You're listening to an Airwave Media podcast. Hello, pristine, preppy prefects practicing for pedantic perfection. Welcome to Good Job Brain, your weekly quiz show and offbeat trivia podcast. This is episode 240. And of course, I'm your humble host, Karen. and we are your lit, litter of literary little necks. I'm Colin. And I'm Chris. And today we have a special guest.

It doesn't happen very often. So everybody give a warm welcome to Neville Fogarty. Thanks, Karen. Thanks, Colin. Thanks, Chris. You might have heard Neville's name before. That is because Neville is a highly, respected crossword puzzle designer. And he actually made the Good Job Brain, the crossword in our book.

Thanks. That was a lot of fun to write. It has the names of your favorite good job brain personalities hiding in it. So if you go back to Barnes & Noble or wherever it is, that King Goes. Yes, yeah, that's right, King Goes. You'll be able to enjoy that crossword. Well, Neville, how did you get into puzzling? I guess I started solving crosswords about 15 years ago now, back when I was in college. It was my first summer after freshman year, and I had failed to procure a summer job back where I lived. I saw, and so I was having a terrible time trying to find an actual job. So I saw online a posting for a game show that was going to be looking for contestants, a new show called Murder. Griffin's crosswords. And Merv Griffin, the legendary TV personality, the guy who created

Jeopardy, he was a crossword addict. And so he had come up with this idea for a new game show based around Crosswords. And I said, this can be my summer job. I can learn how to solve crossword puzzles and make thousands of dollars by winning on a game show. So I did Crossword Boot Camp for three weeks that summer by solving every puzzle I could find. And my mom is very good. Like, she's been solving puzzles for decades. And so she would teach me all those little three and four letter words that show up all the time and that you only get from practice. And so I treated this like my full-time job and then went and actually tried out for the show, something I know Karen knows a lot about, ended up getting on it.

Although we were the 27th episode that taped, ours was such a good episode that they bumped it to the very front of the season. And we were the first episode aired. And I ended up winning. Oh, my gosh. It was an absolute blast. This whole thing was so, like, wildly improbable that this would pay off in any way, shape. perform. It's such a long shot, such a crapshoot, because

on this show, and it's okay if you haven't seen it, it ran for one season, and it wasn't very well publicized. This was, unfortunately, this was right around when Merv passed away. They had started production. I was going to ask you, yeah. That's right.

This was, I believe, we taped while he was alive, and he passed before it actually here. Oh, gosh. So just threading that needle. But, but, yeah, Yes, the way the show worked was there were five contestants on an episode, and you worked to solve one crossword, one clue at a time. And there were two of the players started, and then three players were introduced as spoilers. And there was sort of the Mario Kart Blue Shell effect in that if the first two players failed to ring in and answer correctly, one of the spoilers could ring in and not only take their place,

but also all of the cash that they had earned to that point. And then that player would have to spoil back in. So what were you? So I started at the front. You do the first round, it's normal. It's just two people buzzing in on a quiz show. And then after that, they introduced the spoilers for round two. And then it sort of trades off back and forth in our episode.

So I spent some time in the back row as a spoiler waiting to get a chance to come back in. And then I regained my podium, and the winner is the person who, at the end of the episode, is in the front with money and has the most money. And so that was me through a combination of study skills, because some things that I had prepped for showed up and not going to lie, a little bit of dumb luck. You always need luck. It doesn't, I mean, in fact, the more skills you are, the more luck comes into play, because everyone is skilled that you're competing against. for sure i just can't believe the story started with oh how'd you get in crosswords well i needed a summer job yeah the game show winning amazing if you don't mind me asking what did the winner get it was mostly cash so you were winning you were amassing cash along the way and i ended up winning uh 3 450

you could also win some side trips along the way they were crossword getaways they were the best kind right unfortunately i didn't end up winning one of those because of the trading of podiums and those prizes went with the podium but i did also win a trip to antiga in the bonus round that was my spring break that year what are these crossword getaways and how do i score one crossword getaways absolutely sounds like a late-mid, like, Nintendo Wii game, you know, that you would come across. You know, it's like, it's a combination of, like, travel and crosswords, yeah. Well, they did make a Wii version of this game show.

And I do have a copy of it. I discovered that in addition to other puzzles on there, they do have the puzzle from my episode, and I found this out while playing it with people. twists and turns twist and turns but yes these days that i i mostly do construction of puzzles including i've been writing cryptics myself for the new yorker and so if you if you caught the cryptic bug then you might try checking those out they come out each sunday online i did not realize that and i will start doing them there you go there's a soft paywall so just get incognito mode ready gotcha and you'll be good to go We need to cut that out.

Well, Neville, what would you say are your strong categories in trivia? What are some of your weak categories? Middle and high school, I would do Geography B and Science Bowl. So I think those are my more academic categories. I also grew up watching a lot of TV. As far as weakness goes, I know that if I were playing pub quiz with y'all, I, too, would be relying on Colin for some sports knowledge. because that's not great for me.

Actually, it's funny because I was going to bring this up because speaking of sports knowledge, I learned something about sports that I found very funny that I wanted to share mostly with Karen, because Karen is probably the one who hasn't heard about this. Colin has probably already heard about this. On September 14th of this month, Wednesday, the Yankees were playing the Red Sox in Fenway Park,

and Yankees' second baseman Glaber Torres did something very interesting because he was at bat. There were two men on base, two outs. He hits it into right field. they attempt to throw home to get the guy coming home, but the throw is not in time. Now, the Red Sox try to throw back to first to get Torres, who's still running to first, but they miss it. And the ball goes all the way way back into right field again. Torres keeps running, and he gets the third base.

He's figured he's going to stop at third, but the third base coach waves him home. Torres, who again had been at bat and the ball is just, you know, being thrown around the stadium at this point, comes. comes back, comes home, it's a tight play at the plate, but he's safe. The reason I heard about this is people started talking about him, and this is called a Little League home run. Bumbling kids. Because it basically defined as a play in which the batter scores with the help of fielding errors by the other team.

So, yeah. A point is a point, man. That's right. No, no, no. It's great for the batter. Yeah, absolutely. Neville, we're going to put your trivia knowledge to the test. So let's jump into our first general trivia segment, pop quiz, hot shot.

Every time it's in my head. You know, we do it in post, right? Of course. Yeah, we don't really speak. Okay, so we're going to do things a little bit differently. So I do have a random trivial pursuit card from the box. And Colin Chris, you have your Barnyard buzzer. Neville is our special guest.

So what we're going to do is we're going to put them in the hot seat. There are six questions on this card. You get to a right of refusal. So you can pass twice. And if you pass, it'll go to Colin and Chris and they can answer the question. How's that? How does that sound? Let's go for it.

