Speaker 2 (00:10):
Welcome to Me Trivia, the only game show where conservation
always wins. I'm your host, Spencer new Arthan. Today we're
joined by Jannis Poutellis, Ryan Callahan, Mackenzie elm Quist, Randall Williams,
Maddy Layman, Seth Morris and Hunter Spencer. This is a
ten round quiz show with questions from Mead Theater's four
verticals which are hunting, Fishing, conservation and cooking, and there

(00:31):
is a prize. Meat eater will donate five hundred dollars
to the conservation organization of the winners choosing for the
start of the week. This week we're looking at our
best performers in the hunting category for those who have
been to a minimum of five shows. The leader in
the pack, Do you want to make a prediction? And
who has Who's our best player in the hunting category

(00:51):
Randall Brody also.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
Going to say Brody.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
The leader of the pack is Brody, who gets seventy
three percent of hunting questions right. That's That's followed by
Randall at sixty seven percent, Hunter at sixty four percent,
Jiannis at sixty percent, Steve at fifty five percent, cal
at fifty two percent and Mark Kenyon at fifty percent.

(01:16):
They are our only players who get more than half
of their hunting questions correct. Brody though seventy three percent,
three out of four hunting.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
I think we could do a thing where we just
don't mentioned Brody unless he's here.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Oh about that.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
Interesting, you've broken the rule multiple times. Here's our zero
percenter question of the week, which tests how much knowledge
players have retained from previous games previous games. This question
was from episode three fifty seven. The topic was biology,
and nobody got it right. It was also the second
ever time that we had a zero percenter on a
multiple choice question. Here it is, according to a nineteen

(01:54):
eighty one study in the Journal of Mammology, what North
American mammal has the most color variations? Was it black bear,
fox squirrel, eastern cottontail rabbit, or red fox. I know
that Hunter knows this, so we're going to let someone
else answer. What do you think the answer is? Which
one of those has the most color variations? Fox squirrel,
red fox? Fox squirrel was right. Nobody got it right

(02:17):
the day that we played, though, they said fox squirrels
are commonly found in gray, silver, brown, cream, red, beige,
and black, and that Florida alone has six distinct colors
of fox squirrel. Well, it was a total like twenty
four or five, I don't remember. I think they had
a specific number, but they talked about how you can
have like the dorsal hairs can be a different color,

(02:38):
they can have a different color tail. Sometimes their heads
are even a little bit different. But the most diverse
in North America for mammals.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
The only reason I got that right is because I
knew that no one got it right previously, so I
just went with.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
The eastern cottontail rabbit. That could be a bad answer, too, Yeah,
you said that one. We have some housekeeping to get to.
In a previous game of trivia, we had a question
about states with the most tornadoes. This prompted someone in
the room to ask what the boundaries of Tornado Alley are,
which it turns out there are none. Tornado Alley is
a loosely defined area that stretches as far south as Texas,

(03:14):
to as far north as North Dakota, to as far
west as Wyoming, and to as far east as Ohio.
Most agree that the primary alley is the Great Plains,
but new research suggests this is shifting east. Since nineteen
seventy nine, there have been fewer twisters in the heart
of Tornado Alley and more tornadoes in places such as Tennessee, Mississippi,

(03:35):
and Arkansas. This has inspired meteorologists to create the nickname
Dixie Alley, which refers to the Mississippi Valley and Tennessee
Valley where tornadoes are prevalent. Cal have you how many
tornadoes have you experienced in Montana?

Speaker 5 (03:49):
I've seen funnel clouds.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Okay, I mean that's the closest threat.

Speaker 6 (03:54):
Oh yeah, absolutely, about Nadho.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
You lived in Idaho for a little bit.

Speaker 5 (03:57):
No, no, not my neck of the woods.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
Kind of miss having that little threat of severe weather
living out here.

Speaker 5 (04:05):
It's amazing when you see one, right like, oh that
there's no mistaking what it is.

Speaker 6 (04:10):
That's neat.

Speaker 5 (04:11):
But yeah, I don't need to feel the power.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
We didn't see the funnel cloud.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
But we were canoeing the breaks one time and had
a crazy storm and we had to pull off the
river like four or five times, and lightning and thunder
and all that. And when we got out, we went
to the bar and they're like, oh, you guys were
out in the tornado, and it would have been a
lot more fun had we been able to say we
saw it. But apparently we were in the tornado. You
were the tornado.

