Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer Newarth, and today we're joined by many special guests, including Brandon Butler, Brad Cape, and Phil Yeomans.

Am I saying that right, or did I mess it up again? That is correct. Awesome. All right. In addition to them, we also have Steve, Corinne, Brody, Giannis, and Sean. Well, I'd like to point out, Brandon Butler's been on the show many times. Yep. Several times.

He, people would know, would recognize, people that listen to the Meat Eater podcast, his story about turning in some poachers and in retaliation having his home burnt down. Pat Durkin has written about it twice on themeateater.com, covered the story.

And introduced our other fellas here because you guys have covered that. That's right. We also have the Wyoming Corner Crossing victims, two of the three of you, correct? Four. Two of the four of you. What happened to the other two guys? Why couldn't they make it? They couldn't make it.

I don't know what to add. Prior obligations. Maybe they're too good at trivia. That's right. Brandon, Brad, Phil, how do you guys feel about trivia? I've got a stack of Trivial Pursuit games In the corner at home Really?

I get them at like the Goodwill The Fish and Game Edition? It's one of my like garage sale look for things Sure Can we play partners? Oh I got my glasses on Yeah Now if you're not familiar

This is a 10 round quiz show With questions from our four verticals. Can I add one more thing? Yes. Yanni brought up a great question while we were making 19 pounds of meatballs for a 4-H event yesterday. And when you're frying 19 pounds of one-inch meatballs, you've got a lot of time to talk. Yeah, I was kind of surprised. It was one of those deals where I felt like Steve's mind was somewhere else because I'd ask a couple questions, I'd get an answer or two, but it never would

go anywhere. It'd be quiet for a minute or two, and then I'd be like, well, what about in trivia? You notice that we haven't had a person have a clean sweep and get every question right. No, we have. You're sitting in the room with him. We had a perfect game? Oh, we think that a perfect game

should... you get a thousand dollar donation. We could retroactively do that. I think that was perfect game should You get a thousand dollar donation We could retroactively do that I think that was even during the hundred dollar days It was early days of trivia I didn't know he played a perfect game But I think if you get a perfect game, it's a thousand bucks Well, congrats, Brody

I need some folders to put up I would feel You can trust him I would feel as though I failed the podcast if I allowed another perfect game. I think then I'm not... I don't have good trivia.

Challenge accepted. That's right. I like it. We can do that going forward. $1,000 if you pitch a perfect game. Now, again, these questions are from our four verticals,

which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking, and there is a prize. Meteor will donate $500 or $1,000 to the conservation organization of the winner's choosing. So far, we've had Steve win six times. Brody win four. Yannis win two. Clay said Corinne chest.

Have you done the math yet? No. So here's the problem. Are you not doing it? I vow to you that it will get done. Okay. The problem is I have to go back and listen to 12 podcasts that are 30 minutes each. No, you don't.

Yeah, I do. Because... Is there a better way to do it than that? Here's the problem. We tend to get to the end of the show, and when Phil gives his updates, he's only giving updates for the people that are in it. So I want to figure out who's getting... If I'm going to do this, I'm going to do it thoroughly.

Okay, great. We're going to get how many questions everybody in the room gets right. So we're going to do this right. I may even need to get how many questions everybody in the room gets right. So we're going to do this right. I may even need to like get some listener help. If you want to help me out and help me keep a spreadsheet for this email trivia at the meat eater.com. If I have you go back and listen to an episode and figure out the winner and who got what, right. I'm going to march over to our merch room. I'm going to grab you a box. It may have binoculars in it. It may have a t-shirt. It may have a water bottle. And I'm going to send that to you for helping me appease Steve

and get everybody's score and stats. What should their subject line be? Just send the email there. We'll figure it out. I think people should also send one in where the subject line is Spencer can suck it. You're saying Spencer. Just see how many come in. You're not going to do it by game. You're going to do it by

question. We will go by question. We'll get stats like do it by game. You're going to do it by question. We will go by question. We'll get stats like. I like it. Brody averages 5.7, right? Giannis averages 6.3. If we're going to do this. Oh, I love it. This is going to look like a baseball box score when we're done.

