• 0:07
  Speaker 1: This media podcast. Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spen
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: to New Arton. Today we're joined by special guest Dr
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Grace Surdivant. In addition to her, we also have Steve Brody,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Janice Chest, Your Seth cal and Maggie Smith. Now, Grace,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: how do you feel about Trivia? Under prepared? Underprepared? But
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: it's going to be a great time. Okay. I like
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: that attitude. Now, if you're not familiar, Grace, this is
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: a ten round quiz show with questions born out of
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: meat eaters for verticals what you're hunting, fishing, conservation and cooking,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: And there is a prize. Meat Eater will donate five
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: dollars to the conservation organization of the winners choosing. So far,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: we've met Steve when six times, Brody went for Jhannice
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: win three, and Clay Seth, Corin Chester and Dustin Hoff
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: have each one once. Now I have an update for you,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Steve on scorekeeping. Well, you're not gonna like this update either.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: I was trying to solicit listeners to help us gather
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: some data on Meat eat Trivia, but before that episode
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: even published. Since it's weeks away from going out, I
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: had somebody reach out who had already taken the liberty
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: upon themselves to do that anyway. So they have been
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: gathering how many each person has gotten right when we've
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: gone into overtime, what people's win percentages, how much people
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: have donated to certain organizations. It is coming along nicely.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: It's not ready yet, but you're gonna be blown away
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: by all the data we have. What I'm not like
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: about that can give him a little preview that gave me.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: We will. We'll start trickling out some of this information
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: over the next few weeks. But one of the most
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: important data points that we have so far is correct
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: answers per round and Brodie is winning about he actually
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: did included in the spreadsheets each time Steve makes a complaint.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: There was one episode were you were really on one.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: I think you had twelve complaints more than one question
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: averaging question, but then other episodes you only had like
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: two or three. So I think we should have backtrack
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: figure out what happened to you that morning, or or
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: what happened the night before, if your kids got in trouble,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: what their grades were, and then we might be onto
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: something there. So the data is coming along nicely. I
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: don't need anybody else to reach out to the mediator
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: inbox because we have our official statistician. No, that's great,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: thank you? Who is that? Can you tell us that
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: not yet? More? More coming soon? Now? Today's episode is
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: going to be a little bit different. That's because this
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: episode drops on June twenty nine, which is one day
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: after we release the first episode of season two of
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Pardon My Plate, four days after South gets married. This
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: has nothing to do with that, but I like that now.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: If you're not familiar, Parton My Plate is the show
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I host on our YouTube channel where we cook critters
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: that most folks assume are inedible. So to celebrate the
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: new season, every question today is going to have something
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: to do with the animals we eat on Pardon My Plate.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: That means each of these questions is going to have
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: a tie to carp, coot, coyote, muskrat, crow, bobcat, goldfish,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: or skunk. Don't worry. I know what you're showing all,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: but I don't think you described it well. It's not
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: that people widely regard to be inedible. There is a
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: spirited debate about the edibility, and usually it falls on
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: the end of the spectrum though that says they are inedible. Yeah,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: but it's generally the thing where people is generally where
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: people comment on the lack you know, I mean, like,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: like you don't here. I guess you could do one
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: on jellyfish for instance. Never mind, I'll take that back.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: You're right. Hey, um, it's Marmot on the up and coming.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: If we go to a season three, I think we'll
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: have to do Mormont, definitely seeing them all over right now,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: that'd be just cleaning those things as a challenge. I
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: think you should do jelly fish. So it's like a
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: little fat. It's very hard to scam a lot of
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: a lot of fat somebody doesn't eat. We have not
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: done Prayer. That would also be on season three. Have
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: you done a new Tria? No, another good one. We
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: do have roadents. So now don't worry if you've never
