- 0:24Speaker 1: teach you more about trivia than there were lines I
- 0:26Speaker 1: couldn't understand Nicholas Cage say and Spider Man Noir. I
- 0:32Speaker 1: mean I understood most of the things he said, but
- 0:33Speaker 1: he committed to his voice. I'm also just very old.
- 0:40Speaker 2: Any We got a coffee from Rebecca. Thank you, Rebecca,
- 0:49Speaker 2: Thank you. Rebecca, who had some very kind words for us,
- 0:52Speaker 2: was truly appreciated, and she was recently on Jeopardy.

- 1:12Speaker 2: We also had a clarification on a question from last week,
- 1:17Speaker 2: the question about the gymnastics move, the medieval weapon and
- 1:21Speaker 2: the fish, where the answer was pike. Well, the question
- 1:25Speaker 2: said the common name for the genus of fish that
- 1:28Speaker 2: includes walleye, but it is not in the same genus
- 1:33Speaker 2: the pike walleye are called walleye pike or yellow pike
- 1:39Speaker 2: or pike perch, but they're at a different genus there
- 1:42Speaker 2: in the Sander genus, as opposed to the Northern pike,
- 1:47Speaker 2: which is actually a pike. It's a pike pike, which
- 1:51Speaker 2: the genus of that is Esochs. So sorry about that.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Yeah, who would have thought a pike's not a pike.
- 2:00Speaker 2: A walleyed pike is not actually a pike. It's that
- 2:04Speaker 2: southern pike.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Yeah, but it wasn't correct, so we are happy to
- 2:08Speaker 1: correct it, and thank you to John for pointing it
- 2:11Speaker 1: out to us. We appreciate it.
- 2:14Speaker 2: And don't forget. We have online Zoom Trivia the second
- 2:18Speaker 2: Saturday of June.
- 2:21Speaker 1: That's the thirteenth, at noon mountain time.
- 2:24Speaker 2: And I believe that's the business. Let's get to the pleasure.
- 2:30Speaker 2: Here's other show works. Whiz Quiz, Bang Bang's format is
- 2:34Speaker 2: four rounds of four questions each followed by the answers.
- 2:37Speaker 2: After round two, we'll ask a quick fire bang Bang
- 2:40Speaker 2: question where you'll have a time limit to give multiple answers.
- 2:44Speaker 2: After the fourth round, the show culminates with the Big Bang,
- 2:47Speaker 2: a final round with three questions whose answers are all
- 2:50Speaker 2: clues to one final question. Round one. Question one, the
- 2:56Speaker 2: category is anatomy. What is the name of the body
- 3:01Speaker 2: part that separates the left and right airways of the
- 3:04Speaker 2: nasal cavity? Question two category television. Robert Crawley, the patriarch
- 3:16Speaker 2: of the Crawley family, played by Hugh Bonneville in Downton Abbey,
- 3:20Speaker 2: is the earl of which English town. Question three category animals,
- 3:31Speaker 2: Which kind of fully matured amphibian has a tail? Question
- 3:39Speaker 2: four category geography. This one comes from listener Jos. Thank
- 3:44Speaker 2: you Jose, Thank you Jos. Which of the following countries
- 3:49Speaker 2: does not border Poland, Slovakia, Ukraine, Hungary, Lithuania? And now
- 4:02Speaker 2: the answers to round one Question one, what's the name
- 4:05Speaker 2: of the body part that separates the left and right
- 4:07Speaker 2: airways of the nasal cavity the septum? Question two. Robert Crawley,
- 4:15Speaker 2: played by Hugh Bonneville and Downton Abbey is the earl
- 4:18Speaker 2: of which English town Grantham Question three, which kind of
- 4:26Speaker 2: fully matured amphibian has a tail? We'd accept two answers
- 4:32Speaker 2: here salamanders and Kycilians. Kycilians are a group of limbless
- 4:41Speaker 2: worm or snake shaped amphibians don't make up. I don't
- 4:45Speaker 2: think a very big portion of the amphibian population. Tadpoles
- 4:50Speaker 2: and such do have tails, but those are absorbed by
- 4:54Speaker 2: the time they're fully mature. And then there's a species
- 4:57Speaker 2: called the tailed frog where males don't they look like
- 5:04Speaker 2: they have little tales, but they're not actually tails. They're
- 5:07Speaker 2: extensions of a kloaca.
- 5:09Speaker 1: Oh, that classic rude.
- 5:13Speaker 2: Question four. Which of the following countries does not border Poland, Slovakia, Ukraine,