Okay, let's go for it. Here we go. Blue Wedge for Geography, Neville. The ancient Roman town of Pompeii was destroyed and preserved by the eruption of which volcano. in 79 C.E. That was Mount Vesuvius. Correct. Yes.

Pink Wedge. The last album to feature the original lineup of Funkadelic has which unappetizing title. Let me read again. The last album to feature the original lineup of Funkadelic has which unappetizing title. At the risk of passing too early, because I, know that the stakes are incredibly high here my knowledge of of george clinton is failing me so i i think i will pass oh colin and chris buzz in oh jean i have no idea smelly socks dana knows for sure yeah yeah yeah yeah yogurt verps you know what you're close that's actually

you're you're in the pfunk sphere yeah right yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah it is maggot brain maggot brain I would at least sample a song or two off of yogurt dropping soon all right Neville, Yellow Edge

how many members are there in the U.S. House of Representatives it's multiple choice I want to see if you know Can I try and earn a pass back by answering pre-multable choice? I'm just making up rules here are there 435 numbers yes you're correct you earned your pass back very well done very nice taking a taking a taking the chance that this true for suit card is not really old

that's that's that's a great good point that's one that's a that's a really good example of one where when you said it karen i was like ooh i don't think i could name it outright but for multiple choice i felt very confident what was the multiple choice yeah yeah yeah 335 435 or 535. I would have definitely guessed 4.35. That's a big range. Uh, good job. Purple Wedge. What is the style of painting that uses opaque watercolors?

What is the style of painting that uses opaque water colors? Hmm. I'm going to hazard a guess here because I know that this is an art word, but that's about as specific as I can be with it. Is it imposto? though. Incorrect. Colin and Chris, you want to take the steel?

Oh, Chris. I know that there might be, I mean, there's obviously more to it than that than choice of materials, but I'm going to say impressionism. Incorrect. Collard. Art history. Yeah, I got it. I'm really making myself here.

Now, is that a gouache? Yes. Whoa. Okay. Go Ake. No, no, it's go. G-O-U. A-C-H-E

gwash as in go-wash your hands you've got opaque watercolors all over them Yes that's great That's really good Mnemonic there Chris Kohler ladies and gentlemen

And then I'll give you all a freebie here You know just since you gave me Since you gave me the platform The Imposto that is a great art word And that's like kind of just like What is it? That's like the buildup The visual kind of texture of paint

You know and a lot of A lot of painters Yeah like almost 3D, yeah. A little bit of a side question. Do you guys play learned league? Yes. Me too. Lernid League is a kind of season-based trivia

game, like it's an online site. You get six questions a day during the weekday. You're also matched with an opponent. And it's really fun. I'm having a pretty hard season. I've been invited and I have not joined because it would be too stressful for me. Call it. No, it just, I know myself. I know

myself and my approach to trivia and I just know that it would be a source of stress i have colin i used to like stew about it all day i'd be like oh this is in the punch bowl i'm going to come up with this and um a couple years ago i said that's not fun let's just always do this in five minutes a day okay all right and like like that has greatly improved my enjoyment of it like i was but then i realize it's like oh even if i miss one by next week i will have forgotten that and i will not feel bad about that yeah yeah yeah yeah All right. That's actually a really good advice, Neville. That is exactly how I have been approaching as I just can see myself stewing. Yeah, I should just give myself a time limit. Well, I'll send you guys invites for next season. Back to pop quiz. Here we go. Next question, Green Wedge.

Alfred Nobel, father of the Nobel Peace Prize, made his fortune with the invention of which powerful tool? Trivia staple. I believe, as Jimmy Chay-Chi Walker would say on Good Times, that would be, I know might. Dino-mite. Correct. All right. Now, last question, orange wedge. Here we go. Linen fabric is made from the fibers of which plant. Is that flax? Yes, it is flax. Wow. Round of applause.

Killing it. Good job, everyone. And I'm glad y'all were there to pick up on my lack of art history knowledge. You know, we say Colin's a sports guy. He's also the fine arts guy. He is. He contains multitudes. Like, I don't know I've said this enough.

Colin is our trivia MVP. Oh, you guys make me blush. You guys remember when trivia prize was they would cover our dinner check? That was the best. That was the best era. Living like kings. The elephant castle. That's right.

Spend like a hundred bucks on dinner and then get it all comped because we won trivia. Bangers and Mash. Right? The food, too. The food was good. It was real food. Elfin Castle food was so good. Yeah.

Okay, this week. So every fifth episode of Good Job Brain, we don't have a theme or a topic. It is our chance in place to bring quizzes that we wrote and share them with each other, try to stump each other and try to stump you guys, listeners. It's our All Quiz Bonanza, number 48. I'll start us off with a quiz that's actually been kicking around in my head for years. I mean, I've talked on the show before. You guys know I have my little, like, heard of the backlog list. I keep of topics and ideas.

This, just for whatever reason, this one just never actually got hammered into final quiz form. So I'm very happy to deliver this to you today. So the roots of this quiz go back several years. My wife and I were talking about Wham, of course, the pop sensation. And it was probably right around the time that George Michael passed away, I'm guessing. And we were talking about how, you know, Wham, I mean, it's a two-person, you know, outfit, right? And millions of records, huge, number one hits. But it's for so many, so many people, it's, oh, George Michael and the other guy, you know, the other guy.

And true. There we go. Andrew Ridgely. That's right. That's right. And to his credit, Andrew Ridgely has a very good outlook and sense of humor about being the other guy. And Wham, he's totally cool with it. He's done very well by himself. He's a producer. I mean, he has all kinds of other things going on. I got me thinking how many very famous household name, million album selling bands, tens of millions of albums sold, you might just only know, one person in the band you know and i mean of course there's you know a lot of big famous front men for various bands and you know it can drop off very quickly past that so uh i put together a quiz about the other guys and that's the name of this quiz is the other guys all of the questions in this quiz will revolve around bands that i've selected from the lists of highest selling bands of all time all right i promise you i promise you you know all of these bands uh but you may not know the names of all the members of these bands.

Cool. I was looking at the list, and maybe no surprise, the Beatles number one. And, you know, it was interesting to me, though, that the Beatles may be one of the only bands on this list,

where for not, you know, necessarily a super music fan, you could very likely name all four members. Pretty likely if you're, especially over a certain age, you could name Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Paul McCartney,

John Lennon. It drops off really fast after that. I have to say, like looking at the list, lists of biggest selling band. So I had hope this might make for a good quiz. So let me give you guys the format here. I'm going to start by naming the members of this band for each question in what I consider, the internet considers to be least famous to most famous. So you're going to jump in lightning round style and you're going to buzz in when you think you know what band I'm talking about,

okay? I will award more points the sooner you jump in. Get your barnyard buzzers. And what should we do for Neville. Does Neville, you have like a bell or just anything, just a stick and a block? Hammer and a wall. Yeah, just anything that can make a sharp. Oh, bad, pat, pat, bye, bye. Oh, great. I love it. That's perfect. I have the buzzer sound saved on my phone. Oh, brilliant. Wow. Even with a little click in there and everything. I will tell you all up front so you're not waiting for it.

with Mac does not appear on this quiz, despite being one of the best-selling bands of all time. Yes, far too easy for Chris Kohler here. So, all right. Hold on. I can name them. There's four of them, right? Oh, oh, Karen. How many?

