This episode is brought to you by Seafoam Motor Treatment, a proud podcast sponsor of Meat Eater. Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer Newharth, and today we're joined by Stephen Ranella, Danielle Pruitt, Hunter Spencer, Randall Williams, Jordan Sillers, Tyler Jones, and Casey Smith. Now, for most of you, this is your first time playing Meat Eater Trivia, so we're going to go around the room, and you're going to tell us how you think you'll perform. Danielle, she's our culinary expert, host of Wild and Whole's sourced YouTube series.

Danielle, how do you think you'll do in Meat Eater Trivia? Pretty bad. Maybe a clean up? In fact, I've almost been dreading this all day. Oh, I'm sorry. eat eater trivia? Pretty bad. Maybe a clean up? I've almost been dreading this all day. Really? Oh, I'm sorry. Well, it's my brain is not able to retain information in

the form of like people, places, numbers. Okay. So I just feel I might be a little embarrassed. Maybe a clean up in the culinary category though. I hope so. Well, he'll throw you a bone though, but I don't think he can do it because he's got so many first-time players. Well, do you know what they all have in common, Steve? Texas.

Texas. Wait, you're from Texas? They're all from Texas. Virginia. Hunter's played before. No, he's played before. Now, normally folks who are on the meat eater payroll don't get a bone thrown to them, but because we have so many new players in town and you're all from Texas, you might hear a question that's from your neck of the woods. What state was the Alamo in?

Now, Jordan, you're our firearms expert and someone who helps create Cal's Week in Review. Jordan, how do you think you're going to do in Meat Eater Trivia? He's going to be good. No, well, we were talking about movies on the podcast just a few minutes ago. Remember that movie Slumdog Millionaire? Oh, yeah. About the guy and his life experiences perfectly match up with the questions he's asked? 100%.

If that happens to me, I'll do great. Okay. But if not. Where was Jordan? He was born. Yep. That's not going to happen, probably. And then I'll make a movie about it and you'll win Best Picture.

Exactly. It'll be incredible. Jordan was telling me something interesting that going between Canada and Texas, when you're in Canada, you're too American. And when you're in Texas, you're too Canadian, right? Yeah. Yeah. So I was born in Canada. That's where my family is. So we'd go up and visit after we moved to the States.

And when we were up there, we were the Americansicans but then in the states we were the canadians sure so i just i just don't fit i don't fit in my identity it's called being disenfranchised exactly i'm disenfranchised yes tyler and casey they host the element podcast and have some youtube content dropping on meat eaters youtube feed later this year how do you boys think you'll do in MeatEater trivia? I think I'll be in the middle of the pack. I've done two of these just listening to my car or my truck and done pretty well. Give us a score. I just hope I don't miss the Texas.

Like what are you in the five, six range? Yeah, probably like that. Five maybe. You pause and you hit pause. Is there a pause button? No. When you're listening from home. No, by no means.

How many seconds do we have to answer? Do you go through the rules? You kind of wait until it quiets down, then he says show your answer. Yeah. Until it's not interesting anymore. That's how much time you have. I got a question for you. Yeah, what's up?

One is a thing I just learned that's really interesting is that you know randall he's the only person that works here that has a phd is that true yeah really and he that's so esteemed that at the library they made it that he can check out books as long as he wants wow no late fees no due date that's what that's how these people take care of each other yeah that's how the eggheads. That's like what the eggheads will do for each other. Yeah. And like professors, you were always granted five minutes being late for every degree you had. So how late does that allow you to be Randall?

No one told me about it. Yeah, it's got to be 15. Yeah. No one told me about that rule. When he takes a book, it's just his. That's nice. Most of us chumps only have five-minute grace, but Randall, he can wander in 15 minutes late

and nobody will be mad. PhD. That's good to know. Is that a company? Is that like all through all libraries? No, no. I just got an affiliate faculty status at UM. Do they give you like, do you have a little card or something that says what's up? No. I got a student ID, or not a student ID, whatever the Grizz card, they call it.

And when I went to get it last week, they said, we have your old picture on file. Do you, do you just want to use that one? Yeah. Totally different shape. My face. It's just, it was unrecognizable. I thought this just won't even work, you know. Well, how do you, when you check a book out, how do you let them know that you're like, there'll be no due date? It's just keyed into the, it's just, those are my borrowing privileges. There are different categories, different tiers of borrowing privileges. So I went from just a Montana resident.

