You're listening to an Airwave Media podcast. Hello, muscular musical and or mustache machos, mudskippers, and muffins. This is good job bringing your weekly quiz show and offbeat trivia podcast. Today's show is episode. 115. I don't know if I should say 1.15 or 115. I don't know. 150. I think 150. Sounds bigger.

We'll get out of this awkward stage pretty soon. We're still figuring out. And of course, I'm your humble host, Karen, and we are your orating orchestra of original orangutans. I'm Colin. I'm Dana. I'm Chris. Hey, so what are you guys doing on the July 4th weekend? On July 4th, I'm eating 20 hamburg. Drinking a lot of beer. And then July 5th, you're recovering.

Right, yeah, exactly. July 6th, you are going to the good job brain meetup. Yeah. Where we may also eat and drink more beer. That's right. I don't know if you can do 20 hamburgers, though. It would be expensive. Yeah.

Yes. And the hospital bill is also expensive. So July 6th, we're having a meetup at our usual trivia place, the Soma Street Food Park. There'll be, there are tons of food trucks. We're hanging out on a school bus with our goodies and our trivia. Yeah, we reserved a whole section, and it's for the meetup, so that's going to be pretty cool to have our own space. But, of course, you're welcome to roam around and get food. Yeah, be surrounded by good job brain fans all over, yeah.

Who like knowing stuff and talking about facts. And talk about knowing stuff. And knowing stuff. Lots of correcting each other. I bet there'll be some good Game of Thrones talk. Probably, yep. Yeah, it's got to be a humdinger. Also, we're going to have goodies for everybody who shows up,

so don't forget to please RSVP. You can find the event info on our website, good jobry.com. And also, here's a bitly link to the event bright, which is bit. Dot Lee slash GJBSF meetup, one word lowercase. And RSVP, and that way I know how many people are coming. I can prepare some swag.

Yeah. Some swag. It's going to be cool. It'll be worth your while to show up. Yeah. So we'll see you guys there. I have a bizarre headline. We haven't done a bizarre headline in a while.

Yeah, it's going on a while. I guess nothing that bizarre has happened recently. Most importantly, a listener, Christina Adams wrote us, emailed us, and told us about this tidbit, which is really cool. She said, I just found out that people in Russia and Finland used to put live frogs in their milk to keep. it fresh in the days before refrigerators. What? If this came up like in a game of Balderdash or something, I would say no way. Right, right.

So please explain the science behind frogs and milk. All right. From Discover Magazine, double checking some of the facts. Yep, they used to do this. And it does have a basis in science, good, which is good. Recent research on amphibian skin led by Moscow State University. their organic chemistry team, showed that the skin is loaded with peptides, antimicrobial compounds, that they're potent against salmonella and other bacteria.

Huh. Are they live frogs or live frogs? Live. Because they have to be secreting all the antidefrobeal stuff. And the poop and the... Yeah, and it just keeps the bacteria out of your mouth. Well, listen, we're talking about, yeah. It puts frog bacteria in there.

Right, right, right. You were probably drinking in those days before Britta filters. You were probably drinking a lot of frog poop. on a daily basis anyway. You build up a tolerance. Right, right, right. It was like the salt on a margarine glass. It was like mother's milk at that point.

Yeah. Next time you're in a jam. Wow. The power goes out. Get me a frog. Yep, if you're camping or just whatever. I can't believe frogs like being in milk. Well, I don't think they ask the frog permission.

I don't think so. Hey, frog, do you want to live in my milk jug for a while? Yeah, the frogs don't want it. Signing little tiny frog waivers. Yeah. It's like they don't have fingerprints. It's just a web. All right.

I just want to apologize first. I kind of sound like Rod Stewart today. I'm sorry. Chris and I just came back from a big work event last week, E3, which is the video game big industry convention. So I did a lot of talking. Oh, okay. A lot of talking. A lot of booth babe duty.

Oh, right, right, right. I did a lot of listening. It's good. So your ears are a little hoarse. Yeah, exactly. Well, in addition to E3 going on this past week, I don't think you guys have to be big sports fans to be aware that the World Cup soccer tournament is underway. If you've been anywhere near the internet or a TV or probably another person. Even the Google Doodle is.

