It's podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where
conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer Newarth, and today
we're joined by Brody Henderson, Chester, Floyd Randall, Williams, Christine Siwiki,
Logan Dove, Hillary Burn, and Ben Long. Ben is a
freelance writer who contributes articles to the medeater dot com. Ben,
(00:31):
how do you think you're going to do in Meat
Eater Trivia?
Speaker 3 (00:34):
What you say they got?
Speaker 4 (00:34):
What?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Four verticals?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Four verticals?
Speaker 1 (00:36):
That's right?
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I think I got two verticals and two horizontals.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Okay, tell us about those?
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Well, I think I'm going to do okay on hunting
and conservation because that's where I spend most of my time.
I think fishing, unless they are fishing questions about northwestern
Montana kind of bloat chunks there. And cooking. I'm kind
of a salt pepper, medium rare kind of guy, and
that's kind of the end of it. So I'll guess.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
It's gonna need to be a little better than that
for cooking to get these right today. Now, you had
told me in an email that your filing system is strong,
but your but your retrieval system is old. And tethered.
Explain what that means?
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Well, you know, like Steve says that age has an advantage, right,
she had more time to soak up trivia. And I've
been told I have a very trivial mind, so that helps.
But the downside is that you get past a certain
age and it's harder to pull those you know, neurons
out of your head. So we'll see where it goes.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
You've forgotten more than a young guy like Chester has
ever learned.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
I'm sure I forgotten more than Chester.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Now, you just had You just had a book come
out earlier this year called Hunter and Angler Field Guide
to Raising Hell, tell folks what that book is about.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Thanks for the opportunity. Yeah, it's a it's basically a
primer on how to be a more effective conservationist. A
lot of my work is worth conservation groups, and it
basically is some of my experiences and my ways of
going about helping groups, helping conservationists, you know, achieve their goals,
whether it's policies protecting habitat, increasing access, are protecting the land,
(02:05):
that kind of thing. So it's kind of just a
real simple, effective way of getting things done.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Yeah, Tony Binham who has contributed some photography to med
Eater projects, He had said a similar thing to you.
He said, this book will make you a more effective conservationist,
which we love here at med Eater Trivia. Now this
is a ten round quiz show with questions from meat
Eater's four verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation and cooking,
and there is a prize. Med Eater will donate five
hundred dollars to the conservation organization of the winners, choosing
(02:36):
for the stat of the week. This week we're looking
at how meat Eater Trivia, the board game is so
hunter and angler friendly. Here's what I mean. The game
comes with a small tin carrying case that's meant to
fit in your glovebox, kayak, backpack, or wherever. You could
keep all the whiteboards, markers and one hundred questions in
the ten carrying case and it'll weigh less than eight ounces.
(03:00):
If you're even more weight conscious than that, you could
ditch the carrying case and hold everything together with rubber
bands and you're at less than five ounces. If that's
still too heavy, then only take one hundred questions, which
comes to at less which comes in at less than
three ounces. How does that compare to other board games? Well,
I weighed some this morning and here's what I learned.
(03:20):
Risk weighs three pounds, Life weighs two and a half pounds,
and Monopoly weighs two pounds. Even a standard deck of
fifty two playing cards weighs four ounces, which is twenty
five percent heavier than one hundred questions for Meat Eater Trivia.
So I'm declaring this the most backpacking friendly board game
on the market. Media or Trivia, the only board game
(03:42):
or Conservation always wins, comes out this fall.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
Hey, I've got a question for you, Spencer.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Do you got Chester?
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Are you guys gonna re up those questions after like
a couple of years. Here's my probot with a new.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Deck in twenty twenty three. We will have the board
game comes for sale this fall twenty twenty four. You're
going to be getting expansion packs.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
They could be maybe a.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Specific genre, maybe there for kids or white tails or
mountain men that is TBD, or maybe they're just more
questions from our four verticals. Nice, that's that's what we're
looking at. Brody, Do you take any games with you
in the back country as a deck of cards?
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Ever? Made it into your backpack.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
No, yeah, I can't remember ever doing that. But you know,
like if I was hount with my kid, like books
make an appearance.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Those cars more than this game, I bet.
