Ep. 846: Game On, Suckers! MeatEater Trivia CCVII

Welcome to Meet Eater's 12 and 26 presented by Multi-Mobile and On-X Maps. 12 of Meet Eater's biggest and baddest hunts from the last year released throughout 2026. These are long-form episodes, so you get more of what you love.

The first one up is my baited bear hunt in Manitoba. If you've ever wondered what a baited bear hunt is like, you'll love this episode. My favorite part was watching a younger bear spend an hour trying to figure out how to get a creatively hung beaver

carcass down from a tree. Check it out now on Meet Eater's YouTube channel and be on the lookout for more 12 and 26 in the coming months. It's Meet Eater's podcast. Welcome to Meet Eater Trivia, the only game show

where conservation always wins.

I'm your host, Spencer Newheart, and today we're joined by Yannis Randall Brody, Seth Kori, Hanzi, and Max. This is a 10 round quiz show with questions from Meet Eater's four verticals,

which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. There is a prize. Meet Eater will donate $500 to the conservation organization of the winners choosing. You see how Randall didn't interrupt you, there?

He'll have a chance. He'll have a chance. He'll have a chance. He'll have a chance. He'll have a chance.

I'm talking with my friend. I'm talking with my friend here. For the rest of the week, this week, let's look at player performance over the last year. As we just discussed, we're now in season five.

So we're looking at player performance from season four. This data stretch is from early 2025 to early 2026. For this week, we'll cover the hunting category. Here are the top five players from fifth to first. On average, Nate gets 62% of hunting questions correct.

Randall is 70%, Brody is 72%. Steve is 73% in our best performer is Janis, who gets 80%, 80% of hunting questions. What happens is the world's greatest hunter? Janis had a good year last year.

Have you always said that, Brody?

Oh, yeah, go on back decades. So Janis, 80% of hunting questions correct. Hansi, you were just on the outside.

“I think you were at 60% almost time for you.”

Did you factor in my numbers? What should I factor about your numbers? Yeah, they were factor days. Yeah, just like didn't go above 10%. Not top five.

No. Top 10? I think you were top 10, Max. Yeah. Are we have some housekeeping to get to?

Probably not. How do you have a previous episode of Trivia? We had a question about the fishing contraption that helps position your boat on Wendy

days and looks like, quote, a huge ice cream cone with the small end cut out.

The correct answer was Drift, sock, or Drift anchor, but about 20 listeners wrote in with feedback. They said, Drog should also be an accepted answer. Drog is defined as, quote, a cone shaped or parachute-like device typically made of heavy duty fabric that is trailed behind or off the side of your boat to create significant

water resistance. So it is the same thing as a Drift sock.

“And if you said, Drog, for your answer, then you also got that one, right?”

Other dozen folks wrote in to say that Sea Anchor should also be correct and they are right. Sea Anchor is another accepted term for the same thing. It is a Drift sock, Drift anchor, or Drog. So many acceptable answers for that one.

All right. The Shelby index for today is a four. So our winner should get eight correct answers. And with that, we're on to the game of Trivia. Play the drop, Phil.

Look, I need to know what I stand to win, everything. How's that? Just tend to win everything. Question one, the topic is cooking, and this will be multiple choice. Which of these rows comes from the front shoulder of an animal?

Is it chuk, romp, sirloin, round? One of those rows comes from the front shoulder of an animal. Which one is it? She'll happen to her. romp.

Because her own is so round, knew it that he had to emphatically slam his board to the table. Wow. So much to the audience. And y'all have pretty names written on their boards. Yeah, that looks great.

That's also wonderful. I want to get home. Can't wait for your friend to go as far as I'm going to talk about this way. To me, 10 seconds. Think about what I can do in two hours.

Okay. That's cheaper than I thought that we'd knock out t-shirts between fishing trips and Florida. Randall? Yep.

“Actually, you should design one right now for your trip, comes from the front shoulder of”

an animal.

While you're down there, think of a fishing shirt.

Is it chuk, romp, sirloin? Proud of this one, Max? But not on the tarp. I'm fishing. A little hesitant.

Mmm. Maybe. Hmm. Way to go, son. Well, I thought it was like, yeah, no one's going to do that.

I just told you I have it right. I know. But like. You're trying something wrong. It's a vaguely style.

I was like, no. I thought that show right here.

“Which of these rows comes from the front shoulder of an animal?”

Chuk, romp, sirloin, round is everybody ready. Sure. Once he's making one last change, go ahead and reveal your answers. Hansi says round, Janice and Seth and Randall and Cory, Max and Brody, say chuk.

The correct answer is the chuk.

