He says in his blog, "If you’re in the St. Louis area, the trivia night at the Schlafly Tap Room tomorrow evening sounds like it’s going to be quite the event. I predict it will be to the off-the-cuff trivia signing in New York what the Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions is to your high school teacher running a Jeopardy! game from the blackboard on days when she didn’t have a lesson plan. So stop by and say hi."

One page per day. He starts with a "this happened today in history" fact then has ten questions around a Jeopardy!-type theme. Then another fact followed by more themed questions followed by another fact followed by more questions. The format does vary some days. The answers follow each month so it's hard not to look at the next day when you check.