Speaker 6 (04:36):
But no, no, generally try not to have that kind
of downtime.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
You know.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Here's our zero percenter question of the week, which tests
how much knowledge players have retained from previous games. This
question was from episode to eighty seven. The topic was fishing,
and nobody got it right. If you know the answer,
you can just shout it out. What do you call
the hybrid fish that's created by a largemouth pass and smallmouth.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Bass A mean mouth? You got it, Brody, you didn't
get at the time because.
Speaker 5 (05:05):
I remember.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
Back then you were like all excited about this mean
mouth world record, which worship because it's just some artificial
thing that's made.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
You know. It's like, yeah, is this mean as an
angry or mean as an average?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
So that's it. That's a great question. The name was
given to them because some biologists had a broodstock pond
of meanmouth bass that he saw attack a dog that
was swimming in the pond. They're known to be more
aggressive than a large mouth and small mouth so mean
as an angry kill your dog, average man.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Sounds like they'd be fun to catch.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
You have to find some chester to tangle with. We
have some housekeeping to get to. Daniel Brickey wrote in
with a golf term that he believes should be added
to the meat Eater trivia lexicon. Here's what he means.
The word dormy refers to when a match play golfer
is winning by the same number of holes that are left.
So if a golfer is up three with three holes
(06:05):
to go, then they are dormy. This term is derived
from a French word that means to sleep, implying that
the player who is dormy can relax. So how does
that apply to media to trivia? Well, for example, Randall
is winning by one point with one question to go,
then he is dormy. The term is a compliment, affirming
that the player is winning, but also puts extreme pressure
(06:28):
on them to not choke. So going forward, we'll try
to call out when a player is dormy to see
how clutch they really.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
I think you're gonna run in trouble with that.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
What do you what do you think we're gonna learn?
Speaker 6 (06:38):
I think there'll be some individuals other than myself that
are uncomfortable with like that.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
Golf comparison pretty dormant when it comes to try.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
I remember my grandpa when we played cribbage and if
you if you lost with your hole at the end
of the peg, last peg, you call it dian in
the stink hole. So maybe that could be one.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
And that's what feels like.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
I'm familiar with that.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
You know, Randall has been in that stinkhole. Now, come
out of your funk yet, what.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Happened lying awake last night thinking about it?
Speaker 6 (07:12):
It's the cold, sweat all night long, brutal.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
See if we can turn it around today. Now, the
Shelby index for today's round is a three and a half,
so our winner should get seven correct answers. And with
that we're onto the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Look, I need to know what I stand to win everything?
How's that? Just tend to win everything?
Speaker 7 (07:44):
Game?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
On Suckers Question one, the topic is hunting. This first
great question comes to his fia Jessica Tracy. If you
have a question you think is right for med Eater Trivia,
you can send it to trivia at the Medeater dot com.
The plot hound is the official dog breed of this state?
Is it Oklahoma, North Carolina, Alabama, or Ohio?
Speaker 5 (08:10):
Man, Randally, you knew that one.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I don't think. I don't think I do. I just
have a feeling.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
The topic is hunting. The plot hoound is the official
dog breed of this state. Your four choices are Oklahoma,
North Carolina, Alabama, or Ohio. Brody, are you as confident
as Randall?
Speaker 6 (08:33):
Randall said he wasn't call again.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
Yeah, let me reiterate.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Question, just making snap judgments. Okay, Ben, how do you
feel about your answer here?
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Fifty fifty?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
This is in one of the verticals you declared, is
a vertical of yours.
Speaker 6 (08:51):
I'm pretty sure I've heard.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
We'll see how you do. The plot hoound is the
official dog breed of this state. Oklahoma, North Carolina, Alabama, Ohio.
Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have been saying North Carolina, Hillary saying North Carolina. Chester,
you're saying North Carolina, Randall saying North Carolina, Logan saying Alabama,
(09:15):
Christine saying Oklahoma. Brody's saying North Carolina. The correct answer
is North Carolina. The room.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Very well, I've got a question.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
What do you got.
