  Speaker 1: That wasn't convincing, to be honest, I'm ready, you're ready? Yeah?
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: She studied all night.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Heather was thinking she needed to.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Practice for this. Oh how do you practice?
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: I don't know. You gifted me the game I did.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: We've used all those questions though, so I don't think
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: they'll show up today.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Here's my only concern, Heather, right out the gate. I
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: do know that you were not good at guessing people's
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: ages because you you Yeah. Last night, supposedly separately, both
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Corey and Tony told Heather that I am twenty four
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: years old, and she bought it a blind and sinker.
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: It's not hard to do.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Would you have told that joke if she would have
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: thought you were fifty one?
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: No? Probably not. I am, in fact thirty seven. But
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: if you were to have a specialty in trivia, what
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: would you think that would be? Is there something that
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: you're particularly good at or or week in from our
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: four verticals, hunt, fish, cook, conservation.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Strengths, I'd say traditional.
• 1:58
  Speaker 6: Knowledge, okay, Jen edgenis culture.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Yep, yep? What about you? Bear Well, I'll be honest.
• 2:07
  Speaker 7: Every time I listen to the trivia and like keep
• 2:10
  Speaker 7: track of my score, I'm always like bottom of the pack,
• 2:13
  Speaker 7: Like I don't know where Brody is pulling out all
• 2:15
  Speaker 7: this random.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: It's your dad's fault.
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: Actually, Brody's almost seventy years old. That's a lot of experience.
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: That's where that comes from.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Heather guess sixty eight.
• 2:27
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I'll study that time.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: They did give me some hints.
• 2:32
  Speaker 6: I didn't study, but pollinators I should have studied pollinators.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Oh yep, butterflies.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: In all honestly, that will help you today. These are
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: these are here if you are a book reader, that
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: will help today. That's all the clues I'll give you. Okay, uh, Spencer,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: there are a lot of folks here in town. Do
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: you want to let the audience know why we have
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: all these hopes?
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: In times like once a year, I feel like the
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: whole crew gets together and we shoot guns and look
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: at new products and record some podcasts. There's gona be
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: some fresh voices on radio today. And then Clay Newcomb's
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: in the in the captain's chair. Just just general moseyan.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: That's what bar Newcomb says he does at home that
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: he every day he does some general moseying to which
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: is very annoying to his dad Clay. When Clay says, Barry,
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: what are you up to today?
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: It's it's it's just so nondescript. Yeah, liked for a
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: lot of activities. It's a perfect word to say to
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: your parents if you're just trying to be nondescript, like.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: The word aha. It just we're just general mosey. And
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: it does seem incredibly on brand. That Clay Sons says
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: something like that, So you've trained him, well, Uh, how
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: do you feel outside of the driver's seat, Spencer? Is
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: this like? Do you enjoy this or are you nervous?
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: I like playing and I wouldn't entrust someone in hosting
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: if I didn't think they would do a good job.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: And as as Yanni had said, having you pace him
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: for the last ten miles of his one hundred mile
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: race was what was your reason, Yanni? Because you just
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: trust that Mark will do like a good job. He'll study,
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: he'll try hard, right.
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: That's right, that's right. And Mark is new to running
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: ultra running, and I thought that would be a it
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: would be a good exposure experience for Mark too. He'd
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: get something out here he'd be appreciative of to be there.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: To your first point, he's just organized, he will try hard,
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: he'll like put in a real effort. So I think
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Mark will do a good job.
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: I'm excited, which he did do for me. If anybody's
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: wondering a great job.
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: Pacing, Okay, what would have been a bad job besides
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: just like walking.
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: Just like not being able to do to do enough talking,
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: not being able to keep up the positive positivity that's needed.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Would you guys talk about Well, to be clear real
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: quick before Yanni says anything, a key thing he mentioned
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: at the very beginning, he was a Mark, I don't
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: have much of me right now, so don't ask me questions,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: do not interview me, just talk at me.
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: So I told him. I was like, I got it.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Give me for an interview, buddy.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Mark was just getting podcast at you.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: That's what I did. What'd you podcast about? Knowing me?
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Basically gave him like five book reports.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I got to know about a lot of books,
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: some of Mark's new projects he's working on here at
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: meat Either.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: That was good.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: What else?
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Oh? I told you about my recent backpacking trip with
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the kids, some of our fun summer exploits, talked about
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: my Iowa Dear plans, and and then generally just just
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: told Yanni how proud I was of him and how
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: inspiring he was.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: And he wasn't he wasn't quitting. One of another buddy's
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: pulled up in his truck jamming some Wu Tang for
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: us to get get me fired up, which was working.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: And while Wu.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: Tang's blaring out of the truck, Mark still.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: That's true, I'm also excited because the person hosting get
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: some constructive feedback from the people playing to which Tony
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: is here, and you guys have such a good relationship
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: that I'm certain he will be upset with you at
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: some point.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I think that's fair. We have that kind of relationship.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I'm excited for that. And there's a little bit of
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: a withdrawal, I think for Tony because usually when we
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: have these big meetings here in town, they make us
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: room together, so usually me and Tony share share one
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: twin bed, and this time this time we got our
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: own separate rooms in king beds, so we have not
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: been as close as we usually are. I'm glad to
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: be back here with you, Tony.
• 6:39
  Speaker 9: I know it's been a nightmare at night because I've
• 6:41
  Speaker 9: had to just build a little Mark Kenyon out of
• 6:42
  Speaker 9: pillows and draw a little mustache on it. But it's
• 6:45
  Speaker 9: not the same snuggling level.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: It's just different.
• 6:48
  Speaker 8: I can tell you some websites for that time.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: It's not quite the same. Anyways, maybe it's time to
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: get to the show. I think it is, so I
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: think that's all the little bits and pieces we need
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: to do. Can we just can we just get to
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: the drop.
• 7:03
  Speaker 8: Phil, Oh, let's get Can we just get to it?
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Look, I need to know what I stand to win everything.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: You just tend to win.
• 7:15
  Speaker 10: Everything, Gamon suckers.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: Phil isn't used to someone asking him to play the drop.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: He's used to someone like demanding him. It's like the
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: difference between asking a dog to sit versus telling a
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: dog to sit. And Phil hadn't He doesn't normally feel threatened.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Then what's the point?
• 7:39
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Wait too, sorry about that?
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: Is it best to get if we don't know, is
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: it best to just leave this blank?
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Or get go ahead and guess? There's no You're not
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: gonna lose points for anything, so so give it a shot.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: And funny guesses are funny, but they don't get you
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: extra points.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and also feel free to like yack it up.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Talk with us makes noise, try to distract other people.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: That there's So when you competition coon hunt, you're you're
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: in this game that has a bunch of rules that's
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: very different than if you actually went coon hunt with somebody,
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: And so you might lose a competition coon hunt by
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: the rules, but everybody.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: Kind of knows who won. You know what I mean?
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: You kind of like I've been in many hunts where
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: I was like, everybody in this truck knows my dog
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: was the best, but you may beat me. That's the
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: way I feel about trivia, so good A good A
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: good answer is sometimes better than a right answer.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: I want to know what dog that was. Anyways, go ahead,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: we will be easing you. We're going to ease you
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: too into it, as we do every show, because the
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: first question is multiple choice. All right, so question number one,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: the topic is hunting. Let me see the question of
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: our all right, we go. In the two thousand and
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: one cult classic hunting themed film Escanaba in the Moonlight,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: what was the name of the character who's chevy took
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: a shit on the side of M thirty five? Is
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: it a Bobby Goolay from Grand Murray? Is it b
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: jim er Nagomine from Me Nominee? Is it c Remnar
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Florette from Marquette? Or is it d Reuben Shebaggan from Montanagan?