Oh, Karen. Well, so I'm glad, actually, I'm glad you mentioned that because I should say. So many of the bands on this list here, so we're going to be covering bands that were found in the 60s, 70s, 80s, household name bands. A lot of these bands have been around a very long time. Some of them have been stable. Some of them have had, you know, maybe a revolving door of members. So I am not committing to naming every person who has ever been in every iteration of each band.

But kind of just sort of the highlights, let's say. All of these bands have four or more members. So the police do not appear on here. Nirvana does not appear on here. Wham does not appear on this quiz. Get your buzzers ready. Let it flow. Just feel it.

It's going to come to you. You're going from lesser known to more. known. You got it. Maybe we'll start a little easier here. Adam Clayton. Larry Mullen, Jr. Oh, this sounds familiar.

The Edge. Ah, Neville, first sound I heard. You too. That is indeed. You too. All right. And then, of course, I would have rounded that out with Bono. Here we go.

Moving right along. Next one. John Deacon. Roger Taylor. Chris. This is the who. Oh, I'm sorry, Chris. It is not the who.

I'll continue. Brian May. I. Ah, Neville, again. Queen. That is queen. That is queen. I was thinking of queen.

And then the last name, of course, would have been Freddie Mercury if I were to continue that list. That's right. All right. All right. Here we go. Moving right along. Brian Jones. Bill Wyman

Charlie Watts Keith Richards Oh I think you all buzzed in there at the same time Karen what do you got Rolling Stones Yes that is the Rolling Stones And then I would have rounded out with Mick Jagger So yeah certainly some of these bands

You know have a one and a two maybe It's usually like it's the front man and then the guitar player. That's right, very often. Yep, here we go. Maybe get into some a little more tricky territory here. Robert Trujillo.

Kirk Hammett. Lars Ulrich. Oh, Karen. Metallica. That is Metallica. And then I would have listed James Hetfield next. Another band that certainly has had some members. I was on a plane.

the years. Oh, really? Yeah, he's a recognizable dude out, out in public, for sure. Mm-hmm. Next one, here we go. John Densmore. Robbie Krieger. Ray Manzarek. Jim Morrison. Uh, Karen. The doors. That is the doors. That is the doors. I'll give you one point for getting to, uh, Mr. Mojorizing himself, Jim Morrison. Next one. John Paul Jones. John Bonham. So many Johns. Robert Plant.

Oh, Karen. Pink Floyd. Ooh, I'm sorry. Chris wanted to take a stab. Yes, Led Zeppelin. That is Led Zeppelin. All right. Chris on the board here. All right.

And then I would have rounded out with Jimmy Page. That's right. Jimmy Page, yeah. A band that actually had very stable membership over their time. You know what's really sad? And people, feel free to make fun of me. I'm not ashamed of it. I first knew Jimmy Page.

I didn't grow up with classic rock. I knew Jimmy Page because of a song in the Godzilla movie. It was with with Puff Daddy. It's like, come with me. Yeah, the 90s were a weird time. Yeah, it was a tough Daddy featuring Jimmy Page. I was like, who's this guy? Oh.

Well, that was the point, right? Yeah, you know, introduce it to the new audience. All right. Well, we'll move forward a little bit in history here, maybe Karen, give you a little bit a better chance here. Stephen Adler. Duff McCagan.

Oh, Chris, after two. Guns and Roses. That is. G&R. Guns and Roses. You got it. That's right. There's a reason I know that, but I...

Why? So, my friend in college was a big Guns and Roses fan. He was rushing his fraternity, and then they all get... The fraternity gives them all nicknames. You know what I mean? and they were like, oh, what do you think your name's going to be? He's like, well, because I'm a huge Guns and Roses fan. I'm guessing you're going to name me Axel.

And he was like, yeah, well, that was it. But now that you guessed it, we can't name you that. So they named his nickname, four years of college, was Duff. And I knew that that was a Guns and Roses member. That's a slumdog story. Slumdog millionaire, baby. Absolutely. That's great.

And then I was going to round out that list here with Izzy Stradlin slash, of course, Axel Rose himself. That's right. All right. I'll give you guys a little bit of a clue here. There's another American band. All right. Bill Barry. Peter Buck.

Oh. Mike Mills. Oh, oh, Karen, and with enthusiasm. R.E.N. You got it. That is R.E.M. Athens, Georgia's own REM. That's right.

And then Michael Stipe would have rounded out that list. Another three points to Karen. Ramping up the difficulty here a little bit. Anyone's game. Anyone's game. I'll just say you have many options on this one, all right. Gary Talent. Roy Bitten

Danny Federici Nils Lofgren Clarence Clemens Neville What do you got for us Is that the East Street band? You got it That is the East Street band

I would have also accepted Bruce Springsteen in the East Street band That's right Paddy Scolpha Max Weinberg Stephen Van Zant And Bruce Frederick Joseph

Springsteen still anyone's game Philip Selway Ed O'Brien Oh Colin Greenwood Oh why Johnny Greenwood No bite no takerser Tom York

Oh Karen and Neville I think at the same time there Karen what do you got Oh I'm so ashamed because I'm such a big fan, Radiohead. That is Radiohead. That's right. Radiohead.

Tom York, the Greenwood brothers. Johnny Greenwood, of course, knows Slouch himself, contributing a lot of music to movies these days. That's right. Two more. Here we go. We got a band from the 70s,

and we got a band from the 90s. You guys figure out which is which. Randy Meisner. Don Felder. Glenn Fry. Oh. Tight one there. Neville. What do you got? The Eagles? That is the Eagles. Don't they have a lot of dons in the band? Too many dons. They got

too many Dons, right? They got Don Felder, Glenn Frye, and then of course, Don Henley. As I'm sure Chris knows, this is probably right in his wheelhouse. You know, they sort of grew out of being Linda Ronstadt's backing band, essentially, sort of the genesis of the Eagles. I did know that. It's interesting. Looking at all these highest-selling albums lists, There is definitely a bias for bands from a certain era, you know, from sort of the 60s through to maybe the 90s, just in the sweet spot of tracking album sold, but also albums being a thing versus singles. But to this day, today, as of today, right now, this recording, the Eagles album, their greatest hits, that's the title, their greatest hits, is the highest selling album in the United States all time, all time, more than thriller, more than, more than, you know, Fleetwood Mac's rumors more than anything. The Eagles have sold so many records.

