Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer North, and today we're joined by special guest Chris Parrish. In addition to Chris, we also have Steve, Brody, Sean, Corinne, Gabby, and Logan Dove.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Now, Chris, how do you feel about trivia? I'm usually not very good at it. Not very good? I think it's going to do good, though. In like Jeopardy, you're not very good. Trivial Pursuit, you're not very good at it. Not very good? I think it's going to do good, though. In like Jeopardy, you're not very good. Trivial Pursuit, you're not very good. What kind of trivia do you consider? I've only played those ones that are sitting on the table at a bar.
Starting point is 00:01:33 This is unique. I think you've got a better chance here. And Logan, I don't believe you've been on the show before, so tell folks what you do here at MeatEater. Yeah, so I work on the digital product team. I help manage the website operations for stuff that comes on the website and just developing features around that. We asked Byron that same question and we still didn't know what he did after he answered. Now, if you're not familiar,
Starting point is 00:01:56 this is a 10-round quiz show with questions from MeatEater's four verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. And there is a prize. MeatEater will donate $500 to the conservation organization of the winner's choosing. And for the stat of the week this week, we're specifically looking at guest performance. This is data compiled by taking every guest's score from Cam Haynes to Jim Heffelfinger to Michael Waddell and everyone in between. Our best performing guests have been Tucker Carlson, Brent West, Dustin Huff, and Andrew Zimmern, who each got five correct answers. And on average, Huff won with five?
Starting point is 00:02:38 He won with five. He went to overtime, and then he won it that way. That was a tough round. Tough round. And on average, our guests get 3.47 correct answers. So that's what you're going for today, Chris, is to beat 3.47. Their best category is cooking, where
Starting point is 00:02:53 they get 42% of answers correct, which is about the equivalent of Seth, who gets 41% of cooking questions right. And their worst category is hunting, where they get 28% of answers correct, which is about the equivalent to Corinne, who gets 29% of hunting questions right.
Starting point is 00:03:12 That's kind of a savage stat, I'm not going to lie. Thanks for that, Spencer. So our guests do best in cooking and worst in hunting. Now, in a previous game of trivia, I asked the room what animal lays the biggest egg. The correct answer was ostrich, but a handful of folks wrote in to say that whale sharks actually produce eggs that are twice the size as ostrich eggs.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Remember I was kind of complaining about that? Remember my answer? Yeah. But here's the catch. Whale sharks don't lay eggs like bass or catfish or trout. Instead, whale shark eggs hatch inside the mother's body which makes them ovoviviparous so they've never actually laid an egg now if the question was what animal produces the largest egg the answer would be whale shark
Starting point is 00:03:58 but since the question was what animal lays the largest egg the answer was ostrich i like that this is why now and then when you're bitching all the time, you miss stuff. I like that clarification. See, that's good. You've been new-hearthed. You're new-hearthed. Also in a previous game of trivia, Steve declared himself the silent killer.
Starting point is 00:04:20 But a listener wrote in and said that instead of the silent killer, it should be the silence killer because he never shuts up. We should create a silencer named like the Steve-O or something. There we go. So it's not the silent killer anymore. It's the silence killer. And with that, we're on to trivia.
Starting point is 00:04:43 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. This will be multiple choice, and the topic is woodsmanship.
Starting point is 00:05:08 What outdoor activity accounts for the most lightning strike victims? Is it fishing, hiking, camping, or horseback riding? Again, what outdoor activity accounts for the most lightning strike victims? Your choices are fishing, hiking, camping, or horseback riding. Some quick, confident answers in the room. From who? I saw you write pretty quickly. I thought I saw to my right here people writing pretty quickly.
Starting point is 00:05:40 You look like Brody that's hemming and hawing. Oh, he's erasing. My marker doesn't work. Oh, no. Again, your choices are fishing, hiking, camping, or horseback riding for which outdoor activity accounts for the most lightning strike victims? You know, I don't want to break the silence here, but... Please.
