Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:07):
This mediated podcast. Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only
game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer
new Orthon. Today we're joined by special guest and photojournalists
Seth Cantoner. In addition to Seth, we also have Steve
Joannice cal Brodie Krin, and the newlywed Seth Morris. Now,
Seth Cantoner, how you feel about trivia? Ken't standard? I

(00:30):
never know what you people are talking about? Really? What
about like generic trivia? That would being like Jeopardy? You
dig that not at all? Okay, I bet you'll do
better than what you think any other question? Are you
sure you want to stick around? Pretty much? Okay? Now,
if you're not familiar, this is a ten round quiz

(00:52):
show with questions born out of meat Eaters for verticals
which you're hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. And there is
a prize. Meat Eater will donate five hundred dollars to
the conservation organization of the winners choosing. Now, last time
I told you we're going to reveal a new trivia
stat each time we play. Today, we're going to look
at each person's average score per game. Now, before I

(01:14):
reveal this data. Who do you guys think averages the
most right answers per round of trivia? Be honest, Brody?
Any other guesses? Well, I thought you kind of when
you're like percentage of right questions? Last time we like now,
last time we talked about the winning percentage. So who

(01:36):
wins games? All? Right? Here we go. In first place
is Brodie. Brody averages six point six three correct answers
per game, which gives him a fairly demanding lead compared
to everyone else. That's followed by Steve at five point
eight eight, Janice at five point eight zero, Hayden at
five point seven five, Sean at five point to Hunter

(01:59):
at five point zero, Cal at four point eight six,
Chester at four point seven nine, Seth Morris at four
point to five. Trivia guests average three point five three,
and care In at three point to three. So the
top three, The top three are Brodie, Steve, and Janice. Yeah,

(02:20):
but doesn't count in the win loss column. Man, you're
because you can consistently start score good, but just never
be a winner. Is a regular season team. When you
talk professional sports, you have regular season teams and playoff teams.
You're always out there, but there's always one person with
more wins than me. That's right now, we are going
to introduce a new trivia rinkles well, this guy named Steve.

(02:46):
Also this week, we're going to introduce a new trivia
wrinkle for listeners that starts right now. Here's what it is.
Each episode, I'm going to declare one listener question of
the week which will win them a prize. This is
to reward those folks who send great trivia questions and
help keep this show going. If you want a chance
to win our listener question of the week, send your
question to Trivia at the Meat Eater dot com. This

(03:09):
we'll get to it. When we get to that question,
we'll have a different prize each week, or like something good.
The winner this week is very much going to like
their prize. Is there anything today about questions? He screwed
up last time? I chunk of this whale bolber and
the chunk of this dried caraban. You think we get
that in the mail, because I when it gets there,
it'll be fermented right now. It's fresh now. On a

(03:31):
previous episode, we talked about the world record flathead cat
fish that was caught in Kansas, the one d and
twenty three pound cat was caught in by Ken Pauli
in Elk City Reservoir. Ken told Field and Stream that
he caught the flathead while croppy fishing with a barber
and minnow, and that he was able to land the
beheamth after it helplessly got caught in big waves that

(03:52):
were rolling into shore. But shortly after that episode aired,
someone wrote in to tell me that that's not actually
what happened at all, and what you're about here is
this person's account of how that catfish was caught, which,
if true, is a massive development because it would likely
disqualify this fish from counting in any record book. Now
remind you again, this fish is currently recognized by the

(04:13):
i g f A as the world record and by
the State of Kansas as the state record. Play the clip, Phil, Hi,
my name is Clayton Crellin, and my dad used to
work with Ken Pauli, the guy who caught the state
record flathead, and my dad got the real story about
that fish that no one else knows. Apparently, the flathead

(04:34):
was choking on a carp and dying on the surface
of the water when the guy snagged it with his
croppy rod, so he didn't really catch it on a
bomber in a minnow like the others reported. He also
told my dad that he wished he never caught the fish.
Here's why. After word got out about the giant flathead,
a photographer contacted him about getting some pictures of him