- 6:11Speaker 1: Question eight. The category is history. Which English monarch was
- 6:16Speaker 1: the last emperor of India? And now? The answer is
- 6:23Speaker 1: around two. Question five, Homer's iliad is set toward the
- 6:28Speaker 1: end of which war? The Trojan War. I hope the
- 6:35Speaker 1: Odyssey is good. It looks like it has potential.
- 6:39Speaker 2: Someone said, why do we need a remake when we
- 6:41Speaker 2: had Wishbone in the nineties.
- 6:45Speaker 1: Question six. A computer hacker intending to improve security is
- 6:50Speaker 1: often called what good guy fashion accessory?

- 7:04Speaker 1: Shouldn't they be like a black shoe or something? Eh?
- 7:08Speaker 2: Yes?
- 7:11Speaker 1: Question seven. The three banded armadillo is the only species
- 7:15Speaker 1: of armadillo that can do what roll into a complete
- 7:21Speaker 1: ball to defend itself, because armadillos are pretty well known
- 7:25Speaker 1: for being able to roll into a ball.
- 7:29Speaker 2: That's what the rdel Dorado taught me.
- 7:31Speaker 1: Yeah right, that's what cartoons are for. But only one
- 7:37Speaker 1: can do it because the other armadillos their armor is
- 7:41Speaker 1: too inflexible in sections and prevents it so they can
- 7:44Speaker 1: kind of curl up, but they don't make like the
- 7:46Speaker 1: perfect ball. Question eight. Which English monarch was the last
- 7:52Speaker 1: Emperor of India? George the sixth Man. Georgia's just didn't
- 7:59Speaker 1: have a good time hanging on to colonies.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Ha, you'll be back.
- 8:09Speaker 1: I do love that now. Whenever I think of King George.
- 8:11Speaker 1: I just think of Jonathan Groffs singing.
- 8:15Speaker 2: That's it for the first half. That means it's time
- 8:17Speaker 2: for the Bang Bang Round. The category for this week's
- 8:23Speaker 2: Bang Bang Round is Sports. You'll have thirty seconds to
- 8:28Speaker 2: give as many answers as you can to the following
- 8:30Speaker 2: The NBA Finals have started. There are five players who
- 8:36Speaker 2: have won three or more NBA Finals MVPs and one
- 8:41Speaker 2: who has won two since twenty seventeen. The five players
- 8:46Speaker 2: that have won five or more are for all the
- 8:49Speaker 2: history of the NBA Finals, but only one who has
- 8:53Speaker 2: two since twenty seventeen. So we want you to name
- 8:57Speaker 2: those six players. Your time starts now, and that's time.
- 9:33Speaker 1: The six players who have won three or more NBA
- 9:38Speaker 1: Finals MVPs are Kevin Durant he has two, Magic Johnson,
- 9:45Speaker 1: Shaquille O'Neal, and Tim Duncan all have three. Lebron James
- 9:53Speaker 1: has four, and Michael Jordan with six. So Lebron James
- 10:03Speaker 1: has to just keep playing. He needs two more.
- 10:07Speaker 2: I probably was a little unfair to it. I think
- 10:09Speaker 2: it's Kawhi Leonard. I believe he won in twenty sixteen
- 10:15Speaker 2: and twenty twenty. Boy don't quote me on that. I'm
- 10:19Speaker 2: just trying to go off memory. But I could have
- 10:22Speaker 2: added a seventh player in there and said since twenty sixteen. Oops, sorry, Kawhi.
- 10:28Speaker 1: We're sorry. I'm sure you're doing just fine without it.
- 10:31Speaker 2: I'm sure he listens religiously. Round three. Question nine. The

- 11:51Speaker 2: western part of the Arab world is usually defined as
- 11:54Speaker 2: encompassing much of what region Northwest Africa. Etymologically, it means
- 12:03Speaker 2: both the western place and the place where the sun sets.
- 12:09Speaker 2: Question ten, what's the first superhero movie to win an
- 12:12Speaker 2: Academy Award? Superman in nineteen seventy eight, it won Special
- 12:20Speaker 2: Achievement in Visual Effects.
- 12:23Speaker 1: Yeah, and several have one sense. I mean famously Black
- 12:27Speaker 1: Panther for getting nominated for Best Picture, first to do that.
- 12:32Speaker 1: The next one was Tim Burton for Art Direction, and
- 12:35Speaker 1: then The Incredibles, I think one for Best Animated Feature.
- 12:41Speaker 2: I think Black Panther won for music and costumes, didn't
- 12:44Speaker 2: it at the very least.
- 12:46Speaker 1: I definitely know they won for costumes. I'm not sure