It's truly incredible. It's crazy because they only have that one song. We're able to do that. Well, I'll tell you, I'll tell you, Chris, what's, I mean, you know, not that I'm like President of the Eagles fan club or anything, but I own this album, their greatest hits, but it does not include Hotel California, which is arguably, that's right. I mean, just to put it in context, they had enough hits for that album,

to be the highest selling album in U.S. history without Hotel California being on that album. Wild. Oh, my God. That's because Hotel California would take up an entire CD. You wouldn't be able to fit any other songs on it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, last one.

Here we go. Ryan Duzick, Mickey Madden, Jesse Carmich. Karen's going to take a guess. What do you got? It's wrong. It's just because you said Madden. I was like, oh, it's good Charlotte.

But that's like Benji Madden. Sorry. No, it is not good Charlotte. It is a, this is a band sold many more millions of albums. I will continue here. Jesse, Jesse Carmichael, James Valentine, frontman, Adam Levine. Oh. Everyone, all together.

What is the answer? Maroon five. You got it. I'll give one point to everyone here. So very tight game. Neville, congratulations. Walking away is the winner with, by my count, 13 points. Well done.

Acquitted yourself very well. That's right. You know the other. Your other guy certified. All right. Let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. And the creators of the popular science show with millions of YouTube subscribers comes the Minute Earth podcast.

All right, well, I think that I should get revenge on everybody here with another musical quiz, if no one mind. Is it perhaps the thing I promise I did not study. the parenthetical song title quiz. That's the one. I hope you did not study

because we don't study on good job, Brain. I don't know if you know that. No one is ever allowed to study. Earlier this season, just to catch everybody up in episode 236, I put together a quiz

about the Nintendo GameCube, and somehow, you'll have to listen to the episode to find out how this happens. We ended up on the topic of Crystal Waters, recording artists behind the unlike

1991 hit gypsy woman parentheses she's homeless now now we all had a light chuckle at that because I think it's like you have this song titled gypsy woman and it's like oh what's that about and then you get to the end of the title but then it's in parentheses it's like she's homeless it's oh okay you know um it just I didn't want to leave it in the subtext there just wanted to make sure you understand you know there's there's so many there's all these song titles out there with with parentheses in them and I think every one of these titles is at least, like, mildly funny. Like, I don't know why, like, the parentheses,

it just, it just makes the song title a little bit funnier. Totally. And I said, okay, I'll do a parenthetical song quiz. And so now we're here. It's all quiz bonanza. I did it. The other thing is, there's so many very well-known songs with parentheses in the title. I had no shortage of songs to shoot.

I could do a part two of this, like, standing on my head. But this is part one. So here is how it's going to work. We have Neville here as a special guest. This quiz is going to be a three-on-one format. You three are all on a trivia team now, an ad hoc trivia team. And I am your quiz master. You're all working together.

I'm going to ask you a trivia question. The answer to this trivia question is going to be the title of a song that has parentheses somewhere in the title. you are going to pool all of your knowledge and you are going to give me one answer to get the point for your team you have to get the song the words in the song title and the parenthetical placements exactly right if you do not get it exactly right i get the point all right so for example for example if i were to give you the question um this simon and garfunkel song is named after the structure currently known as the Ed Koch

Queensborough Bridge, you would answer, a way you can answer this is the 59th Street Bridge song, open parentheses, feeling groovy close parentheses. Man, all right. Okay.

If you don't know how to, if you don't want to say it out loud, you can write somebody, you can designate somebody to write it down too if you want to. Oh, we're saying it. But you got to be, yeah. It's a better to say like, open parentheses, close parentheses, just clearly where they are. Okay. All right. All right. Okay. All right. There's, like Colin said in that episode, there's, there's just so much story in the paretese.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Feeling groovy. Well, okay. Yeah, again, so here, so here we go. Here's question number one. Here's question number one. All right. All right. All right. You're all working together. Question number one. Back to the Rolling Stones. The Rolling Stones first number one song, in the United States was this 1965 banger about Mick Jagger's inability to obtain any contentment. Oh, okay. All right. I think it's open parenthesis. I can't get no. Close parenthesis. Satisfaction. Okay. Yeah, I mean, just linguistically, it's not going to be satisfaction, parence. I can't get no. You know, so, yeah. And if you're going to choose part of the song to emphasize,

But now I'm doubting, like, is the I part of it? Is it just can't get no? Can't get no. Right. Chris did say exact. All right. Time to throw out an answer. I don't think I is in there.

I think it's can't get no. Really? Okay. Satisfactory. Neville. Why not you be the official deliverer? Sure. We'll go with open parenthesis, can't get no.

Close parenthesis, satisfaction. Should have put that eye in there. I can't get no close prentzies satisfaction. That is one point for me. That's okay. Question number two. The apocalypse never sounded like so much fun as it did this 1987 hit from R.E.M. Okay.

It's the end of the world as we know it. And I feel fine. I think it's the end of the world as we know it. Perens, and I feel fine. There's just a journey of self-doubt on each of these questions. So, Colin, you're saying, it's the end of the world as we know it. Yeah.

parentheses. With the word, with the word and, yes. Oh, it's so long. All right, time to wrap it up. Time to wrap it up. It's to get an answer. What's the answer? It's the end of the world as we know it.

Open parenthesis and I feel fine, close parenthesis. Correct. Yes. Very good. Oh, God. That is it. Oh, my God. That is exactly it.

All right. I'm like sweating. This is actually really dovetailing. I think with Collins quiz very much because these are all extremely popular songs, and nobody quite knows exactly what the title of these songs is. Or the punctuation. You introduce the parentheses. It just confuses it all.

Okay. Number three, question three. This 1985 song by artist John Parr was written for a Brat Pack film whose name makes a part of the song's title. Say, okay, it's St. Emol's Fire. Man in Motion. I think Man in Motion is in brackets. it's afterward. I think it's St. Elmo's Fire, open parenthesis, man in motion, close

parenthesis. I only know the song because Colin talked about how that's the only song he sang once at karaoke ever. Quite terribly. Yeah. Well, Colin, you sang it. What's it called? I was very drunk at the time, perhaps too much so. I think Neville's right. I think it's St. Elmo's probably because they're also promoting the movie. Yeah, it's sort of the Goonies are Good Enough type situation. Yeah. Go for it. Okay, we'll say. Yes. St. Elmo's Fire, open parenthesis, man in motion, close parenthesis. You got it. Absolutely right.