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: seen the show. You'll still be able to participate in
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: today's round of trivia because these are still questions from
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: our four verticals, and to compete in today's round of trivia,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: I've also invited Maggie Smith, the producer of Pardon My Plate,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Maggie has put more hours into this show, so she
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: should be well equipped to answer questions about all the
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: weird things we eat. How you feeling, Maggie? Bringing on
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: all right? Now, before we get to Trivia, we have
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: some housekeeping to take care of. On a previous episode
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: of Trivia, I asked where the annual World Champion Squirrel
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Cookoff is held. The correct answer was Arkansas, but the
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: World Champions Squirrel Cookoff reached out and said that after
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: a decade of taking place in Bentonville, they're moving to Tennessee.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: In Well, according to them, it would suck if the
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl was in Cleveland for forty straight years, so
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: they want to give the rest of the country a
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: chance to experience the squirrel cooking competition, taking it on
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the road over to Joyce's or Grace's house. Did you
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: call me Joyce? Yeah, that's interesting. I haven't been called
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Joyce before you in the it does. I'll give you that.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: So if you live in Tennessee and you want to
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: see the World Champion Squirrel cook Off, we're competing it.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: It's coming there in October. I think we could probably
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: convince them to come to Bosing, Montana sum year too. Well,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: if they want a change of scenery, they should go
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: a little farther than like Tennessee. It's right there. It's
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: not very far. Little steps, little sets, squirrel hunt teeth
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: down there in the neck of the woods where you were.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: You were born and raised in Tennessee, right, Mississippi, Granada, Mississippi.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Because I was a full time student at Vanderbilt, it
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: was a contested issue. The first runner up did contest
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: my win, but because I was a full time resident
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: of the site of Tennessee for the required time period,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: the second place contested it. Yeah. Is it a thing?
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Is it anything in pageantry where somebody would like grow
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: up in Texas, but they're gonna move to North Dakota
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: because that's easier to compete there. People have done that. Now,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: I I did not grow up like Toddler's and tears.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I'm not like a like born and bred pageant girl. Um.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: I'd like to think I'm not a stereotypical pageant girl. Um,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: but it was a really cool experience. So I'm not
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: gonna like knock it, but um, but yeah, I have
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: heard of people going that far as to move to
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: a state that did not have as strong of contenders,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: like when Hillary Clinton's all a sudden like I'm running
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: first Senate in New York. Doctors in Pennsylvania now. Also,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: a listener brought to my attention that the Nebraska Game
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: in Parks Commission is now hosting a Nature Nerd Trivia Night.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Their first event was held in May and took place
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: at five bars across the state. You were allowed to
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: compete in groups of five. I've and the reprises for
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: the winning teams. It's unclear wind Nebraska will hold their
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: next Nature Near Trivia night, but good on them for
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: combining a few of our favorite things, nature, trivia and beer.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: They didn't say how to turnout was you know, I
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: haven't heard how it is. That sounds like a great idea.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: If Montana did that, we'd have a team for sure.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Every state should get on that action. Yeah, that's great.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: With that, we were onto trivia play the drop, Phil, Look,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: I need to know what I stay under? Win everything?
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: How just tend to win everything? Game on Suckers now
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: a reminder here all ten questions will have some sort
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: of tie to pardon my play, which is available on
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: YouTube right now. Question one the topic is conservation and
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: it is multiple choice. According to the U s GS,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: which of these animals is not found in Alaska? Goldfish, crow, common,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: carp or coyote. Again, according to the U s G S,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: which of these animals is not found in Alaska? Is
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: it goldfish, crow, common, carp or coyote. Steve, you probably
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: have the best connection to Alaska in this room? How
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: do you feel? Not cocky? Not cocky? Grace is very
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: proud of her answer, showing it off to the room.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: I don't think anybody's trying to cheat off by paper