Speaker 6 (09:26):
I feel like when I've heard about this dog breed,
it's Carolina plot hound. But I could be wrong. I
don't remember ever hearing North Carolina plot I remember hearing
Carolina plot.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Well, but what I mean by official dog breed? Like
it is a state like this? What's the state fish
in Montana? Yellowstone cutthroat or something like that?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Throat?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Okay, this this would be the official that should have
been a question of North Carolina.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Yeah, I was gonna say averse that has it as
a mascot.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Maybe I think that the University of Tennessee has a
coon dog on their sidelines, but I think that might
be a bluetick. I nomina have corrections the issue in
the future over this now. North Carolina designated the plot
hoound as their official state dog breed in nineteen eighty nine.
It wasn't until two thousand and six when the American
Kennel Club recognized them as a breed, and it wasn't
(10:25):
until two thousand and eight when the plot Hoound competed
in the Westminster Dog Show. Of the seven recognized coonhounds,
they're the only one that didn't descend from a foxhound.
Question two, the topic is cooking. Merriam Webster defines this
dish as quote a spread of finely chopped or perade
(10:48):
seasoned meat. This is the Merriam Webster definition. Come and
it is quote a spread of finely chop or perade
seasoned meat. The room is not confident, Logan, do you
(11:09):
have an answer?
Speaker 1 (11:10):
It's I think so okay? You think you have it right?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Merriam Webster defines this dish as quote a spread of
finely chopped You.
Speaker 6 (11:20):
Got to stop talking.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Seasoned meat. Brody would like some silence. Is anybody confident
in their answer?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
The room is.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Merriam Webster defines.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
This dim I'm torn torn.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
A spread of finely chopped or purade seasoned meat. How
many answers are you torn between?
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Brody?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
You think one of them is definitely right? It is
everybody who's going to come up with an answer? Have
an answer for a spread of finely chopped or perade
seasoned meat. Christine, Oh, so you ready?
Speaker 3 (12:12):
I'm as ready as I will ever be. I would
say that as a first time player. The TikTok in
the headphones is like so loud.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
And is it is it helping or hurting your your ability?
Speaker 3 (12:24):
It's not helping.
Speaker 6 (12:26):
Just play without your headphones.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
That it's like steroids. It's everybody ready, go ahead and
reveal your answers. We have Ben saying liverwurst, Hillary saying tartar.
Chest You're saying Pat, Randall saying Pat, Logan saying tartar,
Christine saying minced meat. Brody's saying tartar. He crossed out Pat.
(12:54):
We have a correct answer in the room. It's Pat.
Speaker 7 (12:58):
Damn it.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
A few folks got it right. This is how Steve
Ranella described the appetizer quote. Wild game patae is a
fancy dish that turned small odds and ends of meat
into pure gold. It's the perfect thing to make as
a sophisticated first course when you're hosting a SWANKI you
get together to get his recipe, go to the mediater
(13:19):
dot com and type in wild game petae.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
I thought it was only made out of liver.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
So close I would.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Say that the liver worst is a example.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Perhaps we're going for the question of tartar definition.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
I wrote down pete immediately and then spent the rest
of the time trying to think of tartar.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
I will find you the definition of tartar while we're
waiting for you to answer question three. The topic is gear.
This next great question comes to as via Titus mckenti.
If you have a question you think is right for
Meat Eater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at
the medeater dot com. In optics lingo, the acronym s
(14:00):
f P stands for second blank blank. You need to
tell me the last two words of the acronym s
f P. And this is in the world of optics. Brody,
do some filibustering for me while I look up the
(14:20):
definition of tartar. What do you got Forrest Brody?
Speaker 6 (14:26):
I don't have anything Like I thought pat ta was
like something that was made out of liver, and that
question said meat. This is why I put tartar, which
is like finally chopped in seasoned meat.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
I'm gonna third that. I was gonna say it was
a spread or puree, but that was in the question,
so it couldn't be that.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
But I'm not gonna be this cal thing where I'm
arguing five questions later.
Speaker 7 (14:51):
Here here is.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
The Merriam webs you did ask him to fill time.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Here is the Merriam Webster definition of tartar highly seasoned
ground meat eaten raw.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
It's that definition is.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Fifty different than the one that we had for PATA.
Now here's the question for three again. In optics lingo,
the acronym SFP stands for second blank blank.
Speaker 6 (15:19):
Was that Steve's question or he just weighed.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Out it was not. That was something he wrote on
the website for his rest a pat.