Yep. St. Elmo's Fire is the main title of the song, and then Man in Motion is that, you know, and this is one of those cases where the song's title doesn't really remind the listener, like what this is. It's like, what's that song about the man in motion, you know what I mean? So they put it in parentheses. It's like, oh, yeah, no, this is the one. The Sammo's Fire song.

Yes. Question number four. There is a certain 1987 film that I'm sure you know and love that ends with two young lovebirds at a resort into cat skills dancing to this song.

I've had... From dirty dancing. I just want to throw this out there. I'm not saying this is it. I want to throw it out. Is it something like the theme from dirty dancing, Perez, I've had the time of my life?

I just want to throw it out. No self-censorship. We all know the rules. I just want to say that. I've had parentheses. and then the time of my life. The is in the main title. So it's parenthesis, I've had, close parenthesis, the time of my life.

That is it. That is absolutely it. All right. Great work, team. The the the, the could have been anywhere. But yes, the time of my life. The song is called The Time of My Life. But the full title is, I've had the time of my life.

It's like, why do they bother? It's, you know what I mean? Like who? It's like they're not confident. Yeah. Just make it into the title. Yeah. Or it's like two co-writers and they just couldn't agree.

And they're like, all right, you know what? We're just going to put this in parence. And we're just going to sit. Okay. Question number five. People always ask Meatloaf what this song's title means. And his answer is it's not a mystery. It's a response to the line in the song sooner or later you'll be screwing around.

Okay. Meatloaf. I do anything for love. But I won't do that. but I won't do that. Is it I would do anything for love or I'd do anything for love? I think it's I'd. I'd do, I'd, I'd, I'd.

Okay, I don't have a real strong feeling. I just want to just throw it out there. I'd do anything for love, open parenthesis, but I won't do that, close parenthesis. That is it, and I would not have taken I would. It is I'd. Even though he doesn't say that in the song. Again, this is all about like, oh, really, that's the title? Yeah, the title is, I'd do anything for love,

but I won't do that, close parentheses. On the board for you guys. Question number six, Rupert Holmes sang this song about taking out a classified advertisement looking for a drinking buddy with benefits. Is this Pia Collada song? It is Escape the Pena Collada song.

Yeah, I think that's right. I feel very strong. Why? Why is it written like that? Because he knew. He knew exactly what he was selling. And it was Pena Coladas. It wasn't Escape.

What part are drunk bar patrons going to be singing along with on the jukebox? A Pena Colada song. We'll say, escape, open parenthesis, the Pena Colada song, closed parentheses. Yes, this is another example of, yeah, here's my real poetic, artsy title for the song. And then in parentheses is what all you people call it. Yes, it's escape. Open parentheses, the Pina Colada song, plus parentheses, another point on the board for you guys. Very well here.

Great job. We're going to move right along. Question number seven, the signature song of artist Darlene Love. This originally appeared on the album A Christmas Gift for You from Phil Specter. Man, we talked about this on the show, too. I completely forgot. Which Christmas song is it? It's something like I'm coming home for, like.

I believe it's rock and rock. around the Christmas tree. You know, this quiz is hard because first you have to know what song you're asking from the trivia, and then you have to decide on where the stupid punctuation marks are. Because I could see it being rocking around parentheses the Christmas tree, or it could be parentheses rocking around the... What if it's rocking around parentheses the Christmas tree? I feel like that's our best guess, even if it's the wrong song.

Okay, we'll go with that. Rocking around, parentheses, the Christmas tree, close parentheses. Okay. Okay. I don't know how that song's title is, is correct. If indeed it is at all, but the song we're looking for is titled Christmas, parentheses, baby please come home. Oh, I said it too, man. You kind of had a hint on that, Karen.

You did. One point for me. So basically the song's title is just Christmas. Yeah. The odd gas. Yeah, right? There's never been a song about this. Can't believe no one's thought of this before. Question eight, you wake up late for school, man, you don't want to go.

You ask your mom, please, but she still says no. Well, your mom says no, but the Beastie boy say this. All right. Fight for your right to party. Is it, I don't think it's you got to fight for your party. right to party. I think it's just. I think it's a double bracket. I think it's open parenthesis, you got a close parenthesis, fight for your right. Open parenthesis. No. You are blowing my mind. That fuels Chris Colerian to me. It does. And very beastie Boisean too.

No, that's too outrageous. You think that's too outrageous? To have the double set of perens. I mean, he didn't say anything about only one set of perens. I don't know. But Neville, you have a last word. You have the last word on this one. I'm at that Venn diagram where I, where I think it's both. I'm, I'm going to call his bluff on, on the double and say, open parenthesis, you got a close parenthesis, fight for your right, open parenthesis to party, close parenthesis. It'll feel so good if we're right. I love it. You are 100% correct. That is it. It is the out of nowhere, double parenthesis. You got a, in parentheses, fight for your right. And then another set of parenthesis opens up just when you thought you were done. I put that down because I wanted an extra point, but you stole that point away from me with your incredible parenthetical, uh, prowess. Yeah, colerian move to be sure. Extremely calerian, yes, very well, well spotted.

All right, I feel like we're having a good time here. I'm just going to keep going with these. Question number nine, uh, Jay-Z shows an unusual sample. to build this 1998 song around Broadway musical Annie. Right. So is it... Hard Knock Life.

Is it Perens, It'sa, and then Hard Knock Life? Oh. I can't remember if the original song even has the Itza in the title. And so he might have put in the Itza. Just to sound like it. Oh, I see. Yeah, you could argue it either way. Right, right, right.

Oh, like the original was just Hard Knock. We'll say, open parenthesis, it's a close parenthesis, hard knock life. Unfortunately, you guys got sidetracked and off on the, off of the complete wrong direction with this. Oh, no. The actual title of the song is, Hard Knock Life, Open parentheses, Ghetto Anthem. Oh, that's right. Oh, man, it's not a lot of that. Yeah, we totally went the wrong.

We took the wrong fork. Exactly. You got, you got, yeah, you got, you got, uh, distracted by the it's up. Okay, question number 10, this Aretha Franklin hit was covered by Carol King on her album, Tapestry. I think that you make me feel like a natural woman. Yeah, you make me feel like a, in the perens. And I might be wondering how I feel. I think, uh, I think, uh, is part of the title. Natural woman versus a natural woman. I think it's, I think it's just natural woman. All right, Neville, you call it. You call it. I'm going to, I'm going to. I'm going to. I'm going to. I'm going to. I'm go for open parenthesis you make me feel like a close close parenthesis natural woman wrong wrong wrong wrong the title is open parenthesis you make me feel like closed parenthesis uh natural

I'm sorry Karen not even I knew until I looked at that and I was like huh the song's title is a natural woman uh make me feel like in the pretext weird right I didn't know that. Yeah, a little bit. Well, we're having fun, and I have two more. I have two more.

