(00:04):
Welcome aboard Bus 1. We're taking a shortcut from
Miria Tabari, and we've got sometime to kill.
Let's play some trivia, gamers. Introduce yourselves.
I'm Cooper. I'm Mac.
I'm Mitch. God.
I'm sorry, Hold. On a minute, there's a cat.

(00:27):
There's a cat. One second.
Come here, buddy, Come here. Oh.
This is what you get. This is what you get.
This is mini trip. This is short.
And mini trip. Short mini trip.
All right. Welcome, guys.
Thanks for coming on such short notice for this little mini trip

(00:49):
today guys. I had a little bit of a panic
moment Thursday. This Thursday is May 22nd.
No way and. There are so many holidays on
May 22nd that we had to celebrate, so we threw this
together really quickly. We're doing a little mini triv
on all of the holidays happeningthis Thursday, May 22nd when
this episode comes out. Are you guys ready to celebrate?

(01:13):
I know one of them. So here are the rules.
No Googling step one rule #2 there's 2 levels, there's six
questions E there are 6 questions total, three questions
per level, but all questions areworth one point.
We're keeping it even across theboard, even scoring
opportunities today. There is no challenge question
because we ain't got time for that on a mini trip.

(01:33):
And finally, most points wins. Sound good?
Sounds good. OK, we got a buzzer so you got
to buzz in if you know what you're doing, but you're ready.
Let's get started with round one.
The theme is Holidays on May 22nd.
Thanks for waiting. To see what round Tuesday will
be. Hey guys, happy National

(01:55):
Maritime Day. I was just by the ocean.
I'm actually. On the ocean right now, that's.
Crazy. So today, May 22nd, when this
episode comes out, is National Maritime Day in the US
commemorating the launch of the s s Savannah in 1819, the first
steamship to cross the Atlantic.Before then, people had to cross

(02:18):
the ocean the old fashioned way.Who was the first known explorer
to cross the Atlantic Ocean by sea?
Mitch Leif. Ericsson.
That is correct, Mitch. That's what I was going to say.
Or actually, should everything be worth 22 points?

(02:39):
I think so. That's 22.
Points Steve Mitch. National Maritime Day.
Demanding. Demanding lead.
Yes. 2 is worth five points. I was hoping someone was going
to say Chris Columbus because Nah, but he's a sham.
Someone I did want to shout out is Bjarni Perryolfson, who

(03:02):
allegedly got lost on his way toGreenland, saw the coast of
America, but decided not to landand turned around to go back to
Greenland. Nope.
He was afraid. Allegedly, he didn't.
Fully cross the Atlantic and that's on him, he saw.
That the land was already was already inhabited so he said oh
wait there are actually people living here let me turn back

(03:23):
around he. Was like, I'm not going to steal
this land, hero. I'm going to get some.
And that's not what we remember on May 22nd.
We remember the s s Savannah. Nice job, S S Savannah.
Good job. Good job.
Lee Ericsson took a boat called the S S Savannah.
No, Leif Ericsson did it like way before that says Savannah
was the first steamship. And that's what we celebrate on

(03:45):
today, National Maritime Day in the United States.
It. Wasn't maritime back then?
Today of all days. Hey, tell a boat you love it
today. Yeah.
Anyway, question 2. Hey guys, merry Bitcoin Pizza
day to all who celebrate. Bitcoin Pizza Bitcoin.

(04:08):
Pizza Day On May 22nd, 2010, a Florida man ordered pizza in the
first Bitcoin transaction ever. Commemorated.
In today Bitcoin pizza day, don't.
Ask me what toppings he ordered.Is that what you're about to?
Ask. What I am going to ask is how
much were the two pizzas in Bitcoin?

(04:29):
Oh, shoot. Mac. .0004 Bitcoin 003 zeros Mac
you're. You're the closest so far.
Let's. Go back to.
Drone so the value. The first one you answered.
The transactional value of a bitcoins only like gone down,

(04:53):
right? So I think at some point it was
close to that of the US dollar. No, surely not you.
Mean you mean has only gone up, right?
Whatever the the situation is, because right now it's at like
.000 something because each Bitcoin is worth like thousands
of yeah, even I don't know. 10s of back then when it was new
we'll. Get to it when it was new, I'm

(05:15):
going to say it was not worth nearly as much, so I'm going to
say like 10. And Bitcoin, okay.
Bitcoin. Bitcoin.
Is it bitcoins, Bitcoins or? Bitcoin, I think.
Oh, that's. That's weird.
I. Don't know bits coin.
It's not National Pizza Bits coins day, so.
Bits. Coins.

(05:37):
But then again, like. But then again, you you probably
couldn't use Bitcoin to buy something if it were not like
already. I'm gonna some kind of so I'll,
I will clarify that basically some guy posted on a forum, hey,
I want to buy pizza with my Bitcoin and he paid someone
Bitcoin to get him a pizza. Oh so.

