Speaker 1 (00:07):
It's podcast. Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game
show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer Newhart,
and today we're joined by Brodie Yannis, Chester Randall, Seth Chili,
and Taylor Taylan. This is your first time on trivia.
Tell folks what you do here at meat Eater.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
All right, Yes, my name is Taylan. This is my
first day at meat Eater.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Literally first day. You've been here what like two hours?

Speaker 3 (00:34):
Maybe?

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Okay, maybe I have no idea what I'm getting into. Anyway,
I'm an intern here. I'm working in sales administration with
Colin uh and I go to Montana State.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
Welcome. Did you know that we have like podcasts here?

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Like?

Speaker 4 (00:50):
Is that something I did?

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Okay, you're not You're not aware of this show?

Speaker 2 (00:54):
I am Okay, I didn't know I was walking into
a podcast.

Speaker 5 (00:58):
Okay, Well, well the thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
This is a ten round quiz show with questions for
meat eaters four verticals which are 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
and for the stat of the week. This week, we're
looking at players success rate in each category. On average,
players get hunting questions correct forty one percent of the time,

(01:24):
fishing questions correct thirty eight percent of the time, conservation
questions correct forty three percent of the time, and cooking
questions correct forty five percent of the time. So by
those stats, the fishing category is hardest and cooking category
is easiest. Thoughts, does that seem right to you, Yanni?

Speaker 6 (01:44):
I'm just surprised that when you listed them just now
that you didn't like put them in order, that's what
the hardest. That confused me. But yeah, I would have
thought that we would have done best in the hunting category.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Best in the hunty you do third best in the
hunting category, and like we've talked about before, chat GPT
does the worst in the hunting category, so you have
a leg up there, but everything else chat GPT would
whoop you.

Speaker 7 (02:10):
Do you know if we have the most like hunting questions, like,
what's the question or the topic you ask most often?

Speaker 1 (02:18):
I think conservation. A lot of things that go to
the fringe of the meat eater universe just get lumped
under conservation. So if I had to guess it would
be like forty percent of the questions or conservation, which
would be a little over represented there. And here's our
new segment, FAQs. If you have a question for our
crew related to Mediater trivia, you can send it to

(02:39):
trivia at the medeater dot com with the subject line FAQ.
We are doing two of them this week.

Speaker 6 (02:45):
The first I'd like to add though that don't feel
like ten other people have to also send in the
question that you have because last time on this show,
Spencer picked when we're only one person had asked this question,
so it wasn't really a frequently asked ut question.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
The first question, the first question is from Tyler LV.
He says, I feel your choice of subject line is uninspired.
At the very least, it should be I FAQ for
infrequently asked questions. You know what, Tyler, You're exactly right.
That's better. So going forward we're going to call this
I FAQ's if you have a question for the crew

(03:22):
about trivia, the rite trivia at the Mediator dot com
with the subject line I FAQ. Does that satisfy you?
Yannie love it?

Speaker 4 (03:31):
Now?

Speaker 1 (03:31):
Here's our other question from Jason White. Do you use
the Shelby index to influence the questions asked. If a
Shelby index is too high or low, do you make changes?
Short answers yes. Long answer is that the Shelby index
is when I ask my questions to my wife, who
is not a subject matter expert on hunting, fishing, conservation,

(03:53):
or cooking, and I see how she does. I realized
early on in the show that she gets about half
as many right as our winner. Do I change questions
based on if it's too high or too low? Yes,
If she only gets one right, I will swap in
a question that I think is easier that she would
get right. Or it would change the phrasing of a question.
If there was a question about a state and I'm

(04:14):
looking for the answer to be like Maine, maybe the
question originally it was just like what state, YadA, YadA,
I would then change it to like what New England
state to give our players a better chance. So yes,
I do change the questions based on if the Shelby
index is too high or too low. I shoot for
a Shelby index that's between three and five. I think

(04:35):
that makes for a good game of trivia. Now we
have some housekeeping. It get to you. In a previous
game of trivia, we had a question about bangers and mash,
which I declared to be a Saint Patti's Day staple.
But we had about a dozen listeners right in saying
they were Irish and that this dish wasn't part of
their cultural heritage at all. Still, I found parts of
the internet that disagree, calling bangers in mash, a widely

(04:57):
popular pub dish in Ireland, the perfect Irish comfort food
in a Saint Patrick's Day tradition. But I'll admit that
those who rode in weren't totally wrong, and that it's
more appropriate to describe bangers and mash as a British
dish instead of an Irish one. So that's a change
I'll make when this question appears in our next board game. Now,

(05:18):
the Shelby indexpert today's round is a five, so I'm
putting us on perfect game alert, and with that we're
onto the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil, Look, I.

Speaker 4 (05:31):
Need to know what I stay under?

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Win everything?

Speaker 4 (05:35):
How's that? Just tend to win everything?

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Demon suckers?

Speaker 4 (05:47):
It's so nice to get an uninterrupted intro.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
You like that?

Speaker 4 (05:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:50):
What was so funny over here, Jannie. We had a
few giggles.

Speaker 6 (05:55):
I just fired up. I was in my head. I
was wondering if Tailor never even heard that intro? Never
or so you've never listened to this show.