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: with this topic. Honestly, I think we're waiting on you.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I might take it all. You never know, Underdog. Everybody
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: have an answer, Go ahead and reveal your answers. We
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: have Steve saying crow, Grace saying goldfish, Seth saying crow,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Brody saying common, carp, Cal saying carp, Marge saying carp,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Chester saying goldfish, and Janice saying coyote. The correct answer
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: is carp. It. Craws have been in Alaska for long
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: as long as humans have. Coyotes showed up about one
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: hundred years ago in the southeastern part of the state,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and goldfish have recently been found in numerous ponds in
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: urban areas, including Jewel Lake, Cheney Lake, and Taku Lake
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: in Anchorage. What did accounted if um like one of
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: the university ponds and Anchorage had like carpon? You know
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: they they've actually had a few instances where goldfish have
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: showed up or carp in urban ponds, but they still
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: have declared that carp have not entered Alaska's boundaries. Buddy
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: mine up. There's been an Alaska Fisheries forever met him
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: through Steve, so I knew that one well done well.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Technically goldfish is a carp So you know that. That's
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: why we went common carp We're onto question too, what
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: you what you have? That's right? I thought yours was stupid.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: And the topic is cooking. A long standing tradition allows
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: many Catholics in the Great Lakes region to eat muskrat
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: during Lent. What is the first day of Lent? Oh,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: but we're gonna be pissed. Who's gonna be pissed? My grandmother? Oh? No,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: says Graham. Now again, A long standing tradition allows many
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Catholics in the Great Lakes region to eat muskrat during Lent.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: What is the first day of Lent. You're looking for
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: a date. No, Oh, Peggy's gonna be up upset to Chester.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: So you're you're anticipating getting a lot of blowback for
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: not knowing this. Yeah, like God had one son, it's
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: his name. It changes every year. I'm looking for what
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: day every year does Lent start on? Gosh? I thought
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: this would be a gimme for the room. I'm just like,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I wish the question would have been what the setup was?
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: I mean that as I wish you'd been looking for
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: the answer that you gave in the setup. But I
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: think you're talking about how they eat muskrats. I don't
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: think it was exclusive. Can you say the question one
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: more time? One more time? Here? A long standing tradition
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: allows many Catholics in the Great Lakes region to eat
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: muskrat during Lent. What is the first day of Lent? Steve,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: you should be very happy with this question. It seems
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: as though no one else in the room knows it.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I didn't write cockily, Okay, I'm not unhappy with my answer.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: We have Steve saying Good Friday, Grace saying Day after
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Fat Tuesday. Seth saying Wednesday, Brodie saying Friday before Easter,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Cal saying ash Wednesday, Marge saying ash Wednesday. Chest you're
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: saying four weeks before Easter. Here, Joanna saying day after
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: fat Tuesday. And I think the correct dancer is ash Wednesday,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: which I believe is the day after fat Tuesday, right, correct,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: So we'll give it to you. I'm sorry they were
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: very Tuesday, but you can't think of Wednesday that correct,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: two days after the day before once a year now.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: The genesis of eating muskrat during Lent goes back to
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: the early eighth century. It all started after a parish
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: in Detroit made a special exemption that allowed Catholics eat
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: muskrats during Lent so that they wouldn't starve to death
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: during a series of hard springs that caused rural missionaries
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: to run low on food. So you're still accepting that answer,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: I will take the day after Fat Tuesday that is
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: also known as ash Winds Day. I want people to
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: know I'm not complaining about that. When you take you
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: like I can't name it, No, not taking just Wednesday.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Did you say Wednesday? You said one day Wednesday. I'm
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: complaining about it because the Catholics don't actually acknowledge fat Tuesday. Okay,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: we will give it to you for saying we're on
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: the question. Three said Wednesday every bit as good as
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: day after Tuesday. The topic is okay, Tuesday the day
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: said the day after fat Tuesday, not any Tuesday. Tuesday
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: day is Wednesday, girlfriend, Diana Tuesday. That's not what it
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: sounds like. Well, we gave a specific Tuesday, not just
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: a general specific protection in it. But you said what day?
