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

(02:13):
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 (02:25):
Round one. Question one, the category is food and drink.
Pilsner beer originates from which country? Question two. The category
is literature. This question comes from listener Bobby. Thank you, Bubby.

Speaker 2 (02:45):

is to round one. Question one, Philsnerbier originates from which country?

(03:43):
The Czech Republic? Question two? How many total rings of
power were there in the Lord of the Rings? Well,
there were nine to men, seven to dwarves, three to elves,
and one ring that deceived them all to Saurron, which

(04:07):
equals twenty. Question three. In Manhattan, the neighborhood known as
NoHo stands for North of Houston, spelled like Houston but
pronounced Houston.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Named after William Houston founding father, not like Sam Houston,
who was a founding father of Texas.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
Not that founding father.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
He wasn't that foundery, but he did a lot.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Question four? What are the two terms for curve lines
and sheet music? Linking notes together in some way? You
have your ties and slurs?

Speaker 2 (04:59):
Ties cause notes to be held for both of those
note lengths, and slurs are just playing notes connectedly in
a legato style. Round two. Question five The category is transportation.

(05:24):
markings and blastpads? Question six category animals? What color are

find threshold designation, aiming point markings and blast pads at
an airport, specifically airstrips or runways. Those are the markings
you see on the runways there. Question six? What color

(06:29):

question one spy asks another, although it could be the
reindeer's eyes are gold in summer and then they change
to what color in winter? Any silver?

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Because they got less of a meddling blue.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Correct.

Wow, that's that's an interesting You'd think it'd stay in
the same family.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Yeah. Question seven, Where were Kevin's family flying to when
they left him in home alone? Paris, France.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
That's why it takes a minute to get back to him.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
Because no one wants to leave Paris, not even for
a child. It's home alone. Question eight, which of Alison
Bechdell's graphic novels was adapted into a Broadway musical Fun Home.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
I hear it's really good. I haven't had the chance
to see it. That is it for the first half.
That means it's time for the Bang Bang Round. The
category for this week's Bang Bang Round is Society and Culture.

(07:54):
You will have thirty seconds to answer the following question.
According to Catholic Philosophe, what are the seven capital virtues
aka the seven lively virtues? Your time starts.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
Now, and that's time. The seven capital virtues are chastity, temperance, charity, diligence, patience, kindness,

(08:56):
and humility. Those are in opposition to the seven deadly sins.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Interesting that the sins are so much more well known
than the virtues.

Speaker 2 (09:11):
They have a better marketing team.

Speaker 1 (09:15):

is the most commonly used to create nuclear energy? Question ten?

Thank you jos say Josh, this.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Is gonna be like a tasty lick where you combine
a food in a band so For example, if I
said this chocolate confection will have you living on a prayer,
the answer would be Bond bon Jovi. But in the
Tasty Joystick, we're combining a video game and a food.

(10:25):
Pinky Blinky en sou while feasting on power pellets and

(11:19):
fun question. Question eleven. This beret wearing Maize runner escapes
the grips of Inky Pinky, Blinky and Sue while feasting
on power pellets and large tubal pasta stuffed with cheese
and baked with mare and Iri sauce. It's your favorite
game in mind, Miss pac Man Nikatti.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
That's great, Josh, and don't be salty about pac Man
versus Miss pac Man, you know it's miss pac Man
because the fourth ghost is Sue, whereas in pac Man
the fourth ghost is Clyde Classic.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
I mean, does the ghost have a little bereer no?
Question twelve. Which city has the largest significant urban area
in Australia? Melbourne. Significant urban areas represent an individual urban

(12:18):
center or cluster of related urban centers with a core
urban population of over ten thousand people.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
There are several cities that fall into that category, and
Sydney is right behind Melbourne. Then, in terms of s UA,
how Australia determines the difference there? But it's on their
government website.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
So take it up with Australia.

Speaker 2 (12:47):
Somehow or another round four. Question thirteen. The category is language.

Hunters is the first all woman collective with a song

what other group achieved that feat in two thousand and one?

United States? Twenty twenty five? March first, Donald Trump signed
Executive Order fourteen two twenty four declaring English as the
official language of the United States. Question fourteen? Which MLB

(14:28):
player just broke the record for the most home runs
in a season by a primary catcher and a switch hitter.
Cal Raleigh. He is a catcher for the Seattle Mariners
and he is up to sixty I believe as of
this recording.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Wow, so he's still going with the record.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Oh yeah, there's still a few games left in the season.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
All right.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
Back in the nineties you had Mark maguire and Samusosa
vyeing for who could hit the most, and of course
that was the steroid era, so it doesn't really there's asterisks,
but I think Maguire ended up with seventy three with
an asterisk. So cal Rally's got a little ways to

(15:12):
go yet with just a few games left, but you know, yeah,
it's still an impressive feed. They call him the big
Dumper because he has a big butt. Question fifteen. In
Chinese mythology, who is the Jade Emperor, the supreme Ruler
of Heaven and the first Emperor of China? In Question sixteen,

(15:35):
Hunter X is the first all woman collective with a
song at number one on the Hot one hundred chart
since what other group achieved that feed in two thousand
and one Destiny's Child with what.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Song Annie Boodylicious?

Speaker 2 (15:52):
That's correct. It's also the first number one for a
K pop artist ever, and the second song from an
animation to reach number one this decade.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
The first was we Don't talk about Bruno from Bruno
Just Kidding end Contex.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
From Sasha Baron Cohen's.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
It'll be interesting to see if K Pop Demon Hunters
breaks anymore records. It just keeps going crazy. That's it
for the regular rounds, which means it's time for the
Big Bang Round. The category for this week's Big Bang
Round is Literature. We'll give you three clue questions, which

(16:40):
are all hints to one final question. The clue questions
may not fall under the same category. Question one, what
word can be used to make two word phrases from
the following words set star sorts?

Speaker 2 (17:06):
Question two in how many Bond films did Pierce Brosnan appear?

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Question three? What is the title of the Greatest Hits

Speaker 2 (18:29):
And finally, Planchett has made a sergeant in the Piedmont
Regiment at the end of which novel. The novel known
for its motto all for one one for all the
three Musketeers.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
I need to reread that what I think I've read it.
That's why I need to reread it, because I'm not sure.
I think it's one of those books I read in
middle school, you know.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
Oh I think I read a kid's version of it.

Speaker 1 (18:59):
Yeah, probably what I wrote too.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
Yeah, but Duma is a good writer. Like I really
liked kind of Money, Cristo.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
Yeah, that's excellent. I went through a classic book phase,
you know, and they're like, who to read them? I'm
a literary critic, David, and it's it's you know.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
That was your criticism.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
No, but that's that's my uh, that's.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Your game face for reading, for.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
Reading these books. But then you then I was like,
all right, I'm gonna read kind of Money Cristo because
it's a classic, right, but it reads so modern and
it's action packed and it's fun and it's it's great.
So if anyone has been wanting to read some of
the classics but is scared, well, you know, because some

(19:51):
of them are like, Yep, you're gonna read better.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
You're gonna know about feudalism, heat about agriculture, tools of
the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
I mean, I just read Ulysses and I would not
tell anyone. Here's a fun read. Knock this out. Have
this be your first book. But yeah, kanamunti Christo is
so fun, so I need to read Three Musketeers.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Yeah, Planchet I believe is D'artagnan's servant. He's just he's
one of those like clever servants, you know how they
used to do. Anyway, thank you for listening. If you