- 12:59Speaker 2: vegetation is known by what term related to a more

- 13:17Speaker 2: on a legendary king of the Britons who reigned around
- 13:20Speaker 2: the time of the founding of Rome, Dingam King Lear.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Oh. I just read a book called Fool and it
- 13:32Speaker 1: tells a story of Lear from the perspective of his fool.
- 13:39Speaker 2: The fool's one of the best parts in it.
- 13:41Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, oh Man. Round four. Question thirteen. The
- 13:47Speaker 1: category is a sports geography. This question comes from Major Data.

- 15:35Speaker 1: naked eye that appear not to move relative to each
- 15:38Speaker 1: other against the dark background of the night sky are
- 15:42Speaker 1: called what stars. Fixed stars is actually a misnomer, as

- 16:25Speaker 2: three questions, the answers of which are all clues to
- 16:28Speaker 2: the final question. Keep in mind three clue questions may
- 16:31Speaker 2: not be from the same category as the final Question one.
- 16:36Speaker 2: Hoping to write Star in and direct the adaptation, Gene
- 16:41Speaker 2: Hackman bought the rights to Which Thomas Harris book before

- 16:51Speaker 1: Question two. In the Tale of Aladdin, a sorcerer gives
- 16:56Speaker 1: Aladdin a ring that sums a genie who is less
- 16:59Speaker 1: powerful then the genie found in which object?
- 17:07Speaker 2: Question three, which colorful family of lepidoptera make up only
- 17:13Speaker 2: ten percent of the entire lepidoptera order?
- 17:20Speaker 1: And your Big Bang question? What insect shorted out an
- 17:25Speaker 1: early supercomputer and inspired the term computer bug.
- 17:34Speaker 2: And now the answers to the Big Bang. Question one.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Hoping to write star in and direct the adaptation, Gene
- 17:40Speaker 2: Hackman bought the rights to which Thomas Harris book The
- 17:45Speaker 2: Silence of the Lambs.
- 17:49Speaker 1: Question two. In the Tale of Aladdin, a sorcerer gives
- 17:53Speaker 1: Aladdin a ring that summons a genie who is less
- 17:56Speaker 1: powerful than the genie found in which object lamp.
- 18:02Speaker 2: The original story is a little different from the Disney version.
- 18:05Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no ringing the Disney version.
- 18:07Speaker 2: Oh, the evil sorcerer in the original version absconds to
- 18:13Speaker 2: the Maghreb.
- 18:15Speaker 1: Oh.
- 18:15Speaker 2: By the way, hey, Aladdin has to track him down
- 18:19Speaker 2: there and get the lamp back.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 18:22Speaker 2: Question three, Which colorful family of lepidopter i make up
- 18:25Speaker 2: only ten percent of the entire lepidoptera order? That would
- 18:29Speaker 2: be butterflies?
- 18:33Speaker 1: And your Big Bang question? What insects? Shorted out an
- 18:36Speaker 1: early supercomputer and inspired the term computer bug. The lamp
- 18:42Speaker 1: loving bug that appears on the silence of the lamp
- 18:45Speaker 1: poster and makes up ninety percent of a lepidoptera. It
- 18:50Speaker 1: was a moth.
- 18:53Speaker 2: I was surprised that ninety percent of lepidoptera were moths
- 19:00Speaker 2: and only ten percent were butterflies. That's that's pretty crazy.
- 19:04Speaker 1: I feel like I see more butterflies than moths. But
- 19:07Speaker 1: maybe that's just because of where we live.
- 19:10Speaker 2: Moths are crepuscular and so am I. They like coming
- 19:15Speaker 2: out at twilight, so maybe that's why you don't see
- 19:19Speaker 2: as many. You're you're just out more and see more
- 19:22Speaker 2: butterflies during the day.
- 19:23Speaker 1: That makes sense.
- 19:25Speaker 2: Was this when the supercomputer was the size of a bathroom?
- 19:30Speaker 1: Yeah, this was in nineteen forty seven, and it was