I love it. We have to know which player is good at which vertical, too. Like, Giannis is like 75% in conservation. Wow. Yeah, that would give people like, you could have a whole show where people put suits on and argue about the trivia stats. That's right. I'm certainly going to need listener help now.

Email spencercansuckit to trivia at themedia.com. And it'll be to help Spencer. That's right. Now we have some housekeeping to get to. On a And it'll be helping, it'll be to help Spencer. That's right. Now we have some housekeeping to get to. On a previous episode of Trivia, our guests may not know this, but I named Missouri as having the greatest game agency logo in America. Well, recently. You point, you made that, that wasn't like a trivia question.

That was just you saying that. It was a trivia question. I declared it the greatest game agency logo. Then I showed it to the room and you guys had to figure out what state yeah but i mean you were just clarifying that you wouldn't ask a trivia question like who has the greatest you were just observant correct yeah yep now we had missouri department of conservation district supervisor lieutenant kevin eulinger reached out and thanked us for that declaration. He said it brought him a real sense of pride. And as a token of his appreciation,

he sent us 10 logo patches that were worn by Missouri conservation officers in the line of duty. Thank you, Kevin. Now, the real cool thing about these patches is that not only do they look good, like it's a digital file, but when you put them on a T-shirt as a patch that someone wears, it looks just as good there. Not everything translates well from digital to the physical world,

but these look amazing. Yeah, it does look great. I'm going to make one of these for Brandon, but I'm going to take a lighter and kind of burn the... kind of char the edges up. Dark. Steve's going dark.

So thank you, Kevin. Also, on a previous episode of Trivia, I asked what the five countries are that have polar bears. Are you back into this again? We got another thing to address here. A few folks in the room said Antarctica, which is incorrect because it's not a country and it doesn't have bears.

Now this inspired about five people to write in and point out that the name Antarctica actually translates to no bears. Here's what they mean. The name Arctic comes from the Greek word Arctos, which means bear. And the ant at the beginning of Antarctica is supposed to be anti as in the opposite of. So Antarctica means the opposite of the land of bear. Now, the explorers who named it that weren't referring to physical bears like polar bears, but instead they were talking about the great and little bear constellations,

which are only visible from the Northern Hemisphere. So although they were talking about space bears, it actually works with polar bears as well. And now you'll always remember that neither one exists in Antarctica. I don't remember this. I was probably very excited about having gotten it right, but

are you telling me that people in this room put down that Antarctica has polar bears? I'm telling you that people did that and then you even shamed them. You even shamed them for putting that down. Are they employees here? We have one person in the corner. Oh, I don't care. If Corinne did it, and then you even shamed them. You even shamed them for putting that down. Are they employees here? We have one person in the corner. Oh, I don't care.

If Corinne did it, that's fine. We also had a couple of our guests at the time, Cam and Rihanna, that said that. Because I would have to go. HR would have to pay these people a visit. Corinne? This is when I stop playing. All right, let's keep moving.

And with that, we are on to meat-eater trivia. Play the drop, Phil. Look, I need to know what I stand to win. Everything. How's that? You stand to win everything. Game on, suckers! Question one.

The topic is conservation, and as always, it is multiple choice. This first great question comes to us via Derek Stamey. If you have a question you think is right for Meat Eater Trivia, send it to trivia at themeateater.com. Which of these is not one of the five tools of wildlife management listed in the 1949 book, A Sand County Almanac? Hold on, back up. Say that again. Which of these is not one of the five tools of wildlife management listed in the 1949 book, A Sand County Almanac? Is it axe, cow, water, or gun? Which is not one of the five tools of wildlife management in a Sand County Almanac?

Again, your choices are axe, cow, water, or gun. So three of those are a tool and one of them is not. How do you feel about this one, Steve? 50-50. I'm feeling 50-50 too. I got a little trivia for you, Spencer. Okay. What year was most of that book written?