That's right. Yeah, that's right. That's right. So started last week. It's, you know, a month-long soccer tournament every four years. I remember those bygone days when Americans were simply blissfully unaware that the World Cup was even a third. thing that was happening. I think, but it's so much easier to watch now.

You watch live streaming, and pretty much all the matches are on. Big, big, big, big, big, big deal. Bigger than the Super Bowl, bigger than the Olympics. Bigger than the Eurovision song contest. It is. Which is pretty big. Yeah, that's, yeah. So it's sort of in the spirit of sports trivia for non-sports fans.

I just wanted to go over very quickly some questions here that I think are very likely to come up at your pub quiz this upcoming week. So we'll frame this yet questions. Take your guys best guess. Okay. These will all be questions about the World Cup soccer tournament. So, one of the smallest South American countries, they were winners of the first World Cup in 1930. Dana.

Is that Uruguay? Yes, yes, Uruguay. Yeah, they were quite a powerhouse, especially back in those days. Yeah, won the first World Cup in 1930. This country has won the most World Cup titles with three. five championships to their name. Karen. Brazil.

It is Brazil, where, in fact, the current World Cup is being hosted as we speak. Last one, here we go. So the World Cup is organized by soccer's world, governing body, FIFA, FI-F-A. There's also FIFA soccer is a video game. I'll tie that again. True. So tell me, please, what does FIFA stand for? Karen.

Federation, International. Football Association That is absolutely correct Yes And in French strictly speaking Yeah, federation International de football association

It's weird that there's a like a federation association Oh yeah Usually you only have one or those Association football Oh association Oh okay So we're soccer

Which is Federation International De Football Association Right right Which is where As we've talked about On the show

Soccer Soccer. A soccer. A soccer. Association football. Yeah. Wow. All right.

So there you go. So you guys three for three on the soccer questions. Not bad. A little bit more housekeeping. I just want to clarify some stuff in our recurring correction segment. Um, actually. Um, actually. What you said just wasn't true.

Um, actually. Do you mind if I correct you? Because actually. actually and quite enthusiastically, I was right, and you were wrong. That's exactly what inspired me to write this um, actually song. You were wrong. This is what happens when we record a lot of episodes at once, and then we can't really address. I'm showing them the man behind the curtain.

I have to admit, sometimes we get too excited and we flub over stuff. So quick three things. First of all, in our how to prep for pub, quiz, part one episode. I had a geography quiz, and I talked about the Australian flag. Australian flag is made of six stars. There's five that make up the Southern Cross pattern, and one is what you call a Commonwealth star.

That's the bonus star. And Commonwealth Star is also known as the Federation Star. A lot of people wrote in saying, from Australia, saying, oh, it's called the Federation Star, not Commonwealth Star. Both are interchangeable. Federation is more within Australia and then Commonwealth more for the Commonwealth. And then I did flub on this.

Not all stars have seven points on the flag. One baby star, the smallest one in the Southern Cross, actually has five points. But all the other star, including the Federation or Commonwealth Star, has seven points, which is very strange. You don't really see a seven point thing anywhere. The other thing is we got a lot of men. and I know Chris preface this. We talked about beer cocktails, different... Beer cocktails.

...nextries of beers calling something else. It does change U.S. to U.K. And then within one place, you know, it's probably not the same. It changes from bar to bar. So a lot of people wrote in, say, snake bite can also be a logger with cider. It can also be a Guinness with cider. Depends on where you are. A lot of that stuff is like old tradition and new tradition.

There's no controlling legal authority. Yeah. I wish there was. That'd be cool. The Beer Cocktail Association. Let's start one. The Federation of the Beer Cocktail. And then one more thing in our How to Prep for a Pug Quiz, Part 2 episode, we also talked

about admitting states into the union. And I kept saying continental and what I really meant is contiguous. Because Alaska technically is in our continent, not contiguous. Whoa, good one. Yeah, so good catch. What an eagle-eared listener. What has really good hearing? Bats?