Roast. Can you explain Virgil's daddy's? Seth. He's having a kid this week. Well, why is it saying it on your board?

Is that the arrow points to Seth? Oh. Okay. Seth and I really synced up today. So I wanted to make sure that our bonds, are you going to be Virgil's godfather?

No, but I'm making a play for you. But we see. But we see. Is Virgil going to have a godfather, Seth? Chuk brother.

Chuk brother. Chuk brother. Put her there. Chuk brother. Who's taking a good time?

We haven't told it. Yeah. I don't know. We haven't told it. Yeah.

I don't know. We haven't told it. We haven't told it. I don't know. We haven't told it.

I don't know. We haven't told it. I don't know. The rump round and sirloin all come from the back half of an animal while the chuk comes from the shoulder to neck area.

Chuk roast are best cooked low and slow and served shredded or cubed were a great chuk roast recipe. Go see Daniel Prood's Venison carnitas recipe on themediter.com. So I was considering like the chuk like all the neck mate and so I wasn't considering that the front shoulder.

I think he gets a little neck. Yeah. Just a little bit of your butcher. Mostly shoulder. Question two, the topic is hunting.

This is our listener. Question of the week, which was won by Veronica Driz, presenting this great question. Veronica is going to get a board game signed by the crew.

“If you want to chance to win our listener question of the week, then send your question”

to [email protected]. This seven letter word, which is often associated with quail, is defined as, quote, a tough or crest of feathers on the top of on the head of the bird. This seven letter word, which is often associated with quail, is defined as, quote, a tough or crest of feathers on the head of a bird.

We have a stumped room, roti, has an answer. You have a seven letter answer, bro. I do, and I'm not going to think about another one. See the writer. It's wrong.

He didn't slam his board down this time. That's quite a confidence. The topic is hunting this seven letter word, which is often associated with quail. It's defined as, quote, a tough or crest of feathers on the head of a bird. And we will look at a picture of one of these in the flavor text.

Ooh. Damn it. That one's eight. Just take the last letter all. I bet you're wrong.

No, no. No question. The seven letter word, which is often associated with quail, is defined as, a tough or crest of feathers on the head of a bird. Hmm.

You have it? Hmm. I like my answer. It could be a zero percentor. Yeah.

“I've already had second thoughts, but it's going to come up with another seven letter word.”

And I'll just get on the whole Google argument. There you go. But I need to. Yes. This is really going to have our only play.

Wow. Quail brothers. Well, there's not a lot of serious quail hunters in the room, not serious as me, you know. Yeah. So he's got that one right.

Corridor, you have a shot at this one. There's a good chance that I got about a 50%. Okay.

Good chance that you have a 50 percent chance.

It's like an 80 percent chance. Yeah. Well, I say a good chance of something happening is like 75 percent. So you have a 75 percent chance that you have a 50 percent chance. Do you have a 100?

I don't know. That's like introduced non-native quail out of the panel. I don't know. I know. I know someone that was going to do it today.

I don't know. No. You? No. It's like four hours of hours.

This seven letter word, which is often, which is often associated with quail is defined as a tough, or crest of feathers on the head of a bird. Does our room give up? Oh. Yeah.

Yes.

Hanzi without an answer.

Yannis says plumage, Seth without an answer.

Randy says plumage, Corey says. No hawk. Max says Bob White. Brody got it right. He says top not.

Wow. It's a top not. T-O-P-K-N-O-T. A top right. A top right.

No idea. Hot your top not. Mountain quail, California quail and gambles quail have some of the most famous topnotes in the animal kingdom. In most cases, male birds have larger, mortified topnotes than females.

The purpose of this headgear is to attract mates, intimidate rivals, and signal sexual maturity. Bill has a picture for us to a gambles quail, and it's comma shaped topnotes. Love.

“How's one of the neat things living in Salt Lake City?”

These things just live in the city and everybody's yards.

And you get to look at quail at the times around here. Arizona has a quail with a very defined top not in its game agency logo. So I'm going to folks who live there got that one. Question three, the top biggest conservation. Sea Smart declared that this river, which is the longest in India, is the most polluted

waterway in the world. What's Sea Smart? Smith's Sea Smart is a conservation group who tracks pollution like this. Sea Smart declared that this river, which is the longest in India, is the most polluted waterway in the world.

Max. Name a river in India. That's where I mean, that's from truth. I hope even if my life dependent on it couldn't do it. I'm sure there's an India river.

Hansi quick down. Hansi you have this one. Okay. River. River.

River. Right. Pretty sure. You're so close.

