had known John.

From Quiz Favorite Podcasts

Answer: Number of electors in the US electoral college

"Five Thirty Eight" was named after the number of electors in the electoral college, a complex institution that elects the US President every four years. Each of the states is assigned a certain number of electors, or representatives, who submit votes. A populated state like California will have many electors; a less populated state such as South Dakota will have considerably fewer. However they are distributed, the total number of electors equals 538. The system has been criticized for being overly complex, because a candidate can win the popular vote but not the actual election because of the electoral college. Talk of abolishing the system comes up regularly, especially by high school students who have to learn the system in social studies class.

Answer: Brussels

And after work is done with Claus Bloch, Belinda heads to Brussels, Belgium for dealings with Alfonse Stirbacker, one of the three men she encountered in the maze in the first 'Belinda Blinked' novel. Stirbacker takes Belinda out for two unique sexual adventures, the first at a meeting with Madelaine Chocolat(e) who takes Belinda into a pool of cointreau-flavoured chocolate and the second to a special library for an exclusive private party with eighteen other people-- nine men and nine women-- who engage in a sexual form of speed dating. It ends with Belinda getting assaulted by the paparazzi en route to a fleet of waiting vehicles. Apparently, this thing goes on twice a year. Just another day on the job.

Answer: Dressage

The night after the Pentra visit, Belinda takes Bella with her to Forsters of Knightsbridge, Dressage Outfitters to Royalty, so that they can purchase riding gear to better suit the aristocratic lifestyle that Belinda dreams to attain. After being introduced to their outfitter, Adaam (with three As!), they drink a few bottles of champagne and receive their vital measurements before a young woman named Samantha is sent to fetch the garments for a half hour (a 1,000 garment for Bella and a 5,000 one for Belinda). The visit proves to be one that the women enjoy for their own reasons, and before long they receive their exorbitantly-priced purchases as happy referrals.

Answer: Hazel

Before long, Belinda and Bella end up on a Texas-bound flight overseas to reunite with U.S. businessman Jim Sterling, and much to Belinda's surprise, the flight is co-piloted by Hazel, the woman she met on her Amsterdam-to-London trip. They're upgraded from Economy Comfort Class to VIP, but after a couple of bottles of complimentary champagne, Hazel emerges to lead them through an emergency door and up a spiral staircase to the crew quarters for an hour in room B3 (which is, as per its name, a room big enough for three passengers). There's a bit of turbulence and, eventually, they make a safe landing in the U.S.

From Quiz "My Dad Wrote a Porno" - Series 1

Answer: Youngish

Belinda follows the road signs back to the Horse and Jockey and makes it back just before dinner service ends at 8:20pm; the receptionist-- a youngish man behind the counter-- ends up complimenting her on her attire and Belinda believes it's just his way of flirting with her. She's probably not wrong. After drinking a bottle of Chilean Chardonnay, she heads down to the lobby to grab another bottle and meet Peter Rouse who, thankfully, shows up on time at 11:30. The two discuss business deals while lewdly sitting in the lobby and, as a testament to Belinda's persuasive tactics, Rouse admits to having ordered three thousand units of Steeles' Oxy-Brillo range that afternoon. They plan for a meeting in Amsterdam in a week before engaging in further activities, but Belinda notices a security camera in the corner of the room, potentially recording everything that's been going on in the lobby. It doesn't bother her though; it's probably just the youngish man. Later on in the night, Belinda will have a scene with the youngish man when he delivers her room service.

Answer: Maeve

Maeve is somewhat of an afterthought considering the events that occur in chapters 11 and 12 because she's still learning the ropes as Belinda and Bella surprise Giselle with a hen-do on the Costa del Sol, taking her up in Hazel's 1950s De Havilland plane full of weekend editions of "The Guardian" for delivery. They try to spend time with the poolside waiter at the Imperial Hotel and Sun Resort, Miguel, but their attention soon turns to a sunburnt Swedish man. Green Spanish wine leaves the four women tipsy enough to follow along to his yacht, and there they have a naked party with cocktails.

Answer: Brazil

Upon arriving in Texas, Belinda and Bella are whisked off to the 17th floor suites of the Sterling company hotel to discover that Jim is actually on a business trip to Brazil. That said, the deal with Steeles is already done before they arrive, begging the 'why' question, so the girls try to take it easy for the night. Belinda is shocked, however, when there's a knocking at her door in the night, and when she answers it (naked, for some reason), it's Jim! He tells her a secret-- he went to Brazil for an experimental, new procedure in the Amazon that results in a life-changing night for the both of them. It's horrifying and kind of borders on unreal science fiction.

From Quiz "S-Town" Podcast

Answer: Bibb

Bibb County Alabama was described as having a poorly educated population of less than 30,000 people. John's own brilliant mind seemed a rare commodity in Bibb County, and left him feeling very alone. John, in his late forties, did try and help his friend Tyler Goodson, a young many with several children, rise above his own tragic upbringing. John also allowed friends to tattoo and pierce his body so he could pay them money they desperately needed. John hated body art of any kind, and looked down on people with it, but he wanted to help his friends without seeming like it was charity. Bibb County was founded in the early 1800s.

John created an adult sized swing set on his property for his friend Tyler Goodson, which Tyler helped him build. John also cared for many stray dogs, knew the names of most all of the plants on the property, and was an amazing clock restorer.

Answer: 'The Special One'

The final chapter of this book, surprisingly, brings the readers to East Berlin, though well after the fall of the Berlin Wall, as Herr Bisch prepares for his 9:17am meeting with his special agent, a mole who's successfully infiltrated the ranks of Steeles Pots and Pans to get him intel and steal their product line. The deep cover seems to have netted her one million Euros and brought Bisch one step closer to obtaining the Trioxybrillo Range and bring down his competitors. Who 'The Special One' is...well...that's for another book.

Answer: Bella

After sealing the deal during a meeting on their final day (despite the deal seeming to already have been done), the girls celebrate with Jim and Hank by taking a helicopter to the Lazy P Ranch for lunch and skinny dipping in a luxurious pool. At 3:00pm, the American contingent heads back to the office for a treasury meeting, but Belinda and Bella are able to enjoy the company of tobacco-stained ranchers Doug and Chuck before heading back to the airport and onward, quickly it seems, to London. When Belinda returns to the office she checks in with Tony and reveals the good fortune brought on by her amazing business deals; she effectively turns Steeles' business around by bringing them to the big leagues and taking on such high profile clients. Belinda is rewarded, as would be expected, when she earns her bonus, but she urges Tony by bartering for Bella's rewards as well; she insists that her friend become the Key Accounts Manager for International Sales. When she does this...Tony blinks.

Answer: The Isle of Wight

Though the Duchess offers to be Belinda's slave, Belinda refuses the deal, instead asking that they be on an equal level in terms of respect. To cap off her "weird and strange weekend", Belinda ends up finishing up her time with the Duchess in one final, steamy scene in the motel room and asks for a ride back to her car. They exchange emails and plan to reunite three weeks from then on the Isle of Wight (where the Duchess can introduce her to some acquaintances). She makes it back to the office at a respectable 9:30 and considers the schedule ahead of her. And that's about it.