So as a Montana resident, you can go in and get like a lot of borrowing privileges at UM or any of the, you know, public universities. And those are like the lowest of the low. Cause it's just anybody with a Montana driver's license. So I just leapfrogged. Yeah. Yeah. I had to, I leapfrogged to the top tier, I think, unless there's some like unknown tier beyond the provost and the university president. They can just walk out with rare and collectible books. But yeah.

That puts you at a big trivia advantage I'd say, Randy. Oh, he... Depends on how much of the reading I'm actually doing. You know, there's something

to be said for. He's uniquely suited to dominate and piss his mind. Now, Casey... Can I ask one more quick question? Yeah, what's up?

When you say who's here, you're not going like you're dealing poker and you're not going alphabetic. How are you making your list? Y'all just asked the same question last week. I'm usually pulling up the Google invite and seeing who accepted the invite to come and then just writing it down that way.

Now, Casey, we haven't heard from you yet. How do you think you're going to do in Meat Eater Trivia? Spencer, I absolutely love trivia games, and I'm here to win. That doesn't mean I'm going to, but I am going to give it my best. Good. Steve wanted to wager earlier, but he hasn't told me the terms. I thought I was trying to do a side bet of $5. If that's what we have to do, that's what we have to do.

All right. Now, if you're not familiar, this is a 10-round quiz show with questions from Meat Eaters 4 Verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. And there is a prize. Meat Eater will donate $500 to the conservation organization of the winner's choosing. And each week here on Meat Eater Trivia, we reveal a new stat. This week, we're looking at the Meat Eater Trivia Perfect Games. Through 46 episodes, we've had three shows where someone has gotten all 10 questions right.

Steve is responsible for one of them, and Brody has gotten the other two. That means that 6.5% of episodes end in a perfect game. In those perfect games, the average score of the other players has been five. I like some math in the end. of the other players has been 5.7. So Brody and Steve nearly doubled up the rest of the room. That tells me that they weren't easy rounds. Those boys were just on their A game. That's great.

You like it? Great stat. Now, in the last few weeks weeks i've had some listeners reach out saying that i could make my job a lot easier if i just used ai technology to write the trivia questions so i tried it i went to chat gpt and asked the bot to write me 10 trivia questions about hunting fishing conservation and conservation, and cooking. This was a complete failure. Here are some of the questions that it suggested.

Can I play? You're not going to want to play. That's how bad they are. Take it away, Phil. Question. What is the main method used to catch fish in freshwater? Answer. Fishing with a rod and reel.

Question. What is the term used for the conservation of wildlife? Answer, wildlife conservation. Question, what is the purpose of salt in baking? Answer, salt enhances flavor. Question, what is the hunting season for wild turkey in the United States? Answer, Turkey season. So, while it's projected that AI technology will replace 85 million jobs by

2025, the host of Meat Eater Trivia isn't one of them. Hold on a minute. By 2025? Yeah. It's coming. Fast. 85 million? 85 million. That's scary. I'm not worried about it. Yeah, Spencer's good.

Now the Shelby Index for this round is a five, so I'm officially putting this on perfect game alert. With that, we're on to the round of trivia. Play the drop, Phil. Look, I need to know what I stand to win.

Everything. How's that? You stand to win. Everything. How's that? Just stand to win everything. Game on, suckers! Question one. The topic is conservation, and as always, this will be multiple choice. This first great question comes to us via Mitch Morris. If you have a question you think is right for MeatEater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at themeatdeater.com. What state had the most acres burned by wildfires in 2022? Was it Texas, Washington, New Mexico,

or Alaska? A lot of folks writing answers before I even gave the choices. I think we have a confident room. Again, the question is, what state had the most acres burned by wildfires in 2022? Your four choices are Texas, Washington, New Mexico, and Alaska. Steve, did you get this one right?

Mm-hmm. And it's what you thought it was before I gave the choices. The choices didn't change your mind, is what I'm asking. No, no, no, no, no. I don't know what would have happened when I got done thinking about it. But when I started thinking about it, I had the wrong answer. Okay. But I would have thought about it longer.