“Sea Smart declared that this river, which is the longest in India, is the most”

polluted waterway in the world. Phil, are you picking up any sound when I do this? He's resting. I know. Would you like to be creating sound?

Do you try to do it? No. I don't want to disturb the listener. You can continue. Are you sleepy, Randall?

Get in sleepy. It's warm in here. I had to take off my layer because the back of my shirt is soaked in sweat. What's you sure? I can't tell what's going on there.

It's a squirrel. So high old back country hunters and anglers? Yeah. The state of Ohio and a squirrel track. The squirrel is holding a corn.

Oh, it's, I would have figured that was a Bucca. Yeah. That would have been good. I don't know the thing. I don't think no.

The things are poised. Is it something? Anything eat those? Yeah. I don't want to eat them.

Maybe not for squirrel. Again, we're on question three.

“Sea Smart declared that this river, which is the longest in India, is the most polluted”

waterway in the, about the answer. Talking about rivers, maybe in the middle. What do you got? I've worse. I've worse.

Everybody ready to be. I feel like I want to show you a documentary on this movie. I don't know. This river. Yeah, on this.

I'm not going to have a word. I like to go ahead and reveal your answers. Hondes says, Ganges. Yondes without an answer. Seth without an answer.

Randes says, Ganges River. Corey says, you fray these, max without an answer. Brody says, the Ganges, the Ganges River is correct. The Ganges is 1500 miles long, making it about the same length as the Colorado River.

Its largest source of pollution is 3 billion liters of untreated sewage that flow into

the river each day. Sweet. Other sources include industrial waste, agriculture runoff, and the cultural practice of placing cremated and uncremated corpses in the river. You see a little conservation story.

I don't think the cremated corpses are the problem. No, that if you've seen the river monsters episode, of course I've seen the river monsters episode. Where he chums for the big catfish with burned, that's flesh. They fish your burial, that's happening.

And there's actually catfish living in this body of water. Big catfish. 600 pounders. Oh. Big catfish.

That's the episode on the tarp in episode. You can go do that one with Mark. But the India, you want to come on that one? The bank robbers were set and I just fish for catfish over the world. Question four, the top and waste company resources outdoors.

This next great question is via Chris Orpert, Gorp, a popular snack that usually goes by a different name stands for quote, "good old blank and blank." No, we do this. I didn't. Right.

A popular snack that usually goes by a different name stands for good old blank and blank.

Fascinating. Oh. That's a good question. Okay. How do you have this one right?

Oh, I got it right for sure. Randy, you have this one right.

“How do you get a little space heater in here and then we can do a topless episode.”

- Just the boys, of course. - What do you guys think about that? - Sure, top skins. - I like it. - Top of Top of Top of Top of Top of Top of Top of Top of Top of Top of Top of Top of Top.

Does his seat feel heated? - Whoa. - Oh yeah.

- I got a diameter down there.

- I got a ladder. - I thought I was just having a medical episode. - Gorp. - A popular snack that usually goes by a different name. - A stand for good, old, blank, and blank.

- A snack. - I know it. - Oh, come on, man. - Yeah, seriously. - You got this.

- You got it. - I do not a gorp. - I don't know how to gorp my life. - Oh really? - Yeah.

- You've eaten. - You had some. - Let me tell you. - Not for that. - Do you have this one, right, Corey?

- I don't know. - Okay. - Wow, this is true.

“- I feel like it is kind of a 70s, 80s kind of.”

- Whoa. - You can talk about that in the flip, but it took around 90s. - Good old. - I got a good old.

- I got a good answer, but it's not right.

- Gorp, a popular snack that usually goes by a different name. stands for good old, blank, and blank. - You know what, Hansi? - He was quick to answer. Max, well, do you give up?

- No, I got a answer. - Oh, okay, Corey, good. How about you, do you give up? - Sure, if we got a hurry up. - We don't have power, we have to surprise you.

- You got no beat up sandwich bag of this stuff and a bottom one in your pack. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Hansi says, "Rason's peanuts, "yannas, raisins, peanuts, Seth without an answer.

"Randy, raisins and peanuts, Corey without an answer." (laughing) Max says, "Rice and Boston." You know what I had, "Rice and Boston"? Brody says, "Rason's and Venus."

The correct answer is good old, raisins and peanuts. - There is a thing called "Rice and Roni," where they put those two things together. - Right, Max wins the creative answer as well. - Every time.

- Some say, "Gorp stands for good old raisins and peanuts,

“"while others claim it means granola, oats, raisins and peanuts."”

It was popularized in 1906 when Horace Kephart, wrote in his book called "Camping and Woodcraft," quote, "a handful of each of shell nuts and raisins "with sweet chocolate, will carry a man "far on the trail or when he has lost it."

