Speaker 2: Welcome to Meet Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. I’m your host, Spencer new Arth, and today we’re joined by Giannis, Randall, Brodie, Nate, Max and Alex. This is a ten round quiz show with questions from meat Eater’s four verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation and cooking. There is a prize. Meat Eater will donate five hundred dollars to the conservation organization of the winner’s choosing. We’re starting today’s show with a mail bag question. You can send your questions for the crew to Trivia at the medeater dot com at the subject line mailbag. This is something I’ve gotten from about ten folks, including our friend Lake Pickle. The specific email I’m reading though, comes from Dan Cunningham. He says, have you heard the new Luke Bryan song about hunting? Do you think it dethrones his other song as the worst hunting song of all time?
00:01:00
Speaker 3: Yes?
00:01:01
Speaker 2: If you’re not a longtime listener to the show. Back in twenty twenty two, I had a trivia question about Luke Brian’s song from two thousand and nine called Drinking Beer and Wasting Bullets. And on that episode I declared it to be the worst hunting song ever made.
00:01:17
Speaker 3: I don’t think I know that one.
00:01:19
Speaker 2: I’ll read you some of the lyrics in a second here. But a couple of weeks ago, Luke Brian came out with a new song that is taking the Internet and the outdoor community by storm. Are you guys familiar Have you heard it?
00:01:29
Speaker 3: Yeah, there’s a lot of speculation that it’s all just Ai written.
00:01:33
Speaker 2: Okay, we’ll get to that as well. The title of the song, you guys are gonna love this. It’s fish Hunt Golf Drink, And for copyright reasons, I can’t play it for you. But we have the next best thing, and that is karaoke champion Legend King is going to do at my phone out take it away.
00:01:53
Speaker 1: To put both head from.
00:01:56
Speaker 3: Six seven eight.
00:02:00
Speaker 4: If it wasn’t for the tax man, wasn’t for the beers, if it wasn’t for the traffic in my windshield, if it wasn’t always somewherepy Yeah.
00:02:15
Speaker 5: And my life was really up to me he stopped those ship kickers filled.
00:02:20
Speaker 6: If I caing have it my own way, you know thet me.
00:02:24
Speaker 4: Tell you how every day you would go weak Coffeeee Camel pum Tree.
00:02:31
Speaker 7: You went Line eighteen, fish Hunt Golf drink a fall spring now something long, living in a fan, living it on a contree, boys dream, fish Hunt golf Dream.
00:02:48
Speaker 5: Nice work, especially like the look on Phil’s face while he was singing that was solid.
00:02:55
Speaker 1: Do you does it feel like you just had a drink?
00:02:59
Speaker 6: Well that just for pep behind the curtain. Spencer slacked me this about an hour ago, and I said, yeah, I’ll go. Don’t worry, Trivia’s not for two hours. I’ll get to it when I get to it. And then I got a text from Randall fifteen minutes after Trivia was supposed to start, saying, Phil, where are you? It’s time to record trivia? And so I raced down here, listened to the song twice and then did that. So I’m so sorry.
00:03:22
Speaker 2: That is how deep the pool of talent is, Phil Taylor. He just needed fifteen minutes to come up with that.
00:03:28
Speaker 8: It’s incredible to do that. Once in my life I would consider myself.
00:03:33
Speaker 6: I love how much you think that. I just have a deep well of talent that doesn’t exist. But I’m going to keep milk.
00:03:39
Speaker 5: Anybody disagree, I’ll tell you what. It doesn’t say much for what’s his name? For his of talent?
00:03:48
Speaker 8: I want to know. I don’t know anyth about lu Brian. I’ve never like chosen to listen to Luke Bryan. Is anybody in this room like Luke Bryant In college? I went to multiple Luke Bryan concerts. Big supporter, but like you know, he makes music for a college kid who likes to drink and haunting golf and drink.
00:04:07
Speaker 9: Yeah that was you.
00:04:08
Speaker 2: Yeah.
00:04:08
Speaker 1: He also have the song about getting upwind of a buck.
00:04:13
Speaker 2: Well, okay, so the song that we are going to be comparing that to is Drinking beer and Wasting bullets again from two thousand and nine. In that song, he talks about how he just drank a twelve pack and he’s waiting on a deer and he’s, you know, just wasting bullets and he’s shooting a hundred grain thirty odd six, which does not exist anywhere in the world, so we must have you know, he’s actually such a peer outdoorsman that he handloaded his hundred grain thirty odd six bulls.
