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 Steve Rinella, Giannis Poutelis, Brody Henderson, Chester Floyd, Corinne Schneider, Corey Calkins, Randall Williams, and Seth Morris. This is normally a 10-round quiz show with questions from Meat Eater's four verticals,

which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. But today's show is a little different. This is our Christmas episode of Meat Eater Trivia, which has historically been Family Feud. Now, Steve hates when we play this game, and in the past, he's been very vocal about it. Steve, would you like to tell us why you don't like this? Well, I don't like it because, Phil, can you turn my things up? Oh, geez.

That's reason number one. Yeah, I can't hear anything either. It's getting better. Thank you, Phil. I just wanted to hear my own description why I don't like it. Sure. What I don't like about it

is what they're asking you is they're asking you what a bunch of unvetted yahoos think about something yeah so you go out and i don't know where you find them you find a bunch of could be total idiots i don't know like outside of a sears in kenosha yeah and you go like hey what's your uh name a shape of christmas cookie okay and so then these unvetted Yehoos name Christmas cookie shapes. Some amount of time goes by.

Yep. And then you ask someone, when you ask a bunch of unvetted Yehoos what they think of when they think of Christmas cookies, what did they say? You don't like that? No. Okay. You have to put yourself in their shoes. Whose shoes? I never even met them.

The unvetted games. It's just a waste of time. Sure. Well, you sort of described why you don't like it there, but Phil has also put together a compilation of you bringing the holiday cheer to last year's Christmas episode. Play the clip, Phil. Show me. Jesus. Not on there.

War on Christmas. Here's the whole thing, though. What's up? Like, who cares about these 100 people? I don't know what kind of idiots they're asking. Hunter, do you solve all your problems by just randomly asking people what they think? It's called voting. Totally uncredentialed strangers, what they think.

It's called voting. That's brutalentialed strangers what they think. It's called voting. That's brutal. The people aren't listening to the question. You said, what do you need to wrap a present? So it's like you're implying that there's a present. If you said, what do I need to dress a person? You wouldn't go, a person. It is so stupid.

Can you imagine if subjects that he surveyed in some way or another? This would be like a completely different process. This was half of all the subjects. Top seven? Take your pulse and then ask him? Steve, you can just sit it out next year if you'd like. I'm not coming. Dude, there's no

way in hell I'm playing that next year, man. Because I'd have to know who the hundred people are. That sounds familiar, Steve. You remember sharing those opinions. I'm surprised how consistent my opinion is. A year later. Now, Steve, I've got some good news and some bad news for you today.

The bad news is we're playing Family Feud again this year. This whole episode is Family Feud. Here's the good news. These are questions that I came up with, so it doesn't feel like an episode from the Game Show Network. And the people interviewed were Meat Eater employees and Meat Eater listeners, so you can't complain about their answers.

Or you could, but then I'd remind you that these are your fans and your colleagues. Oh. He'll complain about them more. No, I'll play now. I'll play now. I told Spencer I was going to sit through this part and leave. He made that threat, and I said, okay, if you wanted to leave,

I thought there was a chance Steve was going to get up and leave. I asked Randall the parking lot of what we're doing. He didn't even know. And here you are. Now here's how this is going to work. Our crew is split up into two teams. Each round will start with a player from each team facing off to determine who gets control

of the board. During the face-off, whoever provides the highest ranking answer will get to choose if their team passes or plays. During main play, each team member will provide answers they think are on the board. If you get one wrong, you'll hear this. If you get one right, you'll hear this. If you get three strikes, then the other team gets a chance to steal. When a steal happens, the entire team gets to come together to decide on an answer, which their captain will provide. There are four rounds, with the point values being doubled in round three and tripled in round four. The team with the most points at the end will get to choose where the $500 conservation donation goes.

They then get to play fast money for a chance to add another $100 to that donation. You know how culture has agreed on what outer space sounds like? Like, you'd never show outer space in a documentary and have someone playing a banjo yes it's like a sensation it's a sense of right how did how does a bell mean you got it right i don't know it's uh it's uh it's more it's more the culture has decided that a bell is you got it right it's just uplifting the other one it decided that a bell is you got it right. It's just uplifting.

The other one, it kind of hurts to hear that. Oh, no, I get that one. That one sounds very negative. Shrink down. Now, to remind everyone how this is going to work, we're going to do a practice round face-off where it's Steve against Yanni. This is just the face-off. This is how we will start each round.