- It's very quiet. - It wasn't until 1968 when the name trail mix was born, which was patented by harmony foods. - Mixed some little marshmallows in there. - If you have kids, the peanuts and raisins

are the things that stay in the bag. - Yeah. - The Eminem's time-outs go, they eat the good ones. - Chocolate chips. - Yeah, and they leave the raisins and peanuts.

- Here's the question. - Here's the question, but good old raisins. - Good old raisins and marshmallows. - You'll get covered with raisins. - Just saying weird things now.

- Question five, the topic is fishing. What kind of fish is a he? - It's A, H, I. - What kind of fish is the other night? - It's a family night.

- Oh, okay, well there's a hint from Brody. - Pretty solid hint, Brody. - What kind of fish is-- - This is what he's talking about. - Randall's probably real mad at me now.

- I don't really care. - For how specific you need to be, you would say a labrador. You don't need to say a black lab for this. - Wow.

- So you wouldn't say dog. You wouldn't say black lab. You would just say lab. What kind of fish is A, H? - Might be your day today, Max.

You might take it all. - Go ahead and reveal your answers. - Tuna, tuna, tuna, tuna, tuna. The whole room says tuna. The whole room got it right.

The correct answer is tuna. - I made an A, he's salad sandwich. This weekend I was telling Cory about earlier. - Yeah, yeah. - To tell the rest of the class.

- A lot of mayonnaise, a lot of pickles. - Okay. - Oh, the pickle little A, he out of the packet. - Mm-hmm. - What kind of pickles?

- Bread and butter. - Oh. - Ah, he which means fire is a Hawaiian word for tuna. The name honors the speed at which tuna moves, causing your fishing line to burn.

Ah, he refers to two types of tuna, yellow fin and big eye. Cool. - All right, we're halfway through the game at trivia fill. Give us a scoreboard update. - We'd love to.

- Everyone's on the board. - They're Cory, Max, and Seth have two points. - Oh, hazy, and Janice have three points. Randall has four points and with a perfect game. - Wow.

- Bernie Henderson, that's five points. - I thought you were doing way better than that. - A little bit disappointed. - It's allowed two points that Max has. - He's not mad, he's disappointed.

- Yeah, no, I'm happy. This is a great game for me. - Welcome to Meet Eater's 12 and 26, presented by Multi-Mobile and on-X maps. 12 of Meet Eater's biggest and baddest hunts

These are long-form episodes, so you get more of what you love.

“The first one up is my baited bear hunt in Manitoba.”

If you've ever wondered what a baited bear hunt is like, you'll love this episode. My favorite part was watching a younger bear spend an hour trying to figure out how to get a creatively hung beaver carcass down from a tree.

Check it out now on Meet Eater's YouTube channel and be on the lookout for more 12 and 26 in the coming months. - Question six, the topic is woodsmanship and this next great question is via Zach Brown. I don't think it's that Zach Brown.

This six letter word, which is sometimes spelled with an E that has an acute accent mark above it. I'm just doing that for our listening audience. Is defined as, quote, "a gully valley or ravine "that is usually dry and was cut by water."

This was a six letter word, which is sometimes spelled with an E that has an acute accent mark above it. Is defined as, quote, "a gully valley or ravine "that is usually dry and was cut by water." - Randall, very quick to answer.

- I was before 'em. - Oh, where are you? - Yeah. - You have this one right as well. - No, you worked. - He's so wise. - We're gonna check the cameras.

- I thought I was. - No, you worked.

“- To be honest, I didn't notice when you saw him just,”

- You're just-- - I'm not kidding, I'm just kidding. - Again, it's an E that has an acute accent mark. - Yeah, I spelled it differently though. - Six letter word, which is sometimes spelled with an E that has an acute accent mark.

Is defined as a gully valley or ravine that is usually dry and was cut by water. - Where's this background from? - I don't think he told me that. - No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

- I know a Zach Brown in Kansas could have been him. - Could have been that Zach Brown. - I was chatting with the Chelsea. Actually, I was put her name into my phone. I was like Chelsea would two ease.

She said, well, someone would say with three. - Oh, that's like yeah, that's pretty slick. - Pretty quick, huh? - Pretty quick, huh? (laughing) - That's good.

- Six letter word, sometimes spelled with an E that has the acute accent mark. - And the letters.

“- It's defined as a gully valley or ravine”

that is usually dry and was cut by water. - Is everybody ready to go? - Ready you have it? - Got six letters that makes sense. - Go ahead and reveal your answers.

