Go Fact Yourself LIVE: Bill Prady vs Melora Hardin

Go Fact Yourself is the pop culture trivia show from LAist, and on Sunday, October 25 it takes the stage in Pasadena with two guests who know their way around a television set. Writer and producer Bill Prady squares off against actor Melora Hardin, with surprise experts joining the hosts for a game the organizers promise is unlike any other trivia night. If you are building a list of things to do in Los Angeles this fall, this is a low-cost, high-laughs pick.

When: Sunday, October 25, 2026, 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM Where: The Crawford, 474 S Raymond Ave, Pasadena Price: Free to register for general admission, or $20 for a guaranteed seat Doors and snacks: Concessions open at 3:00 PM

Who is playing

The hosts are J. Keith van Straaten, known for Ask Me Another, and Helen Hong, a recurring panelist on Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me. They run the questions and keep the banter moving. Prady co-created The Big Bang Theory and more recently co-created the sci-fi comedy Stuart Fails to Save the Universe. Hardin is best known as a breakout star of The Office and recently starred in the Broadway play McNEAL. The lineup is subject to change, and the guest "experts" are kept secret until showtime.

What to expect

Expect a loose, funny game built around pop culture rather than a quiz that rewards memorizing dates. Because the format pits celebrity guests against each other, the fun comes from the trash talk and the wrong answers as much as the right ones. The organizers note the program may contain some mature language or themes, so it suits an adult crowd. Fans of the radio show can also catch Go Fact Yourself on LAist 89.3 on Saturdays at 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. and Sundays at 8 p.m.

Tickets and getting there

General admission is free with registration, though a free spot is not the same as a guaranteed seat. If you want to be sure of a chair, the $20 reserved option is the safer bet. Registration runs through the LAist event page linked below. The Crawford sits on South Raymond Avenue in Pasadena, an easy stop for anyone already planning an afternoon in the area, and the 4:00 PM start leaves the evening open for dinner nearby. Arrive a little early to grab concessions, which begin at 3:00 PM.