Speaker 5 (04:33):
Yeah, water spouts seemed like water spouts, you know, four
pack andy and stuff. They exposed bodies. Those are impressive too.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
Eastern Washington. They must be like the dust Devil capital
of the world. Those things are crazy. They're everywhere I
had and we were driving through. I had to point
out to my wife all the time, like dust devil,
dust devil. And then within like five minutes because not
unique anymore. The Shelby inext for today's round is a five,
So I'm putting us on perfect game alert. With that,

(05:01):
We're onto the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil, Yep,
that's the plot.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
I need to know what I stand everything? How's that
just tend to win everything?

Speaker 5 (05:19):
It'd be fun to put that little bit conversation in
a bunch of different contexts and be like, which one
is the most appropriate?

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Which conversation the what do I stand when? Question one?
The topic is haunting and has always this is multiple choice.
Which of these animals has the highest minimum score in
the Pope and Young Record books is it a typical
Colombian blacktail, deer, Canada, moose, Alaska, brown bear, or rocky

(05:52):
mountain goat. Which of these animals has the highest minimum
score in the Pope and Young record books.

Speaker 6 (06:02):
Your four choices, so let's just say it, the four choices.
If the minimum for those four was one inch, two inch,
three inch, and four inch, you would want us to
write down the one that has four inches, one that
has four inches.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
The highest minimum score. Your four choices are a typical
Colombian black tail, deer, Canada, moose, Alaska, brown bear, rocky
mountain goat.

Speaker 5 (06:27):
And we're just doing the boring version of this where
you just right.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
We need to time travel again here, cal this episode
is coming out before we have an episode where we
put a new twist on it. We do not score
the game by one point at a time. We do
something a little bit differently, and that will come out here.

Speaker 7 (06:46):
Let's not reference the winners or losers of the creator.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Rift in the space time continuum.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Which of these animals that are listening to this minimum
score in the Pope and Young record books typical Colombian blacktail, deer, Canada, moose, Alaska,
brown bear, rocky mountain goat. Does everybody have an answer?
Go ahead and reveal your answers with Seth saying moose,

(07:15):
Cal saying typical Columbia blacktail hunter sang blast tail, Maddie
sang Alaska brown bear. Mackenzie sang Alaska brown bear, Yanni
saying moose. Randall saying moose. The correct answer is moose.

Speaker 6 (07:32):
But this is so typical you.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
Folks got it right. A an Alaska brown bear minimum
score is twenty, A rocky mountain goat is forty, a
typical Colombian blacktail deer is ninety five, and a Canada
moose is one thirty five. The Pope and Young world
record Canada moose was two hundred and twenty two inches
and it was killed in nineteen eighty eight in Quebec.

(07:55):
The world record velvet Canada moose was one hundred and
sixty eight inches and was killed in two thousand and
three in Alberta.

Speaker 5 (08:02):
So are you just saying like, was this question the
biggest number? Yes, and so it didn't matter per species.
I was thinking you were asking if you wanted to
go get an easy p and y record this one,

(08:22):
if you just draw the tag and shoot it with
an arrow, you will be in the Pope and Young
record books.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
Now we said the highest minimum score. The way they
list their scores is the minimum score to get in
for a typical white tail is one twenty five. So
we're looking at the highest minimum which I.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Think you're thinking of the most entries.

Speaker 5 (08:42):
Easiest entries, right, So like like you kill an antelope
with your bow. Uh, it's pretty damn easy to get
a Pope and Young antelope.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
In that case, Cal, I think you still would have
been wrong because the Alaska brown bears are twenty and
the Columbia Blacktails in ninety five. I think the room
on UD stood. We're gonna move on question two.

Speaker 5 (09:04):
I am not a part of the room, or I was.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
I got another version of that question where a goat
was the right answer.

Speaker 6 (09:10):
Okay, I'm just joking. Question too.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
The topic is biology. This next great question comes to
us via Ryan Bates. This cavity nester is the only
duck in North America that produces two broods in one year.
Yanni with a very cartoonish response, He said, a ya

(09:34):
ya ya when he heard the question topic is biology.
This cavity nester is the only duck in North America
that produces two broods in one year. Maddie, you seem confident.
Do you have this one right? No? Okay, a duck
name that I know.