Hansie without an answer. - There's another one. - Janice and Seth and Randy say, "Kooley," Corey says, "Drainage." - Drainage.

- And Brody say, "Kooley." They got it. The correct answer is "Kooley." - You know what I'm saying? - I couldn't get a word out of my head

and that was not the right word.

- "Kooley" was first used to describe landscapes

by French bird trappers in the early 1800s. According to word trends, "Kooley" was most popular in the 1920s. The lost favor in the 1980s, but has been rising in use since 2010.

Bill has a graph showing us how frequently word "Kooley" is used in books by year. - Wow. - So, it's glory days again. We're like 1900 to 1930, but now in 2019,

it's on the rise. - Up tick. - Has been used this much since so say 1940. - Come and back. - That word stands as huge 25.

- You could be a cool kid out there saying "Kooley." - Cool. - "Kooley" is an arroyo, the same thing. - An arroyo is the same thing, but I think that's a Spanish word,

and it does not have the acute accent mark, like the word cliche or saute, cafe, fiancee. - Wow, look at the big one. - You're right now. - Yep, right now.

- I had to look them up in case the room was very confused. - Yeah. - And I could offer some of those to you guys, but you did well without it. - All right, here's question seven,

the topic is public lands. This next great question is via Guy Wallace. This national park has the same name, as the nickname for the football stadiums of Clemson University and Louisiana State University.

- What? - Brody, who has a perfect game, locked in his answer quick as well as Randall. - This national park has the same name as the nickname for the football stadiums of Clemson and LSU.

- Good old Clemson. - I had a very good friend that went there. - Max, do you have this one, right? It's a guess. This national park, you see your guess?

- It's the same name as the nickname. - Guess again for the football stadiums of Clemson University and Louisiana State University.

- What was your first guess?

- This wrong, so you fell off. - Big Cypress?

- I think you're on to something there.

- That's Florida. Nobody has joined Randall and Brody with answers. Besides Max, who's on to 2.0, answer this national park has the same name as the nickname for the football stadiums of Clemson and LSU.

This is a question. - We need to ask Steven, the honest action figures for the Clemson or for the K&M thing. - That would be cool. - Should have a deer in the back as well.

- I think it's played for every player. We need to ask him. - So we can jump it across from one side to the other. - Cross the cool one. - Good work, Max.

- Maybe. - I think I saw what you're writing and I think it's correct. - Really? - Oh, no, but good try.

- That should also be the name of a stadium though. - Let's see.

“- Corey, do you agree or disagree with Max's answer?”

- I disagree, 'cause it's different to mine. - Okay. - Cionus, Seth, Monty.

- Vintage Willie Nelson sweatshirt on that I always wanted.

(laughing) - Those were on the free table forever, anybody could have had one. - Willie Nelson, that was definitely. - I've got one, but I can't wait.

- Who's exposed to being a good? - Well, I can't, you were black with that. - My dog hair, my dog hair problem that I have. - Yellow dogs. - Yani and I were recently together

and I lent rolled my shirt and it was like you saw an alien. - Huh, it was very foreign to him. And then he was talking to Corey about it. - Like, rolling or you lent rolling.

- I was lent rolling, sure. And then he was talking to Corey on the phone and Corey says, "Yeah, I've seen guys do that with duct tape before it." - Oh, yeah, but duct tape and set out on your hands. (laughing)

- You have it. - Look at, I do. - Look, there's like $1.50. - Yeah, I have one of them. - Tripper duct tape.

- You wanna go, pretty cheap.

- And more useful. - Except, you've had a lot of snow answerers. - Yeah. (laughing) - Should be like minus one. - He probably was nowhere.

- This national park is the same name as the nickname for the football stadiums of France. - This is going on in LSU, do you guys give up? - Yeah, I guess that brings me a bit.

“- All right, something's going on, what's going on?”

- It's a national park. I'll tell you that. - Y'all, there are 63 national parks. - It looks sad, I'll take one. - I'm just really uncomfortable right now.

(laughing) - You see he, I'm sure he'll be all the way up. - Go ahead, I know what it is. - Hansi says, Smokey. Y'all and it says, "Mameth," says Yellowstone.

Randy says Death Valley. Corey says Olympic. Max says Everglades. Brody says Death Valley. The correct answer is Death Valley.

- I know Happy Valley. Clemson calls their stadium Death Valley because of a nearby cemetery. In honor of the name, they have a graveyard at their practice field

that places a tombstone for every victory over a top 25 team. LSU calls their stadium Death Valley for its reputation as a hostile place to play with the capacity of 102,000 people.

