Speaker 1 (00:07):
This podcast. Welcome to Meet Eater Trivia, the only game

and today we're joined by Brody, Corey, Alyssa, Logan, Nate,
and Sarah. This is a ten round quiz show with
questions from meat Eater's four verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation,
and cooking. And there's a prize. Meat Eater will donate
(00:29):
five hundred dollars to the conservation organization of the winners
choosing for the stat of the week. This week we
have a visual stat. This is via a Reddit user
named Keith who listens to the show. He tracked down
over one hundred thousand dollars in Trivia donations and made
this chart showing who gives money to where. Take a
(00:49):
look at that. What stands out to you, Brody about
your donations. You've given thirty thousand dollars to conservation. You
love mule Deer.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Well, yeah, I'm trying to figure out how this thing
is like set up.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Well, you're the top line. Everything in that top line
is money you have given. You you are single handedly
You've You've given ninety percent of Meat Eaters Trivia donation
money to the Mule Deer Foundation ninety The money that's
gone there, it's.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Been via you. Wow, Like Spencer, dude, you.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
And Yanni and Randall really liked Colorado trying to fight
the lion hunting.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
And access initiative is where I gave them most.
Speaker 1 (01:30):

the la I should should be thanking.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, man, that's an impressive people.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
This is good.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Keith did did wonderful work there. Uh Randal, this stuck
out to me. He's given the most money in the
organization to NWTF and he killed his first turkey last spring.
That's a guy who just loves turkeys for the for
the love of turkeys, not even killing him.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
So that's Kentucky blooding him.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Must be you, You, Yanni and Randall. Though, Brody, you
guys do it.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
I'd like to you know, what I'd like to see
is how many different ones we've donated to, like in total,
including all the little guys.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Sure.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
What's impressive is Brody and Randall have donated more individually
than thirty other people combined. But you know what that
I didn't notice that until big brains over there.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yeah, so I haven't.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Gotten that hat from Mule Deer Foundation yet.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Okay, well you just remind him you've sent him forty
five hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
You should group there and then do a lifetime membership
and get like a free gun or something.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
M hm. Now, Randall's given a lot of money to
his former employer, their TRCP. That's called it kickback. He
just really respects the work they're doing over there. That's
what that chart tells us. All Right, I f a
Q this week, send me your I f A use it.
Trivia at the medeater dot com, Chris Rail says, can
(02:53):
Canadians Can Canadians win listener question of the Week? Yes
they can, Chris, they have won it in the past.
If we can't, we've had people win beyond North America.
If we can't get you the board game, we will
get you a gift card instead, because I know shipping
to Canada is like what thirty five dollars some of
e commerce people it is dollars. So we'll give you
(03:14):
a nice, hefty gift card if we can't get you
that board game. That way, you don't have to think
about shipping so much. How much FHF SEF do you
send to Canada?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Nate?
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Almost all of it's through wholesale, so Canadians they can
get some chef, all right.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
The Shelby Index today is a four, so our winner
should get eight correct answers. And with that we're onto
the game of trivia. Play the drop fill. Look, I
need to know what I stand to win everything?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
How's that? Just tend to win everything?
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Game?
Speaker 1 (03:56):
On Suckers Question one, the topic is fishing, and this
will be multiple choice. According to san Wan rod Works,
this is the most common fly rod length? Is it
seven foot, eight foot, nine foot or ten foot? According
(04:17):
to san Wan Rodworks, this is the most common fly
rod length seven foot, eight foot, nine foot ten foot.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That seems like kind of like, I'm not trashing this company.
I don't know them, but it's kind of an obscure.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
According to m Well, there were a lot of fly
rod brands that would say this same exact thing. I
just assigned it to San Juan Rodworks. I had to
pick somebody. A lot of fly fishing companies too. I
would see it on their website saying this same thing.
So this is the most common fly rod length. Your
(04:52):
four choices, seven foot, eight foot nine foot?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Did you really sweat this one? Hard? Man?
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Dripping over here?
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Corey quick to answer. Nate has no confidence going into
question one. I have a hunch Sarah's got this one too. Yeah,
I think so. It's everybody ready, go ahead and reveal
your answers. Nate says nine, Logan says eight. Sarah and
Corey say nine. ALYSSA seven, Brody nine. The correct answer
(05:25):
is nine foot. It would have been like fifty years ago, either,
what do you think years ago? According to wild water
fly Fishing, six to eight foot rods are short rods,
nine foot rods are standard rods, and ten plus are
(05:47):
long rods. Field and Stream calls the nine foot five
weight the classic all around trout rod. They say that
length and weight is big enough to handle a twenty
inch trout while still being light enough to have fun
eight inches. How many nine foot rods do you own?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Brody?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I don't know. I mean, I don't have as much
stuff as I used.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Is that the most common rye?
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Half a dozen?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Is that the most common rod?
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's what you're gonna put in your client's hands every time,
unless you're fishing like some teeny little stream or something
like that.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Or same for you, Corey.
Speaker 7 (06:20):
Yeah, man, I probably have half a dozen, but I
probably have another half a dozen that are just broken
collecting dust in my fee too, because I don't want
to pay the stocking fee to have them warranty.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
To just send them in. And you got a brand
new one.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Yeah, well it's expensive.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
Now, Yeah, you just buy a brand new cheap Oh
that's gonna break just as hard as an expensive run so.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
A former fly rod guides agree. Nine foot most common
length question two. The topic is the outdoors. This next
great question is via Greg Parsons. This candy was invented
in nineteen thirty one and has a rapper that features
outdoor scenes such as fishing, archery, and hiking. Uh, what's
(07:01):
the category outdoor stores? This candy was invented in nineteen
thirty one and has a rapper that features outdoor scenes
such as fishing, archery, and hiking. The room is stumped.
You have six blank whiteboards among our players. This candy
(07:23):
was invented in nineteen thirty one and has a rapper
that features outdoor scenes such as fishing. Does this candy
still arouse and hiking?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Is this candy still around?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Not going to give you any But do you think
I would ask the question if this candy disappeared in
like the nineteen fifties. I mean, like maybe maybe I
got this one?
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Does it still feature outdoor scenes?
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Not going to tell you anything else? J makes he
has it. I like, go, did you get a question?
Speaker 5 (07:54):
One?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Right?
Speaker 5 (07:54):
May?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Okay. This candy was invented in nineteen thirty one. It
has a rapper that features outdoor scenes such as fishing, archery,
and hiking. Nate's the only player to come up with
an answer so far. I'm gone, okay, do you like
your answer?
