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 Stephen Rinella, Seth Morris, Chester Floyd, Sean Weaver, Corinne Schneider, Corey Calkins, and special guest and Black

Rifle Coffee Company founder, Evan Hafer. Evan, this is your first time playing. How do you feel about trivia? I feel great about it. Do you? Yep. Yeah, yeah. I mean, not necessarily this one, but just trivia in general. I have a

positive outlook on it. Well, if you like general trivia, and you're someone who likes... He has a positive outlook on questions. If you're someone who likes trivia, and you also like hunting and fishing, then I think you'll do okay. Eh, we'll see. Alright. Steve, you've kind of sussed him out by now. How do you think he's going to perform? He,

um, he's playing it. He's trying to do, like, the I don't really care, it'll just be fun kind of sussed him out by now. How do you think he's going to perform? He's playing it. He's trying to do like the I don't really care, it'll just be fun kind of thing. So he's trying to downplay. I told him about getting thrown a bone. He seemed to actually not like getting thrown a bone. Okay. So you might want to cut that out.

Maybe it's a difficult question. So not really a bone we'll see okay is that a reality are you kind of downplaying um like your passion about winning uh no i'm very passionate about winning i'm just not confident i'm going to win so i don't know if i'm downplaying it i'm just more of a realist now if you're not familiar this is a 10 round quiz show with questions from meat eaters for Verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. And there's a prize.

Meat Eater will donate $500 to the conservation organization of the winner's choosing. In each episode, we reveal a new trivia stat. This week, we're looking at player performance in the hunting category. Although most players get over half of their hunting questions correct, Brody leads the group with a 79% average. That's followed by Hayden, who gets 77% of hunting questions right. Chester was 63, Sean with 58, Steve with 55, and Giannis with 53. There's no way that's true.

There's no way that's true. We have very thorough stat keeping. Hunting is our second most popular category in trivia, only behind conservation. So that's where Brody makes up his ground on you. He's 20 percentage points better when it comes to hunting questions. The rest of it, you guys are all kind of even. Turns out you don't know much about hunting. I don't, man. Brody knows a lot.

He does. Now we have some housekeeping to get to before we play trivia. On episode 353 of Meat Eater Trivia, I asked what type of bird is a squab? The correct answer was pigeon, but Steve argued I shouldn't accept any answer that isn't rock dove. Play the clip, Phil. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Eurasian rock dove. Andrew saying pigeon. Kevin saying pigeon. There's too many kinds of pigeons. Brody saying pigeon.

Corinne saying quail. Sean saying pigeon. And Byron saying pigeon. What did you say to me beforehand? Don't overthink it? That was your advice to me. The correct answer is pigeon. They're the same bird.

Which is? They're the same bird. Eurasian rock dove. We'll give it to you. But you can't give it to them. Yes, they get that. There's too many kinds of pigeons. The dictionary says it's an immature pigeon.

I'm now handing Steve a copy of his own New York Times bestseller. Where I have it right. The Meat Eater Fish and Game Cookbook. Steve, please turn to page 166 and read the section I've highlighted. It says, also works with. So in this book. No. Okay.

In this book, here's the problem with wild game cooking. You could say something like, hey, here's a great way to cook deer heart. And then people would be like, well, do you have any way to cook elk heart? Right? No difference. So the also works with section would kind of give you a little heads up. So this recipe we're looking at here is grilled grouse with cayenne butter. And I point out, also works with section. We'll kind of give you a little heads up. Yeah. So this recipe we're looking at here is grilled grouse with cayenne butter. And I point out also works with any white fleshed game bird up to the size of a pheasant and also squab.

Then there's a parenthetical. In case you're wondering, a squab is a baby street pigeon. It's true. So there you have it. But that's what I said. No. You were arguing in the trivia that I shouldn't accept anything less than Eurasian rock. It's true. So there you have it. But that's what I said. From the man's own cookbook. No. You were arguing in the trivia that I shouldn't accept anything less than Eurasian rock dog. No, no, no.

I was arguing that you can't just, you don't even know what your argument's about. I argued that you can't just say pigeon. So you would have accepted street pigeon? Absolutely. It's the same species. But not pigeon. Columba livia is his Linnaean name.

Columba, okay, Columba livia is the Eurasian rock dove in Eurasia. It's the common street pigeon in the U.S. I wouldn't accept for instance, the band-tailed pigeon. And if someone just writes pigeon,

I don't know what pigeon you're talking about. Thank you for backing this up with my own damn book. You got Newhart. We're still not on the same page. Newhart got Newhart. Oh, I'm so screwed. We haven't even started playing yet. Welcome to the Thunderdome.