Right now, you guys have five points and I have four points. So how's that possible? We just did, forget it. Just don't even pay attention. Probably you guys have six points. Question number 11. How can I just let you walk away, sang Phil Collins in this theme song to a 1984 film?

I don't know. Against all laws, take a look at me now. Oh, take a look at me now. I don't know, y'all. Was this, I, at the risk of being the boy who cried wolf, I just want to say it. Is it, is it possible that this is another one where, like, it's the theme from? Because it wasn't a movie, right? Against all odds.

Against all odds, parentheses. Ah, man. Take a look at me now. Close parenthesis. Let's just go for it. Okay. Against all odds, open parenthesis. Take a look at me now, close parenthesis.

That's it. You got it. Hey, all right. The teamwork. That follows the The movie title rule It follows the movie title rule Exactly, yep, title of the movie

And then what the song actually says, yeah Finally, question number 12 Question number 12 Let's go right back to the Beatles John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote this song About a guy who I guess Burns a woman's house down apparently In the end? I don't know. I don't know the Beatles

So Colin will have to who burns a woman's house down he hangs out at her apartment or her house and then he then at the end he uh he just sets it on fire well you stop them maxwell silver hammer no that's about him killing women with a hammer that's yeah i wouldn't have buried the lead on that one yeah okay okay right right um house on fire i mean it's got to be later period it's not going to be yeah I know that's. I'm trying to run through like Sergeant Peppers. I'm trying to run through it. I mean, huh. Hanks around. Burns around. Oh, oh, oh, wait, wait, wait. Can you sing a bar? Are you picking up on a line or anything? It's Obla Di, I think. I think. Desmond has a bar in the marketplace. I don't think that that's because they get married, happy ever after in the marketplace. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. This is amazing, you guys. We might, we might need to dip in, we might need to dip for a hint, or Chris is just going to Zee. us out. It is, it is from the album Rubber Soul. Oh, okay. That's a weird one, right? Yes.

Yeah. Norwegian Wood. This bird has flown. Oh, yes. Yes, yes. You're right. That is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think, I think it's Norwegian Wood, parenthesis, this bird has flown, close parenthesis. Yes, that's it. You got it. Oh my God. You're incredible. You know what? That is, that is an excellent, excellent illustration of team-based trivia, because you guys, is, you know, sort of like maybe the sort of the Beatles experts couldn't think of it. Karen throws out like this one song that she's heard of and then it's like, oh, boom, that's it. And I know the parenthetical part. I mean, that's, you would not have been able to reach that individually, but it's like a team of people can reach a conclusion that each of those individuals working separately would not have been able to reach.

Yes, sir. I think that's a beautiful illustration of team-based pub trivia right there. So great job, everybody. I was hoping for the offspring. Offspring has a bunch. Don't spoil part two. I now have, yeah, I know. Well, now I can't use that.

Well, now, no, I have a whole massive list. There's so many that I could do it again. Okay. Okay. No frills, delivers. Get groceries delivered to your door from No Frills with PC Express. Shop online and get $15 in PC optimum points on your first five orders. Shop now at nofrills.

CA. Today, our special guest, Neville, Neville Fogarty, is joining us for our All-Quiz Bonanza number 48. And it's your turn to shine. Neville, what do you have in store for us? Well, thanks, Karen. Since y'all were so kind enough to invite me to join you today, I really didn't want to feel like I was coming between you.

And I took that as my inspiration for this quiz, which I call Between You and Me. So in this quiz, I will. give you two things and you just have to tell me what comes in between them. So sometimes that'll be physically, sometimes geographically, temporally. It's up to you to figure that out. So we'll do this on the buzzer. So go ahead and grab your barnyard buzzers. And here's your first one. All right. What comes between faster and stronger? That looks like that might have been Colin? I believe the Olympic slogan is

faster, higher, stronger. Oh. Yes. So higher is what comes in the middle. That's right. That's Cittius, altius, fortius, the Olympic motto. I thought the daft punk song. I'm thinking of daft punk and I'm like nothing. Me too. Yes, a little misdirected there.

That's good. While researching this, that that was called Hendiatris. That's a word from the Greek for a figure of speech with three related parts. So like lock, stock, and barrel. And that just comes from the Greek for one through three. That's the hen, like in Hendecagon, in Tris. I tried to then stay away from that example of just three words in a phrase. So well done getting that one, Colin. And here comes something

completely different. Neville, did you just slip in Hendecagon? Yeah. Well, I teach math. That's what I do for a living. That makes sense. We just learned that recently on the show. You're just It's like, oh, and Decagon. We're like, wow, I know that word now. Yes, I am familiar with that word. Here's your next one. What comes between market and roast beef? Oh, oh, oh, yeah.

Karen. Stayed home as in this little piggy? That's exactly right. It's home. That's what your little piggies do in the nursery rhyme. So these can come from any walk of life. For example, what comes between troposphere and mesosphere.

Oh, I don't know, man. I'm so bad at these. All right. So, okay. I'll just throw it out there. Stratosphere. It's Stratosphere. You've done it.

Sometimes the strategy is say the one you know. Those are the layers of the atmosphere. The troposphere is the lowest one, the one that we're in where weather takes place. Then stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. And for what it's worth, well, I found a mnemonic because good job, Brain, we love a mnemonic. And the best one I could find was the snow makes things exciting. But I still take issue because there are two of the words that start with T. And they both have the T-H. So I want it to be like a T-R-word, snow makes things exciting. Trash snow makes things exciting. Perfect.

That's our mnemonic for the layers of the atmosphere. What comes between George Washington and Theodore Roosevelt? What single thing? Is it Thomas Jefferson? It is Thomas Jefferson. You know why? Because they're on Mount Rushmore in that order? That's exactly right.

Yes. We went as Mount Rushmore one year for a dress-up night for our pub quiz years ago. I remember, like, we printed out a little, you know, popsicle sticks of, like, the faces. And we also had to, like, try and cram together and get the masks in the right order. It's so good. It's such a good costume. That's great. Somewhere, we'll see if we can find a picture of that.

What comes between Jan and Peter? Oh. Oh. Chris. Alice. Yes, it's Alice. Alice being, of course, in the center of the nine square. grid that starts every episode of the TV intro the little blue backgrounds right right

I was thinking ages at first you did you had good distractor there I was like but wait but Jen and Peter are both the middle kids so there's yeah exactly right exactly right yeah I've tried to make these so that there is one definitive thing in between love it with that in mind tell me what comes between pulp and enamel Oh, okay. Chris. The, you know, the regular part of the tooth. I'm stalling.