Speaker 3 (08:10):
No?
Speaker 8 (08:11):
But I'm just trying to think of something that might
have been from nineteen thirty one, which you guy, which
I wasn't around there?
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Nate is anxiously wanting to see your whiteboard, and they disagree.
Oh no, I think that okay. Logan likes Nate's answer.
This candy was invented in nineteen thirty one, and the
wrapper that features the outdoor scenes such as fishing, archery,
(08:41):
and hiking.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Yeah. I want to give a hint, but I don't
want to give a hint.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
I don't give a hint.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
I don't know if I'm right.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
They would prefer to win the game. Then give a hint,
Brody strug. The more I think about it, dude, Logan
and Nate have declared Nate's answer correct.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
I'm pretty excited about this.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Do you have an answer, Brody?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I do. I don't think it's right.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Is everybody ready go ahead and reveal your answers? Nate
says tootsie pop, Logan says good and plenty Sarah without
an answer. Cordy says worthers, Alyssa says bazooka gum, Brody,
Tutsi roll. The correct answer is Tutsi pop.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Got that rude?
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Now, I think it's technically a Tutsi roll pop.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Yeah, Like, listen, you're talking about no.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
Dude, I just remember you had to like find a star.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
We are not what we are not going to give
that to Brody. Yeah, and he's he's just I forgot
about the The most famous scene on the Tutsi Pop
packaging is the little boy dressed as a Native American
who's shooting an arrow at a star. About thirty percent
of Tutsi pops have it. It's just an urban legend
(10:11):
that Tutsi Pop would give you a free sucker in
exchange for the special rappers, and no one is sure
how the tall tale started. Adding to the confusion is
that some businesses do actually honor the fake promotion, but
it's not endorsed by TUTSI pop my barber did growing up.
Oh okay, he was just doing that out of the
kindness of his heart. Well, SHOOTI Pop. She she was
(10:31):
not getting any kickbacks from Tutsy.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
What a lady.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Good for her.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Good for you, Nate, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Getting that one. Question three, the topic is wildlife. What
continent are burmese pythons native to?
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Well?
Speaker 1 (10:48):
What continent are burmese pythons native to? Me? Lissa has
an injury? What happened to Lissa Marks? What continent are
burmese python's native to? This is question three? You have
(11:10):
this one, right, Nate.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
I feel like you're trying to trick me, but you're
never trying to trick me. What do you think is
this trick question?
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Or No?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I'm not going to answer, like, how could it be
a trick question? It's one of seven continents.
Speaker 6 (11:25):
Yeah, but I think you can't be like, oh, they're.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Actually from Mars.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
That that would be me trying to just see of tranquility.
What continent are Burmese python's native to? Sarah, do you
have this one?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Right?
Speaker 7 (11:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Yeah, I don't know. Corey is torn down there? How many?
How many continents do you have written down to? Okay,
it's not too late a list that you can change
your answer.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I know every time I do that, I end up
being wrong.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Right, what con Bromese pythons native to?
Speaker 2 (12:06):
All right, I'm doing it all well.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Corey, are you ready? Let's go, Alyssa are you ready?
Go ahead and reveal your answers? Nate and Logan and
Sarah and Corey say Asia. Alyssa says Australia. He says Asia.
The correct answer is Asia. Burmese pythons are named after
the country of Burma, which is now known as mean Mar.
(12:32):
Although they are one of America's most destructive invasive species,
they are listed as vulnerable in their native range. Their
populations in Southeast Asia are down thirty percent in the
last few decades due to habitat loss and over harvesting.
Question for the topic is cooking. This next great question
is via Chris Rose. Serious Eat defines this culinary technique
(12:56):
as quote, slow cooking a steak or roast before finishing
it off on a hot surface. Serious Eats defines this
culinary technique as slow cooking a steak or roast before
finishing it off on a hot surface. Logan, Nate, Sarah
(13:21):
all quick to answer. They all look confident. Corey, do
you have this one right? I believe so? Okay, Brody
has now joined them, and Alisza sir no, I'm just theorizing.
Huh is everybody ready? Serious Eats defines this culinary technique
as slow cooking a steak or roast before finishing it
(13:42):
off on a hot surface. Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Nate and Logan and Sarah. Everybody says reverse seer.
Everybody got it right. The correct answer is reverse seer.
Serious Eats claims this is the best way to get
a medium rare steak that also has a crisp crust.
(14:02):
Danielle Pruitt says it's best done with a thick cut steak,
whole tender loin, or backstrap. For more on this process,
go read her article on the meadeater dot Com called
the Correct way to reverse sear a steak.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I end up splattering oil all over my kitchen when
I do this? Yeah, what am I doing wrong?
Speaker 3 (14:20):
It? Grease cover for your pants? Go thank you.
Speaker 8 (14:27):
It only kind of works though, because then I don't know,
it's just I feel like it kind of steams it
a little bit more when you do that.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Then grated one.
Speaker 8 (14:35):
Yeah, yeah, but I mean you're still like you put
it on, it splashes, then you put that.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
It does help for sure.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Still getting grease on something that you have to just
part of cooking.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
Might the stove?
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Question five? The topic is woodsmanschip. This forestry term refers
to the cut that kills a tree by removing a
strip of bark around the entire circumference of a trunk.
Brody and n had their answers before I finished the question.
This forestry term refers to the cut that kills a
(15:08):
tree by removing a strip of bark around the entire
circumference of a trunk. Brody, have you ever done this
to a tree?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Hmmm? Like not really, Like maybe as a kid, I
like messed around and to a sapling or something like
kill a tree.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah. This forestry term refers to the cut that kills
a tree by removing a strip of bark around the
entire circumference of a trunk. My dad would always warn
me when I was mowing the lawn not to get
too close to the small like popcan size trees. Could
be pretty easy to rub all that bark off there
and do this exact thing accidentally.
Speaker 8 (15:49):
Kind of crazy that kills the whole tree.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Sensitive asylum and flom wow questions get to be a still.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
This forestry term refers to the cut that kills a
tree by removing a strip of bark around the entire
circumference of a tree. We have a picture after this
to show you what that looks like. See if anyone
in this room has seen that before.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
When I was I was driving back from Michigan yesterday
and to stay awake, I was thinking of trivia questions.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
I would oh, Wow, okay, Nate, you're gonna host some days. Wow,
you start writing that dream cometry. You're ready, This will
be your seat.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
I got four good ones about twelve the way there.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Nate and Brody very confident. Are other four players not
so much? Do you guys give up?