Bats, yes. Eagle-eyed and bat-eared? Sure. We'll go with that. Sonic. Yes. That's a really... Eagle-eye is really a nice analogy.

Bat-eared is kind of weird. It seems like an insult thing. So that concludes our clarification and actually. You guys are very smart. Yeah, very good for catching all that stuff. Thank you. All right. Well, good show, everybody.

I'll see next week. A lot of stuff. Okay, so today is episode 115, 115, which means it is our all-quiz, bonanza number 23. Every fifth episode, we don't really have a main theme or topic. We just prepare a bunch of quizzes to stump each other and to stump you guys' listeners. So today is our all-quiz bonanza number 23. And without for ado, let's jump into our first general trivia segment, pop quiz, hot shot. You guys have your morning zoo radio buzzers.

Yes, and I have a Trivial Pursuit card. Random from the box, let's start answering some questions. Here we go. Blue Wedge for Geography. What Washington Town had Stephanie Meyer never visited before setting twilight there? Oh, Dana. Forks. Yes.

Forks. Forks. It's a real place. Yeah, I think so. They take people on tours. They're like, that's where the vampires live. And I think it's one of those cities where people are like stealing street signs and stuff now, like hardcore twilight fans. Oh, sure.

Well, maybe not anymore. All right. Pink Wedge for Pop Culture. What is the only Disney animated feature film who's title character does not speak. Whoa. Oh. Oh. Oh, Colin.

Dumbo? Yes. It doesn't talk. All right. Yellow Wedge. What animals does a synophob fear? Basically, what is synophobia? And that's spelled C-Y-N-O-phobia. Oh, interesting.

You can work at it. What animal? Swans? Like Sina? Yeah. I don't know. Chris? Dogs. Dogs.

Sino. Sinos. Because when it's phobia, it's all Greek turns. It's not Canis, which is... Right. The Latin. Right. Sino phobia. Okay.

Purple Wedge. Whoa. What Cirque through Solet show is billed as, quote, the sensual side of the franchise? Chris again. Is this one Zumanity? It is Zumanity. It is Zumanity. Only people, 18 years were

older are allowed to attend. This isn't on a card, but bonus point for telling me which Las Vegas Hotel has humanity. Chris? New York, New York. Correct. Which was the location of our last, our first and last, and most recent. Good job bringing meetup at New York, New York. All right.

Green Wedge for Science. What corporation's informal motto is, don't be evil. Oh, I didn't know all of you guys. Google. Google, Google. Yes. And last question, Orange Wedge. What clothing item from the 1880s sold on eBay for $46,532?

Clothing item from the 1880s? 1880s. And it's not a Hollywood or like something. Well, that's too late to be like Lincoln's half. Yeah, right, yeah. So it's got to be a famous. 1880s. Kind of San Francisco related.

Really? Interesting. It is a pair of jeans. Oh. Is it the first pair of Levi's jeans? Levi Strauss, maker of the original pair, actually bought them back over 100 years later. Oh, right. I remember when that happened.

Yeah. It was like the oldest pair extant. Yeah. Kind of gross. I don't know what you do with it. That's weird. All right. Good job, Brains.

All quiz number 23. Who wants to start? We're finally ready to start the show. Yes, I know. Yeah. We had some FIFA quiz. And we had a couple of questions here. I can start.

All right. I have a leg of... Let's do it. Yeah, okay. Great. This quiz is called No Pressure. And it is themed around pressure. So there is pressure.

It is free association. Yes, so there is pressure. Okay. The titles lie. So, yes, pressure. All right. Yes. I would like you all to buzz in with your Morning Zoo buzzers.

Yeah. When you think you know the answer to these questions. Okay. Well, I guess we should start off with, what is the SI unit for pressure? The metric system. system unit for pressure. It is named after one of the scientists who invented the mechanical calculator. Karen.

Piston? No. That would have been good. The SI unit of pressure, named after one of the scientists who invented the mechanical calculator, is the Pascal. Oh, right. My high school teacher would be very disappointed. Oh, okay. I have heard that.

Well, I'm sure some people out there got it. So close. So if speed is defined as the ratio of distance over time, how is pressure defined as a ratio? Colin. I mean, it's often pounds per square inch. What is the... Weight over area. Not miles per hour.

