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 Brody Henderson, Chester Floyd, Randall Williams, Alyssa Smith, Christine Sawicki, Marge Smith, Logan Dove, and Chili.

This is a 10-round quiz show with questions from Meat Eater's four verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking, and there is a prize. Meat Eater will donate $500 to the conservation organization of the winners choosing and for the stat of the week this week we're looking at the number 15 that is the percentage of multiple choice questions that are in the board game now in the regular show that number is 10 but i wanted to make the game more approachable for hunters and anglers of all skill sets. So I slightly upped the ratio of multiple choice questions for that reason. 15% of the questions are multiple choice.

How does that strike you, Randall? You like it or would you rather it be like 5%? I'll be honest. I don't really like the multiple choice. I understand the rationale. Sure. What's the rationale? Well, to make it more approachable for users of all levels of experience.

But I would assume, though, that someone could, for some of the multiple choice questions, just forego the options as they're reading it to their competitors and just make it into a non-multiple choice well here's why that wouldn't work sometimes it'll be like um which of these meats has the most calories or something like that or which one of these people was born first yeah um so if you want to play on hard mode like randall you could with the board game but for everyone else just use the multiple choice questions i do like to make things more difficult meat eater trivia the only board game where conservation always wins comes out this fall here's our zero percenter question of the week which tests how much knowledge players have retained from previous shows this question was from episode 406 the topic was hunting and nobody

got it right name two of the five states states in America that kill the most geese. What do you got? Start naming them. Two of the five states that kill the most geese. Michigan. South Dakota. North Dakota is one of them. Keep going.

Minnesota. Minnesota is one of them. Minnesota is two. North Dakota is five. Looking for one, three, and four. No. Kansas. No.

No. Texas. No. Texas is number one. We're missing, and four. No. Kansas. No. No. Texas. No. Texas is number one. We're missing three and four. Those are California and Maryland, so the top five states are Texas, Minnesota, California, Maryland, and North Dakota.

They kill the most geese each year in the country. We have some housekeeping to get to. In a previous game of trivia, I asked who is the only person that has a national park named after them? The correct answer was Theodore, technically the park is named after the land and the land is named after a person. So it kind of falls in a gray area. What does the room think? Should we give them credit for Bryce Canyon? Here's the question one more time.

As a reminder, who is the only person that has a national park named after them? Should we accept Bryce Canyon? No, no. I don't think so. No. Okay. I was leaning the other direction. I think so. I thought it would have been a yes.

I'm with you. Me, Chester, Maggie, the rest of the room. Is it Bryce Canyon National Park? It's Bryce Canyon National Park, and Bryce Canyon is named after Ebenezer Bryce. Okay, the room has voted on a no. Here's the other one. A few other listeners wrote in saying that the answer

Sequoia National Park should also be accepted. Here's why. Sequoia national park is named after the sequoia tree and those trees are named after the cherokee leader sequoia so similar to bryce canyon the park is named after a feature that is named after a person should we accept sequoia national park no no no okay is it just sequoia it's just sequoia i don't think it's Sequoia Tree. I think it's just Sequoia. I thought it was like... It's not like Sequoia Dash something.

Brody, so you're telling me if you knew Sequoia was the name of that leader and you put that down and they said it didn't count, you wouldn't file a complaint. I'd go... If I'm gonna stick if i'm gonna stick with the bryce canyon thing i don't think you can go the same way because sequoias it looks like

it's king king's canyon national park and sequoia national park but i believe they're probably managed by the same folks and probably they're like right next to each other or something anyway if it's named after the tree... It's not named after the Cherokee leader, but the tree is named after the Cherokee leader. It's like once removed. Okay, the Bryce Canyon thing then. I could see you just throwing a little fit over there.

Well, Bryce Canyon has two words and Sequoia has just one word. So I feel like that one's closer than the other one. Okay, the name is more split. Listen, I would have given it to you if you would have argued with me in the moment and said, well, it's actually named after this thing and that thing is named after this, but the room feels otherwise.