(04:56):
and the catch. Ken obliged and had a few photos taken. Eventually,
feeling stream reached out to Ken asking to use the photos,
and Ken gave them permission. But when they did, the
photographer sued Ken for thousands of dollars for not getting
his permission to use the photos. Ken lost the lawsuit

(05:16):
to the photographer and told my dad that in the
end he felt like he lost more than what the
fish was worth. Now, Steve, you talk about stories making
their own gravy, this one makes all kinds of gravy.
Oh M, that's a good story, or if that's true. Now,
I traded a lot of emails with Clayton, who you
just heard. I believe every word of it, pretty convinced

(05:37):
that what he's saying has some legitimacy. I've reached out
to I G F A to see if they've heard
this claim before, but they haven't gotten back to me,
so this won't be the last time we talked about
this story. You're gonna smoke out this guy's I have
g a record man, this guy. But this guy is
like this, he's I mean, I don't know. I mean
that's like third hand information. It is third hand from

(06:00):
his old man who heard from Yeah. That, and then
if he did get sued by the photographer, I'd rather
have him have a world record after losing that lawsuit.
I heard it keeps a sheep in his bed, you
know what I mean. That's bad information. So I didn't
catch it. Did you try reaching out to the actual

(06:22):
angler to like get his side of this? So I
tried to find Ken. I wasn't able to track him down.
I'm sure somebody's gonna reach and be like, Oh, he's
my neighbor, here's his phone number. Few kind of feel
bad about you playing that story and not getting his satisfy.
I did some other Facebook sleothing and found people that
are related to him saying similar things. But here's what

(06:42):
gives me makes me a little bit hesitant. I also
found other folks claiming that there was a snapping turtle
in the stomach of this thing that helped weigh it
down and give him the record. So so there's a
lot of things floating around out there snapping. Remember you've
been new heart. There you go the turtle. I ate

(07:04):
a couple of de cell batteries before I got eight.
I think we're gonna hear from a lot of folks
in the cat fishing community in Kansas after this whole
and they had like a host and investigative journalists. He's like,
he's like Mori Povich, who is the father who happened

(07:24):
to be a talk show host in the eighties. The
last time Steve watching talk show. And with that we
are on the meeting to trivia play the drop Phil. Look,
I need to know what I stay in to win everything.
I'm saying, just tend to win everything, suckers. Question one,

(07:53):
this will be multiple choice in the topic is gear.
So if I can see your board, Buddy, finish this night,
teen thirty four quote from outdoor writer Nash Buckingham, Um
back up, finish this nineteen thirty four quote from outdoor
writer Nash Buckingham. A blank in the hands of the

(08:15):
unskilled is one of conservation's greatest assets, is it? Bow duck?
Call fly? Rod or turkey tag Again. This is a
nineteen thirty four quote from outdoor writer Nash Buckingham. A
blank in the hands of the unskilled is one of
conservation's greatest assets. Is it bow, duck call, fly rod

(08:38):
or turkey tag. I'll tell you Nash Buckingham was probably
also an actor's name in the seventies. Give me the
four options one more time, bow, duck call, fly rod,
or turkey tag. Now Stevie said you knew it? Did
you actually know this one? No? I was joking. Okay,
that was before you gave you the question. A blank

(08:59):
in the hands of the skilled is one of constant
I'm quite confident in my answer, but I wouldn't know,
Nash Buckingham. If you're sitting in here right now, does
everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Honest saying duck call, Steve saying duck call, Whale,
Seth saying fly rod, Brody saying bo Cal saying duck call, Wallely,

(09:20):
Seth saying turkey tag, and Karin saying bow. The correct
answer is duck call, of course. It is. What he's saying,
is you're you're preventing ducks from getting killed, because but
I could also see that it could be turkey tag
in the in the hands of the unskilled. Listen to me,
don't already make the category the category this year. This

(09:44):
is where my mind was. That was slipped in there
to trick you, trick you up. Buckingham wrote that quote
in his book De Shooting This Gentleman. He was known
for his flamboyant writing style and perspective on waterfowl conservation
that was a decades ahead of this time. If you
like to hunt ducks and geese in the Mississippi Flyway,
then his books are for you. Man. If I'm at

(10:06):
a dude named Buckingham right now, I would completely write
him off, you know what I mean, I'd write him
off the duke of Yeah, I'd be like, oh, brother.
Question to the topic is conservation. This next Greek question
comes to us from Mike Stephen. If you have a
question you think is right for meata to Trivia. You
can send it to Trivia at the mediator dot com.