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: With any of that in English? It's all in Michigan
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: diese escanab in the Moonlight. It is a terrific film.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to ask you all about if you've
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: seen it, well, it's all in the eye of the beholder.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: My friend, we reviewed it for the Meat Eater Movie
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: Club on Media to Radio.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: I knew it talks about it at some point. So
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: we'll see if any of you guys are up on
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: this one. How many of you have seen this movie,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Razor Gain? Oh wow, Oh, there we go too, all right,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: how many of you have heard of Escanaba in the Moonlight.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Okay, this was the year you were born, right.
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: You know, a roundabout way of founding out about escanab
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: in the Moonlight, especially being from Michigan. I'm a young
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: hunting guide in Colorado at this point, and I've been
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: at it maybe three years, because I've guided these dudes
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: from Missouri for two years already. Like the third year
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: they come back, I kind of got like a big group.
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: It's like one guy, six or seven guys, and I
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: would just place them all across the countryside. And they
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: come back the third year and they are fired up.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: They're like, Yanni, we found this saw this movie from
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: the state that you're from.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: It is awesome.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: And like it might've been like their first sort of
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: like exposure to that you know, north northern Midwest culture.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and Yeah.
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: That's how I found out about escana the Moonlight.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: It's it's a cultural phenomena. I would say. I'll read
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: the question again for those of you listening in the
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: two thousand and one cult classic hunting themed film Escanaba
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: in the Moonlight, what was the name aim of the
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: character who's Jeffy took a chip on the side of
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: m thirty five? I'm thirty five, but we say it
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: thirty five.
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: Spencer. You feel pretty good about this one.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Think I've got this one.
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: My top takeaway after we watch this movie was that
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: I would prefer to watch it as like live theater,
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: to which I found out they did. It was wrote
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: I think it was written to be live theater, and
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: they performed often in Michigan.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Yes, at the Purple Rose. Have you Chelsea Michigan. I've
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: not seen it live.
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: Oh, we should make a little meat eater trip to
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: go and see that.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: It'd be terrific. Yeah. Well, I'll save it for after
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the quest.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: Okay, Phil has your Michigan accent.
• 11:38
  Speaker 11: I haven't done a lot of reps with it, but
• 11:40
  Speaker 11: I'll get cracking on it.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Okay, good, are we good? Do we have answers? Yeah?
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Everybody in all right, let's reveal the answer. Heather says, Hey,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Bobby Gulay from Grand Moray Bear says Bobby Gulay, Tony
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: says Remnar, Spencer says Jimmergomine. Maggie says Jimmer Nogomedy. He
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: says Jimerngomede. Yanni says Jimmer Negomedy, Brandt says Jimmer Nogamini.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: And the correct answer is Jimmer. Well, Yeah, you guys
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: did well, ah eskanalv In the Moonlight is a bizarre
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: film from my home state of Michigan. Takes place up
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: in the up where things are a little bit different.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: It is starring Jeff Daniels, the famed actor from Dumb
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: and Dummer and many other things. It tells the story
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: of the buckless uper. So this guy named Ruben Sodi
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: goes up to his family deer camp and has to
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: kind of face down the fears of becoming the oldest
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: member of his family too have never killed a buck,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: and so it's this tremendous story of a true Michigan
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: deer camp and hilarious family dynamics, the whole up culture
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: thing going on, and then some very bizarre off the
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: wall things come in maybe in the second half of
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: the of the movie and Mark Kenyon's favorite movie.
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: Right, it's up there as far as I mean, it's
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: you watch it on an annual on an annual basis to.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Watch that's probably PG thirteen.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: My kids watch border Line, Mark Borderline, Yes, sorry, you.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Could watch it, watch it with Bear, Yes, yes you could.
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: I'm going to add it to my list and make
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: my kids watch it this weekend.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Like to be clear, the first the first the first
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: third to half of it is very funny if you
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: get like northern Michigan, northern Wisconsin, northern Minnesota, like deer culture.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: The second half is like what happened here? M hm,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: So be warned. Okay, are we ready for the second question?
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: This is a little bit tougher.
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: Question two, Phil, We already watched that.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: All right. The topic is biology. What is the name
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: of the famous biologist and author who's most widely credited
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: with popularizing the term bio diversity? And is it okay
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: to give a clue? Because I was thinking maybe we
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: need to give a course.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: I mean, if the whole room would agree on it,
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: But I don't think Clay nukemb would No.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Because Randall said that maybe I should give a clue
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: on this one.
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: If Randall, the anti clue guy, says that you should,
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: then I think you should.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Will let fill the side fail clue or no clue.
• 14:25
  Speaker 11: Well, how many how many people feel confident in this
• 14:28
  Speaker 11: room they have the correct answer. I'd say that if
• 14:30
  Speaker 11: two people feel confident, then I don't think a clue
• 14:33
  Speaker 11: is warranted.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: All right, Well there's only one. Brand and Clay raised
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: their him. I thought Tony would have this one. Maybe
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Brand don't know it. I read what is the name
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: of the famous biologist and author who is most widely
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: credited with popularizing the term biodiversity. I'm going to give
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: a little clue. I only have half clue. If you
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: were to look at this dude's initials, E is one
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: of the initials.
• 15:00
  Speaker 10: I got it.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: I was like, it's like half the answer. Mark should
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: get a secret tip from Mark on whichever question I
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: needed for this.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: Good news for you, Clay's I don't think it helped
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: anyone else. Maggie already had that answer.
• 15:20
  Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, all right.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: Randall told me that my questions were tough, so I
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: want to try to make sure that we don't get
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: too low of a score here or there? How are
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: we doing questions or answers? In no one more time
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: than the question is what is the name of the
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: famous biologist and author who is most widely credited with
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: popularizing the term biodiversity. How many of you could give
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: me a definition of biodiversity off the top of your head.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: I'm ready.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: Clay can give you like a paragraph of an idea
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: of what that's I.
• 15:58
  Speaker 10: Don't think I could give a very succinct nition.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: The variety of flora and fauna in a given area.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: That's pretty good.
• 16:05
  Speaker 8: That's pretty decent.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: All right, we're good answers. Are you ready? Let's see
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: what you got. Heather thought it was Stephen Ranella there
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: went with Eldo Leopold, Tony went with Darwin, Spencer went
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: with Darlin. Maggie went with E. O. Wilson. Clay went
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: with EO. Wilson. Yanni said Darwin. Brent said Ernest, hemingway,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: I'm doing by Arnest. His name is Edward.
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: Hey, Hey, can I say something about E.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: Wilson?
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the correct answer is E. O. Wilson.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: So so he wrote a book called bio Felix, which
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Mark Mark would know this, but baophelia. It's an interesting
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: idea because we're the only species on earth that is
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: super interested in other species. So biophelia means love of
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: life as it's and it's actually what kind of makes
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: us human is our dramatic interest in all these other species.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: And I find it interesting because in the Book of Genesis,
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: the first the first job that man had was to
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: name and you know, catwar animals. So it's this core
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: fundamental definer of humanity is very biophilia.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: And so the theory of biophilia explores kind of that
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: the evolutionary history of why we have that deep connection
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: to nature and to wildlife. It's very interesting to consider
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: it and very interesting angle there with the Genesis story.
• 17:38
  Speaker 8: That makes a lot of sense.
• 17:40
  Speaker 10: Well, and EO.