Well, I would say 1945. No, it was written in the 20s. Wow. Why didn't it come out until so much later? Basically, it's his collected writing. Observations over years and years. How many folks in the room have read that book? Wow. Okay.

You never read that book? No, I read the book. Give me a break. So about 80% of the folks. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal the answer. We have Steve saying cow, Sean saying axe, Brandon saying cow, Brad saying cow, Brody saying cow, Corinne saying gun, Phil saying gun, and Giannis saying cow.

Now, every other word, every three words Leopold uses is axe. The correct answer, which nobody got, is water. Well, he's wrong. I wasn't even paying attention. Here is Leopold's famous quote from the book. The central thesis of game management is this. Game can be restored by the creative use of the same tools which have heretofore destroyed it. Axe, plow, cow, fire, and gun.

So he never mentions water. I don't know if we've ever had an ophir on the first question before. Multiple choices. I know, it's easy too. I remember going to- Anyone's game. I remember someone was talking about desert b was talking about desert bighorn recovery And he said

He was saying usually Wildlife recovery in the desert comes down to water And money And he was talking about a certain spot But he goes in this spot it's just water So they have the money they need water Question two the topic is fishing This type of rig which is

popular among bass anglers is a finesse fishing style that involves hooking a soft plastic through the middle of the body this type of rig which is popular among bass anglers is a finesse fishing style that involves hooking a soft plastic through the middle of the body. Did you know that he used to be a competitive bass fisherman? Who did? Brad. Yeah?

I felt as though our Missouri folks are probably some bass anglers that may have a good chance Yeah, he'll tailor. He'll throw you, like, not two bones, but he might throw you a bone. I like that. I can handle that. Does everybody have an answer we had some quick answers there Yeah, I quite cockily Again bro, he's looking at me like staring at Type of a small mouth on that lake by your old house Which is popular? bass singers. No, you're thinking of the wrong thing.

No, I'm not. Don't touch your board. Does everybody have an answer? Yeah, let's go. Go ahead and reveal. We have Steve saying wacky. Sean saying wacky, wacky, wacky. Brody saying Cinco.

I'm ahead of Brody. Corinne. What are you saying? Corinne without an answer. Phil saying jig. Giannis saying Carolina. I'm ahead of Brody. The correct answer is wacky or neeko.

Cinco is not correct, but a cinco worm is what you would traditionally use on a wacky rig. So you were on the right mindset. Remember, Brody, last time we played, bro, you were ahead of me early and I whooped you. So don't lose hope. I'm going back to just not talking about it. Too late. Usually a wacky rig is fished without weight. With a Senko.

With a Senko. But you could also use it with a creature bait or any of the other soft bass. And Senko, isn't Senko like a, it's a specific product. Yeah, that's like Gary. Yeah, Yamamoto. Yes. Yamamoto. He made those.

Now, wacky or Niko, usually a Wacky Rig is fish without weight, making it the ideal setup for catching shallow bass near docks and weed lines. And because Wacky Rig baits have so much action on their own, they require very little rod movement to get bites. Now, is that what Giannis was referring to that you used on the lake? No, he's thinking of, what's that call where you got the hook tied directly into the main line? Drop shot. He was talking about drop shot.

I'm impressed you got such a hardcore bass question right. Dude, I guarantee, I guarantee I've caught more largemouth bass than you have. That's fine. I'm not debating that. Question three. I grew up in a largemouth bass lake. That's great. The topic is conservation.

The extinct dodo bird was only found on one island in what ocean? Again, the extinct dodo bird was only found on one island in what ocean? Corinne, how do you feel about this one since you have the trophy game piece that has a dodo bird on it? I'm not quite sure. Okay. I'm not quite sure. Okay. Not totally sure. One more time. The extinct dodo bird was only found

on one island in what ocean? Does anybody know this or is everybody just taking a guess? Yes. I can't remember the name of the island. And I don't know where it was. Makes it tough. Well, I thought long and hard, and I have an answer that I'm not embarrassed by.

Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Atlantic. Sean saying Atlantic. Brandon saying Indian. Brad saying Pacific. Brody saying Indian. Corinne saying Galapagos. Brad saying Pacific. Brody saying Indian. Corinne saying Galapagos.

Phil saying Pacific. And Yana saying Indian. The correct answer is Indian. Oh, Brody. We had a few people get it right. I thought you had to give an island. No, no, no. We're just looking for the ocean.

Brody ties her up. The species was discovered by sailors about 600 miles east of Madagascar in 1507, and less than 200 years later, the last dodo died. They were driven to extinction through overharvesting, habitat loss, and the presence of invasive species like rats and pigs. That's another one where my homunculus knew.

Because there was like a voice a voice somewhere in my body was like indian ocean i was like that was the atlantic it just looks like a more like a warm colder weather bird when i look at him wonder if you could call him in not anymore no that'd be a slow ass hunt. It's like, didn't see shit. Question four. The topic is biology. And this question comes to us via Brandon Cole gazer. If you have a question, anything is right for me to trivia,

send it to trivia at the meat eater.com. Besides whales, there are only two animals with ivory in North America. What are they? Besides whales, there are only two animals with ivory in North America. What are they? Besides whales, there are only two animals with ivory in North America. What are they? We need both animals. Oh, both.

Both of them. I feel like it should be one of, dude. I've got questions. I'll get neither. I'll get neither. A lot of folks thinking hard. Is there kind of like a trick element to it? Yeah, say that again.

Besides whales, there are only two animals with ivory in North America. What are they? I want to ask a question, but I can't. You wouldn't answer it anyway. Can I confer with you outside for a minute? No. Can I confer with you outside for a minute? Brody, you can ask your question, and I'll tell you.

I'm not going to tell you anything. Or you can just not ask your question. I feel like I'd give too much away by asking the question. I can't do it. Does everybody have an answer? And I'm going to be mad if... I'm leaving what I had. I'm leaving what I had.

So if I'm wrong, I can be like, but I'm kind of right. Then why are you? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying walrus and elk. Sean saying elk. Brandon saying elk and the ivory-billed woodpecker. Brad saying walrus and elk.. Brad saying walrus and elk. Brody saying walrus and elk.

Corinne saying elk and narwhal, which is a whale. Phil saying elk and walrus. And Yana saying walrus and elk. The correct answer is elk and walrus. You guys did very well. So what about the narwhal? That's a whale. Yeah, that's why I said animal.

Is a whale not an animal? Besides whales. God, I never listened to the whole question. I know. That's a whale. Yeah, that's why I said- You said animal. Is a whale not an animal? Besides whales. Oh, God, I never listened to the whole question. I know. That's the problem I have. It was literally the first two words, besides whales. Yeah, yeah. There are only two animals.

I miss a lot by talking. And the other thing is, that's why I wanted to confer with him to be like, how nitpicky are you being on what's a whale? Yeah. Yeah. Other animals with ivory include elephants, hippos, narwhals, orcas, sperm whales, and warthogs. But thanks to a 2016 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service law, it is now actually harder to buy ivory from any of those animals

than it is to buy ivory from an extinct mastodon. If you go on eBay and you're trying to buy ivory, you can find all sorts listing for mastodon, but go on ebay and you're trying to like buy ivory you can find all sorts listing for uh like mastodon but nothing from those other other critters do you know that um i have i want to go find out what's up with it but i talk about the dagger my dad brought back from world war ii that he got in north africa that's way cool it's got a big ivory handle on it and i think you can die and know what it is you can still like uh barter with those or sell them it's pre-1972 which is the old ass thing but i just want someone to know what it is. You can still barter with those or sell them. It's pre-1972.