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: One hundred percent Yanni and Grace get it. And I'm
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: going to defer Phil for if Seth gets in Seth
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: or Phil says that Seth does, we will give it today.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I named the day, but it's not it's once a
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: year in the day, and they got it. It's once
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: a year. You just say you named fifty two days.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: That could mean tomorrow. He meant, like, what day does
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: it land on? Well, Land's on Wednesday. You give it
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: to him. I quit. I gotta pull a Steve right
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: now and kind of complain about the way Spencer worded
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: that question because he didn't he didn't say, like what
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: do they refer to it as? Or like what do
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: they call it, and he just said what day does
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: it fall like? And said Wednesday? Wednesday, whatever, I got
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: it wrong either way. Let's just some worry that I
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: could argue that it was Friday. Whatever, let's go, I'm
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: gonna name the day it's not. But you guys have
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: the idea. Oh yeah, that counts because there's always question three.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: The topic is biology. This word describes the scavenging diet
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: of crows and coyotes, which means they feed on rotting
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: carcasses without participating in the killing of the animal. Can
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: you re reread it? This word describes the scavenging diet
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: of crows and coyotes, which means they feed on rotting
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: carcasses without participating in the killing of the animal. Steve
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: had a quick answer. The rest of the room, though
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: not so much quite cockily, all point out Maggie. Meggy
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: knew it right away, she says, Brody knew it. You
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: felt it right away, like Humunculus told you. My Humunculus
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: and me both knew. I'm pretty sure I finished writing
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: before Steve. Wow, Maggie is too fra the heat. Does
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: everybody have an answer? No? But I know when they
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: throw it up and be like, yes, of course, I'm
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: not happy with my answer. Go ahead and reveal your answers.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: We have Steve saying carrion grace without an answer, Seth
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: saying scavenger, Brody saying Carrie and saying Carrie, and Mark
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: saying Carrie in Chessie without an answer, in Jana saying
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Carrie and that is the correct answer Carrion, She's Marge.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: I'm pooned from Every spelling is not part of the
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: game unless I say it either. It is the right day, right.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: Did you know all this stuff before, you like wrote
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: all this stuff for these shows or is it just
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: fresh in your mind? She found it out two days before.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: I'm otherways before. Other animals with carrying diets include vultures, hyenas, crabs,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: and beatles. Many carrion eaters are also gorge eaters, which
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: means they fill their stomachs and crops beyond what you
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: think is their natural limit. Run. The question for the
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: topic is fishing. This river, which has produced multiple state
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: record carp was dammed up to create famous reservoirs like
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Guntersville Lake, Wheeler Lake, and Kentucky Lake. So I'm looking
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: for the name of a river. This river which has
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: produced multiple state record carp was dammed up to create
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: famous reservoirs like Guntersville Lake, Wheeler Lake, and Kentucky Lake Grace.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: How you feel about this, it's sort of your from
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: your part of the world. I'll take a look at
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: the map. A stumped room. I mean, I wrote down
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: an answer, but I have very little confidence. Does everybody
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: have an answer? That's what? Now? You know? Something I
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: realized before I come to Steve, I wonder Brody reads
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: my ship this reflective glass surface. Something I realized is
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: that I always bounced these questions off of my wife
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: before I come in and play, and sort of helps
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: me gauge how hard the round is. In the last
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: couple of times, she gets half as many right as
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: the winner. And I'll tell you last night when we played,
• 18:20

• 19:23
  Speaker 1: Lake is on the border of Kentucky and Tennessee, and
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: it's very confusing when you're there. Gundersville and Wheeler are
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: the two biggest lakes in Alabama, both of which were
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: formed by Dam's on the Tennessee River. Guntersville has hosted

• 19:49
  Speaker 1: you can send it to trivia at the meat Eator

  Speaker 1: word at the two scripts spelling B and it is
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: a type of bird related to coots in the rail family.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: More hand, Phil, how you think you would do on
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: this one? If I were to ask you to spell
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: more hand, you think you'd get it. I learned a
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: new word for the first time today and it was
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: more hand. Okay, it's gotta be tricky, so it's not
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: sound it out very good, but I couldn't spell it.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: A matter of fact, when I was trying to tell
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Brody about the other day, it took about fifteen minutes
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: to find it on Google. I don't know what to
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: start writing in. Everybody have an answer looking for you
