take this as a bribe, but would strongly recommend Annie
read's book two of the Aco t R series. That's
a court of thorns and roses. If you want to

from the UK.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Huh.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
You know what, Kate and Allie. I have heard that
the second book is better, so I will take your bribe.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Wait did Kate write a court of thorns? You know what?
Any I looked into this? Uh huh. And if you
take the letters in Kate and Allie and you mix
them up like an anagram, you get alienated with a
few letters lifted, so it doesn't really work, but keep going.

(02:53):
The point isn't You're right?

Speaker 1 (04:27):

three Botticelli's Fresco Temptations of Christ is on the wall

seventy six and eighty six percent, you got it. That's

(09:04):
a lot. Question six. What's the only Disney song to

awards this year.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Question seven? Which one is the odd one out between Eagles, Bears,

the Chicago Bears, and the Detroit Lions. Those are all

(09:55):
Baseball team. Question eight. The title of James Joyce's Ulysses
comes from the Latinised name of what hero Odysseus and
he just finished Ulysses.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
H hoof. 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 society and Culture. You
will have thirty seconds to answer the following question. According

(10:30):
to the not dot com, what are the traditional milestone
anniversary gifts for the first eight years of marriage? Your
time starts now.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
And that's time. The first eight years anniversary milestone gifts
traditionally are your one paper, you're two cotton, your three leather,
four fruit or flowers, five wood, six iron, seven copper

(11:39):
or wool, and eight is bronze or pottery.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
I haven't gotten you any traditional wedding gifts. Out of
all of those, which do you want the most?

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Hmmm? Do print a lot for quiz Bang Live shows?
So all right?

Speaker 2 (12:06):
A ream of paper? It is robot round three. Question nine.
The category is food and drink, popular in Belgium and
known in French as carbonade Flamon Flemish stew is a
beef stew made with which type of drink? Question ten?

(12:33):
The category is folklore. This question comes from listener Dean.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Think you Dean?

Speaker 2 (12:39):
What is the traditional occupation of a leprechaun? Question eleven.
The category is history. Whose ambitions were stopped in Russia
in eighteen twelve after the Battle of Borodino. Question twelve

(13:04):
the category is gains and hobbies. What spinning toy used
by kids? To battle each other was introduced in nineteen
ninety nine by Japanese toy company Takara Tomi and sold
internationally by Hasbro beginning in two thousand and two. And

(13:27):
now the answer is to round three. Question nine. Carbonade
flamond or Flemish stew is a beef stew made with
which type of drink? The best type of drink? Beer?
Question ten? What is the traditional occupation of a leprechaun shoemaker?

Speaker 1 (13:53):
That was kind of a later development for leprechauns. They
just kind of started out as little fairies that ran
around a lot, and so the tails evolved into them
having to either repair or make their own shoes. Because
they ran around so much, that became a fact that

(14:14):
they were cobblers, and yates called them solitary fairies. They
didn't hang out a lot with other fay folk.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
So if I was a fairy, I'd be eleprecon Question eleven.
Whose ambitions were stopped in Russia in eighteen twelve after
the Battle of Borodino Napoleon Bonaparte? Question twelve what spinning

(14:44):
toy used by kids to battle each other? Was introduced
by Takara Tomy and sold by Hasbro beginning in two
thousand and two. Babe Blade, did you ever have one
of those? David Sure didn't me neither.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
That's what all Beyonce's fans fight.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
With, isn't it?

Speaker 1 (15:07):
Round four? Question thirteen. The category is science. What name
is given to the climate phenomenon of the cooling phase
of sea surface temperature over the tropical Pacific Ocean? Question fourteen,
Category tasty lick. This one comes from listener may think

(15:28):
you may, thank you May. This is a before and
after involving a band or musician and a food item.
For example, if I said this chocolate confection would have
you living on a prayer, the answer would be bon
bon jovi. Here we go. You better think and respect
this delicious berry, the jam of which is traditionally served

(15:51):
with Swedish meatballs. Question fifteen. Category mythology. Originally a personification
of the Milky Way, the Egyptian sky goddess Hathor became
the goddess of women and fertility and came to be
depicted as what animal. Question sixteen Category animals which underwater animals?

(16:21):
Populations sing different songs based on their geographical location, and
now they answered a Round four question thirteen. What name
is given to the climate phenomenon of the cooling phase
of sea surface temperature over the tropical Pacific Ocean La Nina?