• 17:41
  Speaker 12: Wilson is very well known for like studying ants, yes, which.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Is so cool, and that was his first gig.
• 17:47
  Speaker 12: He's written in like such such like small degree, like
• 17:53
  Speaker 12: oh man.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: He's gone, he's gone from the very tiny the very large.
• 17:56
  Speaker 12: Yes, And it's like it's not just loving like you know,
• 18:00
  Speaker 12: the animals we love to hunt are like the big places.
• 18:02
  Speaker 12: It's looking at like how these tiny little animals function
• 18:06
  Speaker 12: and it's just mind blowing.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let me tell you a little more.
• 18:10
  Speaker 10: Highly recommend reading EO. Wilson.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: According to the National Museum of Natural History, biodiversity is
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the extraordinary variety of life on Earth, from genes and
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: species to ecosystems and the valuable functions they perform. EO.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Wilson explained it as the very stuff of life. That said,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: according to many scientists and researchers, including EO. Wilson, we
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: are living amidst a biodiversity crisis, with bio biodiversity and
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: species prevalence plummeting across many parts of the country. EO.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Wilson has written about this extensively. In addition to being
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: an author, he was a professor at Harvard. He's widely
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: considered one of the greatest natural scientists of all time.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: He won a Pulitzer Prize several actually, I think, and
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: as you mentioned, he wrote the book Biophilia. He wrote
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: the book Diversity of Life and Half Earth, which explored
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: a very kind of moonshot solution to the biodiversity crisis
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: of somehow to some degree, setting aside half of Earth
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: to the conservation of nature. Pretty far out idea, probably
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: not really realistic, but it has led to a more
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: realistic goal which many are proposing, and many countries are
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: now pursuing now, which is the thirty by thirty initiative.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: So many countries are now trying to conserve thirty percent
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: of their land by twenty thirty, and that's thanks to EO. Wilson.
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: How close is the United States?
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Not very close?
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, roughly.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: I feel like it was like fourteen percent. That's that
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: could be wrong, but I feel like it was somewhere
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: in the teens. And there's a lot of questions around.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: A couple of years ago, there was a bunch of
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: work being done on this, and we started setting aside
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: something it was like the thirty by thirty at list
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: or something the Conservation at List, and the big project
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: being done about three years ago was trying to start
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: cataloging exactly how we would define these lands that were
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: technically conserved for the thirty by thirty initiative, and then
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: how far, what long we were And I feel like
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: I remember it was somewhere in the teens, But there's
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: a lot of question around is it actually land versus
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: marine environments, et cetera. Does it have to be public
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: land versus maybe like a private lands with a conservation easement.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: A lot of questions about question three were ready ready.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: Question three, the topic is fishing. What popular game fish
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: is known to the scientific community by a way of
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: its Latin name as Megalops atlanticus. What is wrong with you? Yeah,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: all right, what popular game fish?
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: So we're looking for the common name?
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Yes, what's the common name of the fish? Who is
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: the Latin name Megalops atlanticus? Megalops atlanticus. Is anyone confident
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: on this one? Tony, Yes, sir, Maybe.
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: I feel like I've got a reasonable guess.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: I don't want to give any clues. I want to
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: talk about it, but I don't want to definitely give
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: a clue. If anyway, it's just initials, no initial guesses
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: or no initial clues on this. It is a game fish. Yeah,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: you have to be you have to be specific. This
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: isn't something you can give like a generic So if fish, Yeah,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: if it was deer, you need to either meal deer
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: or white. That's correct, That's correct. You could there's clues
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: in the name.
• 21:43
  Speaker 9: This is such a This is such a mark Kenyon question.
• 21:48
  Speaker 9: This is just a window your soul buddy.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: This whole show is exactly that total.
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: I asked a question I believe in a previous episode
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: that had the same answer, did you interesting.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Atlantic? That's what's throwing me off. A couple more seconds,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: and I want you guys to have your answers in peace. Heather,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: throw throw something down there. There's a lot of fish.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of fish in your world. Pick a fish,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: any fish, Pick a fish. Oh, all right, answers, Are
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: we good? No? Oh, Maggie, still no, I know that's
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: not it. Come on ten nine.
• 22:37
  Speaker 10: Fine, fine, he's not the answer.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: All right, let's see your answers. Heather has nothing. Bears
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: says large mouth bass, Tony says King Sam and Spencer
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: atlantic tuna, Maggie, striped bass, clay, barracuda. Yanni says tarpin.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Brent says blue whale. The correct answer is tarping Megalops
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: atlantic is a Tarpan are one of the absolute coolest
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: fish in the world. I've recently become obsessed with them.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: I caught my first adult tarp in the spring. It's
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: about seventy five pounds, which is maybe four or five
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: feet long, caught on a fly. Absolutely blew my mind.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: They can grow up to eight feet long, they can
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: weigh well over two hundred pounds. They can live fifty sixty,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: seventy years or older. They are, by far, I think,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: pretty widely accepted as the most exciting fish to chase
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: on a fly as far as they feed on the flats,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: so they feed in shallow water. They'll chase a fly
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: just like a bone fish or you know, a big
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: brown trout or something. But then imagine a six foot
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: long fish that weighs one hundred and fifty pounds, exploding
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: out of the air and jumping three, four or five
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: feet in the air. And these fights with these fish
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: can last hours. I only had to fight my fish
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: for something like twenty five minutes, but I know people
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: who have had a fish on the line for two hours,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: four hours, twelve hours. It is mind blowing. I've never
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: experienced anything like it. I remember when that fish came tight,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: when I when I saw this fish coming at the fly.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: A strip set the only way I can describe that feeling.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: And I think this is something a lot of people
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: can relate to. It's like if you were holding a
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: very large dog on a leash and it sees a
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: squirrel and that moment when the dog you're not expecting it,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: but that dog explodes and chasing that squirrel and you're
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: holding the leash on the other side, and all of
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: a sudden, that was what you felt, this explosion at
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: the end of the line. Is that dog tries to
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: chase the squirrel. That's kind of what that one second
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: moment felt like when it came tight and uh and
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: then from there it was just insane.
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: So the dragons or all of these questions designed so
• 24:45
  Speaker 9: you can just brag to the room.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: All of these questions are designed so I can talk
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: about stuff. I like, that was a great storyline.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: You did a great job to transfer in the passion
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: and energy that. But change this, change this story to
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: a all going after a bear.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Everyone knows what that feels like.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: Yes, Like every part of your story just needs to
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: be as flashy as possible.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: I get that flashy me.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: I knew that a squirrel dog would be a little
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: bitty dog. Yeah that lation it feel like you had to.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Brim on in my mind, I was imagining like a
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Great Dane or Rottweiler, like in a city park, right, yeah, yeah,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: because because.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: This doesn't know what he's what he's talking about.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Because the thing is like with every other kind of fishing. Usually,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: when you feel the take of a fish, there's usually
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: like a bend in the rod. Right, Your rod's like this,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: and you feel like the tunk tunk, and you set
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: the hook or something like that. But in this case,
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: there was no rod or real intermediary. The rod's pointing
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: straight out the fish, and the line is connected straight
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: from my hand to the fish, so there's there was
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: nothing else in the way. It was simply my hand
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: on the line and this seventy five pound fish on
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: the other straight connection. What's he doing is coffee? I'm
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: trying to kill myself. All right, we got some you
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: don't like Atlanta sharping, We can move to question number four.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: That's all right, friend, Question number four, Britt just put
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: fake poison in this coffee for those.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Who are.