Speaker 8 (06:05):
Usually we don't get to hear it if Cal's in
the room.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Question one. The topic is public lands, and as always,
the first question will be multiple choice. This first great
question comes to us via Samantha McCann. Which of these
is not a real land designation within the National Park Service?
Is it National fossil Bed, National lake Shore, National Historic Trail,

(06:32):
or National Military Park? Which of these is not a
real land designation within the National Park Service? That means
three of them are real, one of them is not.
Is it National fossil bed, National lake Shore, National Historic Trail,
or National Military Park. Johnny looking around the room, surveying

(06:58):
his competitors, Yanni, what did you observe there?

Speaker 6 (07:06):
Nothing other than Randall had already had had an answer.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
But confident Randall, I feel pretty good.

Speaker 4 (07:13):
I feel pretty good.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Now. You know you can mess with Yanni. You can.
You could do some extra writing on your board, just
tap away at that's right, Uh huh, you can make it.

Speaker 4 (07:22):
Maybe I'm racing. Now, maybe I'm not.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
Your four choices are national fossil bed, national lake shore,
National Historic trail, national military park.

Speaker 4 (07:33):
I'm messing with myself.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Brodi, do you have an answer.

Speaker 6 (07:36):
It's an honest group.

Speaker 8 (07:37):
I've got an answer, but I want to write yet.

Speaker 6 (07:41):
That's true?

Speaker 1 (07:42):
All right, but everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have seth saying lake shore. Chest You're saying military park,
Chili saying military park, Randall saying fossil bed, Tailing saying
historic trail, Yannis saying military park. Brody saying fossil bed.

(08:04):
The correct answer is national fossil bed. Randall, got it right.
An example of a national lakeshore is the Sleeping Bear
Dunes National Lakeshore in Michigan. An example of a National
Historic Trail is the Oregon National Historic Trail that passes
through six states. An example of a national military park

(08:26):
is Gettysburg National Military Park in Pennsylvania. The Park Service
does not. The Park Service does protect some fossil beds,
like the Hagermann Fossil Beds in Idaho and Florescent fossil
Beds in Colorado, but those are national monuments. Question two
the topic is hunting. This deer hunting arcade game, which

(08:49):
uses green and orange guns for controllers, was inspired by
Nintendo's Duck Hunt. This deer hunting are arcade game, which
uses green and orange guns for controllers, was inspired by
Nintendo's Duck Hunt. We seem to have a confident room

(09:09):
besides Yanni and Chester. Seth.

Speaker 6 (09:13):
Do you know Jayalen you know this? I think so
y got an idea.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
We had an arcade game in my apartment building with
green and orange guns. Okay, if I can remember the
name right, have you played?

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Have you played this game? You think?

Speaker 7 (09:27):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (09:27):
I have.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
I played the game I'm thinking of, but I don't
know if I'm remembering the name quite right.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
Seth, you played this game?

Speaker 3 (09:33):
Oh yeah?

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Are you good at it?

Speaker 3 (09:34):
You think?

Speaker 1 (09:35):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (09:37):
I'm all right.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Faction guns not going to give you any hints, Brody,
I will tell.

Speaker 6 (09:43):
You that's not a him that they are green and orange.
But speaking of funny ball thing like that, yesterday I
was trying to find the games on streaming TV. I'm
still to the point with all that technology where I'm like,
I don't know, I just check them all and hopefully
I'll pop up somewhere, but there was a movie just
on and playing, some random, random movie that just comes

(10:05):
on the smart TV. There's some kind of a horror
flick and I.

Speaker 4 (10:08):
Think it was called the Triangle.

Speaker 6 (10:10):
Maybe that rings a bell. They were on a big boat.

Speaker 9 (10:12):
Of some sort, this Triangle of sadness. It's not a
it's not a horror film.

Speaker 6 (10:19):
I'm just clarifying for it. It's not a horror film.
As a dude with a mat with a bag over
his head chasing a young woman, a romantic lead woman
around with a shotgun, shooting other women. I just caught
it when he'd already shot a couple and then he's
chasing this one and she puts up a good.

Speaker 8 (10:37):
Did it take place in the Bermuda Triangle?

Speaker 6 (10:40):
But I only caught a little bit of it. I
just want to tell you about this specific part is
where I noticed that he's reloading his believe is over
under and he shoots and then you hear.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
You gotta put that sound in. It's movie magic.

Speaker 10 (10:56):
It's like the elk bugle during wintertime home.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Does everybody have an answer for the deer hunting arcade
game with green and orange gun controllers? Go ahead and
reveal your answers. We have Seth saying big buck Hunter,
Chester Buck Hunter, Chili saying big buck Hunter, Randall saying
big buck Hunter, Taylor saying big game hunting, Giannis saying

(11:24):
big game Hunter. Brody saying big buck Hunter.

Speaker 7 (11:28):
Dude, I erased big I just hate this game.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
He's got to answer big correct answer is big buck Hunter?
One word away?

Speaker 4 (11:40):
Do you hate the arcade game or the or trivia?

Speaker 7 (11:42):
I don't like the arcade game.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Big buck Hunter came out in two thousand. The goal
of the game is to shoot and moving bucks without
hitting a dough every fall. Is the World Championship Big
Buck Hunter Tournament, where the one hundred and twenty eight
best players from around the globe pete for a trophy
and twenty thousand dollars.

Speaker 8 (12:03):
Really does a good job of teaching kids ethical hunting
that game.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
And you can tell no real hunters play it because
they always hold the World Championship Tournament like the first
week in November or the last week of October. Brody,
I'm surprised you were so quick to answer. How did
you know that? One?