You're stalling. Toothbone. It's not the tooth bone. I hope it's this because it's the only other part I know. Is it the dentin? It is the dentin. Oh, gosh. Chris is right that we are thinking about the tooth here.

And so the enamel is that surface on top. And then sort of the core is the pulp. And in between is the denton. I was, at first I was like orange juice. What comes between pulp and no pulp? Stumbull. 2%. Next up, what comes between Illinois Avenue and Atlantic Avenue?

Oh, man. Karen. These are the red properties of Monopoly, and I think it's Kentucky. I can tell you that Kentucky is a Red Avenue and Monopoly and so is Illinois but the answer

is not Kentucky. I was just going to say, all right, my think is one of the railroads or one of the utilities. Oh man, I'm so bad at the Oriole. I'll say Redding. Reading. It is not Redding Railroad, B&O Railroad.

Ah, good ones. Wow, that's hard. That comes up in trivia a lot. Oh, it does. It does. It does. Yeah, just right for trivia. What comes between captain and lieutenant colonel? Ooh. Ooh.

Go for it, Colin. Major? It's major. You've done it. Oh. That's exactly right. All right. These are officer ranks in the U.S. Army.

Okay. I was going to say, I wasn't sure what branch. But, yeah, all right, U.S. Army ranks. Okay. Next, what comes, if you can remember this, between left shark and right shark? Yes, Chris. Katie Perry. Yes, it's Katie Perry from the 2015 Super Bowl.

I'm going to give you a hint for this one. The answer is not Cleveland. Okay, all right. So tell me what comes between Cleveland and Cleveland. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Oh, okay. So who was president between Grover Cleveland's two non-consecutive terms, is how I'm interpreting this question. There's absolutely no excuse for us not knowing these inside and out. And yet here we are with our pants down again. Yeah. I mean, I'll tell you, you have the exact right idea here.

I'll put myself out on the limb here. Was it Chester Arthur? It's not Chester Arthur. Yeah, Chris. Chester A, Arthur. Whether the A is in parentheses or not, it is not any form of Chester are here. Chester, a natural woman. That's what the A stands for. It's Harrison as in Benjamin Harrison.

Oh, Benji. Okay. Tell me, what comes between Ghana and Benin? Oh. I'm pretty sure I know this. I believe it's Togo. It is Togo. My ninth grade teacher, I got to give it up to Mrs. Hepner.

She said, all right, Ghana, Togo Bannon, she remembered, go to bed. And that to me now, all these years later, all these years later, still sticks with me. If I'm looking up, go to bed, GTV. Tell me what comes between sulfur and argon. Oh, man. All right, well, Argonne is a noble gas, so it's all the way on the right, you know, so it's a thing. I like that thought. Okay.

slightly to the left of it, yeah. Fluorine is one of the halogens, but it's the one that's next to oxygen. So we're down, we're down one row. And if you listen to fluorine, you might get a rhyming... Chlorine. Chlorine is it. Nicely done. Nice.

What comes between a loose head prop and a tight head prop? I can tell you... Let's go. Go for it, Chris. Medium head prop. It's a brilliant idea, but no. If that's not it, at least, you know, process of, let's get it out there.

I'm not even sure what arena we're in here. Is this like aircraft, like a propeller? I mean, is this, I... This is someone whose job is to prop someone else. But some other field where you might rely on someone for physical support. cheerleading? These are positions in rugby.

Oh. They support the person who reaches in with their legs in the scrum to try and get the ball. And that player is called The quarterback. No, it's the hooker.

The hooker. They hook the ball. They're also called the rake. That's a toughie. That's a tough one of knowledge. And here's your last one. Tell me what comes between It's Your Funeral Home and Crematorium and a different shop in nearly every episode.

Oh, gosh. Oh. Colin. Is that Bob's Burgers? It is Bob's Burgers. Okay. The restaurant Bob's Burgers on the TV show of the same name sits between a funeral home

and crematorium, and in the opening sequence, we see that the building on the other side is newly renovated, and a different store has taken over in each episode. For example, a fridge too far used of appliances, or you can't handle the tooth, dental extraction. Their puns are so good. Yeah. Yeah, they really are. Well done. You all got so many points that I frankly lost track. Here's a bit of a behind-the-scenes story. This is not my quiz. Actually, Colin, you touched upon this earlier.

Even though we've been making this show since 2012, making quizzes is still like a, it's a process filled with ups and downs, right? There are like half-baked ideas, half-written quizzes, or even like failed ideas that never even make it to the air. Right. I have so many. of them. It's tricky because sometimes it's about gauging difficulties, sometimes it's about

execution, sometimes it's about maybe it doesn't seem as fun. So it's a lot of things to balance. I want to tell you guys this quiz idea that I had for this episode that I absolutely love, but I just couldn't get it to work. But as a silver lining, I found something really, really interesting that I would like to share. So back in episode 225, all quiz 45, I debuted a quiz, hopefully you guys remember, where I use the text to speech AI to make famous cartoon characters read, recite Shakespeare lines. I still have nightmares about some of them, yes. And you had to identify the play and identify the cartoon character speaker, right?

Here's an example. All that glitters is not gold. So for this week, I wanted to do something similar. You know those inspirational or cheeky quote signs? that people put on their walls as, like, decor. Yes. Successories. Live, what is it? Successories?

Oh, I thought you're talking about, like, the corporate ones. Like, you know. Oh, those two. Oh, yeah. Where, you know, it's like teamwork. And it's a picture of, you know, like animals, like making a bridge to get some food or something like that. Yeah. Successories.

Yeah. Oh, that's so good. So what you're talking about more like the stuff that they hang up at the live, laugh, love, written in cursive on the kitchen wall. Right, right. Okay, okay, all right. Live, laugh, love, another hindiatrist. Ah.

My idea for this quiz, I was going to go on Etsy. Find some wall decor quotes and then use the same text to speech AI to get like famous cartoon voices to read them out loud and you have to identify the voices. I just couldn't get it to work. But I found a lot of, I found a lot of good quotes like, you know, like, don't talk to me until I have coffee. Right, right. Yeah, right.

But I did find the origin to the live, laugh. love phenomenal. No, I really? Yes. There's an origin story. So most people think it's an Emerson quote. American writer, poet. Yes, I certainly thought that.

