You're listening to an Airwave Media podcast. Hello, Mega Y and Mega Hertz, Megastars. Welcome to Good Job, Brain, your weekly quiz show and Opi trivia podcast. This is episode 165. And, of course, I'm your humble host, Karen, and we are your formation of four forging for formulas and for forest berries.

I'm Colin. I'm Dana. And I'm Chris. Oh, I actually have a bizarre headline. We haven't done a bizarre headline. This is something that might happen a question that might be asked in pub trivia, especially to our

UK listeners. So British electronics manufacturer Alba surveyed 2,000 UK adults about what their favorite feel-good songs were. Okay. What was number one? Feel good song.

Feel good songs? Is this an old song? It is an old song. Oh, yeah. Okay. In late 70s. Late 70s. So I'll tell you what it's not. Hooked on a feel. Is it afternoon delight? I'll tell you what it's not.

The songs did, people did mention, but not the top. Dancing Queen, so Abba. Good Vibrations by Beach Boys. uptown girl by Billy Joel Late 70s British rock band Late 70s British rock band Feel good

No, it's not really Feel good Obviously if they asked America be totally different Yeah Okay too late for the Beatles I don't know I give up

It is Queens Don't stop me now Okay Wow I don't think we were going to guess that Yeah Because we would You know

We associate Queen with Bohemian Rhapsody Or champion We'll rock you. Yeah. But not, I mean, Don't Sondi around was a very good song, but that's not, comes top to mind.

Yeah, it's not the first queen's song. I think of most Americans would think of it. Yeah. So that might show up in your puppetry. Yeah. Yeah. That's number one.

That's the song at the end of Sean of the Dead, right? Yes. Where they've got the fight scene as choreography after the music. Maybe that. That must have brought it back into the popular consciousness. Much like Wayne's World did for Bohician and Rhapsody. Right.

And without further ado, let's jump into our first general trivia segment pop quiz hot shot what I do is I have a random trivial pursuit card here from our giant box and you guys have your barnyard buzzers so buzz in with your answer this one is from trivial pursuit pop culture too okay pop culture too pop culture rum is better here we well I don't know these look hard I'm just skimming them all right uh blue wedge for TV what anchor toned down the intro to the evening news from hi everybody to hello everyone okay this is this isn't a decade or this is a it's just pop culture what toned down and it makes sense oh hello everyone

Checks as well. Checks, yeah. They just gritted. Checks really came to dominate the hollow. Woveen. Yes. The lattice works cereal market. hollow truth.

Yeah. Yeah. What happened to Crispix? I don't know. Well, maybe it was just the shape. Maybe, because, like, Crispix is like a hexagon. It was a weird shape. And checks is square.

Yeah. They have way more flavors, I think, of Checks. Checks mix. They do. The checks mix. Oh, yeah. We got some checks mix for our baby's birthday party. Went over real good.

Yeah. Bold. It was bold checks mixed with Worcestershire sauce. See, that was what Crispix failed to capitalize on was the savory elements. Yeah. All right. It's a real blast from the past. Yeah, this is the first time we mentioned Krispix on a trivia show.

Incorrect. Huh. J.D. Salander. I don't know if anyone call it J.D. Salander of anything. Yeah, so it must be somebody who's really, okay, I mean, geez. Bootsie Collins? You're in that, no, but you're in that mix. I can't even. You might just want to tell us.

Sly stone. Does he call him so... Who calls him the J.D. I think that the Trivial Pursuit card writer... Yeah. I find that upsetting for some reason, because maybe J.D. Salinger is the... Whoever that...

What was that? The sly stone of writing or something like... Some writer must have come up with that and the Trivial Pursuit people... What are they having? Clatched on? That's quite a limb to go out on if you're just writing that...

Yeah, Slicestone's always like, those people are phonies. They're saying, I'll talk about the soches. Yeah. All right, next question. Greenwich for movies. What movie about a fictional form of amnesia reunited the stars of the wedding singer? Oh. Oh.

What Indy 500 winner prepares for each race by chugging a milk, banana, and frosted smoothie he calls the tiger? Oh, we've talked about this before. Oh, yes, really? So the smoothie is made out of milk, banana, and frosted flakes. That sounds delicious. That sounds disgusting. What?