00:04:38
Speaker 9: What is the smallest thirty cow you can get at.
00:04:40
Speaker 2: Least twenty five grand for a thirty odd six in factory or just very just a.
00:04:45
Speaker 5: Bullet one tens I think I’ve seen.
00:04:49
Speaker 1: I feel can we get on that?
00:04:51
Speaker 2: So, as Max pointed out, folks have accused Luke Bryan of using AI to write that song. Well, I took that and I fed it to an a detector, which is, you know, the same thing like a college professor would use to see what it would say. It told me that those lyrics are zero percent AI. So AI is not even capable of coming up with something like that. That is all human skill there. Luke is getting bullied on the internet quite a bit about this, and he has responded on Instagram. Here are some of his clapbacks. As Max calls it, Here’s what he says, well, I’m learning that no one wants to have fun anymore. I choose to have a damn blast. Either come along or go be blah. Here’s another comment that he was replying to someone who was critical. He says, who are you chill on the adderall? And then one more comment, It’s called a fun song. Just listen and have fun. Go get on a boat, Quit scrolling on your phone all day. So that is what Luke say to go.
00:05:51
Speaker 1: Get on a boat.
00:05:52
Speaker 5: Except his livelihood depends on people scrolling on a phone.
00:05:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, as the host of American Idol, where he performed this song, I think last week as well, chill out on the adderall chill out on the addroll.
00:06:05
Speaker 1: That’s a good part.
00:06:06
Speaker 2: That was some good, good feedback from him. I am not going to say this is worse though, than the drinking beer waisting bullet song from two thousand and nine. You’ll have to go find that on YouTube and compare it to Phil’s rendition.
00:06:18
Speaker 3: Doesn’t he have a song?
00:06:19
Speaker 5: Did he have to put the golf?
00:06:20
Speaker 1: I hate they were starting out so negative this episode.
00:06:23
Speaker 10: Because it’s a country boys dream, doesn’t have a song called like hunting Fishing Day.
00:06:28
Speaker 2: Does have that? Yeah, he’s got that. If you were to do a top five worst hunting and fishing songs of all time, he might just make a clean sweep.
00:06:36
Speaker 5: Sings a song about takes read him.
00:06:39
Speaker 2: Brad Paisley has a song about checking for tics, getting the mud on the tires. Yeah, yep, all of these songs would sound like Bo Burnham. He’s a comedian who does music. He did a country satirical song that somehow sounded just like all of these real country songs. That’s that’s how accurate it was. Phil, You big Bo Burnham fan? Right?
00:07:01
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I loved I love Bo burn I thought Inside was incredible. That was his COVID project.
00:07:05
Speaker 2: Very good stuff. All right, No stats are housekeeping on this episode. The Shelby Index for today is a four, so our winner should get eight correct answers. And with that we’re out of the game of trivia. Play the drop fill.
00:07:24
Speaker 11: Nine.
00:07:25
Speaker 1: There’s time to win everything.
00:07:33
Speaker 2: Demon Suckers. Question one. The topic is wildlife. As always, this will be multiple choice. According to Texas A and M University, which of these animals is fastest? Is it a squirrel, moose, jack rabbit, or bison?
00:07:53
Speaker 12: I got a lot of issues, Okay, you.
00:07:55
Speaker 2: Want specific species.
00:07:57
Speaker 12: Like over what over what interval?
00:08:01
Speaker 2: Just the fastest top speed that they can achieve. According to Texas A and M, which of these animals we’re now looking at me? Is it a squirrel, a moose, a jack rabbit, or a bison? This is which of those four animals is the fastest?
00:08:20
Speaker 6: Uh?
00:08:21
Speaker 2: Later on, in the bridge of that song of Luke Bryan’s new Fish Hunt Golf Drink, he says, a little chip sip rip a couple lips. Which food plot? Am I gonna sit? That’s good wisdom.
00:08:34
Speaker 1: Oh, he means chip like a golf swing. I was thinking chip dip chewing my lip.
00:08:45
Speaker 2: You got it. You just came up with another bidden bridge. According to Texas A and M, which of these animals is fastest?
00:08:54
Speaker 1: Hymnal jack rabbit lyrics.