Speaker 5 (09:53):
I am confident about naming a duck.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
This cavity Nester is the only duck in North America
that produced his two broods in one year. Does everybody
have an answer? Randall, I do, go ahead and reveal
your answers. We have Seth saying wood duck, cal saying
wood duck, Hunter saying Spoonbill, Maddie saying Mallard, Mackenzie saying

(10:18):
ruddy duck, Yiannis saying wood duck, Randall saying tundra swan.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
I Spencer les questions about thunder swans.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
He wanted he wanted to poke at me so terribly
that he went with something that wasn't even a duck,
despite I was gonna get daph duck. The correct answer
is wood duck. A few folks got it. A wood
duck will produce six to fifteen eggs each time. In
the North, they only have one brood per year, but

(10:50):
in the South they'll sometimes produce two broods each year.
One study found that they're more likely to have a
second brood in years where the nesting season is his longest,
and that the first nesting always has more eggs.

Speaker 5 (11:03):
That's where they get that saying about Southern ducks. You
know they're a little more promiscuous.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
Okay, did you know that one cal they'll kick out
two broods a year sometimes?

Speaker 6 (11:13):
I did you did?

Speaker 2 (11:15):
I think some of our other players they will.

Speaker 6 (11:16):
They kick out a second one if the first one
is successful.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
I think so, so they can.

Speaker 6 (11:22):
Have two successful bruises.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
I think they're learning a lot about It's only like
twenty percent of them, even in the South that will
do the second brood. Question three, The topic is public lands.
What California National Park shares its name with a Toyota
sport utility vehicle? Randall seems to have it. Cal Yanni

(11:44):
and Hunter are joining them with answers. Is the question again?
What California National Park shares its name with a Toyota
sport utility vehicle? Kenzie is trying to think of all
the national parks she knows in California.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
How many can you think of?

Speaker 3 (12:01):
Well, I'm just thinking about Toyotas.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
Oh, okay, going that route instead. Maybe that's a better
way to come up with the right answers. You can
take two ways to get there. Think of the nations
in California or the SUVs that you know what? California
National Park shares its name with a Toyota sport utility vehicle. Yanni,
do you have this one right?

Speaker 6 (12:25):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (12:27):
I'm blinking right now, like so hard.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
Sam, Cal do you have this one right?

Speaker 5 (12:33):
I have a Toyota written down?

Speaker 2 (12:35):
Okay, Cal, you ever owned an SUV in your life?

Speaker 3 (12:39):
Oh? I know that was no suv?

Speaker 8 (12:42):
I did.

Speaker 5 (12:43):
I had a Toyota truck.

Speaker 6 (12:47):
I just want to blurt out Toyota model names right now.

Speaker 5 (12:51):
When I was hiking through what were you doing hiking
through Corolla for hyaking?

Speaker 6 (13:00):
I didn't know if that if you're hiking or kayaking? Oh,
it was just.

Speaker 5 (13:04):
I've been mentally abused talking about things so many times
in this game.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
TRD off Road Package National Park.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Seth, you think you have a better chance at thinking
of the SUVs or the California National Parks? You have
no answer right now? Definitely, Well, m I don't know
everybody ready, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (13:25):
Seth used to be a Toyota man.

Speaker 8 (13:28):
Yeah, but they won't named after.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
Is everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers. Yes,
Seth without an answer, cal and Hunter saying Sequoya. Maddie
without an answer, Mackenzie, and Jannis and Randall all saying Sequoya.
They got it.

Speaker 8 (13:47):
That makes me feel better. I thought it was gonna
be something very obvious.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Correct answer, Sekoya.

Speaker 5 (13:52):
Doesn't it just sound like.

Speaker 6 (13:56):
How many words are out there that have all vowels included?

Speaker 2 (14:02):
I don't know, Yanni, that's a there's probably a good
word for words like that. Toyota chose the name Sequoya
because those are the biggest trees in the world, and
this is the biggest SUV in their lineup. Sequoia National
Park has been around since eighteen ninety. It was our
second national park and was created to protect the tree
that it's named after. Question four, The topic is gear.

(14:25):
This next great question comes to his via Daniel Kraus.
What's the term that describes the distance between your eye
and the lens on a pair of binoculars?

Speaker 9 (14:36):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (14:39):
Topic is gear? What's the term that describes the distance
between your eye and the lens on a pair of binoculars? Hunter?
Do you have this one right?

Speaker 8 (14:53):
Hope?

Speaker 2 (14:53):
So, caln Randall seem confident as well.

Speaker 6 (14:56):
Seth.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Do you have this one right?

Speaker 6 (15:00):
M hmm, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (15:02):
I mean yeah, I have no idea, Yanni, I believe so.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
Used to host a whole dang podcast. Do you think
you ever said this term in your days of hosting?

Speaker 6 (15:15):
No? Okay, did not cover this topic.

Speaker 5 (15:17):
It's a term.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
What's the term that describes the distance between your eye
and the lens on a pair of binoculars?