Wait, it's so great. And here chug milk after the race, too, I think. It's gross. Colin Dario Frankeedy Incorrect Here's a hint I kind of don't know

how to pronounce his name Oh that's helpful That might be good It helps narrow the time I know I know Well he's NASCAR I don't know

It is Helio Oh Castro Nevis Yes Okay Yeah he's a big name in Indie car racing The Tiger

Oh okay The tiger It seems like a funny thing to do you to drink a bunch of milk before you go really fast in a car around cordonies. Yeah, that's true. Maybe that makes him go faster. He's like, I'm going to throw up. Go fast.

You go use the potty. All right, good job, brains. I do tend to drive faster when I have to go to the bathroom. So maybe that motivates him. I run faster when I have to go use the bathroom. So today's show is number 165. And every fifth show, dear listeners, you might know that we do we don't have a topic, we don't have a theme.

We just prepare our own quizzes and puzzles, completely random, and it's a grab bag. So today is our All Quiz Bonanza number 33. All right, All Quiz, who wants to go first? Folks, this month, this has been a big, month for Disney fans because Disney's Aladdin was finally released on Blu-ray. Oh my God, really? Has never been released on Blu-ray?

No, this is the big one. This is the, you know, the Diamond Edition or whatever it is. It's got outtakes from Robin Williams. Oh, as he's recording. Doing a lot of impressions of other celebrities, you know, for like for the genie that did not make it into the film. So it's got a bunch of stuff. I wonder which ones didn't make it into the film.

Some obscure references that the kids might not know. I bet. In my memory, it's like there are a lot of impressions in that movie. That I did not get when I was a child. Right. Well, even deeper than that. Yeah, and there was Rodney Dangerfield, which I didn't know when I was kid. I think there's maybe Curley the Stoge, I think, could be in there somewhere, I think.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So anyway, this is nothing to do with that except for this. Aladdin came out in the year 1992 and it won two Oscars that year won for Best Original Score and Best Original Song

for A Whole New World So here is a quiz About the 65th Annual Academy Award It's honoring films released In 1992 That was a good year That was a good year It was a good year

It was a good year The one video tape by had growing up was MTV MTV Video Music Awards 1992. Oh, really? Well. And that had... Well, you might have an advantage in this quiz then, so we'll see how you do it.

Let's see. That's helped us before in the past, that one video you had. Yes, the one video that Karen had of American television, MTV Video Music Awards, 1992. So here is your first question. Barnyard Buzzers at the Ready. Now, I told you that a whole new world, won the Oscar for Best Original Song

There was another song from Aladdin that was nominated for Best Original Song that year. What was it? Oh. You guys get one chance as a group. Was it with the genie? The only one I can't ask me. What is it?

What is it? I bet it's not Prince Ali. It's going to be friend like me. Friend like me. Isn't that a song? And it's not going to be one jump ahead. I think it might be friend like me. I think so.

Because, I remember, because... Karen, sit down. At the Academy Awards, I think I might have this tape as well, because I remember this. At the Academy Awards, they actually had a live performance of Nell Carter as the genie. What? Performing, you know, because they used to have, like, performances of the song. And so, of course, they had the whole new world, which they were on a carpet. But this one was like...

That sounds bananas. I want to see that. Nell Carter as the genie. I hope I'm not making this up. I am all in with whatever Karen wants to vote for. Like Me. That was what I thought it was. There's a lot on the line here. Friend Like Me.

Yeah. It is Friend Like I. Yes. Also nominated for Best Original Song. All right. Now we're going to step it up in difficulty. There was another film that year. Okay.

And it had, it also had two songs nominated for Best Original Song in the year of 1992. Now, I'm not going to hang you guys out to dry in this. Okay. Wow. I will tell you this about this film. All right. Its soundtrack album became the best. The best-selling soundtrack album of all time.

Are we? I mean... Is it the bodyguard, Chris? It is, in fact, the bodyguard. I'm so glad I went through the proper channels. It's too excited. I thought we were helping each of the time. I was just too excited.