(16:45):
The warming phase is El Nino? Question fourteen. You better
think and respect this delicious berry, the gem of which
is traditionally served with Swedish meatballs. That would be Aretha franklingenberries.

(17:05):
Aretha Franklin saying respect and think and lingenberries. You can
make a jam to serve with Swedish meat balls. Great
work may Question fifteen. Originally a personification of the Milky Way,
the Egyptian sky goddess Hathor became the goddess of women
in fertility and came to be depicted as what animal cow?

(17:29):
This says the cow headed goddess or sometimes just a
full on cow, makes sense with the milky.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Way, Yeah, milk, that's right there.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
Question sixteen. Which underwater animals populations sing different songs based
on their geographical location? Whales?

Speaker 2 (17:50):
That's lovely so.

Speaker 1 (17:52):
In studies on this, scientists found that the farther apart
two groups were, the more different the sounds were. For example,
Indian ocean humpbacks sound very different from Pacific ocean humpbacks,
while different populations within the same general part of the
Pacific will share more elements and song structures, and they

(18:12):
also learn versus from other songs from Wales they encounter
throughout their lives. Huh, pretty neat.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
That's it for the regular rounds, which means it's time
for the Big Bang Round. Category for this week's Big
Bang Round is historical Geography. We will give you three
clue questions, which are all hints to one final question.
The clue questions may not fall under the same category.

(18:45):
Question one. The traditional eating pattern based on the dietary
habits of countries such as Greece, Italy and Spain is
known as.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
What question two. The Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem,
a Catholic military order focused on aiding the sick, the
poor and patient care, is also known by what name.

Speaker 2 (19:19):
Question three? Who wrote the nineteen thirty four detective novel
The Thin Man.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
And Your Big Bang Question again? Category's historical geography. The
George Cross was awarded to which Island country by King
George the sixth in nineteen forty two due to its
role in the Allied war effort.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
Now now the answers to the Big Bang Round. Question one.
The traditional eating pattern based on the dietary habits of
countries such as Greece, Italy and Spain is known as
what Mediterranean diet?

Speaker 1 (20:10):
Question two. The Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem,
a Catholic military order focused on aiding the sick, the
poor and patient care, is also known by what name
The Knights Hospitaller.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Question three? Who wrote the nineteen thirty four detective novel
The Thin Man dashel Hammet?

Speaker 1 (20:36):
And finally, the George Cross was awarded to which island
country by King George the sixth and nineteen forty two
due to its role in the Allied war effort, located
in the Mediterranean and serving as a base for the
Knights Hospitaaler for a while, and having a name connection
with a dashal hammet work. It is Malta, the.

Speaker 2 (21:00):
Malta Tease Falcon, Malta Teese. I love it because they
got this metal and they were so proud of it
that it's now part of their flag.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
They put it on the flag.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
I just think that that is so. I don't know why,
Like I don't want to sound like patronizing, but I'm like,
that's just so cute.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
It was a great spot because it's near Sicily and
north of Tripoli in Africa, so of course the Italians
and the Germans wanted it for staging attacks and things
like that. It would just be a good strategic spot.
And because I think the British had a presence there,

(21:48):
they were able to hold it and keep it from
falling into Axis hands. And the Knight's Hospital had a
that was their main base of operation for a while,
and they actually were administrators of a vassal kingdom there
or something like a like. They treated it kind of

(22:09):
like a fiefdom with I think with Tripoli and just
that that region in general. If I'm not mistaken, they
ended up getting kicked out. I forget why. But there's
a lot of history on Malta, and it relies heavily
on tourism. But there's not a lot of water there.
It gets pretty hot and dry in the summer, so

(22:31):
they have, you know, they have to import a lot
of stuff and get those tourist bucks for the economy.
But it looks looks beautiful and it's also you know,
probably the where the best dogs in the world came from.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
It's true, so we should visit give them our money
as a thank you. Yeah, I've been great, as he
had been a clue question, but we can't actually expect
everyone to know what breed of dog we used to own.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
And I figured that the malted milk balls from the
UK probably been a little spot on as well. The
dashal Hammett work. As Annie said, Maltese Falcon and yeah,
I think if you're talking about hard boiled detective stuff,
Sam Spade dashal Hammett and the thin Man, Nick and

(23:27):
Nora are dashal Hammett as well. Yeah, so he came
up with a lot of good characters.

Speaker 2 (23:33):
Yeah, the film series for The thin Man, I haven't
actually read those books yet. The film series is really great,
so I would like to read that series.