Speaker 4 (12:18):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (12:18):
I mean in college I used to throw the money
into that thing. Really two thousand. I guess it was
in college then, but I feel like it was around
back then.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Anyway, they ought to make a big dough hunter.

Speaker 5 (12:29):
I'm sure that's good.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
You can target you get out a corner of that
market set question.

Speaker 4 (12:35):
Get disqualified for shooting bucks.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
Yeah, there you go.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
Question three, Hey, College Shoulder Season. Question three. The topic
is forging. This is our listener question of the week,
which was won by Stan Wishman for sending this great question.
Stan is going to get a board game signed by
the crew. If you want a chance to win the
Listener Question of the Week, then send your question to
Trivia at the meat eater dot com. This nine letter

(13:00):
tree has leaves that are used to make gumbo, bark
that's used to make syrup, and roots that are used
to make root beer. Your answer should have nine letters.
This nine letter tree has leaves that are used to
make gumbo, bark that's used to make syrup, and roots

(13:21):
that are used to make root beer.

Speaker 5 (13:25):
Do those letters need to be like.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
In the correct order as in like, No, you don't
have to spell it correctly.

Speaker 4 (13:33):
If that's you just like or take away misspell it
with eight letters.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
Well, there's a correct answer. The nine letters is a hint.
You could spell it however you'd like. Yanni was one
of the quickest to come up with an answer. You
know this one, Yanni? You know a tree? Nine letters? Yes, Brody,
do you know this one? Brody and Yanni and I.

Speaker 6 (13:57):
Would have had a different answer had there not been the.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Randall.

Speaker 4 (14:01):
You know this one, I believe. So my first, my first,
the first thing that came to mind immediately had twelve letters,
and then I realized I was thinking of an entirely
different use for plants. So I think I'm on the
right track.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
Now, this nine letter tree has leaves that are used
to make gumbo, bark that's used to make syrup, and
roots that are used to make beer. Brodie's using his
fingers and toes over here the.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
Gumbo thing, Yeah, the gumbo things.

Speaker 1 (14:36):
Our room appears to be stumped, except for Randal, Yanni.

Speaker 3 (14:40):
And bark used to make syrup.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
That's right.

Speaker 6 (14:47):
I'll learned something fascinating about fire adapted oaks the other day.
Did you know that there are leaves. The way they're
shaped and the way they curl up on the ground
they're dry, is actually to promote fire burning through I
did not know that isn't that interesting?

Speaker 1 (15:02):
It is interesting. Are you folks without an answer going
to come up with an answer? You think negative?

Speaker 3 (15:09):
Seth? I'm gonna hate myself when I hear the answer.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Okay, is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Seth, chester and chili without an answer? Random
Sassafrans tailor saying sassafras, Yeah, sayings Brody saying Sassafrans.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
They got it.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
The correct answer is what do you get?

Speaker 10 (15:32):
I wrote down sasafras, felt it wrong. It wasn't.

Speaker 3 (15:41):
Is the issue I think I was. Yeah, it didn't
come out.

Speaker 8 (15:44):
To initially wrote ECUs.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
And so then the nine letter thing really helped me.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Sassafras is a native tree that's found in almost every
state east of the Mississippi River. Native Americans found that
it had mini bodness medicinal uses such as treating skin
diseases and stomach ailments. Today, it's dried leaves are used
in gumbo and other soups. Its roots are used to
make root beer and tea, and its bark is used

(16:11):
to make syrup infused honey and kombucha.

Speaker 9 (16:15):
Yeah, I think it's it's leaves when they're ground up
and putting gumbo.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
It's called.

Speaker 8 (16:20):
Exactly some actual flavored text that's tasty.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
Question four, the topic is fishing. This type of top
water bass lure, which resembles a spinner bait, creates a
bubble trail when retrieved. We have confident Brodie Seth uncapped
his marker with some confidence. I'm guessing he's going to
get this one. This type of topwater bass lure, which

(16:49):
resembles a spinner baitm creates a bubble trail when retrieved.

Speaker 8 (16:56):
Really satisfying lure to fish.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
There's a hint.

Speaker 6 (17:01):
I've caught a few bucket mouths on it. Seth.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Do you have any of these in your tackle box?

Speaker 7 (17:07):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Yeah, well I have currently I have like one maybe two.

Speaker 1 (17:11):
Have you ever used one in Montana?

Speaker 3 (17:14):
No? I think the ones I have are still in
the packaging.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Pike, there's a hint for chester Chester. Do you know
this one?

Speaker 7 (17:21):
I mean, I think so, but I have just.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
Large mouthfishing in Montana's minimal. But Brodie said they work
for pike.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
This type of top water bass lure, which resembles a
spinner bait, creates a bubble trail when retrieved.

Speaker 6 (17:42):
Speaking of Pike. I was talking to a fellow that
was going to fish the uh Stagecoach Reservoir Ice Fishing
tournament this past weekend, and he said, now there's a
mandatory kill on.

Speaker 8 (17:53):
All of the at war against those things.

Speaker 6 (17:55):
Yea, but now it's not only Pike. Now there's I
guess there's Walleye Water up in there, and then uh
small Mouth probably yeah, in Small Mountain.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
Someone's doing the Lord's work down there.