Starting point is 00:06:04 You need a shattering sound effect I don't really like my pen Yeah? You want a new one as well? No, just in general No, no, no The style The style
Starting point is 00:06:11 The caps come off too easy Corinne, can we get new whiteboards, you think? Yeah, sure We got the budget for that? Yeah Does everybody have an answer? So petty Go ahead and reveal your answers
Starting point is 00:06:20 We have Steve saying camping Chris saying fishing Logan saying hiking Brody saying fishing Sean saying camping Gab Steve saying camping Chris saying fishing Logan saying hiking Brody saying fishing Sean saying camping Gabby saying camping and Corinne saying fishing The correct answer is fishing. Ah damn it. What Brody right? According to data from the National Lightning Safety Council Anglers are the highest risk group for lightning strikes.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Of lightning strike victims doing a leisure activity, about 15% are fishing, 8% are camping, 4% are hiking, and 2% are horseback riding. Read the question again. What outdoor activity accounts for the most lightning strike victims? Okay. I think you just screwed up for real this time. Uh-oh. What's wrong?
Starting point is 00:07:03 I think so too. You're answering it as percentages. You're not answering it as total incidents. You didn't ask percent. You didn't say rate of. No, it is not. It is not the same thing. Way different. No, it's like we had a thousand lightnings totally with Steve on this.
Starting point is 00:07:17 What outdoor activity accounts for the most lightning strike victims? It would be like we had a thousand samples. No, you are just wrong. Okay. You are giving. 50, you are just wrong. Okay. You are giving. 50% is the number one. That's the top percentage. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:07:30 It would be total number. Because if there's 10 million campers and only one fisherman. Not the highest rate. No, no, no. It's not percent of lightning strike. No, if you didn't say percent, what outdoor activity accounts for the most lightning strike victims? It would be fishermen. No, you need to go total incidence.
Starting point is 00:07:49 You did not give it at rate. If you'd have given it at rate, I would absolutely have said fishing. I promise you this is correct because it's like if they took a thousand... Ask him. He's a scientist. Follow the science. Let's talk this out. Don't ever call me that again. They had a thousand lightning strike victims and 15% of them were fishermen.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Then they were the most struck group by lightning. No. You need to tell me. That outdoor activity. You need to put an asterisk here because listen to me. You need to tell me. I love this question. How many.
Starting point is 00:08:19 We have 60 more seconds to argue this point. How many victims does camping produce? How many victims does camping produce? How many victims does fishing produce? It does not matter about rate of incident among user group. How many raw numbers... I'm not saying among user group. I'm saying of lightning strike victims, 15% of lightning
Starting point is 00:08:37 strike victims are fishermen. And then you have 8% of lightning strike victims are campers, 4% are hikers, and 2% are horseback riders. Bill, edit that all wrong. Moving on. You guys truly are a family here. Took a long time to get there, but we got there.
Starting point is 00:08:53 I love it. We good? Wow, that only took about 30 seconds. It's not 15% of anglers are struck by lightning. It's 15% of people that are struck by lightning are anglers well i wasn't listening question two the topic is conservation and this is our listener question of the week which was won by george edson for sending this great question george is going to get a meat eater spice kit and a meat eater hat signed by steve if you want a chance to win the listener
Starting point is 00:09:23 question of the week send your question to trivia at the meat eater. signed by Steve. If you want a chance to win the listener question of the week, send your question to trivia at themeateater.com. Name the state with either the most or least bald eagles. So you can name one of two states here. I'm looking for the state with either the most bald eagles or the state with the least bald eagles. Very quick answers in the room. Again, name the state with either the most or least bald eagles? Very quick answers in the room. Again, name the state with either the most or least bald eagles. Chris, you think you know this one?
Starting point is 00:09:51 I'm not confident. Oh, is this like the little bone you throw people? Right. This is the one. This is the bone. You ever throw me a bone? Ten of them each week. Every mountain man question that comes along.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Does everybody have an answer? Yeah. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Alaska. Chris saying Alaska. Logan saying Florida. Brody saying Alaska. Sean saying Alaska.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Gabby saying Alaska. Gabby saying Hawaii. That was a very good answer. And Corinne saying Florida. The state with the most bald eagles is Alaska, and the state with the least bald eagles is Hawaii. and the state with the least bald eagles is Hawaii. That was a great call. What did you put down, Brody?