It's the seventh largest stadium in the world. - Shout out to your girl. I think five of those top seven biggest stadiums are in college football. - Shout out to your marches.

- Question eight, the topic is Geer. - Shout out to Andrew Wittworth.

“- This brand whose logo features a lizard”

is best known for their line of Z-strap sandals. - So be it. - Let's go. - So be yourself. - I've got these on right now.

Just kinda do. - Oh, okay. - Let's say those don't breathe very well, no. - This brand whose logo features a lizard is best known for their line of Z-strap sandals.

- I know a guy who has a so-be lizard tattoo. - Well, why on earth does he know that? (laughing) I feel like I know that guy without knowing anything else. - He probably do.

- About it. - I tell you more about him later. - Shout out to you. - People call these Jesus sandals too, don't they? - I have a difference.

- No. - I wouldn't reef like a bird. - Birken sauce. - Birken sauce. (laughing)

- I don't like the answer, isn't it? - I think the answer really. - I would refer to as a Birken stock as a Jesus sandalow. - Yes.

- Max, a big supporter of Birken stocks. - Yeah. - I like Birken stocks. - I like him too. Me and Max are jeans with Birken stocks, guys.

Do you roll your jeans? - You wear a clothes toe or just a standard. - Just open the Jesus sandals. - Claws. - So does Max.

I noticed Max does it. Only actually pretty hip guys. So Lord Bords. (laughing) - That's even better.

(laughing) - Like that. - This brand, whose logo features a lizard, is best known as their line of Z strap sandals. - Six out of five.

- Now we have the, - Shut up, Toby. - Student becomes the teacher over here. - I like it. - Brody is asked Max.

- I don't like it.

- Brody's flailing around here.

- I don't see his back. - That's what I like. - Remind you that.

“Brody has a perfect game going into this.”

- Yeah. - Oh, I know it. - The answer? - Yeah, I don't see it. - Yeah, I don't see it.

- Go ahead and reveal your answers. - Hanzi and Yannis and Seth and Randy and Cori and Max. Say Chaco, Brody says Tiva. - Back to zero, Brody. - The correct answer is Chaco.

- Brody wants to go back to zero. - Chaco, Tamara of my Chaco saddle lizard. - And Brody wants to out. - 20 years ago. - But Z strap.

- Tiva makes it very, very similar sandals.

- I wouldn't shame him for saying Tiva.

- No, it's Tiva. - Characteristically is not GZ shaped. It's straight too and then one connector along the outside of the cartels we know. - Outside magazine held a sandal battle in 2022.

The hand had fans vote on their favorite footwear. Chaco was fittingly the number one seed and dominated the tournament. They defeated other notable brands such as Tiva, keen and crocks on their way to being named

the best sandals for the outdoors. - They're so comfortable. Max has diagrammed the Z strap versus the Vax. - That's the thing. - They also have a little toe diatry.

“Remember the toe loop and some people were all about the toe loop”

and somewhere where you a toe looper, I know toe looper. - I'm a toe looper. - I usually had them but yeah it seemed like that toe loop which is slowly and slowly constricted.

- You guys like Aqua Sox? - No. - But we still like it and I'm so aware of those things. - I love Aqua Sox. - Yeah, they were in Aqua Sox over there

with stocking footwaters. - No, just Aqua Sox. - No, they have their place and messing around on the beach in North Carolina, not the ocean beach but in the sound. You could step on a lot of oysters and clamshells and stuff.

- As Corey said, it's illegal to be a fishing guide if you don't have Chaco's on. - One of these to come on a clacka. - All right, we have two questions here. Give us a scoreboard update.

- Here we are after question days. - Oh, oh, oh. - Corey Colkins, this is in last place. - Take it up the rear. - Three points.

Max has four along with Seth and Hansi. - Oh, well, good job boys.

“- The three players left in the game here are Janus Patelis”

with five points and now tied up. Now that Brody's lost his perfect game, our Randall Williams and Brody Henderson with seven points of peace. - Two questions to give more fashion questions, please. - Question nine, the topic is foraging.

This amendment, which created prohibition, caused FBI agents to chop down Apple trees across the country. This amendment, which created prohibition, caused FBI agents to chop down Apple trees across the country.

Randall very hesitantly put his whiteboard down. He likes his answer, but doesn't love it. Am I reading that right? - I'm pretty sure, okay, pretty sure. - When you said foraging, this is not what I was expecting.

So I sort of went into this question. - Seth, how he, how he cared foraging. I will tell you in the flavor text, why this is so relevant. This amendment, in which prohibition caused FBI agents

to chop down Apple trees across the country. Is this why Johnny Applesy went nuts? - I don't think he went nuts, dude. - Oh, he wish, he was big and Ohio though. - He was kind of like, he went to a little range.

