Hi @neobodhi I am doing something similar to this on the page I use for the random trivia generator on my site Trivia Bliss. You can see the results here.
I’m using the Advanced Random Posts Widget plugin, which is very flexible and even works with custom post types as well. It allows you to use shortcode and include the random posts on any post/page/area you want.