Now the Shelby Index for this episode is a three, so it's a tougher round of questions. And with that, we're on to the game of trivia. Go ahead. Spencer tries the questions out with his wife, who's not particularly a connoisseur of the subject matter, and he'll do an index. And a Shelby Index of three is usually the winner will get about

twice what Shelby gets. Got it. And six would be on the lower end of a winning score. That's a weak win. Oh, okay. Seven would be about average. Eight, you did well. Six means it's a tougher round.

And with that, we're on to the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil. Look, I need to know what I stand to win everything how's that just tend to win everything game on suckers question one the topic is And as always, this will be multiple choice. Which of these measurements is biggest? A quarter cup, four tablespoons, 12 teaspoons, or four fluid ounces? Which of these measurements is biggest? A quarter cup, four tablespoons, 12 teaspoons, or four fluid ounces. Sean, with a quick answer, you think you know this one, Sean?

Nope, just sticking with my gut. Okay. All right, Chester, you're running out of time. How you doing? Got an answer? Yeah. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey Calkins saying a quarter cup, Sean saying four ounces. Seth saying four ounces.

Evan saying a quarter cup. Steve saying four ounces. Corinne saying four ounces. And Chester saying a quarter cup. The correct answer is four fluid ounces. Yeah, in fact, the top three are all synonyms. They are. You're exactly right.

Four fluid ounces is twice as big as all of those other measurements. When converted to tablespoons, a quarter cup and 12 teaspoons are four tablespoons. But four fluid ounces is the equivalent of eight tablespoons. That was a good question. That was a good one. Thank you. Perfect game so far over here, buddy. Question two.

The topic is fishing. This next great question comes to us via Nate Bunker. If you have a question you think is right for MeatEater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at themeateater.com, or you can be like Nate and write me a letter. This is the only trivia question I've received via snail mail. Hey, real quick, who's the guy that's all bent out of shape and is emailing everybody and their brother

about some correction? We'll get to that one in some other episode. We can only do so much housekeeping in an episode. What do you call the distinct layer in a lake that separates warm surface water from cool deep water? The topic is fishing. What do you call the distinct layer in a lake that separates warm surface water from cool deep water?

Seth, you know this one? Yep. Steve, you look like you knew it. Yeah, but if I'm not mistaken, I think she just whispered the answer. No, I didn't. Oh, you didn't? Oh, okay. I was talking to myself about how I didn't know.

Did she whisper the answer, Chester? I do not think so. I didn't hear it. Okay. Maybe it was in my head. Does everybody have an answer? Just hearing things now in trivia. Everybody have an answer?

This is going that hard that it just whispers to you now. I got to take these glasses off. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying sub, Sean saying thermocline, Seth saying thermocline, Evan without an answer, Steve saying thermocline, Corinne without an answer, and Chester saying thermocline. They got it. The correct answer is thermocline. According to fisheries biologist Dave Drevs, these are important areas for anglers to focus on during the heat of the summer. Above the thermocline is often hot water, while below it usually lacks oxygen.

So the thermocline represents a region where fish can benefit from dissolved oxygen levels near the surface, but also be comfortable in cooler waters. Yeah, Spencer, a couple weekends ago I was walleye fishing. Just a side note. You? And the walleye were sitting right on the thermocline. Really? And you can mark it on your electronics. A lot of times you can see that thermocline on your graph.

And do you think they were there out of comfort or because the bait fish were there? Probably comfort because the bait was higher in the column. I think they were sliding up in the evenings. And at a certain time of year, that thermal climb, once it hits a certain temp, will flip. Yeah, inverts. That's called turnover.

That's right. Question three. The topic is hunting. What is the only state that has a whitetail and turkey season in July? Hmm. What is the only state that has a whitetail and turkey season in July? Hmm. What is the only state that has a whitetail and turkey season in July?

Quick answer from Sean. The rest of the room has yet to come up with anything. I'm actually fairly confident. Knock on wood. Only state. I think in July. In July. There's no trickeration here.

It's not like some urban depredation hunt. These are just like a real season for whitetail and a real season for turkey in July. Does everybody have an answer? Well, here's the deal. This one's pretty black and white. I remember something. I still don't know what. That's the thing, Spencer.

There's no whisper this time coming from Corinne. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying Texas. Sean saying Florida. Seth saying Texas. Evan saying Georgia. Steve saying Indiana, Seth saying Texas, Evan saying Georgia, Steve saying Indiana.

What's that say? Indiana? I can't explain. Corinne saying Georgia and Chester saying Texas. We have a correct answer in the room. It's Florida.