Oh, I see. I see. Is it mass or weight? No, it's weight. I will tell you it is not weight or mass. Oh, force. It is. Yes.

So pressure is... Force over area. Force over area. Yes. PFA. Pressure is force over area. All right. Got it.

Seventh World Transfer back to everything. I know. Man. Okay. All right. We're moving away from science. This 1984 rush album bears a title, bear's a title similar, but not identical to a 1990s sitcom starring Brett Butler.

Oh. Dana. Think it through. So the, the, The Brett Butler one was Grace Under Fire. It's the title of the 1984 rush album. Probably Grace Under Pressure. Yes, it is.

Yes, yeah. Multi-step question. In the year 2013, this person said that he had paid $4 million for the publishing rights to the Queen David Bowie song Under Pressure. Oh. Wait. Who? Somebody bought what? Just like Michael Jackson bought the publishing rights to the publishing rights to the,

the song book of the Beatles. This person said last year that he paid $4 million for the publishing rights to the Queen David Bowie song to just one song. So let me ask, let me ask, well, let me ask, okay, I mean, so who, who stands to benefit the most? David Bowie? It seems like he would hardly need to buy the, to benefit. Right, right.

Would you like me to simply tell you? Yeah. Yeah, okay. Uh, in 2013, vanilla ice. Oh, why? That he paid, because if you think about it, what he, the way he explained it was, instead of having to pay royalties every time, because, of course, his, his, his, his, old, the only song of which he makes money off of,

except for the ninja rap, um, is Ice Ice Baby. And of course, he has to pay royalty every time. That's so funny. That's so funny. So now this way. Now he has just bought the publishing rights and he won lump sum payment and now he never has to worry about that. That's hilarious.

So you got it, Dan. So it was been alive. If we were at pub trivia, we would have put that down, for sure, exactly. Oh, Ninja, go, ninja, go. Sticking with music, pressure was the first single off this Billy Joel album, which sounds more like the name of a fabric store. Uh-huh. Michaels. Joanne Fabrics.

We didn't insert the fire. You're at the fabric store. The Billy Joel album in question is The Nylon Curtain. Oh, okay. The nylon curtain, yes. That's part of a sexy story. The two measurements of someone's blood pressure are systolic and... Oh, dang, what is it?

Di-d-D? Is it the D? It does. Yeah. Diolic. Cistolic and diastolic. The upper one is the systolic and the lower one is the diastolic. What do those mean?

Well, that's what I am going to ask you next. What is the difference between your systolic blood pressure and your diastolic blood pressure? Note that they measure them not exactly at the same time. Right, right? Yeah. One is resting, right? Or, I don't know. That's as far as I'm going to get on that.

Like, you can be specific with, like, what the difference is. It's like whatever over whatever. Like, your blood pressure is this over this. Right. It's systolic over diastolic. So what is the difference between those two things? One is, like, right at the max of your heartbeat, and one is when it's not beating? Yes. Yes. I don't know how to describe that. So systolic is the blood pressure when your heart beats and sends blood through, and then diastolic is when it's resting, and everything is just sort of hanging out. So on the beats and between the beats.

Right, and you want to know both. You know, you want to know what your blood pressure is when your heart's beating and when it's not. Say it again. Oh, my God. systolic and diastolic when you're watching your medical drama of choice and they say that when the guy flatlines they yell out acystoli a cistoli as in not and cistoli is in heartbeat got it okay okay I know they yell out we're losing him oh they don't I've never heard of them yell at the other acystole is the official scientific doctor term for flatlining got it yeah it's a rough way to start the show yeah I know right Atmospheric pressure is measured with a barometer, and it is measured in inches or millimeters

of what substance. Oh, uh, well, is it... It's not water? Is it mercury? That's what they say, it is mercury. Oh, yes, yeah. Why? I think, I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, is because it's less susceptible

to temperature changes in expanding and contracting. Yeah, sounds about right. I believe that's right. It's most controlled. Yeah. I'll throw a few more hedges in there. Why not? Magic.