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah, go ahead and reveal your answers, Nate says, girdle
logan stripping Sarah without an answer. Corey putting alyssa d
bark Brody says girdle. The correct answer is girdle cut
or ring bark.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Girdles.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
A girdle cut kills a tree within a couple of years,
but leaves it standing. It's more cost effective, requires less labor,
and is safer than dropping an entire tree. It also
creates better habitat for some animals that use dead trees,
such as cavity nesting birds and mammals. Additionally, the slow
death of girdle cut trees make them prime hosts for
(17:23):
oyster mushrooms and chicken of the woods mushrooms. There is
a look at a group of very mature hardwoods that
have been girdle cut, and they are now going to
die a slow death. That's an aggressive girdle cut. I
feel like sometimes you see girdle cuts that are like
an inch that dude did like a whole foot.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
I feel like you gotta do because I tried it
when I was a kid. We moved out it after
a year, but I don't think I got deep enough.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Why were you trying it just for fun?
Speaker 3 (17:48):
I learned about it. I thought it'd be cool.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Yeah, you're gonna go girdle your trees. All right, Phil,
We're halfway through the game of trivia. Give us a
scoreboard update.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
You're at halftime.
Speaker 5 (17:57):
Everybody on the Alyssa has one point, Logan has two,
Sarah and Corey have three, Brody Henderson has.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Four, and with a perfect game.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
At halftime, it's Big.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Nate Mason with five. Wow.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Wow, they do call him that, Big Nate.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
I mean, I've only heard Randall call him that, but
I'm you know, Randall's not here. I'm trying to appreciate
his spirit.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
And Rody, how are your headphones?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I got some phantom like clicking and buzzing going on
in my right ear.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Winning is it headphones related?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I can't figure it out.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
I think so huh.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
Afterwards, you guys are getting static. I'm not getting any
I got nothing, Okay, all right?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Question six, I'm gonna have to play with that. I
can't stand it.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Question six. We've now we've now tied a hand behind
Brody's back. He's gone headphones list Question six. The topic
is natural history. This next great question is via jud
couts Blank Biosciences grabbed headlines in twenty twenty four when
they claimed to de extinct dire wolves.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Blank Biosciences grabbed headlines in twenty twenty four when they
claimed to de extinct dire wolves.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
We were talking about this this week too.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Wow, dude, you have sat in a room with the
guy you have Brody. Actually those kind of softball for you.
Nate is confident he is starting the game six for six.
Blank Biosciences grabbed headlines in twenty twenty four when they
claimed to de extinct wolves.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
I'd love they did the Ivory build Woodpecker.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Maybe the guy see how they do with the dire wolves.
Brody was within arms reach the folks from this company,
and I can't.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Figure it out which one.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
What are you most excited about, Like if you could,
if you were in charge, Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I don't know. I rebuild Woodpecker is a good one.
That one seems like it would be low stakes, like
you're not going to uh set North America on fire
if those just come back.
Speaker 6 (20:11):
I feel like bringing back stuff that just died out
because it just died out.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
I don't know, but things that we like actively whacked.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
That's that's a good way to look at it. Ivy
will ivybuild Woodpeckers. We interviewed the guys who made the
documentary Listers on Meaded Radio a few months back, and
they are now in search of an ivory build woodpecker.
They started their next documentary, so we'll hear from them
at some point on the show. I'm not going to
get it. Brody has given tough is everybody ready, don't care?
(20:42):
Go ahead and reveal your answers. Nate says, colossal thing,
it was massive mammoth, Sarah without an answer, Corey says
colossal Alyssle Alyssa, and Brody without an answer. The correct
answer is Colossal Biosciences. Colossal bios Sciences has created two
litters of supposed dire wolves, with the first born in
(21:05):
October twenty twenty four and the second in January twenty
twenty five. The pups are being cared for at a
secret facility, and the chief animal Officer, Matt James, wouldn't
let me guess its location even after the microphones were off.
For more on this story, go listen to episodes five,
sixty four and seven to eleven of The Medeater podcast.
(21:25):
I think I know where those dire wolves.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Are oo Matt.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Matt wouldn't even Usually if I if I am trying
to get info out of someone, I'm like, just let
me guess that North I don't know anyway, They'll let
me guess. But Matt, he was tied up tight, would
not entertain my guess. Question seven, the topic is gear.
This is the product recommendation service from the New York Times,
(21:50):
which has reviewed items such as headlamps, tents, pocket knives,
hiking boots, and fishing reels. Sarah has her answer, Logan
and Nate joining her. This is the product recommendation service

(22:12):
as headlamps, tense, pocket knives, hiking boots, and fishing reels.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
People like read the New York Times.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
This thing is highly respected.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
It's a pretty decent gift guide too. Okay, I can
see its layout.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
I have looked at their reviews for these items, and
they did a decent job. It was like, probably a
little far afield for them to tell you what the
six best fishing wheels are this year, but they didn't
look dumb. I mean, if you're looking for like a
Mattress recommendation, Mattress, if you want to slow cooker. Mm hmm,
exactly like that a rice cooker. It's not even a hint.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
It says it's a product recommendation.
Speaker 8 (22:55):
I would say, though it is all still affiliate base.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Things are in anything that you look at.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Apparently I don't use this service shop. I don't know
what the hell it is.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
If you want to find your next power bank to
charge your phone, this is probably the thing that you
would find if you google your question. Top resolved. This
is the product recommendation service from The New York Times,
which has reviewed items such as headlamps, tents, pocket knives,
hiking boots and fishing reels. Logan, do you have this right? Nate?
(23:33):

the New York Times in twenty sixteen for thirty million dollars.
Their stated goal is to combine independent research with over

the ruse that he'll use it for quail hunting in
this two thousand and seven movie. Phil, you love this
movie right, It's in my top ten? Okay, Wow? There's
a big hint top ten.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
There's only nine other ones.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
You think it's in the like closer to ten or
closer to one, closer.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
To ten, But I mean it's still it's up there.
It's yeah, well you already said. Two thousand and seven,
I saw this movie and There and No Country for
Old Men in the same week, and it kind of
rewired my brain a little bit.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
No Country over there?
Speaker 8 (25:46):
Country?
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Did No Country for Old Men make it in your
top ten as well?
Speaker 5 (25:51):
I don't have a definitive top ten Spencer. It's a
fluid it's a fluid list. You could be like, it's
upteen in your top yeah, my fourteen in my top ten.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Daniel day Lewis attempts to buy an oil rich ranch
under the ruse that he'll use it for quail hunting
in this two thousand and seven movie. Brody, you have
this one, right?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I think?