So we're not accepting Bryce Canyon and we're not accepting Sequoia National Park. That means the only answer then is Theodore Roosevelt. Well, I thought you're the one that gets to decide, Spencer. Well, sure. In this case, though, I was torn on it.

I thought the room would come in on my side and be like, yeah, give it to him, of course. But here we are. Oh, that's sloppy. Doesn't count. Now, the Shelby Index for today's round is a four. So our winner should get eight correct answers. And with that, we're on to the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil.

Look, I'm... The colored lights are out of batteries, so you have to use your imagination. Okay. It's time to win everything. Get my flashlight out. Game on, suckers! Question one.

This will be multiple choice, as always. According to a 2023 survey, Americans in this profession have the, quote, happiest, most meaningful work on Earth. Is it foresters, biologists, game wardens, or fishermen? This is according to a 2023 survey this is a quote they had americans in this profession have the happiest most meaningful work on earth is it foresters biologists game wardens or fishermen

chester with a quick answer Chester how happy and meaningful is your work unbelievably happy especially when I'm fishing okay great answer Chester's trying to influence the room does everybody have an answer

again your choices are foresters, biologists, game wardens and fishermen for who has the happiest, most meaningful work on Earth. Is everybody ready? Hold on, I gotta erase one. Has anyone been a forester, biologist, game warden,

or fisherman in this room? Chester? Fishing in the weekend for walleye does not count. He had his own. He had his own TV Oh, a fishing guy. He had his own TV show. That counts.

Yeah, sure. Fish competitively. Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Logan saying biologist. Alyssa saying biologist. Chili saying foresters. Randall saying foresters.

Christine saying foresters. Marge saying foresters. Chester saying biologists brody saying fishermen the correct answer is foresters oh i'm on the board that was so close pretty well the survey simply asked people how happy they were with their job how much meaning it brought them and how much stress it caused. Forrester's won in every category, reporting that they were incredibly happy, felt a lot of meaning and experienced very little stress. On the other end of the spectrum were people who work in finance and insurance, saying that they have low happiness, little meaning and lots of stress.

Do you want to talk, Alyssa? Alyssa, you'd be in finance, right? Does that resonate? Low happiness, little meaning, and lots of stress? No. Get on that microphone. So the whole tree-hugging thing is true. Say no. Foresters, they're happy.

They say that they're not stressed, and they get a lot of meaning from their job. So go be a forester. You'll enjoy what you're doing. Question two. The topic is hunting. This next great question comes to us via Corey Betancourt. What subspecies of elk is only found in California? Fuck.

I'm sorry. What subspecies of elk is only found in California? What's that? Chili, you trying to coax an answer out of the room? Yeah, I think when I come on the show, I need a handicap. So I need at least a bone thrown my way every three three questions. Well, there's ten questions every two questions Randall and Brody have it right Chester. Do you have this one right as well? I think so. Just think so. What was the emergency exit from the room just dude?

I ate some muscles My stomach, oh really So I went out there to just burp. Dang. How long ago, Chester? It's 1.14 right now. It was like 25 minutes ago. Okay. Keep it to burping. Lunch muscles?

Where do you get these muscles at? They're really good. They're a canned muscle. Oh, yeah. And it's like spicy muscle. And I put them on a cracker with some blue cheese spread. There you go. I don't know if I eat mussels from a can. What other smelly ingredients do you have?

Eggs, too? I'm glad my office is a couple doors down. Here's a question again. What subspecies of elk is only found in California? Does everybody have an answer? Christine, Marge, are you ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Logan saying Roosevelt.

Alyssa without an answer. Chili without an answer. Randall saying Thule. Christine saying Roosevelt. Marge saying Roosevelt. Drew a nice elk for us. Chester saying Thule. Brody saying Thule. They got it. The correct answer is Thule. Thule elk were nearly hunted to extinction.

Biologists estimate that the California herd was once half a million strong, but by the mid-1800s, there were less than 30 of them left. There are about 6,000 tule elk in California today with some areas supporting a hunting season for them. Has anybody ever seen a tule elk? Yep. I don't know. You saw one like in California? What were you doing there?