Speaker 5 (15:28):
A though just seems more spreadable.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
Yeah, that's kind of what I was.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah, the word spread was in the definition.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I'll read it for you again.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
I remember period is a spread of finely chopped or
perade seasoned meat. Is everybody ready to show their answers
for question three? Second blank blank? Go ahead and reveal
your answers. We have Ben saying focal point, Hillary saying
focal point, Chester's saying second focal point, Randall's saying full plane,
(16:01):
Logan saying focal plane, Christine saying faraway point, Brody's saying
focal point. The correct answer is focal plane, which rifle
got right. Scopes can either be FFP, which is first
(16:21):
focal plane, or SFP, which is second focal plane. These
terms refer to the placement of a scopes radical. To
learn which one is right for you, go to the
mediator dot com and read Jordan Siler's article called first
focal plane versus second focal plane rifle scopes.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
How are you feeling over there, Randal?
Speaker 4 (16:40):
Pretty good about yourself? Oh? I can't be comfortable until
the dust has settled.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Question four. The topic is conservation. This state's record mule deer,
which was poached in two thousand and four, is known
as the David Letterman Buck. Oh sorry, guys, here's the
question again.
Speaker 7 (17:03):
Ignore what is on the TV.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Phil is battling through some technical difficulties. Topic is conservation.
This state's record mule deer, which was poached in two
thousand and four, is known as the David Letterman Buck.
I'm gonna have to do without looking at this question
(17:29):
on Phil's fancy TV.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Here it is again.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
This state's which was poached in two thousand and four,
is known as the David Letterman Buck. Randall could find
himself dormy with four questions to go in this with
Brody falling behind early.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
I keep staring at the screen out of habit.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Yes, somebody asked if you need to name the state.
That's the answer I'm looking for. You need to tell
me what state had their record mule deer poached in
two thousand and four, which is known as the David
Letterman Buck.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
How big was that buck?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
We can talk about it in the follow up.
Speaker 5 (18:10):
Effect that.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
One was even.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
I'm not gonna be able to tell you about that
in the follow up fact toy, that's who shot him?
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Stude?
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Ben saying Montana, Hillary saying Wisconsin, Chester saying Colorado,
Randall's saying Montana, Logan saying Wyoming, Christine saying California, Brody
saying Montana.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
Didn't he have a place in Montana?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
The correct answer is Montana. The David Letterman Buck scored
just over two hundred and seven inches and has one
of the most interesting backstories of any record book deer.
Our guest Ben Long wrote about that deer in a
twenty twenty three article, Ben, tell folks about how this.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
But I also show how well read it was. Give
him the story about right right. The buck was post
on a ranch on the Rocky Mound Front is owned
by the famous late night talk show host David Letterman
why and he.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
He got ed.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
They clear about that David Utterman had nothing to do
with it, except that the person who who posts the
buck was also charged with conspiracy to kidnap David David
Letterman's child, which is what actually led to the to
the recovery of the buck. So anyway, can read all
about it at.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
The meadeater dot com.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
I want to give a few more details because I
love this story so much. He was a painter who
was hired by David Letterman to do some work, right yep.
And this painter had created a plan to kidnap David
Letterman's sixteenth month old son I think, I think a
son or daughter plus the nanny, and it was then
going to get like a five million dollar ransom. And
(19:56):
somebody tattled on this guy, and during the investigation they
also uncovered this book that he happened to poach, which
is the Montana Record.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
I don't think he was ever convicted of kidnapping. I
was charged with conspiracy kidnapping and charge of possession of
the deer of an illegally taken animal. But he served
his prison time, escape from prison, went back to prison,
and is now released because he served his you know,
his time.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
One of my favorite stories on our website. Question five,
the topic is fishing. This company with a rhyming name sells,
quote the original soft plastic curly tail lure. This company
with a rhyming name sells the original soft plastic curly
(20:43):
tail lure. That is a quote from their website, the
original soft plastic curly tail lure. Brody is very confident.
The rest of the room not so much.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Chester.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Do you have this one right?
Speaker 5 (20:58):
Well? I thing popped in my head next to you.
I don't have anything written down popped in my head immediately,
but I do have some second thoughts about it, so
I'm giving it just a little more thought.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
This company with a rhyming name sells the original soft
plastic curly tail lure. Randall's Humunculous has found it. You
think you have this one right now?