- 19:33Speaker 1: at Harvard Universal.
- 19:34Speaker 2: Size of an airplane hangar.
- 19:35Speaker 1: Then, yeah, and they found a real moth trapped in
- 19:40Speaker 1: an electro mechanical relay of the Harvard marg I computer,
- 19:46Speaker 1: and the term bug was subsequently coined to describe technical
- 19:49Speaker 1: hardware faults in software errors.
- 19:52Speaker 2: There you go.
- 19:54Speaker 1: I guess it wasn't the very first time, necessarily that
- 19:58Speaker 1: the word bug was used in regards to technology, because
- 20:02Speaker 1: Thomas Edison's early telegraph operators had used bug to describe
- 20:07Speaker 1: equipment faults since the eighteen seventies. But the Harvard Mark
- 20:11Speaker 1: two moth made the term famous in the computing lexicon.
- 20:17Speaker 1: So just like that, a moth changed the world.
- 20:22Speaker 2: Be the moth you want to see in the world.
- 20:24Speaker 1: That's right. One other little fun fact is that the
- 20:30Speaker 1: original log book and the moth itself are still preserved
- 20:35Speaker 1: today at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington, DC. Wow,
- 20:42Speaker 1: so you can go and visit this moth and be like,
- 20:45Speaker 1: you're a trivia question.
- 20:49Speaker 2: So don't forget Saturday the thirteenth noon. Mountain Time zoom
- 20:55Speaker 2: link is available if you ask one pet peeve that
- 21:00Speaker 2: popped up. I didn't know I had. Everyone's repeating that
- 21:06Speaker 2: summer has started. That's incorrect. It doesn't start until the
- 21:10Speaker 2: summer solstice. So if someone's like, it's summer, you can
- 21:14Speaker 2: be like, just actually.
- 21:17Speaker 1: It's funny. I think that bothers you a lot more
- 21:19Speaker 1: than me, because I think, what's judehits. I'm like, it's summer,
- 21:23Speaker 1: just like in my head, and I know not to
- 21:24Speaker 1: say it to people because then people correct me and
- 21:26Speaker 1: they're like, it's still spring, and I'm like, but I'm
- 21:28Speaker 1: in summer mode in I think, just like with summer
- 21:39Speaker 1: break for school, you know, there's so many like yeah,
- 21:42Speaker 1: I think June is thought of as summer, even though it.
- 21:46Speaker 2: Because schools get out summer break for kids and teachers
- 21:50Speaker 2: and yeah in the weather and everything. I get it.
- 21:56Speaker 1: You get my people say the wrong thing.
- 21:58Speaker 2: I get it while you're technically incorrect.
- 22:03Speaker 1: I get why you say the wrong thing at the
- 22:05Speaker 1: wrong time.
- 22:07Speaker 2: Do you get why I'm pedantic because I don't? Please help,
- 22:13Speaker 2: Please stop me now? Anyway, Hope see you at the
- 22:18Speaker 2: Zoom Trivia and hope your fake summer is off to
- 22:22Speaker 2: a good start. For this episode of Quiz, Quiz bank Bang,
- 22:25Speaker 2: I've been.
- 22:25Speaker 1: David Flora, I've been Annie Flora. He is looking at you.
- 22:29Speaker 2: Quiz the NBA finals have started.
- 22:43Speaker 1: Time starts that.
- 22:46Speaker 2: He ended up not being involved at all because he
- 22:50Speaker 2: felt the material was too dark and violent.
- 22:53Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I think he was excited about the dark,
- 22:55Speaker 1: violent material, but his daughter was like, you're going to
- 22:59Speaker 1: get known for this, as he had just finished a
- 23:01Speaker 1: film that was dark, and She's like, you don't want
- 23:04Speaker 1: to be the dark material guy. So he was like, okay, daughter,
- 23:07Speaker 1: you're right.
- 23:09Speaker 2: Sold it off. They also asked Sean Connery to do
- 23:12Speaker 2: the role before Anthony Hopkins.
- 23:14Speaker 1: Yeah, and Sean Connery himself was like this is disgusting
- 23:19Speaker 1: and had no interest.
- 23:22Speaker 2: I heard his brain's from father Beans and a nash
- 23:27Speaker 2: Ki anti