Four choices. Texas. I'd still be thinking about it. Washington, New Mexico, Alaska. Does everybody have an answer? How you feeling, Randall? Not that confident. Go ahead and reveal your answers.

We have Steve saying Alaska. Tyler saying Texas. Danielle saying Washington. Hunter saying Texas. KC saying New Mexico. Randall saying New Mexico. Jordan saying New Mexico. We have a right answer in the room.

The correct answer is Alaska. Steve with a hot start. Yeah, perfect game, bro. In 2022, Alaska had 3.1 million acres of land burned by wildfires. That's followed by New Mexico at 860,000, Texas at 670,000, Oregon at 460,000. Idaho at 440,000. Oklahoma at 390,000. And California at 310,000. Despite Alaska leading the country

in wildfire acres last year, they only burned half as much as they did during their record year of 2004. Question two, the topic is fishing. Oh, I didn't know that. Questions. It's a great question. I didn't know that questions. It's a great question.

I didn't want to put California in there. I think the whole room would have said California. So I'll give you other choices. Question two of the topic is fishing. Multiple fishermen were robbed by cartel pirates who drove bass boats on this Rio Grande Reservoir in 2010. If you didn't pick up on it, this is our Texas question for all of our Texas friends in the room.

Danielle, do you think you know this one? I don't know. Son of a gun, man. Hanging on a prayer here. Throwing a bone out like this is depriving me of my perfect game. Casey, you got this one? Potentially. Okay.

Jordan? No. Tyler? I have two, and I can't figure out which one it is. You do the other one, and one of us will be robbed. Okay, perfect. Not real confident Texans. Again, the question is multiple

fishermen were robbed by cartel pirates who drove bass boats on this Rio Grande reservoir in 2010. Does everybody have an answer? Who's coming up with an answer? Jordan, how long have you lived in Texas?

Six years. Do you know any Rio Grande reservoirs? None are coming to mind. Do you know any cartel pirates? No. Does everybody have an answer? Steve, are you going to get this one? No, man. I don't even know. Go ahead and reveal

your answers. We have Steve saying Lake Austin. Tyler saying Amistad. Danielle saying Falcon. Hunter saying Apache. Casey saying Amistad. Randall without an answer. Jordan saying Devil's Lake.

The correct answer is Falcon Lake. Danielle got it right. You know how I knew this? Travis used to work in Zapata around that time, and I remember he was really close to this lake, and there was a lot of funny business with the cartel. I didn't know the story about the bass boats, but I knew there was a lot of cartel action on the lake.

Piracy briefly became a major problem on Falcon Lake in 2010 when a turf war broke out between the Los Zetas and Gulf Cartel. Fishermen were warned not to travel into Mexican waters for a few months until one side won. The pirates used fishing boats to smuggle contraband and rob civilians and in one instance misspelled the words game warden in duct tape on the side of their boat. How'd they spell it?

Yeah, how'd they spell it? I think the last E in game warden in duct tape on the side of their boat. That's great. How do they spell it? Yeah, how do they spell it? I think the last E in game warden, they put an I. They still would have gotten the question right because you don't care about spelling. That's right. Our perfect game is over. Two questions in. Question three.

The topic is cooking. This city hosts the World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest and uses pork for the foundation of its barbecue style. This city hosts the World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest and uses pork for the foundation of its barbecue style. Quick answer from Jordan. Quick answer from Steve.

Steve, you got this? 50-50. Okay. She erased. She erased over there. Danielle did? Yeah. Again, this city hosts the World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest.

I saw a little something in the way she was moving her pen that makes me think I might be on to something. Does everybody have an answer? I don't like it. Hunter, good? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Memphis. Tyler saying Memphis. Danielle crossed out Memphis and wrote Kansas City. It was Kansas City's beef though, right?

Hunter says Kansas City. Casey says Austin. Randall says Memphis. and wrote Kansas City. Kansas City's beef, though, right? Hunter says Kansas City. I didn't know it ain't Texas. Casey says Austin. Randall says Memphis. And Jordan says Memphis. The room did well. The correct answer is Memphis. You know what I saw Daniel do is dot an I.

