Episode Transcript
Calorogus Shark Media. Greetings trivia fans. I'm Mark Ellison, and
today we're playing trick you trivia questions where the obvious
answer isn't always the right answer. Don't trust your first instinct.
Question one? What color is a black box flight recorder
(00:23):
on an airplane? Question two? How long did the hundred
years War between England and France actually last? Question three?
Which country invented French Fries? Question four? What do you
(00:47):
call a baby rabbit? Question five? How many days are
in a lunar month? Will be right back with these
tricky answers after this break. Welcome back, trivia fans. Let's
(01:08):
reveal today's trick answers that might surprise you. Question one,
what color is a black box? Answer orange? Despite being
called black boxes, airplane flight recorders are actually bright international
orange to make them easier to spot in wreckage and debris.
They're officially called flight data recorders and cockpit voice recorders.
(01:30):
Question two, how long did thee hundred years War last? Answer?
One hundred sixteen years. The one hundred years War between
England and France actually lasted from thirteen thirty seven to
fourteen fifty three. That's one hundred sixteen years, not one hundred.
The name is more of a general description than an
(01:50):
exact time frame. Question three, which country invented French Fries?
Answer Belgium. Despite their name, French fries were likely invented
in Belgia, not France. The confusion may come from American
soldiers who encountered them in French speaking Belgium during World
War One and called them French fries. Question four, what
do you call a baby rabbit? Answer a kit or kitten.
(02:14):
While many people might say bunny, the correct term for
a baby rabbit is actually kit or kitten. Adult female
rabbits are called doze and males are called bucks. Question five.
How many days are in a lunar month? Answer about
twenty nine point five days. A lunar month, the time
(02:34):
from one new moon to the next is approximately twenty
nine point five days, not exactly thirty days like many
calendar months. This is why lunar calendars don't match up
perfectly with our solar calendar. That concludes today's five daily
trivia questions. I'm Mark Ellison, and today's questions were crafted
with the help of AI technology. If you'd like to