Speaker 8 (15:25):
And the term is it just binoculars? You could just
work for a scope too.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
I can give you any hints, No, hens, Amanda, what
inspired that little Well?

Speaker 1 (15:40):
You know, I'm just trying to be more open and
honest about myself. And the truth is I like to sing.

Speaker 2 (15:47):
I think I think our audience learned that when you
started singing a sea shanty from Jaws. Phil, I'm going
to your musical tomorrow night. Is it a musical? And
I keep I misidentifying your music? Well, tomorrow, gonna be
there tomorrow, that's right, Hunter going to.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
It's a screwball comedy from the nineteen thirties.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
To talk about it really well.

Speaker 7 (16:15):
It's I know, tomorrow's pretty packed. I think there's still
at least a handful of seats at every show. But
it's it's it's tight because I know, I think because
your whole family even got bad seats.

Speaker 6 (16:24):
What's that?

Speaker 5 (16:25):
Because your whole family came into town.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Phil, you said there's no bad, no bad seats in
that theater.

Speaker 7 (16:31):
Well, oh yeah, I mean bad. It's it's all relish
sure answer.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
Here we go time traveling again. Is everybody ready? Go
ahead and reveal your answers. We have Seth saying I relief,
cal saying parallax, Hunter saying I relief, Maddie without an answer,
Mackenzie saying relief, Giannis saying I relief, Randall saying parallax.
The correct answer is I relief. We'll give it to

(16:56):
Mackenzie for just saying relief. I don't think it's paralyze,
so I could google that to see if that's the
same thing.

Speaker 5 (17:02):
But I mean sounds better.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
I think it is.

Speaker 5 (17:07):
Focusing right yeah, well yep, but that's what it's adjusting for.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Right between the distance between your eye and the lens.
I don't think so. I relief is important for seeing
clearly through binos. Too close and you'll have kidney shaped
shadows around the image. Too far and you won't see
the full image. This is measured in millimeters and is
usually between between ten and twenty on hunting binoculars.

Speaker 5 (17:33):
Yeah, for binoculars.

Speaker 6 (17:34):
So it's like, yeah, it would have been better if
he said yeah. Is focusing your crosshairs to the distance
of the target right so you can see both clearly?

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Question five the topic is fishing. Whatever your pickup is
facing west, you're backing up a boat with your left
hand at the six o'clock position on the steering wheel.
You want a boat to go north to which direction
should you move your hand north?

Speaker 1 (18:05):
Cardinal direction?

Speaker 9 (18:06):
Right?

Speaker 2 (18:06):
You really got to follow along here. There are multiple
correct answers to this. Here it is again, your pickup
is facing west. You're backing up a boat with your
left hand at the six o'clock position on the steering wheel.
You want the boat to go north to which direction
should you move your hand?

Speaker 6 (18:28):
Are we assuming that when your pickup is facing west.

Speaker 9 (18:31):
It's straight, that the trailer and boat it's all straight,
is all lined up, it's it's as straight as it
could possibly be.

Speaker 5 (18:38):
Yannie, Okay, you want a fun fact?

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Maybe is it going to give out a hint?

Speaker 5 (18:43):
No, it's not, But yes, this came up recently. I
got a little undercover opportunity to go drive the back
end of a ladder truck on like a full blown
fire truck, you know, ladder track undercover fireman explain that to.

Speaker 1 (18:59):
Me he was pretending to be a fireman.

Speaker 5 (19:02):
I put a fireman hat on and went out with
a bunch of firemen and got to drive the rear
end of the truck, and holy cow, was it a
lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
Okay, good, here's here's the question again.

Speaker 5 (19:15):
When you're an obstacle course, really pay attention here.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
I just had to draw it out.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Your pickup is facing west. You're backing up a boat
with your left hand at the six o'clock position on
the steering wheel. You want the boat to go north
to which direction should you move your hand?

Speaker 8 (19:37):
Yeah? Things throwing me off as I won't have my
hand at six o'clock.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
No, really, where would you put your hand?

Speaker 6 (19:43):
Twelve? Okay, me too, Spencer.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
You would also go twelve or you'd go six.

Speaker 5 (19:50):
This is the easy way to teach people, though.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Yeah, is everybody ready?

Speaker 3 (19:54):
That's how I learned.

Speaker 6 (19:55):
No, no, no, okay, sorry too much jib or jiber.
I can't write at the same time.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
To read the prompt one more time. Is your last
chance to hear it if you're playing along at home
and not watching on YouTube. Phil has the this is
an American. Your pickup is facing west. You're backing up
a boat with your left hand at the six o'clock
position on the steering wheel. You want the boat to
go north to Which direction should you move your hand?