Oh, no. And I was like, it's Memphis. Kansas City. She was dot an I. I should have kept it. Memphis is most famous for its pork ribs and pork shoulders. This regional style of barbecue often uses a sauce that's thin and tangy. The World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest is held there each May

and set the Guinness World Record for biggest pork barbecue competition in 1990. I'll tell you what kind of barbecue I think is pretty damn good, and I don't know how I didn't know about it, is the white sauce. Alabama. Dude, I got into my late 40s and not knowing that was a thing. Did you learn about it through meat eater

trivia? No, I learned about it before that, but I've got that one right, though, because of that. I think I got it right. Question four. The topic is hunting this next great question comes to us via scott sud camp if you have a question you think is right for meat eater trivia you can send it to trivia at the meat eater.com what is the only subspecies of turkey from the world slam that can't be hunted in America?

What is the only subspecies of turkey from the world slam that can't be hunted in America? You got a real problem right now, buddy. Okay. Tell me about it. Like I've often said, we need to leave the room, but you have a real problem right now.

Do you want to expand or do you want to talk about it afterwards? We'll talk about it afterwards, but I think you're going to have to have, you need an 11th question. I could keep my mouth shut and get the point. Okay. Matter of fact, I will. Does everybody have an answer?

I think it's too late for that. What is the only subspecies of turkey from the World Slam that can't be hunted in America? Do we have to spell it right? No, he doesn't care about spelling. Spelling doesn't matter. If it's so far off that it might have been a different word, he'll get you. I think I got the first letter right. Okay.

Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying oscillated. Tyler saying oscillated. Danielle saying osseola. Hunter without an answer. Casey saying oscillated. Randall without an answer. Jordan sayingillated. Danielle sang Osceola. Hunter without an answer. Casey sang Oscillated.

Randall without an answer. Jordan sang Goulds. Not even writing anything down. This is like the opposite of Slumdog Millionaire. That would have been a horrible movie.

At the end of the movie he's like, yeah, I don't know. The correct answer is Oscillated. Steve, what do you got for me? It's a completely different species. It's not a subspecies. It's a completely different

species. So if I said species, then you'd be okay with it. Oh yeah, but you get your... Okay. This is looking at the NWTF and what they say the world's slime is? I think it has its own Linnan own name. Okay.

Someone check me on this. Open up a computer. We'll address it in housekeeping of the next episode. You get the point. What about the other problem with this question? What is America? Because we have North and South America and Central America, so all these United States. I mean, the question's the question. Are we giving it to Danielle? That's my question.

No, Osceola is a different turkey. This is the same thing. Yesterday, you know that I meant that. No, I thought you meant an Osceola turkey. Oh, wait, that's a different turkey? That's a different turkey. The six turkeys included in the World Slam are the Eastern, Osceola, Rio Grande, Merriam's, Gould's, and Oscillated. Hold on, let me see that again.

I meant the one in Mexico. Oscilosa. Is that the one you're talking about? Oscilosa. I don't know, because it sounds a hell of a lot like Osciolsa. But I think you're closer to Osciola than you are Oscillated. That's a hybrid. You're talking about the Mexican, the one in Mexico, right?

Yes. What you write on the board matters a lot. Danielle wrote, what would happen if an Osceola and an Oscillated met in the Caribbean and had a hybrid? Now, these birds are famous for their peacock-like appearance and metallic feathers that range from electric blue to burnt orange. Steve, have you killed one yet dude no and me and yanni have almost gone we we had a whole we had a whole trip planned we were supposed to go last year like we were lined up we were going and then in the end the guy we were going with uh we got into doing the sidey, and the guy we were going with, it gradually emerged

that this guy did not have permits, but was kind of being like, no one cares. And you care. It's not really a thing. I mean, like, no one's going to check. Someday it's going to happen. So we had to bail. Oh, it's going to happen, buddy. You know, I'm already, I'm already, you know,

super slam holder. Question five. The topic is wildlife. What 2013 award-winning documentary focused on Tilikum, the orca who killed three people? What 2013 award-winning documentary focused on Tilikum, the orca who killed three people? Steve, did your humunculus help you there? No, I just knew it. Okay.