Wow. Can you... Yes, best-selling soundtrack album of all time. Now, can you tell me, without falling into the trap, what the two songs were that were nominated for Best Original Song. Well, Karen, I don't know. Well, Best Original song, because, well, you would think the big bodyguard song is actually in Dolly Parton.

That's a cover, right, so that's not it. I will always love it. So it's, man, you know what? That is the pitfall, but you're not going to fall into it. I'm going to admit to you guys something here. What's that? I've never seen this movie. You know, I've never seen it either.

Now I kind of want to see it. It's intent. Like, it is. That's what I hear. Intense. Oh, I read the Wic-I did the Karen thing. I read the Wikipedia. Yeah, and you're like, what?

Sounds like something I would say. Yeah. It's full of intrigue and, like, possible murder. And, you know, like, it's... So I was, like, 12 years old when this came out. I remember not being that impressed with the storytelling, but I liked the song. I liked all the songs. I think I just didn't know what was really going on.

I'll tell you if you guys don't have guesses. Oh, yeah. Okay, alright, okay. Sorry, yeah. It's not I will always love you. No. That was a song written by... Dolly Parton.

Yeah. Yes. Stay in my life. No, no, no, no, no. Oh, my God. Don't you walk away from me. Don't you dare. You're on it.

You're on it. If I don't have you. Yeah, nothing. I have nothing. I have nothing. I have nothing. Yeah. I'm sorry to sing the whole talk.

Don't walk away from me. Yeah. Don't you, dare. If I don't have you. Walk away. Wow. Everything except those crucial three words. And there's one other song.

There is one of their song, you will know it. No, that's waiting to exhale. Yeah. Oh, yeah, Shoup is. Yeah. Is it also sung by Whitney Houston? It is. Yeah, yeah.

I'm every, no. You know, that was on the soundtrack to the bodyguard, but that is not an original. And I don't know. Yeah, right. What is it? Run to you. Oh. Run to you.

Yeah. Wow. I have nothing and Run to you, both nominated for Best Series. She was on fire. Yep. Yeah. Yeah. Man, what was that one other song that got nominated?

It was from the Mombo Kings. Oh, okay. Yeah, yep. So, Al Pacino in this year became the sixth person ever to get nominations for both lead actor and best supporting actor in the same year. Wow. For playing Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade and Ricky Roma. Yes. Name the two films.

Colin and Karen Nguyen. I'll do one. Sent of a woman. Sent of a woman and Glenn Gary, Glenn Rock. Indeed. Yes, yes. A lot of F-bombs in that movie. Yeah, I wasn't allowed to watch that movie.

It's a little too salty. Susan Sarandon, 1992, was nominated for Best Actress for her role in this film based on a true story about a combination of oleic acid and erucic acid. Karen. Lorenzo's Oil. Lorenzo's Oil. Also starring Nick Nolte. Also starring Nick Nolty.

I Want the Truth. You Can't Handle the Truth is from this Best Picture nominee, 1992. Colin. A few good men. A few good men. Yes. That was the easy question. I'm just throwing that one at you.

All right. Again, 1992, very big year. Robert Downey Jr. got nominated for Best Actor for playing this actor. Dana. Charlie Chaplin? Charlie Chaplin. Yes, indeed.

But Best Picture. and best director both went to Mr. C. Eastwood for this film. Colin. That is. Unforgiven. It is unforgiven. Yes. That was Clint Eastwood. Yeah, yes.

They were trying to throw us off with the C. Eastwood. It's a code. Getting tougher. Howard's End. Sent of a woman. Enchanted April. The player.

And a river runs through it. were the nominees for this award Karen Best score No Dana Cinematography No

Colin The reason once again What were the movies Howard's end Yes Cent of a one Yes Enchanted April

The player Okay And a river runs through it I'm gonna guess Adapted screenplay Yes sir Best Adapted screenplay Yep

Oh that makes sense Boy George provided the title tune for this best original screenplay winner. Karen. Crying game. Oh, yes. Of course, good one. And, of course, that was a cover for a previously existing song, was not nominated for a best of a song, et cetera, et cetera.