00:09:00
Speaker 2: Yanni is confident it is. Everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers, Maxwell says Bison, Alex Bison, Randall jack rabbit, Nate Moose, Jannis, jack rabbit, Brody moose. Oh, the correct answer is jack rabbit. I think we had Randall and Yanni get that one right?
00:09:28
Speaker 7: What you know?
00:09:28
Speaker 2: According to Texas A and M, the top speed of a jack rabbit is forty five miles per hour. That’s followed by a moose at forty miles per hour, bison at thirty five miles per hour, and squirrel at twelve miles per hour. The fastest a human has ever ran is Usain Bolt is at twenty seven point seven eight miles an hour. Forty five jack rabbits.
00:09:52
Speaker 5: My bird dog ran a jack rabbit down one time over like three or four hundred yards and gave it a heart attack and it died damn well over dead.
00:10:00
Speaker 6: The jack rabbit jack.
00:10:03
Speaker 2: Question to the dog. This question to the topic is fishing. This five letter word is defined as quote the length of metal from the hook eye to the point where the hook begins to bend. Max and Randall, let me check already locked in there. Answer five letter word is defined as the length.
00:10:28
Speaker 5: Of there’s a word that you should remove from the hook eye clearer.
00:10:32
Speaker 2: But I’m not going to point begins to bend. I think I got this definition from eagle Claw, great brand. That’s why I was just going with a direct quote eg Claw.
00:10:43
Speaker 9: Yeah.
00:10:45
Speaker 8: I fished a lot of those uh crappy rigs, pre pre made leaders, you know.
00:10:52
Speaker 1: The hook Yeah was it? Were they?
00:10:55
Speaker 9: I guess they were snelled like for.
00:10:56
Speaker 5: Like bait fishing.
00:10:57
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don’t know. I don’t know why. Like they were like I would find them like in my grandpa’s stash.
00:11:03
Speaker 5: It’s a classic thea.
00:11:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, tackle boxes love packs of snell.
00:11:07
Speaker 9: Yeah, but I don’t even know what they were actually for.
00:11:10
Speaker 8: I mean, I would just like fish like a worm they made that way, Like, what what advantage does that give you versus just tying your hook?
00:11:19
Speaker 9: Onto the line quick rigging.
00:11:21
Speaker 11: Yeah, when’d you put it on a swivel like that little attached and you just there and yeah, maybe that was.
00:11:30
Speaker 2: Has been so distracted he has a blank whiteboard.
00:11:32
Speaker 5: Yeah, I still have some of those snelled hooks, like I have some right now for sure.
00:11:37
Speaker 2: Five letter word is defined as the length of metal from the hook eye to the point where the you know what.
00:11:44
Speaker 5: It’s like heavy mono, and then it’s got to like you can just loop those snelled hooks onto things.
00:11:53
Speaker 12: We use them for.
00:11:54
Speaker 1: Perch.
00:11:57
Speaker 2: Is everybody ready wanted to do that? Go ahead and reveal your answer, Maximus, says Shank Alex without an answer. Randall Shank, Nate Shank, Jannis Shank, Brody shank. The correct answer is shank. The shank is basically this straight part of the hook on a standard jay hook. Shank configurations vary by style, including forged and unforged options, different lengths, unique shapes, and in some cases barbs that hold bait. And Phil has a diagram for us, Oh, we don’t need Phils showing you the anatomy of a hook, and there you can see what the shank refers.
00:12:37
Speaker 1: Brody was the wording that.
00:12:38
Speaker 5: You oh, it said, it was like it had the word point and narrow, which like m initially confused me.
00:12:46
Speaker 2: See, we’re onto question three. The topic is hunting. This next great question is via Ethan Zoonbrecker. Duck’s Unlimited says it’s thanks to this grain that Stuttgart, Arkansas is the quote duck capital of the world. Pretty good.
00:13:07
Speaker 12: Guess what what, you’re a duck dad?
00:13:09
Speaker 3: The Henhouse produced eight ducks.
00:13:11
Speaker 5: Eight there out there now they’re.
00:13:15
Speaker 2: Just swimming around in her pond, just little fuzzballs. Yeah, how much did you know leading up to that that you were going to have chicks this year?
00:13:23
Speaker 9: Well?
