Hello, and welcome to Quiz Quiz Bang Bang, the pub
quiz practice show that hits you how right in the quizzer.
I'm David Flora.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
And I'm Annie Flora, and we're here to teach you
more about trivia than there are issues being a pale person. Also,
when I work out, I turn bright red and people
worry that I'm dying, and that's why I don't work out.
So it works out and on.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
This therapy session will be continuing the Patron Tournament twenty
twenty five to twenty twenty eight. We have two great
teams joining us for game what is this Andy five?
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Game five?
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Game five? We'll meet our teams. Let's go ahead and
jump into it. First, we have Ed and Carissa. What's
up you guys. Welcome. Let's hear from Carissa. First. Welcome in, Chrissa,
how are you?
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Thank you? I am doing great. My name is Carissa.
I am from Taylorville, Illinois, tiny little central Illinois town village.
Really that's to me?
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, great, Welcome Carissa.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
I'm so exciting. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Good to have you and joining Chrissa will be Ed.
You've heard Ed on here before. Ed, how are you doing? Welcome? Back.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Ah, thanks for letting me come back. I wow, Hi,
there was not a solid chance that that was not
a guarantee. It is coming back. So anyway, I am
here to bring up the Canadian quot of the entire
Patron tournament. Yeah. I'm really looking forward to this. It's
nice to be on a team with people that know things.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
I wouldn't go that far, no pressure.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Love that great. You guys will be playing as a team.
What's your team name? Going to be?
Speaker 4 (02:08):
The team name that we thought of way long time,
four minutes ago. We're gonna go with passive digression.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Passive digression.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Both ADHD and you know that Canadian passive aggressive coming
for you.
Speaker 3 (02:23):

Speaker 1 (02:27):
That's true. That's great. Well, welcome you guys, good luck.
You will be going up against David and Paul David,
let's hear from you. Welcome to Quiz Quiz Bang Bang.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
Thanks for having me, guys. I am a new Patreon
member and I am happy to be here and love
the show. I am an attorney here in Pittsburgh but
host trivia once a week, so your show has been
a great place to get questions from. But also it's
a really fun show to listen to. So thanks for
having me.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Thank you hosting Trivia in Pittsburgh. Man, Annie, I almost
went to school in Pittsburgh. Did you Point Park University?
Speaker 6 (03:02):
Is that there?
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Yeah? Yeah, it's right downtown.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Yeah, yep, almost went there.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Narrowly avoided it.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
They didn't let freshman and sophomores be ian plays because
it's going to go to act and I wanted to
act right away if I could, you know, make the
audition work, and they were like, nope, you got to
put in your time. And I'm like, okay, well I'll
go somewhere else where I can put in time and act.
So unfortunately I didn't get to spend time in the
(03:28):
wonderful city of Pittsburgh. But that's my Pittsburgh experience. We'll
welcome David and joining him will be Paul. Paul, welcome back.
Speaker 7 (03:38):
How are you Helloha? I'm great. Yeah, thanks for having
me back.
Speaker 6 (03:43):
Love of the Pod says the last time I saw you,
I changed careers again and now I'm a residential life
advisor at my alma mater.
Speaker 7 (03:54):
Comanda had schools here in kal.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
And, So yeah, I have a dorm of thirty four
junior and senior men in high school.
Speaker 7 (04:06):
I love it. It's awesome.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Oh, that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
I admire anyone who can be helpful to young people
because I find them so tedious. Wow, shot, Like I
want to be a good person.
Speaker 7 (04:30):
Everyone. But it's a it's a very fulfilling to go
back to my alma mater.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, that's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
That's great.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
I want to thank David in advance because I'm feeling
really old now and I feel very out of practice
with my tribune. So he'll be carrying most of the
lead today.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Paul likes understelling and overperforming. I think. Yeah, that's well,
Hello Paul, and welcome back. What will your all's team
name be today?
Speaker 5 (05:05):
Yeah, so, David, we opt the team name that we
used when we played bar trivia here in Pittsburgh for
a long time. Paul and I didn't really have any
plans here, so we're just gonna be the team name
we usually use when we play. We'll be the Lame Ducks.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
The lame all right.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Not a political statement, just the team I think. I
think we probably started that trivia sometime in twenty sixteen,
and it had been our team name for about the
past almost ten years.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
Now, wait, you guys have been a team for ten years.
I've smelled some sad sand bag happening here. Okay, all right,
I get the score.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Well, welcome again. Good luck to the lame ducks and
the passive digression. Annie, let's tell everybody how the truncated
version of round one is going to work.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
It'll be just like a regular episode of quiz Quiz,
except shorter. We're going to do round one followed by
the Bang Bang, followed by round two, followed by the
Big Bang. The regular questions are worth ten points each
and the bang Bang questions are worth two points each.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Already, I think we're ready to get this thing going.
You want to start yourself?
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Sure do question one? The category is a history. Who's
two thousand and five funeral? Did five kings, four queens,
plus seventy presidents and prime ministers attend?
Speaker 3 (06:30):
I think we've got an answer, all right.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
Guard.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Passive digression has an answer. Lame ducks, what are you thinking?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
Yeah, we're just kicking around. That's a great question. We're
kicking around some names. Definitely is going to be somebody
of you know, tremendous stature. Yeah, my first thought that
I told Paul was a pope. It's either I think
it's either going to be a pope or a president
or another sort of world leader like that. I just
I feel like that's around the time that Benedict took
over for John Paul. I think it's around two thousand
(07:05):
and five ish, and I think Mandela died later than
two thousand and five. I don't know that he's been
dead for twenty years, and I don't think it matches
up with the US President Reagan would have been I
think earlier than that.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
I was just thinking. I moved back to Hawaii in
two thousand and six. Oh no, two, Oh, you're right.
I think you're right. Never mind, because I clearly remember
going to like we had a practice at a Catholic school,
and I remember the white smoke for a black pope
quotation up that the kids had put they wanted. I
forget who it was, but yeah, okay, yes, yeah, I moved. Yeah,
(07:43):
I moved back to two. I'd be right.
Speaker 7 (07:45):
I think you're good. I think Pope John Paul.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Okay, we'll answer Pope John Paul the second.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
All right, going with Pope John Paul the Second and
passive digression. What are you thinking?
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yeah, we were not very confident, but we also did
it end up on John Paul the second.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
And the correct answer is Pope John Paul the second. Alright,
everyone's on the board.
Speaker 7 (08:11):
Count thanks.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Question two the category is sports. What name is given
to a ball on a wire that is thrown in
an Olympic event?
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Okay, I think we're reluctant, all right, so.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
The lame ducks. What are you guys thinking.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
I'm thinking it's it's the hammer, throw the ball and
then the wire is connected, and then they do this
to any thing above and very sports orients as you
can tell. But I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
It well, it's not it's not the shot put, right,
because that's like a heavy ball that you sort of throw.
And the discus is like a frisbee. Yes, that doesn't
have a wire, and it wouldn't be the javelin, So
I guess it leaves the hammer, So why don't we Yeah,
let's let's go with that. That's good.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Yeah, all right, going with hammer or hammer throw?
Speaker 7 (09:03):
Yes, yep?