Speaker 1 (26:10):
So, okay, you need to do some catching up to
Nate over the year. Well, you know who doesn't think
he has it? Anybody besides Brody have it right? Logan? Potentially,
Sarah No, Corey.
Speaker 7 (26:24):
I've seen this movie a handful of times in the
back of my butt somewhere.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Is everybody ready, I think, so go ahead your answers.
Nate says Tycoon Logan, there will be blood. Sarah without
an answer, Corey without an answer, Alyssa, last of the Mohicans, Brody,
there will be blood. The correct answer is there will
be blood. Daniel day Lewis and his son hiked to
(26:52):
the southern California ranch in nineteen eleven and ask the
landowner for hunting permission. Although he's there to secretly look
for oil, which he finds, he does kill a handful
of quail with his side by side twelve. Gage day
Lewis then tells the rancher that he'd like to buy
the place so he can keep bird hunting here with
his son. There's a there is a picture there, Daniel
(27:12):
da Lewis with his uh, pretty shotgun. Fantastic film.
Speaker 8 (27:16):
But yeah, questions for old men come out like at
the same time or like a similar time, because I
saw those movies very close.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
They were both buying for the Oscar for sure.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
When Phil told this story there that he watched him
in the same week, well.
Speaker 8 (27:29):
No, I just I had the very similar experience where
I saw those movies really close together and that affirmed
that what I had written down was in line Top.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Ten movie from Phil Taylor.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Over there?
Speaker 1 (27:40):
All right, Phil, give us a scoreboard update with two
questions to.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Go, uh, well, who the game?
Speaker 5 (27:47):
Unless Nate blows it before, I will say effectively over
But I can't play the sound effect yet because Brody
has five points and Nate has seven.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Okay, here's a two point difference with two questions. Steve
has demanded that this room needs more paper towels, and
so someone has hooked him up. Do you know why?
Speaker 5 (28:07):
Because he's the one who's always spilling every gosh darn
thing he puts in front of him.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Who put that up there?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Phil?
Speaker 5 (28:13):
I think it was him. It was either him Randall.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
You have a roll of paper towels that How tall
are these ceilings? Ten foot ceilings? They're pretty high.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
Not on camera for anybody.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Paper towels are nine feet in the air. Question nine.
The topic is fishing. These two states are responsible for
ninety four percent of the country's American lobster harvest. Brody
very quick to answer, Oh, he's revisiting his answer though.
(28:44):
Question this is question nine. We would need Nate to
get these wrong and you to get these right to
go to overtime. But if Nate can get this one correct,
he'll have secured the victory. These two states are responsible
for ninety four percent of the country's American lobster harvest. Nate,
(29:06):
you love your answer.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
I'm good on one, Iffy on the second.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Okay, Corey, do you have this one right? It doesn't matter.
Still keep up with Brody over here. Oh yeah, he
doesn't love it the time.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
I love to ask a couple of questions.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
These two states.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
You got your answers written down?
Speaker 1 (29:25):
I do for four percent of the country recreational commercial.
I think the answer would be the same either way.
This is counting commercial, certainly.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
I don't know that. If it was great, like I know, dude, recreational.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
May get after it.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
These two states are responsible for ninety four percent of
the country's American lobster harvest, not Montana. Is everybody ready,
go ahead and reveal your answers? We have Nate saying,
May in Massachusetts, Logan, Maine, Louisiana, Sarah Maine, Massachusetts, Cory, Alaska,
(30:08):
and Maine, Alyssa, Maine and Maryland. Brody says Minnesota, Maine, Maine. Well,
that's Maine is and then Hampshire Maine, and New Hampshire's Maine.
The two states are Maine and Massachusetts. Nate has won
(30:30):
himself the game. There's non host and left there's hardly
any coastline. Yeah, get him, Sarah. It's like it's like
twenty mile map. Main eighty two percent of the country's
(30:51):
lobster harvest, with Massachusetts responsible for twelve percent. That's followed
by New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Connecticut, and New York.
It's estimated that Maine's lobster economy is worth over half
a billion dollars. So New Hampshire was in third place, Brody,
but a distance distant.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
If it was recreational, man, I bet you Florida would.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Be number onebster. That's not an American lobster.
Speaker 6 (31:16):
That's different, Sy, I didn't even catch that.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
You said American.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
And that's the big red one that you pick out
of your tank when you go to a nice seafood place.
All right, here's the correct answer review so far. One
was nine foot Rod two Tutsi Pop three Asia, four
Reverse Seer, five, girdle cut six, Colossal Biosciences seven wire cutter, eight,
(31:42):
there will be blood. Nine was Maine in Massachusetts. Phillip's
look at the scoreboard one more time before question ten.
Speaker 5 (31:51):
Here it is Nate has secured the victory, but behind
him are Sarah and Brody with five and Corey with
four and Alissa with one.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Question ten, the topic is conservation in when is Earth Day?
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Every day?
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Looking for the exact date? When is Earth Day? Brodie?
Do you have this right? Oh? Wow, Nate? Do you
have this right?
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Total?
Speaker 1 (32:20):
Is anybody as confident as Brody?
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (32:23):
No, I'm gonna have five guesses. One guy who knows it?
Why do you know the Earth?
Speaker 2 (32:30):
I think everybody? Come on well, disappointed in this room?
Speaker 1 (32:37):
Yes, Sarah, do you know what Earth Day is? No?
I don't.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Okay, same day every year? Everyone knows when Christmas is.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
I asked a similar question that was what month is
ourbor Day?
Speaker 6 (32:50):
That's what I'm thinking?
Speaker 1 (32:52):
When is Earth Day? It's everybody ready? See Nate is
in his phone. You're trying to figure out where you're
gonna donate.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Yeah, I've never prepared for this.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Go ahead and reveal your answers. Have Nate date saying
June sixth, Logan April nineteen Sarah May fifteen, Corey April twenty,
Alyssa April twenty, Brody April twenty second. Brody got it.
The correct answer is April twenty second, and a handful
(33:25):
of you within what three days of the right answer.
Birthday was created by Senator gay Lord Nelson in nineteen seventy.
The first Earth Day saw an overwhelming turnout, with an
estimated twenty million Americans participating. The movement was so powerful
that the Environmental Protection Agency was created later that year
thanks to the public support of the first earth Day.
(33:48):
April twenty two. All right, that makes Nate our winner
with eight correct answers. Nate, where is your five hundred
dollars donation going?