00:13:23
Speaker 10: I did see her try to like hop into the hen House, but she kept on hopping up top. And then later that day I think Steve texted me and he’s like, hey, Hen, Hen is in the house, And then like she, I kept on looking back and it was probably over like a two three week week period she was in there on her nest. And then I was texting Nate the whole time. When I was gone, I was like, what’s the duck report? Duck report? And then yeah, he probably just hashed within the last five days.
00:13:52
Speaker 1: Are you gonna grab one of them and practice diaper changing.
00:13:56
Speaker 12: Alongside your child.
00:13:57
Speaker 2: Are you more of a father figure Max of the landlord, being that you built the duck nest.
00:14:03
Speaker 3: I’m a more of a father figure. Well, no, I didn’t know, No more than landlord.
00:14:09
Speaker 12: They’re babies, ducks.
00:14:12
Speaker 9: Unlimited doesn’t get them.
00:14:15
Speaker 3: No, I think that time is past.
00:14:18
Speaker 12: Do you?
00:14:19
Speaker 2: Says it’s thanks to this grain that Stuttgarterner’s at Stutegart Stutgart, Arkansas is the duck capital.
00:14:27
Speaker 10: Of the world.
00:14:31
Speaker 2: Maxwell, flashing his answer, this is one that I think Max knows.
00:14:34
Speaker 1: I don’t know this one.
00:14:35
Speaker 12: I don’t know either.
00:14:36
Speaker 2: Everybody ready, do you says it’s thanks to this grain that Stuttgarden is the duck capital of the world. Go ahead and reveal your answers, Max, says, Rice, Alex Barley, Randall Millet, Nate, Rice, Yanni, Rice Brody Rice. The correct answer is Rice two for two on guesses. Many ducks, including the majority of North America’s pintails, rely on rice fields for wintering habitat. Birds love these flooded fields because they mimic natural wetland and offer an easily accessible source of high energy food. It’s estimated that more than half of the country’s acres of rice are located in Arkansas, with another twenty percent in neighboring states.
00:15:19
Speaker 1: Goodness, gracious.
00:15:21
Speaker 2: Half of the rice comes from all field dumb twenty percent the neighboring states, and I think it’s like twenty percent in California. So it’s only a handful of places.
00:15:29
Speaker 3: California is another heavy state.
00:15:32
Speaker 9: And they also have a lot of good duck hunt.
00:15:34
Speaker 2: Have you hunted around the duck capital of the world?
00:15:37
Speaker 3: Now, yes, well, oh, I not physically hunted, but I’ve filmed.
00:15:40
Speaker 2: Okay, hunting over flooded rice fields.
00:15:43
Speaker 10: A couple of times we did did flooded timber. Yeah, only a couple of times of flood.
00:15:48
Speaker 9: They lived was drowned in a can am bridge. Actually, oh yeah.
00:15:55
Speaker 2: Didn’t live up to the hype of being the duck capital of the world.
00:15:58
Speaker 10: Yeah no, I mean it’s just a cool area, a lot of history and yeah, yes, yeah’s.
00:16:03
Speaker 9: North Dakota and that’s what they do. So yeah, no, you don’t.
00:16:06
Speaker 10: What I mean, a town just lives up to the hype, and it’s if you’re a duck hunter, I would definitely recommend It’s just a cool place. There’s a lot of things to do and yeah, a lot of waterfall.
00:16:16
Speaker 2: Don from the duck Landlord Maxwell Question four Landlord topic is natural history. This is our listener question of the Week, which was won by Andrew Green.

00:18:29
Speaker 2: Question for this extinct animal is the largest bear species of all time, which is named after its compact muzzle. Is everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers, Maxwell says, short snout bear Alex without an answer. Randall short faced bear, Nate short faced bear, Yanni short faced, Brodie short faced. The correct answer is short faced. I’m sorry, point film, no point Phil.
00:19:00
Speaker 1: Are you doing all right?
00:19:01
Speaker 9: It’s been there for weeks.
00:19:04
Speaker 1: Spencer asked a lot of you at the outset of this episode.
00:19:07
Speaker 6: Well, I’m The.
00:19:11
Speaker 2: Short faced bear went extinct about ten thousand years ago during the last ice Age. Its death was primarily driven by climate change, the loss of large prey, and the increased competition with other predators. There were a handful of species and subspecies with a range that stretches from Alaska to Patagonia. The biggest of them could stand twelve feet tall and weigh two thousand pounds, which is five hundred pounds heavier than a polar bear. Phil has a diagram for us comparing the short faced bear to a grizzly and a polar bear. And they make a brown bear look small. Look at the quads on that sucker they always thing being like on steroids.