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: to spell morhan. Let's just wrap it up. Be honest,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: you're just waiting on I mean, yes, the h gets everybody. Yeah,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: this is not writing a new version of the word.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: I'm ready go ahead and reveal your answers. We have
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Steve going m O r h e n Grace going
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: m you O r h e n n e Seth
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: saying m ou r h e n. Brody saying m
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: o o r h e n, Cal saying m o
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: O r h e n. Mark saying m a u
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: r e h t n. That's very creative. Chest You're
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: going m o o r e h e n and
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Janice going m o h r h e n. He
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: crossed out m o o r h e n. You
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: guys did pretty well. The correct dancer is m o
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: o r h e n. Right there, Phil r h
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: e n. That seems like an easy Here's here's why
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: I was put mine down thinking that I was just
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: thrown it away. Harreni Logan won this year's spelling be
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: with that word. In the competition's first ever lightning round tiebreaker,
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: the fourteen year old eighth grader from San Antonio spelled
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: twenty one words correctly in the nineties scond spell off,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: while her competitor only got fifteen. Right. Congrats, Hareni. Now
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: if you thought that was the easiest, because it was.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: When they did the lightning round tiebreaker this year, they
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: made them of a much easier difficulty. So that's why
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Morehan doesn't seem as complicated. That's what you think was
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: to some people. Phil hit the scoreboard day Uh in
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: the last place. Uh with no points on the board yet,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: is Chester the dister tester? He's a ster now yeah
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: lately Yeah, And with one point coming up next to
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: seth uh tied tied for third place, we have Grace
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: and Steve with two points. Tied for second place, we
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: have Maggie, Janie and Brody with three and then with
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: four points in first place. A man who's been getting
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: a lot of ship for his trivia performance lately is
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: cal calhead So seths only correct answer is Wednesday? Is
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: that what you're saying? Then, I don't feel bad at all.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: You got you got it, nailed it. Halfway through the
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: game of Tribute, we're onto question six. The topic is trapping.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: In nineteen what became the first US state to ban
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: the sale of fur products? In nineteen what became the
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: first US state to ban the sale of fur products?
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Now this is relevant because many of the animals we
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: eat on part of my plate are typically harvested for
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: their for you're honest, how you feel about this one?
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Like a okay, that's pretty good, Calaman in lead, how
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: you feeling shaky? Because there's a ton of articles because
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: to another state followed me after and I can't remember
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: which one is in the lead, and it was like
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: a pretty big asterisk, yeah, big time because I can't
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: remember where it does everybody have an answer, kind of
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: New York, Great saying California, Seth saying California. Brod He's
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: saying California, cal saying New York, Maggie saying California, Chester
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: saying California. Everybody guesses either New York or California, and
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: nors like North Dakota, and the correct answer is California. Now.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Prior to the statewide band, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Berkeley,
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: and West Hollywood all band for sales at a city level.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Since then, other cities in Massachusetts, Michigan, and Florida have
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: made similar laws, but California remains the only state with
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: a statewide band now cal I'm not aware of New
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: York having a first sales ban. I don't. I don't
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: think that's right that the city do something like that,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: because there's the entire garment district that was based around
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: for which is why it was a really interesting story, right,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: And and the city band was um also shot full
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: of holes, much like the California thing where it's like,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: but you know you can still have for it just
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: has to be brought in from someplace else and it
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: can't be like Okay, yeah, you just see someone with
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: some piece of fur on and they're gonna get I mean,
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: it's still stupid as ship. If you have a leather belt,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: leather shoes, and a leather fast bike or jacket, that's fine.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: If you got fur on, they say you need to
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: shave that fur off and turned out into leather b
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: else you're in trouble. We're onto question seven. The topic
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: is conservation. How many species of wildcats are native to
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: North America? Again? How many species of wildcats are native
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: to North America? See a lot of folks make making
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: lists on their white board. How many species of wildcats
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: are native to North America? Seth, you just doing the
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: math in your head. My fingers boiled a lot of
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: thinking here. I don't know if anybody has written down
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: an official answer yet. Grace, how you feel about this?