Speaker 4 (21:26):
Actually I'm second now. I'm wondering if I'm just making
this up. Let's find out its rhyming and not not alliteration.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
And the question is the question just looking for clarification. Brody,
you one hundred percent have this right.
Speaker 6 (21:41):
I will throw myself off a cliff if I.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
That is confidence. It's everybody who's going to come up
with an answer, have an answer for the company with
a rhyming name.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Chester.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
You have an answer, but you're not sure if it's
the right answer.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
I don't think it's right.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Okay, does it rhyme?
Speaker 5 (22:01):
I mean no?
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Then that it's not right either. Is everybody ready? Go
ahead and reveal your answers. We have been saying squirmy
without an answer, Chester, I can't see your board, Chester,
He says, twistertail. He went for alliteration. Randall saying mister twister,
Logan saying big bass baits. Christine is saying swim gym,
(22:28):
which I love. Christine. That's not right. That's a good answer,
Brodie's saying mister twister. Him and Randall got it. It
is mister twister.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
I said you.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Anybody who could come up with a rhyme under pressure
should get a half a point.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
Dude, I hate this game.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Rick Well created the first curly tail grub in nineteen
seventy five. He said that before that most soft plastics
lacked life like action, so he created a four inch
grub with a tail that moved on its own. With
billions sold, it's one of the most popular a phishing
lures of all time. Phil, we are halfway through the
(23:04):
game of trivia. Give us a scoreboard update.
Speaker 7 (23:08):
You got Christine yet to make an impression on the
scoreboard zero points, Logan and Hillary have one point apiece, Chester,
Ben and Brody Henderson all have two points, and Man
just miles ahead of everyone else with a perfect game.
Rand williams, kay, I don't do what we want to
remind that.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
They got Montana. Did you get North Carolina? Yeah, he
got North Carolina.
Speaker 7 (23:34):
I missed the North Carolina one. I'm not having a
rough go of it as I apologize.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Okay, he's got so sorry.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Brody has three.
Speaker 7 (23:40):
Randall is still two points ahead.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
Brody. That feels good, though there's the pressure.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Uh. Randall would prefer he'd prefer to win by two
than three. Is that right?
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (23:52):
Question helper back, there is gonna have to start and
keeping score.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Honestly, it would be a huge help. Question six. The
topic is public Lands. This is our listener question of
the week, which was won by Hunter Payne for sending
this great question. Hunter is going to get a book
(24:17):
signed by Steve name. Two of the four states that
are over sixty percent federal land. Confident Brody, Ben, and
Randall Again, I need you to name two of the
four states that are over sixty percent federal land. Brody,
do you think you have one in two? Is that
(24:38):
how confident you are?
Speaker 6 (24:39):
That's a good question. I think so probably, Ben, Like
as far as acreage or percentage.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Percent, I need you to name two of the four
states that are old.
Speaker 6 (24:49):
But you're asking if I have sixty.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
One?
Speaker 4 (24:53):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Ben.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
How confident are you?
Speaker 1 (24:55):
And your answer?
Speaker 3 (24:56):
I'm feel good about it?
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Feeling good, Randall?
Speaker 4 (24:59):
Pretty good, feeling pretty good.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Those three treated it like a race, guessing they have
it right. Brody, whin's the last time you fished with
a Mister Twister curly tail grub.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Two a weekend?
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Yeah? Yeah? How to go for you? Perch? Liked it ever?
Speaker 6 (25:17):
Anything on that any fish in the world.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
That's right? Man.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
It's funny that answer popped into my head and I thought, ah,
and then immediately doubt. Oh it just my all my
confidence vanished.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
I don't know why I couldn't think of that, Randall,
I have or excuse me, Chester, I have a feeling
your tackle box has a lot of mister Twister. Yeah
tails in it.
Speaker 5 (25:39):
Yeah, I I I just call them like twister tails.