00:19:48
Speaker 5: We reached and my boys reached the lot one of those like Docu like it’s all CGIs, you know, but it’s like they did some short face bear stuff.
00:19:59
Speaker 9: Holy cow, it was good, but like.
00:20:01
Speaker 2: Those things means scary so mean. Yeah, it was based on context clues, but you don’t get that. Point Question five. The topic is conservation. The Conservation Law Foundation says it’s best practice to dial this call before you dig phone number. Before planting a tree?
00:20:22
Speaker 9: What I think.
00:20:26
Speaker 2: The Conservation Law Foundation practice to dial this call before you dig phone number. I think planting a tree looking for what that phone number is.
00:20:40
Speaker 10: It’s like, you got it, not the area code or and then the next five digits or I don’t know.
00:20:47
Speaker 2: There is one right answer and that’s all. The Conservation Law Foundation says it’s best practice to dial this call before you dig phone number.
00:21:01
Speaker 12: No, are you talking to Randam.
00:21:04
Speaker 2: Yanni? Do you have this one right?
00:21:07
Speaker 11: That?
00:21:07
Speaker 8: I have an answer written down that came into mind when I thought about it for a few seconds. Hey, do you have this one right?
00:21:15
Speaker 12: A fifty to fifty? It’s one or the other I had. I’ve been digging a whole bunch recently another project.
00:21:22
Speaker 3: Have you been calling before you dig?
00:21:23
Speaker 12: No? It should be If I was, I probably know this number.
00:21:28
Speaker 2: I did have to call them recently and they came out and they marked some lines. I’m good to go digging all kinds of holes. The Conservation Law Foundation says it’s best practice to dial this call before you dig phone number for planting a tree.
00:21:44
Speaker 8: We planted a couple of pairs and a couple of apples, and will be a chestnut.
00:21:49
Speaker 5: And I just found out that Spencer’s fixing to be a fruit farmer.
00:21:53
Speaker 2: I’m trying. I’m starting orchard in place. I’m now up to sixty trees and shrubs that produce fruit. Really six zero sixty this spring.
00:22:03
Speaker 1: That’s awesome.
00:22:04
Speaker 14: Jeez.
00:22:05
Speaker 12: What’s your most for? Your most excited about?
00:22:08
Speaker 2: Most excited about probably my peach because I can actually see peaches coming right now. But they also are not super tolerant bad winters like this past winter. You could get a coconut or pineapple lived through what we had here in the valley. But the peach trees, they’re like a fringe zone four fruit. So we’ll see how it does.
00:22:28
Speaker 12: I thought it took a couple of years start getting fruit. How’d you get around that?
00:22:31
Speaker 2: It varies? There’s like some things three years, other one six years, and you just never really know how big was it were the trees. We’re gonna move on here in a second. But I did everything from bear root, you know, which is like knee high up to things that are probably like eight feet tall. Just just a variety. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Maximus says for to one one Alex without an answer. Randall says seven to one one Nate eight one one, Yanni for one one, Brody one eight hundred dig say we have a correct answer in the room. Come on, it’s eight one one.
00:23:12
Speaker 12: That was.
00:23:15
Speaker 1: Like a what is that?
00:23:17
Speaker 2: What’s road conditions? Five to one one one?
00:23:20
Speaker 5: Like a directory or something like that.
00:23:23
Speaker 2: In two thousand and five, the FCC made eight one one the universal phone number for regional services that locate underground public utilities. It’s estimated that there are twenty million miles of buried utilities in the United States, with repairs exceeding thirty billion dollars annually. On average, an underground utility is damaged every six minutes due to a failure to contact eight one one.
00:23:49
Speaker 9: Every six What is.
00:23:51
Speaker 6: A word that’s in like the It’s like a slang word in like the lexicon that means like, give me the scoop, give me the four one?
00:23:56
Speaker 4: Yeah?
00:23:56
Speaker 6: Where it comes from?
00:23:59
Speaker 2: Fell half way through the game of trivia. Give us a scoreboard update.
00:24:03
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, at halftime, Alex has zero points, even an answer, Max has two points. Randola and Rody you have three points, and in first place are Nate and Giannis with four points.
00:24:19
Speaker 9: Anybody’s game.