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: The story about it.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Cooking, cooking. Question number four, what's the name of the
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: popular meat pie like dish that's uniquely popular in both
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: the up of Michigan and Butte Montana. Oh my gosh,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: what is the name of the popular meat pie like
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: dish that is uniquely popular in both Michigan's upper peninsula
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: in Butte, Montana.
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: Who makes them better? Yanni, Michigan or Montana.
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: I've had one in Montana.
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: Have you, Spencer, I've had one in Butte. I have
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: not had one in Michigan, though.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: They're dang good in Michigan.
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: But claims to have like more Irish, like a higher
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: density of Irish people than Ireland. Something like that. They
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: make some outlandish claims about interesting how Irish they are.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: It's a lot of miners come over to the state.
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, oh, that's going to be in the flavor text.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: I bet, hmmm, just might be.
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: Now are there are there two common names for this?
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: I mean there could be, like the plural and the singular.
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: It would have to satisfy that it's the popular dish
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: in Michigan and Butte, to which I think there's only
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: one answer.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: There is only one answer, but I would accept the
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: singular or plural answer. Yeah you have it, don't you? Yeah? Yeah?
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: How are we? Are we good? I don't think you
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: have I have to do something. Yeah, no more blanks, Heather,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: you got to put a food dish to change it?
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: When win the game against Clay that Clay plays where
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: it's like not actually going for score.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: That's what you're coming, just trying to make it.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: Come on, come on, you just like give us show us.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, not off the cup.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Oh that's probably you were the one who inspired this
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: very funny, uh video idea, Brent calling folks up in
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: the middle of the night when they're trying to fall asleep.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: And I wasn't in.
• 28:18
  Speaker 6: It's I'm the producer, behind the scenes, the talent.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Heather, you in.
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: I don't know how to spell it, but I'm guessing
• 28:30
  Speaker 6: it's wrong. But uh, it's a meat pie dish from
• 28:34
  Speaker 6: the Middle East, My mom's Middle Eastern and it's called
• 28:37
  Speaker 6: three I think.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Is how you say? It's so good? That's my favor.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: It's meat is it? Yes, Yes, it's time. Let's see
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: your answers. Heather said, Bear said, Shepherd's Pie, Tony Pasty,
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Spencer Pasty, Maggie Pasty, clay Min's meat pie, Yanni pass
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: the Brent pro ge. The correct answer is pasty. A
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: pasty is a No, it's a savory. It's a savory
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: handheld meat pie like dish. Imagine like a grown up
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: hot pocket. According yeah, pasty. According to the Upper Peninsula
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Travel and Recreation Association past These were the original fast
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: food of copper miners and lumberjacks, brought here from the
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: mining region of Cornwall, England UP, which is Upper Peninsula UP.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Wives would fill the rolled out dough with leftover beef, potato, onion,
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: and rudebega, fold the pastry in half, seal the edges,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: and bake. Legend says the miners would take these golden
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: pastries into the mines and reheat them on a shovel
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: over their lantern candles. Pretty cool. I like that. That
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: was really cool. Mark.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: We recently had a similar question about a similar product
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: called a kolachi oh that you can find in Texas.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: You can find so how many of you have had
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: a pasty? You three of you? They're good. They're all
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: over the up. Do they have them up in like
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: northern Wisconsin at all? I haven't seen them. I don't
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: go to northern Wisconsin fair enough I do. I've never
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: seen one. They're worth a try for anyone who's not
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: had them. Very tasty. You can get kind of different
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: versions of them. Are they a deer camp staple or not?
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: Not?
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: From my dear camp. But we're below the bridge, so
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: maybe up in the up So there's the you know,
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: the Upper Peninsula of Michigan is separated from the Lower
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: Peninsula by the Mackinaw Bridge, which is this very very
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: long bridge across the Great Lakes there, and the Upers
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: would like to say that people like me are trolls
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: because we live under the bridge. Yeah, and so we
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: technically can't claim the pasty. That's a up thing. But
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: when I'm here in Montana, I can claim it. How
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: do they say it? How do they say that the
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: pasty or pasties past and they like nasty? Well, I
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: don't know. They're funny. They've got their up accent, but
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: I guess to be a pasty good if you want
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: a pasty.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: Bill's been working on his accent over there. Sorry, he
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: might even debut it on this episode. Said, okay, let's
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: move along. Question number five. The topic is public lands.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: What public land agency is responsible for managing our nations?
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Fifty eight point five million acres of inventoried roadless areas?
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: What public land agency is responsible for managing our nations?
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Fifty eight zero point five million acres of inventoried roadless areas? Yanni,
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: you looked surprisingly slow on that one. I thought you
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: were going to be right away.
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: I just wanted to make sure I was understand in
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: a question correctly. I'm pretty confident my answer.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I think you'll get it. Anybody else feeling
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: very confident, Maggie was quick. Maggie being involved in the website,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: I think has a strong chance of this because I
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: would think that we've written about this.
• 32:23
  Speaker 10: Now I'm questioning myself, really trick, Maggie.
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: Did you write a little editorial that prefaced the three
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: UH poaching articles? Was that you that decided to put
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: in that little editorial up top?
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: Must not be in the email?
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: It came out and Jordan, that was good. I like that, Yeah,
• 32:52
  Speaker 5: that was good.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Appreciated that this is This is an agency that manages
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: some segment of our public lands, and they are responsible
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: for inventoried roadless areas. That is the key. Who has answers?
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: I have a wrong one. I'll read the question one
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: more time and then we're going to wrap it up.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: What public land agency is responsible for managing our nation's
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: fifty eight point five million acres of inventoried roadless areas.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Let's get those answers in here. Heather. All right, Heather
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: says the USDA, which is the Department of Agriculture, which
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: does manage the US Forest Service. Bear says BLM, Bureau
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: of Land Management, Tony says, National Forest Service, Spencer, National Forest,
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Maggie National Forest, Clay, US Forests, Yanna, US Forest, Brent,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: US Forest. The correct answer is the US Forest Service.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: I think that maybe we should give to Heather because
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: it does fall underneath the USDA, so I would be
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: willing to give you that one. The correct answer is
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: the US Forest Service. In two thousand and one, the
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: US Force Service announced the Roadless Rule, which protected the
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: US Forest services remaining fifty eight point five million acres
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: of roadless lands in a nearly undeveloped state. According to
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Trout Unlimited, the Roadless Rule was originally created in response
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: to the growing backlog of costs associated with maintaining the
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: more than three hundred and eighty six thousand miles of
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: roads spanning the National Forest System nearly four hundred thousand
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: miles of roads across the US Forest System. For more
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: than twenty years, the Roadless Rule has conserved backcountry, public
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: lands and waters while providing flexibility for the first Forest
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Service to steward these high value landscapes through active management
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: that improves forest health and allows for natural resource development.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: These multiple use areas sustained native trouton sand and support
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: wildlife with unfragmented corridors, and offer irreplaceable backcountry hunting and
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: angling experiences. But earlier this summer, Secretary of Agriculture Brook
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: Rowlands announce her department's intentions to rescind the Roadless Rule
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: and roll back those protections for our fifty eight point
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: five million acres of our last remaining roadless areas in
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: the nation. If you want to learn more about that
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: and the implications for hunters and anglers and wildlife, we
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: just dropped today an episode of the Wired Hunt podcast
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: on this very topic with the CEO and president of
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Trout Unlimited. His name is Chris Wood, and he worked
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: at the US Forest Service in two thousand and one
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: in the late nineties and actually was very deeply involved
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: in writing the Roadless Rule and coming up with this
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: whole thing. So it's a very interesting conversation about how
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: this all came to be, why it came to be,
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: what it does for wildlife and hunters and anglers, and
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: what it would mean, if this actually gets.