Some confident folks. Brandon, you doing any right now? You're going to sit around again? Already done. Okay. Straight out. Fairly confident room. Casey, you got this one?

Okay. Oh, yeah. Hunter? Hmm Fairly confident room. Casey, you got this one? Okay. Oh, yeah. Hunter? Hmm. Tyler? It's debatable. I don't know.

Danielle, you look like you knew it. Yeah, yeah. Maybe. Okay. Again, topic is wildlife. What 2013 award-winning documentary focused on Tilikum, the orca who killed three people? Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying blackfish.

Tyler saying blackfish. Danielle saying free Willy. Hunter without an answer. Casey saying blackfish. Randall saying blackfish. I know Willy killed three people. Jordan saying black's locked up. They left that out of the movie.

The correct answer is Blackfish. When he kills the little boy. Only four humans have ever been killed by orcas. Tilikum is responsible for three of those deaths. The first death happened in 1991 when Tilikum grabbed a trainer's foot, pulled her underwater, and drowned her. The second death happened in 1999 when a homeless person snuck into Tilikum's pool after hours and was drowned by the whale. And the third death happened in 2010 during a show when Tilikum grabbed its trainer by the ponytail, scalped her, bit her arm off, swallowed it, and drowned her.

Did you watch the documentary, Steve? Uh-uh. No, it seems like I might not, because I don't know. That's a lot to watch. What happened to the... Tilikum was then put in a different pool at SeaWorld, and then he died in 2017. They didn't put him down? They didn't put him down.

One of the problems with situations like this was he died at about 35, which is the normal life expectancy of orcas in captivity, but in the wild, they live up to like 100. So Tilikum had a rough life. Phil, we are halfway

through the game of trivia. Give us a scoreboard update. I want to watch that movie now. Check it out. There's so much action. I used to think there was some nuance in the orcas being kept in captivity. But after that and after doing some whale watching, it's like, no. It's just pretty dang evil.

In last place, zero points, we have Hunter Spencer. Coming up next is danielle with one point then we have jordan casey and randall with two points apiece tyler has three points and in first place is steve with four Hey folks, exciting news for those who live or hunt in Canada.

Question six. The topic is anthropology. Consider the most populous tribe in America. Populous? Populous Considered the most populous tribe in America. Populous? Populous. Considered the most populous tribe in America. These people were forced to relocate to Oklahoma

in 1838. Is that a bone? Not a bone. Considered the most populous tribe in America. These people were forced to relocate to Oklahoma in 1838. A very confident room. I thought you said populist at first.

Populist? I thought you said that. I don't understand. Like a mega tribe. Now, populist. Does everybody have an answer? This might be a seven for seven in the room. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Cherokee. Populous. Does everybody have an answer? This might be a seven for seven in the room.

Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Cherokee. Tyler saying Cherokee. Danielle saying Comanche. Hunter saying Comanche. Casey saying Cherokee. Randall and Jordan saying Cherokee. They got it.

The correct answer is Cherokee. Cherokee. It's hanging in there. It's estimated there are nearly 800,000 Cherokee peoples in the United States, which is nearly half a million more than the next largest tribe, the Navajo. The Cherokee once inhabited states like North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee, but were forced to relocate after gold was discovered in part of their range is it uh maybe i'm wrong about this but is there like like for membership in some tribes there's a there's a higher threshold of lineage and they have a very relaxed threshold like you know the answer that one you could be like a 24th i think it's a 16th or 16th that. Question seven. The topic is fishing. This next great question comes to us via Jeremy Creed.

If you have a question you think is right for MeatEater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at themeateater.com. What fishing lure brand has caught the most world records according to the IGFA? Quick answer from Steve, Jordan, Randall. Jordan, you got this one? I don't know. I just named one. Randall?

Just guessing. Okay. Steve, quickest answer. You think you got this? Uh, not. Just guessing. Okay. Steve, quickest answer. You think you got this? Not, you know, what do you call it when you know it? I don't know it, but I think I, you know what I'm saying? Educated guess. Yeah, that's what I'm trying to say.

Not educated as much as Randall. Does everybody have an answer? Danielle? One more time. What fishing lure brand has caught the most world records, according to the IGFA? Everybody's going to have the same answer, I think. Does that help you at all, Danielle?