I'm like a little grub, you know, twister tails.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
But does everybody have an answer to answers for two
of the four states that are over sixty percent federal land, Hillary,
are you ready go ahead and reveal your answers? We
have been saying Alaska, Nevada, Hillary saying Wyoming, North Dakota,
Chester saying Alaska, Wyoming. Randall's saying Wyoming, Nevada, Logan saying Montana, Idaho,
(26:11):
Christine saying Wyoming, Idaho, Brody saying Idaho, Alaska. The four
states are Nevada, Utah, Idaho, and Alaska. A few folks
got tripped up with a few folks got it right.
At eighty five percent, Nevada leads the country in percentage
of land that's federally owned. That's followed by Utah at
(26:35):
sixty five percent, Idaho at sixty two percent, and Alaska
at sixty one percent. Just missing out of the top
four are Oregon at fifty three percent, Wyoming at forty
eight percent, California at forty six percent, in Arizona at
thirty nine percent.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Can I just take a moment to see yet? Can
I just enjoy the moment of being you know, both
Randel and Brody at that question, because that might be
my high point of the game.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
He did, well, I don't know. We'll learn Alaska. A
few folks said that Alaska would be the gimme, and
then you'd be choosing from one of three after that.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Mm hmmm.
Speaker 2 (27:14):
Question seven, the topic is hunting. What measurement is multiplied
by ten when scoring a turkey for the n w
t F Record Books. What measurement is multiplied by ten
when scoring a turkey for the n w t F
(27:36):
Record Books. A confident Ben, rest of the room, not
so confident, Logan, do you know this one?
Speaker 5 (27:44):
No?
Speaker 7 (27:45):
Have you ever wrote on a turkey?
Speaker 1 (27:46):
Part? Okay?
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Have you ever killed a turkey?
Speaker 1 (27:48):
I did?
Speaker 7 (27:48):
Yeah, this past year.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
I killed my friend one very good. Did you score it?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Okay, Brody would have said that's the wrong answer if
you said yes.
Speaker 6 (27:57):
So I don't even scoring turkeys.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
What measurement is multiplied by ten when scoring a turkey
for the NWTF Record Books? I know, just Brody has
not yet come up with an answer.
Speaker 6 (28:13):
A lot of parts on a turkey?
Speaker 2 (28:14):
And this is question seven, Randall, do you know this one,
or are you guessing.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
I'm guessing there are only so many parts of a
turkey that I'm familiar with measuring. Okay, I've not killed
a turkey. I'm not a big turkey guy. Okay, turkey
season is bear hunting season.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Brody, I think we're waiting on you. Do you have
an answer? Is everybody ready? Hillary? Go ahead and reveal
your answers. We have been saying spur length, Hillary, I
can't see your board. Hillary is saying tail span, Chester
(28:59):
saying spur l length, Randall saying beard length, Logan saying spurs,
Christine saying beard length. Brody's saying spurs. The correct answer
is spur length. If you just said spur we will
give it to you. Turkeys are scored using three measurements weight,
(29:19):
beard length, and spur length. The weight is multiplied by one,
the beard is multiplied by two, and the spurs are
multiplied by ten. To see this process, go to the
mediat dot com and watch Clay Newcomb's video called how
to score a Turkey. Question eight. The topic is fishing.
This ten letter word describes a juvenile fish that's roughly
(29:44):
the size of a human body part. The topic is phishing.
This is question eight. We have three questions left and
we will get a scoreboard update from Fill the engineer
after this. This ten letter word describe he is a
juvenile fish that's roughly the size of a human body part. Randall,
(30:05):
do you have this one right?
Speaker 4 (30:06):
I do.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
That's that's confidence. No wavering on his end. Ben, you
are also quick to answer, do you have this one right?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
I have to start with a five letter word, but
not to ten letter words. I think I'm good.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Okay, Brody is thinking hard. If he doesn't get this right,
that may be the ballgame, but we will. We will
find out from Phil after this.
Speaker 4 (30:31):
You guys talk.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
Amongst This ten letter word describes a juvenile fish that's
roughly the size of a human body part. Ben and
Randall may be the only ones who get this one right.
What are we communicating about over there? We're doing some winking,
We're doing some scorekeeping.
Speaker 7 (30:50):
Okay, I've just made so many small mistakes today that
I'm second guessing everything I'm doing over here. Points.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Yes, I've noticed a few people in the room will
actually keep their own score on their white bod, which
is is good. That can be h the backup.