Nice. Sean. In 2022... Did you know or did you just write some shit down? No, I knew that. In 2022, parts of know or did you just write some shit down? No, I knew that. Yeah, yeah.

In 2022, parts of Florida had deer and turkey seasons open on July 31st. Florida has some of the longest hunting seasons in the country. Deer can be hunted there from July to February, while the only months without a turkey season are May and June. Help me with something here. What's up? I'm not arguing, contesting, nothing. Not complaining. What was the state that started that velvet season?

Well, Tennessee recently... Specifically to give people a chance to shoot a deer in velvet. Tennessee recently adopted one. I think the next closest early opener is South Carolina. They're like August 15. Tennessee is also in August as of recently, but only in certain areas. It's becoming more sexy for states to give hunters a chance at velvet bucks. There's a lot of places now.

And they even articulated it as though our people want to shoot a buck in velvet. Yeah. Therefore, we'll create an early velvet buck season. Tennessee was a recent one. North Dakota also has one of the earliest. They open like some years, it's like August 30th. So there's a handful of states now that open all the way in August. With what you're talking about, they wouldn't even be, they'd have half-grown antlers.

Well, they have a very diverse group of rutting herds in Florida. Oh, different dates. So that's what you got going on there. Yeah, it's a whole different calendar that those deer are on. And I only know that because a guy that hunts black-bellied whistling ducks down there, him and I were going back and forth and he was sending me pictures of these deer he was going to be hunting the next morning. Yeah, there's a handful.

What are you doing in Florida hunting deer that early? There's a handful of states in the very South that have rutting deer at any point between like July and February. There's some herd that's rutting. I would not want to go down to Florida in July to hunt deer. Be hot. Sounds brutal. Mosquitoes.

Gators. Question four. The topic is foraging. This next great question comes to us via Steven Higgs. If you have a question you think is right for meat eater trivia Trivia, you can send it to trivia at themeateater.com. What branch of the military teaches a foraging... Here's your bone. That's right. What branch of the military teaches a foraging class at the basic school in Quantico, Virginia? A quick answer from Evan. You know this one?

Oh, hide it, hide it. school in Quantico, Virginia. A quick answer from Evan. You know this one? Hide it. I saw it. You can see it. Steve, I think you should leave your answer. I can't change my answer? I think you should leave it. That's what you had. Evan just revealed his answer to half the room. What happens if I saw it?

Did you already write an answer? Nope. You're out. Has Chester got any right yet? You can write anything but what you saw. You do whatever your heart tells you, Chester. I'll trust you. I would say there was a 75, no

50% chance I would have got that right on a guess. Okay. So... See, I'd like to change mine, but no, I can't. But I wouldn't have changed mine. Let's flip a coin. Chester, you do whatever your heart tells you. You have one correct answer so far. Flip, flip, flip. If it's yellow, I will write

what Evan wrote. He's flipping an eraser right now. One side's black, one side's yellow. Give it a healthy flip. Yay! Chester, go ahead and write down your answer. Who knows if that's right? I really want to know what Chester's right.

Who knows if that's right, though? Again, the question is, what branch of the military teaches a foraging class at the basic school in Quantico, Virginia? Everybody have an answer. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying Marines. Sean saying Navy, Seth saying Army, Evan saying Marines, Steve saying Air Force.

Corinne saying Coast Guard. Corinne saying Marines, and Chester saying Marines. The correct answer is the Marines. Dang it. I should have known that. The basic school formally started teaching this class in 2021. The course involves a one-hour lecture on foraging, followed by a four-hour seminar where students butcher pigs,

fillet fish, and cook meat. Did you have anything like that in your training, Evan, where you guys talked about? What would be an example? I mean, I went through three different survival schools. And then in basic training, they do like a little, you know, plant identification. So you're not like sleeping in poison Ivy, but, um, it is it, whether or not you're paying attention or not really is,

it comes out later a couple of months if you can identify poison ivy or not. But survival school, they go through a lot of that. So survival, escape resistance and evasion, that was like in depth. It was super fun too. You think that's beneficial for Marines to be learning how to like butcher pigs and fillet fish? Yeah, I do. I do because I think there's a level of confidence

that you get from being able to, to have those skills, whether or not you utilize them or not, there still is a significant amount of confidence that comes from knowing that you can, if you have to, but, uh, most people never use those skills. Uh, they'll forget about them in 15 minutes after they take the course and they'll probably never utilize them. But if you go on and find yourself in a situation, you'll be at least a little bit more comfortable. Question five, the topic is hunting. What famous six foot two inch hunter admitted in a 2022 Facebook post that he used to be an underwear model? What famous six foot two inch hunter admitted in a 2022 Facebook post that he used to be an underwear model? A quick answer from Seth.