(05:57):
Got it. Personal transaction so.
They didn't pay like pizza or anything with.
With Bitcoin but it. It was roughly like the guy went
to Pizza Hut I think, but the messenger, the DoorDash driver,
was paid in Bitcoin. I'm thinking along with Mac,
what Mac is thinking. I I'm just going to say .000,

(06:18):
I'm going to cut you off. Right there, because Cooper is
the closest. The correct answer is 10,000.
Whoa. So it was nothing.
But so God 10,000 Bitcoin rich now.
Was worth about $41.00 at the time, which was about double the
cost of the pizza. So he still made money on that
transaction, however. Bonus point time, bonus round

(06:39):
for National Bitcoin Pizza day. Just a one bonus round out of 22
much. Yeah, yeah, but this is 1 bonus
Bitcoin. Funny for it to be like a single
bonus point. How much is a 10,000 Bitcoin?
Are those two pizzas worth in today's dollars?
Oh Lord 10,000. How much is 10,000 bitcoins in

(07:03):
today's? Dollars, yeah.
I just threw it. I had know nothing about
cryptocurrency. I'm just going to throw out a
big number. I'm going to say $5 billion, OK.
That's a big number. I would say 50 million.
OK, Mac. I'm gonna say, what did Mitch
say 5. Billion.
Billion I'm. Gonna say 5 billion and $1.00.

(07:26):
The correct answer is $1,56,242,000 so I think.
This means. Cooper is closer.
I don't. Know he wasn't even thinking.
1,50,000,000. Yeah, but Mitch is 4 billion
off. I was just teasing.

(07:46):
You to. A billion?
That was like obviously 5 billion is closer to 1 billion
than 50 million. Congratulations, you have 23.
Points. Nice shop, Cooper.
You're meeting me. You're what's an what's shit?
What's that word when you're like an outsider?

(08:09):
You have you have a 23. Points you're not.
Divisible by 22 anathema it's. It's my 23andMe, my 23 points.
Wow, someone my shiny. Teeth and me Okay guys question
3 Hey guys I guess have a good world goth day I guess you know

(08:31):
I will be the. Next.
This holiday was founded to be, quote, a day where the goth
scene gets to celebrate its own being and an opportunity to make
its presence known to the rest of the world.
Let's. Get around.
I hate it. I hate.
It. And honestly, that's good,
Mitch. This is a good lead into the

(08:52):
question because no one exemplifies this more than the
original Goths, whose sack of Rome led to the collapse of one
of the world's largest empires. What subset of Goths are
responsible for this event? Multiple choice.
It's the visit Goths, right? Yes, back it is the Visigoths
that's. 22 points for you, I know.

(09:14):
You shouldn't have gone so my mobile.
Choice sniped it. Was Visigoths, Austro Goths,
Victorian Goths and Pastel Gothsbut two of?
Those are There's pastel Goths. Yeah, that's like if you're like
Goths fashion but you're wearingbright colors.
Yeah, they sacked Rome. It's crazy.
They sacked Rome along with the Vandals, the.

(09:36):
Visigoths were the ones who who sacked Rome and now we have
World Goth Day, which is in no way related.
However, let's let's. Bring them together and now.
We have. Shadow the Hedgehog.
Let's go a real. Shadow the Hedgehog.
Yeah, you're the. Guy.
OK, Cooper, let's be real. Is Shadow the Hedgehog more goth

(09:59):
or more not goth? Does that make Amy Pastel goth?
That's so. Probably.
Honestly, this isn't the Sonic the Hedgehog episode as much as
I. Would just think I.
Wish it was. Can't get to the hedgehog
figure. That's just Sonic.
That's not even. We need like a.
We need like a. Custom sound.

(10:21):
We need a custom sound for when someone like guesses the correct
answer when it's multiple choice, like a sniping sound or
something. Yeah, it's just like.
Mike just sniped that right there.
He did, just sniped. That.
Well, actually. I intercepted the Cooper snipe
and I. Slam dunk.

(10:41):
And then he slam dunk. Took the metaphorical answer.
Bullet for the President. And slam dunked it.
It slam dunk. There's a TTRPG that's called
Mall Goths and Visigoths or Visigoths and Mall Goths or
something. It's like a time travel.
Thing it's pretty funny. I love.
That's. Where I got that from?
There you go. But yeah, happy world Goth day,

(11:01):
I guess. You know, nonchalant about it.
Oh yeah, whoa. I'm like, nonchalant.
About yeah, you know, Goths. They're not like they're
nonchalant, I feel. Oh, that's you trying to be
goth? Thank you super goth.
Anyway, we're at a halfway point, so can we get a score
check? 23 highest Ron Ward score ever.

(11:26):
Insane. 22. And I've got 22 as well.
Wow, it's. It's close.
It's neck and neck here, everybody.
That bonus point might actually come through, might actually
come. And now for the We're going to
take time out of this very shortepisode for an audience
question. Greetings and a very happy
Sherlock Holmes day to all of you listening to this I, famed

(11:49):
detective Sherlock Holmes, the best in the biz, the greatest to
ever do it, as I've been told. It seems like I had another
detective beat me to the mysterylast week though.
Mr. NYLT was the one to solve the mystery of the boiling point
of water, not only knowing it was 100 centigrade, but also

(12:11):
212°F. So we're giving him one audience
point. Congratulations, Mr. NYLT, but
that mystery is elementary compared to the mystery I have
for you today. Sherlock Holmes Day is May 22nd
because it is the birth date of my creator, Sir Arthur Conan.