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Great.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Over two passive digression.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
If I recall correctly, I think Canada won like their
first ever medal in the hammer throw, So it was
huge news up here for a guy because it's not
the Olympics. We've already forgotten the guy's name, but I'm
pretty sure it's the hammer throw. So that's what we
went with.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
And the correct answer is hammer or hammer throw. Pier
question three. The category is musical theater. Richard Rogers wrote
two new songs by himself. I have Confidence and something
(09:47):
Good for the film version of What Musical? That was
Oscar Hammerstein's last before he died. We're locked in passive digres.
What are you thinking?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Dang it? I was hoping we're going to get away
with not having to actually talk on this episode.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Were so close, we got there too. I the songs
were I have Confidence in something Good.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
I'm trying to remember.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Oh gosh, part of me wants to go Cinderella, like
impossible came to my mind some but I was like,
oh confidence, No, But I was trying.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
To remember if Westside I know west Side story, I think.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Had that's Bernstein?
Speaker 4 (10:35):
Was Bernstein? Okay?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Yeah, west I saw the Bernstein.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Okay, I've seen this before.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Rogerson Hammerstein, Cinderella's Firs, Sir Rogerson Hammerstein, Okay, do I
know if Rogers wrote those two songs, Hello, do you
want to go Cinderella?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
I am well, I mean my first suggestion was something
that they definitely didn't write, so I think sure, any
authority I might have had to go No, it's something
else is pretty much flushed. So yeah, if you like Cinderella,
then by all means.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
You know what you got us the first two I
filled fifty fifty Cinderella.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
I'm gonna say, let's not put any weight on coincidences
that happen to happen there. Huh.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
I can say for sure it's not west Side though
we can go there.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Then absolutely not. West Side Story is what I meant
to say.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
All right, so you're going with Cinderella.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
It's gonna be really embarrassing on me if it comes
out being the answer, So I'm sorry.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
Over to Lane Ducks, I actually just hosted a sign
along for this movie. It's one of the first movies
I know every single word too.
Speaker 7 (11:49):
Oh wow, it's the sound of music.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
And the correct answer is the sound of music.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Oh, well done.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
The cursor you were right about West Story and Cinderella
is a Rogers and Hammerstein, so you definitely were in
the correct ballpark.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Track, Yeah, I guess uh Ada Weiss was Hammerstein's last
song before he died, So.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Ah, that's a good number to go out on. Holy right.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yeah, a lot of people think it's like an actual
Austrian like folk song.
Speaker 8 (12:19):
It was so good.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
They're like, oh, oh, they didn't write that one made
in the USA.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Question for the category is film. In the twenty seventeen
Wonder Woman film, David Thulis plays what Greek god antagonist?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I think we're good to lock an answer in all right.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Passive digression has an answer in over to the Lame Ducks.
Speaker 5 (12:52):
Oh, we're just naming a bunch of Greek gods. Neither
of us have seen the movie, so I don't know. Paul,
maybe you have seen the movie. I haven't. Oh we're
between we said Zeus Poseidon. I said Aries because I
think he's the war god, and Mars because Mars would
be Greek, right, because the planets are Greek. Okay, right,
(13:14):
because Poseidon is Neptune, right, so it would be it
wouldn't be Mars would be the other one.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
Yes, I would say Zeus.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Are aries, and yeah, Zeus just seems Zeus just seems
so common, but I don't know whether they get a
little more specific. I don't, Paul, it's a it's a
coin flip, you can pick. I don't really know. Okay,
I would say zeus are aries. I don't think it's Apollo.
(13:42):
I don't know Poseidon. No, I don't think it's a
place that seems more like Aquaman type villain.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
So I don't is the big guy right, So it's like,
why would he be with wonder Woman.
Speaker 8 (13:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (13:54):
Wonder Woman also a big girl. But uh, okay, I
think you're I'll go with you on aries.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
Yeah, okay, Paul flipped pall flip the coin and it
landed on aries.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
All right, going with aries and passive digression. What are
you thinking?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
We also thought Wonder Woman was happening during you know,
I think it's World War one times, so we also
went with aries.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Oh yeah, and the correct answer is aries. All right,
Great job, everybody.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
Good job, Paul. Good coin flip.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
I was so hopeful there when you started saying that
the planets were all Greek gods. I'm like, oh my god,
keep your face still, keep your face still, Do not
make a face. Do not make a face. So I
just sat there.
Speaker 8 (14:47):
No I was.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Oh, I'm telling you, you filled me with so much
hope right there for a minute.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
Oh I meant all the planets are Roman. Yeah, I misspoken,
and you landed it.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
You landed it anyway, you rat best.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
I took it away.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
There's our friendly Canadian. All right, David, that's the end
of round one. How did our teams do?
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Passive digression got three correct for a score of thirty.
Lame Ducks swept around for a score of forty. And
that'll bring us to our bang bang round. So we're
going to ask one team to step away so we
can ask the other team a bang bang question. Lame
(15:31):
Ducks are going to their soundproof house of Representatives, all right,
So passive digression. You will have forty five seconds for
this and the category is geography. There are thirteen states
(15:55):
that border Canada. What are they? Your time starts now.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Oh, we got Washington, Montana, and North Dakota, Wisconsin, Michigan, a.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Little bit, I a little bit, uh, Maine, Pennsylvania, Ohio.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
The Canadians getting all the answers, go for it pretty sure?
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Illinois, I mean, if you're Illinois, does Wisconsin touches it?
Touches the Great Lake. I don't know how picky they
want to beef. So yeah, Michigan, and then Ohio to
the east, and Pennsylvan, New York touches, then Maine, then.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
New Hampshire, Vermont.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
I don't mean to say that the whole song.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Arkansas, California, Colorado.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
They're going to be the animaniacs.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
One oh no, and that's time.
Speaker 4 (16:47):
Oh, that's the capitals.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
That's right, Lane Ducks are back from their sound proof
congressional session. The category for this Bang Bang Round is
go to be geography. You're going to have forty five
seconds to give as many answers as you can to
the following. There are thirteen states that border Canada. What
(17:12):
are they? Your time starts.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
Now, Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Vermont,
New Hampshire, Maine, Pennsylvania does but we'll just say Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Alaska, Connecticut. No, Alaska,
that's a good one, Wyoming, No, Montana, North Dakota, South Cota, Minnesota, A.
Speaker 7 (17:39):
Mom, you got a mom, But I think.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, New York, New York Pennsylvania,
not Delaware, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, North Kota, South.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
And that's time. Good job.
Speaker 7 (18:04):
Wow, that was a great, good job.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
And the correct answer is Alaska, Michigan, Maine, Minnesota, Montana,
New York, Washington, North Dakota, Ohio, Vermont, New Hampshire, Idaho,
and Pennsylvania. You had a possible of thirteen states that
(18:28):
you could get correct, and both teams got thirteen states correct.
So that brings Passive Digression to fifty six points and
Lame Ducks to sixty six points.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
A growing up in a border town helps sweet.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Alrighty. Moving on to round two. Question five, The category
is music. What nineteen eighty three song by the Police
that Sting wrote while thinking about Big Brother and Surveillance
was recognized as being the most played song in radio history.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
I think we're good already.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Lane Ducks have an answer, passive digression. You can talk
out loud.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
All right in Chad, I immediately revealed the depth of
my knowledge of police songs and suggested something that I
didn't realize that they hadn't written Baby Shark. But it
turns out that, yeah, thankfully, Carissa, the rock of the
team has has suggested every breath you take be watching
(19:40):
You as a much better suggestion. I am one hundred
percent behind that suggestion. So so let's let's talk in
with that one.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Going with every breath you take instead of baby Shark,
do do do do.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Well, big brother, brother shark do say.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
What you want. It made up a lot of ground.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
You're gonna talk yourself out of this, all right, lane, ducks,
What did you think?