This is an old-ass thing, but I just want someone to look at it and see if they can tell what kind of ivory it is. There's enough of a deal where he brought it home with him. He's trying to bring a Tommy gun home, but couldn't. I have a book on my desk that maybe would help out. I'll give that to you. Question five. We'll get a scoreboard update from Phil after this.

The topic is public lands. In 2019, Bush Light did a promotion where they gave a lifetime supply of beer to someone who found their pop-up bar in the Mark Twain National Forest, which is located in what state? Again, in 2019, Bush Light did a promotion where they gave a lifetime supply of beer to someone who found their pop-up bar in Mark Twain National Forest, which is located in what state? Can I get a bonus point if I know what his real name was? No.

Phil gets a bonus point. Does everybody have an answer? Brody? Yep. Where you got, Brody? Just staring at my answer, hoping it's right. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Missouri, Sean saying Missouri, Missouri, Missouri, Missouri, Crin saying Arkansas, Phil saying Missouri, and Giannis saying Missouri. The correct answer is Missouri.

I know somebody that went to it. Yeah, you know what I think we should do? If I can name what town he was born in, I get a point. You can tell us the name, but we will not give you a point. What was it? Hannibal, Missouri. Hannibal. That promotion was a disaster.

Because apparently Bush only planned for a few hundred fans to show up, but got a few thousand instead. One person I interviewed back in 2019 told me that they took a vacation day and drove 14 hours to find the bar. And when they did, all they got was one single warm beer. Another attendee I talked to said they saw someone pass out from heat stroke on the hike there. But the good news is this, Bush ended up planting thousands of trees and donating thousands of dollars to the National Forest Foundation. So cheers to them. Now, did you guys attend that at all? I know somebody that did. And what was their feedback on it? Exactly what you said.

Everything was gone by the time people got there. Brad tried to corner cross his way in there. He didn't go because it was a straight line. Yeah, right, with no corners. Phil, here's for the scoreboard update. Yes, we have Corinne in third place with zero points. Excuse me. Eight.

Tied for second place, we have Phil and Sean with two points. And then tied for first, five people. We have Brad, Brandon, Brody, Giannis, and Steve. Halfway through the game of trivia. Wow. This happened to us last time we played. But a winner emerged. Hey, folks.

Question six. The topic is foraging. This next great question comes to us via Dave Kalaszczak. If you have a question you think is right for MeatEater Trivia, send it to trivia at themeateater.com. Ostrich ferns produce edible fronds that are more commonly known as what? What? Ostrich ferns. Like the bird in ostrich. What? What?

Steve, you should pay Spencer more. I've known Steve now for, it's coming on, I'm like a month or two away. I don't know what Spencer makes. I'm a month or two away from knowing him for 10 years. And working with him for almost as long. 10 years? No.

You think you knew me? Oh, I'm sorry. Okay, yeah, keep going. I'm trying to think right now. I know what it is. I know what it is. I feel like he's stalling for you. Can you repeat it one more time?

No, he's distracting me. He's distracting me. How do you not know the answer? I do know the answer. I just don't know it. Let's hear this very important thought from Giannis, and then I'll repeat the question. I know it, but I can't remember. Giannis is getting at the old stump Steve thing, I think.

You guys got to shut up. All right, one more time. Ostrich ferns produce edible fronds that are more commonly known as what? That Humunculus is working real hard over here. No, he doesn't know. I'm listening for him. He doesn't know. The Humunculus doesn't eat plants.

It's up to the main me to find out. But I know what it is. I've been with Steve through a lot of experiences. Stop! Come on! Call it, Spencer! Does everybody else have an answer? I'll save my comment until after

we... You got it, Steve. No, I don't. It's not it. Go ahead and reveal your answer. Steve doesn't have an answer. Sean doesn't have an answer. Brandon's don't. It's not it. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Steve doesn't have an answer. Sean doesn't have an answer. Brandon's saying eggs. Ah, Brody got it. Son of a bitch.