I visited my sister a long time ago. Do you think if you were to put one next to a Rocky Mountain elk or a bogey? They're smaller. You'd have seen it? I think they're like smaller bodied for sure. Question three. The topic is cooking. The CDC recommends humming this song twice

while scrubbing your hands with soap. This is straight from the CDC. They recommend that you hum this song twice while scrubbing your hands with soap. Man, I'm not washing my hands right now. Well, then maybe you have the wrong song, Brody. Well, no, I don't have a song. Oh, okay. I thought he just said, I'm not washing my hands.

Period. The CDC recommends humming this song twice while scrubbing your hands with soap. Does anybody know this or was it just a bunch of guesses? Randall was writing awful fast. This whole side of the table was pretty quick. I think I know it. Okay. I'm just basing this one off my childhood. Man. Okay, I'm just basing this one off my childhood. Mm-hmm

The CDC recommends humming this song twice while scrubbing your hands with soap Marge are you ready? Jesse, did you wash your hands after you coughed? I burped. Oh, burp. Oh, that's right. He burped into your hat, Chili. Is everybody ready? That's why I'm not wearing it. Go ahead and reveal your answers.

We have Logan saying, Clean up. Alyssa saying, ABCs. Chili saying, Happy and you know it. Randall is saying, Happy birthday.

Christine saying, Happy birthday. Marge saying, The ABCs. Chester saying, ABCs. Brody saying, Happy birthday. He crossed out, Row. Chester sang ABCs. Brody sang happy birthday. He crossed out row, row, row your boat.

I like that. I like that too. We have a correct answer in the room. It's happy birthday. A few folks got it right. Randall, did you get that? I did. They say that you should scrub your hands with soap for 20 seconds or about

the time it takes you to hum happy birthday twice a 2020 mashable article offered alternatives if you become sick of humming happy birthday some of their suggestions included humming the chorus of toto's africa once the pizza bagel jingle twice or the most famous portion of the Star Wars Imperial March. Pizza bagel? Pizza in the morning, pizza in the evening, pizza at any time. When pizza's not a bagel, you can have pizza any time. I knew I could count on somebody in the room to know the pizza bagel jingle, which is probably from, what, 1999 or something.

Next time, put a little more love in it, though. Yeah, sing it. Phil, could you sing happy birthday? I do a real number on happy birthday i i only know the words i can't think of the melody of it pizza in the morning pizza in the evening pizza at every time oh supper when pizza's on a pizza yeah it's like kind of a it's kind of like a grungy rock song i feel like yeah if you just do that twice, you've washed your hands enough. Some kids getting home from school with their skateboards and they're looking for some pizza on a bagel.

Did you just watch this commercial this morning? No, this is buried in my head. Yeah, I think it's more than buried. It's printed on there somewhere. Is there any pizza bagels in your freezer right now? No, I haven't had pizza bagels in years. Question four. The topic is conservation.

What invasive fish that's native to the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean was first spotted in Florida in 1985? Quick answer from Brody. He's the only one. Here's the question again. The topic is conservation. What invasive fish that's native to the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean was first spotted in Florida in 1985? Chester now coming up with an answer. The rest of the room looks stumped. What invasive fish that's native to the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean was first spotted in Florida in 1985? Phil is now keeping score on a whiteboard.

Phil, has that been a real game changer for you over there? It has been. I've been turned against technology sitting back here. I hate it all. I was using a little website, like scoreboard, whatever thing, and it was just, I kept screwing up.

I wanted to be better for you and the show, Spencer. So I've got it all separated into questions so I can go back and reference it. Nice. You know?

Where's the score written? I didn't even see the score there. I just saw check marks. Well, yeah, I'm just tallying each question. I don't have like a total thing lined up. It'll evolve. Stop questioning my methods, Spencer.

It'll evolve and it'll get better. I think you're doing great, Phil. He is. Appreciate it, Randall. Is everybody ready? Do we need more time? Good? I don't like my answer.

Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Logan saying catfish. Alyssa saying cod. Chili without an answer. Randall saying snake We have Logan saying catfish. Alyssa saying cod. Chili without an answer. Randall saying snakehead. Christine saying lionfish. I was going to write that down. Marge saying lionfish.

She drew a lion and a fish. Chester saying bonefish. Brody saying lionfish. The correct answer is lionfish. The room did pretty well. Lionfish are considered one of the worst invasive species in Florida because of their lack of predators there. One study found that the presence of a single lionfish on a coral reef can reduce recruitment of native fish by 79%. The Emerald Coast Open Lionfish Tournament does its best to knock back their numbers

with participants collecting nearly 25,000 lionfish in 2023. Someone just set a record. I don't know if it was in that tournament or not. It was that tournament. It's like 600 of them in one boat or something. It was a new record, and I think with all those lionfish, they go to like a sushi restaurant

nearby who takes them. Pretty cool. Do they taste good? I have no idea. Yes, they're good. Oh, you've had them? You just got to clip the spines on them before you start filleting them. Question five. The topic is gear.

This next great question comes to us via Adam Kremcher for sending this great question. Excuse me. He is not our winner of the week. I messed that up. It is via Adam sorry adam what does the name of the archery company pse stand for okay this is bad because i actually shoot a pse and i don't know you know what chili that is bad that is bad but it was free it's from jason phelps thanks jason what does the name of the archery company p s e stand for brody with a quick answer my first ever compound bow was a psc oh what was it do you remember oh

Yeah. At least I know what you're doing tonight. That's good. We should have a tray of those things in the green room next time. Totally.

Is that what this room next door is, the green room? Isn't that what it's technically supposed to be, Phil? Technically, yes. Although it's not really set up that way. It'll get there. What would it be if it was a green room? Like, what would we do in there? Sit around and.

Oh, okay. And a little, a little fridge. Eat bagel bites. A show meeting. Mm-hmm. Put the kegerator in there. Sure.

You can hobnob with the, with the guests. Mm-hmm. One more time. The topic is gear. What does the Archery Company PSE stand for? Does everybody have an answer? I don't know.

We have Chester and Alyssa and Christine furiously writing. Is everybody ready? Chili? Just no. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Logan saying performance shooting equipment.

Oh my gosh. Alyssa saying pro sportsman experience. Didn't get it. Chili without an gosh. Alyssa saying pro sportsman experience. Didn't get it. Chili without an answer. Randall saying precision shooting equipment. Christine saying precision should be expected. Marge saying polysynthetic urethane. Chester saying professional shooting equipment.

Brody saying precision shooting equipment. The correct answer is professional shooting equipment. Brody saying precision shooting equipment. The correct answer is precision shooting equipment. Now I know. Few folks got it right. PSE was founded by Pete Shepley in 1971. They are known for creating some of the fastest hunting bows in the industry with some approaching speeds of 370 feet per second in a 2020 article by tony hansen he ranked the 10 fastest bows he's ever tested with pse claiming

both fourth and ninth place phil we are halfway through the game of trivia give us a scoreboard update yeah sure thing let's see here we have logan Alyssa with zero points. Chili and Chester have one point apiece. Maggie Smith has two. Christine has three points. And tied up in first place are Randall and Brody with four points apiece. You know, for the ones that you actually write answers for, you're doing really well. I know. I'm looking that positive.

We could score it like the SAT where if you don't get it, isn't that a thing, one of the standardized tests? If you don't guess, you do better than if you get wrong questions. I don't know. Christine, what didn't you like about the inflection in Phil's voice? Can you do it again? When you read your score. I don't remember.

Christine has three points. Here's the thing. I found out if I don't bring enough enthusiasm to the score reporting, they make me do it later with a lot of enthusiasm. It's too much pressure, I don't like it, so I just try to bring it. Oh, thank you. Yeah, your voice is great, the surprise part.

But it's fair. 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. Our northern brothers get irritated. And our raffle and sweepstakes law makes it that they can't join. Whew.