- He went a little too hard, I think. - Yeah. - I don't know. - This amendment, which created prohibition, caused FBI agents to chop down Apple trees

across the country. Brody, is there a chance you have this one, right? - I mean, I know how many amendments there are, and I know where it would fall in a certain timeline, but no, I don't know.

- I'm not in the yard of this, he's saying. - I'm gonna just make 'em up. - Quite a few.

- No, I'm second guessing myself, huh?

- Oh, this amendment, which created prohibition, caused FBI agents to chop down Apple trees across the country. - I don't think so. - I feel like I'm gonna think. - Yeah.

- That's so funny, Corey. - No, we'll find out, okay. - Did you guys maybe have any answer that has a number greater than how many amendments there are?

- No, okay. - Hopefully not. - Is everybody ready? - I don't remember, all right. - Hanzi?

- Okay. - We're gonna let Hanzi come up with this number before we flip over the whiteboard. See if Randall can take the lead. - After this one.

- Just trying to get some air flow on my back at this point. - You're not gonna write down a number? - No, I'm out of the game. - Oh, wow.

- You're ready? - Hanzi ready?

“- No, the lower number amendments are deeper.”

- Go ahead and reveal your answers.

- Hanzi says 20 it. Yannis without an answer. Seth says 14, Randi says 21. Corey says 19. - Exactly.

- Seth says eight, Brody says 19. - The correct answer is eight. - Is the 18th amendment? - Oh! - No one got that one right.

- The top one. - Corey was right there though, so we wrote it. - Oh, wasn't he? - It wasn't 21st repealing that appealed prohibition. (screaming)

- According to this Smithsonian, the government targeted trees that produced sour apples, which were commonly used to make hard cider. This caused a decline in America's apple diversity

with whole orchards being lost to axes and fires. Hard cider is making a strong comeback though, with data showing it's the fastest growing

alcoholic beverage in the country.

So, Yannis, the way that relates to forging is we lost all sorts of apple diversity, diversity thanks to prohibition. Here's a correct answer, review.

“So far, one was Chuck roast two, top not three,”

the Ganges River four, good old raisins and peanuts five. Ah, he means tuna. Six was Kooley seven, death valley, eight, Chaco, nine, 18th amendment. Phil, let's do one more scoreboard update before question 10.

- With that zero percentor, things are in a similar standing. - Similar meeting, exactly, say it actually. - So, we've got Randall and Brody with seven points. - There's the only two players left. - That was my change.

- Running. - Here is question 10, the topic is conservation workload. Often referred to as a botanical garden, this nine letter word is defined as, quote, a place where trees and shrubs are cultivated

for scientific purposes. Often referred to as a botanical garden, this nine letter word is defined as, a place where trees and shrubs are cultivated for scientific purposes.

- It's such a good answer, and I'm 10. - Hmm, I'm gonna leave it. (audience laughing) - If you just spell the wrong, no. - No, okay.

- Yeah. - That was my answer to. - For that last question, for anyone who lives in Sioux Falls, South Dakota,

“they have a bar called the 18th Amendment,”

but they got that one right. Often referred to as a botanical garden, this nine letter word is defined as, a place where trees and shrubs are cultivated for scientific purposes.

Brody and Randall both struggling to come up with an answer. - Well, we have one of these in town. I just drove by it the other day. - I didn't know that we had it.

- Okay. - Thank you, we should stop by that. - That could be a 0% or the second question in a row. - How do you spell that? - Often referred to as a botanical garden,

this nine letter word is defined as a place where trees and shrubs are cultivated for scientific purposes. Seth, do you have this one right? - I think so. - Okay.

- Seth, the only player with-- I must know the right, but it came out the nine. - If a Randall or Brody could get this right, they will be the winner. Cori and Max disagree about the nine letter word though.

- I don't think it's a word. - Hey. (laughs) - Okay. Max has accused Cori of creating a word.

- I've never used that word.

- It's not real. - Same. - Still now. (laughs) According, there excuse me.

Often referred to as a botanical garden, this nine letter word is defined as a place where trees and shrubs are cultivated for scientific purposes. - I do, but I don't think I felt right.

- Randi, do you have an answer? - I don't want to say anything 'cause I don't sound dumber than I am. - Maybe I shouldn't answer. - I see it.

- Do you agree with it? - No, it's not like I don't know. - No, Seth has shrugged his shoulders. - I don't, I'm not going to come up. - Okay.

What is given up on this one? - We'll give her open for Randi. - I don't even know. - They both get her wrong. - We'll call everybody.