Do you guys understand what you're about to do? You have your bells. I've never understood this. You have your bells in front of you. I am going to ask you this prompt. The first one who rings in gets to provide the answer, right? So if Yanni rings in, he gets to provide the answer. Well, if he's wrong.

If he gets the number one answer, it's over. He gets to decide if his team is going to pass or play. If he doesn't get the number one answer, say he gives an answer that's not on the board or he gives a second or third or fourth best answer, you get a chance to trump him and provide a better ranking answer. Just me. Just you. Thanks, that's all

much clearer now. Okay, this is why we're going. This is why you got a good seat because you don't have to know what's going on. This is why we're going to do a practice round. What do you got, Chester? Didn't we have whiteboards last year? Because how are we all going to be like trying to be like,

trying to figure out, or is it individual? It's individual. The only time your team will come together as a group is if your team is stealing. I will acknowledge when that's going to happen so you know when it's time to put your heads together. So you're going to ask me a question. I'm going to ask you and Yanni a question. And then you're going to

ring in when you think you know the answer. Don't hit it too hard or it doesn't make any noise. Are you ready? A reminder, this is just a practice here. This is just a practice. Okay. No pressure. If there's ten right answers,

I feel like I'll know an answer right off the bat. Here we go. Top five answers are on the board. Name a Christmas cartoon that plays on TV every... Steve was first. Steve, you get to give the answer. Charlie Brown's Christmas. Charlie Brown, number two answer. 26 people said that. So now here's where this...

Yanni would get a chance to trumpet. Yanni, can you provide the number one answer? Oh, I know what it is. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Rudolph. Show me Rudolph. That is the number one answer. In a second, we will have a screen behind Bill. Here's what would happen.

Yanni, you would get to choose if your team is going to pass or play this category. Okay. Understood? He got number one? He got number one. You got number two. And how many is it? Five of them?

Top five in that case. You think you understand that? Oh, yeah. I understand that. Now, over here, we've got the Steve Rinella family. Steve, introduce us to your team the way you would as if they were your family. Who do you got sitting next to you? I don't really understand.

Just tell us who's on your team. That's all. I'm here with Brody Henderson. At this part of the show. Yeah, yeah. Exactly. It's exactly what they do. Chester Floyd.

You'd say he lives in a trailer park and welds for people, this custom welding, something like that. He lives, Brody lives here in town. He's a former fishing guide,

a dedicated father of two, has a lovely wife. Chester Floyd. That's a great detail. Former fishing guide, dedicated father of one. Okay. Has a lovely wife who That's a great detail. Former fishing guide, dedicated father of one. Has a lovely wife who's a photographer. And Corinne Schneider.

Untested in the parenting realm. She has dogs, though. Untested in the wife realm. Who knows? Okay. Very good. And they're going against the Yanni Putellis family.

Yanni, introduce us to your team. Steve has set the bar quite high. Well, Spencer, today I brought all my brothers with me. Now, we got the same daddy but different mothers. My brother Randall here, he got daddy's smarts. He's a doctor, PhD. My brother Seth over here, well, he landed in the same pile with me, and we're just hunting and fishing dudes.

And then down there at the end, my other brother Corey, he's the one that looks most like a Christmas elf with that cute little red beard. Him and Randall could be little elves. Little? Very good. Is everyone ready to play the feud? Hit the music, Phil.

Normally, you'd clap during this part. He's clapping. You called 100 people. He's like clapping. There you go. You called 100 people. I surveyed 100 people. Half of them were your employees. Half of them were Meat Eater fans. Holy cow, how long did that take?

My employees. It was very quick. I was using a Google form so I could capture their answers and then go in and comb through them. Here we go. The first round, we have Steve versus Yanni. Are we ready? We're doing the same thing over again. Same thing over again.

Are we ready? Phil, are we ready? We're ready. I'm going to need your help to see who hits the bell first. Last year, we had a problem with that, so we're going to trust that everyone has a good answer. Steve's shaking like he drank a little too much coffee. Here we go. I surveyed 100 people.

Top five answers are on the board. If Seth and Chester were wise men, what gifts would they bring? I think we had Steve first. The problem is I'm already reading it. I think we had Steve first. Yeah, sorry about that. Because I had read it earlier. We are.