(20:22):
Is everybody ready? Randall?

Speaker 3 (20:27):
Ye?

Speaker 7 (20:30):
What?

Speaker 5 (20:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (20:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (20:33):
This room does that to people.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Mackenzie at racing Are you ready?

Speaker 3 (20:36):
No, I'm not a racing I can prove I can
prove it. I just I mess up when I turn
it over and you want it to be legible.

Speaker 4 (20:43):
To be clear, you're sitting in the driver's seat.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Are you driving the weird.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
Wearing?

Speaker 8 (20:54):
Are you wearing shoes?

Speaker 3 (20:56):
On?

Speaker 7 (20:56):
One clarification I have?

Speaker 6 (20:57):
Is it?

Speaker 7 (20:57):
Do you want the boat to go north or face north?

Speaker 2 (21:00):
You want the boat to go north? Is everybody ready?
Do you want like a clockwise or do you want
multiple ways to come up with the correct answer? Go
ahead and reveal your answers. We have set saying right
or counterclockwise, cal saying left or north, Hunters saying right.

(21:28):
Mackenzie saying counterclockwise, be honest saying counterclockwise. Randall's saying right
or counter the correct There are three potential correct answers.

Speaker 5 (21:42):
You move your hand you want the boat to go.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
The three correct answers are right, north, or counterclockwise. Now
cal put conflicting answers. We're not going to give it
to him. He put that you move your hand left
and north, which is not How.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
Do you have a hard time having the left hand
at the six o'clock And then.

Speaker 4 (22:06):
That's why I was wondering, if you're driving a Japanese.

Speaker 5 (22:15):
If you're facing west.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Now cow gave out a hint, saying that this is
the beginner way to back up. Placing your hand at
the bottom of the steering wheel while backing up a
trailer is one of the easiest ways to master this chore.
Simply put, if you want the trailer to go left,
then move your hand left or clockwise. If you want
the trailer to go right, then move your hand right

(22:37):
or counterclockwise. Had some extra information there. It doesn't man,
if you matter if you're holding the steering wheel with
your left or right hand. I don't know if that
threw anybody off. That was question five. Phil, you're between
your legs like a center if you're wearing glasses on
the autumn equalox.

Speaker 3 (22:59):
Oh did you guys see the what was it called?

Speaker 6 (23:02):
Yeah, the eclipse?

Speaker 3 (23:04):
The eclipse. We're out past hunting and I saw it
and it was pretty cool.

Speaker 6 (23:07):
Oh about that.

Speaker 5 (23:09):
It didn't really come through.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
You have to do like the thing where you like
this and look through your fingers at it.

Speaker 8 (23:15):
I shot an antlope during the eclipse.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
Like right when it was happening.

Speaker 5 (23:20):
Yeah, damn, did you wait till the clips?

Speaker 1 (23:23):
He'll just stalk in.

Speaker 7 (23:24):
I saw that picture. I thought it looked like kind
of dark looking.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
Yeah, yeah, fell We're halfway through the game of ta
never happened again.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
It was just a cool filter.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Give us a scoreboard update.

Speaker 7 (23:34):
You got Maddie with zero points, Cal has two Randalls,
Mackenzie and Hunter I'll have three, Seth has four, and
Yannis has a perfect game.

Speaker 2 (23:45):
No way to tell. No question six good questions here?
Question six The topic is hunting. This next great question
comes to a via Justin Schmidt. Who sells the legendary

(24:08):
A five shotgun?

Speaker 8 (24:10):
My god, it's my dream gun?

Speaker 2 (24:12):
Mmmm? Who sells the legendary A five shotgun. Randall and
Hunter and Seth are all confident? Cal and Yanni are
joining them?

Speaker 3 (24:26):
Is it.

Speaker 5 (24:28):
Retail?

Speaker 2 (24:35):
You can catch me on a technicality there if you
wrote down your own name's Glad.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
Steve wasn't here for that.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
Now, Yanni, why do you prefer hand at the twelve
o'clock when backing up a boat.

Speaker 5 (24:47):
Because you look like an adult?

Speaker 6 (24:52):
It just is more comfortable.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Here's the question again, who sells the legendary A five shotgun?
Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We
have Seth and Cal. What's that say? Cal Browning, Cal
Sang Browning, Seth sang Browning, Hunter sang Browning, Maddy Sang Reading,
Mackenzie sang Weatherby, Giannis Sang, Bretta Randall saying Browning. The

(25:19):
correct answer is Browning. Yanni lost his perfect game. The
A five, which is short for Auto five, was the
first mass produced semi auto shotgun in the world. It
was designed by John Browning in eighteen ninety eight, patented
in nineteen hundred, and produced continually until nineteen ninety eight.