- Just over time. (laughs) - Well, no, by the way, if you don't put that. (laughs) - You know, I had that written down.

- Woo! - Okay. - I mean, that's like nine. - How are you smelling? - No, that's not.

(laughs) - No. - You see it's special. - I had a petition of that. - Randi, are you ready?

- One. - You know, I don't like my answer at all. I might just delete it. - Yeah, I'm just saying he drove by one of these in town. I'm not aware of it either.

You'll have to say it. - My answer is not something you could, I don't technically could drive by it, I guess. (laughs) - Yeah, yeah, let's go.

- Condi says, "Are the readam?"

- Yeah. - Seth and Rary got it. - Seth says, "Are the readam?"

“Randi, without an answer, Corey says, "Nurserium."”

Max says, "Planetary Brody" says, "Torrarium, the correct answer is Arboretum." - Yeah. - Seth and Hansi. - Nice job, Matt.

- Good job. - Good job. Arboretums can be indoors or outdoors and there are sometimes both these places are considered living museums

and often harbor endangered species that need protecting the national trust for historic preservation. It says, "America's five or five best Arboretums are as follows, Harvard University in Connecticut,

have referred college in Philadelphia,

the U.S. National Arboretum in Washington, D.C.,

the Lion Arboretum at the University of Hawaii and the Mortum Arboretum in Chicago." - This is the five best. - I was just saying of the movie "Bio Dome." - Yeah, that's a hard question.

- All right, with Randall and Brody getting that wrong, we are going to overtime. One of the drop fill, "Tie Breaker." (whooshing) Very excited.

(whooshing) - The tie breaking topic is gear. This will be a numerical question whoever is closest to the correct answer between Randall and Brody will be declared the winner.

But the rest of the room is also going to play along because if somebody gets it right on the nose, we will add an extra $100 donation to the end of the game. What is the average cost to exchange a 20 pound propane tank?

- Mm, as of when? - As of a week ago, when I wrote this, I priced checked, let's see here, I did six different stores in six different states to get this answer.

I checked very popular places where you would go to exchange a 20 pound propane tank. - So what do you want to, what's it like? - Yes, go to two decimal points. So $1.99, what your answer should look like.

“What is the average cost to exchange a 20 pound propane tank?”

The places I priced checked are in ACE in Montana, Home Depot in Florida, Lowe's in Arizona, Walmart in New Hampshire, Progurin, Kentucky, and a bomb gars in Iowa. - A little bit of a place.

- A little bit of a place, good research. - Very accurate. - I like that. - But now you can just walk up with your empty one and stick it into the box and pull out

a fresh one on the talk to nobody outside. Pretty slick. - Go ahead and reveal your answer. Hansi says, "1999." Yannis, 1976, set 2775.

Corey, 2575, Max, 1899 in our two players' life. Brody says, "2499." Randy says, "1799." - Yeah. - Big difference.

- Phil, can you help me out? - I'm not a good at math either.

So, you have to give me a second.

- So we're right on your phone. - It is a red one. - It is between Brody and Randall, very close to their two. - Well, things Randall should be the one using the calculator.

- Well, I'm not gonna tell you that, guys. - Yeah, Phil, do you have the figure down? - I just open my apps. - Oh, this is fun. - Okay, but we've done this before.

- Let's go ahead and do the math for us to see who is closer. - Oh, I don't deserve it. - What was your, what was your Randall? - The 1799. - 1799.

- 1799 versus 2499.

“I think the answer is, or the correct answer,”

is closest to Brody, is that right? - No, what's the answer? - No, what was yours, Brody? - 2499. - It is, no, Brody Anderson.

- No, it is. - It is the winner. - The correct answer was 2177, just barely. - So Brody was $3.20 and $22.00. - Yeah.

- And Randall was helpful. - I wanna say it was 378. - Yeah, it was 377. - Wow. - Very close.

2177. The cheapest was at a Walmart in New Hampshire and Bomb Gars in Iowa at under $20, while the most expensive was the Ace Hardware in Montana and Home Depot in Florida at over $23.00. All right, Brody, as the winner,

you get to choose with a $500 donation goes. What's it gonna be? - Man, I wasn't really thinking about it. Where's that trophy board? We not have it in here on the board.

- It's all the way upstairs. - And my office. - Who should we donate to? I'll take suggestions. - And that's well, who should we invite?

- Turgies for tomorrow as well. - Yeah, something with Turgies. - There you go. - Turgies for tomorrow. - Turgies for tomorrow.

- Turgies for tomorrow.

- That's what I'm going to do.
