Yeah, do it or else.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
That's all we got. So here's how the show works.
Whiz 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

(01:21):
final question. Round one. Question one the category is television,
which three word catchphrase was made famous by the character
Steve mcgarrett in the original Hawaii five O television series.

(02:24):
And now? The answer is to round one? Question one,
which three word catchphrase was made famous by the character
Steve mcgarrett in the original Hawaii five Oh Book Them
dan Oh?

Speaker 2 (02:38):
I never watched that show.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
I think they've said it in the new one too,
From what I read Book Them Danoh. Question two, what
actor and comedian part of a famous duo plays the
caddy in the movie Tin Cup? The counterpart of the
duo is Tommy Chong. It was cheech Maren? Question three

(03:03):
from what is the term honky tonk derived? It was
a kind of bar, at least from the earliest account
in print, probably a place of ill repute back in
the day. It was mentioned in print along with something
that was a brothel type honky tonk would be a brothel,

(03:29):
but anyways, a bar. Question four In most accounts to
whom was the Greek god e Feistis married Aphrodite, and
she cheated on him with aries, and he chained them
to a bed and made everyone come and laugh at them.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Huh, that's one way to get your revenge. Round two.
Question five the category is space. What is the densest
planet in our solar system? Question six? The category is entertainment,

(04:12):
which Ira Glass hosted podcast became the first news program
to win the Pulitzer Prize for Audio Reporting in twenty twenty.

eighteen seventy one. What honorary hyphenated titular position is usually
awarded to a notable person? Lord Lieutenant? Question eight? What

(06:12):
iconic disco song includes the lyric We can try to
understand the New York Times effect on man staying alive?
And Nolan makes an interesting observation. He says the song
has become an odd cliche in film scoring to depict
a character's new confident outlook or mindset, but it's actually

(06:33):
about how bad life in New York City was at
the time of its release.