You know this one? I know it. 100%. He's 6'2 tall. What famous hunter admitted in a 2022 Facebook post that he used to be an underwear model. Does anybody besides Seth know this one? I think I do, but I'm not sure. I just can't remember the first name.

I don't know. Can you ask questions about this six-foot-two? Is he only known for hunting? I'm not going to say anymore. Steve doesn't like people asking questions. No? And I'm not going to say any more. Steve doesn't like people asking questions. No? And I'm not 6'2". It's not Yanni.

Yanni's not the answer either. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying Yanis Patelis. Sean saying Jim Shockey. Seth saying Jim Shockey. Evan without an answer. Steve saying Sh Shockey. Evan without an answer. Steve sang Shockey.

Corinne without an answer. And Chester sang Justin Bowman. The correct answer is Jim Shockey. Wow. On July 7, Shockey posted a picture on Facebook of his 1984 modeling headshot. He got paid $50 an hour for regular jobs or $75 an hour for underwear modeling. Shockey said, quote,

Needless to say, with that face, I got a lot of underwear jobs. So there you go. Boy, there's a lot of ways that could go. The great Jim Shockey used to be an underwear model. Phil, we are halfway through the game of trivia. Give us a scoreboard update. Everyone is on the board.

Tied up in the fourth place slot, we have Evan and Corey with one. Chester and Corinne are in third place with two points. Steven Rinella and Seth have three points apiece. And in first place with four points, it's Sean Weaver. Oh, Sean. Have you ever won, Sean? I won the last time I was on. You did?

Yeah. My reward was Chester finally gave me some of that Barracuda meat. That he stole. No, I'm just teasing. No, yeah, I won last time. Already stated that I do have the barracuda in my freezer. Oh, when did you find that? It wasn't really good, actually.

How did you know? I had it the whole time. Steve told me to give that to you, so I took it and put it in my freezer. Okay, so one mystery solved. I already stated that on the podcast. That's not the mystery. Okay. There was a heist here.

A fish heist. A fish heist. A fish heist. The great meat eater fish heist. It's going to be a movie someday. No, we're bringing in a polygraph exam. In your mind, Steve, what do you think happened to that fish? Someone stole it. Like, I'm going to mess with Steve and steal this fish and then not admit to it.

Do you think that's what happened? That is what happened. How do you know? Someone stole the fish and and then not admit to it. Do you think that's what happened? That is what happened. How do you know? Someone stole the fish and they haven't admitted to it. In my head, someone didn't know what they were grabbing and then grabbed it and now don't even know that they did it. Oh, my bad. I thought

that was all of my grouper and staff. I thought that was all my Cobia. I thought that was from my Cobia trip I was on. So there's no confusion. Oh, it's a triple tail, too. I totally forgot that I also caught a nice triple tail. They had a good haul then.

They got all that? Yeah, like high-grade fish, dude. Man. Maybe there's like a black market. Would you like to look at Facebook Marketplace? No. Question six. I'm getting that polygraph

in here. I'm going to find out. I have one. I'll bring it up. Oh, you do? Yeah, I got it for my kids. How's that work? I'm just joking.

Well, somebody in this room has contracts for their children, so it wouldn't surprise me if there was also a polygraph. 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.

If you have a question you think is right for MeatEater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at themeateater.com. The.243 Winchester,.260 Remington, and 7MM08 Remington are offspring of what popular parent case? The.243 Winchester,.260 Remington, and 7MM08 Remington are offspring of what popular parent case? I'm looking for you to name the cartridge that those came from.

No quick answers in the room. Chester, how do you feel about this one Okay You got it That's really confusing man I think I'm alright But that's really confusing All three of those cartridges

The 243 Winchester 260 Remington And 7MM08 Remington Are offspring of what popular parent case? When those were developed, they were developed using the case of this other cartridge, and that is called the parent case.

Evan, you know this one? Nope. But you got a reasonable guess. I mean, I have a guess. Whether or not it's reasonable. Good? Deep in thought over there oh dude i'm struggling man it's how you're classifying the definition of parent case i don't i don't know go ahead and reveal your answers we have cory saying 308 sean saying 270 seth saying 22 250 evan saying 30 cal

steve saying this is their actly yeah grin without without an answer Chester saying 270 We have a correct answer in the room It's the 308 Winchester So that's So that's my point Is like the 308 What parent case So if it's a 308 specific round

And if we're developing it specifically from 30 Cal Which is when I was generalizing. No, they're necking down that case. I understand that. So that's what I'm saying. Are we doing it from 30-06? Are we doing it from 308?