00:24:22

00:24:28
Speaker 9: Wasn’t that the one that you Wasn’t that the way to call back? Maybe?
00:24:33
Speaker 2: Maybe I thought sixty sixty seven was to be unanimous, to be frank man landline days.
00:24:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, did you just look up ten twenty? And then we would get to the eight question? Uh?
00:24:47

Speaker 3: I believe, Okay, I’m changing.
00:25:59
Speaker 11: My man.
00:26:01
Speaker 6: Was something you could dial to get around like long distance rates.
00:26:04
Speaker 1: That’s right.
00:26:06
Speaker 2: It’s weird that they would give you these little hacks like here’s how you be anonymous, here’s how you get I.
00:26:11
Speaker 6: Think it’s sort of like like a VPM these days, like it’s legal, but they don’t want to.
00:26:14
Speaker 1: Well know they had they had. There were other variations on it, and they would run endless television commercials. If you didn’t grow up in the golden age of landlines late nineties landlines, man phones today are so boring except for the Internet and the apps.
00:26:31
Speaker 2: I feel like I have just been getting beat over the head with eight one to one commercials lately, just because I’m digging holes and obviously googling a launch. But I assume you guys like get some eight one to one commercials as well.
00:26:43
Speaker 6: I said hummingbird feeder out loud the other day for the first time and probably fifteen years, and I immediately got an Instagram for having review.
00:26:50
Speaker 2: Is everybody ready to tell me who Ted Williams played for? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Maxwell says Colorado Rockies, Alex says Red Sox, Randall Red Sox, Nate Yankees, Yanni Yankees, Brody Yankees. The correct answer is the Boston Red Socks.

Speaker 1: Baby and random one for one.
00:27:15
Speaker 6: Yeah, I am the first one I actually had an answer to.
00:27:20
Speaker 2: Ted Williams was named the fifth greatest baseball player of all time by ESPN in twenty twenty two. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in nineteen sixty six and the International Game Fish Association Hall of Fame in two thousand. The first of his three wives was the daughter of his Minnesota hunting guide. They had a daughter of their own in nineteen forty eight, and Williams missed her birth because he was fishing for snook in Florida. He then waited five days before flying to Minnesota to meet his newborn, then got back on a plane less than a week after that to return to Florida. He told reporters, quote, this place is too cold for me, and besides, the fishing is great. They got divorced six years later.
00:28:01
Speaker 12: Six years years it was harder to get.
00:28:06
Speaker 2: And Phil is now showing us a photo of Ted Williams with a large billfish.
00:28:13
Speaker 1: The animals that we harvest so tasteful.
00:28:19
Speaker 2: And Ted Williams had his own line of shotguns, rifles, fishing rods that were sold at sears back in the day. We are now on to question seven Socks. The topic is fishing. This Wisconsin brand was founded in nineteen sixty and is named after indigenous peoples of the Arctic. The room is stumped. This Wisconsin brand was founded in nineteen sixty and is named after indigenous peoples of the Arctic. Brody was locked in his answer. Out, I imagine I just gonna tell you the topic is fishing. Oh no, this was Johnsen brand was founded in nineteen sixty and is named after indigenous peoples of the Arctic. We’re gonna have a tight game here. I feel like there’s some board update.
00:29:12
Speaker 3: I got a question.
00:29:14
Speaker 2: Okay, I’m ready.
00:29:15
Speaker 10: Remember that on fact I told you about which athlete follows me at your Instagram.
00:29:20
Speaker 3: Yes, we have to have that question.
00:29:23
Speaker 2: Oh, I don’t know if that’ll go over real well now, based on the Ted Williams success in the room, two of our six players knowing who he played for?
00:29:32
Speaker 12: What?
00:29:32
Speaker 3: Current Stanley Cup contender.
00:29:35
Speaker 2: Nathan McKinnon follows me on Instagram and that just tickles Maxwell even though he plays for They Still how are they doing?
00:29:45
Speaker 9: I will leave?
00:29:46
Speaker 3: They lost the Abs, which Spencer’s a.
00:29:52
Speaker 9: Good guys.
00:29:53
Speaker 2: Why do you hate the Abs?
00:29:54
Speaker 9: Because I’m a Detroit Red Wings fan? Late nineties?