Oops. That's not what I meant. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve and Tyler saying Rapala. Hunter saying Rattletrap. KC, Randall, and Jordan all saying Rapala. They got it. The correct answer is Rapala.

Rapala has caught 489 world record fish from the IGFA books. That's followed by Meps at 99. Yozuri at 90. Helco and Storm at 60. and Homemade Lures at 59. Give me the top number one and two again. Number one is Rapala, 489. No, no, no. Okay, 489.

That's right. Meps, 99. Yozuri, 90. Not even close. Not even a prayer of getting overtaken. And the weird thing is that I thought of is they're not huge in the saltwater space. Like big game offshore, all that. You know what I mean?

Okay. The most common lure type used to catch world record fish is a jig followed by spoons and plastic worms. Question eight. We'll get another scoreboard update from Phil the engineer after this. The topic is cooking. The main version is chilled and dressed with mayo,

while the Connecticut version is warm and dunked in butter. What is it? The Maine version is chilled and dressed with mayo, while the Connecticut version is warm and dunked in butter. Quick answer from Steve and Danielle. Danielle, you got this one right. I better. I'll be depressed. Oh, I think I just screwed it up.

You can still change your answer this time. Can you say it one more time? The Maine version is chilled and dressed with mayo, while the Connecticut version is warm and dunked in butter. What is it? It's the least confident the room has looked yet. Except for Danielle. I mean, I know, like, I think I know, like,

what it roughly has going on here. When you figure it out, you'll be like, oh, so obvious. Danielle, you don't need to help the guy in first place. I know, I shouldn't. I just want to make him feel real bad if he misses. That's right. Jordan, you have an answer. You're going to get this one right.

I don't think so. Steve, I noticed you haven't changed your answer. No, I think I got it. Okay. Did some waffling, but you're sticking with what you started with. Listen, I'm not embarrassed. I'm not embarrassed. It's not like when I had to put up Lake Austin earlier. That was embarrassing. Does everybody have an answer?

Go ahead and reveal your answer. We have Steve saying lobster. Tyler saying lobster po' boy. Danielle saying lobster. Hunter saying lobster roll. Casey saying smoked oysters. Randall saying lobster roll. And Jordan saying lobster.

The correct answer is lobster roll. Jordan saying lobster The correct answer Is lobster roll I don't think we're gonna give it to you If you only said lobster That's not true because You don't have to have Lobster in a roll to dip it in butter Most people just dip their lobster

In butter It wouldn't be Maine lobster It's a Maine lobster roll It's not Connecticut lobster It's a Maine lobster roll. It's not Connecticut lobster. It's a Connecticut lobster roll. Yeah, but the roll is just a form of eating it. There's not like a butter... It would be like if...

It'd be like if the answer was beef tartare and you just said beef. Is that the same thing? What if you meant beef tartare? If I went to a restaurant in Maine and ordered the lobster, would they bring it out with mayonnaise? No. No. You gotta say roll. I don't know.

You have to say roll. Roll is a crucial part of the answer. You could go to Maine and have lobster dipped in butter. Sure. But if you're going to eat a roll in two different places, they would serve it differently. That's why. But the point is, how would you serve it? It's a type of sandwich. Does my Cajun friend

still qualify? Just use the southern term? I don't think that's it. Oh, come on. Steve's worried over here. If you don't give it to him, you cannot give it to me. Steve's not giving it to him. My boys are too fried, right? It has to be lobster roll.

If you just said lobster, it's not good enough. The other key difference between them is the bun. The Maine version is usually served on a frankfurter roll, while the Connecticut version uses a toasted hot dog bun. Mainers considered declaring the lobster roll its official state sandwich in 2021, but the bill was shot down by the Senate. Phil, we have two questions left. Give us a scoreboard update.

Wasn't worth their time. He wanted the butter. Out of the game are Hunter and Danielle, who have one point apiece. Thanks for playing, though. We got Jordan and Casey with four points. Tyler and Randall with five, and still in first place is Steve with six points. Okay. Still have a chance. Two questions left. Question nine. The topic is woodsmanship.