(25:40):
It's known for its distinctive high rear end, which earned
it the nickname humpback. Question seven The topic is cooking.

Speaker 8 (25:49):
You sold one?

Speaker 2 (25:49):
N yeah, and then what should have done?

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Profited?

Speaker 2 (25:55):
And then buy a new one by a wedding.

Speaker 4 (25:58):
Ring talking to the guy who can't use paypaller Venmo
for selling too many guns on the internet.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
Question question seven, the topic is cooking. What real life
restaurant chain was created by Forrest Gump after he bought
a fishing boat?

Speaker 3 (26:14):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (26:17):
What real life restaurant chain was created by Forrest Gump
after he bought a ship? After he bought a fishing boat?

Speaker 6 (26:24):
I could give you at.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
The room. Seems pretty confident minus mackenzie. Maybe Maddie, do
you have this one right?

Speaker 3 (26:35):
I don't think so. Okay, I can see the billboard
for it.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
And we have you seen the movie? Oh?

Speaker 3 (26:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Has everyone seen the movie?

Speaker 1 (26:50):
One of my favorites.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
What real life restaurant chain was created by Forrest Gump
after he bought a fishing boat? Is everybody ready?

Speaker 3 (26:59):
No? I'm just making something up, Browning A five.

Speaker 6 (27:07):
We used to have competition, not really competitions, but amongst
a bunch of fishing guides. If you couldn't back a
trailer up very well, then you're poked at a lot.
I remember some of the younger guys or senior guys
that couldn't back traders up. They would get they would
get sensitive about it. Did you experience that too, Cal?

Speaker 5 (27:27):
Oh, it screws everything up like it's the hallmark of
being a professional at the river access.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
It's a guides borrow one. K. I mean you don't
really have much else.

Speaker 6 (27:38):
You don't, You don't.

Speaker 8 (27:40):
I've seen some disasters at the boat.

Speaker 5 (27:42):
Oh, it's amazing.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, it's everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Seth saying Bubba Gump shrimp Company, Cal saying
Bubba Gump. Hunter sang Bubba Gump, Maddie saying Popeyes, Mackenzie
saying Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, and Randall saying Bubba Gump
Shrimp Company. They got it. The correct answer is Bubba

(28:03):
Gump Shrimp Company.

Speaker 5 (28:05):
Do you have to say shrimp company.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
Yeah, we'll give it to you. You just said Bubba Gump.
In the nineteen ninety four movie, Forrest buys a shrimping
boat with the earnings he made while playing ping pong.
He makes Lieutenant Dan his first mate in their business.
Bubba Gump Shrimp Company takes off after being the only
boat to survive Hurricane Carmen. According to Bubba Gump Shrimp Company,

(28:27):
they're the only casual restaurant chain in the world that's
based on a motion picture property. Today there are thirty
four Bubba Gump Shrimp companies in eight countries.

Speaker 5 (28:37):
Because I don't want to know if you started it,
if the food's good.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Right, because Forrest Gump, Oh, has anyone ever eaten it? One?
I never know.

Speaker 5 (28:46):
It's one of the only crappy It's one of many
crappy food options in the airport in CanCon.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
I was gonna say that's where I saw. I literally,
it's right at security. They have that.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
Horrible Yeah, give us a real horrible that's your That'd
be the headline.

Speaker 7 (29:02):
Horrible Yeah.

Speaker 5 (29:04):
I'd be like, if you want to throw money away.

Speaker 6 (29:06):
Guys, you're did you get tripped?

Speaker 4 (29:08):
You're really killing our odds of getting like a nice
gift package from public.

Speaker 5 (29:13):
Maybe's beer.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
The topic is woodsmanship. This next great question comes with
via Charlie McDonald.

Speaker 9 (29:23):
If you were to mate, the three sides of the
fire triangle are heat, fuel, and blank.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
The three sides of the fire triangle are heat, fuel
and blank. Our room is very confident this may be
the one hundred of this game. Okay, Maddy recoiled a
little bit when I said that, now, Randall before. The
reason I phrased it as selling the shotgun, which, as

(30:00):
you pointed out it is probably incorrect, is because for
a while someone else made it for them. I think
it was what is it, the Remington Model eleven. It's
the exact same, so that's why I don't remember who
it was, but someone else was making it for Browning
for a bit.

