Here's how the show works.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Witz Quiz Bang Bang's format. It's four rounds of four questions,
each followed by the answer. After round two will ask

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. Round one. Question one, the category is language.

(04:48):
Category is folklore? Ghosts that are said to appear on

(05:09):
from Major Data.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Think you major?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
The Madison and the omnium are Olympic events in what
summer sport? And now the answers to round one. Question one?
What word is shared between some sports uniforms and a
band's percussion setup kit? You have a football kit and a.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Drum kit and kit Harrington in a box kit Harrington
wearing a football kit playing the drums? Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Question two? What is the term for the processes that
result in the structure and properties of Earth's crust tectonics?
Question three. Ghosts that are set to appear on road
sides at night, usually in the form of a sad
woman that disappears, are often said to be wearing clothes
of what color white?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Have you ever seen a ghost, David.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Sure, haven't, Tanny. This is the lady in white tails
that you'll hear. Sometimes people can actually pick them up,
you know, get them in their car, and then when
they get wherever they're going, they're not in the seat anymore.
Question four. The Madison and the Omnium are Olympic events,
and what summer sport speed cycling? The Madison is a
(06:35):
relay race event in track cycling, named after the first
Madison Square Garden in New York. One racer propels his
partner like a slingshot during a Madison race.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
That's crazy. Grab each other and throw them and that's it.
That's it.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
They should do a discus event like that too.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Round two. Question five. The category is which shakespeare play
has a Duke of Athens marrying the Queen of the Amazons.
Question six. The category is film. Which actor won an
Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in
(07:21):
A Fish called Wanda. Question seven the category is video games.

(08:25):
for Best Supporting Actor for his role in A Fish
Called Wanda Kevin Kleine. Question seven. What video game holds
the record for the highest selling single platform exclusive of
all time? It's we Sports, Brandon said. I figured it
(08:47):
would have been the original Super Mario Brothers, but we
Sports has sold eighty three million copies. And I think
one of the reasons, David, is because it was included
as a packing game with the console in all territories
except Japan and Korea. So you bought a Wii, you
bought a Wee Sports.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Sure did for a long time. That was the same
for the nes too with Mario and Duck Hunt. But yeah,
some of them did sell without it, but this one
was big, I think because you could put it in
a retirement home and people would absolutely lose their minds
having fun with it.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Great for old folks playing video games, the bowling and stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Like that, and it's a great way to introduce you
into how to use a Wii. Question eight, which French
City gained notoriety for a British retreat that Churchill called
a miracle during World War two, Dunkirk. That is a
really great story.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Germans could have probably crushed them, but they stopped to
repair tanks and that gave them enough time to get
out of there.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
They get saved by the fishermen.

a retirement home and people would absolutely lose their minds
having fun with it.