Speaker 4 (31:06):
Yeah, oh, I might be counting that, might be counting
this as a correct answer.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Now, Brody just came up with an answer that he's
quite satisfied with. He had sort of an evil laugh. Uh,
do you think you have it right now? His ten
letter word describes a juvenile fish that's roughly the size
of a human body part. Was staring at the whole time.
Is everybody? Is everybody ready? Chester waving the white flag?
(31:40):
Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have been saying fingerling,
Hillary without an answer, Chester without an answer, Randall saying fingerling,
Logan and Christine without an answer. Brody saying fingerling.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
They got it.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
The correct answer is fingerling. At the fingerling stage, most
fish species are about the lane of a human finger.
When they reach this size, they've developed the majority of
their protective scales and fins. Although fingerling fish resemble an adult,
they have not yet achieved sexual maturity. Phil, where does
(32:15):
the leaderboard stand? With two questions to go, Well, we have.
Speaker 7 (32:19):
To say goodbye to Christine, Hillary, Logan, and Chester, but
we've got our guest Ben with five points and then
tied up in first place are Randall and Brody with
six ah and.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
I wish I could have that path take question now,
we have some questionable scorekeeping in Randall's mind.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Over there, Randall, what do you think?
Speaker 4 (32:37):
No, no, I think we're that Yeah, we're.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
Tied tied with six?
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Okay, sure, well.
Speaker 4 (32:43):
Did you get all three of the past.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Do we need to do a review now? That would
that help everybody?
Speaker 4 (32:49):
I had the score wrong in my mind. I shan't
be writing it down.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
Question nine. The topic is wildlife. This next great question
comes to is via Paul s. If you have a
question you think right for meat Eater Trivia, you can
send it to trivia at the medeater dot com. Minnesota
Is official state bird, which is often misidentified as a duck,
is one of the only birds in North America with
solid bones. Right, that is right. Minnesota's official state bird,
(33:21):
which is often misidentified as a duck, is one of
the only birds in North America with solid bones.
Speaker 6 (33:29):
You need to elaborate at all on this one, Spencer.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
If you think the answer is a largemouth bass, you
could just say a bass.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
That's what I was looking for.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Some quick answers in the room, and this is question nine.
It's everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers. We
have been saying loon Hillary without an answer, Chester saying loon,
Randall saying lune, Logan's saying crane, Christine saying lun, Brody
(34:03):
saying lon.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
I gotta do my Steve imitation. Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
The correct answer is loon. Loom did very well. Lons
have solid bones so that they are less buoyant and
can better dive underwater. This helps them acquire some of
their favorite foods like fish, crawdads, shrimp, and crabs. Some
other birds with solid bones include penguins, puffins, and EMUs. Now, Brody,
(34:29):
I noticed you first wrote down merganzer. You had a
change of heart.
Speaker 5 (34:33):
I did.
Speaker 6 (34:34):
I just jumped the gun.
Speaker 4 (34:35):
Okay, I'll just point out that thing.
Speaker 3 (34:37):
So I said common loon, which is the official bird
of months of Minnesota, and there's like Arctic loons, yellow
bill loons in red Well.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
We had a clarification. I said, you didn't have to
be that splotish.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
That's what I'm you.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
You nailed it, dead nuts, Phil, We have one question left.
Who's left in the game.
Speaker 7 (34:56):
Oh, it's the same place we were in last last
scorekeeping call. We've got Ben with six and then Randal
and Brody still tied up with seven points apiece.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
Question ten down to the wire. The topic is cooking.
What countries cuisine are fuh and bon me from? Very
confident room? What countries cuisine are Fu and bon me from?
(35:25):
Looks like we will be going to overtime. The confidence
that Randall and Brody have what countries cuisine are Fhu
and bond me from? Chess are doing some racing, So
it's Ben that's I feel this is question ten. Brody
(35:50):
is doing some second guessing.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
I'm questioning it now.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
Everyone's racing now Randall. Randall is confident. Oh, Brody is
going to leave his answer.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
I'm just it's okay.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Well, is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We have Ben saying Vietnam. Hillary's saying Vietnam.