Speaker 3 (33:56):
I'm gonna this might be a misfire.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Their website looks a little out of date, but we're
gonna go with Hunters of Maryland.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
Maryland's always pushing.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
Kind of some bs, like anti hunting, anti gun type stuff, and.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
These guys look like they're doing the Lord's work.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
You mean, Maryland's always pushing.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Like Maryland as a whole.
Speaker 4 (34:14):
It's just it's a it's a mess, dude, like the
state of Maryland.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Yeah, Nate grew up in Ohio, so I didn't grow
up in Ohio, Maryland. Spend most of my time in
Maryland hunting politics.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
So yeah, dude, hopefully they're a good organizations.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Okay, five hundred dollars going to what's it called Hunters
of Maine.
Speaker 6 (34:34):
No, Hunters of Maryland, Hunters of Maryland.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
I'm sorry. This might be the biggest donation they get.
Speaker 6 (34:39):
This based on their website, most likely.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
Nate Mason's name. Well done, Nate good victory eight points.

including all the little guys.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Sure.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
What's impressive is Brody and Randall have donated more individually
than thirty other people combined. But you know what that
I didn't notice that until big brains over there.

Trivia at the medeater dot com, Chris Rail says, can
(02:53):
Canadians Can Canadians win listener question of the Week? Yes
they can, Chris, they have won it in the past.
If we can't, we've had people win beyond North America.
If we can't get you the board game, we will
get you a gift card instead, because I know shipping
to Canada is like what thirty five dollars some of
e commerce people it is dollars. So we'll give you
(03:14):
a nice, hefty gift card if we can't get you
that board game. That way, you don't have to think
about shipping so much. How much FHF SEF do you
send to Canada?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Nate?
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Almost all of it's through wholesale, so Canadians they can
get some chef, all right.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
The Shelby Index today is a four, so our winner
should get eight correct answers. And with that we're onto
the game of trivia. Play the drop fill. Look, I
need to know what I stand to win everything?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
How's that? Just tend to win everything?
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Game?
Speaker 1 (03:56):
On Suckers Question one, the topic is fishing, and this
will be multiple choice. According to san Wan rod Works,
this is the most common fly rod length? Is it
seven foot, eight foot, nine foot or ten foot? According
(04:17):
to san Wan Rodworks, this is the most common fly
rod length seven foot, eight foot, nine foot ten foot.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That seems like kind of like, I'm not trashing this company.
I don't know them, but it's kind of an obscure.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
According to m Well, there were a lot of fly
rod brands that would say this same exact thing. I
just assigned it to San Juan Rodworks. I had to
pick somebody. A lot of fly fishing companies too. I
would see it on their website saying this same thing.
So this is the most common fly rod length. Your
(04:52):
four choices, seven foot, eight foot nine foot?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Did you really sweat this one? Hard? Man?
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Dripping over here?
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Corey quick to answer. Nate has no confidence going into
question one. I have a hunch Sarah's got this one too. Yeah,
I think so. It's everybody ready, go ahead and reveal
your answers. Nate says nine, Logan says eight. Sarah and
Corey say nine. ALYSSA seven, Brody nine. The correct answer
(05:25):
is nine foot. It would have been like fifty years ago, either,
what do you think years ago? According to wild water
fly Fishing, six to eight foot rods are short rods,
nine foot rods are standard rods, and ten plus are
(05:47):
long rods. Field and Stream calls the nine foot five
weight the classic all around trout rod. They say that
length and weight is big enough to handle a twenty
inch trout while still being light enough to have fun
eight inches. How many nine foot rods do you own?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Brody?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I don't know. I mean, I don't have as much
stuff as I used.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Is that the most common rye?
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Half a dozen?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Is that the most common rod?
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's what you're gonna put in your client's hands every time,
unless you're fishing like some teeny little stream or something
like that.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Or same for you, Corey.
Speaker 7 (06:20):
Yeah, man, I probably have half a dozen, but I
probably have another half a dozen that are just broken
collecting dust in my fee too, because I don't want
to pay the stocking fee to have them warranty.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
To just send them in. And you got a brand
new one.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Yeah, well it's expensive.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
Now, Yeah, you just buy a brand new cheap Oh
that's gonna break just as hard as an expensive run so.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
A former fly rod guides agree. Nine foot most common
length question two. The topic is the outdoors. This next
great question is via Greg Parsons. This candy was invented
in nineteen thirty one and has a rapper that features
outdoor scenes such as fishing, archery, and hiking. Uh, what's
(07:01):
the category outdoor stores? This candy was invented in nineteen
thirty one and has a rapper that features outdoor scenes
such as fishing, archery, and hiking. The room is stumped.
You have six blank whiteboards among our players. This candy
(07:23):
was invented in nineteen thirty one and has a rapper
that features outdoor scenes such as fishing. Does this candy
still arouse and hiking?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Is this candy still around?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Not going to give you any But do you think
I would ask the question if this candy disappeared in
like the nineteen fifties. I mean, like maybe maybe I
got this one?
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Does it still feature outdoor scenes?
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Not going to tell you anything else? J makes he
has it. I like, go, did you get a question?
Speaker 5 (07:54):
One?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Right?
Speaker 5 (07:54):
May?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Okay. This candy was invented in nineteen thirty one. It
has a rapper that features outdoor scenes such as fishing, archery,
and hiking. Nate's the only player to come up with
an answer so far. I'm gone, okay, do you like
your answer?
Speaker 3 (08:10):
No?
Speaker 8 (08:11):
But I'm just trying to think of something that might
have been from nineteen thirty one, which you guy, which
I wasn't around there?
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Nate is anxiously wanting to see your whiteboard, and they disagree.
Oh no, I think that okay. Logan likes Nate's answer.
This candy was invented in nineteen thirty one, and the
wrapper that features the outdoor scenes such as fishing, archery,
(08:41):
and hiking.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Yeah. I want to give a hint, but I don't
want to give a hint.
Speaker 8 (08:44):
I don't give a hint.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
I don't know if I'm right.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
They would prefer to win the game. Then give a hint,
Brody strug. The more I think about it, dude, Logan
and Nate have declared Nate's answer correct.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
I'm pretty excited about this.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Do you have an answer, Brody?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
I do. I don't think it's right.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Is everybody ready go ahead and reveal your answers? Nate
says tootsie pop, Logan says good and plenty Sarah without
an answer. Cordy says worthers, Alyssa says bazooka gum, Brody,
Tutsi roll. The correct answer is Tutsi pop.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Got that rude?