Chris is going to get a book signed by Steve. This Texas national seashore is a popular spring break destination and the longest barrier island in the world. The topic is public lands. This Texas national seashore is a popular spring break destination and the longest barrier island in the world. A few folks in the room are confident. Chili, you seem to know this one. Have you been there? Not a lot.

I've done a lot of partying in my life. Okay. At this place? I know. Actually, I've never been there. But I had a few friends go down to Texas for school and they said... I thought you were giving something away.

I thought you were having a heart attack. Let's keep our eyes on Brody for a little bit after that. Holy cow. Has anybody in the room ever been to this place? Yes. Like in your partying days? place? Yes. Oh, okay. Like in your partying days?

No, fishing. Oh, okay. Here's the question one more time. This Texas national seashore is a popular spring break destination and the longest barrier island in the world. Alyssa, you have some children that are approaching spring break age. You haven't been studying up yet on where they might go. No.

I don't want to know. Okay. There was a big biker rally when I was there, and those guys were partying hard. Is everybody ready? Were you there in the spring? The fall. I know this, and I cannot remember, and I'm so eagerly waiting. Are we ready?

Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Logan saying Great Barrier Reef. Alyssa saying Galveston. Chili saying Corpus Christi. Randall saying Padre Island. Christine saying Pablo. Marge without an answer. Chester without an answer. Brody saying

Padre Island. The correct answer is Padre Island. Padre Island is 113 miles long, about half of which is part of the Padre Island, the correct answer is Padre Island. Padre Island is 113 miles long, about half of which is part of the Padre Island National Seashore. The island is home to dozens of unique animals, including the world's smallest and most endangered sea turtle. It's also a breeding ground for college students, with officials estimating that 120,000 spring breakers come there each year. Brody, how much of a party scene was it while you were there besides the bikers? It was a slow, it was like early October.

So it was a pretty slow time of year. And what was the fishing like? But I'm wondering if the partiers like spent a lot of time on the national seashore versus like the regular beaches and town and all that. I mean, I get where you're going, but it was like, it's like you can, I'm pretty sure you can drive. I'm pretty sure we drove on the national seashore. You can drive the beaches and there was no one around. Question seven.

The topic is woodsmanship. The TV show Survivorman was created by, written by, directed by, and starring this man. The topic is woodsmanship. The TV show Survivorman was created by, written by, directed by, and starring this man. Was a first and last name required? If you give me the last name, that's good enough. We'll talk about when it was on TV in the follow-up factoid. Now you can feel good about giving them pizza whenever they want. Pizza in the evening, pizza at supper time.

When pizza's on a bagel, you can eat pizza any time. You hear that guitar? I don't think that's grunge, though. No, no. That's pretty soulful. 80s hard rock. Yeah, yeah. It sounds like gospel a little bit.

Yeah, it does have a gospel-y... I imagine it evolved over time. Yeah, I think... Well, that lick at the end... That was... That's what I remember. Here's the question again the tv show survivor man was created by written by directed by and starring this man phil did you have the visuals on your

end i did yeah how was it uh a lot of 90s just just wash denim and good good colorful windbreakers and bowl cups. It was great. Oh, man. Does everybody have an answer? Everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Logan saying Bear Grylls. Alyssa without an answer. Chili saying Wesley. Randall saying Les Stroud. Christine saying Steve Rinella.

Marge saying Bear Grylls. Chester saying Bear Grylls. Brody saying Les Stroud. The correct answer is Les Stroud. You know how Elon Musk and Zuckerberg were going to duke it out? Sure. I always felt like these two guys should

survive it out. Bear Grylls and this guy. I'd have picked Les Stroud. Naked and afraid. Oh yeah. Survivorman aired on the Outdoor Life Network science channel and Discovery Channel from 2005 to 2015. The show had eight seasons and 51 episodes. Stroud gained a reputation of being legit among fellow survivalists because he filmed himself instead of bringing a camera crew. He said his worst experience on the show was when he got a parasite in the swamps of Georgia that took him a year to get rid of.

