## Resource

We've got one of the most celebrated photographers in the Twin Cities with us in the No Brains No Lightbulbs studio today. Mike Madison aka Bump Opera aka Mad Son aka Bum Pop Era. First Sean flexes his taxonomy ignorance in a round called "Tax-On-A-You" (01:46). Then we hit Mike with some trivia about two of his favorite things: '80s hair metal (24:41) and food (29:45). To close the show, Sean hits Chuck's achilles heel: actual trivia questions (41:12).  Check out Mike’s incredible photography work at his website and on Instagram ! No Brains, No Lightbulbs is a trivia podcast produced by Trivia Mafia in the great state of Minnesota. Click the link to find a Trivia Mafia trivia night near you!