00:29:57
Speaker 2: Man lately This was Scontland. It was founded in nineteen sixty and is named after indigenous peoples of the Arctic. Is everybody ready go ahead and reveal your answers? Maximus says Eskimo, Alex says Minkota, Randall Eskimo, Nate Eskimo, Brody Eskimo. The correct answer is Eskimo, dude. Eskimo primarily sells ice fishing gear, with their first product being in Augur that was powered by a car battery. The Eskimo name is an umbrella term that generally refers to two groups of people, the Inuit of Canada Greenland and Northern Alaska and the Yupik of Siberia and Western Alaska.
00:30:47
Speaker 5: I got a great big Eskimo ice fish intent I’m looking to sell.
00:30:51
Speaker 12: Oh interest.
00:30:52
Speaker 2: You see, those are becoming real popular for hunters who are doing car camping in the fall.
00:30:57
Speaker 5: I think I might have retired from ice fishing after this last winter.
00:31:02
Speaker 1: Fish retired from you.
00:31:04
Speaker 2: That’s what it did. Question eight. The topic is conservation. This shark is the man behind the proposed one hundred billion dollar Utah data center. Shark is in quotation marks. This shark is the man behind the proposed one hundred billion dollar Utah data center.
00:31:26
Speaker 9: We talked about this yesterday. I can’t remember the guy’s name.
00:31:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, come up with the San Jose shark.
00:31:35
Speaker 3: No, No, I know what shark means in this question.
00:31:39
Speaker 6: Okay, did anyone here see Marty Supreme?
00:31:42
Speaker 4: Oh?
00:31:42
Speaker 6: Phil, No, that is a you know, that’s not a click for anyone, not for anyone.
00:31:48
Speaker 2: In this.
00:31:52
Speaker 5: Everybody crazy like when a hint is given, it’s not just about the people in this room, it’s about all the things.
00:32:03
Speaker 9: That’s so kind of you.
00:32:07
Speaker 6: I never think of the fans. That’s a good perspective.
00:32:10
Speaker 2: You never think this shark is the man behind the proposed one hundred billion dollar Utah name. Last name would be good enough. I’m okay with doing Jeopardy rules in that case. If you just give me the last name, we’ll accept that. Thinking about Phil’s, unless, of course, it was going to be like one of the Kennedy’s that would not fly.
00:32:32
Speaker 5: There’s a lot of different kinds of Kennedys.
00:32:37
Speaker 2: This shark is the man behind the proposed one hundred billion dollars Utah data center. Yanni is stumped, even after Phil’s hint, furious erasing.
00:32:50
Speaker 3: Max, I got one of them.
00:32:53
Speaker 2: Have you seen that movie? Phil?
00:32:55
Speaker 9: Yeah, okay, you give us a review.
00:32:57
Speaker 6: This guy who seems like, you know, I’m not gonna call him any names, Boner, but he was great and supreme. Well yeah, I mean he just played himself right, He’s really good.
00:33:08
Speaker 2: Oh, yes, Alex is gonna.
00:33:14
Speaker 9: Win the damn game. Puts up.
00:33:16
Speaker 2: Alex does a nickname.
00:33:21
Speaker 5: You?
00:33:22
Speaker 2: If you give us the nickname just for you, we’ll accept that. Yeah. I don’t think it’s not because I like you. It’s not because you’re a nice guy. It’s because we respect the troops around here and Memorial Day.
00:33:35
Speaker 1: I am losing this game.
00:33:37
Speaker 2: If you give us the nickname that’s probably even harder to come up.
00:33:41
Speaker 6: With than Thanks for his actual name anytime, and thanks Brody for keeping the wheels turning.
00:33:49
Speaker 1: Randall, you have this, I’m not gonna change. I like have my answer, but I’m like, is it close to this?

Speaker 2: Go ahead and reveal your answers. Max says Mark Cuban, Alex Cuman is Cuban. Cuban, Alex says mister wonderful, Randall O’Leary, Nate, Mark Cuban, Yanni without an answer, Brody, Kevin O’Leary. The correct answer is Kevin O’Leary, who has the nickname mister wonderful Wow Alex, what a weird did he give himself that nickname?
00:34:25
Speaker 6: It shouldn’t work for him probably.
00:34:27
Speaker 2: The proposed data center is called the Stratus hyper Scale Data Center. Its campus will span forty thousand acres, which is sixty two square miles, making it the biggest of its kind on the planet. It will solely use twice as much electricity as the rest of the state and consume billions of gallons of water. Scientists predict the campus could create a heat island and raised local temperatures by two to five degrees during the day and eight to twelve degrees at night.