Brody's saying fiddleheads. Corinne's saying Follix. Phil's saying Brussels sprouts. And Giannis' saying fiddleheads. The correct answer is fiddleheads. Nice work, Giannis. Fiddleheads are sweet and crisp, making them a great option for sautéing or roasting. If you want to learn how to cook them and find

them, then check out our article at TheMedia.com called Four Delicious Plants You Can Forage in Spring. You gotta cook them, right? They make you sick if you don't? I don't know that, but I would imagine you'd want to cook them anyway. Now, Giannis, you had something very, very, very important.

I was eating fiddle heads when you were laughing. Steve should pay you more. I've seen Steve through a lot of highs and a lot of lows over the last 10 years. And even through, like, I would, watching Steve play trivia, he's as happy as killing a 200-inch buck, as happy as having, like, brand-newborn babies around. Wow. Have your nap.

Seriously. Have your nap. He. Have your nap. He's so excited. Was he this happy when we were just recording for three hours talking about corner crossing? Not at all. No. And he's not even winning. We're on to question seven.

The topic is nature. This person who has more than 20 plants and animals named after him, narrated the documentaries Planet Earth and Blue Planet. Again, this person, who has more than 20 plants and animals named after him, narrated the documentaries Planet Earth and Blue Planet. You know it? I complain about them all the time. Oh, okay. What's that? Yeah, you've heard me complain about it.

I think that he should hang it up and they should let somebody else take a crack at it. One more time. This person who has more than 20 plants and animals named after him narrated the documentaries Planet Earth and Blue Planet. Does everybody have an answer? Steve is doing some more writing. That was my initial bit of writing. Go ahead and reveal your answers.

We have Steve saying Sir Attenborough. Sean saying Attenborough. Brandon saying Morgan Freeman. Brad saying... Nah, I was saying Bill Nye the Science Guy. Bill Nye the Science Guy. He's not right. Brody saying Richard Attenborough, which is Attenborough's dad.

He's not right. I think it's his dad., which is Attenborough's dad. He's not right. I think it's his dad. I think it's his brother. Corinne saying David Attenborough. Phil saying Peckins. Giannis saying Attenborough. The correct answer is David Attenborough. I had the D in front of me. I'm good on sir because he's

Sir David Attenborough. Brody is wrong. He is wrong. Sean's right because he didn't specify. Yeah, just Attenborough would be good. Brody is wrong. He is wrong. Sean's right because he didn't specify. Yeah, just Attenborough would be good enough. No, that's not good enough. That is acceptable in Jeopardy. But he's not right. No, he's not right. I'm not right.

If he gets Attenborough... You'd have done better by less. More with less. Alright. I've had enough of this. His most recent documentary is the five-part series Prehistoric Planet on Apple TV.

I binged it last week and it's genuinely one of the greatest things I've ever watched. If you or your family is even remotely interested in dinosaurs, you need to watch this show.

It's so damn good. I get a little burned out on that guy. You need to watch Prehistoric. Where he's like, whale. He very much reads to the edit, you know? It's like a whisper. Like a whale will show up. Whales.

It's great. No, it drives me a little bit nuts. I'd rather have my kid narrate it. My kid's like, oh my God! Look at that whale! You should watch Prehistoric Planet and just put it on mute, and then your kid can narrate it. My kid's like, oh my god! Look at that whale! You should watch Prehistoric Planet and just put it on mute and then your kid can narrate it. That's a good idea.

Question 8, the topic is fishing. Catadromous fish spend most of their life in freshwater but go to saltwater to spawn. And there is only one catadromous fish in North America. What is it? Catadromous fish spend most of their life in freshwater,

but they go to saltwater to spawn, and there's only one of these fish in North America. What is it? Brody, did you write cockily? Oh, yeah. It looked like it, but your mic was kind of... I mean, but we're tied. I know, but your mic was blocking, or Brad mean, but we're tied. I know, but your mic was blocking.

Or Brad's mic. No, sorry. Brandon's mic. So I couldn't see if you were writing cockily. Mm-hmm. Sure was. Or just writing. Yep.