Nice. Best makeup and best costume design went to this Francis Ford Coppola directed romantic horror film. Colin? Is that Bram Stoker's Dracula? Stoker's Dracula. Quite a year for the cinema. Robin Williams was the star of another 1992 film nominated for Best Art Direction and Best Costume Design. This film also starred Michael Gambin, that's the second Dumbledore from Harry Potter.

It also starred Joan Cusack, and it starred L.L. Quilke. Karen is already buzzed in. Yeah, yeah. Toys. Toys. That's a great. That was a weird movie. That was a weird movie.

Weird, weird movie. Yeah. Oh, that was Michael Gamm did. It was Michael Gammberg. Inspired heavily by the paintings of Magritte. Yeah. I was so excited for that movie because it was about toys. It had Robin Williams from Aladdin.

Yeah. I watched it and I was like, what is this? What is like nothing? This is not anything I'm interested in. However, I think if you were to watch it again, we'd probably. probably like it more at this point. Maybe. Finally, final question.

This is the tough one. If somebody knows it, you win the cookie. Alright, let's see. The winner, the winner of the Best Visual Effects Oscar for 1992. It beat out Alien 3, which came out that year. It beat out Tim Burton's Batman Returns,

which came out that year. The winner of Best Visual Effects was a dark fantasy comedy starring Meryl Streep, Goldie Hawn, and Bruce Willis. Everybody at the same time. Death Becomes her. That was neat. And I must have had this tape because I can play in my head the montage when they go through like,

and the nominated R, and then they do the whole hole in the torso. Right, right. Yeah. Ninety-192. 1992. A memorable year. So now we all know, forget any of the. movies at trivia

192 wow bodyguard being able to time movies in clusters is really helpful yeah okay that's true Aladdin

yeah all right Lorenzo's oil yeah cool so I have a I have a quiz for you guys it's a word quiz another word quiz one of my favorite

so in the English language there are very few four letter three syllable words like very short words, but with lots of talking involved. It takes three syllables to say them out of that. Wait, four letters? Four letters. Unless you're Irish, in which case, there's a lot of them. Yes. But in English. Right. Yes. It's a good thing. It's a good thing I speak English. If you're

Irish and you're speaking English. There are so few of them, in fact. I made a quiz with about them. This is not all of them, but this is almost all of them. All right. Oh, I dig it. Yeah. I can't even think of one. It's like probably over half of them. I trust that Dana will lead us to success. Yes, yes. I'll lead you to success. And I'll give you a hint, even. She'll let eat at us to success. Yeah.

Yeah, that's a, no, it's not. Is that not one of them? No, is that not one of them? No. They often begin with vowels, but not always. Oh, that makes sense. So I'll give you a definition in the word that it is defining is the four-letter three-syllable word. All right.

All right. This is a brand name of a cookie first introduced on March 6th, 19, 12. Everybody. Oreo. Everybody except Karen. I'm sorry. I buzzed and thinking he was Amos and I was like, that's two syllables. Oreo.

Oh, oh. This opens a whole bunch of a library full of words now. The O and O. Yeah. Oh, yeah. How about it's a term for oils and it's commonly used to refer to like a variety of things, including margarine. Colin and Chris. Olio.

Olio. Ollio. Chemical founding urine. Everyone. Urea. Yeah. Exciting. The ninth letter of the Greek alphabet.

Iota. Yes, Iota. A self-contained peace for one voice. Chris. Aria. Aria. An opera by Verdi. Chris.

Aida. Aida. Aida. A region or part of a town. Karen. area area a city in hawaii chris wait um no i don't know ohahua oh wow yeah yeah and two u.s states last one

oh ohio and iowa iowa i was going to do it the other way around yeah that's it that's it holy cow that's there's a few more but they're just like words you would not know at all yeah yeah yeah those were all the common ones wow ohio iowa urea oleo o'i o'i o'i o'i o'erio orio yeah i always i always joke about the the irish speaking english because of course you listen to enough irish music you hear so many extra syllables like you know only like doubling that's in the town like you know fiddler you know becomes a three-syllable thing and the phrases of music i actually heard somebody say that he had just seen a philum

oh i've heard that yeah yeah yeah oh interesting uh i saw somebody online, they were trying to say that ugly and lazy and busy were all three syllables. It must be like ugly. Lazy. I don't know how to you say. I don't know about lazy. Did they not know what a syllable is?