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: Removed, Heather, you got a bunch of country in your
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: neck of the woods right protected by this rule.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: It's a big deal. In with tongus.
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: How's this going to affect you?
• 36:05
  Speaker 12: Rule?
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: You like the rollless rule?
• 36:08
  Speaker 10: We got a.
• 36:11
  Speaker 6: Well, I have a lot of opinions about this whole topic,
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: more than more time we want to spend here talking
• 36:16
  Speaker 6: about it. But yeah, we got to protect our our land.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, so yeah, check it out two thousand and one.
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: It's in into infancy. I feel like most big conservation
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: meaningful bills and x are fifty one hundred years old. Yep,
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: I didn't know that was so modern.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: Yep, twenty twenty four years old. Just like, just like
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: I never thought about that. All right, Films, I believe
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: it's time for a scoreboard update. Do you have one
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: of those forma?
• 36:46
  Speaker 11: It is indeed in last place. Spent too much time mosying.
• 36:49
  Speaker 11: I suppose Baron Newcomb has zero points, come up next
• 36:53
  Speaker 11: to Heather Duville with one. Tony Peterson and Brent Reeves
• 36:57
  Speaker 11: have two points. Spencer new Hearth and Clay Nucom have
• 37:00
  Speaker 11: three and tied up in first place. A Giannis putell
• 37:03
  Speaker 11: Us and Maggie Ubblow with four points.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, Maggie, could be your day, Megs. So yesterday we
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: were walking out of the hotel and Tony says to me, man,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: nobody understands the amount of micro stress that a game
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: of trivia costs you, especially especially if you start badly. Tony,
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: how much micro stress are you experiencing right now?
• 37:25
  Speaker 9: He talked about tarpin this morning, and I was like,
• 37:27
  Speaker 9: there's no way Kenyan's going to be on the nose.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: For sure, you would jump on the first thing.
• 37:33
  Speaker 9: That popped in my head. I was like, this is
• 37:35
  Speaker 9: tarp and I'm like, there's no way he's going to
• 37:37
  Speaker 9: do that. So I outthought myself on that one.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Good. Yeah, I was. I was trying to kind of
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: throw a bone to folks, like I've been talking right, No,
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: I know? Yeah, all right, Well, hey, there's time question
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: number six. Here's what you gotta get Tony. The topic
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: is hunting. What was the name of the deer call
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: introduced in the early two thousands that attempted to simulate
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: the sound of deer feeding on hard masts to calm
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: other nearby wildlife. What was the name? Look, he did
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: know it? Yeah, what was the name of the deer
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: call from the early two thousands that simulates the sound
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: of feeding deer supposed to calm wildlife around you. Did
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: you own one of these? I never owned one of these,
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: but we like to joke about it a lot, right.
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like the banjo minow of white tail, Yes.
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: Which I did fish on the old banjo.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah did too.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we used to occasionally. The way we hunted on
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: public land when I was growing up, you would the
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: limiting factor was wide oakacres, and so you'd be hunting
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: a tree that was dropping wide oakakers and there might
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: not be a tree anywhere near. It'd be like because
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: there was a lot of cutover pine plantations with these
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: riparian zones that had oaks, and so you could carry
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: carry some acrons in your pocket and drop them out
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: of the tree.
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: Interesting, I sunk.
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: On the ground. You hear him falling.
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: I just heard another a guy some of these on
• 39:15
  Speaker 5: the Southern Outdoors and podcast and he was talking about
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: doing that, going up the tree with a couple of
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: pockets fulling every now and then drop the Oh yeah, and.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: They're like so A funny story from Bill Winki, one
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: of his little tips for when you are like in
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: a bedding area, hunting deep in there and it's like
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: late morning and for some reason you want to get out.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: You don't want to stay in there all morning, which
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: in this case, like if I was gonna hunt a
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: betting are, I'd be there all day. But he said,
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: if you want to get out, he would. He would
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: collect acorns on the ground before it went up, and
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: he'd carry a slingshot with him. And so when it
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: was like eleven o'clock and he wanted to get out there,
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: if he saw deer bedded somewhere nearby, he would shoot
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: them with acorns with a slingshot until they'd run off,
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: and then he'd walk out. Wow.
• 39:57
  Speaker 9: So the category that this all is in. I hunted
• 40:01
  Speaker 9: down in Texas one time and one of the guides
• 40:04
  Speaker 9: was telling me about an electronic call that you could
• 40:08
  Speaker 9: buy that you could hit a button and it sounded
• 40:09
  Speaker 9: like a feeder going off.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: Oh he said.
• 40:13
  Speaker 9: He said, they drop guys off and pick him up.
• 40:16
  Speaker 9: At the end of a three four hours sitting, their
• 40:18
  Speaker 9: batteries would be dead because those dudents are just letting
• 40:21
  Speaker 9: their It's good.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Oh man, Okay, do we have is everybody good, yep,
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: all right, let's see the answers please, Heather said, Randal
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: hands bear acorn muncher. Acorn muncher pro.
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: That's the kind of answer that gets you the w Tony.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Acorn crunch or Spencer acorn crunch er. Maggie acorn muncher,
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: Janna said, the muncher said, the browse show or the
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: let's eat bleep great ideas. The correct answer is acorn
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: cruncher or cruncher. It's either cruncher or it's popularly known
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: as the acorn cruncher, but technically it was just called
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: the cruncher, So either one is okay by me.
• 41:13
  Speaker 10: These was so close for pulling an answer out of
• 41:15
  Speaker 10: my ass.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm giving you. Give me brownie points for that.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: According to a two thousand and nine press release on
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: the Outdoor Wire, the cruncher is a compoc compact handheld
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: call that simulates the sound of deer feeding on acorns.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: This natural sound relaxes deer in the immediate vicinity of
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: your stand. It can also call in other deer that
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: think there's food available. It calms spook deer, stimulates deer
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: to feed, and stops deer in a relaxed manner. Just
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: like imitating a deer's grunt or recreating the rattling of antlers,
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: the sound of a white tail feeding on acorns can
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: cause a positive reaction, so they say. But you know,
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: as we were talking earlier, it's widely panned. It's a joke.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: A lot of people kind of look at it as
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: as being representative of like all the choshki gizmos that
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: are marketed to hunters.
• 42:04
  Speaker 4: No one does like a white tail hunter. Yes, I
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: also love the ground grunter that would be in that category, which,
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: if you're not familiar, you're in a tree stand twenty
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: feet in the air. The ground grunter is a long
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: plastic tube that runs to the base of the ground
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: that you blow into a grunt call in your tree stand,
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: and that sound travels all the way down and it
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: comes out at what would be eye level for a deer,
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: because all the deer are onto you if they hear
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: a grunt coming from twenty feet in the air. So
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: that's why you want your ground grunter to produce that
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: more realistic note.
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: After that failed, I called at the urination station.
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: Have you ever have you seen the butt clicker? It's
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: so it's the basically supposedly, there's a call that a
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: buck will make where it makes an individual note of
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: a grunt and clicks like there's.
• 43:00
  Speaker 9: Like, imagine it's a real deal.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: There's a famous story in the nukeom Lore of the
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: clicking bug that my dad had come in that he
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: missed and he said it was clicking. It says, make
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: it individual grunts. But there's a call that's on a
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: wheel that has a little you like roll it like
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: the wheel of fortune.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: Like that's cool. I love hunting in a place where
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: you can see mature bucks enough to actually hear these
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: types of you know, vocalizations like you just don't ever
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: hear that in Michigan. But I've been in island and
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: heard so many cool things. Kanas, very fun. Yeah, all right.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: Question number seven the topic is public lands. What is
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: the largest national wildlife refuge in the United States? Very simple?
