  Speaker 2: week's Big Bang Round is Botany and History. We will
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: give you three clue questions, which are all hints to
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: one final question. The clue questions may not fall under
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: the same category. Question one, Cooper, Ridgestone, and Hancook are
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: all brands that make.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: What Question two. In a Hans Christian Andersen tale, a
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: swan is mistaken for what kind of animal?
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Question three Fill in the blank for this quote from
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: Shakespeare's Henry the Fifth, we few we happy few we
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: blank of brothers.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: And your Big Bang question again the categories botany and history.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Sir Henry Alexander Wickham was the first person to smuggle
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: a large shipment of what kind of seeds from Brazil
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: to the British Empire in eighteen seventy six, And.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Now the answer is to the big Bang round Question one. Cooper, Bridgestone,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: and Hancook are all brands that make what tires?
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Question two? In a hun Christian Anderson tail, a swan
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: is mistaken for what kind of animal.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Duck? Question three. Fill in the blank for this quote
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: from Shakespeare's Henry the Fifth, we Few, we happy few
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: we blank of brothers, band, band of brothers.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: And finally, Sir Henry Alexander Wickham was the first person
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: to smuggle a large shipment of what kind of seeds
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: from Brazil to the British Empire in eighteen seventy six.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: The seeds of trees that make the substance. You can
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: have tires, ducks and bands made of rubber?
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Why did they have to be sneaky snakes?
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Brazil had a monopoly on rubber at the time because
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: it was the only place they would really grow. I
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: think they started to expand into other kind of tropic places.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: But he wanted it for the British Empire, or the
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: British Empire wanted it.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: They took it.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: They He took seventy thousand seeds. Wow, And to beat customs,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Brazilian customs, he labeled the cargo as exceedingly delicate botanical
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: specimens destined for Queen Victoria's gardens. And he was able
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: to sneak him out that way, and out of the
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: seventy thousand seeds apparently only about twenty seven hundred grew.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Is a good thing. I guess he got that. He
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: took that many thing for them, But that carries a
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: lot of consequences, one of which was the complete dismantling
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: of Brazilian economy, the Brazilian economy and Amazonian you know,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: leadership in that trade commodity. I think that set them
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: back quite a bit. Although you know, monopolies.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Aren't monopolies are bad, but also also the.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: British economy just because you're you're jealous or whatever. At
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: one point Henry Ford tried this maneuver too, and he
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: tried to build his own farm for rubber trees, which
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: you know, that makes sense that I don't think.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: It worked because of the climate.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the climate has a lot to do with it.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: It's there. I think they're very delicate trees. They like
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: a very specific environment. And he tried to build a
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: place called ford Landia and apparently it just happiest.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah you say that. Yeah, same thing. I was like,
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: like Disneyland, but terrible.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Anyways, Yeah, pretty crazy story. Bio pirate, that's what they
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: call him.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: A bio steal. Yeah, makes sense. The name is cooler
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: than the deed.
• 20:06

  Speaker 2: World in nineteen twenty five. That's fun. I wonder what
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: it looked like the first well, they.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: They had so much room. It was probably like flying
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: in a movie theater. That probably set up a projector,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: and everybody had leg room. Everybody's eating popcornis and everybody's smoking.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Probably hard to see through the haze.
