Jon Nelsen · Editor & Publisher, ThanksgivingTrivia.com

Jon runs the CheapTrivia network — a publisher of trivia content for pub hosts, classroom teachers, family game-night organizers, and corporate event planners. He started CheapTrivia in 2019 after running pub trivia events and finding existing question packs either too academic or too dated to use without rewriting. Today the network publishes verified, host-tested trivia across 9 themed sites covering holidays, fandoms, and event-format guides.

Our editorial standards

Every trivia entry on this site goes through a verification process before it's published:

  1. Source check. Each fact is cross-checked against at least two reputable sources — official references, original publications, encyclopedic sources, or primary documents.
  2. Currency check. Facts that can change over time are dated and re-verified annually. Where we know a fact is current as of a specific year, we say so inline.
  3. Difficulty calibration. Questions tagged easy / medium / hard are calibrated against typical pub-trivia difficulty bands — easy ≈ 80% answer rate, medium ≈ 50%, hard ≈ 20%.
  4. Bias review. We flag and rewrite questions that lean on regional knowledge, dated cultural references, or assumptions about audience demographics.

Corrections