Starting point is 00:10:30 Alaska. There are 30,000 bald eagles in Alaska, while there are none in Hawaii. After Alaska, the states with the most bald eagles are Wisconsin, Florida, and Virginia. Logan, we were close. They got any big raptors in Hawaii? Round to question three. Not that I'm aware of. I should always qualify at that because anytime I'm dubbed as an expert,
Starting point is 00:10:52 I just say, nah, not really. I have experts on our team, though. Question three. The topic is cooking. That's Steve's motto as well. He's not an expert, but he hires experts like me at the job. Question three. The topic is cooking.
Starting point is 00:11:04 The Illinois Department of Natural Resources rebranded this fish as Kopi in an effort to get more people to eat them. Looking for what the fish used to be known as, and I'm going to ask you to be specific. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources rebranded this fish as Kopi in an effort to get more people to eat them. Kopi. It is C-O-P-I. Very quick answer from Brody. I think it's two for two. I just read this article the other day.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Son of a bitch. It's a hint. Dang it. You know how they call, they like to call chum salmon, Keta salmon now? Whole foods? It's like that kind of thing. Oh, that's bullshit. How do you spell Keta?
Starting point is 00:11:51 It's a Linnaean name. It's on, what's that? How do you say that? On current. On current. It's like Corinthians. Yeah. On current is Keta.
Starting point is 00:12:00 And so whole or dog salmon, but whole foods sells it as Keta salmon because no one wants to buy dog salmon. Does everybody have an answer for what a Kopi is? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying silver carp. Chris saying carp. Logan saying carp. Brody saying silver carp.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Sean without an answer. Gabby saying snakehead. And Corinne saying snakehead. The correct answers, which there are multiple of, would be Asian carp, silver carp, bighead carp, black carp, or grass carp. I am not going to accept carp. That's right. For just writing down carp. What about a half a point?
Starting point is 00:12:33 No. It sure isn't the common carp. That's why, Logan. The room did fairly well. Question four. The topic is conservation. This next great question comes to us from Mary Kordsmeyer. If you have a question you think is right for MeatEater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at themeateater.com. The devil's hole pupfish, which is considered
Starting point is 00:12:58 one of the rarest fish in the world, is only found in one national park what is it the devil's hole fish which is considered to be one of the rarest fish in the world is only found in one national park what is it i might be wrong though i gotta think i need about 10 minutes give me about 10 minutes a quick answer from Brody, but... But now I'm questioning it, because I think it might be another one. We are looking for the national park where the devil's hole pupfish lives.
Starting point is 00:13:36 Son of a... Mother scratcher. Does everybody have an answer? For that cow call, Steve, I'll let you cheat. You know this one, Chris? I'm not sure I do. I'm not sure. That was pretty good.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Oh, you got it in your mouth. That's why I said that. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We got Steve saying Zion. Chris saying Death Valley. Logan saying Everglade. Brody saying Death Valley. Sean saying Yellowstone. Gabby saying The One in Alaska. And Corinne saying Death Valley. Logan saying Everglade. Brody saying Death Valley. Sean saying Yellowstone.
Starting point is 00:14:05 Gabby saying The One in Alaska. And Corinne saying Grand Canyon. We have a correct answer in the room, and it is Death Valley. Ah! Damn it! Brody, well done. God, Brody's kicking my ass. I think they, didn't they nail someone for messing with those fish recently?