Speaker 4 (20:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (20:08):
We uh we We were just struggling a little bit
as to what was the exact title of the song.
I know this is kind of tricky because I'll be
watching You was in the chorus, but I'm we locked
in with every Breath you Take, which I'm pretty sure
is the name of the song, so we said every
breath you take as well.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
The correct answer is every breath you take. Nicely done,
just for funds.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Since you guys are all trivia lovers, you know what
song it toppled as the most played radio song by
the Righteous.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Brothers Unchained Melody?
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Oh was it an unchained melody?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
It wasn't unchained melody.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
No, you lost that feeling.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
That's correct?
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Yeah, yeps, clients, Hey, I was gonna say, oh menory
they thought famously by the righteous brothers. Hey, Herman's hermits
were pretty righteous. All right, there we go. Question six,
The category is technology. One gigabyte is equal to how
(21:13):
many kilobytes?
Speaker 5 (21:17):
All right, we're gonna be all good here.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Lame ducks have an answer, passive digression. Feel free to
talk out loud.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
All right. In my understanding, you start with bytes, and
then thousands of bytes is kilobytes, and then so bytes kilobytes,
megabytes gigabytes, and then Tara and Peter and blah blah
blah blah blah. So if you have a thousand from
kilo to mega, one thousand from mega to giga, you
(21:45):
get a thousand times a thousand, which I believe is
a million.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Yep, But I was doing math. I was like, I
got to six zeros, So I think I'm with you.
Uh huh, therek so a thousand here, a thousand here?
All right, counter zeros, there's three and three.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
I can only offer warnings, iic each fifth grade, only
offer warnings for following my lead in any capacity. But
in this one, I think we do have it. So
let's let's roll with a million.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Yeah, going with a million, All right, Lane ducks, what
did you think.
Speaker 5 (22:10):
We are sinking or swimming with our Canadian counterpart? Because
we agree we said one million.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
I mean, you want to get right, Picky, it's ten
twenty four times ten twenty four and blah blah blah.
But I wasn't doing that. Math in this show is
that long?
Speaker 3 (22:22):
So oh, I'm sure you know hexedecimals and all that.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Looking for the logarithmic base of this an oh.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
God taking that to high school.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Oh well, your math was pretty good there. One thousand
kilobytes is a megabyte, and one thousand megabytes is a gigabyte,
so one thousand times one thousand is one million. Nicely
done and stop.
Speaker 4 (22:49):
If you guys could stop following our correct answers, we
would really appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Get some separation here.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
I'm telling you, like, I'm like, let's revisit that Zeus thing.
I'm telling you were really actually onto something.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Question seven. The category is pop culture. Gag me with
a spoon was a phrase coined by what Southern California dialect.
It's a phrase in that dialect.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
I think we've got it.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
All right. Passive digression has an answer, Lane Ducks, you
can talk.
Speaker 6 (23:31):
I mean we both We both said the same thing
right at the same time, and like, Okay, I guess
this is right.
Speaker 5 (23:39):
Or at least not or maybe it isn't.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
But we said valley girl.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Going with valley girl and passive digression, what'd you guys think?
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Like, oh my god. We also came up with valley girl.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Oh, oh my god, you guys are so good. It
is valley girl. Or if you're nasty, val speak, Oh
val speak.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
I don't remember hearing of that in the eighties.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
But see you're not nasty yet.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Well I'm in.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Sorry, miss Jackson, thank you for that.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
The nineteen eighty two hit single Valley Girl by Frank Zappa,
on which his fourteen year old daughter Moon delivered a
monologue in valley speak behind the music, brought wider attention
to val speak and the term valley girl. The song
popularized phrases such as grody to the max and gag
me with a spoon, as well as the use of
(24:44):
the term like, which did not like originate in valley speak,
as like a discourse marker.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
That's I think Frank Zappa. I'm pretty sure Frank Zappa
is the only person in all of creation. That kind
of make fun of the names of Elon Musk's kids, Weasel, motorhead,
moon unit, like, I wow, like he was Maybe he
was just early. He was an early adopter of thinking
up great past. He was thinking up great passwords. That's
(25:16):
what it was.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
He was ahead of his time in many ways. Yeah. Yeah.
Question eight, the category is science in the geologic time scale?
What is the largest geo chronologic time unit? Spend all
of our budget on the language to this question.
Speaker 7 (25:41):
David has locked in.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
I was typing. I don't know what Paul Hall had
seen enough. I think he just wanted me to stop talking.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Lane Lane Ducks has a has an answer.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
I Chris absolutely love how he threw his own partner.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Oh gosh, wha, oh gosh. I was trying to hear
out if an epoch is longer shorter than an era.
ED brought up an age. Yeah, well that's right, But
then I was like, ice age, Yeah, I think was
shorter than like Cretaceous. That's a period. Never mind eras
(26:21):
a mesosoic era. I feel like eras are pretty long.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Yeah, I was honestly kidding about that. I can't believe
I'm going to just have wrecked this question inadvertently and
probably still might get it wrong, which I mean, I'm
all here for that level of irony.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Uh, I mean we can just fall on the sword
and go with the era since that was our.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
Sure, I mean by all means. So let's let's why
why do this halfway?
Speaker 3 (26:53):
All right? We're going not half ass but whole ass
into an era.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
I like you, okay that.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Going with a whole ass era? All right, Lane Ducks,
what did you guys think?
Speaker 4 (27:09):
This is hilarious?
Speaker 5 (27:10):
Ed might have given me the answer on a silver
platter there, but we didn't take it because I feel
like I've asked a question about this and there's like
different units, and I thought the longest one was an eon,
so we locked in with an eon, which I think
is longer than an era, but maybe not eon.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Going with eon, all right, I can tell you the
smallest one is an age, the second smallest is an epoch. Yeah,
the next is a period, the second largest is an era,
and the largest is an eon. So Lane Ducks pulled
(27:49):
it out.
Speaker 6 (27:50):
Wow, Wow, well done.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
I think I've asked that before.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Oh god, Ian didn't even cross the radar.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
I'm sorry for stepping all over that.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
I always thoughts were giant, but it's that.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Was a good pull on epoch. I didn't even forgot.
I forgot that word. When you said epoch, I was like, oh,
I know, big words. That was a good one.
Speaker 8 (28:14):
Five letters, but fancy letters, silent h yeah, geochronologic.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
I need to shout out.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
I'm sorry, it's amazing. You need to talk more.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
I don't even say more. All right, any after our
regular rounds, what are our scores?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Passive digression has a solid score of eighty six, but
the lame ducks just won't miss any answers and have
one hundred and six.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Oooh perfect going yeah, big bang Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
I think this is our first time getting a two
perfect bang bangs. I think this is a quiz kiss first.
So congratulations you guys are making epoch.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
I always called it epoch. I've heard people say epic
and I'm like, no, that's a different word. Stop trying
to steal that other word.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
All right, That is it for the regular rounds, which
means it's time for the Big Bang round. The teams
can wager zero to all of their points. For the
category of television, we will ask three clue questions, which
are all hints to one final question. The clue questions
(29:33):
may not fall under the same category. Here we go.