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Now, I think it's technically a Tutsi roll pop.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Yeah, Like, listen, you're talking about no.
Speaker 6 (09:43):
Dude, I just remember you had to like find a star.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
We are not what we are not going to give
that to Brody. Yeah, and he's he's just I forgot
about the The most famous scene on the Tutsi Pop
packaging is the little boy dressed as a Native American
who's shooting an arrow at a star. About thirty percent
of Tutsi pops have it. It's just an urban legend
(10:11):
that Tutsi Pop would give you a free sucker in
exchange for the special rappers, and no one is sure
how the tall tale started. Adding to the confusion is
that some businesses do actually honor the fake promotion, but
it's not endorsed by TUTSI pop my barber did growing up.
Oh okay, he was just doing that out of the
kindness of his heart. Well, SHOOTI Pop. She she was
(10:31):
not getting any kickbacks from Tutsy.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
What a lady.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Good for her.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Good for you, Nate, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Getting that one. Question three, the topic is wildlife. What
continent are burmese pythons native to?
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Well?
Speaker 1 (10:48):
What continent are burmese pythons native to? Me? Lissa has
an injury? What happened to Lissa Marks? What continent are
burmese python's native to? This is question three? You have
(11:10):
this one, right, Nate.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
I feel like you're trying to trick me, but you're
never trying to trick me. What do you think is
this trick question?
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Or No?
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I'm not going to answer, like, how could it be
a trick question? It's one of seven continents.
Speaker 6 (11:25):
Yeah, but I think you can't be like, oh, they're.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Actually from Mars.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
That that would be me trying to just see of tranquility.
What continent are Burmese python's native to? Sarah, do you
have this one?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Right?
Speaker 7 (11:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Yeah, I don't know. Corey is torn down there? How many?
How many continents do you have written down to? Okay,
it's not too late a list that you can change
your answer.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I know every time I do that, I end up
being wrong.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Right, what con Bromese pythons native to?
Speaker 2 (12:06):
All right, I'm doing it all well.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Corey, are you ready? Let's go, Alyssa are you ready?
Go ahead and reveal your answers? Nate and Logan and
Sarah and Corey say Asia. Alyssa says Australia. He says Asia.
The correct answer is Asia. Burmese pythons are named after
the country of Burma, which is now known as mean Mar.
(12:32):
Although they are one of America's most destructive invasive species,
they are listed as vulnerable in their native range. Their
populations in Southeast Asia are down thirty percent in the
last few decades due to habitat loss and over harvesting.
Question for the topic is cooking. This next great question
is via Chris Rose. Serious Eat defines this culinary technique
(12:56):
as quote, slow cooking a steak or roast before finishing
it off on a hot surface. Serious Eats defines this
culinary technique as slow cooking a steak or roast before
finishing it off on a hot surface. Logan, Nate, Sarah
(13:21):
all quick to answer. They all look confident. Corey, do
you have this one right? I believe so? Okay, Brody
has now joined them, and Alisza sir no, I'm just theorizing.
Huh is everybody ready? Serious Eats defines this culinary technique
as slow cooking a steak or roast before finishing it
(13:42):
off on a hot surface. Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Nate and Logan and Sarah. Everybody says reverse seer.
Everybody got it right. The correct answer is reverse seer.
Serious Eats claims this is the best way to get
a medium rare steak that also has a crisp crust.
(14:02):
Danielle Pruitt says it's best done with a thick cut steak,
whole tender loin, or backstrap. For more on this process,
go read her article on the meadeater dot Com called
the Correct way to reverse sear a steak.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I end up splattering oil all over my kitchen when
I do this? Yeah, what am I doing wrong?
Speaker 3 (14:20):
It? Grease cover for your pants? Go thank you.
Speaker 8 (14:27):
It only kind of works though, because then I don't know,
it's just I feel like it kind of steams it
a little bit more when you do that.
Speaker 3 (14:33):
Then grated one.
Speaker 8 (14:35):
Yeah, yeah, but I mean you're still like you put
it on, it splashes, then you put that.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
It does help for sure.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Still getting grease on something that you have to just
part of cooking.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
Might the stove?
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Question five? The topic is woodsmanschip. This forestry term refers
to the cut that kills a tree by removing a
strip of bark around the entire circumference of a trunk.
Brody and n had their answers before I finished the question.
This forestry term refers to the cut that kills a
(15:08):
tree by removing a strip of bark around the entire
circumference of a trunk. Brody, have you ever done this
to a tree?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Hmmm? Like not really, Like maybe as a kid, I
like messed around and to a sapling or something like
kill a tree.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Yeah. This forestry term refers to the cut that kills
a tree by removing a strip of bark around the
entire circumference of a trunk. My dad would always warn
me when I was mowing the lawn not to get
too close to the small like popcan size trees. Could
be pretty easy to rub all that bark off there
and do this exact thing accidentally.
Speaker 8 (15:49):
Kind of crazy that kills the whole tree.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Sensitive asylum and flom wow questions get to be a still.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
This forestry term refers to the cut that kills a
tree by removing a strip of bark around the entire
circumference of a tree. We have a picture after this
to show you what that looks like. See if anyone
in this room has seen that before.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
When I was I was driving back from Michigan yesterday
and to stay awake, I was thinking of trivia questions.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
I would oh, Wow, okay, Nate, you're gonna host some days. Wow,
you start writing that dream cometry. You're ready, This will
be your seat.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
I got four good ones about twelve the way there.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Nate and Brody very confident. Are other four players not
so much? Do you guys give up?
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah, go ahead and reveal your answers, Nate says, girdle
logan stripping Sarah without an answer. Corey putting alyssa d
bark Brody says girdle. The correct answer is girdle cut
or ring bark.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Girdles.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
A girdle cut kills a tree within a couple of years,
but leaves it standing. It's more cost effective, requires less labor,
and is safer than dropping an entire tree. It also
creates better habitat for some animals that use dead trees,
such as cavity nesting birds and mammals. Additionally, the slow
death of girdle cut trees make them prime hosts for
(17:23):
oyster mushrooms and chicken of the woods mushrooms. There is
a look at a group of very mature hardwoods that
have been girdle cut, and they are now going to
die a slow death. That's an aggressive girdle cut. I
feel like sometimes you see girdle cuts that are like
an inch that dude did like a whole foot.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
I feel like you gotta do because I tried it
when I was a kid. We moved out it after
a year, but I don't think I got deep enough.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Why were you trying it just for fun?