(10:27):
What ecological word describes the state or condition of having
become locally or regionally extinct. What ecological word describes the
state or condition of having become locally or regionally extinct.
We had some quick answers from Brody and Steve, bro

(10:48):
Neck and Neck bro right here ahead right started out
ahead the spelling don't don't give you, don't give to
winning one question, don't What ecological word describes the state
or condition of having become locally People started talking about

(11:10):
spelling stuff and pronounced the stuff that's called tips. Yeah,
but the spelling thing came from Seth, so it doesn't
really say how long the word is. You have to
spell every word, so I don't think it's a tip
going forward. You never have to spell correctly unless I
say you do. That is a tip. Does everybody have

(11:32):
an answer? Go and reveal your answers. We have Janice
saying extra pated, Steve saying extirpated, whale, Seth without an answer,
Brody saying extrapated, cal saying extirpation, while I say saying extirpated,
and Korean without an answer. The room got it. It
is extirpation or extirpated. But is it read it to
me again. I'm just worried about word word tense. What

(11:54):
ecological word describes the state or condition of having become locally.
I'll accept either. Some examples of excupation include wolves in Nebraska,
sage grouse in New Mexico, pronghorn in Minnesota, caribou and Maine,
paddle fish in Michigan, and Steve's favorite example in the world,
elk in Iowa. It also included muskox in northern and

(12:15):
in Alaska entire Alaska. I couldn't remember the word, but
I haven't written in the book I find myself and
I find myself in a situation. Now, muscots were reintroduced
from Greenland because of its hard picture. How how would
they reintroduce the muskox? Uh? They captured him um, I
think it was in Greenland and brought him by ferry

(12:36):
to the New York or somewhere over there. Karen would know.
And then they rode by train. They rode by train, Um,
I think to the West coast and we're brought to
Fairbanks and then shipped to Nunamak Island and then Northwest Alaska.
Tribute question for you. Let's hear what writer who happened

(12:57):
to write a book called The Snow Leopard wrote a
book about part of the reintroduction of muskox to Alaska.
No idea, Peter mathis do they get it? I love
throwing a tribute questions Spencer, but he never knows. We
are onto question three. The topic is cooking. According to

(13:19):
Anthony Bourdain, you should never order seafood from a restaurant
on what day of the week. According to Anthony Bourdain,
you should never order seafood from a restaurant on what
day of the week. Again, quick answers from Brody and Steve.
You've always know this, No, I've read it, but I

(13:41):
don't know it. Again, you should never order seafood from
a restaurant on what day of the include long John
Silver's any answer would work. You've got to be careful
with the day of the week questions because Cal is here,
so yeah, don't say like whatever your answer is Christmas.
Does everybody have any answer? Yanni? Yeah, Go ahead and

(14:12):
reveal your answers. We have Yanni saying Sunday, Steve saying Sunday,
Whale Seth saying Friday, Brodie saying Sunday, Cal saying Sunday,
while I Sets saying Thursday. Just In saying Sunday. Nobody
got it. The correct answer is Monday because there's nowhere.
Oh you know why, because they're getting rid of the

(14:35):
old ship to make room for the new ship. Boor
Dane gave this advice in his two thousand book Kitchen
Confidential Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly. He said that most
restaurants get their seafood on Thursday or Friday in anticipation
for the weekend, so by Monday it's already four or
five days old. Yep, yep, Seth could while I Seth

(14:57):
could have stumbled into that one just writing down random days,
but down Tuesday evening question for the topic is haunting.
This next great question comes to us from j Mill.
If you have a question you think is right for
Meat Eat to trivia, you can send it to trivia
at the meat eater dot com. Is either got to
win something not yet? I will, I will will make
a whole spectacle lot of it when we get to

(15:17):
our listener question of the week. Or did you know
our punt gun is sitting over in the on the floor. Yeah,
I thought I thought we talked about this. I can't
believe we haven't opened it up yet. All right, Chris

I got that because of a because of a hot
till someone gave accidentally shut your mom about getting right.