Speaker 6 (18:11):
I'm like, the global war.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Seth saying buzz bait, Chester saying buzz bait,
Chili saying swiveloore, Randalls saying buzz bait, tailing without an answer,
Yanni and Brody saying buzz bait. They got it. The
correct answer is buzz bait. Buzz Baits first hit the

(18:36):
market in nineteen seventy six. Rick Klon brought early fame
to the lure when he modified a spinner bait and
ran it just under the surface of the water to
win the nineteen seventy six and nineteen seventy seven Bass
Master Classics. Buzz Baits use a combination of sound, vibration,
and flash to get a bass's attention. Question five, the

(18:57):
topic is conservation. Name five of the nine states that
have more cattle than people? There are nine of them.
You need to name five. Name five of the nine
states that have more cattle than people? Randall, how'll we

(19:23):
doing over there?

Speaker 4 (19:24):
I think I'm doing I think I'm doing all right.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
You think you could get nine of them if you
had to?

Speaker 4 (19:30):
No, I mean I could take a swing at it,
but I think that would be tough.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Name five of the nine states that have more cattle
than people. Brody seems as though he's torn between a few.
Five of the nine states. Mmmm. Seth with the quickest

(19:59):
one to come up with an answer, Seth, how do
you feel about your five states?

Speaker 3 (20:04):
You know I got three of them.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
I know that was it harder to come up with five? Like,
did you feel like you had too many or not enough?

Speaker 4 (20:12):
No?

Speaker 3 (20:13):
I feel like you had too many, too many?

Speaker 4 (20:14):
Okay, I'm really second guessing myself.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
Five of the nine states that have more cattle than people.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
Was throwing me off.

Speaker 10 (20:25):
There's a couple states I thought would have more, but
they also have like pretty big cities.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
Okay. I was expecting some pushback from Brody, And how
was this conservation?

Speaker 8 (20:37):
Oh, I I've kind of given up.

Speaker 4 (20:41):
Okay, Well, I guess there's there's some states I can think.
I don't know. This might be too much of a clue.

Speaker 5 (20:47):
Yeah, I don't say it.

Speaker 3 (20:48):
Okay, it is.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
I would guess I know what you're gonna say as well. Again,
we're looking five of the nine states? Chester, how do
you feel about Chili answers? You agree?

Speaker 7 (21:04):
Why you should put five down that seven?

Speaker 1 (21:07):
If you get one of them, you're gonna get it wrong.

Speaker 8 (21:10):
If you go at the five, you're most sure.

Speaker 6 (21:13):
Make sure that letter in the bottom left one is
real clear.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Also, we've had an issue in the past with people
doing abbreviations that they then got wrong. So so you
should maybe write out the entire state. I think we
had cal who thought he was answering Missouri but did
Mississippi instead. That's tough, maybe right out the whole name.

(21:39):
What's the tough part, Brody.

Speaker 8 (21:41):
I mean tough ship for him wrong doesn't know the abbreviations?

Speaker 1 (21:46):
Is everybody ready?

Speaker 4 (21:49):
Nine states?

Speaker 10 (21:50):
Five?

Speaker 4 (21:50):
That's more than nine?

Speaker 1 (21:53):
Oh, seth? Going back, everyone has five answer.

Speaker 6 (21:55):
There's gonna be a couple of surprisers.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
I bet Oh, I think, oh, you know what.

Speaker 1 (21:59):
I You're right, Brody, this is your last chance to change.
Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have set saying Montana, Wyoming, Kansas, Nebraska,
North Dakota, Chester saying Wyoming, South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Nebraska,
Chile saying South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Randalls

(22:25):
sang Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Taylan saying Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Yanni saying Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, Nebraska,
South Dakota, Brody saying North Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Kansas, South Dakota.

(22:49):
The nine states are Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma,
South Dakota, and Wyoming. I think everybody but Chili had
that one right rooms.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
Vermont.

Speaker 10 (23:11):
I know.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
According to the USDA, South Dakota has the most lopsided
ratio of cattle two people in the country. They say
there are three point five million head of cattle compared
to nine hundred thousand people, meaning there are four cattle
per person in the state. On the other end of
the spectrum is New Jersey, who has about fifty thousand
cattle compared to nine million people, meaning there are one

(23:35):
hundred and eighty people per cow in the state.

Speaker 6 (23:38):
Where did Florida fall?

Speaker 1 (23:40):
I don't know. I only saw the top of the
list in the very bottom, but it must have been
somewhere in between. You got to think about all the
cities they have there. Feetlando, Jacksonville, Iowa.

Speaker 4 (23:50):
Was initially on my list, and then I was like,
how do you count? I don't have the exhaustive knowledge
of the cattle industry, but a lot of cattle are
moving in and out right, So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
Phil. We are halfway through the game of trivia. Give
us a scoreboard.

Speaker 6 (24:04):
Do you want to entertain your discussion?

Speaker 3 (24:06):
No?

Speaker 4 (24:06):
Nobody thought that was a good Well.

Speaker 7 (24:08):
I don't have an answer for you, Randall, But I
was up there, Randall, I took I took note.

Speaker 3 (24:14):
Good thought, but no one cares.

Speaker 6 (24:16):
Everybody is on the board.

Speaker 3 (24:18):
Who got chili? With one point?

Speaker 9 (24:20):
Taylor and Chester have two points apiece, Seth and Giannis
have three and tied up in first place. They both
have a perfect game. Are Brody and Randall.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
What's new?

Speaker 6 (24:32):
They have five phil Yes.

Speaker 4 (24:34):
Thinking more about feed lots.