This is our peak refuel question of the week, which was won by Tina Swartz for sending this great question. Tina is going to get a week's worth of peak refuel meals as well as a book signed by Steve. Eating buckthorn will cause animal urine to

turn this color when exposed to sunlight. Come on. Eating buckthorn will cause animal urine to turn this color when exposed to sunlight. Steve, was that a come on

like too easy? A come on like that? No idea. Wait, repeat it. What animal? Any animal? Any animal. Eating buckthorn will cause animal urine to turn this color when exposed to sunlight. That's a great question. A stumped room.

I feel as if they haven't tried every animal, so. You got me there. It's a chimpanzee trap. Buckthorn. Do you know what buckthorn looks like, Steve? Oh, yeah. Okay. That doesn't help you at all?

Dude, I have. This isn't even like a thing. My homunculus has never learned this. I've never learned. It's not like I forgot. I never learned it. Uh-huh. Does everybody have an answer for the color that the urine turns when exposed to sunlight?

That's a great question. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying green, Tyler saying blue, Danielle saying green, Hunter saying red, Casey saying green, Randall, what's your answer? Saying orange Jordan saying green The correct answer is blue Tyler, you guys are right Damn it Blue

Ties it up with blue Buckthorn Did you know it or guess it? I had green and Spencer gave me a hint Oh, what was the hint? So you know what color it is So it kind of I changed my answer based on that.

I don't know if that was an actual intended hint. Hold on. Say this again now? I don't know what buckthorn is. I asked you if you knew what buckthorn was. And then you said yes. What is buckthorn? Buckthorn is an invasive shrub that's found in 37 states.

Although deer and rabbits don't consider it a choice food source, they will eat it when options are limited. The bark from the tree is what causes urine to turn blue. After about 10 minutes of sunlight exposure, many woodsmen refer to this as Smurf pee and often witness it in the winter in snow. Hormat. Him and I didn't talk about anything that would have told you the answer. So what is, I don't know what buckthorn looks like. Buckthorn, it's like a shrubby thing that has some berries on it.

Well, the bark, it looks like any other piece of vegetation. It's not like a pale colored bark? Can you find this in Texas? That's where I was putting things together. But you said that you thought he said something to me that told you the answer. I asked you if you knew what buckthorn was. Why would that tell you what color it is? He asked if you knew what it looked like.

I thought it might be kind of pale, so I just assumed blue would be a good color. Question 10. If he wins, that's an asterisk as one wild guess. The asterisk is the Austin, Texas. Austin, the Lady Texans. That was a wild guess. I feel like I'm fixing to go down on a kickoff right now, Steve.

Question 10. I'm tired, man. Give us another scoreboard update. Well, we have three players left in the game. Randall has five points, and tied with six points apiece are Steve and Tyler. All right. Dude, I don't like it. Question 10.

The topic is conservation. This virus, which arrived in America in 1999, is credited with killing millions of birds each year. Are you kidding me? This virus, which arrived in America in 1999, is credited with killing millions of birds each year. A very confident room in a perturbed Steve. I kind of want to talk to you outside for a minute.

Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying bird flu. Tyler saying avian flu. Danielle saying avian flu. Hunter saying avian flu. KC and Randall and Jordan saying avian influenza. They all got it wrong.

The correct answer is West Nile. I should have known that. Bird flu has been in America since the 1920s. I should have known that. Bird flu has been in America since the 1920s. I should have known that. That was a great question. Now, the first case of West Nile was observed in New York City in 1999. Officials believed it arrived here with an infected bird or mosquito, and within five years, it had spread across the continent.

Game birds are capable of carrying West Nile, but there's no evidence that the virus can be transmitted through eating infected meat. That's a great question. That's what knocked rough grouse digging the dirt so bad, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. Sage grouse, I think, really struggled. And they found, I think there's like a couple hundred birds that can catch West Nile and only about half of them can build up immunity. Great question. We're going to overtime between Tyler and Steve. Play the drop, Phil. Tie breaker.

If 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 tie-breaking question, the topic is conservation. And this is from Brian Dock.

The secretary of the interior is what number in the line of presidential succession? This is a numerical question. Whoever is closest between Tyler and Steve will be declared the winner. Again, the question is, the Secretary of the Interior is what number in line of presidential succession? I'm going to give you guys a little bit of clarity here. I'd like to walk through my thinking on this. The first person is the vice president. It doesn't start at president.