The wagers are in question one. Which brand holds the
second highest share of the American energy drink market?
Speaker 1 (29:54):
All right? Question two. The first animated married couple ever
shown on a American television in the same bed together
was in which show?
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Question three, the classic nursery rhyme character little Miss Muffett
could be said to suffer from what anxiety disorder?
Speaker 1 (30:21):
And your Big Bang? Question again? The categories television which
actor hosted SNL twelve times between nineteen eighty nine and
two thousand and one.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
All Right, the answers are in for the Big Bang round,
so we will go over them. Question one, Which brand
holds the second highest share of the American energy drink market?
Lame ducks? What were you thinking?
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (30:53):
You go ahead? You had this one. You have a
beauty beat on this one. I was on the Gatorade
kick and then we heard it again for energy, So
go ahead.
Speaker 6 (31:00):
Yeah, I have to get one of these every week
and take it to my.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
It's monster and passive digression. What do you think?
Speaker 3 (31:09):
I so surprise? I am twenty weeks pregnant and I
am missing my daily energy drinks. Congratulations, And we also
came up with Monster, which is my preferred drink of choice.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Wow, congrats.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Learning about my own teammates before the final question could.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Have brought that up earlier. I guess I was put
on the spot to introduce myself first.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Bury the lead and the correct answer is Monster Energy.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Question two. The first animated married couple ever shown on
American television in the same bed together was in which
show Let's go with passive digression? What did you guys think?
Speaker 4 (31:56):
I remember reading about this a while back in my
own trivia writing endeavors God Help Us, and I remember
reading that like the first American television couple predated the Flintstones.
It was like Ozzy and Harriet level of era of television.
But the Flintstones was the first animated couple, if I
(32:20):
recall correctly. And I said that, and Chris it was
very nice to go, you go man, so we went with.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
That and Lane Ducks, who did you think?
Speaker 3 (32:30):
So?
Speaker 5 (32:31):
If this big bang round would have been two questions,
we probably would have gotten the final question wrong too,
because I was pretty sure this was Simpson's until we
heard the third question. Then we sort of worked backwards.
But Paul did mention flintstones pretty early, and so looking
back on it, we are going to say flintstones.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
The correct answer is the Flintstones, and Ed is correct.
It was Mary Kay and Johnny the first live couple
to share a bed on TV. It was from the
show Mary Kay and Johnny I Love Go Figure, which
(33:14):
apparently ran for three years. Wow. They were married in
real life and they had to write her pregnancy into
the series and then their actual infant son appeared on
the show. I've never heard of this thing before. We're
learning so much.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
That's what happens when you show a married couple in bed.
You just don't laugh.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
You got to keep it going.
Speaker 4 (33:38):
I'm fascinated by the tap dancing that the US has
had to do over that whole era of the Hayes
coat and just stuff like that just is never not
fascinating to me.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
And then the turlet flushing.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Yeah, bunker, David and I have two separate beds that
are in the same bedroom.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
That's right, two separate toilet it's in there too, which
we don't for regulation.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
It is so funny that watching TV shows when they
do have the two separate bands, because I'm like, that's
just weird looking. Question three, the classic nursery rhyme character
little Miss Muffett could be suffer could be said to
suffer rightfully, So I will add from what anxiety disorder?
(34:27):
Lane Dux, what are you thinking?
Speaker 6 (34:29):
There's this with many people in my life, including myself,
A rachnophobia.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
And passive digression.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
We also came up with iraq nophobia, which again is
a deserved phobia. It's not irrational at all.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
It is not thank you and Paul, you are you're
one of us? Yes, the correct answer is a rach noophobia.
Speaker 1 (34:54):
And finally, which actor hosted Saturday Night Live twelve times
between nineteen eighty nine and two thousand and one, Let's
start with passive digression. Who did you come up with?
And how'd you get there?
Speaker 4 (35:11):
We got this primarily through the fact that the first
time through the questions were we basically came up with
a list of answers for each question, not really knowing.
I mean, I haven't had caffeine in years. You can
tell by how much energy I've had now don't need caffeine,
and so we just made a list of each one,
(35:32):
and Flintstones was on the list for the middle one.
We're like, well, wait a minute, Goodman, and then Carissa
bless Her went way Monster Monster z Inc. And then
that connection came through, and so we're like, okay, there's
our thread for John Goodman, the actor in Monster z Inc.
(35:52):
And yeah, and in Flintstones.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
And a spider movie that I'm assuming is called I
rach and Aphobia.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
There we go, Yeah, we're not watching that because that
ain't right. That's that's that's that's that's against God.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
That isn't like scary. I have too much caffeine. My
heart myne explode.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
All right, going with John Goodman and lame Ducks? Who
did you come up with?
Speaker 5 (36:14):
So, like I said, if you had stopped this through
two questions, I was sure you were on like a US.
The guy's named Ryan Murphy kick because I was like
Monsters the show, and then the O. J. Simpson he
did that show, so I thought, And then it all
changed with Iraq noophobia, and then John Goodman's just sort
of a guy that hosted at semn owt once a
season for like twelve years, and we knew he was
in the Irackmophobia movie, and then after the questions had
(36:37):
been written, we caught the Monsters Inc. Monster's U clue,
but we locked in with John Goodman.
Speaker 7 (36:41):
As well.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Known for his roles in Monsters Inc. The Flintstones, and
iraq Nophobia. It is John Goodman. Nice job, you guys.
You didn't fall for the Alec Baldwin trap, because he
has the lead overall with most times hostings, but he
only had nine hosting gigs in that time frame. John
(37:05):
Goodman did every year but nineteen ninety one, and I'm
not sure why it was ninety one, but every single
year he was hosting SNL up through two thousand and one,
and I think he hosted it once since then, in
like twenty thirteen, So he's like third or fourth on
the list for most times. Alec Baldwin is the most tied,
(37:25):
maybe tied or just a little ahead of Steve Martin,
and then Buck Henry's up there, a couple of my
favor down from there, not since like eighty three, but yeah, yeah, yeah,
which and I guess he was doing multiple hostings in
multiple years or something. But anyways, yeah, you trusted out.
It was John Goodman and Arachnophobia was one of those
(37:48):
movies that I think they were hoping would be better
received than it was. And I don't know that anybody
really liked.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Nobody loves to see that like this.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
This is like a caveman brain level of fear in
the majority of humanity. Let's have a film about it
where you get to watch it for an hour and
a half.
Speaker 5 (38:07):
No, Oh, it was sort of a comedy, right, I
sort of remember it was like it.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Was yeah, it was yeah, yeah, fair enough.
Speaker 5 (38:19):
Yes, that was like the Raising Arizona John Goodman, Right,
he was in Raising Arizona, then he was in Arachnophobia,
sort of pre Roseanne. Maybe see I think.
Speaker 1 (38:29):
Emperor's New Groove as well, maybe right around that time
King Ralph and then Big Lebowski. Not it's too long
after that, but he plays a really goofy exterminator in right.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
But I don't even like talking about it. I am
already unhappy.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
I think I heard they were making a remake of
it or something, or talking about it.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Great another movie I would watch.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
So anyway, he's coming down to wagers passive digression wagered
thirty points to end up with one hundred and sixteen
lame Ducks wagered sixty seven to come out on top
with one hundred and seventy three. Congrats to both teams.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Congratulations, good John, Paul, good John, Paul.
