  Speaker 1: According to a likely made up legend, the Marquis d'
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: lafayette gave President John Quincy Adams what as a gift?
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: And now the answers to the Big Bang round. Question one,
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Which American university is the only school to have won
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: the national championship in both basketball and football in the
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: same year two thousand and seven, University of Florida.

  Speaker 2: persons met for worship and religious instruction? Congregation?
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: And finally, according to a likely made up legend, the
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Marquis de Lafayette gave President and John Quincy Adams what
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: as a gift? The mascot of the University of Florida
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: that lives in congregations mostly in fresh water, an alligator.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Alligators are great.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: I was said that he was given this alligator and
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: kept it in the bathtub to scare guests. But nobody
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: can really find a credible source that says this. Adams
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: didn't write about it at all in any of his correspondences.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Neither did any I think news or publications around the time.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if that was real, you think there'd be at
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: least a mention. I don't think you'd be like, dear Diary,
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: nothing happened.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Today today when I took a bath. Apparently John Quincy
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Adams is kind of a lightning rod for legends, because
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: there was one I think we've talked about on the
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: show before where he was swimming naked in the river
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: and a newspaper journalist came and sat on his clothes
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: and wouldn't give them back to him until he did
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: an interview with her. Yeah, apparently that was just a
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: rumor spread to kind of discredit her as a journalist,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: which I don't know. I think that's pretty funny. Yeah,
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: a good way to get your questions asked.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Ka, are you discredit her or making her an icon?
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: It's just not done. You just do not sit upon
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: the president's clum.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: And alligators, for the most part, live in fresh water
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: because I think from what I understand, they don't have
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: a certain organ that helps filter salt. Oh yeah, like
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: crocodiles do if I remember correctly. And yet there are
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: some alligators that live in mangrove shallow and some coastal
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: waters which are brackish, if not just salt water. I
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: think it's just tougher to live there.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe not as pleasant. Yeah, Like we could live
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: somewhere that was hot and humid, we just wouldn't enjoy it.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't thrive. And going back to the Cairo question, Oh, Caira,
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: I bet you could do that with just about every capital.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: So what is the local name for this that?
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: Yes, I think you could. There might be some that
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: are like Paris.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah that are the.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Same, but there's probably quite a lot that are different.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: But other than that, Thanks for goalie us.