I don't know. A good friend of mine he has a story when he was a kid in elementary school, they were going over syllables in class. And the teacher was like, okay, you know, this is like second grade. Sure. Like really an introduction to

idea. And, you know, they're doing the whole thing like, where, you know, you put your hand below your chin and, you know, I don't know this thing. You're going to have to explain. No, no, no, no, no. No, no. I can tell us. Oh, yeah, okay, so this was like, I remember, like, put your hand right below your chin, and then say a word. So, like, we'll say table, table. Like, the number of times your chin hits your hand, that's how they taught us to think of syllables.

It's not hitting my hand. Right, table. We got to move your hand close enough. Yeah. You got to go a long way. Yeah. So the teacher's asking the class, like, you know, give me some one syllable words. You know, like, cat, you know, house.

And it's like, can you give me some two syllable words? And so Jay, my friend, says, oh, yeah, orange. And the teacher, he's like, hmm, what? Orange. Orange. Orange. I guess you could say that's a two-syllable word. And Jay internally, he's like, what do you mean?

You guess you could. And she said orange, like, orange. Orange. And he's like, no, lady. Like, that's your regional dialect there. Orange. Orange. Orange.

Orange. Yeah. Orange. Orange That was like my Did I ever tell you this story Of my fourth grade teacher She like basically like had a whole chart

Of everybody who did Spelling tests And every time we got 100 on a spelling test She put a little star next to your name And then she said At the end of the year Whoever has the most stars We'll get a silver dollar

And I collected coins I was just like Oh man I know what a silver dollar Is this sweet This is awesome So we get all the way up to the end of the year I have the most stars And she gives me a Susan B. Anthony dollar

And I was just like, this is, this is the worst injustice. It is silver. No, it's, well, it's, it is worth the dollar. It's shiny. It's silver-colored. Right. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. I've been half. This is just a dollar. Is that the only reason why you did well? Yeah. You were like, hustled for that. The only reason, but like, it was definitely a motivating factor for a period of like

eight months through winter break. When I was a kid, I think it was in first. grade and first grade quote science class and uh i think there was a test and the question was like how many legs does a rabbit have and by that time all of the rabbits i've seen are like in cartoons and i was like oh two and they marked it wrong and i went i was like no have you seen all this these are arms right i've never seen a real rabbit before i don't know what they look like he was so angry I was like now I know it's

four but like right right right bugs bunny yeah when it's you grow up Babs bunny my melody you're like she's two arms

He just has white paws, probably. He does. He does. What? No. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, Bugs Bunny's wearing gloves.

I don't believe you. No, those are his paws. No, it's like a band, right? All right, we're going to get to the heart of this one. Bugs Bunny Glove. Oh, yeah, because there's, hang on. Well, how would you vary? It has a ring around it.

There's a scene of him taking his glove off and using it as a glove slap. And here's a picture of him without a glove on. You can see his hand is the same color as his fur. Oh, it's gray. Interesting. But his feet are white, but he's not wearing socks. His feet are just white. Wow, I don't think I've ever noticed that.

If you'll permit me, rabbit hole, going deeper and deeper. This is not for the show, right? I mean, it could be. He does wear gloves, yes. What were we talking about again? I don't even. I mean, it's your turn. All right.

I have a quiz for you guys called. I liked their earlier stuff better. Oh, my God. That sounds like such a you quiz. Oh, Colin quiz. This was inspired, I inspired myself. I did a quiz for you guys. Several, several episodes back where I would name famous director's movies in order of when they were made.

And you tell me when you think you know who the director was, you'd buzz in. Because it would take us a little while to get to the first, like, famous movie made by something that he shot on a super eight in his backyard. Right. Okay, sure. So this is a similar concept. This quiz is geared around famous recording artists, bands and individual singers. I'm going to list for you in chronological order. There are albums that have been released.