(17:52):
Good on you, though, Cal for picking up on that.
Smokey X str Smokey X just turned ten years old
and it set to retire this year. Smokey x I
has already been selected. He's a one year old blue
tick from the same bloodline as his predecessor. I had
North Carolina written down I until he opened his trap again. Well,

(18:14):
then we should just avoid that question. No no, because
that was like I can't do it on principle because
I have the same answer that you got, because people
need to show. You'll notice, I am never like is
it with the extra like? I never do that stuff.

(18:35):
I just so if you're quiet, Iran Iran black bears
and in Idaho with a houndsman from Smoky Mountain National Park.
And they actually had an in holding. He and his wife.
They're born and raised less than half a mile away
from each other in the holler Smoky Mountain National Park,

Tennessee named Audi Kerr. That's good. That's a good houndsman
name it is. And he was a long, lanky mountain man. Yeah,
but he didn't have cur dogs. He had what kind
of dogs? I have no idea. He had a lot
of them. He didn't want that kind of confusion. He
had a staple gun. You just go go down that
line of dogs, Ia, dining and staple and everybody back together.

(19:20):
Run the question five. The topic is public lands. Into

who leaves a privileged life to live in the Alaskan

(19:41):
wilderness where he dies of starvation. What was that man's name?
Is this the bone you're throwing to a whale? Seth
it is? I thought you're gonna ask when he's eating
that killed him? But answer everything but the son of
a Bitch's name? Man again into the wild. The book
End movie is based on a nineteen year old who

(20:03):
leaves a privileged life to live in the Alaskan wilderness
where he dies of starvation. What was that man's name? Oh?
Can I give the name he went by? I'm gonna
do that, and I to give what he I'm gonna
give what he wanted his name to be. That is
totally acceptable. M m. There's a lot of hints. Oh yeah,

But still everybody else does I do not have an answer,
Go and reveal your answers. We have a Yanni saying,
Chris McCandless, Steve saying, Alex Vader, Super Trump Mccandice Brody's
saying Chris mccasson, Christopher will I said saying, Sean and

(20:53):
Karin saying, I forget Sean Penn who directed that movie.
I think the correct answer is Chris McCandless, Alexander Supertrancer.
I just want to tell me you're not accepting Alexander
super Vote. No, Um, that was his that was his
chosen name. Are you telling people what bathroom to go into? Now?

(21:14):
Get the funk at. That's where he identified as. That's
what he identified classic film and if two thousand twenty
two has taught you anything, what you identify with is
where you're at. Spencer jas is the only one who
got that one correct. Right, you're accepting Christopher McCandless. We
also had Whale Sean, Okay, get it. I should get it.

(21:36):
If you don't half of it, if you don't accept
what there's previous examples of people getting half an answer
and getting getting If you don't accept what I wrote,
I'm gonna be so pissed. That's what he identified as
is Alexander super Tramp. I would actually lean towards giving
the act to Steve Yes, what does our guests think?
What what do you think? Would would you take that answer? No? Way?

(21:58):
I was impressed. Um, but no, he's not in charge
of the show. I'm gonna say no. First names. First
name don't get you anything in Jeopardy yeah, but you
have established on this show history McCormick. No, not McCormick, Mccathcca,

(22:21):
McCaw We're gonna go with Nollam, Brody and Cal. Okay,
can you tell last name? I got the name of
what he wanted to be called. He changed his name
to that. Len't okay, because I want you to name
for me. Phil named for me, named for me. A
famous athlete who was once on the weedies box? What

