That is amazing.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Do you think it's worse than the British one?

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Tani and Mel say that the celebrity version's pretty great,
So I don't know about the regular one, but apparently
the celebrity one's pretty fun.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Well, if Tani and Mel say.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
It's good, I trust them.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
But what if they're traitors themselves?

Speaker 1 (00:57):
That's true, they could be. I wouldn't put it past them. Hey, David,
we want to give a big shout out to Emily.

Speaker 3 (01:06):

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Keep our lights on, so thank you to all our patrons.
Thank you for all our listeners. And now let's just
dive in. This is how the show works.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Wiz Quiz Bang Bang's format is four rounds of four questions,
each followed by the answers. After round two, we'll ask
a quick fire bang bang question where you'll have a
time limit to give multiple answers. After the fourth round,
the show culminates with the Big Bang, a final round
with three questions, whose answers are all clues to one
final question?

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Round one. Question one, The category is television. The American
series of comedy short films titled Our Gang was later
syndicated for television under on what title? Question two. The
category is science. What is a single piece of coil DNA? Called?

(02:16):
Question three? The category is technology. This question was inspired
by the economists quiz Thanks economists, duck, duco, q want
and Swiss cows are types of what kind of software program?

(02:38):
Question for the category is geography. This question comes from
Laura and Dennis. Thank you Laura and Dennis. Than Dennis,
what New England state is also a member of the
New York tri State area? And now the answer is

(02:59):
round one. Question one. The American series of comedy short
films titled Our Gang was later syndicated for television under
what title The Little Rascals? Question two? What is a
single piece of coil DNA called chromosome? Question three? Duck dot, go,

(03:27):
q want and swiss cows are types of what kind
of software program? Private search engines I guess there's some
leaked emails at Google's stating that they are making their
search functionality worse, so you have to scroll through more
so that you can see more ads. Fun times Wow.

(03:51):
Question for what New England state is also a member
of the New York Tri state area Connecticut. You gotta
know what the Tri state is and you gotta know
your New England states.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Is New York part of New England?

Speaker 1 (04:12):
That would be a negative. It's Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Rhode Island, and Vermont. It is bordered by the state
of New York to the west and that by the
Canadian province of New Brunswick to the northeast. Boston is
New England's largest city.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
Round two. Question five The category is entertainment. In Which
country did the theatrical genre vaudeville get its start in
the middle of the nineteenth century? Question six category US history.

(04:54):
Colonial militias that were ready to fight quickly were known
by what timely nickname? Question seven category language. This one
comes to us from listener major data fig you major,
thank you major. What word refers to both a letter

(05:16):
formed by combining A and e In Old English, The
battery residue left after a volcanic eruption, and a type
of tree known for its strong, flexible wood. Question eight.
Category games and hobbies. In Settler of Catan's standard version,

(05:39):
a player can win if they accumulate how many victory
points and now they answers to round two. Question five?
In which country did the theatrical genre vaudeville get its
start In the middle of the nineteenth century France, So

(06:02):
the origin of the term is obscure, but often explained
as being derived from the French expression voausdeville or voice
of the city. There are other origins to it, including
one that was kind of like that fleur de lis. Oh, yeah,
that we were looking up where it's like, well, this

(06:23):
is just from a river and the body tavern that
was along the river, and yes, like come on, that's
kind of stretching. Question six. Colonial militias ready to fight
quickly were known by what timely nickname? Minute men? Question seven?

(06:47):
What word refers to both a letter formed by combining
A and E and Old English powdery residue after a
volcanic eruption, and a type of tree. Ash.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
I looked up ash trees with this question and because
they're both strong and elastic. That's what you use to
make bows, tool handles, baseball bats. You know, things that
need to be strong and flexible, tough.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
But supple question eight and seller of Catan or Catans
standard version. A player can win if they accumulate how
many victory points ten. I think you can set your
own rules and stuff like that, but just baseline victory

(07:40):
conditions ten points will get you the Victoire victwa Deville.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
That's it for the first half, which means it's time
for the Bang Bang Round. The category for this week's
Bang Bang Round is theater. You'll have thirty seconds to
answer the following question. Name the six characters who die
in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Your time starts.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Now, and that's time. The six characters who die in

(08:45):
Romeo and Juliet are Juliet, Romeo, Count Paris, Tibalt, Mercutio,
and Lady Montague. This one would sometimes be eight depending

(09:07):
on the source, because some folks include the nurse's husband
and Benvolio both die off page, although the nurse's husband
from what I read in the play, the nurse's husband
has just been dead oh and is just mentioned like oh,
bless his hard He was a good soul kind of thing.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
And Benvolio, they said in the first quarto, the some
of the earlier printings, he it was mentioned that he
died off stage, maybe of grief at lying to the
prince or something like that, but that was considered an
unreliable source. And in everything going forward, including the first

(09:52):
folio which I looked up, which is kind of a
definitive closer to Shakespeare source, Benvolio is not mentioned. Is
dying at all?

Speaker 1 (10:01):
Well, it's funny because lady Montague dies when she hears
that Romeo's banished. And that's another off.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
That one's out of those six, that one's the only
one that's not on stage.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
Yeah, the others are very much more memorable.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Oh yeah, everybody gets stabbed or poisoned, like you do,
like you do.

Speaker 1 (10:22):

(11:16):

They don't care. They'll spit on anything. Run it off.
Question fifteen. Fernando Botero was from which country? Colombia.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
If you haven't had a chance to see his artwork,
I recommend looking at his Mona Lisa. It's adorable.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
Huh. I don't know what exaggerated volume means, but I'm
pretty sure I'm a Botero accorded to that description.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah, they do call it like Boteroism style or something
like that, which is just his critics said, he just
draws fat people. He's like no, I do like voluptuous,
kind of larger than life, and that allows me to
then exaggerate features.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Question sixteen. In two thousand and nine, what became the
first Morse Code character to be added since World War Two?
If you think about what was going on at the
time and the technology that was coming out, it'll lead
you hopefully to the at sign.
