  Speaker 1: category is geography. This question comes from oor Mike thinks

  Speaker 1: a lot. What is the largest city by total area

• 11:47
  Speaker 1: twenty twelve film was a quasi prequel to the nineteen
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: seventy nine film Alien Prometheus.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: The reason for my understanding that it's was a prequel
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: is that Ridley Scott developed it to be before the
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: events of Alien, but it wasn't necessarily leading towards those
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: events or in basically the same world. It's like the
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: same universe, but not the same world. So it's something
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: like that. So it's it's like sort of a prequel,
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: but it's not.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: Like a direct Okay, I see what you're saying, Like.

• 12:58
  Speaker 2: I think, but the four in front of it or
• 13:00

• 16:31
  Speaker 2: According to the monk Rudolphus Glaber, how old was the
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: youngest Pope Benedict the ninth when he became pope?
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: And now the answer is to the big Bang round.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Question one? Who starred in the twenty twenty four American
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: dark fantasy Netflix film Damsel Millie Bobby Brown.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Now Bonjeovi.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think she's Millie Brown Millie.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Her real name is Milly Bonnie Brown slash bon Gioviy. Yeah,
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: but she changed Bonnie to Bobby for stage name. She
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: kept Bobby Brown as the stage name, but officially Millie
• 17:19

• 17:26
  Speaker 1: I read yeah.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: Question two, in which month is Guy fowk Night celebrated? Remember?

  Speaker 2: Remember that's in November. Question three?
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Which nineteen eighty four American mockumentary comedy film was Rob
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Reiner's feature directorial debut. This is Spinal Tap. That's a
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: pretty good debut.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: But I mean his Oh he did great.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I mean all those films he directed a few good men.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Princess Bride one of the best movies ever.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Like Pretty Tough Loss.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: And finally, according to the monk Rudolphus Glaber, how old
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: was the youngest pope Benedicta ninth when he became pope?
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: The same as Brown's character and stranger things the month
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: number of November and what spinal tap can turn it
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: up to.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Eleven but ours goes to eleven? So good.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: He became pope in October ten thirty two, and despite
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Rudolphus's testimony, a lot of historians believe that Benedicta ninth
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: was more likely around twenty when he became pope.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, people don't know for sure, but more people seem
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: to think that it was twenty years old, although there
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: are some accounts, including this monk that's say eleven or twelve.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: Good effort, I guess for ten thirty two, that's wild.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: It's more fun to say that he was eleven, because
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: that's crazy.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Could you imagine being a monk or a priest and
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: you'd have to assume somebody was qualified? I don't know,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: not in ten thirty two.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: It was one of those years, ten thirty two, you know,
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: the year of nobody being worth.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Anything, but the other thing that's interesting about him is
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: that he was the Bishop of Rome and ruler of
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: the Papal States for three periods, so between ten thirty
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: two and ten forty eight, and then again ten forty
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: five and then ten forty seven to ten forty eight.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: So he's the only person to have been pope more
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: than once.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: And he's also the only person ever accused of selling
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: the papacy.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Is that why he got it back? He's like, you
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: could be pop for a year, give me money, you
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: can pope for a year that I'll be it, and
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: then also someone else, and then you could be put
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: for a year and then I'll be pope again.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: Pope Grover Cleveland the first there.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's some some nepotism going on there. So so
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Benedict was the nephew of his two immediate predecessors, Benedict
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: the eighth and John the nineteenth.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: Well, good for him.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: And I guess his father obtained his election through bribery.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: So there's all sorts of corruption surrounding this guy.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: You don't say, Annie, that's another one that's kind of
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: a hardread. God's Bankers. Oh, yeah, that was that's a
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: crazy book.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but if you want to read a happy, uplifting,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: not dark book. We're not even that far into it.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: We're only like, we're only seventeen percent into the book
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: that it's called an Immense World. It is by ed Young.

  Speaker 2: It's just what we're reading right now.