Starting point is 00:14:22 Partying in there? Yeah. Well, and your emphasis, what led me is your emphasis that the devil's pupfish. Well, where would the devil live but in the hottest places? The devil's hole pupfish was discovered in the 1930s, which caused biologists to campaign for their protection. It was granted in 1952 when the devil's hole cavern became part of the Death Valley National Park. As of 2022, there were 175 Devil's Hole pupfish, which is their highest population in 20 years. You know when a sports team starts doing real good,
Starting point is 00:14:55 everybody in that town starts liking that sports team? A bandwagon, yeah, fairweather fans. I need to get to this where I root for Brody. You can be a Brody fairweather fan. I root for youdy. You can be a Brody Fairweather fan. I root for you. I believe it. I don't. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:11 We're on question five. We'll get a scoreboard update from Phil after this. The topic is fishing. What is the more common name for Didymo, a highly invasive species that's often spread by anglers? What is the more common name for Didymo, a highly invasive species that's often spread by anglers? Again, we have a confident Brody. Yeah, almost all of the questions you've read so far, Brody has had an answer on his board before you finished reading it. This last one I got a lot of personal experience with.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Oh, another heavy hint. Well. Yeah, it is. Actually. He feels bad. He feels bad for the room. Doesn't want to run away with it. Again, looking for the more common name for Didymo. That is spelled D-I-D
Starting point is 00:16:00 Y-M-O. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying rock snot. Chris saying zebra mussels. Logan saying mussels. Brody saying rock snot. Sean saying zebra mussels.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Gabby saying mussels. And Corinne saying green mussels. The correct answer is rock snot. Oh, what I was so worried about is you're going to want a better name than that. That can't be what that shit's called. If carp doesn't qualify and rock snot does, I'm going to... What is rock snot?
Starting point is 00:16:34 Didymo is like a shortened version, I think, of its Linnaean name. And then rock snot is what it's more commonly referred to if you were to see a sign like stop the spread of rock snot. Did it's more commonly referred to if you were to see a sign like, stop the spread of rock snot. Yeah, I know. Didymo is native to parts of Europe, Asia, and North America.
Starting point is 00:16:50 But because it's now so widespread, it's difficult for biologists to actually determine where it belongs and where it doesn't. Some negatives of Didymo is that it can alter spawning habitat, clog water intakes, and foul fishing gear. If you see where certain areas, like in Alaska, they don't want you to wear felt-soled waders, that's what they're getting at. Now, Brody, what's all your experience with rock snout? Oh, it's just on, when I was a fly fishing guy,
Starting point is 00:17:16 like this time of year, July, August, when the water gets warm, that shit would start blooming everywhere. When Brody blurted that tip, it almost threw me off. He used to fish a lot of northerns in a lake where northerns got illegally introduced. And so I was like, oh, no, but he also was a fishing guide. That was on the news here this morning. Rocks not?
Starting point is 00:17:38 Northerns. Oh, yeah. Yeah. No problem. But I was like, if someone called a northern a diddy moe, I would have heard it. Phil, hit us with a scoreboard update. We are halfway through the game of trivia. That's right.
Starting point is 00:17:48 We have Logan, who has yet to make an impression on the scoreboard. That's a nice way to put it. I'm trying to think of nice ways to put it. That's good. Then we have Sean, Gabby, and Corinne, all with one point apiece. Steve and Chris have three points, and in first place with five points, and a perfect game so far is Brody Henderson. He's crushing it.
Starting point is 00:18:07 Brody. A heater never before seen in meat eater trivia. I don't want something bad to happen. Bad, bad Brody, but just get kicked by a mule where he's a little off. I heard you guys are going on a trip together here. We're going to be suspicious if Brody doesn't
Starting point is 00:18:23 come back in one piece. I just want him to get a little off. Didn't you just say that you were trying to root for him? Sometimes very good sports athletes, instead of retiring when they're at the top, they drag their career on too long. I think I'm just going to retire.
Starting point is 00:18:39 I thought you were going to say that that might be me. Oh, no. So Brody would be... I'm forgetting your name, but I was going to bring up the Tanya Harding situation. You kind of want something like that. Nancy Kerrigan. Yeah, Nancy Kerrigan. That's right.