Speaker 5 (36:10):
Chess island chests.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
You're saying Thailand didn't want to show us, Randall's saying Vietnam,
Logan saying Vietnam, Christine saying Thailand, Brody saying Vietnam. The
correct answer is Vietnam. The room did pretty well. Fa
is the most famous Vietnamese meal. It's a rice noodle
soup that's made with broth, meat, and herbs. Bond me
(36:33):
is also known as a Vietnamese baguette. It's an airy
piece of bread that's split lengthwise and filled with meat
and veggies. The media dot com has wild game recipes
for both With that, we're going to overtime between Brody
and Randall. Play the drop, Phil, how they.
Speaker 7 (36:56):
Just cut it at if you ain't first your laughs
and then like go to other stuff.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
It's funny.
Speaker 7 (37:01):
I never liked it a Phil goff Man.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
The tie breaking topic is woodsmanship. According to the National
Weather Service, what percentage of American lightning strike victims are male?
This is a numerical question. Whoever is closest between Brody
and Randall will be declared the winner. The rest of
(37:26):
the room will play along, though in case they hit
it right on the nose and we can add an
extra one hundred dollars donation to the end of the game.
Speaker 6 (37:33):
Are you looking for a decimalness?
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Go to a decimal point to one decimal point. It's
a great question, Brody. According to the National Weather Service,
what percentage of American lightning strike victims are male? Randal,
how does your attitude in this tie breaking round compared
(37:55):
to last week.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
I mean last week. I had already checked out meal.
In fact, I knew the answer wasn't correct because the
question was asked in the past tense, and I gave
a date in the future.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
You even correctly called me out on it.
Speaker 4 (38:10):
Yeah, you had. I mean, I just wanted to put
my head down on the table.
Speaker 7 (38:16):
Here.
Speaker 4 (38:16):
I it's a.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
Toss up, right according to the National Weather Service, what
percentage of American lightning strike victims are male. We're down
to Randall and Brody, who each got what was it
seven correct answers?
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Or was it eight?
Speaker 2 (38:37):
It was eight eight correct answers. It's everybody ready, go
ahead and reveal your answers. We have Ben is saying
eighty four point five, Hillary saying chess, You're saying ninety
four percent. Logan is saying eighty seven point five percent,
(38:58):
Christine is saying seventy five point four percent, Brody's saying
seventy three point two. Randal saying seventy three point nine.
Good thing. When we went to the decimal points, they're
within point seven points of each other, two pointo point
six point seven points of each other. The correct answer
(39:20):
is seventy nine percent, making winner well done, Randal, eight
correct answers. You were close on the tie breaking answer.
What a performance? How does it feel, Randal?
Speaker 4 (39:36):
You know, if to be honest, I'm still I'm still
overcoming last week's tragedy.
Speaker 1 (39:41):
Huh.
Speaker 4 (39:42):
But it feels good. It's good to be back in
the game. Kind of clear my mind, little confidence back camp.
I'm not a total failure.
Speaker 2 (39:51):
Seventy nine percent of lightning strike victims are male. This
is because men participate in more high risk activities like fishing, hunting, hike,
and camping. Both of you were right in the ballpark, though, Randall,
you get to choose where the five hundred dollars donation
from met eater goes. So what's it going to be?
Speaker 4 (40:10):
I would like the five hundred dollars to go to
the Rocky Mountain Goat Alliance, which is a nonprofit group
based here in Montana that organizes, among other things, a
bunch of citizens science goat counts to help biologists and
state agencies better understand the population on the landscape. And
I've participated in some of their accounts in the past
(40:33):
and it's always a good time. And what mountain range
I was actually the first one I went to was
in the Black Hills.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
Oh Wyoming or South Dakota, South Dakota.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
Did you find any Oh?
Speaker 4 (40:44):
Yeah, we saw quite a few and it was a
lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
Very good Randall, the winner of today's episode of Mediatter Trivia. Ben,
thank you for joining us. Your book is out right now.
Hunter and angler Field Guide to Raising Hell. Did that
go about how you expect it to go?
Speaker 4 (41:00):
Well?
Speaker 3 (41:00):
I would just like to point out that when I
said my granda if I was playing cribbage with my
grandpa right now, he said, sorry, Ben, you died in
the stinkhole right I had a good time doing it
for me.
Speaker 2 (41:09):
Join us next time for more Meat Eater Trivia, the
only game show where conservation always wins.