Question eight. The topic is cooking. Known for their distinctive color, this brand of Komodo-style grills was created in 1974. Known for their distinctive color, this brand of Komodo-style grills was created in 1974. Brody with a quick answer. The rest of the room not quite as confident. Chili and Logan also have an answer. Randall, are you going to get this one right?

I don't have an answer yet. I'm not sure what a Kamado style grill is. Brody, do you have one of these? No, but I think you could, I mean, you can't tell them what kind of grill this is. That's giving away too much. I. That's giving away too much. I think that's giving away too much. Well, I did tell you what style of grill it is.

Oh, yeah. I guess. Kamado, Komodo, not sure how you say it. Komodo style grills created in 1974. This is question eight. We will get a scoreboard update from Phil after this. Is everybody ready? Randall, are you going to get this one right?

I think we're waiting on you. Everybody good? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Logan saying big green egg. Alyssa saying Weber. Chili saying green egg. Randall saying egg. Christine saying Weber.

Marge saying green egg. Chester saying green egg. Brody saying green egg. The correct answer is big green egg. I don't think egg is good enough. The only one who got it right is green egg. I think green egg is good enough. Okay.

I think I marked everyone who said green egg or big green egg, but can you raise your hand if you said green egg or big green egg? I said egg, Phil. All right, got that. I don't think that's good enough, Randall. Sorry. Is there also a little green egg or is it just big green egg? I think they probably sell some of their model line as an XL, a large.

They probably have a mini green egg. But the brand is big green egg. Big green egg. Okay. So the brand isn't green egg. That's right, Randall. Some of the oldest cooking vessels in the world. They were created about 3,000 years ago in China and were made of clay.

Big Green Egg was one of the first American companies to start mass producing the Kamado Grill. As the name states, they are known for their egg-like shape and distinctive shade of green. And their size. Give us their point. And their size. Give us their big size. We have to say goodbye to Alyssa, Logan, Chili, Chester, Maggie, and Christine. Oh, it's Brody and Randall? Shocker. Chili, how'd you know?

It's Brody and Randall. Randall's got six points. Brody has seven. Listen, if Randall's not comfortable with the big, the green egg. It's Brody and Randall. Randall's got six points. Brody has seven. Listen, if Randall's not comfortable with the green egg... It's fine. It's fine. I don't want to win by whining. We can get rid of it. I think you were missing a few...

We would still be tied. It would add a lot of tension to the last couple questions. It's like General Motors and I just had motors. How close were you to putting green in there? I wasn't. I was was gonna write the egg i was gonna add an article not a not a descriptor question nine the topic is fishing this next great question comes to us via garrett corliss hagfish and blank are the only two surviving groups of jawless fish in the world. What?

Hagfish and Blank are the only surviving groups of jawless fish in the world. The room is stumped. It just came to Brody. He had to just tap the whiteboard on his head a few more times. Hagfish and blank are the only surviving groups of jawless fish in the world. Brody is the only person who has come up with an answer. If he were to get this right and Randall were to get this wrong, that would seal the victory for Brody. Hagfish and blank. Brody, how did this come to you?

Chili's just completely opted out. What's that? How did this come to you, Brody? You just remembered a jawless fish. I don't know. Just came out of the ether. Stuck a little thinking. Brody. You just remembered a jawless fish. I don't know. Just came out of the ether. Stuck a little thinking. Mm-hmm.

Randall was hoping for a clue there from you. I just don't know. And I don't, look, I could be wrong. Mm-hmm. Hagfish and blank are the only surviving groups of jawless fish in the world. This came straight from the National Park Service's website, also backed up by Encyclopedia Britannica. I'm not making up the groups or any of that terminology.

Hagfish and blank, the only surviving groups of jawless fish in the world. Chester, do you have this one right? Doubt it. Okay. Randall, I think we are waiting on you. A lot on the line to tell me what the other jawless fish group is.

Is everybody ready? It's not even a fish. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Logan saying blowfish. Alyssa saying jellyfish. Chili saying jawless. Randall saying jellyfish. Christine saying jellyfish.