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Just pulling a number out of thin air? Okay, but
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: you know what, sometimes you get lucky might be the
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: right one, might be the right one. And it was
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: souped up wild can't. Does everybody have an answer? Yes,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: go for it. Maggie, you got an answer, Go ahead
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying six, Grace
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: saying twelve, Seth saying five, Brody saying six, Cal saying five,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Maggie saying three, Chesters saying three, and Janice saying six.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: We do have a correct answer in the room. It
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: is six. What are they? Steve, Bobcat Lynks, cougar, aslot,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: jaguar jag or as Spencer says jaguar or as Spencer
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: would say, a jaguire rundy. That's why I asked you,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: or as I say, jaguar uh jagger rundy, the small
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: Bobcat Lynks sugar aslot, jaguar, jaguar rundy. The smallest of
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: these six species is the jaguar rundi, which max is
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: out at about fifteen pounds, and despite their name, they
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: are most closely related to pumas and are occasionally spotted
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: in Texas and Florida. Does that one have another common name?
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: The small one? Not that I'm aware of, cat called
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: a serbal? Isn't there is that different? Oh, it's not
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: where am I thinking? And we do have a seventh
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: cat in North America, which is the domestic cat, but
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: it's not native to hear so it does not count.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: We'll have to question eight. We will get a scoreboard
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: update from Phil after this. Skunks are one of the
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: only critters in the world that are immune to the
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: venom from what animal? Again, skunks are one of the
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: only critters in the world that are immune to the
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: venom from what animal? Maggie knew this one. I got
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: a couple of things I'm gonna put down. You can
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: pick which one you like. Can I ask a question
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: I might not answer. Is this like a specific or
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: like a height? You put down whatever you think is okay?
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: I will Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: reveal your answers we have. Steve, I want to preface
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: it by saying I'm having a rough game. Steve saying rattlesnake,
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Gray saying snake, Seth saying rattlesnake, Brody saying snake, Cal
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: saying rattlesnake, Karin saying snakes Chester, You're saying rattlesnake, and
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Jana saying rattlesto me saying we are not going to
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: accept snake Everybody got it right. They are immune to
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: all snake venom, so everybody all snake venom, all snake venom.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Other animals that are immune to snake venom include wood rats,
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: California ground squirrels, possums, domestic pigs, hedgehogs, honey badgers, and mongoose.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Studies have shown that skunks are unaffected by doses of
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: snake venom one hundred times higher than what it would
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: take to kill a dog. Spencer, Did you trap that
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: skunky eight? Or do you shoot it? We actually had
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: a landowner from out of town that had some problems
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: skunks where he sat the tramps, and over a couple
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: of days span he let me know when he got one.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: How sit with you? We we have an episode coming
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: out where we eat the thing and you can watch it.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Then I can't wait. Phil hit us with a scoreboard update. Alright,
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: well we have four players who are still in it. Actually,
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: I guess technically we have six. We have Steven Grace
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: tied for third place with four, We have Maggie and
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Cal tied for second place with five, and tied for
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: first place Bertie Henderson and the Honest to tell us
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: a six points and my Nemesses. Question nine. The topic
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: is cooking. The National Outdoor Show, which features a muskrat
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: skinning contest and muskrat cooking contest, is held every year
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: in what East Coast state? Again, this is the National
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: Outdoor Show, which features a muskrat skinning contest and muskrat
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: cooking contest, is held every year in what East Coast state? Steve,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: did you know this one right away? I wouldn't say that.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: I got a strong feeling. Everything likes has a strong opinion.
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: How about you, Seth, You look like you had a
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: quick answer. I have a good feeling, but I there's yeah,
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I have a good feeling, but I'm it might be
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: not right, not right. They they name a miss muskrat.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: They do actually have anything. They do have a miss muskrat.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: If you want to go compete, Grace, that ship sailed
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: a long time ago. O ACA. Does everybody have an answer?