Speaker 1 (30:17):
Real pro move there.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
Then you know you've pulled the wool over my eyes.
Is everybody ready? I think, so go ahead and reveal
your answers. We have Seth saying humidity, cal saying air
after saying oxygen, Maddie saying.

Speaker 5 (30:33):
I had changed mine from oxygen.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
Mackenzie, Joannis, and Randall all saying oxygen. The correct answer
is oxygen or air. The fire triangle is meant to
illustrate what the three mandatory ingredients are to create fire.
The fire triangle is a term that's used by organizations
like the National Park Service, US Forest Service, and National

(30:56):
Fire Protection Association, but some groups have the fire tetrahedron
tetrahedron instead, which adds combustion or chemical reaction as the
fourth element. Caw, the guy who got to go be
an undercover fireman couldn't come up with the third side
or the guy who the guy who was fought forest

(31:21):
fire said humidity. That's next level. You're going for the
five sided.

Speaker 6 (31:25):
We just tried to put him out.

Speaker 5 (31:26):
You know, we weren't trying to get him get him going.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
We have two questions left. Give us a scoreboard up,
dare Well.

Speaker 7 (31:34):
This is exciting. The only player who's not left in
the running is Maddie. But we have Yeah, I'm sorry,
it's not exciting for you. We have the Kenzie and
Cal have five points, Seth and Randall and Hunter all
have six, and the Honis is in first place with
seven points.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
This is a personal record.

Speaker 5 (31:54):
Question nine did you only you only slipped up on
the browning? So far?

Speaker 6 (31:58):
So far?

Speaker 2 (31:58):
And how close were you to put browning there? Yannie?

Speaker 6 (32:01):
Not close all?

Speaker 2 (32:02):
Question nine conviction letters. The topic is conservation. This invasive
mollusc with zigzag stripes was discovered in the United States
in nineteen eighty eight.

Speaker 5 (32:16):
Name its cousin.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
The room is pretty confident. Topic is conservation. This invasive
mollusc with zigzag stripes was discovered in the United States
in nineteen eighty eight. Without giving me hints, Seth, have
you ever come across one of these? Uh?

Speaker 8 (32:38):
I think I have?

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Maybe? Okay, anyone else count one of these? Is everybody ready?

Speaker 5 (32:45):
I was fishing on the Great Lakes, one of the
Great Lakes, and you'd snag clusters.

Speaker 3 (32:54):
Oh okay, I'll.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
Go ahead and oak Hunter, Spencer, are you ready? Go
ahead and revere your answer. We have Seth saying zebra muscle,
cal saying zebra hunter. Was that going to be a
z or? Is that a question? Question? Maddie and Mackenzie
and Yannis and Randall saying zebra muscle? They got it.

(33:16):
The correct answer is zebra muscles. Zebra muscles most likely
arrived here in the ballast water of what was discharged
into the Great Lakes from European ships. They have quickly
become one of the worst invaders in the country. The
biggest problems they cause are out competing native muscles and
clogging up water intakes for power plants and irrigation. Question

(33:39):
ten nothing from the leaderboard change did it fill?

Speaker 8 (33:42):
Correct?

Speaker 6 (33:43):
Well?

Speaker 7 (33:44):
Uh?

Speaker 8 (33:44):
Well?

Speaker 7 (33:44):
Hunter, yeah, Hunter no longer in the running. We've got Yannis, Randall,
and Seth left, and Giannis has eight. Randall and Seth
have seven.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
Question ten. The topic is woodsmanship. This is our listener
question of the Week, which was won by Brendan Compton
for sending this great question. Brennan is going to get
a board game signed by the med Eater crew. If
you want to win our listener Question of the Week,
then send your question to trivia at the meadeater dot com.
This tree with a color in its name is the
most widely distributed conifer in the Eastern United States. This

(34:20):
is according to the USDA. This is a statement they made.
This tree with a color in its name is the
most widely distributed conifer in the Eastern United States. Yanni
looks satisfied with his answer. Yanni, is this going to
pull you away from the competition?

Speaker 6 (34:37):
I have an answer written down. I Am now going
to try to think of other conifers with colors in
their name.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
Okay, Seth, do you know this one?

Speaker 8 (34:47):
I'm torn between two?

Speaker 6 (34:49):
Okay, I went with my gut.

Speaker 2 (34:54):
We're down to Yanni and Randall, and is it Seth,
Seth or the player left? We would need Yanni to
get this wrong, and Randall and seth to get this right,
to go to overtime. Here's the question again. This tree
with a color in its name is the most widely
distributed conifer in the Eastern United States. This was a

(35:16):
statement made by the u s d. A. Is everybody ready?