Speaker 4 (39:18):
Well done, very very nice, good job.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
All right, well done, will played you guys? Only two
questions missed all games.
Speaker 4 (39:28):
Yeah, we're sitting right here day.
Speaker 5 (39:31):
By us.
Speaker 4 (39:33):
Everybody that wasn't passive digression got questions? Everything right? Yeah, good, good, thanks.
Speaker 5 (39:42):
Hey Paul, Hey Paul flipped that coin right.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
Instead of calling out our wrong scores to say they
got a perfect score. Strengths based learning.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
Wallowing in shame is passive digression. With whatever total they
had up don't matter.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
That is how we should have every.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
I was really impressed up until that point. No kidding,
come on, ed, We even gave you a teammates. You
can try sucking a little less. No, No, couldn't do that, coulda.
Speaker 3 (40:25):
They gave you Laura's first slaughter.
Speaker 4 (40:29):
Technically we have three people on our team. Come on,
Oh no, that's right.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Well I was impressed. Uh and Chris, thank you guys

team anyway. Thank you very very kindly for letting me on.

do better by you, but hopefully hopefully the next time
we can, we can hit we can hit the win column.

Thank you hosting Trivia in Pittsburgh. Man, Annie, I almost

Narrowly avoided it.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
They didn't let freshman and sophomores be ian plays because
it's going to go to act and I wanted to
act right away if I could, you know, make the
audition work, and they were like, nope, you got to
put in your time. And I'm like, okay, well I'll
go somewhere else where I can put in time and act.
So unfortunately I didn't get to spend time in the
(03:28):
wonderful city of Pittsburgh. But that's my Pittsburgh experience. We'll
welcome David and joining him will be Paul. Paul, welcome back.
Speaker 7 (03:38):
How are you Helloha? I'm great. Yeah, thanks for having
me back.
Speaker 6 (03:43):
Love of the Pod says the last time I saw you,
I changed careers again and now I'm a residential life
advisor at my alma mater.
Speaker 7 (03:54):
Comanda had schools here in kal.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
And, So yeah, I have a dorm of thirty four
junior and senior men in high school.
Speaker 7 (04:06):
I love it. It's awesome.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Oh, that's amazing.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
I admire anyone who can be helpful to young people
because I find them so tedious. Wow, shot, Like I
want to be a good person.
Speaker 7 (04:30):
Everyone. But it's a it's a very fulfilling to go
back to my alma mater.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, that's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
That's great.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
I want to thank David in advance because I'm feeling
really old now and I feel very out of practice
with my tribune. So he'll be carrying most of the
lead today.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
No, no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Paul likes understelling and overperforming. I think. Yeah, that's well,
Hello Paul, and welcome back. What will your all's team
name be today?
Speaker 5 (05:05):
Yeah, so, David, we opt the team name that we
used when we played bar trivia here in Pittsburgh for
a long time. Paul and I didn't really have any
plans here, so we're just gonna be the team name
we usually use when we play. We'll be the Lame Ducks.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
The lame all right.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Not a political statement, just the team I think. I
think we probably started that trivia sometime in twenty sixteen,
and it had been our team name for about the
past almost ten years.
Speaker 4 (05:25):
Now, wait, you guys have been a team for ten years.
I've smelled some sad sand bag happening here. Okay, all right,
I get the score.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Well, welcome again. Good luck to the lame ducks and
the passive digression. Annie, let's tell everybody how the truncated
version of round one is going to work.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
It'll be just like a regular episode of quiz Quiz,
except shorter. We're going to do round one followed by
the Bang Bang, followed by round two, followed by the
Big Bang. The regular questions are worth ten points each
and the bang Bang questions are worth two points each.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Already, I think we're ready to get this thing going.
You want to start yourself?
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Sure do question one? The category is a history. Who's
two thousand and five funeral? Did five kings, four queens,
plus seventy presidents and prime ministers attend?
Speaker 3 (06:30):
I think we've got an answer, all right.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
Guard.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Passive digression has an answer. Lame ducks, what are you thinking?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
Yeah, we're just kicking around. That's a great question. We're
kicking around some names. Definitely is going to be somebody
of you know, tremendous stature. Yeah, my first thought that
I told Paul was a pope. It's either I think
it's either going to be a pope or a president
or another sort of world leader like that. I just
I feel like that's around the time that Benedict took
over for John Paul. I think it's around two thousand
(07:05):
and five ish, and I think Mandela died later than
two thousand and five. I don't know that he's been
dead for twenty years, and I don't think it matches
up with the US President Reagan would have been I
think earlier than that.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
I was just thinking. I moved back to Hawaii in
two thousand and six. Oh no, two, Oh, you're right.
I think you're right. Never mind, because I clearly remember
going to like we had a practice at a Catholic school,
and I remember the white smoke for a black pope
quotation up that the kids had put they wanted. I
forget who it was, but yeah, okay, yes, yeah, I moved. Yeah,
(07:43):
I moved back to two. I'd be right.
Speaker 7 (07:45):
I think you're good. I think Pope John Paul.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Okay, we'll answer Pope John Paul the second.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
All right, going with Pope John Paul the Second and
passive digression. What are you thinking?
Speaker 3 (07:56):
Yeah, we were not very confident, but we also did
it end up on John Paul the second.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
And the correct answer is Pope John Paul the second. Alright,
everyone's on the board.
Speaker 7 (08:11):
Count thanks.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Question two the category is sports. What name is given
to a ball on a wire that is thrown in
an Olympic event?
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Okay, I think we're reluctant, all right, so.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
The lame ducks. What are you guys thinking.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
I'm thinking it's it's the hammer, throw the ball and
then the wire is connected, and then they do this
to any thing above and very sports orients as you
can tell. But I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
It well, it's not it's not the shot put, right,
because that's like a heavy ball that you sort of throw.
And the discus is like a frisbee. Yes, that doesn't
have a wire, and it wouldn't be the javelin, So
I guess it leaves the hammer, So why don't we Yeah,
let's let's go with that. That's good.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Yeah, all right, going with hammer or hammer throw?
Speaker 7 (09:03):
Yes, yep?
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Great.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Over two passive digression.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
If I recall correctly, I think Canada won like their
first ever medal in the hammer throw, So it was
huge news up here for a guy because it's not
the Olympics. We've already forgotten the guy's name, but I'm
pretty sure it's the hammer throw. So that's what we
went with.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
And the correct answer is hammer or hammer throw. Pier
question three. The category is musical theater. Richard Rogers wrote
two new songs by himself. I have Confidence and something
(09:47):
Good for the film version of What Musical? That was
Oscar Hammerstein's last before he died. We're locked in passive digres.
What are you thinking?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Dang it? I was hoping we're going to get away
with not having to actually talk on this episode.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
Were so close, we got there too. I the songs
were I have Confidence in something Good.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
I'm trying to remember.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Oh gosh, part of me wants to go Cinderella, like
impossible came to my mind some but I was like,
oh confidence, No, But I was trying.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
To remember if Westside I know west Side story, I think.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Had that's Bernstein?
Speaker 4 (10:35):
Was Bernstein? Okay?
