  Speaker 2: And your big bang question again the categories technology and culture.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: In twenty twenty one, England's then Prince Charles revealed his
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Aston Martin dB six Volante had been converted to run
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: on what.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Liquid and now the answers to the big bang round
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: question what what seven letter V word means of old
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: recognized and enduring interest or quality or old fashioned vintage?
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Question two? What two word term is used for all
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: the frequencies of sound combined? Something you might like in
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: the background white noise?
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Question three? In artillery, what type of ammunition consists of
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: a collection of smaller caliber round shots packed tightly in
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: a canvas bag named after what it resembles when packed?
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Grape shot, grape shot marty.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: And finally, In twenty twenty one, England's then Prince Charles
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: revealed his asked and Martin dB six Valante had been
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: converted to run on what liquid the liquid made in
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: vintages of white grapes wine.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I mean they talk about finding something else to get
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: cars to run on. I don't know that I ever
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: thought of wine as a good replacement.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: I run on it. Yeah, this was converted to run
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: on e eighty five bioethanol, which is a mix of
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: eighty five percent bioethanol made from leftover wine cheese way
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: and fifteen percent unleaded gas, so there is still a
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: little gas in there. The wine used is not fit
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: for human consumption, and the way is merely a cheese
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: buy product, so this is just taking what's left over
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: after processing.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Yeh, so this sounds more practical after all.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's not viable for a source, even though
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: it can say it's renewable. The amount of production I
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: think that you would need of it would either not
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: be sustainable or be very bad too, like cows and
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: goats or whatever make the cheese, and then grapes probably
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: can't keep up with. I don't know. It just is
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: one of those things where it works, but there's a.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Lot of this works if you're the King of England.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: The designer he asked them to do this. He asked
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: the designers of Aston Martin and they pushed back at first,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: saying that's ridiculous, it'll ruin the car. And he kind
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: of was like, okay, then I just won't drive the car,
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: and they're like, okay, hang on, we don't want the
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: Prince of England to not want to drive our cars. Anyways,
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: they relented, and then once they figured it out, they
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: admitted it ran better and was more powerful on that
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: fuel than on petrol.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: That's interesting.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: And the now king said it smells delicious as you're
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: driving along.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Because he's so when he drives his Aston Martin along
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: it smells like cheese and wine.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: My gosh, hell, the other half loops, why doesn't our
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: car smell like cheese and wine.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: When we drive a rest sorry and we're pulls, we'll
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: never know. We can only hope to be on the
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: road side whilst he drives by.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: And be like unconsumable King.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if you got a car to run on salt water,
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: I think we'd be sitting pretty. But yeah, it's not
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: very profitable or smoke, just get it to run. Smoke.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: If we got cars to run on pollution, Wow.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Ran on pollution and output caviar for one.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: Could you imagine?
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah? The byproduct is so what were these corrections we
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: had to make?
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Yes, all right, so we got a couple of corrections
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: from rocket scientist John. He says he's still enjoying the
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: podcast and sharing it with his son, Hello rocket scientist
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: John and son, very.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Nice, junior scientist.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: Ah. First, with respect to the question about the president
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: of Hungary, you badly mispronounced his name. I apologize, as
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: I learned from my grad school advisor who grew up there.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Magyard does not really mean hungry. It is the name
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: of the predominant ethnic group in their own name for
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: their country. Hungry is the Western version. His second a
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: minor knit. The protagonist of Count de Monte Cristo is
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: not in prison and at the beginning, but after the
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: events that lead up to it, So that's true. At
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: the beginning of the book, he is, Oh, he's doing great,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: carefree and fancy, free and just so happy until everything
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: falls apart. It is a great read, though, if you
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: haven't read Count of Monte Cristo highly recommend.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: And it's a Dantes yes, and then May.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I did accidentally say Dante instead of Dantes, and
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: I think that was just a little brain hiccup that
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: sometimes I just don't so yes, it's so. I think
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: what that means is that I need to reread the book,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: which is great for me because if you're like I,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: don't read classical books, they're a drag. Read this one.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: It reads like an action.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: It's a phenomenal book.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sad that's something I love so much. I
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: messed up because it's a great book. So to anyone
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: who's ever considered reading it, it's on your reading list.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Do yourself a favor. It's a treat and a half.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Thanks May, Thanks Rocketite as John. We always appreciate feedback.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: So keep us honest and keep us clean. You don't
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: have to keep us clean, no, not, thank you.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: Much. You're enough to do that for ourselves.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: And that's about it. We hope everyone is safe. It's
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: a little scary in Colorado right now, so we hope
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: that all of you listeners are in safe areas, and
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: we hope that for all the firefighters that the wind
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: calms down and that you also are safe while fighting