When you think you know who it is, when you recognize it, buzz in. Tell me who the recording artist or band is. And putting this one together, I should say, it was a little tricky just in that so many famous bands and artists will have a self-titled album. Or will have their name somewhere in... Especially, like, towards the beginning of their career. Yep. You could have just eliminated those. I thought about doing that, Chris, you know,

but I felt like I would be doing a disservice to you guys. Okay. So I have eliminated any artist that had a self-titled album. Wow. Awesome. But now these are all, I assure you, these are all among the highest selling recording artists of all time. I'm sure you have heard of all these people. So for example, for example here. Get your buzzers ready and I'll start.

Wait. Is it an example or are we getting our buzzers ready? This is an example. Both. Okay. Oh, okay. Okay, sure. So get your buzzer ready. I'll give you an example here to start off.

Yes, this is 0.0, right. So I'll start naming albums. You buzz in when you think you know who the recording artist is. I wonder why it's so hung up on the other, Karen. I guess in Good Job Brain, we have this sort of like competitive example, which is sort of a weird thing. None of us like to lose. I think it's fair to say.

So here, if I were to name the albums, Surf and Safari. Yeah. I didn't think it was going to take too long. The Beach Boys. It is the Beach Boys, yes. Also, they never had a, like, an album called The Beach Boys. The Beach Boys did, in fact, later on. I used them as the example because they would have, like,

Beach Boys Christmas and, you know, things like that. Right, right, right. But all of the other bands I'm giving you here do not have their name, either their name or the band name in their album drive. That must have been, that must have narrowed a lot of. It did narrow a lot. Yeah. I mean, Beatles, right?

Right out. Rolling Stones, right out. Elton John, right out. Flewitt Mac. I mean, just many, yeah, Mariah Carey, can't do it. Even John Denver. Right. These are all studio albums, I should say. So I haven't included, you know, live albums or soundtracks or bootlegs. Right. It's your official studio albums.

All right. Get your buzzers ready. Here we go. First artist. These are this artist's albums. Boy. October. Wait.

Whoa. Is this you two? It is you two. Oh, that's nice. Jeez. Dana, with two. I actually knew after one, and then I did, when he said October, I was like, oh, what's that?

I bet for a lot of these, you guys might know it at one, and then have to wait to clinch it. Right. And then a few more after that. Yeah, boy, October, then war. And then the unforgettable fire. And then I think their biggest breakthrough album, the Joshua Tree. All right.

Next recording artist. Reasonable doubt. My Lifetime, Volume 1. Volume 2. Hard Knock Life. Karen. Jay Z. That is Jay Z. Once you said volume, I was like, ah, that's crazy.

I saw you guys kind of like, uh, uh, uh, oh. Volume and numbers. Yes. Blueprint 1, blueprint 2. Like, there's so many. Volume 2, Hard Knock Life. You probably would have gotten it on the next one for sure. Volume 3, Life and Times of S. Carter.

Oh. Okay. S. Cargo. Next, recording artist. Here are their albums. Recorded, 39 smooth. Hmm.

KERplunk. Chris? Green Day. This is Green Day. Wow. Yeah. The next album after Kruplunk was Duky. Okay.

Without getting arrested Is he serious? Is he serious? No The Naked Gun Only in theaters August 1st All right my turn in the last segment

And on my notes I said This segment is a mystery Yes Is it about mystery or is a miscarriage. You've had this stack of something sitting in front of you this whole entire time. Their cards. I'm like, what is going on?

Okay. Okay. So there is, there is that's what I thought she was going to do. A live tarot reading. Oh, the inverted devil. That's right. No, it's good. It's good. It means opposite of devil. There is a

card game and it's, I mean, loosely card game is just because it's in the form of cards. It's not like, you no magic or anything, but it's a game. And it's called Dark Stories. This is the Real Crime Edition. So, do you guys remember growing up playing lateral thinking puzzles where it's like a storytelling where there's a simple statement and you have to ask, the other people have to ask

yes or no questions to get the full story? So an example would be a man is found dead next to a puddle of water. What happened? And you have to ask yes or no questions. You're like, was he stabbed by an ice cube? Right, right, right, yeah, and that, yes. I mean, these are all kind of passed down. There's really one story, and it can go so many ways,

but usually it's believed to be one answer, and that one is, like, a man hung himself, and he used a big ice cube to get to the road. Right. Okay. Playing those games can take a really long time, and also, like, sometimes they're, like, so outrageous. You're like, how would I get to the back story?