Because it moves around. A wizard did it. A wizard did it. If this is wrong, you'll hear about it on the next episode. Finally, if you get this one, feel good about yourselves? This is a tough question. Sidney Poitier and Bobby Darren starred in this 1962 film about a psychiatrist who treats a Nazi sympathizer. Whoa.

That's pretty good. Whoa. That's a good pitch, though. I'm a treat. I kind of want to watch that. Does Bobby Daird sing in it? I don't think so. Yeah.

That might be a weird movie to sing. I don't think I'm able to read about the Nazis. Yeah, I do not. I think I know the name of this. The name of the movie is pressure point. Pressure point. Okay, okay. And that is your pressure quiz.

Okay, lots of pressure. Yeah, there was a lot of pressure. He did want us. I mean, to be fair. He did. All right, I'll go next. I have a quiz for you guys. This was sort of loosely inspired Dana by your

who's Googlier quiz from several episodes back. So what I have done is I've used Google's awesome autocomplete feature to generate a quiz. Okay. Now, if you've used Google, you probably know you start typing something in and the box will drop down with some suggestions for you. It auto completes popular searches for whatever term you're starting to type in. And so one thing to point out is the order that things appear in auto complete is not necessarily correlated with what has the most search results.

So it's what's more tailored to you? It's a little bit of what's more tailored to you, what's more tailored to your region, but it also really does have what's hot, what's trending, you know. So if something skews a lot more popular searches over a given period of time, it might come up ahead of something that has way more results. So just keep that in mind as we go into this quiz. And I did try, I used an anonymized browser, so it's not based on my search results. It will

It will probably skew a little bit American And probably skew a little bit toward the Bay Area And skew a little bit toward June 2014 But I've tried to make it as agnostic as I could otherwise Okay So specifically, I'm going to give you guys first names Common first names And you guys are going to try and guess

Who, what famous name appears highest in the list of auto- Complete. Now, these could be real people, historical figures, people alive today. They could be fictional characters. So keep that in mind. And we will go with a scoring system here. So now, Autocomplete gives you generally 10 results. So you guys, your challenge is to see how high in that list of 10 results can you guys guess your answers.

Wow. And I will be awarding points based on who guesses highest in the list. Will we be awarding prizes? Do we win a free cat? Yeah, you can have one of my cats Oh, sweet Yeah, you can choose which one Yeah, yeah

Five points, if you guess the first result Uh, three points if you guess somewhere down And then one point if you guess lower than somebody else And you'll have to trust me that I'll keep track All right So just as an example, if I were to say Albert, you might guess Einstein

Yeah, or Albert, Albert Finney Camus, Albert Finney, Albert Prince, yeah Are we just saying one person? You'll give me one last name. Okay. In some cases, it may be a last name that's maybe elaborated a little bit. All right. So here we go.

Julia. Who shows up highest on the list of autocomplete results when I type in Julia. Oh, man, I have two in mine. Yeah, well, I'm sure we all do. All right. All right. Answers up. Karen. Oh, I want to change one.

Oh, no. You just looked at ours. You saw. You can't change it up. You saw. Karen says Julia Louis Dreyfus. Oh.

Chris and Dana both say Julia Roberts. Julia Roberts is the number one. Julia Louis Dreyfus number two. Julia Child number three? Julia Child is in the top results. Oh, okay. I was thinking because Veep and, I was

in too trending zone. But you're thinking in the right way, though. Trend does play a big part in it. Yeah, right. Who talks about Julia Roberts anymore? Well, she's in an HBO movie too as well. Oh, really? Yeah.

Well, there we go. All right, so five points to Chris and Dana, and we will give Karen three. Are you just making this up? Yeah. No, there's a system. There's a system. I reserve the right to make up rules. Yeah.

Here we go. Next one. Roger. Roger. Roger All right, answers up Karen says Roger Federer Chris says Roger Sterling

Excellent guess Dana says Roger Federer as well It is in fact Roger Federer is the top head Unfortunately Roger Sterling did not make the top ten Oh no! Roger Rabbit did How Roger Rabbit going to get on the top ten Roger Sterling doesn't even

shirt. Roger Rabbit is a, or who frame Roger Abbot is a very Wikipedia. Right, true. Right. And the dance. If you're looking up how to do the dance. And a lot of listicles lately.