Speaker 11 (24:35):
I question six.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
The topic is woodsmanship. This is considered the sister publication
of Field and Stream.

Speaker 5 (24:59):
Come on, Spencer, this.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Is considered the sister publication of Field and Stream. We
have a very confident room. This may be a one
hundred percenter. I feel like maybe your confidence. Brodie is
going to give Yanni a hint. Who seemed unsure of
his answer.

Speaker 3 (25:16):
Whatever, he just made me think I got all kinds of.

Speaker 8 (25:19):
Problems with this question.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
Okay, would you like to talk about him?

Speaker 5 (25:23):
An hour later later?

Speaker 1 (25:24):
Okay, Seth, you didn't like Chester's answer?

Speaker 10 (25:28):
Well, Chester's answer just made me think real hard, Okay,
because I thought I thought I knew it, and then
Chester wrote down an answer and I just have him
to look over there, cheating.

Speaker 4 (25:40):
The passive voice in this is just killing the Spencer.
I thought maybe this would be like, according to so
and so, just this is considered very.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
Do you think it's too matter of fact?

Speaker 4 (25:52):
Well, I just you know.

Speaker 3 (25:55):
This is fast food?

Speaker 10 (26:00):
Exactly?

Speaker 6 (26:00):
Does sister magazine mean like they have the same parents.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
Never said magazine.

Speaker 8 (26:05):
It would mean like sister Hunter, Stephen Ranella, someone that's
closely associated with you?

Speaker 1 (26:14):
Does everybody have an answer?

Speaker 3 (26:16):
Now?

Speaker 1 (26:16):
We had said, tell Chester that his answer made him
rethink his answer, which made Chester change his answer, and
then Seth said, now you're making me think even harder.

Speaker 8 (26:25):
So is this our first case of like documented cheating?

Speaker 2 (26:29):
Though?

Speaker 10 (26:30):
Well, I chat, I wrote down an answer previously looking
at chats, and I'm not changing it.

Speaker 7 (26:35):
You notice I haven't really said anything.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We
have Seth saying outdoor life, Chest You're saying guns and
Ammo Chili saying outdoor life, Randall saying outdoor life, Taylor
without an answer, Yanni, and Brody saying outdoor life. The
correct answer is outdoor life now if you'll go to
Field and Streams website. Brody, I was looking at one

(27:00):
of their editors bios and it said so and so
used to work for our sister publication, Outdoor No.

Speaker 5 (27:06):
I don't have a like.

Speaker 3 (27:07):
I agree it like.

Speaker 8 (27:08):
I don't know problem with the sister publication. Okay, I
just think it's way too easy.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
Way too easy. We had two people in here, and
are it wrong?

Speaker 3 (27:15):
Though?

Speaker 5 (27:15):
Did they actually even publish these things anymore?

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Outdoor Life publish their first magazine in eighteen ninety eight.
Some of its most famous contributors include Teddy Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart,
and Babe Ruth. In twenty eighteen, the magazine announced they'd
go from doing nine issues a year to four, and
in twenty twenty one they announced they'd cease printing the
magazine and would go fully digital. So there you go, Brody.

Speaker 7 (27:39):
My first one I wrote down was for fishing game.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
Sorry, Chester, that's wrong.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
What would have been the third answer on your list?

Speaker 7 (27:48):
Probably Outdoor Life Sports Reveal Question seven.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
The topic is public lands. This next great question comes
to us via Joe skag leone. The Great Blank Desert
is a region that's mostly made up of Nevada and
Utah where water doesn't drain into any ocean. Seems as
though Brody and Randall will keep the perfect game going.

(28:13):
The Great Blank.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
Desert is an easy question.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
Is a region that's mostly made up of Nevada and
Utah where water doesn't drain into any ocean. Brody and
Randall are the only ones to come up with an
answer thus far. Yoanni, how you're feeling about your thought
process over there? You have you narrowed it? Down to anything.

Speaker 6 (28:36):
No, No, I'm just waiting for that word pop into
my head.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
Okay, Now do my eyes deceive me?

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Or are the number of spaces? It's always five spaces
a single time. It doesn't matter if it's ten letter word,
a three letter word, or.

Speaker 4 (28:51):
Oh I'm glad I learned that on this question. Otherwise
grow before, I just haven't been paying attention to what
other people are saying.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
Always going to be five of space is dedicated to
the blank.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
I would have thought I was really onto something if
this has popped up on a on a different question.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
The Great Blank Desert is a region that's mostly made
up of Nevada and Utah where water doesn't drain into
any ocean. Chester, Do you have an answer?

Speaker 7 (29:16):
I do?

Speaker 1 (29:17):
How do you feel about your answer?

Speaker 7 (29:18):
Not good?

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Okay, Brody and Randall, I'm not are our only folks.

Speaker 8 (29:24):
I'm like, I'm going with what popped into my head.
There's something else that is confusing me.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
If I get this wrong, I'll probably argue it.

Speaker 6 (29:38):
Okay, good to know.

Speaker 5 (29:42):
I might argue with him.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Okay, does everybody get it wrong?

Speaker 4 (29:46):
You're getting it wrong?

Speaker 1 (29:49):
Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Seth saying my eb Chester is saying Salt
Lake Chile without an answer, Randall saying basin, Taalin saying basin,
Jiannis saying basin, Brody saying basin. The correct answer is basin.