(12:34):
Doyle, but what? British king knighted Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle in 19 O2 again What British king was the one
tonight? Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 19 O 2
You can solve this mystery and think you can best the great
Sherlock Holmes. Make sure to put your answer in

(12:56):
the comments under the episode on Spotify or on the Instagram
at Boss One Trivia. I look forward to seeing what
you detectives come up with. Tally Ho.
Welcome back on the. Road it's time.
For round two, sacking Rome. Just kidding, it's the holidays

(13:19):
on May 22nd. Guys.
Question 4 Hey guys, Feliz, buy a musical instrument day.
That's exactly. Everyone's.
I like every single time. You just like, lean back and
clap. We're celebrating, and honestly,

(13:40):
I'm kind of hurt that you guys aren't celebrating with me, so
let's run that one back. Please buy a musical instrument
day, everybody. So May 22nd is actually the
perfect day to expand your collection of musical
instruments. New you gotta go buy one, but I
have a couple here. You can kind of see guitars and

(14:00):
and piano. But I do want some more.
So 22 points to first person whocan bring me a musical
instrument. Ohh my.
You've gotta be joking. So.
I've already had one vibe play the same.
Sound effect I. Thought you knew because

(14:22):
everyone was doing strumming before.
This Mitch, do you have a musical instrument?
I would have to stand up to get one, but yeah.
And like, go upstairs. What?
Would it be? I've got a, I've got a pitch
pipe upstairs, so that counts. Yeah, that.
Counts. That's a good one.
Oh, I can do the mouth trumpet. Oh, pin it.

(14:43):
Oh, it's hard. It's hard to do on command.
That's probably not that. Was good.
Well, that was great, I think, when the Saints go.
I think when the Saints is actually.
Public domain too. We're gonna.

(15:05):
Do that full song. Oh.
How I love to. Be when the Saints

(15:26):
I'm impressed. But yeah, it is by a musical
instrument day. So if you've been, if you had
your eye on that special someone, and by someone I mean
musical instrument, go buy it today, May 22nd, Ching.
May 22nd way today's. By Mitch's mouth trumpet.

(15:49):
Anyway, question 5. Hey guys, season's greetings.
And by seasons I mean Canadian Immigrants Day.
Yeah 2. Where from?
So actually. Graded to.
That's a good clarifying question.
Unlike our friend Bryce, this day celebrates those who have
come from Canada. To.

(16:10):
The United States and. Anyways.
I don't know, Matt. So like.
Nathan Fielder. That's maybe a potentially a
good example, Mitch, because forthe question we're going to name
famous Canadian immigrants roundRobin style and the last one
standing low win 20. My first one.
Well, Cooper just buzzed it so. Oh.
Don't steal mine. Snipe got a.

(16:30):

celebrates the transfer of SaintNicholas's relics from Muria
Tabari, May 22nd. Who knew?
Give me a name that's crazy. Justin Bieber.
OK, is he AUS citizen? What?

(16:51):
Oh, I don't even know if Canada.I don't know if Nathan Fielder
is. That's that's the key.
Oh no. I'm just going to.
We're just going to do AI. Surely he's been here so long.
Justin Bieber AUS Citizen. Yeah, at this point you would
think that he is. Yes, he's a dual citizen.
That is one for you, Cooper. All.
Right, Mitch hit me. Nathan Fielder, I hope that he's

(17:11):
a he's, he might not be a citizen.
Shoot. Nathan Fielder, He's a Canadian
citizen. I'm staying.
In So he's not an American. Citizen.
He's not a resident, but he is not an American citizen.
So that's Mac. I don't know a single one.
I'm going to go with John Krasinski because I don't even

(17:32):
know if he's from Canada. I don't think so.
I. Don't think so.

Solitaire or Klondike has cemented its legacy as the top
looking busy on your work computer game of all time.
Oh yeah. What Windows operating system
was the first to include Microsoft Solitaire by default?

(19:40):
Is it a 00? Mitch is going for the snipe.
I don't think you're going to give us, I'm going to go for it,
Windows 95. That's what I'd say.
She says not correct, but I'll get it.
I'll let you I'll let you buzz in last and go with possible
choice. Is it Windows 1.02?
Is it Windows 3 point O? Is it Windows XP or is it

(20:02):

It's the same. Now what are you going to say?

Microsoft. It is friend Timothy Solitaire.
1.2 I say. Timothy Klondike, Solitaire,
thank you very much. 1.0. 2 is also incorrect.
Oh no. I might be able to get it to
you. 5050. What are the two options?
I'm not. Going to say no, just kidding.

(20:43):
It's 3 or 10. Windows 3 or Windows 10?
No way it's 10. Yeah, I'll go with three.
That is correct, Mitch. Windows 3 is the first to
include Microsoft Solitaire in the beginning of an era.