Very cockily. Almost used all caps. He's got an exclamation point. I want to know if for the next game, any of you boys want to get in on a little Calcutta before we start. Oh, I'll do a side bet any time. Every time. All right.

We should just have a running pool. I also think we should do an episode where, like, are you guys familiar with the show Drunk History? Yeah. We should do one of those, but for this. Oh, we're getting shit-faced? Does that involve us drinking? No, I mean, I'd do it for that. There you go.

I just have Kylie schedule my hangover. The next day, I'll be like, Steve, hangover. Eight to five. You need two days. You need two days for a real hangover. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answer. We have Steve saying American eel.

Sean without an answer. Sean without an answer. Brandon without an answer. Brad saying the king salmon. Brody saying the American eel. Corinne saying Chinook salmon. Phil without an answer. And Giannis saying American eel. The correct answer is American eel.

Is Giannis winning? We'll get a scoreboard update in a second. Catadromous fish make some of the most extreme migrations in the animal kingdom. The best example is an American eel that was caught in southern Minnesota in 2017. For that fish to end up there, she likely made a 4,000 mile journey from where she was born

in the Atlantic Ocean. They spawn in the Sargasso Sea. And it's a free-cast egg. Just drifts. And then it turns into a thing called an elver, and that drifts right. And it's a free cast egg. Just drifts. And then it turns into like a thing called the Elver and that drifts around. Eventually it's big enough for locomotion and hauls and coals of the American coast.

They've tossed the idea around of listing them. Because they're doing pretty badly in some areas. Yeah. One of the most mysterious spawners. Biologists still know like very little about how the whole thing works. Phil, hit us with a scoreboard update. We have two questions left.

We do. We have Corinne Schneider with one point. Phil with two points and then tied for third place. We have Brad, Brandon, and Sean all with three points. Tied for second place,

we have Brody and Steve and in first place, Giannis Petelis. How many? Six points. Six points. We've been here before. How many questions we got? Two more?

Two questions left. Oh, boy. The topic is cooking. Oh, Gianni. Gianni's a pretty good cook. Spoon University said Mexico's most popular sandwich is best described as if a taco and hoagie got married and had a baby.

What is it? Again, Spoon University said Mexico's most popular sandwich is best described as if a taco and hoagie got married and had a baby. What is it? Giannis, you seemed confident. Yeah, he goes to that taco truck all the time. Which taco truck truck you like? They don't have it there anymore.

I don't know where they moved to. That red one that was in front of the group on. Oh, yeah, I saw it the other day. There's one on 7th. It's on 7th. They moved it over to 7th. The Belgrade Taco Bus. Those do a good business.

Top notch. Brody, how are you feeling about this one? Not great, but I think I have a shot. Steve, how are you feeling about this one? Not great, but I think I have a shot. Steve, how are you feeling about this one? Man, I ate one not long ago. Yeah, you did. But I can't remember what it's called. I mean, I kind of got it.

It just feels so lean that he's feeling it. I can't even tell you what meat you had on that. Mountain goat. Yeah. That's going to give a lot of tips. One more time. This is Mexico's most popular sandwich and it's best described as if a taco and hoagie got married and had a baby. I'm writing my letters so you can't really tell what they say.

So I can argue a variety of things here, man. Does everybody have an answer? Steve has scribbled. He has erased. He's thought of something else. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying, what does it say? Say it in the mic.

I think it's something like sopas, but I had to topas. Sopas. Brandon saying chalupa. Brad saying chalupa. Brody saying torta. Corinne saying burro. Phil saying a peanut butter and jelly. And Giannis saying a torta.

The correct answer is torta. All right, Giannis. There's no catching him now. If you want a great recipe- Did you get it right, bro? I got it right. Oh, so you could catch him. I could.