Starting point is 00:18:51 Yeah. Hey, folks. Exciting news for those who live or hunt in Canada. And boy, my goodness, do we hear from the Canadians whenever we do a raffle or a sweepstakes. And our raffle and sweepstakes law makes it that they can't join. Whew. Our northern brothers get irritated. Well, if you're sick of, you know, sucking high and titty there, OnX is now in Canada.

We're on to question six. The topic is hunting. This next great question comes to us from Sean Doherty. If you have a question you think is right for MeatEater Trivia,
Starting point is 00:20:40 you can send it to trivia at TheMeatEater.com. What is the only state where you can hunt Columbia blacktail, Columbia whitetail, whitetail, and mule deer? Again, the topic is hunting. What is the only state where you can hunt Columbia blacktail, Columbia whitetail, whitetail, and mule deer? Again, a very quick answer from Brody Henderson. Well, you're just not looking over my way.
Starting point is 00:21:10 You had a quick answer as well? Steve was faster than me on that one. Oh, wow. This little Brody Fest is getting a little ridiculous. I followed his hand motions. You can tell by my hand motions what I wrote? Oh, yeah. One more time.
Starting point is 00:21:26 He's looking for a mirror. The four deer that you can hunt in this state, and it's the only state where you can do it. Columbia blacktail, Columbia whitetail, whitetail, and mule deer. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Washington. Chris saying Oregon. Logan saying Oregon, Brody saying Oregon, Sean saying Washington,
Starting point is 00:21:48 Gabby saying Washington, and Corinne saying Washington. The correct answer is Oregon. Yes! My scoreboard. Although these four species are also found in Washington, you can't
Starting point is 00:22:04 hunt Columbia whitetail deer there. Columbia whitet species are also found in Washington, you can't hunt Columbia whitetail deer there. Columbia whitetails are also heavily protected in Oregon, but there is a controlled hunt that takes place in the Roseburg herd. So the room did very well, and if they didn't get it right, they had the second best answer. There's some serious taxonomic splitting going on in Oregon. Right. Question seven. Brody may have ran away with it at this point, but we're going to score Oregon. Right. Question seven. Brody may have ran away with it at this point, but we're going to scoreboard update and ask him.
Starting point is 00:22:30 The topic is woodsmanship. If you're in the Hoosier National Forest and hiking towards the Star Polaris, then what direction are you headed? If you're in the Hoosier National Forest and hiking towards the Star Polaris, then what direction are you headed? If you're in the Hoosier National Forest and hiking towards the star Polaris, then what direction are you headed? That's the stupidest question I've ever heard.
Starting point is 00:22:52 Okay. Spencer has had, the last few games, he's had one question on each game. That's just like him. That's the kind of a trick question. Is this supposed to be the trick question? No, it's just a the kind of trick question? Is this supposed to be the trick question? No, it's just a regular old question.
Starting point is 00:23:06 You're in the Hoosier. That, uh... What matter? If you're good at woodsmanship, you'll get it right. Let's cut the chatter. I don't mind criticizing them, but I don't like any kind of...
Starting point is 00:23:15 Who knows? Wait, read it one more time. If you're in the Hoosier National Forest and hiking towards the Star Polaris, then what direction are you headed?
Starting point is 00:23:30 Does everybody have an answer to this stupid question? I never said it was stupid. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying north, Chris saying north, Logan saying east, Brody saying north, Sean saying north, Gabby saying north, and Corinne saying west. Logan saying East. Brody saying North. Sean saying North. Gabby saying North. And Corinne saying West.
Starting point is 00:23:48 The correct answer is North. Doesn't matter where you're standing. Exactly. If you're anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere. Well, Polaris. That's what makes a good question. Polaris is more commonly known. It's not North. Polaris is more commonly known as the North
Starting point is 00:24:02 Star and since the Hoosier National Forest of Indiana Is located in the Northern Hemisphere Then if you walk towards Polaris You're headed north So it's north for everybody in the Northern Hemisphere That's why I said the Hoosier National Forest I don't see anyone here that's in the Southern Hemisphere
Starting point is 00:24:18 Currently I know I've come around to quite liking that question Not everybody got it right. It's one of those ones you might overthink. I'll tell you, you know what you ought to throw in? What's that? That in the Northern Hemisphere, it's the only star that appears fixed in the sky.
