Game shows and survival might seem like an unlikely pairing, but in this special birthday episode for Erik, we combine competitive trivia with life-saving knowledge in our revival of "Geopardy" (with a G, not a J—we're very particular about that).

Armed with buzzers and quick reflexes, TJ and Erik face off across six challenging categories: Will You Survive the Podcast, Zombie Knowledge, Urban Survival, The Conjuring, Bushcraft Hacks, and Gear You Forgot. The competition quickly heats up as they dive into questions ranging from easy 200-point softballs to brain-busting 1000-point stumpers.

Beyond the laughs and friendly trash talk, this episode actually packs in substantial survival information. Did you know that aluminum foil makes an excellent emergency signaling device? Or that charging cables can be repurposed to create snares in a pinch? How about using lip balm for waterproofing gear? These practical tips emerge alongside zombie trivia and bushcraft techniques as our hosts navigate the increasingly difficult questions.

The game reveals both surprising knowledge and amusing gaps in our hosts' expertise. TJ shines in the practical bushcraft questions, while Erik demonstrates unexpected knowledge about horror films. Throughout it all, Alex serves as quizmaster, occasionally bending the rules in the name of entertainment while keeping score of the rapidly changing leaderboard.

This episode is just part one of our Geopardy special, with more trivia challenges coming next week. Whether you're here for the competitive banter or the survival tips hidden within each question, you'll walk away entertained and slightly more prepared for whatever apocalyptic scenario might come your way.

Beopardy.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
I didn't know any of that.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
This is completely original to me, our whole
podcast is a fucking ripoff yeah, we've ripped off like
literally every podcast that welike to listen to all at once,
but that kind of.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
That's originality right there it's kind of mean
because I don't know any of thepodcasts you guys listen, except
for distractible.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
The only thing I know we ripped off was the
constitution episode yeah, well,we also kind of ripped off but
this is like such a looseconcept which is like the
whoever wins hosts the nextepisode thing that's a very
distractible thing, but likethat's more I, I don't know it's
a concept.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Yeah, it's a concept.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
I I like it allegedly .

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Oh, they got it from us quick question yeah,
obviously totally do you guys.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
Do you guys know the word vestibule and what it is?
Yes, yes I know the wordvestibule and what it is.
Yes, yes, I know the word.
I don't know what it is.
It's a transitional space thatacts as an entryway.

were like what the fuck word didyou just say to us?
What kind of fancy ass.
So far, five people haven'tknown it and three people have.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
Yeah, if you use it in a sentence I could figure it
out, but if you just ask me thedefinition.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
I can tell you.
Can you go grab that table fromthe vestibule and I'm like
uh-huh, oh no, I don't know whatthat means I wouldn't be able
to figure that out.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
I would literally be like, yeah, sure.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
And then I would go to next room and google what
that is.
Anyways, we're we're off topic.
We're off topic.
Host.
Back to jeopardy.
Jeopardy, it, uh, is played ina way that I will give you clues
and you have to give me theanswer.
If you will, you will ask thequestion.
It is in a question format, soif it is a person, you will say
who is.
If it is a thing, you will saywhat is?

Speaker 3 (03:44):
uh, I have and if we don't?

Speaker 1 (03:46):
you get it wrong ah doesn't count and for those who
can't see.
We have six columns, sixcategories and we're gonna go
ahead and start the round.

survival scenarios.
His approach blends logic withskepticism, keeping the podcast
from spiraling too fantasy eric,who is our beautiful host.

Speaker 3 (26:49):

like me, or tj, tj who is tj?
That is correct yeah, spiralingfrom from too far into reality.

I know, but he allowed it to happen that's all
I'm saying, saying I knowbecause I made it well-reasoned.