Right. It may also be the name of a drink. Roger Ebert number two. Oh, good one. All right. Stephen. And I'm going to give you the spelling here because this matters. Yeah.

S-T-E-H-E-N. Oh. Stephen. Wow. And this is an all-star list, by the way. I bet. Oh, sure. Yeah.

Karen, furiously. All right, answers up. Karen says Stephen King. Chris says Stephen Colbert. Dana says Stephen King. Stephen Colbert is number two. So Chris takes that one. What about my original one?

No, you were right for changing it. Okay, okay. So actually the first result that comes up is Stephen Curry the pro basketball player because he spells it that way I couldn't control for that but then it's Stephen Colbert

Stephen Hawking Stephen King Stephen Merchant and then Stephen Fry Wow All right so Chris takes that one and you guys get points as well I thought we were in the three through five area It's one three or five

so I thought you were saying there was like She's probably best to just. We're not, you know, we haven't given out prizes yet, and we're probably not going to start. Jennifer. Jennifer. This is another all-star list here. Oh, man.

This is tough. All right. All right. All right. Answers up. Karen says Jennifer Lopez. Chris says Jennifer Lopez. Dana says Jennifer Lopez.

She is third on the list. Anniston. What was up there? Jennifer Lawrence. Lawrence. Lawrence. Jennifer Lawrence. Lots of Jennifer's obviously.

I was thinking, like I was thinking because she's performing with Pipple at the World Cup ceremony. There's the scandal with her boyfriend or something. Yep. Jennifer Lawrence, then Jennifer Aniston, then Jennifer Lopez. All right. All right. Here we go. Next one.

Vince. Now, note, this is not Vincent. So Vincent Price is not on this list. Vince. This is a fourth person. And... Oh, wait, wait, wait. No, no, no.

Nope, nope. No, no, I just... I got the name. Karen has used, like, four times more paper than any of us. I can't even think of a name. Karen, I know there's one Vince you can think of, at least. All right, answers up. Okay, so Karen says...

Oh, that's good. Oh, that's good. See, I think that would be a Vincent. Vincent. I think he goes by Vincent. Yeah. So, Chris says Vaughn, Vince Vaughn. Dana says Lombardi. Vince Lombardi.

Unfortunately, Donofrio not on the list, Taryn. Vince Vaughn is third on the list behind Vince Carter, again, an NBA player. Vince McMahon. Vince McMahon. I thought for sure you get the Vince McMahon. I can't believe he was number one. Who's Vince McMahon? From WWE.

The head of Hared. Yeah. Number one, huh? Wow. Yeah. Oh, I guess somebody shows a fun. Yeah, right. Oh, why who's number one?

Vince Carter. Vince Carter, then Vince McMahon. Then Vince Vaughn. Yep. All right. Is Lombardi on there at all? Lombardi is also on there, yes. So Chris gets higher points for that round for Vince Vaughan.

The Vince of Vince. Yep, yep, screwing me out. All right. Mary. Ooh. Mary. And I will tell you that Virgin Mary is not on the list. Okay, I'll give you that one.

Wow, this is an interesting quiz. I don't know. Okay. Okay. Hey, Karen and Dana both say Mary J. Blyge. Oh. Chris says Mary Tyler Moore. What?

And in honor of all of the Harry Potterishness that is going on this week, I have developed you this quiz, and it is titled Harry Potter and the Wikihole. I went to the Harry Potter Wikia, and then I clicked the random page button, and then I got a piece of trivia off of that page

and then followed that page to another page and I got a piece of trivia and so on and so forth until it was three in the morning. No. So anyway, as you know, as you do, you are a huge Harry Potter nerd, and I imagine that the huge Harry Potter nerds,

Eagle eye. Bravo. That's it. Bravo. Good. There are really many reasons to listen to our podcast. big picture science, it's kind of a challenge to summarize them all, Molly. Okay, here's a reason to listen to our show, Big Picture Science, because you love to be surprised

by science news. We love to be surprised by science news. So, for instance, I learned on our own show that I had been driving around with precious metals in my truck before it was stolen. That was brought up in our show about precious metals and also rare metals, like most of the things in your catalytic converter. I was surprised to learn that we may begin naming heat waves, like we do hurricanes, you know, prepare yourself for heat wave lucifer. I don't think I can prepare myself for that. Look, we like surprising our listeners. We like surprising ourselves by reporting new developments in science. And while asking the big picture questions about why they matter and how they will affect our lives today and in the future.