Speaker 3 (17:48):
I learned about it. I thought it'd be cool.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Yeah, you're gonna go girdle your trees. All right, Phil,
We're halfway through the game of trivia. Give us a
scoreboard update.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
You're at halftime.
Speaker 5 (17:57):
Everybody on the Alyssa has one point, Logan has two,
Sarah and Corey have three, Brody Henderson has.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Four, and with a perfect game.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
At halftime, it's Big.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Nate Mason with five. Wow.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Wow, they do call him that, Big Nate.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
I mean, I've only heard Randall call him that, but
I'm you know, Randall's not here. I'm trying to appreciate
his spirit.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
And Rody, how are your headphones?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I got some phantom like clicking and buzzing going on
in my right ear.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Winning is it headphones related?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
I can't figure it out.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
I think so huh.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
Afterwards, you guys are getting static. I'm not getting any
I got nothing, Okay, all right?
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Question six, I'm gonna have to play with that. I
can't stand it.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Question six. We've now we've now tied a hand behind
Brody's back. He's gone headphones list Question six. The topic
is natural history. This next great question is via jud
couts Blank Biosciences grabbed headlines in twenty twenty four when
they claimed to de extinct dire wolves.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Blank Biosciences grabbed headlines in twenty twenty four when they
claimed to de extinct dire wolves.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
We were talking about this this week too.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Wow, dude, you have sat in a room with the
guy you have Brody. Actually those kind of softball for you.
Nate is confident he is starting the game six for six.
Blank Biosciences grabbed headlines in twenty twenty four when they
claimed to de extinct wolves.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
I'd love they did the Ivory build Woodpecker.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Maybe the guy see how they do with the dire wolves.
Brody was within arms reach the folks from this company,
and I can't.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Figure it out which one.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
What are you most excited about, Like if you could,
if you were in charge, Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
I don't know. I rebuild Woodpecker is a good one.
That one seems like it would be low stakes, like
you're not going to uh set North America on fire
if those just come back.
Speaker 6 (20:11):
I feel like bringing back stuff that just died out
because it just died out.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
I don't know, but things that we like actively whacked.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
That's that's a good way to look at it. Ivy
will ivybuild Woodpeckers. We interviewed the guys who made the
documentary Listers on Meaded Radio a few months back, and
they are now in search of an ivory build woodpecker.
They started their next documentary, so we'll hear from them
at some point on the show. I'm not going to
get it. Brody has given tough is everybody ready, don't care?
(20:42):
Go ahead and reveal your answers. Nate says, colossal thing,
it was massive mammoth, Sarah without an answer, Corey says
colossal Alyssle Alyssa, and Brody without an answer. The correct
answer is Colossal Biosciences. Colossal bios Sciences has created two
litters of supposed dire wolves, with the first born in
(21:05):
October twenty twenty four and the second in January twenty
twenty five. The pups are being cared for at a
secret facility, and the chief animal Officer, Matt James, wouldn't
let me guess its location even after the microphones were off.
For more on this story, go listen to episodes five,
sixty four and seven to eleven of The Medeater podcast.
(21:25):
I think I know where those dire wolves.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Are oo Matt.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Matt wouldn't even Usually if I if I am trying
to get info out of someone, I'm like, just let
me guess that North I don't know anyway, They'll let
me guess. But Matt, he was tied up tight, would
not entertain my guess. Question seven, the topic is gear.
This is the product recommendation service from the New York Times,
(21:50):
which has reviewed items such as headlamps, tents, pocket knives,
hiking boots, and fishing reels. Sarah has her answer, Logan
and Nate joining her. This is the product recommendation service

This thing is highly respected.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
It's a pretty decent gift guide too. Okay, I can
see its layout.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
I have looked at their reviews for these items, and
they did a decent job. It was like, probably a
little far afield for them to tell you what the
six best fishing wheels are this year, but they didn't
look dumb. I mean, if you're looking for like a
Mattress recommendation, Mattress, if you want to slow cooker. Mm hmm,
exactly like that a rice cooker. It's not even a hint.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
It says it's a product recommendation.
Speaker 8 (22:55):
I would say, though it is all still affiliate base.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Things are in anything that you look at.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Apparently I don't use this service shop. I don't know
what the hell it is.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
If you want to find your next power bank to
charge your phone, this is probably the thing that you
would find if you google your question. Top resolved. This
is the product recommendation service from The New York Times,

seven movie This might be where the Perfect Game comes
to an end.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Yeah, poor name, I always dip. I just don't know
culture annual.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Dave Lewis attempts to buy an oil rich ranch under
the ruse that he'll use it for quail hunting in
this two thousand and seven movie. Phil, you love this
movie right, It's in my top ten? Okay, Wow? There's
a big hint top ten.

closer to one, closer.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
To ten, But I mean it's still it's up there.
It's yeah, well you already said. Two thousand and seven,
I saw this movie and There and No Country for
Old Men in the same week, and it kind of
rewired my brain a little bit.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
No Country over there?
Speaker 8 (25:46):
Country?
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Did No Country for Old Men make it in your
top ten as well?
Speaker 5 (25:51):
I don't have a definitive top ten Spencer. It's a
fluid it's a fluid list. You could be like, it's
upteen in your top yeah, my fourteen in my top ten.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Daniel day Lewis attempts to buy an oil rich ranch
under the ruse that he'll use it for quail hunting
in this two thousand and seven movie. Brody, you have
this one, right?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I think?
Speaker 1 (26:10):
So, okay, you need to do some catching up to
Nate over the year. Well, you know who doesn't think
he has it? Anybody besides Brody have it right? Logan? Potentially,
Sarah No, Corey.
Speaker 7 (26:24):
I've seen this movie a handful of times in the
back of my butt somewhere.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Is everybody ready, I think, so go ahead your answers.
Nate says Tycoon Logan, there will be blood. Sarah without
an answer, Corey without an answer, Alyssa, last of the Mohicans, Brody,
there will be blood. The correct answer is there will
be blood. Daniel day Lewis and his son hiked to
(26:52):
the southern California ranch in nineteen eleven and ask the
landowner for hunting permission. Although he's there to secretly look
for oil, which he finds, he does kill a handful
of quail with his side by side twelve. Gage day
Lewis then tells the rancher that he'd like to buy
the place so he can keep bird hunting here with
his son. There's a there is a picture there, Daniel
(27:12):
da Lewis with his uh, pretty shotgun. Fantastic film.