(30:12):
The room did pretty well. Where's burning?

Speaker 7 (30:14):
Man?

Speaker 11 (30:15):
Is that?

Speaker 1 (30:17):
What is the Great Black Rock? Something like that?

Speaker 4 (30:21):
I don't know. California, Nevada.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
The Great Basin Desert is the coldest of North America's
four major deserts. Besides Nevada and Utah. It extends into
portions of Oregon, Idaho, and California. All of the precipitation
that falls there either drains into saline lakes is absorbed
into the soil where disappears via evaporation. It's estimated that

(30:43):
eighty percent of the region is public land.

Speaker 8 (30:48):
The Red Desert, Great Divide Basin Did you were You're
worried that.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Might confuse No?

Speaker 4 (30:55):
I wasn't.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Because does the Red Desert go into Nevada.

Speaker 8 (30:58):
No, I'm saying it's a different place. But the Great
Divide base and is where the Continental divide, and water
doesn't go anywhere in there.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Okay, Well, maybe if I had two blanks and I
left you the opportunity to.

Speaker 5 (31:12):
I just wondering.

Speaker 1 (31:13):
I was not worried about that. Brody question Question eight.
The topic is fishing. What Nordic country is the headquarters
of Rapaula? Confident? Randall again, and Brody and Seth, Chester
and Chile. What Nordic country is the headquarters of Rapaula?

Speaker 6 (31:37):
I should know this too? Why should you know this
my ancestors?

Speaker 1 (31:42):
And yeah, you hear it all sorts of different ways.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
Yeah, I think it's technically.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
What Nordic country is the headquarters of Rappela?

Speaker 5 (31:56):
Chili?

Speaker 1 (31:57):
You know this one?

Speaker 7 (31:58):
Umm?

Speaker 1 (31:59):
No, you know some Nordic country?

Speaker 3 (32:01):
I do? I have Norwegian?

Speaker 1 (32:06):
What Nordic country is?

Speaker 8 (32:08):
Boys make good lures, Rappela.

Speaker 3 (32:11):
Jiggery, just.

Speaker 4 (32:15):
Second guessing myself.

Speaker 1 (32:18):
It's everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers. We
have Seth saying Sweeten, Oh, Chester saying Canada, Chile saying Sweden,
Randall saying Finland, Tayland saying Switzerland, Yanni saying Sweden, Brody
saying Finland. The correct answer is Finland. The perfect game continues.

(32:43):
Rappaela was founded by a man in Finland who worked
as a lumberjack in the winter and fisherman. In the summer,
his wife was in charge of the bait, which she
gathered from a nearby forest. On a typical day, she'd
walk twenty miles just hauling minnows, which became unsustainable as
their family grew. That's when her husband created his first lure,

(33:03):
which was made of cork and covered in candy bar wrappers.
For more on these For more on this story, read
Kooby Brown's article on the medeater dot com called the
lure that changed fishing.

Speaker 8 (33:14):
My favorite knife for fulan little personally and yeah, the
Finlander from rappol Oh. Wow, it's a little one that's
a power like ten Bucks does it?

Speaker 6 (33:24):
Sometimes you can get the combo right where oh it
has a little the plastic sheep has a little side
compartment where that little knife.

Speaker 7 (33:31):
Is super soft steals. It can just sharpen it.

Speaker 8 (33:34):
So we Yeah, it's like, I don't know, ten Bucks
something like that.

Speaker 3 (33:37):
That's great knife, Phil.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
We have two questions left. Who is left in the game.

Speaker 9 (33:43):
Uh, it's down to Brody and Randall. They've got a
perfect game with eight points. Chester, Chilliannis, Seth and Taylor
cannot make up the distance.

Speaker 7 (33:51):
Spencer, I've got a proposal for you. Huh, you think
like we can kind of team up on these guys.

Speaker 1 (33:59):
Ever, I don't think.

Speaker 7 (34:00):
So, why not?

Speaker 1 (34:01):
But what I will do for you, Chester is someday
we're going to do a game in here where it's
only people who have never won, so we're gonna have.

Speaker 2 (34:10):
You.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
Will still invite you. You won the Billings Live Show.
It was a four question game of trivia that was
specific to Montana. Chester took the victory there.

Speaker 6 (34:19):
Yeah, it doesn't count Chester.

Speaker 1 (34:21):
When we do that game, Chester, we'll give you a CV.

Speaker 4 (34:25):
I want to play with chat GPT.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
You want to play against it?

Speaker 4 (34:28):
Yeah, I think that's the inverse.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
I think okay, I think we should just have a
chat GPT round Question nine. The topic is hunting. This
man owns a Colorado outfitting business, hosts easton bow Hunting
TV and was the first person to complete the North
American Super Slam with a recurve. Brody knows the answer.

(34:51):
Randall is slow to come up with anything. This could
separate them. No, no, no, I wants This man owns
a Colorado outfitting business, hosts Easton bow Hunting TV and
was the first person to complete the North American Super
Slam with a recurve. Yanni, you got this one right?

(35:14):
I believe so, Brody, you have this one right?

Speaker 4 (35:16):
Pretty sure?

Speaker 1 (35:18):
Brody thinks he'll be nine for nine. I'm feeling confident
kay Chester is gonna get this one right. Randall, what
do you got?

Speaker 6 (35:25):
I know this answer?

Speaker 4 (35:26):
Okay, I'm just I'm at a total loss.

