- 19:41Speaker 1: George the sixth in nineteen forty two due to its
- 19:45Speaker 1: role in the Allied war effort.
- 19:52Speaker 2: Now now the answers to the Big Bang Round. Question one.
- 19:56Speaker 2: The traditional eating pattern based on the dietary habits of
- 20:00Speaker 2: countries such as Greece, Italy and Spain is known as
- 20:03Speaker 2: what Mediterranean diet?
- 20:10Speaker 1: Question two. The Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem,
- 20:13Speaker 1: a Catholic military order focused on aiding the sick, the
- 20:16Speaker 1: poor and patient care, is also known by what name
- 20:21Speaker 1: The Knights Hospitaller.
- 20:25Speaker 2: Question three? Who wrote the nineteen thirty four detective novel
- 20:29Speaker 2: The Thin Man dashel Hammet?
- 20:36Speaker 1: And finally, the George Cross was awarded to which island
- 20:39Speaker 1: country by King George the sixth and nineteen forty two
- 20:42Speaker 1: due to its role in the Allied war effort, located
- 20:47Speaker 1: in the Mediterranean and serving as a base for the
- 20:50Speaker 1: Knights Hospitaaler for a while, and having a name connection
- 20:53Speaker 1: with a dashal hammet work. It is Malta, the.
- 21:00Speaker 2: Malta Tease Falcon, Malta Teese. I love it because they
- 21:09Speaker 2: got this metal and they were so proud of it
- 21:13Speaker 2: that it's now part of their flag.
- 21:14Speaker 1: They put it on the flag.
- 21:16Speaker 2: I just think that that is so. I don't know why,
- 21:19Speaker 2: Like I don't want to sound like patronizing, but I'm like,
- 21:22Speaker 2: that's just so cute.
- 21:26Speaker 1: It was a great spot because it's near Sicily and
- 21:32Speaker 1: north of Tripoli in Africa, so of course the Italians
- 21:37Speaker 1: and the Germans wanted it for staging attacks and things
- 21:40Speaker 1: like that. It would just be a good strategic spot.
- 21:44Speaker 1: And because I think the British had a presence there,
- 21:48Speaker 1: they were able to hold it and keep it from
- 21:51Speaker 1: falling into Axis hands. And the Knight's Hospital had a
- 21:57Speaker 1: that was their main base of operation for a while,
- 22:01Speaker 1: and they actually were administrators of a vassal kingdom there
- 22:06Speaker 1: or something like a like. They treated it kind of
- 22:09Speaker 1: like a fiefdom with I think with Tripoli and just
- 22:14Speaker 1: that that region in general. If I'm not mistaken, they
- 22:18Speaker 1: ended up getting kicked out. I forget why. But there's
- 22:22Speaker 1: a lot of history on Malta, and it relies heavily
- 22:25Speaker 1: on tourism. But there's not a lot of water there.
- 22:28Speaker 1: It gets pretty hot and dry in the summer, so
- 22:31Speaker 1: they have, you know, they have to import a lot
- 22:35Speaker 1: of stuff and get those tourist bucks for the economy.
- 22:39Speaker 1: But it looks looks beautiful and it's also you know,
- 22:43Speaker 1: probably the where the best dogs in the world came from.
- 22:47Speaker 2: It's true, so we should visit give them our money
- 22:50Speaker 2: as a thank you. Yeah, I've been great, as he
- 22:53Speaker 2: had been a clue question, but we can't actually expect
- 22:58Speaker 2: everyone to know what breed of dog we used to own.
- 23:04Speaker 1: And I figured that the malted milk balls from the
- 23:10Speaker 1: UK probably been a little spot on as well. The
- 23:15Speaker 1: dashal Hammett work. As Annie said, Maltese Falcon and yeah,
- 23:19Speaker 1: I think if you're talking about hard boiled detective stuff,
- 23:23Speaker 1: Sam Spade dashal Hammett and the thin Man, Nick and
- 23:27Speaker 1: Nora are dashal Hammett as well. Yeah, so he came
- 23:31Speaker 1: up with a lot of good characters.
- 23:33Speaker 2: Yeah, the film series for The thin Man, I haven't
- 23:36Speaker 2: actually read those books yet. The film series is really great,
- 23:39Speaker 2: so I would like to read that series.