Are we doing it from 762 by? What's the parent? Is it the 30 cal in the sense of 308? It's the size case. Specifically 308 Winchester. No, because the 30-06 case is totally different. I understand that. I'm saying, are we looking at it from 30 cal is like the parent cal?

Oh. That's what I'm saying. Is that the parent case? I would give it to you. That's why I'm saying parent case is 30 cal. That's why I was general. But when you look at the birth of these cartridges, they were all birthed from the 308 case. I would give it to you.

You're going to give me the 30? You're going to give that to him. Because I'm looking at it from the parent. They're not from a case from a 300 Win Mag. I think Evan is in fourth place right now. So we'll give him the correct answer. I'm saying 30 Cal is at the parent

case and not like 30 Cal in general. That's what I'm saying. General. Like 30 Cal. Not 30 Caliper. Who had it right? Corey. Corey. Corey. Corey Calkins gun writer ron spomer described the 308 winchester as one of the hardest working most versatile parent cases with bullet weight spanning from 40 grains to 250 grains the 308 winchester family hunts everything from prairie dogs to moose okay Okay. Question seven. The topic is cooking.

The American version of Hungary's national dish is made with ground meat, elbow macaroni, and tomato paste. What is it? The American version of Hungary's national dish is made with ground meat, elbow macaronis, and tomato paste. What is it? Quick answers from everybody, I think, except Evan. You know this one, Evan?

Sure. You gotta keep it to yourself there, buddy. Come on, man. Chester's still thinking. Corinne, you know this? Mm-hmm. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey's saying goulash. Spelled it wrong.

Goulash. Seth's saying hamburger helper. I can't even read yours. I'm just saying hungry helper is what I had in mind. Steve's saying goulash. Corinne's saying goulash. And Chester's saying hamburger helper. Just erase that.

The correct answer is goulash. Embarrassing. Hungry helper? There's got to be some dude because three of us had amber helper. That's what I was thinking. Hungarian goulash. That's clever though. That's really good.

Hungry helper. Same. My guess. Hungry helper. Hungarian goulash is a soup or stew of meat and vegetables that are heavily seasoned with paprika. The American version usually leaves out the veggies, but adds pasta and cheese. If you want to try the American version, go to TheMeatEater.com and check out Jenny Wheatley's recipe for venison goulash. Or go to Walmart and get some hamburger helper. Hungry helper.

Or hungry helper. That makes sense to me. Is that a staple in your house, Steve? No, but every time the subject... I actually have on my phone, I could prove it if I felt like it, a thing called Things to Make that my kids would like. And every time goulash comes up, I think I'm going to put it in there.

Because I don't think they've had it. They'd love it. Do they like hamburger help? I'll put it in there right now. I ate a lot of goulash. Yeah, I think it's a hungry Iowa thing, I think. Yeah, I feel like it's like my German family ate a lot of goulash. That was, like, a ground meat staple. You want to know what's in here right now?

Yes. On the list of things I need to make for my kids, homemade donuts, which I haven't made in a long time. Biscuits and gravy, which I haven't made in a long time. They've never had that. Crunchwrap Supremes. Oh, that's my specialty. And I just had a goulash. You know what's great is everything you describe,

you can get a recipe for on our website, except for donuts. I don't think we have donuts yet. Well, you buy those tubes of that dough. It's like, well, who makes that stuff? Pillsbury. You whack it on the corner and unravel it. Just take those and cut a hole in them, and then deep fry them, and then put powdered sugar on them.

Oh, kids love it. I think the reason why I didn't get goulash is because everyone in Wisconsin would classify that dish under a casserole or a hot dish. Right. Sure. Hey, you guys in Wisconsin, do you say casserole or hot dish? Most of the time, what do you say? Casserole.

Yeah. Now, what's the parrot dish? Hungry helper. I don't know. Hungry helper probably doesn't sell goulash, but everything they make is a variation of goulash. Yeah, totally. Question eight.

The topic is public lands. This is our listener question of the week, which was won by PJ Sirianni. For sending this great question, PJ is going to get a signed copy of Meat Eater Adventures from the Life of an American Hunter. If you want a chance to win the listener question of the week, then send your question to trivia at themeateater.com. What are public lands called in Canada?

What are public lands called in Canada? This is question eight. We will get a scoreboard update from Phil after this. How's Sean look, Cocky? I did not like seeing him be that happy. A very confident Steve. Very happy. Wrote it down, slammed his board, and then looked in the eyes of Sean to let him know.