(22:42):
is their name? Now? Please? Please tell me tell me
the individual's name. I'm talking they illegally changed it, Michael Jordan's. Oh,
so it has to be legal. You wouldn't accept it
if it wasn't legal. Are you sure? Tell me the name? Phil?
What is the individual's name? Uh? Score up? No, Philip,

(23:03):
please share with me the individual's name. I think I
think the former athlete who was on a weedies box. Please, muh.
You know why you can't do it? You won't do it.
That's why I'm right now here. Because you can't say
Bruce Jenner. I think, I say why you can't say
Chris mccandles. He was Alexander super true. I think this
carries a lot of what I'm about to read from

(23:24):
his bio, it says Christopher Johnson McCandless, also known by
his pseudonym Alexander SuperTruck. I think I would give it
to boy. I want I want a trivia super fan
here to just go through and come up for our host. Know,

(23:46):
just just a general guideline to what is a correct answer.
If he had said he had said was a famous
athlete that was on a weedies box, thought you were
going with Muhammad Ali and like his name is Cashi's
Clay right now? Yeah, if you said who's the boxer
that blankety blank blank, and I was like, Mohammed Ali, Like, uh,

(24:09):
it's Cash's Clay. Bullshit, dude, I think we'll give it
to you. Have that been given in a multiple choice, right?
I mean, That's all I'm saying is like, there's the
correct answer is in quotations, which is an interesting way
to play. It's one way to look at you know,
we were trying to keep this game tight and here

(24:30):
we are. Phil hit Us with the scoreboard update. Karen
has zero, Seth's and Brody have one, Kalan Janis have three,
and Steve, oh my god, he has four points. Is
in the league. Good job were benefited from not so

(24:53):
silent Silent teeth are coming out all right, brand the
question sixty topics conservation. Now, this is our listener question
of the Week, which was one by Joe Zimlich. For

(25:13):
sending this great question, Joe is going to get a
copy of the Meat Eater Fish in Game cookbook autographed
by Steve. If you want a chance to win the
Listener Question the Week, send your question to Trivia at
the meat Eater dot com. This bird, which can be
hunted in forty two states is involved in more aircraft
collisions than any other animal. And I'll give you a

(25:35):
hint it is not a Canada goose. Thanks, I can
be hunted in forty two states. This bird, which can
be hunted in forty two states is involved in more
aircraft collisions than any other animal. And I'll give you
a hint, it is not a Canada goose. Notice how

(25:59):
I'm writing very reluctantly and slowly, but I was writing
cockily a minute ago. Before I even finished questions, Steve
was writing down Canada goose, which we stop. Isn't that
the that's the bird that uh you know, the miracle
on the hust Sully. Yeah, again, this is our listener

(26:19):
question in the week. That's how much I like this
damn question. Yeah, that's a good one. I gotta say
that God got was going Canada goose. Well I was
doing I was doing that only because it's solely my wheel.
I think that's what he said. No, my aircraft he took,
he took the control, he sees the controls from the
co pilot saying my aircraft. Does everybody have an answer?

(26:45):
Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying
crow whale, Seth saying pintail, Brody's saying snow goose, cal
saying dove, while I said saying snow goose, and Krian
saying what is that? What is that? It was mad,
but I crossed that whatever snow goose, Mallard. The correct answer,

(27:07):
which somebody got is mourning dove. Really canest this counts? Yes,
that count that kid count We are going to give
you dove. Hundred kinds of doves. We're going to give
you dove. And you know what I was writing, dove,

(27:27):
but from Brody on previous games. According to the Federal
Aviation Administration, eleven percent of birds struck by aircrafts are
mourning doves, and although of aircraft collisions are with birds,
strikes with other animals do occur. The most commonly struck

(27:47):
non bird species are white tailed deer and coyotes. Was
crow anywhere on that list? I just put ducks? Is
like not, you know, it doesn't know one cares why
I put it down. The f f a uh doesn't
give watch detail. They say morning dove is the most
struck bird. Um and then it's it's something weird that
although only like five percent of collisions happen with waterfowl,

(28:07):
they make up like fi of damage to aircraft. Have
you see that that youver see that video clip of
that picture that famous Mandy Johnson that morning of the
baseball played for the Diamondbacks, like Mariners first had hair
like Seth used to. That's right, ran A question seven.

