Boombox Bingo (Geeks Who Drink)

Boombox Bingo brings to the bingo world exactly what Geeks Who Drink brings to trivia: accessible gameplay, creative theming, hilarious hosts, and impeccable taste. (Okay, well, some of the folks on staff unironically love Nickelback, so we’ll leave taste out of it.) Just like regular bingo, players will aim to win prizes by completing specific patterns on their bingo boards. Unlike regular bingo, we’ve swapped out the boring numbers for epic songs from all genres and eras for you to jam out to and sing along with your friends. It’s exactly the kind of laid-back fun that’s perfect for groups of any size. Join us for this monthly FREE show every 2nd Thursday!

Accessible Gameplay

Similar to our GWD quizzes, Boombox Bingo is played on your phone. That means no messy daubers full of ink that leave your skin stained neon pink for the next 24 hours, and easy edits when you make a mistake on your board. That’s good news for those of you who are still confusing Bon Jovi’s “You Give Love a Bad Name” with their completely separate song “Shot Through the Heart.”

Creative Theming

If you’ve played a GWD game before, you should know we don’t settle for general themes like “rock songs” and “musical theater.” Our harebrained editorial team is putting their creative chops to the test.

We’re pumping in that good Geeks Who Drink energy by splitting each game into two ‘sides’ united by a common theme. So you might get something like ‘Only ’90s Kids Will Get This,’ divided into a playlist full of 90’s hits and another full of songs recorded before the artist hit 22. Or ‘Déjà Vu’—two playlists whose tracks have the same set of 75 titles…but totally different songs. These themes will let us jump all over the map in terms of time, genre, and mainstream-itude, meaning every game will have a wide range of jams and be totally different from the last.