Speaker 3 (35:22):
It doesn't matter for me though, you're.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
Going for a personal best Mackenzie, I want to hit it.

Speaker 3 (35:28):
Really?

Speaker 2 (35:35):
Is everyone ready? Yeah, I'll tell you what happened. Yanni
just revealed his answer to Randall, and Randall said.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
Hmmm, well, we have different answers.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
Okay, that's good drama.

Speaker 6 (35:46):
Let me you got ahead and reveal your answers.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
We have set saying white pine, Kel saying blue spruce,
Hunter saying white oak, Maddie saying blue spruce. Mackenzie without
an answer, Yanna is saying white pine, Randall saying blue spruce.
The correct answer is red cedar. Nobody red cedar or

(36:13):
juniper could say either. Nobody got it right, and Yanni
is our winners. This is according to the USDA. The
range of the red cedar has considerably extended, especially into
the Great Plains. It has the ability to grow under

(36:34):
extreme conditions in a variety of soils and can quickly
take over an area. Their numbers were historically controlled by fire,
but due to a lack of burns, they've been one
of the most abundant trees on the continent. Red cedar
Are they salt cedar too?

Speaker 5 (36:51):
Is it the same or not the same?

Speaker 2 (36:53):
There's something weird with Like cedars aren't native to North America,
so this is technically a red juniper. It's native to
the continent, but everyone just calls it a red seedar.

Speaker 6 (37:02):
Got it? People use them for white tail habitat you're asking.

Speaker 2 (37:08):
No, people try to eliminate that most times. So well,
at least where I'm from in South Dakota. They can
like really take over a pasture, so the folks will
do their best to get rid of them.

Speaker 8 (37:16):
There's I know some folks that have used them for
like thermal cover and stuff for white tails.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
They create good cover, but almost too good of covers.

Speaker 5 (37:26):
Sometimes sinks or straws or whatever. They suck up too
much water. What do they look like a juniper?

Speaker 3 (37:35):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (37:35):
Okay, yeah, a lot of them.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
I think a lot of them end up being more
shrubby thanky.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
They're not like tall.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Do you have any red Wisconsin.

Speaker 6 (37:45):
We do not.

Speaker 1 (37:46):
You're making me feel like I'm really far behind on
all these.

Speaker 2 (37:49):
We have a lot of white pine. Yanni, you get
to choose where the five hundred dollars donations from meat
Eater goes. What's it gonna be.

Speaker 6 (37:57):
I'm gonna stick with the one I voted for last time,
which is the Coloraddens for Responsible Wildlife Management, who are
spearheading the fight against Colorado ballot Initiative ninety one, I believe,
which is the they're going to try to ban trophy
hunting and they're sort of trying to decide how they're

(38:19):
going to define trophy hunting right now. So I urge
everybody to kick down some cash to Colorado. Coloradden's for
Responsible Wildlife Management because they need all that they can get.
We heard that the opposition has a million bucks per
month to spend over the next year to pass it
in their favor.

Speaker 5 (38:40):
Somebody needs to get proactive in that state and just
come up with a bill that makes ballot box biology illegal.

Speaker 6 (38:46):
Yes, I believe that that's being discussed.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
And a lot of reasons not until I get but Yanni,
you personally said it hit home because of the Mountain
lion hunting aspect of.

Speaker 6 (38:55):
It, right, Yeah, I mean that it does there, and
I spent I lived for a long time in Colorado,
so it hits home on that aspect as well. But
I think that if if you're a hunter and it
doesn't hit home, I think that you're you're being fooled.
Because we recently heard that another state official down there

(39:16):
said asked, well, if we're gonna outlaw the mountain lion
and bobcat hunting, and they've included links as well, why
are we still going to allow the trophy hunting of
black bears and bighorn sheet So you see how easy
it would be to just start lumping any sort of
animal that you like to put on your wall Randall
into this and then losing more hunting rights.

Speaker 5 (39:38):
Or freezer in my garage.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
So there's there's Randall's meat is in your garage and
your freezer.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
Yes yeah, yeah, I don't have room for two.

Speaker 6 (39:48):
Freezers, and yeah I don't.

Speaker 5 (39:50):
I don't get to enjoy the fuzzy parts, just the
freezer taking up space in my garage.

Speaker 2 (39:55):
Well done, you oni five hundred dollars going their way.
It's next time for or meat eat or trivia the
only game show where conservation always wins.