I might need to change all my socket bro. He's a socket, Sean. One more time. What are public lands called in Canada? Seth, you look like you knew this. Oh, man. I recently heard it, but I don't know if I'm... I just recently heard it on a podcast or something. Has anybody here haunted Canada?

I assume you have Steve. Sean, I assume you have. I've spent quite a bit of time up there on waterfowl stuff, but that's all private land, man. Does everybody have an answer? What movie am I doing right now? Here's a trivia question for you. Sling Blade.

Sling Blade. Fine, I'm not confident at all. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey without an answer, Sean saying Queensland, Seth saying Royal Lands, Evan saying Moosefield, Steve saying Crown Lands, Corinne saying Allotment, and Chester saying Parks.

I knew it was something like that. Steve got it. The correct answer is Crown Lands. Sean and Seth were close. They were right there. Queen's a goat, Royal Lands. I correct answer is Crownland. Sean and Seth were close. They were right there. Queen's boat. Yeah. Royal Lounge.

I was going something like that. 89% of Canada is Crownland. This is a commonly used moniker in countries with a monarch. Other places with Crownland include Australia, Austria, France, Poland, Spain, Vietnam, Hong Kong, and even Hawaii. Just like in America, these spaces serve a variety of purposes like hunting, fishing, hiking, mining, logging, grazing, and more. Phil, give us a scoreboard update. We have two questions left. Well, that's right. And everyone except for Evan and Chester are still in the game. Good job, Chester. Apologies. Evan and Chester have still in the game. Good job, Chester. Apologies. Evan and Chester have two points apiece.

Corinne, Corey, and Seth all have three points. And then Steve and Sean are tied with five points in first place. We're like at the Shelby Index. It would be a six. So we got two questions left. Question nine. The topic is fishing. What rocky mountain state has a fishing blade named after it that's commonly used on worm harnesses and spinnerbaits?

What rocky mountain state has a fishing blade named after it that's commonly used on worm harnesses and spinnerbaits? Chester, you have to know this. A quick answer from Seth and Sean. Chester, his jaw is on the floor because he can't think of the answer. Steve, how do you feel about this one? Chester does more trolling than anyone in this room. I don't want to tell people my approach. I don't know.

Okay. I don't know. I'm working through it, though. Looking for a Rocky Mountain state. Has a fishing blade named after it. Chet, I know you know it. It's in that brain of yours. It's in there. Listen

for the whisper. It sounds like Corinne. The great Rocky Mountain state of Minnesota. Minnesota. Does everybody have an answer? What the heck? I know I'm going to be really pissed off.

You better just write down a state if you ain't got one. Well, I think if I knew it, it would just... Steve, you got an answer? Well, I mean, I wrote one down, but no, I'm not feeling cocky. Where are you at on this, Sean? You got it. Yeah, about 90% on this one. Which way down there, buddy?

I'm trying to stay on a hot streak here. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We got Corey saying Colorado. Sean saying Colorado. Seth saying Colorado. Evan saying Colorado. Steve saying Colorado. Wow, everyone got it. Everyone says Colorado and they got it. The correct answer is Colorado.

I'm glad you got that, Chester. Colorado blades are more stout than other types of spinners, creating a slower rotation and heavier vibration. According to walleyesupply.com, Colorado blades are their number one selling type of spinner. There are also Idaho blades, which are created by placing a colorado blade on an elongated snap loop you know what you know what i think you messed up what's up just to be frank

okay um i think that you're the reason you got the answer you did is because you said rocky mountain state because that's just not a thing that people say unless they're like john denver fans everybody in this room is thinking oh that's so true no one says like oh uh idaho a rocky mountain state it's like colorado that's a really good brand of that shit, man. But here's why I had to be specific. Indiana has a blade named after it. Ohio has a blade named after it.

Okay, I could easily solve those two for you. West of the Mississippi. West of the Great Bend in the Missouri. Spencer, everything Steve's talking about never entered my mind for a second. It did too. It did, but not because you knew it. You went Rocky Mountain to Rocky Mountain.

So let me ask a technical question. Because of the Idaho, would you have given that? I'd give it to you if you said Idaho. Okay. Because the modification on the Colorado. And I don't think anybody would. There's only one. I think it's Yakima Supply sells Idaho blades. Okay. So it's like not very well

known. But if you did know that and you said Idaho, I'd give it to you. When Steve said, I'm going to tell you. There's a reason everybody put down Colorado. Yeah. When he said, I'm going to tell you my approach, I was like, yeah, he's putting Colorado because it makes sense with Rocky Mountain. So this all comes down to the final question. One more time, Phil.