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: I want to see what. I just need to see what.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: Bro you go ahead and reveal your answers. We have
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Steve saying Maryland, Grace, South Carolina, Seth saying Maryland, Brody
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: saying Pennsylvania, cal saying Pennsylvania, Maggie saying Pennsylvania, Chester saying Connecticut,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: and Jana saying the correct answer is Maryland something bit
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: two in a row. Hey, it ain't over yet. In
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: an unrelated event, in Maryland is also home to a
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: muskrat leg eating World Championship. The winner of the one
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: competition was Chucky Love Hayward, who ate twenty legs in
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: three minutes. Second place went to the defending champion, peg
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: Leg Bramble, who ate nineteen muskrat legs. That's a good
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: way to get bone stuck in your throat, man. They
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: actually when when the competition is over, they have an
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: official judge, which I think is like the town mayor
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: that goes through and evaluates the plates to see how
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: many bones are around and to make sure that everybody
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: ate the muskrats, they said, they ate. Who's calling you?
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: Do you want to know? It's the punt gun salesman? Actually,
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: uh so, I'll hit him back up after this. The
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: punt gun should be here this month. I cannot wait.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: Were onto the final question, Phil, give us a scoreboard update. Alright, Well,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: in second place we have Brodie Henderson with six and
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: the Honest is in first with seven points, so I'm
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: like out. But a reminder, we are going to be
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: collecting data from every game of trivia, so you should
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: still try because they could affect your average score per game.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: The topic is conservation. The Global Invasive Species Database named
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: T trout in the top one hundred worst invasive species
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: on the planet. What are they again? The Global Invasive
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Species Database named T trout in the top one hundred
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: worst invasive species on the planet. Is this gonna what
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: are they? Listen? I already got a complaint. I haven't
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: even heard the answer, because are you gonna be asking
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: what's trout and what's not a trout? You said it
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: not me? That's the question real quick? Is this thing
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: in shootable condition? Can we take it out on private
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: land and touch it off for a while? Oh that's
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: that's like the finale of whatever we do with you know.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Remember the comedian Gallagher, remember you guys had a similar hairstyle,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: Well he grew. Gallagher had two lines of humor, which
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: was he would do wordplay jokes. Then after boring everybody
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: with that ship, he would get out a giant sledgehammer
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: and smash fruit watermelons. Grace you never heard of this
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: fella watermelons, candle ops, and like people that were in
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: the know would like, bring a rain poncho. Well, we're
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: going to become like Gallagher with that punk gun. People
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: in the know will bring here and protect. Well, only
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: we knew somebody it help us out. Brodie, how are
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: you feeling about this question? I kind of want to
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: answer differently than I want to on the off chance
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: that I might be different than you Honice's answer, and
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: I'll like sneak up. The other part of it is yeah,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: because there's a thing that I would think yes, but
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: I could also see him like particularly like the kind
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: of place we're in right now. I'll tell you why
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: this is relevant to part of my plates because common
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: carp also made the top one hundred worst invasive species.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: But I'm gonna be really pissed if it's what I
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: think it is. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: and reveal your answer. We have Steve saying what two
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: of them? Two of them? Well, I had Brooke right there,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Rainbow and Brooke Grace without an answer, Seth saying Lake
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: and Rainbow, Brodie saying Rainbow, and Brooke House saying brown
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: and rainbow, I had brown, Maggie saying rainbow and brown
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: chest you're saying Brooke and Lake in rainbow and brown. No,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: I think somebody did get it right in the room.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: The correct answer is rainbow and brown. Who had that?
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: Oh my god wins and I think Maggie also got
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: it and cal well because a rainbow and brown were
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: the answers how many species of char in the top one?
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: H that's what we're not aware by. Rainbow could also
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: be considered one of the world's most successful parasites, a
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: parasite off humans because brook chowd are definitely Yeah, but
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: they're like, I think, arguably more invasive than rainbows or brown.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: That mean it's going to be like in the like
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: in a like Haul of Fame. Yanni has been on
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: rainbow are actually a salmon? Yeah, there's something nis like
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: in the like very very strong player these days. Yes?
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Is that two in a row? Yes, sir. You've also
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: now caught up to uh Brody for total winds, So
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: Steve is going to be giving you the distinct guy
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: as well as Brody from now on. I've been trying
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: to stay under the radar, but those days must be
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: over now Janni's as the winner, you get to choose
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: where our five dollar donation goes. So what's it gonna be.
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: I'd like to donate it to the Veil Big Horn
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: Sheep Initiative. Now we might need to give them a
• 37:40