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: What is the largest national wildlife refuge in the United
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: States of America. It's a piece of public land. There's
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: a bunch of critters out there. The first national wildlife
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: refuge technically is created by Theodore Roosevelt. Back in the
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: early nineteen hundreds, there was an island full of a bunch
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: of birds down in Florida, and the feather hunters, the
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: folks that were killing birds to make pretty hats for
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: ladies in the day, were killing all the birds. And
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: mister Teddy Roosevelt was not a fan of that. So
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: he got a hold of his folks in the Department
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: of the Interior and say, hey, is there anything keeping
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: me away from declaring this is some kind of like
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: refuge for wildlife? And his staff went looked around and
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: they said, well, I don't think there is anything keeping
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: you from doing it. Teddy replied, well, then I so
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: declare it. And that's how he created I believe that
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: was Pelican Island. I think was the first one, and
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: many many more have come since I declare. Yeah, I
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: so declare it. Mister Teddy Roosevelt.
• 44:58
  Speaker 5: That's a lot of power. But our current president know
• 45:01
  Speaker 5: about that kind of power that you can yield when
• 45:04
  Speaker 5: you're in the position he might be he might be
• 45:06
  Speaker 5: interested in dropping a few.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, no comment. They have the Antiquities Act today
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: that Teddy Roosevelt uses well to create our national monuments.
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: I don't think that folks in power these days like
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: our national monuments as much as mister Roosevelt did.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: Anyone still thinking?
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: How are you feeling about this one? Maggie, Oh not
• 45:38
  Speaker 5: too confident. I like it.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Do we have answers in? Everybody have an answer? All right?
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: Can we see those answers please? Heather?
• 45:46
  Speaker 5: Oh, you got what?
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: I what I the Tonguest National Forest, Bear says the
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: Arctic Wildlife Refuge. Tony said the Tonguest, which is the
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: National Forest. Spencer says the Coutine. Maggie says, the Arctic
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: place is the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Giannis says the
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Brand says the Oka Pinocchi. And
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: the correct answer is Clay Newcomb got it right, the
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. So Janni, Yanni got it? And
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: war what.
• 46:23
  Speaker 5: About?
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: Yes that you were excited about it. This is a
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: This is a picture. This is an image that I
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: saw on Instagram of Mark.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the Arctic Mark.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: I actually didn't really realize it wasn't nice.
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, thinking about your recent.
• 46:39
  Speaker 12: I thought you were spending a lot of time right
• 46:41
  Speaker 12: in your answer the Arctic.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is approximately nineteen point six
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: million acres. It's our second largest piece of public land.
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: The largest is the U. N p r A, which
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: is the Western Arctic just over on the western side
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: of Alaska. Uh, this is the very far northeast of Alaska.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: And as Clay said, me and Kale just had a
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: trip up there a couple of weeks ago.
• 47:06
  Speaker 10: That's how I knew it was going to be the art.
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it was a phenomenal experience. We talked about
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: it at length in an episode of Media to Radio
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: Live a couple of weeks ago, and an episode of
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: I Guess it was on Kale's pod. We did it,
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: We did an episode of Kale's podcast. But an incredibly
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: wild place. This encompasses a portion of the Brooks Range,
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: which is the northernmost extension of the Rocky Mountains. On
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: the southern side of the Brooks Range, you've got boreal
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: forest and incredible, you know, kind of inland mountain landscapes.
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: On the north slope of the Brooks Range, you had
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: the coastal plain, which is like an Arctic grassland. It's
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: sort of the equivalent of the African savannah, but our
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: North American version, teeming with hundreds of thousands of caribou, muscocks.
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: You know at certain times of the year there are
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: polar bears or grizzly bears, wolves, all sorts of craters. Uh,
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: life changing experience for me and Cal to get to
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: see that place very very worth learning about or maybe
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: someday seeing. There's amazing caribou hunting, great river floats, terrific climbing, hiking, backpacking.
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: If you can ever find a way to get there,
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: highly recommend it. All right, Teddy'd be proud, Yes, yes
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: he would. He's a big fan. All right. Question number eight,
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: The topic is fishing. What is the name of the
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: popular fly casting technique to increase the distance of your
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: cast by utilizing two distinct polls of your fly Lineberry,
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: you got this bearing, You're an inspiring fly angler. Yanni
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: was a fly gud. He's got it, Tony's got it.
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: Spencer is a spencer. Spencer's a great guy because he
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: got into fly fishing when he moved to Montana and
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: then very conveniently kind it got out of it enough
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: because he got into it so much that he bought
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: a set of rod tubes. So these are your fly
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: rod holders that go on top of your truck he
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: got those few years ago, and then he, I guess,
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: got to the point where he wasn't using them enough
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: and was also getting a rooftop tent. So he mentions
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: to make oh ya, I'm trying to get rid of
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: my rod tubes. Right at that time, I was thinking
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: to myself, I need a good set of rod tubes
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: at the top of my truck. So I got a
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: sweet deal on some fly rod holders on top of
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: my truck for mister Spencer Newhart.
• 49:29
  Speaker 4: It was the rooftops had to the rod holders, one
• 49:31
  Speaker 4: had to go, and I picked the rooftop.
• 49:33
  Speaker 5: I taught this technique to Spenser questions.
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: Did he listen? I'm gonna read one more time. What's
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: the name of the popular fly casting technique to increase
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: the distance of your cast by utilizing two distinct pulls.
• 49:49
  Speaker 10: You know you're talking about those micro stresses.
• 49:51
  Speaker 8: Yeah? Are you there enough?
• 49:52
  Speaker 10: This is the point where my brain shuts down in trivia.
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: You know this, I know this.
• 49:57
  Speaker 10: I do this Like every time.
• 49:59
  Speaker 8: I say it, you're gonna be like, no.
• 50:01
  Speaker 10: Don't say it yet.
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: God, there's like a very huge clue in the in
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: the in the you know, I didn't know that I
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: knew how to do this until I went fishing with
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: Corey and then he commented on it. So and you're
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: just kind of doing it naturally. Yeah, yeah, yeah, So
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: this is something that really helps, Like when you're a
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: trout angler, it's not you don't use it as much
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: when you're fishing small creeks or anything like that, but
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: if you get into big water, or especially if you
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: start fishing lakes or saltwater situations, you really need distance.
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: You need to be able to get that cast out
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: there fast, and this is a way to kind of
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: utilize the mechanics of your rod and momentum with your
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: line to get that to really shoot out there. There's
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: a lot of similarities between bow hunting and fly fishing,
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: especially saltwater bow on it or saltwater fly fishing. Yeah,
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of cross over there, and so with
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: this technique, you're like, you're shooting your line at a fish.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: Pretty cool. Do we have everybody in? Do you have
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: this right? Clay?
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: I hate this?
• 51:06
  Speaker 10: I hate this game. Why do I keep playing this game?
• 51:09
  Speaker 5: Maggie?
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: This is in your wheelhouse?
• 51:11
  Speaker 10: This is I know this answer, but I don't have it.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: Let's see your answers. Heather has nothing. Bear says the
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: double hall, Tony says double hall, Spencer says double hall,
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: Maggie says, Clay says back cast, Yanni says double hall,
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: and Brent says double hall. The room did pretty good.