(28:29):
The topic is gear name one of the top five
states with the highest rate of gun ownership. Now this
number is calculated, but how many people own guns tracked
against the total population? So name one of the top
five states with the highest rate of gun ownership. It's

(28:51):
some quick answers in the room. How are you feeling? Korean?
She's not given any hints we got five shoes from
does everybody have any go ahead? And we have Jhanna
saying Idaho, See saying Alaska, Whale, Seth saying Alaska, Brody's
saying Texas, Kyl saying South Dakota, Walley Seth saying Texas,

(29:12):
and Karin saying that was such a weird choice on
your part, and Brody, that's a weird choice. I don't know.
We'll find out, won't. We have nothing to lose. I
can't win this game those because it's got so many
like you got like Dallas, you got Houston. You know
what I mean. It's like you gotta go with places
where not a lot of people. The five states are Montana, Wyoming, Alaska, Idaho,

(29:37):
and West Virginia. Very weird choices around there, Man be
a whale Seth. Though this data was compiled by I
didn't get no. I mean, I knew a lot of
it was on the last. I knew my yomening was
on the last. So you just put one that you
didn't know it was on. I was pretty confident listening game.
You people want tom, I'm here for that actual information. Oh,

(30:03):
I didn't realize that's what you're the repetitiveness of the conversation.
You came here to argue gender politics and to talk
about how things are scored every week. God, who's going
to get an answer that's not really the right. At

(30:25):
some point you might need to bring in you might
need to find and bring in like the most impartial
person on the planet, and it would be that everyone
agrees that that person calls it and you can't argue it.
This data was compiled by the Q Research Center. Montana
is number one with a sixty six point three percent

(30:46):
gun ownership rate. The bottom five in gun ownership rate
or Massachusetts, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Hawaii, and New York.
I feel like we have Phil as the impartial party
that I had to overrule him on the Phil's got

(31:06):
little access to grind man. I'm censored to that. I
sit across from them, so I've seen his face. He's
got little ax and he's got little hatchets. He's got
little hatchets to grind. Over there, Steele, sell those little
video axes. We're onto question eight. We'll get a scoreboard
update from impartial fill after this. That's what they call me.

(31:29):
Topic is silent killer and impartial film what animal lays
the biggest egg in the world? Oh? What animal? What
animal lays the biggest egg in the world? Not many

(31:50):
quick answers. Well, I got a couple of questions. We
go outside because I thought you were saying earlier how
you never talked before a question? Just write your answer
down that what is an animal? I wish I could

(32:12):
call like a little conference, like when they have like
a thing and you know, like in baseball the manager
goes out and talks to the picture, the cult or whatever,
just a sports reference. Go ahead, Seth out of an
actual question. Oh no, I don't. I'm too nervous. Too nervous.
He's within arms reach of Steve right now, gunced out.

(32:33):
Does everybody have an answer? I know it's gonna be
one of them. Oh I didn't know that questions what
animal is the biggest things in the world? Yanni? Good?
Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Yanni saying emu,
Steve saying emu. Whale Seth without an answer. Bro, he's

(32:55):
saying whale shar because it's over Ostrich, while I Seth
saying Ostrich and Karin saying Ostrich, Well, there's sharks that
do eggs, and then they're sharks that have live beyond
a viporous and oviviparous The correct answer is ostrich Oh
that's what I had. I raised it because I thought

(33:15):
you'd call it a bird. Although it's the biggest egg
in the world, it's actually the smallest egg in relation
to the size of the bird. The average ostrich age
egg is about three point five pounds, which is the
equivalent in volume to two dozen of Yanni's chicken eggs.
And I see Brod he picked up his phone. I
think he's googling whale shark egg size. That's how you're doing.