Well, we can't affect lives in the past, right? No, I guess that's a point. So the podcast is called big picture science and you can hear it wherever you get your podcasts we are the host seth is a scientist i'm a science journalist and we talk to people smarter than us we hope you'll take a listen and we have one last quiz segment for this episode uh colin what'd you would you prepare for us well i'm not sure if he's finished learning how to love yet but uh Elvis is back for the primary reason that he's here which is to uh which is to badly speak sing songs for you guys the electronic lyrical vocalization interface system, our 1980s-era computer voice, who will speak songs in a monotone with no soul whatsoever. So the rub for today's show is the lyrics from all the songs today are

songs that were hits twice, once by either an original artist or as made famous by, and then covered again going on to become a hit as the cover version. Wow. So you will probably know... Hit exception. Yeah, there you go. Hitsception. so you'll probably know most if not all of these but your challenge is to name the song and you need to tell me who are the two singers or groups that had hits with this particular song

all right well all right these will be the opening lines for all of these is the opening lines of all of these songs all right here we go hopefully this one we can warm up here a little bit well these coast girls are hip

I really take those tiles they wear the southern girls With the way they walk, they knock me out when I'm down there. Chris, I believe. Well, this was California Girls, and the first group is The Beach Boys. Katie Perry has a song called California Girls, but I don't think it's the same one. She does. It's not the same song. You have a face on like you know this.

David Lee Roth. Correct. Oh, wow. California Girls, the Beach Boys, David Lee Roth. Yeah, cool. All right, here we go. Next one. Oh, I bet you're wondering how I knew about your plans to make me blue with some other guy you knew before.

Between the two of us guys, you know, I love you more. Chris again. Okay, the song is, heard it through the grapevine. It was first a hit for Marvin Gay, and then it was a hit for the California Raisins. What? It was in fact. Show me where I'm wrong. You can probably guess I was not looking for California Raisins.

Oh, did they actually have a real band? Oh, Temptations. Is it Rod Stewart? Mm, it is Credence Clearwater Revival. Really? Yes, yes. A big hit for them. An 11-minute version.

So this is nothing to do with the raisins. No. This is a Motown hit. It was originally it was a metaphor. The raisins literally, they literally use the grapevine to process information back and forth. Yeah, yeah. Recorded by a few different Motown artists, actually, Gladys Knight and the Pips had a version, but hands down, Marvin Gay's is the biggest hit version. Yeah, yeah. All right, getting a little tricky here for the last couple. Here we go. Next one.

Every time I think of you, I feel a shot right through with a boat of blue. It's no problem of mine, but it's a problem I find, living a life that I can leave behind. Karen Bizarre love triangle Correct First musical act Was New Order Yes The cover that made it famous was

Fronte 100% correct Karen That's right Frontay exclamation point Yes I think they're Without a doubt Their biggest

At least here in the U.S., yes All right Last one Take us home Elvis Elvis will be taking us home At first I was afraid. I was petrified.

I kept thinking I could never live without you by my side. Dana. I will survive Gloria Gaynor. Uh-huh. And you have a lot of options here. Cake, I think, was probably certainly the most recent cover hit of it. Also sung by Diana Ross or Selena had a version of it, several times cover. But I was looking for Gloria Gaynor, the original and Cake, yes.

Which apparently I've read that Gloria Gaynor did. not approve of the cake cover version. I love that cake. Because there's profanity in it and she didn't like that. Oh. Oh. I like the cake version. It's really good. I like songs that do gender role reversal. Yeah. Well, uh, Bizarre Love Triangle had a gender swap too.