Speaker 8 (27:16):
But yeah, questions for old men come out like at
the same time or like a similar time, because I
saw those movies very close.
Speaker 5 (27:24):
They were both buying for the Oscar for sure.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
When Phil told this story there that he watched him
in the same week, well.
Speaker 8 (27:29):
No, I just I had the very similar experience where
I saw those movies really close together and that affirmed
that what I had written down was in line Top.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Ten movie from Phil Taylor.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Over there?
Speaker 1 (27:40):
All right, Phil, give us a scoreboard update with two
questions to.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Go, uh, well, who the game?
Speaker 5 (27:47):
Unless Nate blows it before, I will say effectively over
But I can't play the sound effect yet because Brody
has five points and Nate has seven.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Okay, here's a two point difference with two questions. Steve
has demanded that this room needs more paper towels, and
so someone has hooked him up. Do you know why?
Speaker 5 (28:07):
Because he's the one who's always spilling every gosh darn
thing he puts in front of him.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Who put that up there?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Phil?
Speaker 5 (28:13):
I think it was him. It was either him Randall.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
You have a roll of paper towels that How tall
are these ceilings? Ten foot ceilings? They're pretty high.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
Not on camera for anybody.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Paper towels are nine feet in the air. Question nine.
The topic is fishing. These two states are responsible for
ninety four percent of the country's American lobster harvest. Brody
very quick to answer, Oh, he's revisiting his answer though.
(28:44):
Question this is question nine. We would need Nate to
get these wrong and you to get these right to
go to overtime. But if Nate can get this one correct,
he'll have secured the victory. These two states are responsible
for ninety four percent of the country's American lobster harvest. Nate,
(29:06):
you love your answer.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
I'm good on one, Iffy on the second.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Okay, Corey, do you have this one right? It doesn't matter.
Still keep up with Brody over here. Oh yeah, he
doesn't love it the time.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
I love to ask a couple of questions.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
These two states.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
You got your answers written down?
Speaker 1 (29:25):
I do for four percent of the country recreational commercial.
I think the answer would be the same either way.
This is counting commercial, certainly.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
I don't know that. If it was great, like I know, dude, recreational.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
May get after it.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
These two states are responsible for ninety four percent of
the country's American lobster harvest, not Montana. Is everybody ready,
go ahead and reveal your answers? We have Nate saying,
May in Massachusetts, Logan, Maine, Louisiana, Sarah Maine, Massachusetts, Cory, Alaska,
(30:08):
and Maine, Alyssa, Maine and Maryland. Brody says Minnesota, Maine, Maine. Well,
that's Maine is and then Hampshire Maine, and New Hampshire's Maine.
The two states are Maine and Massachusetts. Nate has won
(30:30):
himself the game. There's non host and left there's hardly
any coastline. Yeah, get him, Sarah. It's like it's like
twenty mile map. Main eighty two percent of the country's
(30:51):
lobster harvest, with Massachusetts responsible for twelve percent. That's followed
by New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Connecticut, and New York.
It's estimated that Maine's lobster economy is worth over half
a billion dollars. So New Hampshire was in third place, Brody,
but a distance distant.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
If it was recreational, man, I bet you Florida would.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Be number onebster. That's not an American lobster.
Speaker 6 (31:16):
That's different, Sy, I didn't even catch that.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
You said American.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
And that's the big red one that you pick out
of your tank when you go to a nice seafood place.
All right, here's the correct answer review so far. One
was nine foot Rod two Tutsi Pop three Asia, four
Reverse Seer, five, girdle cut six, Colossal Biosciences seven wire cutter, eight,
(31:42):
there will be blood. Nine was Maine in Massachusetts. Phillip's
look at the scoreboard one more time before question ten.
Speaker 5 (31:51):
Here it is Nate has secured the victory, but behind
him are Sarah and Brody with five and Corey with
four and Alissa with one.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Question ten, the topic is conservation in when is Earth Day?
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Every day?
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Looking for the exact date? When is Earth Day? Brodie?
Do you have this right? Oh? Wow, Nate? Do you
have this right?
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Total?
Speaker 1 (32:20):
Is anybody as confident as Brody?
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Nope?
Speaker 1 (32:23):
No, I'm gonna have five guesses. One guy who knows it?
Why do you know the Earth?
Speaker 2 (32:30):
I think everybody? Come on well, disappointed in this room?
Speaker 1 (32:37):
Yes, Sarah, do you know what Earth Day is? No?
I don't.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Okay, same day every year? Everyone knows when Christmas is.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
I asked a similar question that was what month is
ourbor Day?
Speaker 6 (32:50):
That's what I'm thinking?
Speaker 1 (32:52):
When is Earth Day? It's everybody ready? See Nate is
in his phone. You're trying to figure out where you're
gonna donate.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Yeah, I've never prepared for this.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Go ahead and reveal your answers. Have Nate date saying
June sixth, Logan April nineteen Sarah May fifteen, Corey April twenty,
Alyssa April twenty, Brody April twenty second. Brody got it.
The correct answer is April twenty second, and a handful
(33:25):
of you within what three days of the right answer.
Birthday was created by Senator gay Lord Nelson in nineteen seventy.
The first Earth Day saw an overwhelming turnout, with an
estimated twenty million Americans participating. The movement was so powerful
that the Environmental Protection Agency was created later that year
thanks to the public support of the first earth Day.
(33:48):
April twenty two. All right, that makes Nate our winner
with eight correct answers. Nate, where is your five hundred
dollars donation going?
Speaker 3 (33:56):
I'm gonna this might be a misfire.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Their website looks a little out of date, but we're
gonna go with Hunters of Maryland.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
Maryland's always pushing.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
Kind of some bs, like anti hunting, anti gun type stuff, and.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
These guys look like they're doing the Lord's work.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
You mean, Maryland's always pushing.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Like Maryland as a whole.
Speaker 4 (34:14):
It's just it's a it's a mess, dude, like the
state of Maryland.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Yeah, Nate grew up in Ohio, so I didn't grow
up in Ohio, Maryland. Spend most of my time in
Maryland hunting politics.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
So yeah, dude, hopefully they're a good organizations.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Okay, five hundred dollars going to what's it called Hunters
of Maine.
Speaker 6 (34:34):
No, Hunters of Maryland, Hunters of Maryland.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
I'm sorry. This might be the biggest donation they get.
Speaker 6 (34:39):
This based on their website, most likely.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
Nate Mason's name. Well done, Nate good victory eight points.
Maryland is next week for more meat Eater Trivia, the
only game show where conservation always Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:58):

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