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Yeah, west I saw the Bernstein.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Okay, I've seen this before.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Rogerson Hammerstein, Cinderella's Firs, Sir Rogerson Hammerstein, Okay, do I
know if Rogers wrote those two songs, Hello, do you
want to go Cinderella?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
I am well, I mean my first suggestion was something
that they definitely didn't write, so I think sure, any
authority I might have had to go No, it's something
else is pretty much flushed. So yeah, if you like Cinderella,
then by all means.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
You know what you got us the first two I
filled fifty fifty Cinderella.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
I'm gonna say, let's not put any weight on coincidences
that happen to happen there. Huh.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
I can say for sure it's not west Side though
we can go there.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Then absolutely not. West Side Story is what I meant
to say.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
All right, so you're going with Cinderella.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
It's gonna be really embarrassing on me if it comes
out being the answer, So I'm sorry.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
Over to Lane Ducks, I actually just hosted a sign
along for this movie. It's one of the first movies
I know every single word too.
Speaker 7 (11:49):
Oh wow, it's the sound of music.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
And the correct answer is the sound of music.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Oh, well done.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
The cursor you were right about West Story and Cinderella
is a Rogers and Hammerstein, so you definitely were in
the correct ballpark.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Track, Yeah, I guess uh Ada Weiss was Hammerstein's last
song before he died, So.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Ah, that's a good number to go out on. Holy right.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Yeah, a lot of people think it's like an actual
Austrian like folk song.
Speaker 8 (12:19):
It was so good.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
They're like, oh, oh, they didn't write that one made
in the USA.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Question for the category is film. In the twenty seventeen
Wonder Woman film, David Thulis plays what Greek god antagonist?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
I think we're good to lock an answer in all right.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Passive digression has an answer in over to the Lame Ducks.
Speaker 5 (12:52):
Oh, we're just naming a bunch of Greek gods. Neither
of us have seen the movie, so I don't know. Paul,
maybe you have seen the movie. I haven't. Oh we're
between we said Zeus Poseidon. I said Aries because I
think he's the war god, and Mars because Mars would
be Greek, right, because the planets are Greek. Okay, right,
(13:14):
because Poseidon is Neptune, right, so it would be it
wouldn't be Mars would be the other one.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
Yes, I would say Zeus.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Are aries, and yeah, Zeus just seems Zeus just seems
so common, but I don't know whether they get a
little more specific. I don't, Paul, it's a it's a
coin flip, you can pick. I don't really know. Okay,
I would say zeus are aries. I don't think it's Apollo.
(13:42):
I don't know Poseidon. No, I don't think it's a
place that seems more like Aquaman type villain.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
So I don't is the big guy right, So it's like,
why would he be with wonder Woman.
Speaker 8 (13:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (13:54):
Wonder Woman also a big girl. But uh, okay, I
think you're I'll go with you on aries.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
Yeah, okay, Paul flipped pall flip the coin and it
landed on aries.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
All right, going with aries and passive digression. What are
you thinking?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
We also thought Wonder Woman was happening during you know,
I think it's World War one times, so we also
went with aries.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Oh yeah, and the correct answer is aries. All right,
Great job, everybody.
Speaker 5 (14:31):
Good job, Paul. Good coin flip.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
I was so hopeful there when you started saying that
the planets were all Greek gods. I'm like, oh my god,
keep your face still, keep your face still, Do not
make a face. Do not make a face. So I
just sat there.
Speaker 8 (14:47):
No I was.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Oh, I'm telling you, you filled me with so much
hope right there for a minute.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
Oh I meant all the planets are Roman. Yeah, I misspoken,
and you landed it.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
You landed it anyway, you rat best.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
I took it away.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
There's our friendly Canadian. All right, David, that's the end
of round one. How did our teams do?
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Passive digression got three correct for a score of thirty.
Lame Ducks swept around for a score of forty. And
that'll bring us to our bang bang round. So we're
going to ask one team to step away so we
can ask the other team a bang bang question. Lame
(15:31):
Ducks are going to their soundproof house of Representatives, all right,
So passive digression. You will have forty five seconds for
this and the category is geography. There are thirteen states
(15:55):
that border Canada. What are they? Your time starts now.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Oh, we got Washington, Montana, and North Dakota, Wisconsin, Michigan, a.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Little bit, I a little bit, uh, Maine, Pennsylvania, Ohio.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
The Canadians getting all the answers, go for it pretty sure?
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Illinois, I mean, if you're Illinois, does Wisconsin touches it?
Touches the Great Lake. I don't know how picky they
want to beef. So yeah, Michigan, and then Ohio to
the east, and Pennsylvan, New York touches, then Maine, then.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
New Hampshire, Vermont.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
I don't mean to say that the whole song.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Arkansas, California, Colorado.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
They're going to be the animaniacs.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
One oh no, and that's time.
Speaker 4 (16:47):
Oh, that's the capitals.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
That's right, Lane Ducks are back from their sound proof
congressional session. The category for this Bang Bang Round is
go to be geography. You're going to have forty five
seconds to give as many answers as you can to
the following. There are thirteen states that border Canada. What
(17:12):
are they? Your time starts.
Speaker 5 (17:14):
Now, Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Vermont,
New Hampshire, Maine, Pennsylvania does but we'll just say Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Alaska, Connecticut. No, Alaska,
that's a good one, Wyoming, No, Montana, North Dakota, South Cota, Minnesota, A.
Speaker 7 (17:39):
Mom, you got a mom, But I think.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, New York, New York Pennsylvania,
not Delaware, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, North Kota, South.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
And that's time. Good job.
Speaker 7 (18:04):
Wow, that was a great, good job.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
And the correct answer is Alaska, Michigan, Maine, Minnesota, Montana,
New York, Washington, North Dakota, Ohio, Vermont, New Hampshire, Idaho,
and Pennsylvania. You had a possible of thirteen states that
(18:28):
you could get correct, and both teams got thirteen states correct.
So that brings Passive Digression to fifty six points and
Lame Ducks to sixty six points.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
A growing up in a border town helps sweet.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Alrighty. Moving on to round two. Question five, The category
is music. What nineteen eighty three song by the Police
that Sting wrote while thinking about Big Brother and Surveillance
was recognized as being the most played song in radio history.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
I think we're good already.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Lane Ducks have an answer, passive digression. You can talk
out loud.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
All right in Chad, I immediately revealed the depth of
my knowledge of police songs and suggested something that I
didn't realize that they hadn't written Baby Shark. But it
turns out that, yeah, thankfully, Carissa, the rock of the
team has has suggested every breath you take be watching
(19:40):
You as a much better suggestion. I am one hundred
percent behind that suggestion. So so let's let's talk in
with that one.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Going with every breath you take instead of baby Shark,
do do do do.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Well, big brother, brother shark do say.
Speaker 4 (20:00):
What you want. It made up a lot of ground.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
You're gonna talk yourself out of this, all right, lane, ducks,
What did you think?
Speaker 4 (20:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (20:08):
We uh we We were just struggling a little bit
as to what was the exact title of the song.
I know this is kind of tricky because I'll be
watching You was in the chorus, but I'm we locked
in with every Breath you Take, which I'm pretty sure
is the name of the song, so we said every
breath you take as well.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
The correct answer is every breath you take. Nicely done,
just for funds.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Since you guys are all trivia lovers, you know what
song it toppled as the most played radio song by
the Righteous.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Brothers Unchained Melody?