Marge saying dogfish. Chester saying jellyfish. Brody saying dogfish. Chester saying jellyfish. Brody saying lamprey. The correct answer is lamprey. Brody got it right. It's wrapped up. The win. What's a jellyfish?

It's not a fish? No. What is it? What about a starfish? Would you have taken starfish? Jawless fish are some of the oldest fish in the world, appearing in the fossil record about 470 million years ago. Most types of jawless fish have gone extinct, except for the 50 species of hagfish and lamprey that are left.

Besides missing a jaw, some features that make jawless fish unique are their suction cup mouths, cylindrical bodies, and lack of scales. Brody's wrapped up the victory, but we have one question left. The topic is hunting. What Canadian province leads the country in record book entries for mountain goat, mountain lion, Canada moose, grizzly bear, Sitka black-tailed deer, and Columbia black-tailed deer? This is the second question for our listeners north of the border. Les Stroud is a Canadian himself. Here's another Canadian question. The topic is hunting. What Canadian province leads the country in record book entries for mountain goat, mountain lion, Canada moose,

grizzly bear, Sitka black tail deer, and columbia black-tailed deer does everybody have an answer randall do you have this one right i think so brody but you have this one right i shouldn't even have answered i think so it doesn't matter i think the answer's in the question if you really look at everybody ready go ahead and reveal your answers we have logan saying british columbia lissa saying british columbia chili saying bc randall saying bc the entire room said british columbia and they got it right the correct answer is british columbia as brody pointed out the columbia black tail deer was a hint british columbia has the most boon and crocket entries in the world for mountain goat and Canada moose

and is the only province that has an entry for Columbia black-tailed deer and Sitka black-tailed deer. They have the most Boone and Crockett entries in the country at 3,506, which is followed by Alberta at 1,799 and Saskatchewan at 1,649. Brody is our winner with, what was it, eight correct answers? Nine? How many did you have right, Brody? He had nine. I don't know.

Nine correct answers. Came up short. Question one, threw off your perfect game for the happiest, most meaningful work on earth. You were the only one to say fisherman. I'm not a forester. I'm a fisherman. Well done, Marge. Brodydy what happens next is you get to choose where the 500 donation from meat eater goes what's it going to be um let's do uh friends of the missouri river breaks oh i think

that might be a new one for us what do we like about them? They're just, they take care, they're always out there doing good work, habitat work in the Missouri River Breaks area, which is one of my favorite places in the world. They can use a little help. As a board member of that organization, I thank you. Now, Randall, I feel like

we've had you. Why did I not know that? I feel like we've had you donate to something with the Charles and... That would be self-dealing. I mean, there's all sorts of. I'm very disappointed. I didn't know you were a friend of the Missouri River. I am indeed. Officially for about a year now.

What did you donate to them before? Because there was something we talked about. They were ripping out fences in the Charles. Oh, that was a, that was a keep it public. A different, a different group. Allow Randall to explain what they do better. What do we like about that? It's an organization that works on stewardship education, and they organize cleanups and plantings of cottonwood trees and all kinds of stuff.

But Friends organizations are all over the country, and they essentially serve as like a sort of an auxiliary to the land management agency. So they get folks on the ground to help the BLM or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service or whatever the relevant agency is do what they need to do to safeguard these places. Randall, who else are you a board member for? I was a board member of Keep It Public.

And no, I think that's about it. I don't know. Yeah. I've never, uh, never thought about before how the friends groups are like all over the country. The most local one, I think is like friends of highlight and they do as much or more maybe than like the agency that actually manages that land. I mean, a lot of these agencies are just super underfunded and to get people on the ground doing like to undertake projects that require a lot of manpower and like volunteer hours.

It's just too much for the land managers. So, yeah, it's like some of these groups across the country are pretty impressive, like in terms of just getting stuff done and speaking out on behalf of those places. $500 going to Randall. Just kidding. What's the organization one more time? The Friends of the Missouri Bricks. $500 coming their way