People attribute. But it's not. It is not. The original came from poet Bessie Anderson Stanley in her poem called Success. So titled Success. And the passage reads, I'll read it to you, he has achieved success who has lived well laughed often and loved much this is actually etched on her headstone by the way this is the second time this season i had to go to findagrave.com

to back check the gravestone but like so this this larger passage of the poem is on her on her gravestone and somehow people just kind of condensed it into from that passage to oh live laugh love According to Google, searches for Live, Laugh, Love took off in 2004 and really, really peaked at 2008. Analyst actually theorized that it was because of Pinterest, Etsy, and the recession, the 2008 recession. And people were really looking for that feel good, positivity, and also like an easy and cheap way to like decorate their homes or make their house feel homey and safe, you know, through in the midst of recession as of right now i've searched for live life love on etzy there are 12,000 things there are 12,000 different live laugh love products some are parody their candles their signs um but yeah live laugh love not an emerson quote it is from bessie anderson stanley

the mother of live laugh love so much sports talk i wasn't really anticipating so much sports talk in this episode because, as you know, it's not our area of expertise in the spirit of always bettering ourselves a lot like Dana always used to make us do on these shows, is always confront our fears. Yeah, take our medicine. So here I have a quiz about sports. Colorful and descriptive sport jargon. Terminology. There's the three of you guys. I have nine questions. We're going to rotate around. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to tell you the sport and I'm going to tell you the very descriptive jargon. And I want you to answer what you think it's describing. All right. And we'll do it in turns. So who wants to start first? I'll go for it.

All right. All right. Neville, special guest. In ice skating, what is a hair cutter? You've got these skates with blades on them. And so I can imagine that this is like someone taking a a bit of a t where they they have one leg normal and the the front of their body is leaning forward and their other leg is up and they're going to spin around and they're going to sort of go above someone's head. I love the imagination. A haircuter is when a single skater, they're spinning and they hold one of their ankles to their head.

And then they lean back. Their head leans back. So they're bringing that blade close. to their head and they're spinning. That is a haircutter. Wow. All right. Next one. Chris, in bowling, what is a ham bone? What is a ham bone is? What is a ham bone? All of these terms, they're not, you know it or you don't. They're descriptive enough that you can kind of go with it. It kind of clues into what they are. Right, right, right. A ham bone. Okay. I mean, I'm picturing like a wishbone type shape. I mean, is it a certain,

configuration of pins that are left after a ball strike, like a certain type of split of the pins. I like that idea. That actually I read is called a sour apple. It's a, it's, it's, it's, you bowl and then there's a split that happens. That's a sour apple. A ham bone is the next evolution of a turkey. Oh, really? So it's four strikes in a row. Four strikes a row. Okay. You upgrade from your turkey feast to a ham. That's a downgrade for me. okay. All right, Colin, you're next. In skiing, in skiing, what is a milk run? A milk run, a milk run. Or a milk root. I'll say, I'll say that is like a super easy route or a super easy path. Like, I know, like, sometimes in skiing, they have like, you know, you can take different, you know, routes down, down the slopes. I'll say it's a really easy one. You're close. In skiing, a milk run is the first.

first run of the day, usually early in the morning. So it's like a milkman on his route. Oh, okay. On their root, milk person. The snow conditions are maybe a little bit better. So it's a great way to like warm up for the rest of the day. Neville, your turn. In Australian rules football, we have to include Australian rules.

Sure. They just had the grand finals. In Australian rules football, what is a glue pot? I'll give you a hint. It's not a move or a person. What is a glue pot? Something that is sticky. Yeah, I mean, I feel like Australian rules football is the one where sometimes people will pick other people up.

Yeah. And I kind of, I want to see if that one thing that I know about Australian rules football might it all be related to a glue. Like maybe, maybe it has to. do with what if what if there's what if there's a like a mud puddle on the pitch that's exactly what really amazing is describing the conditions where the field maybe after a rain it's sticky and so like traversing through that part of the pitch the field is is sticky and it's like going through glue pot that's good all right Chris you're up in rowing Okay.

What is catching a crab? I mean, I wish that it was like the oar comes up out of the water and there's just a crab hanging onto it. And then you win. Then you win the rowing for the day. They had the golden crab. But I'm pretty sure that's not it. Okay, okay, okay.

So I mean, you know, crabs, you know, the two kind of thing. Like if two oars like smack into each other or interlock or something like. like that you're so close uh you're so close i mean give to you it is a rower with a faulty stroke it catches the water in kind of the wrong way and it and it whips the handle of the or into your face oh oh i mean it's not good but it's really funny when you do a google image search of like that's a lot of like high speed photographs of people like yeah oof faces Wow, very, very good guess. Very good guess.

All right, Colin, you're next. In golf, what is Afraid of the Dark? Huh. Afraid of the dark. Afraid of the dark in golf. The ball does something. You say the ball's afraid of the dark or maybe it's the, I don't know. Like a ball that goes in the sand.

It likes the light. It doesn't want the lights to go off. Well, that could be, okay, what's dark? What's a dark place that the ball is? Oh, yeah, it doesn't want to go in the hole. It doesn't want to go in the hole. It's afraid of the dark. Thank you, Chris, for leading me by the nose there to that one.

Yes, the ball that won't go in the hole. It's afraid of the dark. It's the player's fault, but you're blaming the ball. No, it's afraid of the dark. It's always the ball's fault. Poor ball. All right. Neville, last one for you.

In cricket, what is a Bunsen? The full term is Bunsen burner. well thank you rhyming rhyming slang okay okay benson burner something that rhymes with burner earner learner it could be a learner like someone who's new to it and is a rookie oh that person's a real bunsen yeah um a turner or a returner you got it it is a turner it's a turner a ball that turns when it spins it's turning that's turning that's wow I would wish we had more cockney rhyming slang in the U.S. I know that's a nonsensical statement, but I just like a puzzle. It's great. It is. It's a built-in puzzle. All right, Chris, you're next. In tennis and in, and sometimes in other sports like Ultimate Frisbee, what is a bagel? What is a bagel? Oh, is it, well, wait, no, I mean, I was going to say, oh, it's a hole in one, but I don't say, uh, a tennis hole in one.

But what do you, yeah, I mean, it's like something, if I keep playing tennis, but I can't get the ball to go into the hole. Chris, we get a bagel in sports trivia. Oh, is it literally just, oh, is it, it's just a zero? It is, it is zero. In tennis specifically, it is a six zero set. Yeah. But in a lot of sports, it is just zero because it has a hole through it. All right, last question.

And this is the one that inspired this quiz, Colin, in baseball, what is a snow cone? Oh, I know a snow. No one confident, a snow cone, I know this. Snow cone, snow cone is when a fielder goes to catch the ball and catches it, but just barely. It's like in the tip of their glove and you see it poking out, it's poking out the top of their gloves, and it looks like they're holding, what they're holding a little snow cone, yeah. That is exactly correct. And for some reason, this cracked me up so much.

I just looked at pictures of all this phenomenon, a snow cone, it's just ball. is on top of their folded glove and it looks like they're carrying a snow cone. It's ridiculous. Anyways, thank you everybody for my sports jargon quiz all inspired by the snow cone. That's so creative.