(33:40):
What are you doing? Oh? You know, what I saw
just can't unbelievably cute, And it's only the second time
I've ever seen it. Is ah a little humming bird
nest where we were camping, and he'd coming sitting there
and just kind of relaxing there, the acutest thing on
the planet. Whoever he she don't know how they I
don't know. I don't even looked up like you. They
share responsibil I mean this little spencer, this little nest

(34:06):
so small that the hummingbird's head and tailor hang out
of the nest. Did you see the eggs? No. I
try to get my kid to climb up there and
have a look, but they didn't want to disturb it.
You had to get right up in its business to
kind of look. You know, it would have been eat
if you could have seen him Lang one. Oh, I'm

(34:30):
looking at the scoreboard right now and I feel like
I've made a mistake. But I'm gonna read this out
loud just to hear Steve's response. In last place with
the one point is Broody Henderson and the guy with
the most average right Steve catch up a little bit,
then coming up tied for second place with two points apiece.

(34:52):
We have the Seth's Whale and Walleye and Karin and
then tied for first place each with five points. Are
cal Janison's going into the last two questions his little
face off and he's sitting there in a number one slot.
And we have not had overtime in a while, so

(35:12):
today maybe Christopher, I'm gonna call him Christopher. Got this.
This room feels like an alternative reality, like I don't
know what's happening. It might be the whale blower. Question nine,
the topic is mountain Man. This next great question comes
to was being Robert Davis. If you have a question

(35:34):
you think is right for Meat Eat Trivia, you can
send it to trivia at the meat eater dot com.
Does he win the stuff? No? We we had that
back in question six, where do you win? You want
to sign a book by you? What was I talking
about you? We declared it. Did You're kidding me? The

(35:55):
book that I need you to sign? After this? For him,
here's the question. Pemmican was a popular food for mountain
men because it's lightweight, stable, and nutritious. Named two of
the three primary ingredients used to make pemmican. Pemmican was
a popular food for mountain men because it's lightweight, stable,

(36:18):
and nutritious. I need you to name two of the
three primary ingredients used to make pemmican. Done Brody? Why
don't I care about Brody? I should be like, are
you done? Cow? But I do feel like this mountain
man category is like totally skewed towards your your you

(36:38):
know your jam being an American and all, you should
build every question as if they're going to be about
Daniel Boone. Now something he may have carried would have
been pemmican. Is everybody of an answer looking for two
of the three ingredients, Go ahead and reveal your answers.

(36:59):
We have Yon saying berries and meat, Steve saying dry
meat and fat, Whale, Seth saying dried meat and fat.
Brod he's saying two out of the three. Everybody knows
all three kale and fat. Cal only says fat all
I said, saying salt and meat, and Karin saying meat

(37:22):
and berries. The room did well for the people who
wrote down two answers. This is such a he's made meat.
The three ingredients are meat, fat, and fruit or nuts.
So the room did very mean. Growing up in Montana,
we learned pemmican every single year by every single teacher.

(37:49):
Pemmican was invented by Native Americans, but was widely adopted
by the fur trappers and explorers across the continent. You know,
I mean, but right now he's out right now, No,
he's not. If you want this is if you want
a great recipe for this super food, check out. Brody

(38:12):
Henderson on the media dot Com called pemmican the original
Hunter's Trail food, and Brody was just salty that this
question was written for Steve, despite him having an article
about you, and Steve had a lot to say about
question ten, the game is still up for grabs. The

(38:35):
topic is fishing. Mhm. This state has world records for
kobea Rowanoke bass, northern snakehead, white bass, and blue catfish.
What is it? This state has world records for kobe
a Rowanoke bass, northern snakehead, white bass, and blue catfish.

(38:59):
What is it? We are down to Cal, Steve and Janice.
M hmmm. Steve may have had the quickest answer in
the room. How you feeling? Put a percent on it
for you, Cal, I'm playing with house money right now.
A thousands and Yanni. Where's your confidence at? Very low?

(39:25):
Very low? Very okay? I wish I had a map
of the United States again, kobe a Roanoke bass, northern snakehead,
white bass, and blue catfish. Now my confidence is get
shaken reaction. Then I switched it. Did you say you
just said records right? World records, World records, world records.

