- 11:25Speaker 2: questions that are made up, you know, like not actually

- 16:56Speaker 2: all over the world, live in underground barrows called sets
- 17:00Speaker 2: and has a honey species who just don't care?
- 17:08Speaker 1: And your big bang question again the category sports. What
- 17:11Speaker 1: NFL team, the third oldest franchise, plays in the smallest
- 17:16Speaker 1: metropolitan area, but boasts thirteen league championships, which tops the league.
- 17:26Speaker 2: And now the answer is to the big bang question.
- 17:28Speaker 2: Question one? What is the name of the fictional company
- 17:31Speaker 2: that makes them sells ridiculous products that fail or backfire
- 17:34Speaker 2: For his best customer, Wiley Coyote. Acme Coyote has used
- 17:42Speaker 2: acme Anvil's dynamites, axel grease, invisible pained giant rubber bands,
- 17:47Speaker 2: rocket powered roller skides, dehydrated boulders, and jet propelled pogo sticks,
- 17:52Speaker 2: among other items. I mean, they have great products to sell,
- 17:57Speaker 2: they just don't work.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Question two, what is understandably the most popular cheese in
- 18:03Speaker 1: the UK and the second most popular cheese in the US? Cheddar.
- 18:09Speaker 2: I like that she added understandably, so that makes me
- 18:13Speaker 2: think of May is a Cheddar fan. I am a
- 18:17Speaker 2: Cheddar fan. I'm just also a general cheese fan, so
- 18:21Speaker 2: it's hard for me to pick a favorite.
- 18:22Speaker 1: English Cheddar is pretty big, though, it's pretty good.
- 18:27Speaker 2: Question three, watch short legged omnivore of the same family
- 18:32Speaker 2: as otters, wolverines, minx and ferrets, has a honey specie
- 18:36Speaker 2: who just doesn't care badger. If you ever get a
- 18:43Speaker 2: chance to watch the honey Badger video, in case you haven't,
- 18:46Speaker 2: I assume everyone's seen it. Watch it. It's hilarious.
- 18:50Speaker 1: We had a badger outside here not too long ago.
- 18:52Speaker 2: We did, and anyone you tell that you've seen a badger,
- 18:55Speaker 2: they'll just say they're so mean.
- 18:59Speaker 1: And the big bang question? What NFL team, the third
- 19:01Speaker 1: oldest franchise, plays in the smallest metropolitan area but both
- 19:04Speaker 1: thirteen league championships, which tops the league. Originally named for
- 19:11Speaker 1: the Indian Meatpacking Company, which was bought by ACME in

- 19:18Speaker 1: in the badger state, it is the Green Bay Packers.
- 19:24Speaker 2: Great question, thank you, May. Yes, I've never thought about
- 19:29Speaker 2: it because the fandom for the Green Bay Packers is
- 19:33Speaker 2: so big and so loud. I've never thought about how
- 19:36Speaker 2: it's actually in a smaller area and because they are
- 19:40Speaker 2: so dominant, you know, I do like that they wear
- 19:43Speaker 2: giant cheese hats. I think that's fun.
- 19:46Speaker 1: It is, Yeah, it is fun.
- 19:47Speaker 2: I guess I don't have a football team a cheer for,
- 19:50Speaker 2: so maybe I should cheer for them so I can
- 19:52Speaker 2: be a cheesehead is that what they're called? And just
- 19:55Speaker 2: do a really nice cheese spread for every football game
- 19:59Speaker 2: that could get be watching football.
