of course, and Nordy is the official mascot aw for leto,

Speaker 1 (11:06):
It is what animal is it? It's like a wolverine
bear mix. What is that?
Speaker 2 (11:18):

a chair.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Yeah. Italian artist made this chair as a kind of
inspired by ron homage to Vincent van Go's painting of
a simple chair, and he coated it in Swarowski crystals.
So it was on display clearly, you know, in this museum,
and this couple came in there and took turns sitting
(12:20):
on it and taking pictures laughing, ha haha. When the
guy sat on it, it completely just kind of folded
and collapsed, and then they ran away and they still
don't know who did it.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Oh gosh, And.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
I guess they have restored the chair or done their
best job to do it. But this is why we
can't have nice things Round four. Question thirteen the categories architecture.

sixty six glass panes were used to make it. Mm hmm,
and since that's the number of the devil, and Dan
Brown actually says that in the Da Vinci Code, But
(14:27):
it's not true.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
I was gonna say. And if you take the letters
of I Am Pay and rearrange them in spells satan.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Yeah, it's over. It's six hundred and seventy three glass pains.
Oh so close yet so not satan.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
It's like you missed out on a pretty good payday.
I am payday. Question fourteen. What term refers to an increase,
often sudden, in the number cases of a disease above
what is normally expected in that population in that area,
Often a large area epidemic. I will give you half
(15:11):
points if you said outbreak, but outbreak is more limited
in area. I would count pandemic as incorrect because that
would involve several countries, so a much bigger area. Question fifteen.

for which movie Raging Bull? Yeah, Taxi Driver came out
before that, but he didn't get a nomination for director
for it. Robert de Niro got an Oscar nomination for
Taxi Driver. Ody Foster I think did as the choild prostitute,
(16:04):
and Bernard Herman, who did the soundtrack, got a nomination
and he finished the score of the movie just hours
before he died. Oh wow, Yeah, it was his last work.
Bernard Herman was big in the sixties through early eighties
for scoring things including The Twilight Zone and several other
(16:28):
movies center Escaping me right now. But if you listen
to the music on the Twilight Zone, you'll be like, Oh, yeah,
that's kind of like the quintessential orchestral soundtrack of that time,
that time. Yeah, especially like mystery stuff I feel like.
But yeah, he was pretty talented.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah, very talented. And that's it for the regular round,
which means it's time for the Big Bang Round. The
category for this week's Big Bang Round is Literature. We
will give you three clue questions, which are all hints
to one final question. The clue questions may not fall
(17:11):
under the same category. Question one, what word for a
senior member of staff or a grand household comes from
the old French word for officer in charge of the
king's wine bottles.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Question two, give the first and last name of the
figure skater turned broadcaster who teamed up with fellow skater
Johnny Weir for several correspondent gigs.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Question three, which novel marks the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
And your Big Bang question again the category's literature, which
novel had proposed titles including Bugles Sang True, Not in
Our Stars and Tote the Weary Load, And now.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
The answers to the big bang round. Question one, what
word for a senior member of staff of a grand
household comes from the old French word for officer in
charge of the king's wine bottles?
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Butler goes back to Buttelier for the guy who gets
the wine nice. Question two, give the first and last
name of the figure skater turned broadcaster who teamed up
with Johnny Weir for several correspondent gigs, Tara Lipinsky. They're
(18:54):
a fun duo, they are.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Question three, which novels the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes
a study in Scarlet?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
And finally, which novel had proposed titles including Bugles Sing True,
Not in Our Stars and Tote the Weary Load featuring
the characters Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler at the Plantation
Terra It was Gone with the Wind. I think that
(19:28):
was a good choice for titles. Out of that bunch.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Yeah, out of those four, I think Gone with the
Window is definitely the Catchest set of Toads and Spoils
or whatever.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
For the purists out there, I will point out Scarlett
O'Hara has two teas in scarlet. A study in scarlet
only has one tea. Ah, but it sounds the same even.
That's all you need to get you there.

Brown actually says that in the Da Vinci Code, But
(14:27):
it's not true.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
I was gonna say. And if you take the letters
of I Am Pay and rearrange them in spells satan.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Yeah, it's over. It's six hundred and seventy three glass pains.
Oh so close yet so not satan.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
It's like you missed out on a pretty good payday.
I am payday. Question fourteen. What term refers to an increase,
often sudden, in the number cases of a disease above
what is normally expected in that population in that area,
Often a large area epidemic. I will give you half
(15:11):
points if you said outbreak, but outbreak is more limited
in area. I would count pandemic as incorrect because that
would involve several countries, so a much bigger area. Question fifteen.
Who voiced Miss Frizzle on the children's television series The
(15:31):
Magic School Bus? Lily Tomlin?
Speaker 2 (15:37):
That's fun?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Question sixteen. Martin Scorsese's first Best Director Oscar nomination was
for which movie Raging Bull? Yeah, Taxi Driver came out
before that, but he didn't get a nomination for director
for it. Robert de Niro got an Oscar nomination for
Taxi Driver. Ody Foster I think did as the choild prostitute,
(16:04):
and Bernard Herman, who did the soundtrack, got a nomination
and he finished the score of the movie just hours
before he died. Oh wow, Yeah, it was his last work.
Bernard Herman was big in the sixties through early eighties
for scoring things including The Twilight Zone and several other
(16:28):
movies center Escaping me right now. But if you listen
to the music on the Twilight Zone, you'll be like, Oh, yeah,
that's kind of like the quintessential orchestral soundtrack of that time,
that time. Yeah, especially like mystery stuff I feel like.
But yeah, he was pretty talented.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah, very talented. And that's it for the regular round,
which means it's time for the Big Bang Round. The
category for this week's Big Bang Round is Literature. We
will give you three clue questions, which are all hints
to one final question. The clue questions may not fall
(17:11):
under the same category. Question one, what word for a
senior member of staff or a grand household comes from
the old French word for officer in charge of the
king's wine bottles.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Question two, give the first and last name of the
figure skater turned broadcaster who teamed up with fellow skater
Johnny Weir for several correspondent gigs.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Question three, which novel marks the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
And your Big Bang question again the category's literature, which
novel had proposed titles including Bugles Sang True, Not in
Our Stars and Tote the Weary Load, And now.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
The answers to the big bang round. Question one, what
word for a senior member of staff of a grand
household comes from the old French word for officer in
charge of the king's wine bottles?
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Butler goes back to Buttelier for the guy who gets
the wine nice. Question two, give the first and last
name of the figure skater turned broadcaster who teamed up
with Johnny Weir for several correspondent gigs, Tara Lipinsky. They're
(18:54):
a fun duo, they are.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Question three, which novels the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes
a study in Scarlet?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
And finally, which novel had proposed titles including Bugles Sing True,
Not in Our Stars and Tote the Weary Load featuring
the characters Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler at the Plantation
Terra It was Gone with the Wind. I think that
(19:28):
was a good choice for titles. Out of that bunch.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
Yeah, out of those four, I think Gone with the
Window is definitely the Catchest set of Toads and Spoils
or whatever.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
For the purists out there, I will point out Scarlett
O'Hara has two teas in scarlet. A study in scarlet
only has one tea. Ah, but it sounds the same even.
That's all you need to get you there.