John Denver, didn't he die crashing? I always confuse him and Sonny Bono dying. One of them died skiing and one of them died flying. He was in an experimental plane. He's full of shit. Well, I mean, it's down to Sean and Steve who have six points apiece. Nobody has five? Nobody has five.

Okay, Sean and Steve. Oh, dude, we could go to a tiebreaker. I gave you a good tiebreaker the other day to try out. We haven't had a tiebreaker in a good long time. Question 10. The topic is deer camp. This lager, which calls itself the official beer of the American sportsmen. Oh, lager.

L-A-G. I thought you said lager. Which calls itself the official beer of the American sportsmen, usually comes in red cans that feature wildlife on them. This lager, which calls itself the official beer of the American sportsman, usually comes in red cans that feature wildlife on them. Fairly confident looking Steve, Sean has yet to write anything down though Steve you think you got it?

Fine You don't think you got it? There's two different red cans Just think to yourself Well no one else has a shot That's true Go on They call themselves the official beer of the American sportsmen.

Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We got Corey saying Budweiser. Sean saying Ham. Seth saying Old Mill. Waukee. Evan saying Bud. Steve saying Old Mill.

Corinne saying Rainier. Chester saying Old Mill Waukee. Before you reveal the answer, I've got to tell you a a funny story i've never heard of the beer old mill i like it uh old milk comes in both a blue and a red who's that well everybody's hanging on the edge of their seats who's that poet that wrote jabberwocky it's like a famous poet poem you read in high school lewis carroll wow so when i was in high school in Mr. Heaton's class in 10th grade, you had to write a poem set to Jabberwocky. So you had to take the same rhyme scheme and pentameter.

Okay. And I did one called Bonfire Burnin' Wocky. Now. God dang. The thing I'm most jealous of in life is the kid that came up with the idea to do Old Milwaukee. Oh, that's good. Oh, that's great. So that's how

you know this one. No. I just thought of that. But I think it's Old Mill. Because if that's how you knew this, I would be pissed. That's the age thing. No, because they hadn't branded themselves this way, but I think this was a reinvention of the brand, if I'm not mistaken. The tension has built.

Either way, I'm thirsty. The correct answer is Schmidt. Nobody got it right. Nobody got it. You can just edit out my whole story, Phil. Schmidt's cans have featured trout, pheasants, white tails, grizzlies, black bear, elk, antelope, geese, muskie, bison, pike, and more. The beer has changed ownership multiple times since its creation in 1844, but today it's brewed by Pabst Brewing.

In Milwaukee. Blue Ribbon. I think it's now brewed in San Antonio. Oh, gosh. Can you now see the Schmidt can that has wildlife on it? Yeah. So with six correct answers. Because who does the Camo can during deer season? Bush. A lot of people. Keystone used to on it. Yeah. So with six correct answers. Because who does the camo can during deer season? Bush.

A lot of people. Keystone used to do it. Yeah. Bush does it. Bush is like the OG camo can though, right? I don't know. In college, we'd always go after the Keystone Loaves. We were such suckers for these gimmicks that these beers would do.

Oh, same, yeah. Where they would have the mounted thing in the box and you had to get the golden can that would have the trout on it that you then put on your wall, and that was your decoration in your dorm room. Then your house would have the whole set of gold cans. Bush did the gold can thing. They did those. I remember I got a gold can one time, and I was like,

I'm going to save this forever, and then the next time we ran out of beer, I drank it. Yeah, I'm going to save this forever. And then the next time we ran out of beer, I drank it. Yeah. I lost my gold bush can. I took it with me through one move from Vermilion, South Dakota to Sioux Falls. That was a loosely held conviction. Going from South Dakota to Montana.

I lost it. So I had it for a good long time. We're going to overtime. Play the drop, Phil. Tiebreaker. You ain't first, you're last. That doesn't make any sense at all. First, you're last.

You can be second. You can be third. Fourth. Hell, you can even be fifth. The tiebreaker will be a numerical question. Whoever is closest between Steve and Sean will be declared the winner. The topic is gear. What is the average price for a.22 long rifle round in August of 2022? I got this number

by taking the average of over 90 listings online from some of the world's biggest ammo dealers. So looking for the average price of a.22 long rifle round in August and write it with a decimal place. Just one round. Just one singular.22 bullet. What does that cost? Write it to a decimal place. Again, I got this number by looking at 90 listings, over 90 listings online from some of the biggest ammo dealers in the world. Steve, a lot of writing.