Turns out these people used to be in the army together. You know, it's... It's a little shaggy-dog story. There's so much setting. And what I thought, this is, the premise of this, this card game called Dark Stories, the Real Crime Edition, is it starts with a simple sentence, and then there is a story behind it, but they're not as elaborate. In this case, they're all true.

Okay. They're all based on real murder stories, either ones that are really famous that you know and just got kind of boiled down to a simple statement or something in historical times or something that is just... But it's not that crazy. Okay. So let's play a game of this. It actually happened.

I'm going to give... So just to get the flavor, I'm going to give you a practice one. This one is titled, The Call of Home. Although she spent two years in a dirty hole, she was still smiling when she returned. And so the premise is,

listener, you ask yes or no questions to get to, like, who is she? Why was she in a hole? Why was she smiling? You know, that kind of stuff. Okay. So I'm just going to tell you the answer. Oh, okay.

Okay. The answer is Leonardo da Vinci's most famous painting, the Mona Lisa, was kidnapped and hidden in a hole in a wall for two years. Okay. Okay. So we're, we need to get around the fact that it's not a person. Yeah. And like, is it a person? She'd say no.

Right. And then we're like, okay. So you'd ask for basic questions. So here we go. So let's try. This is very experimental. Okay. Okay.

All right. So I'm going to ask a simple, I'm going to state a simple statement and ask me there's no questions to hopefully unravel the mystery. And these are all real stories. So they might be famous. It might not be. All right. I like this.

Okay. Okay. This card is called the beauty queen. Quote, if I want to be beautiful, someone must suffer was her motto. And she committed several murders. Was the blood part of her? beauty regimen? Yes, it is.

Was this blood coming from an animal? Yes. Or as opposed to what humans? Humans are animals. Was this blood coming from a human? Yes. Okay. The she, is the she a living person?

Like, is the she like a human being person? Yes. Okay, right. Is the she, this countess in Europe? Yes. Yeah. Oh. There was part of vampire lore.

Yeah. But it's a real, it's a real story. It was a real thing. So this woman thought she'd be more beautiful if she used blood of people. To her, it worked, but probably not to anybody else. She's a bad person. The Hungarian countess, Elizabeth Bathory. Of course.

Murder 80 to 650. That's a really big range. But still, I mean, to start with 80 is already a lot. 82, 650 girls and young women in the late 16th and early 650. 17th century. She believed that she could maintain her youth and beauty by drinking and bathing the blood

of her victims. In 1611, as punishment for her misdeeds, she was given a life sentence locked in a tower where she died. Oh, I thought she was going to turn

into a bat and fly away. I remember the story from, I think, Hostel 2. Yeah, I remember reading about this. I'm sure in the course of good job rainery at some point. So I started that

because that was a very well-known kind of thing. All right. Now we kind of get the flavor of things. Okay. Okay. It's called exposing leisure. And the statement is, the murderer's hobby was his undoing. Exposing leisure. Okay. Okay. So I take some kind of a clue from the title of this.

Was the murderer's hobby photography? No. That's kind of like you guys jump in so specific. I'm the same way too. Taking his clothes up. No. But when we say murderer, are we talking about? a human being killing other human beings? Yes. Okay. Did this person kill more than three people?

No. Good question. Did this person kill more than one person? No. Okay. Hobby. Did this murder take place in the last 50 years? Correct.

Yes. Was this hobby physical activity? Did it? What I mean? Sorry. What's not physical? So I would say... Stamp collecting is not a physical activity.

Oh, painting is not. Roller blading is a physical activity. Not a physical activity. Not a physical activity. Not a physical activity. Did the murderer try to make it look like an accident related to the hobby? No. Okay.

