FunkQuest - Season 2 -Quarter Final 2 - Bryan Falchuk v Dr. Kimya Dennis​You will find out that both Kimya and Bryan are experts in their respective fields and this Second Quarter Final episode is full of insightful ​ and thought proving ideas.Question 1 was; 'Where does power come from?' Bryan felt that we all have power within ourselves - and we need to really find out what really matters to us personally so that we can fight against the power​s which hold us back.​Kimya answered her first question about building an ark - she would literally and figuratively build arks (arcs) to connect people around the world so to join together ​to beat systemic attitudes.​Question 2 - and Kimya and Bryan both took this question ​; 'How do you waste time?' and felt the question problematic because this sort of time allows you space to recover and recuperate so you can then continue to help others.Bryan chose the bobsleigh icon on the board for question 3 - answering about the best thing he got for Free. Having felt wo

FunkQuest - Season 2 - Round 2 - Episode 24 - Lora Cheadle v Sarah ElkinsEpisode 24 is the last game of season 2 round 2 before the Quarter finals begin. It is also the first head to head game that Sarah has had to play after getting through on a walkover, so she was undoubtedly nervous.Sarah started the game by choosing the 'Las vegas' Icon and her favourite takeaway is a sandwich filled with savoury sausage and spicy sauces.Lora was asked how she cheered people up -and she felt she had to join them in their misery before cheering them upLora's second question was resonant with her eldest sons hobby of climbing 14,000 ft mountains in that she would never climb Mount Everest.Sarah chose the 'Flowers' icon for question 2 and was definite that pink was not a colour she would wear.Her third question let her talk about her collection of Shot glasses - which she began during a road trip and which grew because people travelled and returned with them, for her to keep.The 'Tower Bridge' icon was also chosen b

Funkquest - Season 2 -Episode 23 - Ann Smith v Pablo GonzalezAnn and Pablo are both established FunkQuest players Ann turned up in a pink wig and and a FunkyThinkers T shirt she is a real Funkster.Ann chose the first Icon on the board which was the yoyo and answered the question about how common is common sense?Pablo's first quest was about maps - and while he has used maps - it seems that the Sat Nav system has taken over.The next question from 'the lady with the guitar' Icon - was where would Pablo make a Hiding place - a cave by the see along with extra comforts was the answer.Ann's second question was about feeling foolish and she told the story of her younger self wanting to take tennis lesson. Pablo also resonated with this.The Swiss army Knife icon gave Ann the opportunity to talk about her invention of a new system for the measurement of womens clothing.The next Question for Pablo, 'What do you always spell wrong' led to a cacophony of answers from all on the show.The Landscape icon and following q

FunkQuest - Season 2 - Round 2 - Episode 22 - Lisa Pezik v Tina DietzAfter seeing off other contenders Lisa Pezik and Tina Dietz have reached the 6th edition of FunkQuest Season 2 - Round 2.Tina was first to choose an Icon and answer the Question - which was about her ambitious nature. Descended from an entrepreneurial family, she thought everyone was the same but grew up to realise her independence and assertion are not universal traits.In her first question, Lisa revealed that when she reaches her limit, every little thing makes her crazy. Her husband and son have a mutual look, so they know to keep out of the way.In question 2 Lisa's favourite sandwich turns out to be a Jewish Deli thing, thick rye bread with lots of sourkraut, thousand island dressing and grilled cheese.Tina's favourite Panoramic View comes from living in the mountains in Costa Rica - a 360 degree view of 7 volcanoes, lots of birds and mammals - complete sensory experience.For Question 3 Tina revealed that she still believes there are mon

FunkQuest - Season 2 - Round 2 - Episode 21 - Bryan Falchuk v Terry FoxIn this FunkQuest, Season 2 round 2 - Bryan Falchuk and Terry Fox go head to head in what turns out to be a quick Round.Terry, as a relative newcomer to the FunkQuest game chose the Gears Icon, and said that after a recent house move his basement was full of stuff and he would therefore not be letting any guests into that room.Brian revealed that he did not own any Dictionaries, except for a Chinese one, which he had used when teaching in China.For Question 2, Bryan and Terry were agreed in that they prefer small gatherings to large parties, although outwardly showing confidence in what they do professionally, both felt that they themselves were introverts and smaller gatherings allow a better building of relationshipsWhen asked in his next quest who was his prefered Magician - Terry chose Gandalf the Grey (a wizard rather than magician) - becase of his love of reading fantasy fiction.In his question, Question 3, Bryan admitted that he bin

Funkquest- Season 2- Episode 20- Ann Z v Kimya DennisAnn began the game with Question 1; about her knowledge of CPR (Cardiopulmmonary Resuscitation). She learned how to do it for a babysitting couse when younger and although not used for used for years, felt sure it would kick in when needed.Kimya was excited about the fact that technology is helping to reach those who are in need.Question 2: Ann found that she rolled her eyes, mostly because her children were very critical of her even when she has been helping them. (Just Typical).Kimya answered the same question, rolling her eyes at people who constantly say things like 'we're all in the same boat' especially in the times of Coronavirus. She felt that to have a unifying experience, people need to understand their differences.Question 3 was about Radical Action - and Kimya felt that being able to challenge the key decision makers of the world and speaking out was good.Ann was asked where she would like to visit - citing Iceland and Alaska as places she woul

FunkQuest - Season 2 - Round 2 - Episode 19 - Alison Donaghey v Lisa Marie Platske​Both Alison Donaghey and Lisa Marie Platske are old pioneers of ​FunkQuest game, as such, episode 19, ​in season 2 of FunkQuest, should be a good one.Alison began this game choosing the 'Box House' icon and answering the question - "Which is the most underused room in your house?" Filled with innuendo, as well as finding out she has trouble sleeping Alison's ​bedroom was the answer.In her first question we found that; unlike most people, ​Lisa Marie has no interest in going shopp​ing she finds it painful and unlike Alison, 'hanging out' in a mall or shopping centre is something she can't stand.The second question for Lisa Marie was about the picture on ​her desktop - everyone has something - and for Lisa Marie; a picture of a girl running along the beach inspires peace and tranquility. Alison interrupted Lisa question knowing her desktop thing was a little less tranquil. (See below)​Question 2 for Alis

Kam Knight and Kerry Wekelo both came into ​​Season 2, Round 2 of FunkQuest as '​​Sheriffs'. Both were knocked out in the first round but resurrected after the unavailability of two other players.Kerry chose the first icon and ​question and Kam chose to answer the same question. For Kerry the answer to having given a blood donation was a simple 'Never', although she has a rare blood type, she has a condition which means that she tends to pass out​.Kam acknowledged he had given blood once and was ​hounded by blood drive organisations. His blood is good to use, but in the USA, blood drive organisations get paid for the amount of blood they collect - which put him off.Question 2 "Street Fighter 2" was the game ​Kam played for hours as a kid and he got to be very good at it.Kerry was asked to make us believe something about her we didn't know. We now know that she has written books on​ the subject - Yoga for Kids.With​ Question 3 we also learned that Kerry likes to 'waste' time training and walking and is ​enjoy