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Oh was it an unchained melody?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
It wasn't unchained melody.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
No, you lost that feeling.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
That's correct?
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Yeah, yeps, clients, Hey, I was gonna say, oh menory
they thought famously by the righteous brothers. Hey, Herman's hermits
were pretty righteous. All right, there we go. Question six,
The category is technology. One gigabyte is equal to how
(21:13):
many kilobytes?
Speaker 5 (21:17):
All right, we're gonna be all good here.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Lame ducks have an answer, passive digression. Feel free to
talk out loud.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
All right. In my understanding, you start with bytes, and
then thousands of bytes is kilobytes, and then so bytes kilobytes,
megabytes gigabytes, and then Tara and Peter and blah blah
blah blah blah. So if you have a thousand from
kilo to mega, one thousand from mega to giga, you
(21:45):
get a thousand times a thousand, which I believe is
a million.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Yep, But I was doing math. I was like, I
got to six zeros, So I think I'm with you.
Uh huh, therek so a thousand here, a thousand here?
All right, counter zeros, there's three and three.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
I can only offer warnings, iic each fifth grade, only
offer warnings for following my lead in any capacity. But
in this one, I think we do have it. So
let's let's roll with a million.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Yeah, going with a million, All right, Lane ducks, what
did you think.
Speaker 5 (22:10):
We are sinking or swimming with our Canadian counterpart? Because
we agree we said one million.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
I mean, you want to get right, Picky, it's ten
twenty four times ten twenty four and blah blah blah.
But I wasn't doing that. Math in this show is
that long?
Speaker 3 (22:22):
So oh, I'm sure you know hexedecimals and all that.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Looking for the logarithmic base of this an oh.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
God taking that to high school.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Oh well, your math was pretty good there. One thousand
kilobytes is a megabyte, and one thousand megabytes is a gigabyte,
so one thousand times one thousand is one million. Nicely
done and stop.
Speaker 4 (22:49):
If you guys could stop following our correct answers, we
would really appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Get some separation here.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
I'm telling you, like, I'm like, let's revisit that Zeus thing.
I'm telling you were really actually onto something.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Question seven. The category is pop culture. Gag me with
a spoon was a phrase coined by what Southern California dialect.
It's a phrase in that dialect.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
I think we've got it.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
All right. Passive digression has an answer, Lane Ducks, you
can talk.
Speaker 6 (23:31):
I mean we both We both said the same thing
right at the same time, and like, Okay, I guess
this is right.
Speaker 5 (23:39):
Or at least not or maybe it isn't.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
But we said valley girl.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Going with valley girl and passive digression, what'd you guys think?
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Like, oh my god. We also came up with valley girl.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Oh, oh my god, you guys are so good. It
is valley girl. Or if you're nasty, val speak, Oh
val speak.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
I don't remember hearing of that in the eighties.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
But see you're not nasty yet.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Well I'm in.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Sorry, miss Jackson, thank you for that.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
The nineteen eighty two hit single Valley Girl by Frank Zappa,
on which his fourteen year old daughter Moon delivered a
monologue in valley speak behind the music, brought wider attention
to val speak and the term valley girl. The song
popularized phrases such as grody to the max and gag
me with a spoon, as well as the use of
(24:44):
the term like, which did not like originate in valley speak,
as like a discourse marker.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
That's I think Frank Zappa. I'm pretty sure Frank Zappa
is the only person in all of creation. That kind
of make fun of the names of Elon Musk's kids, Weasel, motorhead,
moon unit, like, I wow, like he was Maybe he
was just early. He was an early adopter of thinking
up great past. He was thinking up great passwords. That's
(25:16):
what it was.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
He was ahead of his time in many ways. Yeah. Yeah.
Question eight, the category is science in the geologic time scale?
What is the largest geo chronologic time unit? Spend all
of our budget on the language to this question.
Speaker 7 (25:41):
David has locked in.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
I was typing. I don't know what Paul Hall had
seen enough. I think he just wanted me to stop talking.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Lane Lane Ducks has a has an answer.
Speaker 4 (25:53):
I Chris absolutely love how he threw his own partner.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Oh gosh, wha, oh gosh. I was trying to hear
out if an epoch is longer shorter than an era.
ED brought up an age. Yeah, well that's right, But
then I was like, ice age, Yeah, I think was
shorter than like Cretaceous. That's a period. Never mind eras
(26:21):
a mesosoic era. I feel like eras are pretty long.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Yeah, I was honestly kidding about that. I can't believe
I'm going to just have wrecked this question inadvertently and
probably still might get it wrong, which I mean, I'm
all here for that level of irony.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
Uh, I mean we can just fall on the sword
and go with the era since that was our.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
Sure, I mean by all means. So let's let's why
why do this halfway?
Speaker 3 (26:53):
All right? We're going not half ass but whole ass
into an era.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
I like you, okay that.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Going with a whole ass era? All right, Lane Ducks,
what did you guys think?
Speaker 4 (27:09):
This is hilarious?
Speaker 5 (27:10):
Ed might have given me the answer on a silver
platter there, but we didn't take it because I feel
like I've asked a question about this and there's like
different units, and I thought the longest one was an eon,
so we locked in with an eon, which I think
is longer than an era, but maybe not eon.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Going with eon, all right, I can tell you the
smallest one is an age, the second smallest is an epoch. Yeah,
the next is a period, the second largest is an era,
and the largest is an eon. So Lane Ducks pulled
(27:49):
it out.
Speaker 6 (27:50):
Wow, Wow, well done.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
I think I've asked that before.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Oh god, Ian didn't even cross the radar.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
I'm sorry for stepping all over that.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
I always thoughts were giant, but it's that.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Was a good pull on epoch. I didn't even forgot.
I forgot that word. When you said epoch, I was like, oh,
I know, big words. That was a good one.
Speaker 8 (28:14):
Five letters, but fancy letters, silent h yeah, geochronologic.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
I need to shout out.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
I'm sorry, it's amazing. You need to talk more.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
I don't even say more. All right, any after our
regular rounds, what are our scores?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Passive digression has a solid score of eighty six, but
the lame ducks just won't miss any answers and have
one hundred and six.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Oooh perfect going yeah, big bang Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
I think this is our first time getting a two
perfect bang bangs. I think this is a quiz kiss first.
So congratulations you guys are making epoch.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
I always called it epoch. I've heard people say epic
and I'm like, no, that's a different word. Stop trying
to steal that other word.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
All right, That is it for the regular rounds, which
means it's time for the Big Bang round. The teams
can wager zero to all of their points. For the
category of television, we will ask three clue questions, which
are all hints to one final question. The clue questions
(29:33):
may not fall under the same category. Here we go.
The wagers are in question one. Which brand holds the
second highest share of the American energy drink market?
Speaker 1 (29:54):
All right? Question two. The first animated married couple ever
shown on a American television in the same bed together
was in which show?
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Question three, the classic nursery rhyme character little Miss Muffett
could be said to suffer from what anxiety disorder?
Speaker 1 (30:21):
And your Big Bang? Question again? The categories television which
actor hosted SNL twelve times between nineteen eighty nine and
two thousand and one.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
All Right, the answers are in for the Big Bang round,
so we will go over them. Question one, Which brand
holds the second highest share of the American energy drink market?
Lame ducks? What were you thinking?