Starting point is 00:24:34 I like it. It's the only star that doesn't change its position throughout the course of the North. For like 26,000 years, I think. Which one points at it? The Big Dipper? If you go to the Big Dipper, if you go to the outside of the cup of the Big Dipper and go the direction that that cup, like, you go
Starting point is 00:24:50 away from the cup and you count seven spacings of the outer two stars that will hit Polaris. There we go. Polaris might be, isn't that the last star on the handle of the Little Dipper as well? It might be. I thought it was part of one of the little dipper as well? It might be.
Starting point is 00:25:05 I thought it was part of one of the dippers, but I don't know which. We're on to question eight, and we'll get a scoreboard update after this. The topic is conservation, and this next great question comes to us via Ryan Winchester. If you have a question you think is right for MeatEater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at themeateater.com. There are 215 species of darter in North America, and four of them are named after U.S. presidents. Name one of those presidents. There are 215 species of darter in North America, and four of them are named after U.S. presidents. Name one of those presidents.
Starting point is 00:25:45 A stumped room so far. That's a darter. Not going to help you. 215 species of darter and four are named after presidents. Just looking for one of those presidents. Dude, I love this new call. Sounds good. The easy sucker. It's unbelievable, man.
Starting point is 00:26:07 You're going to be breaking that out with your super-duper bull tag? This is the only one you'll take in there. I like and joy, as you can tell, the easy sucker. Yeah, and you can multitask while you're using it. That's how little thought you have to put into using that thing. Those bulls will have never heard that call before in their lives. Unless they listen to this show. Does everybody have an answer?
Starting point is 00:26:30 Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Lincoln. Chris saying Roosevelt. Logan saying Roosevelt. Brody saying Roosevelt. Sean saying Washington. Gabby saying Roosevelt. And Corinne saying Nixon.
Starting point is 00:26:44 I like Nixon. Nixon was actually a damn good conservation president. I was actually going to give a throwaway one and say Trump as well. Nixon, the Nixon darter. The four presidents are Theodore Roosevelt, Jimmy Carter,
Starting point is 00:27:00 Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama. I thought you had it. Brody is playing a perfect game. Carter, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama. Brody is playing a perfect game. Perfect game. And I don't see him tripping up on these last two. Now, the professor and biologist who discovered these four species in 2012 decided to name them after leaders who they said best promoted conservation and environmental protection. They also discovered a fifth darter, which they named after former Vice President Al Gore.
Starting point is 00:27:31 Phil, give us a scoreboard update. Oh, it's down to two players, because our esteemed guest, Chris Parrish, has six points. Wow! He's already broken the record. That's right. He's still in the running. He's in the running, because Brody has eight, Chris has six.
Starting point is 00:27:46 So if Brody does trip up... How many does Steve have? Steve has four. For those of you at home... For those of you at home rooting for me... It ain't looking good. All two of you. Chris, very impressive. Even if you get these last two wrong,
Starting point is 00:28:01 you've already done it. There you go. But you think Brody's not going to stumble. I don't see a spot for him to mess up here. Question nine. The topic is hunting. How many measurements are taken when scoring a bear skull? How many measurements are taken when scoring a bear skull? And this goes by any book.
Starting point is 00:28:23 It's the Boone and Crockett book, the Pope and Young book, they take the same amount of measurements when scoring a bear skull. Brody, are you going to get this one wrong? I'm so depressed. Because, you know, I'll start. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying two, Chris saying three, Logan saying five, Brody saying two, Sean saying two, Gabby saying one, and Corinne saying nine.