(39:47):
Those are the real big ones. Yes, all that had
cat fish in Kansas world record or are you so
um competing? Brodie? Oh? I want to get the answer right.
Does everybody have an answer. No, man, I might change
my answer. It's painful. Well, yeah, I guess I'm just

(40:10):
focused on the overlap of species, not the world records,
which I know absolutely nothing about. That's more of a
Seth thing. We have a shaky standing, a shaken three
leaders in the room. Here, does your homunculus have anything
to say? Aulus has a lot? Say? Can you here's

(40:31):
the fish one more time? We have kobea Roanoke bass,
northern snakehead, white bass, and blue catfish. Everybody ready, go
ahead and reveal your answers. We have Jana saying Maryland,
Steve saying North Carolina, Whale, Seth saying Minnesota, Brody saying Virginia,
cal saying Virginia, while I Seth saying North Carolina, and

(40:52):
Karin saying Maryland. We do have a correct answer in
the room. It is Virginia, which makes this go to
a three way tie breaker? Is that right? What do
you know what? Roanoke is in Virginia? And I thought
those two obvious, Well, row He's in Virginia, and I
think Rowanoke colony where the famous thing happened, I think

(41:14):
is in North Carolina. So two states shouldn't narrated the
North Carolina is like so well known for KOBEA. What
do you put Virginia down because of the Rowano deal.
I was laying in Virginia and rollanoke, Virginia is just
a state or a world record fishy place. Just this
morning I wrote this question last night. Just this morning,

(41:37):
the new world record fall fish was caught, which also
came from Virginia. This is almost this was my question
in regards to so you can go in fish, you know,
six miles north of Virginia in Maryland waters and be

(41:57):
a hundred miles off shore, and if you return to
your Virginia harbor, it is a Virginia world record. Yeah,
it makes no I'm like a lot of that stuff
is just I think how your departments and natural resources
can scrape together some more fishing dollars. We are onto
the tiebreaker. I don't know if you guys knew this

(42:18):
in the room, but we now have a tiebreaker sounder
sitting on this tiebreaker for months and it has been
a while. And if you haven't heard philis tiebreakers, it's
very good. I always come and I asked Phil for
like a five dollar piece of audio, and then Phil
gives us like a thousand dollar piece of audio, so
good every time we need something. Got if I would

(42:40):
have gone two out of three Pemmican materials mixing materials.
Well yeah, well, Spencer, you specifically asked for hip hop airhorns,
so I had to add those in the hip hop
what's a hip hop airhorn? Were not done that guy,
sense at all? First, Lad, you can be second, you

(43:01):
can be third, fourth. Five. The tiebreaker topic is fishing.
What is the average cost of an annual resident fishing
license in America? In two? What is the average cost

(43:22):
of an annual resident fishing license in America? In This
is a numeric question, which means the closest between Steve,
Janice and Cal will be declared our winner and none
of that like over under bullshit, Just closest. You're gonna
need a second tiebreaker. I have four of them. This

(43:43):
is what everybody know. What everybody? I know what everybody's
gonna write. Cal, How are you feeling? I mean, we're
all going to be in the ballpark? Okay, you really think? So?
It's good to know. Let's see if you're right? Are
you three? Ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We
have Janice saying seventeen dollars, Steve saying twenty dollars, and

(44:07):
Cal saying sixteen dollars. The answer is cents making Steve
the silent killer comes in and wins killer. He means

(44:28):
everyone else goes silent. Good job, Steve, Well everybody hates
the winner. Man. You know what I think it was.
I saw an email that was to Spencer the other
week is like, please more mountain man related questions, please, Steve. Steve,

(44:50):
it wasn't for that hint that you hate so much.

Books in Seattle? I want my that comes as a
conservation groups. Tell us about it. I don't know they

(45:11):
published They published environmental work, absolutely, yeah, that's what they do.
And they published sex books. I think they started years
ago publishing mountaineering guiding books, but now they have a
books is the pre eminent nonprofit publisher of mountaineering histories, biographies,
conservation adventure narratives, natural history and other guides. Right there.