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (30:53):
You go ahead? You had this one. You have a
beauty beat on this one. I was on the Gatorade
kick and then we heard it again for energy, So
go ahead.
Speaker 6 (31:00):
Yeah, I have to get one of these every week
and take it to my.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
It's monster and passive digression. What do you think?
Speaker 3 (31:09):
I so surprise? I am twenty weeks pregnant and I
am missing my daily energy drinks. Congratulations, And we also
came up with Monster, which is my preferred drink of choice.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Wow, congrats.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Learning about my own teammates before the final question could.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Have brought that up earlier. I guess I was put
on the spot to introduce myself first.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Bury the lead and the correct answer is Monster Energy.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Question two. The first animated married couple ever shown on
American television in the same bed together was in which
show Let's go with passive digression? What did you guys think?
Speaker 4 (31:56):
I remember reading about this a while back in my
own trivia writing endeavors God Help Us, and I remember
reading that like the first American television couple predated the Flintstones.
It was like Ozzy and Harriet level of era of television.
But the Flintstones was the first animated couple, if I
(32:20):
recall correctly. And I said that, and Chris it was
very nice to go, you go man, so we went with.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
That and Lane Ducks, who did you think?
Speaker 3 (32:30):
So?
Speaker 5 (32:31):
If this big bang round would have been two questions,
we probably would have gotten the final question wrong too,
because I was pretty sure this was Simpson's until we
heard the third question. Then we sort of worked backwards.
But Paul did mention flintstones pretty early, and so looking
back on it, we are going to say flintstones.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
The correct answer is the Flintstones, and Ed is correct.
It was Mary Kay and Johnny the first live couple
to share a bed on TV. It was from the
show Mary Kay and Johnny I Love Go Figure, which
(33:14):
apparently ran for three years. Wow. They were married in
real life and they had to write her pregnancy into
the series and then their actual infant son appeared on
the show. I've never heard of this thing before. We're
learning so much.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
That's what happens when you show a married couple in bed.
You just don't laugh.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
You got to keep it going.
Speaker 4 (33:38):
I'm fascinated by the tap dancing that the US has
had to do over that whole era of the Hayes
coat and just stuff like that just is never not
fascinating to me.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
And then the turlet flushing.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Yeah, bunker, David and I have two separate beds that
are in the same bedroom.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
That's right, two separate toilet it's in there too, which
we don't for regulation.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
It is so funny that watching TV shows when they
do have the two separate bands, because I'm like, that's
just weird looking. Question three, the classic nursery rhyme character
little Miss Muffett could be suffer could be said to
suffer rightfully, So I will add from what anxiety disorder?
(34:27):
Lane Dux, what are you thinking?
Speaker 6 (34:29):
There's this with many people in my life, including myself,
A rachnophobia.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
And passive digression.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
We also came up with iraq nophobia, which again is
a deserved phobia. It's not irrational at all.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
It is not thank you and Paul, you are you're
one of us? Yes, the correct answer is a rach noophobia.
Speaker 1 (34:54):
And finally, which actor hosted Saturday Night Live twelve times
between nineteen eighty nine and two thousand and one, Let's
start with passive digression. Who did you come up with?
And how'd you get there?
Speaker 4 (35:11):
We got this primarily through the fact that the first
time through the questions were we basically came up with
a list of answers for each question, not really knowing.
I mean, I haven't had caffeine in years. You can
tell by how much energy I've had now don't need caffeine,
and so we just made a list of each one,
(35:32):
and Flintstones was on the list for the middle one.
We're like, well, wait a minute, Goodman, and then Carissa
bless Her went way Monster Monster z Inc. And then
that connection came through, and so we're like, okay, there's
our thread for John Goodman, the actor in Monster z Inc.
(35:52):
And yeah, and in Flintstones.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
And a spider movie that I'm assuming is called I
rach and Aphobia.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
There we go, Yeah, we're not watching that because that
ain't right. That's that's that's that's that's against God.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
That isn't like scary. I have too much caffeine. My
heart myne explode.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
All right, going with John Goodman and lame Ducks? Who
did you come up with?
Speaker 5 (36:14):
So, like I said, if you had stopped this through
two questions, I was sure you were on like a US.
The guy's named Ryan Murphy kick because I was like
Monsters the show, and then the O. J. Simpson he
did that show, so I thought, And then it all
changed with Iraq noophobia, and then John Goodman's just sort
of a guy that hosted at semn owt once a
season for like twelve years, and we knew he was
in the Irackmophobia movie, and then after the questions had
(36:37):
been written, we caught the Monsters Inc. Monster's U clue,
but we locked in with John Goodman.
Speaker 7 (36:41):
As well.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
Known for his roles in Monsters Inc. The Flintstones, and
iraq Nophobia. It is John Goodman. Nice job, you guys.
You didn't fall for the Alec Baldwin trap, because he
has the lead overall with most times hostings, but he
only had nine hosting gigs in that time frame. John
(37:05):
Goodman did every year but nineteen ninety one, and I'm
not sure why it was ninety one, but every single
year he was hosting SNL up through two thousand and one,
and I think he hosted it once since then, in
like twenty thirteen, So he's like third or fourth on
the list for most times. Alec Baldwin is the most tied,
(37:25):
maybe tied or just a little ahead of Steve Martin,
and then Buck Henry's up there, a couple of my
favor down from there, not since like eighty three, but yeah, yeah, yeah,
which and I guess he was doing multiple hostings in
multiple years or something. But anyways, yeah, you trusted out.
It was John Goodman and Arachnophobia was one of those
(37:48):
movies that I think they were hoping would be better
received than it was. And I don't know that anybody
really liked.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Nobody loves to see that like this.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
This is like a caveman brain level of fear in
the majority of humanity. Let's have a film about it
where you get to watch it for an hour and
a half.
Speaker 5 (38:07):
No, Oh, it was sort of a comedy, right, I
sort of remember it was like it.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Was yeah, it was yeah, yeah, fair enough.
Speaker 5 (38:19):
Yes, that was like the Raising Arizona John Goodman, Right,
he was in Raising Arizona, then he was in Arachnophobia,
sort of pre Roseanne. Maybe see I think.
Speaker 1 (38:29):
Emperor's New Groove as well, maybe right around that time
King Ralph and then Big Lebowski. Not it's too long
after that, but he plays a really goofy exterminator in right.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
But I don't even like talking about it. I am
already unhappy.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
I think I heard they were making a remake of
it or something, or talking about it.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Great another movie I would watch.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
So anyway, he's coming down to wagers passive digression wagered
thirty points to end up with one hundred and sixteen
lame Ducks wagered sixty seven to come out on top
with one hundred and seventy three. Congrats to both teams.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Congratulations, good John, Paul, good John, Paul.
Speaker 4 (39:18):
Well done, very very nice, good job.
Speaker 1 (39:23):

questions missed all games.

Speaker 5 (39:31):

Speaker 4 (39:33):
Everybody that wasn't passive digression got questions? Everything right? Yeah, good, good, thanks.
Speaker 5 (39:42):
Hey Paul, Hey Paul flipped that coin right.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
Instead of calling out our wrong scores to say they
got a perfect score. Strengths based learning.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
Wallowing in shame is passive digression. With whatever total they
had up don't matter.
Speaker 2 (40:03):
That is how we should have every.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