00:34:55
Speaker 5: Wow, he was a real smug son of a biscuit talking about that thing.
00:35:01
Speaker 2: And here’s a rendering of the proposed campus that day that does that does look like him? And now he’s the bald guy. His new thing is he wears jewelry that features like sports cards in it, like a million dollar kolbe Bryant signed rookie jersey card. Phil, give me a review of I was directed towards Cooked Marty Supreme, and then a scoreboard update.
00:35:27
Speaker 6: Please It’s a Descent into Hell with the World’s Worst Person. I didn’t really buy the ending, but I thought the movie overall was great.

00:36:01
Speaker 2: Question nine, the topic is biology. This next great question is via Eric Trumbull. This eleven letter word is defined as the intentional killing of young offspring by a mature animal of the same species. This eleven letter word is defined as the intentional killing of young offspring by a mature animal of the same species. Nate and Brody and.
00:36:31
Speaker 5: Answers, I know what animals do this?
00:36:37
Speaker 2: What animals do this? Max? You’re right?
00:36:45
Speaker 12: Do you know what?
00:36:47
Speaker 2: I’m good? I will list my examples in the flighter text, and those are both among my examples. This eleven letter word is defined as the intentional killing of young offspring species. They’re killing, they’re raping, they’re pillaging.
00:37:04
Speaker 12: Yeah, hid your kids Jijia dolphins.
00:37:11
Speaker 2: Eleven letter word. Oh, I like Max’s answer. Sure, I don’t worry. Eleven letter word the intentional killing of young offspring by mature animal of the same species. Yanni, Do you have this one right?

Speaker 2: If you want to spell that correctly at home. I an F A N T I C I D E.

Speaker 9: In fantas gona have.
00:37:59
Speaker 5: Our spelling, bead are spelling, yeah spelling.
00:38:01
Speaker 2: The thing’s gonna happen, I promise. In fanticide, it is surprisingly common across the animal kingdom, with it being done by dolphins, lions, leopards, bears, squirrels, mongooses, frogs, primates and more. Sometimes it’s a measure of population control so there’s less competition for resources. But most often and fanticide is practiced by males who want to eliminate other males and so females are motivated to mate again.
00:38:26
Speaker 11: Is there a different word for if they like, abort a fetus that hasn’t been born yet, like a zebras will do that.
00:38:32
Speaker 2: I don’t know, probably just abortion.
00:38:34
Speaker 12: Still in the non fanticide, well.
00:38:37
Speaker 2: I think in fantaside would have to be like the thing is born and then something else is killing. All right, here’s a correct answer review so far one Jack Rabbit two, Shank three Rice four, Short Faced Bear five eight one one six Boston Red Sox seven, Eskimo eight, Kevin O’Leary nine In Fan Decide Phil Scoreboard.

00:39:06
Speaker 6: Mostly we’ve got Nate, Jannis, and Brody tied up in second place. I guess that wouldn’t be tied up in second, right, how does that work against and second? Okay, great, they’re all tied up in second with six and Randall is still a point ahead with seven points.
00:39:17
Speaker 2: Question ten topic is cooking.
00:39:20
Speaker 3: This is a good one.
00:39:21
Speaker 1: I prefer two point leads going into question ten.
00:39:24
Speaker 2: This inflammatory arthritis used to be called the disease of Kings because it was common among well off individuals who eat a lot of red meat.
00:39:34
Speaker 1: You got this, am I a King of the Hill fan?
00:39:37
Speaker 14: No, I didn’t know this comes up on it’s the whole plot of what I would imagine that it must be Bill, Bobby, Bobby even better.

Speaker 2: To get it?
00:40:22
Speaker 9: I’m not.
00:40:23
Speaker 2: I’m just trying to give having access to resources. That’s what a well off individual would be here because you know the disease of kings. I’m sure I do. Is everybody ready? Yeah, go ahead and reveal your answers. Max and Alex do not have an answer. The rest of the room says gouts. They got it. The correct answer is gout. Gout causes pain and swelling in your joints, including knees, ankles, elbows, and hands, but is most commonly felt in your big toe. Causes include genetics, medication side effects, and diet. Cleveland Clinic says certain foods increase your risk of gout, including game meat, organ meat, and seafood.

00:41:24
Speaker 11: Oh?