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: The correct answer is double hall. According to John jurasecond
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: Hatch Magazine, the double hall is an advanced casting technique
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: that increases the speed of the line during the cast.
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: To achieve this, the line hand literally pulls or hauls
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: on the fly line at select points in the casting stroke,
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: once during the back cast and once more during the forecast.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: Halls themselves directly increase the speed of the line. This
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: also causes the rod to bend more deeply, and that
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: deeper bend stores more energy in the rod, and when
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: the road, when the rod unloads this energy, it transfers
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: it to the line and gives you all that speed.
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: So the double hall. On the back cast, you pull
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: your line with this left hand, you're pulling back line,
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: and then as you forwardcast, it's like back and another
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: haul and it shoots that line out just like you're
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: shooting a bow with an arrow. It really does help.
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: It's simple, it's kind of a weird thing to try
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: to figure out at first when somebody explains it to you,
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: but it's like riding a bike when you kind of
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: just get the rhythm in your head. It just becomes
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: very natural and then you always do it. But it
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: really helps. So if you are getting into fly fishing,
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: check out The Double Hall. Orbis has a lot of
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: really good casting videos. I'd recommend Orvis's YouTube channel for
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: learning some basic fly fishing stuff. The Double Hall definitely
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: worth knowing. Any questions otherwise, I've got a few more
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: for you. You've answered everything, Phil, can we get another scoreboard update?
• 52:56
  Speaker 8: Yes, Brent, did you get the Double Hall?
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: Yep?
• 52:58
  Speaker 8: Okay, I thought so.
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: Here Heather, we gotta go to ten now.
• 53:06
  Speaker 11: In last place is Heather do Veil with one point.
• 53:08
  Speaker 11: Baron Newcomb got himself a couple of points. He's got
• 53:10
  Speaker 11: two now after that is Brent Reeves with three. Then Spencer,
• 53:15
  Speaker 11: Maggie and Clay are all tied up with five points,
• 53:18
  Speaker 11: and Giannis Butellis is now has has now pulled ahead.
• 53:21
  Speaker 11: He has six points and is in first place.
• 53:23
  Speaker 12: If I didn't have such a brain on that last, yeah,
• 53:29
  Speaker 12: go Maggie.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: All right, these last. I think that we've got one
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: that a lot of folks would get. One is gonna
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: be a little bit tougher. Question number nine, the topic
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: is natural history. What state in the lower forty eight
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: has the most glaciers? What state in the lower forty
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: eight has the most glaciers? It is so much fun
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: to sit in this seat and not have the micro
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: stress that Tony talks about. I could really get used
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: to the spencer. I'm happy to do this anytime. Okay,
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: start coming to town more. Yeah, count me in.
• 54:11
  Speaker 5: I feel like Clan Brent or feeling like they need
• 54:15
  Speaker 5: to host one of these episodes.
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: Oh, I cannot wait. You're welcome to you. Anyone who
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: wants to host. Mark's got to be here though. Yeah,
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: Revenge Giving? Which catfish I've in trouble. How many of
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: you have ever touched a glacier? Play? Yeah, in the
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: lower forty eight, Clay, No, it's harder to come by,
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: hard to get close to him, at least in the
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: lower forty Lay sure.
• 54:50
  Speaker 3: I think me and you probably had. What I saw
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: of your experience with the glacier was I think like mine,
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: it was like seeing a living animal. Yeah, it struck
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: me like that. I mean, when you see geographic features,
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: there's a certain response that you have that's that's really
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: majestic and awesome, you know. Like, but when I saw
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: a glacier, and I don't want to overexaggerate, but it
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: was just the truth. It was it almost like took.
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: My breath away. Yeah, true, large.
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: It sounds dramatic like whatever, but in the context of
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: being in that kind of wilderness, in that place, being
• 55:29
  Speaker 3: where I'm from, I mean, it was just kind of
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: like it was wow. And then and we were a
• 55:35
  Speaker 3: mile from it, and it it's huge, and we just
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: keep going towards it, going towards it, going towards it.
• 55:42
  Speaker 3: And what looks like a fifty foot tall glacier is
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: like a two I don't know how tall. I still
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: can't tell you how tall it was. And we were
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: right underneath it. I don't know if it was five
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: hundred feet or three hundred feet. Just like the scale
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: was just like super hard to understand.
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was pretty spectacular.
• 56:00
  Speaker 4: Dog on a leash who sponsor black Bear?
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, something like that. Does everybody have a have an answer? Yeah?
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: All right, well let's just get right to it. Heather says,
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: nothing bear says Montana, Tony says Montana, Spencer Montana, Maggie Montana,
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: Clay Montana, Yanni, Colorado, Brent, Idaho.
• 56:22
  Speaker 8: Wow, guys, nobody got the right.
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: The correct answer is Washington Alaska. Alaska has the most
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: glaciers in North America. Alaska's got around one hundred thousand glaciers,
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: but in the lower forty eight, Washington State is the winner.
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: They've got around three thousand of them. And Washington's also
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: home to the most glaciated single peak, which is Mount Rainier.
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: Mount Rainier has twenty five or twenty six glaciers on
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: that one single peak. Terrific place. Washington State's got a
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: lot of really cool places to go and see these glaciers.
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: According to the Washington Department of Natural Resources, glaciers form
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: in areas where snow accumulation persists through time, allowing the
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: snow to pile up and compact into ice. It typically
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: takes hundreds of years for a glacier to fully form.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: Glaciers behave like rivers of ice, moving, growing and shrinking
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: over time. They are bounded by the valleys that they
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: reside in, but they flow under the force of gravity,
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: and they also advance or retreat depending upon the climate conditions.
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: They're very cool to see in person. Like you said,
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: Clay got to get up in close and personal with
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: the Mendenhall Glacier in southeast Alaska, and yeah, crazy crazy
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: to see that in real life. It felt like I
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: was stepping into like some natural history documentary and it
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: was really cool. You can see how these glaciers are
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: changing right now. There was a trail that I hiked,
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: and all along this trail there were year markers that
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: showed where the glacier used to be, and you could
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: walk decade by decade and see how the glacier had changed.
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: And just from nineteen ninety six to now, so I
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: mean just a little bit less than twenty years, that
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: glacier had receded somewhere around a mile in a move.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: So it used to be I was standing at the
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: nineteen ninety six mile marker and the glacier would have
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: be right over my head, and then I'm staring at
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: a mile away, still huge, but different. So it was
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: very eye opening to see see that in real life. Yeah, yeah,
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: quite the spectacle.
• 58:30
  Speaker 4: Grasshopper Glacier southeast of US. I'm going to hike to you.
• 58:33
  Speaker 4: Someday there's grasshoppers frozen into the glacier and they're like,
• 58:38
  Speaker 4: you can't preserve them. People go up and try to
• 58:40
  Speaker 4: pick them out, but they basically just melt as soon
• 58:43
  Speaker 4: as they leave the glacier.
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: Wow, cool stuff, cool stuff, all right. That was question
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: number nine. So I believe we should have another scoreboard
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: update and a correct answer review.
• 58:55
  Speaker 11: Well, just for the scoreboard update really quick before the
• 58:58
  Speaker 11: review mark it was a zero per centers. We're right
• 59:00
  Speaker 11: back where we were, but giannis Is is still ahead by
• 59:03
  Speaker 11: one point. So it just comes down to this last question.
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: But it is I mean, there's a strong competition still
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: because Spencer, Maggie and Clay all still Yeah, you get it.
• 59:14
  Speaker 2: You got this last ques EO.