How are you feeling about this? I'm in the ballpark. This question was- I know we're splitting hairs on this one. We haven't gotten to overtime in so long that this was about to be a not relevant question anymore. Oh. How long ago did you collect this data? August 2022.

Okay, yeah, sorry. Got an answer? I don't know. I keep, I do, I did, I did like some math, but I don't, with him looking at it, I don't like it.

If the rest of the room wants to play along, you can also write something. We'll hear your answers too to see who did get the closest. I think my saving grace here might be that I was listening to the marriage episode, and it sounds like you're pretty bad at mental math. Okay. I'll write it all down. He did do the conversion on the first question of tablespoons and teaspoons.

Good on you, Steve, for knowing that all of those were the same. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We'll look at the non-competitors first. Oh, there's a huge split between me and Sean, which is great. We have Seth saying... You think it's not even... We have Seth saying 38 cents.

We have Evans saying 11.3 cents. Corey saying $0.38. We have Evans saying $0.113. Corey saying $0.69. Nice. Chester saying $0.75. And then our two competitors left. We have Sean saying $0.08. And Steve saying $0.25. Oh, so that's eight.

He's saying eight. I thought he was saying like, okay. You're saying $0.08, correct? $0.08. And Steve says $0.25. I'm high, cents, correct? 8 cents. And Steve says 25. I'm high, but it's high right now. And our winner of Meat Eater Trivia

is Steve. Nice! This was so close. The correct answer was 17.6 cents. Oh, man. So you guys were right there. So I won? You won. Oh, man. See, you guys were right there. So I won?

You won. By a penny. By a plum. Eight, seven. You know what really pisses me off is I had 10 cents and then... Who was closest? Steve was closer. Yeah, Steve was closer.

Because it's about nine and something cents between Sean's answer and the correct one. And it was 17. 17.6 cents. Yeah, he's... It's been and the correct one. And it was 17. 17.6 cents. Yeah, he's... It's been 7.4 cents. What are our rules on who we donate to? Because in honor of Evan being here, I want to donate to Evan's favorite veterans organization,

but we have rules about how it needs to be like a conservation-based... If they're a nonprofit and they do something that's anywhere, anything close to our universe of hunting, fishing, conservation, cooking, go ahead and donate to them. You got to tell me what it is though. It's called Hunter 7,

which is a veterans organization that we donate to all the time. They don't do anything hunting related, but it does say Hunter 7 in it, which is related to veteran toxicity and exposure to heavy metals and chemicals overseas. Has nothing to do with hunting. Yeah, but I like it.

It's got the word hunter in it is it okay seven does awesome whatever you want so if it has hunter in it right hunter i want to do i'm going to donate to in honor of evan joining us today and his in his uh advocacy for veterans i'm going to vote for a organization i'm going to put my money to an organization that you guys put backing into, which is. That's right. And we'll match it. We'll do the same thing. Tell it again. Hunters 7. Hunters 7.

It's got the word hunters in it. Yep. It's a veterans organization. That's what I'm going with. They do a lot of great work. Huge percentage there. Well, overwhelmingly, a percentage goes back to screening for heavy metals, chemicals, and things like that that veterans have been exposed to in

deployments in either Iraq or Afghanistan directly related to burn pits, which leads to over a 325% increase in cancers in veterans related to their peer group. So it's a big issue for guys like me that have been overseas a lot. It's something that's on the forefront of our mind all the time, which is, am I going to come up with a random cancer based on what I've been exposed to in combat? So it's not just combat that'll kill you. It might be a bunch of other shit, too. I like it. Now, Evan, before we get out of here, is there anything new and exciting happening at Black Rifle Coffee that our listeners should know about? Oh, there's always tons of really cool stuff that's going on in black rifle coffee but uh we're doing the

episode which or i did an episode with steve he can talk about we're also uh doing this uh collab so we're doing a collab coffee between black rifle coffee meat eater pack out coffee which is a well the design is awesome that's a kick-ass it a great. The gnome packing out the unicorn. Kick-ass bag. It's a, it's a awesome bag design. It's a great coffee. So it's a, uh, South American. Well, I can go into the specifics of it, but it's a Colombian Arabica bean. Uh, it's, it's a single origin Colombian Arabica. So it's a medium roast for Steve's specification.

So it's not too dark. It's not too light. Right in the middle. Right in the middle. Evan was it that told me, this would be a good trivia question for you. Does light roast or dark roast have more caffeine? Light roast.

Yeah. I didn't know that. He told me that. For the, so we're launching, so the first episode of our most recent season, the meat eater, where, uh, features Evan Hafer,