Starting point is 00:28:54 The correct answer is two. To score a bear skull, you measure the length and width and add those numbers together. Do we keep playing them until Brody won? We got to keep playing. We got to keep stats on total numbers. He might get to do a thousand bucks. That's right. If you want to learn how to do this without a calipers,
Starting point is 00:29:12 then watch Clay Newcomb's video on TheMeatDealer.com called How to Score a Bear Skull. The last question, all that's left to play for here is if Brody gets to double the donation from $500 to $1,000 and it would be the first time that's ever happened. I want to get one of them lion machines. A polygraph to make sure that there's not like a little
Starting point is 00:29:36 thing going on. I don't have an earpiece in or anything. No one's feeding me stuff. Well, listen, they've been fed. To Phil. No. He gave Corinne all the answers, so we know that it's like a thing on his mind.
Starting point is 00:29:51 That's right. That's right. He's not morally uncorruptible. Yeah, he's like, he'll do it. No one will argue. The last question. The topic is fishing. What state is home to the world's largest noodling competition?
Starting point is 00:30:13 What state is home to the world's largest noodling competition? Brody without an answer yet. Looking for the state home to the world's largest noodling competition. Brody, how we doing over there? I don't know, but like a couple of years ago, my wife and I watched a documentary on Amazon about noodling, and I think it might have been in there. Wow. Does everybody have an answer? That's one of those things where age does help. Like you watch
Starting point is 00:30:48 enough of the documentaries and stuff Brody pulls one random thing out. Yeah, but I'd want to have an age showdown between Chris and Brody. Because age is a valuable, valuable tool in this game. Yeah. Not with arthritis, but Go ahead
Starting point is 00:31:04 and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Missouri, Chris saying Oklahoma, Logan saying Kentucky, Brody saying Oklahoma, Sean saying Oklahoma, Gabby saying Oklahoma, and Corinne saying Mississippi. The correct answer is Oklahoma. Oh my god, a perfect
Starting point is 00:31:20 game! Ten correct answers and the perfect game. Holy shit, he did the undoable. One around. And the next closest, I believe, was Chris, who got seven. Chris had a great game.
Starting point is 00:31:34 He had a perfect game. Just pull him out. It's almost uncanny how he does. Uncanny how he does that. I don't like where you're going with that. Real suspicious. Questioning my integrity. We'll remind the audience again, these two are about to go to Alaska together.
Starting point is 00:31:48 They're going to be in a very remote place. He's going to send me to all the shitty fishing spots. Brody's going to come back and people are going to be like, he's just a little off. Yeah. He's just a little off. If he sees Steve holding a tire iron, he's not changing his tire. So Brody, I got to find out how long you got to hold someone underwater before they get a little oxygen deprivation. No one really knows.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Maybe his wife would notice and his trivia score would go down. You could start off your- That level of damage. You could start off your human toxicity of lead. Yeah. That's a good idea. That's right. So, Brody.
Starting point is 00:32:21 Just little drips into his drink. I think we're going to paint some of the walls. It's sweet pepper. It's sweet pepper. The $1,000, where's it going to go? Well, I've been wanting to do something for kids. So, I think let's do that catch a dream thing where they send kids with terminal diseases on hunting and fishing trips. Who could argue with that one? And he's a good guy to boot.
Starting point is 00:32:46 Real good guy. Well, it's not his money. Seems like if you think about it. One more time, Brody. Where's the money going? It's called Catch a Dream. Catch a Dream. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Well done. Brody, congratulations on a perfect game. Thank you. You've been flirting with it? Some say you got it in the past. Who's to say? Who's to say? There's no record of it. It was a perfect game. Thank you. You've been flirting with it? Some say you got it in the past. Who's to say? Who's to say? There's no record of it.
Starting point is 00:33:08 But wasn't it like a contested? He felt that he did? It was a straight 10 for 10 he got. But he's never done it before? No. He did it once before, but it was before we had the $1,000 donation. I think we were in the $100 donation. Yeah, it was way back when.
Starting point is 00:33:21 So he's had two perfect games? Two perfect games. We've played about 20 games of trivia, so that's going to be a new stat. 10% of the time, Brody gets a perfect game. Yeah, I should just retire now. Chris, thank you for playing. Join us next