Speaker 3 (35:28):
I see his face. I could draw he looks worried.
I can draw a picture like.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
All the photos of these showing these animals that have
been killed.

Speaker 1 (35:39):
Okay, tell us his name though, Randall, that's what you
need to do. We could we take a pause on this.
Man owns a Colorado outfitting business, hosts Easton bow Hunting TV,
and was the first person to complete the North American
Super Slam with a recurve. Brody, do think Randall actually

(36:00):
knows this one?

Speaker 8 (36:02):
Oh yeah, he's just not going to think of it.

Speaker 5 (36:06):
Do you see how read my face is? This is horrible?

Speaker 6 (36:12):
Oh god, so close?

Speaker 5 (36:14):
Oh god, his.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
Speaking cadence is sped up.

Speaker 3 (36:20):
Brody's just over here. Chet, you're still blank.

Speaker 4 (36:23):
You're waiting on me.

Speaker 3 (36:26):
I can see his face.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
Oh you can see the hunter's face.

Speaker 6 (36:30):
You're saying, yeah, yeah, Taylor, do you feel like Colin
didn't have any He wasn't prepared today for you to
show up. And then he said, oh, you should go
join the podcast studio.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
Well he came in and he was like, oh, I
want to go play some trivia and I was like,
I mean, yeah, sure. First day whatever, I thought it
was just going to be a room of people, you know,
not a podcast. And then we walk in and I
was like, oh.

Speaker 5 (36:52):
Wow, Colin used to play with us. How come he
has been playing lately.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
He's on an invite coming up. Colin will be back
in the.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
Because he moved to Townsend doesn't.

Speaker 6 (37:05):
Colin doesn't tell Randall crazy. Come on, buddy, I'm at
I'm jacket.

Speaker 7 (37:13):
I think time is up.

Speaker 5 (37:15):
We don't need to give you your heart medicine.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
Randall zipped his coat and he wiped away some sweat
from his forehead.

Speaker 9 (37:22):
You gotta pull in some of that that Yannis energy.
And because you wait four and a half minutes and then.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Question nine to be in here when you read the answer,
we're running out of time.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
Randall.

Speaker 6 (37:36):
Oh, I like to know that he's fallible. You know,
I actually rana or this hunter Randall. Actually, I don't
know if I woke up thinking about it. But at
some point last twenty four hours and I knew I
was coming to this show and Randall was going to
be playing. I was thinking what an advantage his dissertation was.

(37:58):
I mean, imagine he literally thousands of articles from like
five decades not about this guy.

Speaker 10 (38:07):
Oh even just like the even like the work he's
been doing with the meat eater history.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
This is enough, Randall. We're almost out of time.

Speaker 5 (38:19):
He is almost We've been out of time for five minutes.

Speaker 6 (38:23):
You'll play the buzzer sound.

Speaker 1 (38:25):
Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have seth without
an answer, Chester saying fred Eichler, Chili saying fred Behar,
Randall without an answer, tailing without an answer. Yanni sang Eichler.
Brody sang fred Eichler. He got it. The correct answer
is fred Eichler, Randall. Is that the answer you were
searching for? It is Eichler. Some of the best hunting

(38:50):
commercials of all time. When Easton declared him the most
interesting bow hunter in the world, play the clips Phil.

Speaker 12 (39:03):
The State of Colorado had a season dedicated just for him,
elk gather to watch him rut. He coined the phrase
tastes like chicken. He is the most interesting bow hunter
in the world.

Speaker 10 (39:22):
I don't bow hunt every day, but when I do,
I choose Easternaros.

Speaker 6 (39:27):
Shoot Straight my friends.

Speaker 5 (39:30):
Really best hunting commercial.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
No, he had like a series like bottle que Walked.

Speaker 12 (39:38):
He's the life of hunting camps. He's never even visited.
When Jimmy falls in the woods, he can hear it.
He is the most interesting bow hunter.

Speaker 3 (39:50):
That one right there. Yeah, I don't bow hunt every day.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
Commercials make you feel better.

Speaker 3 (39:57):
You know, shoots straight friends.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
I'm indifferent to the commercial CA I mean it's it's fun.
I hadn't seen that one, so adds a bit of
levity to the moment. But uh I, twenty twenty four
is over.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
Okay.

Speaker 8 (40:15):
You know what I like by that dude. He seems
to have fun, seems to enjoy himself.

Speaker 6 (40:19):
Jesse was your counter.

Speaker 7 (40:23):
I'm pretty sure I just met him at I think
it was the ATA show, which is the Archery Trade
Association show, when I was building recurved bows, and he
just kind of had some interest in the bows we built.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
We're onto question ten. We have Randall with one wrong answer,
Brody with the perfect game. We would need Brody to
get this wrong, Randall to get this right, to go
to overtime. The topic is cooking. This last great question
comes to his via my wife, Shelby Huber. According to
Taste of Home, asking for medium rare blank is how

(40:59):
you order steak that's between medium rare and medium. Brody
slow to come up with an answer. According to Taste
of Home, asking for medium rare blank is how you
order a steak that's between medium rare and medium Taylor,

(41:19):
did you come up with an answer? Do you think
you know this one?

Speaker 4 (41:22):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (41:23):
Okay, Taylor has it right. Seth is joining her with
an answer. Brody and Randall have yet to write anything down.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
Well, I worked in restaurants up until this point. Oh,
namely Riverside Country Club and uh, downtown Bozeman. That's the
steakhouses around the state, so.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Don't give any hints. But had you heard someone order
a steak like this before?