Was the murderer's hobby some kind of collecting? No. Was this an outdoor hobby? No. It can be done outdoors, but not really. It's not physical. It's not like bird watching. No.

Okay. Was the hobby an artistic endeavor? No. Was the hobby a game? Yes. Was the hobby chess? No. Was it checkers?

No. Okay. Was it? It's an indoor. game. You could play it outdoors, but generally you could also play it indoors. Was this hobby bowling? No. Is the hobby some kind of card game?

No. Do you play the hobby with balls? No. Are there, like, game pieces of some kind? No. Is the hobby a solo game? Yes. Can you do this hobby purely mentally? No, you cannot.

It's a game. You play it indoors. There's a board or a surface, but no, like, moving pieces. There might not even be a board. You don't have to have a board. You have to have a surface. Do you have the specific surface? Yeah, the surface is a specialty surface. Yes. Okay. Is it billiards? No. No balls. Oh, yeah. You said no balls. Yeah. I mean, it's not like watching

Jeopardy. Is it watching a TV show? No. Okay. Is the material or is the surface made of paper? Yes. Is the hobby a word game? Yes. Oh, is this hobby crossword puzzles? Yes. Okay. Did the murderer? Did the murderer leave like a completed crossword at the scene of the crime? Yes. And did something about his handwriting or the way that the crossword was filled out? You guys got it.

That's exactly. That's basically what happened. Here, let me read the flavor text. In January, 1981, the body of a seven-year-old girl kidnapped in a Hall Noidst. Whoa, it's got super dark. Yeah. Well, I mean, they're all dark. It's called dark stories.

Hall Noidstatt City in Germany was discovered She was found near the railway In an old trunk stuffed with newspapers Several of the newspapers Contained completed crossword puzzles The only tracks left by the offender What followed, interestingly enough,

was the most comprehensive evaluation of manuscripts that the world of criminological investigations had ever seen Under various pretenses 551,000 and 198 signature specimens were collected from residents of the region and compared with those of the case. Wow. The immense effort was a success.

After 10 months, the crossword killer was identified and arrested. Wow. So this guy was smart enough to fill out all these crossword puzzles, but... Not smart enough to not put them all in the suitcase. What year was that? 1981 so there you go but you got to be thinking like who's going to do this I was going to sit here and figure out well yeah I mean right like how would that even be possible how it's possible well yeah they have a team of people they also went to go collect all all the the different

hand writings of the local citizens and it took them 10 months I mean that's still I wonder if that was really the only one that he did oh yeah so there you go a little bit of a lateral dark puzzly lateral thinking. So yeah, I mean, it's not as outlandish as like... The albatross. The one's...

Yeah, I remember the Albatross. Oh, my God. The one if he had seen the sawdust, he wouldn't have killed himself. He hasn't heard of this one? No. Oh, is it the world's shortest guy?

Yes. Oh my God. I can't believe like we know these. It's so just ridiculously tortured. It was like the world's shortest guy. He has the Guinness record and he's the shortest so he like has all these sponsorships or whatever. He has a can't.

He has a can't. that's part of his act and he wakes up on morning and and he and he thinks he's grown because the cane seems shorter but if he had seen the sawdust he would have known that someone had pranked him and I'm like that's that's your first thought is like it's also interesting the variations of her so I heard is he's the world shortest man and the second shortest man is trying to like get the glory achievement so so shaved austin inch from this ruler that he carried all the time to measure himself. It makes me feel better that these ones are based

on real life. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There really is only one potential solution. Exactly. Right, right. Yeah. That's so funny. It actually, you're like, what? There's a lot about the short man. On rainy days, he can go up a higher level of the elevator. Right, right, right. Oh, he gets into the elevator

and he presses this button, but then and then he walks up the stairs, but then, you know, he goes all the way down to the ground floor. Why? That one at least is a little more straightforward kind of time. Yeah. Yeah. The story of a riddle.

That's more of a riddle. That's more of what you could figure this out. There you go. It's called Dark Stories. That's pretty cool. Yeah. And that's our show. Thank you guys for joining me and thank you guys listeners for listening in. Hope you learned a lot about 1992. A glorious year.