I'm just telling you, number one is vice president. It's not one president. So on and so forth. The rest of the room can come up with answers if you want to play along, but the only ones that matter are Tyler and Steve. This is an exciting finish. Tyler, who's never even played trivia before, walks in here off the street

from Texas in a different climate. This is a tough environment for Tyler to be playing in. It's cold. It's snowy. It's windy. I can't focus. That's right. Steve over here, his eyes are getting watery. He's so, so focused. That is a good question, man. Again, the Secretary of the Interior

is what number in line of presidential succession? God, I'd love to walk through my thinking on this. Go ahead, write it out, and we can talk about it afterwards. Randall, as being the educated fellow in the room, this seems like this is most in your wheelhouse. I want to make it known that at no point today did I bring up my academic pedigree. This isn't in his wheelhouse. This is like on the center of the steering wheel.

I didn't bring this up. But how do you think you'd fare in this question? Don't give too many hints, but do you think you'd have a good chance? Oh, I've lost all confidence in my abilities today. All right. And Jordan, as our Canadian, do you think you'd have a shot at this one? Decent shot. You probably know some American things that most Americans don't even know.

Maybe. I mean, I had to study. I was just telling the folks earlier, I just became an American, so I had to study for the naturalization test. This is not one of the questions on the test. Do you feel like you know more about America than Americans haven't studied for that? Um. Not a high bar.

Yeah, it's not a high bar. I studied a little bit, but I knew most of it. Tyler, do you have an answer? Steve, do you have an answer? I do, buddy. Okay. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Oh, shit. That's what I wanted to write.

We have Hunter saying 7, Casey saying 6, Randall saying 8, Jordan saying 14, Tyler saying 5, and Steve sang 4. He won it now. The correct answer is 8th, making Tyler the winner. Tyler, well done. Very impressive.

I thought he was going to say something like 20. I don't know. Let me walk you through what it is. 1 is Vice President. 2, Speaker of the House. Two, speaker of the house. Three, president of the Senate. Four, secretary of state. Five, secretary of treasury.

Six, secretary of defense. Seven, attorney general. And eight is the secretary of the interior. The list goes all the way to 18. And then last is the homeland security secretary. Let me tell you a little bit about why because at that time the secretary of interior was a big deal like you know when they when they got to the headwaters of the missouri they named

did they like name one of them no it was a treasurer. I don't know. Gallatin. Gallatin was the treasurer. Oh, never mind. That was my thinking. I had seven, and I erased it. As far as secretaries go. You would have won even more.

Yeah, more wins. Interior beats out agriculture, commerce, labor, transportation, energy, Education, Veterans Affairs, and Homeland Security. Tyler, well done. What happens next is you get to choose where the $500 donation goes. I feel like you should have known. Randall got it dead nuts. Randall, that is great. I could go to number six.

You could? I figured it was close. Really? And you had all six in the correct order as well. Very impressive. Dude, so when you're Secretary of Interior, you're not getting terribly cocky. You're not like, baby,

if things go right. If all seven of them are in one place at one time, it's got to go way wrong before it goes right. Baby, I'm just one nuclear explosion

away from running this place. They always say with the Vice President that you're like one heartbeat away. Secretary of the Interior, though. A heartbeat away.

I'm one apocalypse away from running this whole show. Tyler, so what are you going to choose for the $500 donation to a conservation organization? I did some volunteer work

for Ducks Unlimited for a while. And so, I actually ran a chapter in my hometown. So I think I'd like to do that. I like it. What was the hometown chapter?

Emory. And it's still around? No, it's not actually. So you're going national or you're going local? You can pick either one. Okay. Oh, I would like to go to the Sulphur Springs Ducks Unlimited chapter. That's where we'll send our $500 then.

Well done. One of the most impressive things we've witnessed, Tyler. Dustin Huff also came in here, had never played before. Beat the room. Tyler, similar feat. Good game. Makes you wonder what kind of talent's out there. Do you know what I mean?

Let's bring some strong players out there. All the way down in Texas. Who'd have thought? Join us next time for more Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins.