I hope you catch him. If you want a great recipe for a torta, we actually have two of them on TheMeatEater.com. There is a mountain goat torta from Chef Kevin Gillespie that uses pinto beans- Which can be made with any meat on the planet. Avocado and queso, and a fish torta from Chef Lucas Leaf that uses refried beans, pickled jalapenos, and chipotle mayo. Now, I'll give you a hot tip. Let's hear it.

When making those refried beans, you should never buy refried beans. You buy the pinto beans, get some bear oil or oil. We hadn't used bear oil, which is cool. Nothing tastes different. And then just mash your own beans up in your own oil. It's so much better. It's so easy.

Yeah, and both of those recipes explain how to do that in detail. It's easy. I can't win, so I'm done. On to question 10. We have Brody and Giannis left. Now, what we need to happen to go to overtime is for Giannis to get it wrong and Brody to get it right.

Is that right? That's correct. The topic is hunting. How many career wins? Oh, boy. Oh, Giannis only got two career wins? Giannis didn't really start playing until a few weeks ago. I'm kind of pulling for Giannis because Brody's like my nemesis and everything.

According to Boone and Crockett, America's top 10 biggest Canada moose were all killed in two states. Name one of them. Say it again. According to Boone and Crockett, America's top 10 biggest Canada moose were all killed in two states. Name one of them. Easy, easy, easy, easy, easy. Giannis, how you feeling? You were saying that?

You were saying that? You were all the way back there in third place. Giannis, how you feeling? Pretty good. Pretty good. We need him to feel worse than that. Brody, how you feeling? Pretty good. Pretty good. We need him to feel worse than that. Brody, how you feeling? Well, I'm confused by the question.

There's nothing confusing about the question. That's weird. I'm confused that you're confused. That's easy for you to say because you're not going to win anyway. I'll read it one more time, Brody. According to Boone and Crockett, America's top ten biggest Canada moose, were all killed in two states. It was me not listening again. Name one of them.

Does everybody have an answer? Can I look at a map? A lot of writing from Brody. When you read my answer, can you say competing for second place? Okay. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Competing for second place, Steve says Maine. Sean says Alaska. Brandon says Maine. Sean says Alaska.

Brandon says Alaska. Brad says Alaska. Brody says Montana. That's Shires. Corinne says North Dakota. Phil says Alaska. Yukon. And Giannis says Maine.

He's right. The correct answer is Minnesota and Maine. So Giannis wins. Well done, Giannis. What'd you get, eight correct? Wow. I don't know. That was an authoritative victory. Yeah.

I just read a thing about how they, in a portion of Montana, they were confused as to whether the moose were Shire's moose or Canada moose, like the ones up in northeastern Montana. Wow. Good job, Giannis. Giannis' third career win. Thank you. Thank you. Well done. Don't forget, I want a picture with the

trophy and as I'm taking Steve's little peg out and putting mine in. I want to give it to Howell.org. Howell.org. What do you like about Howell? I just feel like they, in the world right now where we're getting hammered by so much anti-hunting stuff, those guys seem to have really simplified, like, hey, here's what's going on,

and here's how you can help out very easily. I even will take the time, not always, but sometimes just follow the few clicks and links and go and, you know, send the letter to whoever they're wanting you to send it for. But it's just very simple and easy to follow along with, you know, the things that are, you know, coming against the hunting community. So it's a nonprofit called Howl. Yeah. Now, Giannis, you have really diversified your winning. I think every time you've won, you've given to Howl. Yeah. Now, Giannis, you have really diversified your winning. I think every time you've won, you've given to

somebody else. Yeah. Is that bad? No, that's great. Keep it up. Congratulations, Giannis. Well done. Well done.

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, Giannis Patelis. Two away from the perfect game. Brandon, Brad, Phil, thank you guys for joining us.

Next time, we'll have more meat eater trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. If I had remembered fiddlehead, would it be a showdown right now? I can't remember how bad I lost. He's still a little lost. Oh, no.

That's how I lost fair and square. I lost fair and square. Hey, folks. OnX Hunt Hunt is now in Canada. It is now at your fingertips, you Canadians.