Speaker 2 (41:48):
Yes? Okay, this is about the one thing that'll get
a plate thrown at.

Speaker 9 (41:52):
You, and okay, don't do this.

Speaker 1 (41:56):
According to Taste of Home, asking for medium rare blank
is how you order a steak that's between medium rare
and medium Randal, how do you feel about your answer.

Speaker 3 (42:08):
I feel.

Speaker 4 (42:11):
I feel fine. Okay, again, we feel fine.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
We need Brody to get this wrong and Randall to
get this right to go to overtime, or Brody could
just get it wrong and have the second perfect Game
of twenty twenty four.

Speaker 5 (42:24):
I didn't even know this was a thing that exists.

Speaker 3 (42:27):
Yeah, I never even heard of phil.

Speaker 1 (42:28):
Had you heard of this?

Speaker 3 (42:29):
Never? Okay, I've waited tables for.

Speaker 4 (42:31):
A while too. I would have assumed it was just
sort of like a medium rare e like a noise
and a hand.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
The answer medium rare and a little more.

Speaker 1 (42:42):
Yeah, seth Oh you ever heard of this?

Speaker 2 (42:46):
Or no?

Speaker 3 (42:46):
I made something up?

Speaker 1 (42:48):
Okay, yeah, Randall changing his answer according to Taste of Home.
Asking for medium rare blank is how you order a
steak that's between medium rare and medium?

Speaker 4 (43:00):
Can I?

Speaker 3 (43:00):
Can? I? I have a question?

Speaker 13 (43:02):
Do you think in the future there could be the
hash marks for like the film for the fill in
the blank questions? There can be enough spaces why not?

Speaker 1 (43:13):
I don't want to give you that hint. When I
want to give you that hint, I'll tell you, like
this nine letter true. If I feel like the question
is too hard, that's a little bit extra that I'll
give you.

Speaker 5 (43:23):
I think I think this question.

Speaker 1 (43:25):
Is too hard. We could use a little Okay, Brody
wants this perfect game. Taylin may be the only person
who gets this.

Speaker 9 (43:33):
One at Spencer when it's too easy.

Speaker 10 (43:36):
One thing about that SaaS press questions, like the most
common thing that you saspress.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
Four is like, t you talked about that event factoid.

Speaker 3 (43:46):
I know, but if you would have put it in
the question didn't make sense.

Speaker 1 (43:50):
We had four or seven people get it right, which
I feel good about that.

Speaker 4 (43:54):
Rutier seth geez.

Speaker 1 (43:58):
Is everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers. We
have saying medium, rare, well Chester, you're saying well done,
Chili saying well done. Randall sang medium, Taylan sang plus,
Yanni sang medium, Brody saying well, Taylan got it the

(44:19):
correct answer. She was the only one.

Speaker 6 (44:23):
To get it.

Speaker 4 (44:23):
That was my first guess, just being a smartass.

Speaker 6 (44:26):
Ye, And then what happened.

Speaker 4 (44:28):
I just thought, I don't know, would you realize I
imagine someone sitting in a restaurant saying the word plus,
uh huh, and it just sounded like so unsophisticated.

Speaker 1 (44:36):
Medium rare tamp is considered one thirty to one thirty five,
while medium is one forty one forty five. So medium
rare plus is aiming for one thirty five to one forty.
But according to an article in the Restaurant Manifesto, most
kitchens will be annoyed if you order a steak to
that level of specificity. They say it's a designation that

(44:57):
should be only used in select steakhouses and not your
local diner or Texas roadhouse. Taylor tell us about what
would happen when someone would order a medium rare plus.

Speaker 2 (45:06):
Well, in my experience, it's been a stern conversation of
tell them we don't.

Speaker 1 (45:12):
With the customer, we don't do that.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
No, no, no, go back into the kitchen. Oh say so,
and so they want mediumware plus And then you kind
of stand there like and wait for them to respond
like absolutely.

Speaker 3 (45:22):
Not, okay, absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
So do you do you tell the customer that they
don't get medium ware plus or you just give it
to him. You're like, here, it is mediumware plus.

Speaker 4 (45:29):
We did it just for you.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
Kind of glaze over it unless they raise raise an eyebrow.

Speaker 1 (45:36):
There you go, well done, Brody nine correct answers couldn't
come up with medium rare plus. What happens next is
Brody gets to choose where the five hundred dollars from
Meat Eater goes. Brody, what's it gonna be? Uh?

Speaker 8 (45:49):
Coloradam's for responsible wildlife management?

Speaker 1 (45:52):
What are the guys going on over there right now?

Speaker 8 (45:54):
They've got a battle going on over the people that
are trying to attack various forms of hunting, so they
need all the help they.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
Can get five hundred dollars going their way. Well done, Brody.
Randall should have stuck with your joke answer of medium
rare plaus and we'd be doing overtimer.

Speaker 4 (46:09):
But you know, had I gotten that last question right,
then I would have been mad about question nine and
because it would have cost me my perfect game. But
now the fred Eichler question didn't cost me my perfect game.
I wouldn't have gotten it anyway, So I feel great.
Brodie didn't get a perfect game. I'm back on an
even keel. Let's play another round.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
Good for you, Randall, join us next time for more
Meat Eater Trivia, The only game show where conservation always wins.