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: Wilson behind Eldo Leopold was your first guest, I think, Brent,
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: that was a decent guest. That was a good guest
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: until I threw in the initials. Yeah. Sorry, all right,
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: So the correct answer review is that something you do, Faillership,
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: I'd review it me, all right. The correct answer to
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: question number one was b Jim or nagomine from monominee.
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: Question number two, the answer was e O. Wilson. Three
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: was Tarpin, four was Pasties, five was the US Forest Service.
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: Six was the Acorn cruncher also would accept Cruncher. Seven
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: was the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Eight was the Double Hall.
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: Nine was Washington State. And that leaves us with question
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: number ten. For all the marbles, Yanni, are you ready
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: for this one? All right? You? You could, you could
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: get this one. Maybe you could win it. Question number ten,
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: The topic is conservation. Name wrong one film vertical? Yeah?
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: Name the author who wrote these famous words. We simply
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: need that. We simply need that wild country available to us,
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: even if we'd never do more than drive to its
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: edge and look in for it can be a means
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: of reassuring ourselves of our sanity as creatures, a part
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: of the geography of hope. Name the famous author who
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: wrote these famous words.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 4: I'm well, I mean, I bet this quote is in
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 4: his book, right, mhmm.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: Name the author who wrote these famous words. He also
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: has written other books? Famous author, We simply need that
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: wild country?
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 5: Has he published more than one book?
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: Many?
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: Does he work here?
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: Maybe I'm giving to any clues? Yeah you did, Yeah
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: you did.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 5: You got a good guess.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: We simply need that wild country available to us, even
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: if we never do more than drive to its edge
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: and look in. Or it can be a means of
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: reassuring ourselves of our sanity as creatures. A part of
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: the geography of Hope. What a hell of a good.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: Line brushed up on that wild country before I came?
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: What helped you? The geography of hope? Isn't that a
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: great way to refer to this? Isn't that great?
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 9: Should have just scanned Kenyon's diary one.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: You would have won the damn thing if you did that.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: Come on, Tony. Unbelievable. I know, I know, unbelievable. I know.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: Does anyone feel confident? Well?
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 10: I did until he said he's published many books?
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: Well, he's published more than one.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: What kind of books?
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: Maybe? E books? Maybe not.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 10: I'm going back to it.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 7: I thought I had a decent answer until I saw
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 7: your reaction to Heather's question.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: Does he work at the company?
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 5: Let's go, let's go.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: I can't tell you the answer that.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 3: I don't think I got it.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: If it's the person I'm thinking of, I can here.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: All right, we probably need to wrap it up, though, folks. Ready,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: can we see some answers. Please, Oh, Heather thought it
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: was Steve Vanella. Bear thought Steve Ronella. Tony thought Elder
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: Leopold Spencer said Mark Kenyon. Maggie says Mark Kenyon. Clay
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: says Elder Leopoldian says all the Leopold. Brent says Steve Ranella.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: That is a zero per center. The correct answer is
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: Wallace Stegner. Wallace Stagner has written over sixty fiction and
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: non fiction books and is known as the Dean of
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: Western writers.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 4: But I bet this quote is in your book, meaning
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 4: that Mark Kenyon, an author, wrote these famous.
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: Words in his book. This quote in your book. This
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: quote is the epigraph for my book. Okay and Maggie.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: On the second page of my book is this quote,
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: and it informs the title of my books.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 4: Author Mark Kenyon wrote these famous words. He wrote those words.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: Heart type them into the into the word document. That's true.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: I don't think I would have We could go to a.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 11: Three way tiebreaker if we wanted more fun.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: Have you been listening to this argument?
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 5: You guys didn't get it.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: I think, Phil, Phil, what do you said? Do we
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: give them that?
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 11: I mean, if if, what's what's the spirit of the game.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 11: If we're just having fun, I'd say absolutely. But if
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 11: if if you're a se me to be a judge,
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 11: I would say, no way, We're here to have.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: Fun, all right, because then we could have as I mean,
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: you're right. I did type them into the word document,
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: the epigram the book.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 4: Well done, Megan, all right, so we go.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: Wallace Stagner, as I mentioned, he was the dean of
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: Western Writers. Wallace Yes, and you guys should know Wallacener.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: He taught at the University of Utah, Wisconsin, Harvard, and Stanford.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 1: He's recognized as not only one of the greatest writers
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: coming out of the West, one of our greatest conservationists.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: That line that I read originally was a part of
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: the Wilderness Letter. The Wilderness Letter was this letter that
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: Stegner sent to a Congressional commission back in the sixties
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: as they were debating the Wilderness Act. Should we set
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: aside wilderness in this nation? There's a big debate discussion
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: for years and years about it. Stagner was this famous
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: professor and author and pulled into a lot of different
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: administrations to advise on these things. He sent this long, lengthy,
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: beautiful letter which ended up getting published publicly because it
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: was so influential. And then eventually that Wilderness Letter which
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: this came from, was actually used as the introduction to
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: the Wilderness Act. So all of our designated wilderness areas
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: that we have left in this nation there there because
• 1:05:53

• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: gave me a time. I have no idea how many acres?

  Speaker 1: US of A? Who I was later whoever's closest within
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: the three way tie takes the crown? You gotta Yanni.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: You know what, Yanni in this room. Yanni probably listens
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: to more episodes of my podcast than anybody else. That's right,
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: more than Tony Peterson, more than Tony for sure, more
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: than ton and and we had a podcast talked about
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: this pretty recently, so I.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 5: Didn't listen to that one. I was one of the
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 5: ones to tell me how to kill big bucks.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: Fair enough, now how to grow them? All right, how
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: are we doing? It would be good.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 10: I can't wrap my head around this, but sure, yeah,
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 10: all right.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: Let's see what you got, Heather. Nothing bears its fifteen
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: tony forty point million, forty point one million. I wish
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: you were in the game. Buddy Spencer's one and one million,
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: Maggie one point five million, Clay four hundred million, Yannie
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty seven million, and Brent one hundred million.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: The correct answer is approximately forty million acres. So close, dude.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 9: I've been in the tiebreaker almost every time I've played
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 9: trivia and always got my ass kicked.
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: And then the number to you recently. Yeah, you're so close.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: That is crazy.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 9: Mark says a lot of stuff.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so we've got about forty million acres of lawn
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: in this nation.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 4: And did she at one point five?
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, I guess so Maggie won the game.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 12: Yes, flooky thing like that's not even an.
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: I'll take a w We're here to have a good time.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: Well done, Maggie. The reason this is on my mind
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: is because, like I said of Yanni, we had this
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: guy in the podcast named Doug Talomy who is popularized
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: an idea called the Homegrown National Park idea, which was
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: this idea that, hey, there's forty million acres of lawn
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: out there that's lowsy for wildlife, as lousy for birds
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: and bugs and pollinators in the whole nine yards. So
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: what if we could try to teach people to turn
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: their lawns into native vegetation.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 12: You know, Mark Kenyon, I have been busting my butt
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 12: this year trying to grow some native grasses and plants
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 12: on my dirt patch of a new lawn.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 10: It is not easy, but we're getting some roots and.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: Good for you, and that's fitting that you want today.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 5: It's a three year process. Sleep, leap, no sleep, creep
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 5: and leap. Ye first year, give them time, The second
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 5: year it creeps. The third year at leaps.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: That's right there, you.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 12: Go, Well, I'll be dealing with dirty, muddy dog paws
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 12: in my house for three years.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 5: It'll be worth it.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: Well well done, Maggie. Who are you going to be
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: donating your winnings to today?
