Tatering Around is filmed before a live studio audience

Back in 2018 I was on a very famous trivia team
They won every two weeks, it was just like a dream
They're called the Taters, and they are Geeks Who Drink
Come out to Phoenix Landing, if you like to think
And you're more Tater than a Mefite
Or you're more Mefite than a Tater