What do you mean? Give us your answer, Steven. We are pretty wise. You're running out of time. This needs to be quick. Fish and lures. Walleye lures. Steve says, show me walleye lures.

Number two answer on the board. Fishing tackle. 34 people said it. That means that Yanni has a chance to steal. Yanni, if you can provide the number one answer. Tell me, if Seth and Chester were wise men, what gifts would they bring?

Yanni? How much time do I have? You're running out of it. What gifts would Chester and Seth bring? Why would they not bring a fishing tackle first? Ammunition. Ammunition. Ammunition.

Show me ammunition. Wrong. Steve, you get to choose now if your team is going to pass or play this question. As a reminder, if you play and you get three strikes, that means their team gets a chance to steal. So your team will need to come up with all five answers. Man, this is tough because I don't even know what I'd bring, Steve. Steve, are you going to pass or play? It's more fun to play. Oh, I don't really understand.

You're going to play. Okay. Brody, we are up to you. I surveyed 100 people, and I said if Seth and Chester were wise men, what gifts would they bring? I shouldn't be talking to him. No, this is individual here.

I know one for sure. Beer. Don't tell him. Show me beer. Number four answer was alcohol. Good answer. On this TV show, are they as generous as you're being with answers? Like walleye jigs became fishing tackle?

Chester, we're up to you. If you and Seth were wise men, what gifts would you bring? Man. We've had two correct answers given. There are three left. I think I know something on there, Chester. The number two and the number four have been said. That means one, three, and five

are left. Chester. There's just so many things if I were to bring gifts. I know what it is. What's your answer? Can't they talk amongst themselves? No, they cannot quite yet. Can I write them a little note? Do not. Chester. There's just so many things. I know what it is. Can't they talk amongst themselves? No, they cannot quite yet. Can I write them a little note? Do not. Chester, give me your answer. Dude. What would you bring? What would I bring? I would. You're like, I'm not telling them something.

I'm just saying, think about it. Think about what these guys brought. Gold? Like, the price is not an object. I think this is getting a little too tippy tippy here. Frankincense? Come on. Come on.

Murr? Hey. I don't think you're helping. Sky's the limit. You're right. It's gold. They're bringing like a pothole. Say gold, Chester.

What would you bring that baby Jesus if you were the wise man? I would say furs. Show me furs. That is your first strike I know what's number one on that Nobody said furs Corinne, your team has one strike now If Seth and Chester were wise men

What gifts would they bring? Filets o' fish No Corinne says filet o' fish Show me filet o' fish Number one answer I was board was walleye. 41 people surveyed said it's walleye. Now, can I go again?

We are now up to Steve. I'll remind our audience. A boat. We've had the first, second, and fourth answer given. There are three and five left. Oh, my gosh. Steve says that Seth and Chester would bring a walleye boat. Show me walleye boat.

Not on there. We're too generous. Your team has two strikes, Brody. Great game. Last time, Brody said beer, which was the number four answer. Your team now has two strikes. Here's what's on the line. If you don't get this right, then we will go to the Putellas family,

who will have a chance to come together to discuss what they think their answer would be. If they would then provide the right answer, they steal the points. If they get it wrong, then the Ranella family wins. Brody, tell me, if Seth and Chester were wise men, what gifts would they bring? So far, this is looking like a typical weekend for Chester. Walleye fishing tackle and alcohol I don't know Deer meat Show me deer meat

Not on the board That is three strikes for the Ronell family We are over to the Patelis family There are two left on the board Number three and number five answer. They are now coming together to discuss. You can talk aloud. There's nothing on the line. If you get this wrong it is just over. Just thinking about asking people.

This is where that unbent people thing starts to kick in. A lot of people know me as the flip-flop flusher. Maybe it's flip-flops. I like that. That could be good. What about just like hunting gear? No. Close. just like hunting gear when he suggested hunting gear his opponent Steve said good now a camera guitar a guitar cameras in Zen well the problem there is

that they don't both play guitar we We don't both choose in either. That's just Chester. I'll remind you of the prompt. If Seth and Chester were wise men, what gifts would they bring? The correct answer provided were the number one answer, walleye. The number two answer, fishing tackle. The number four answer, alcohol. Yanni, we are going to need your family to provide an answer.

What are you going to decide on? What's it going to be, brothers? I'll say flip-flops. Flip-flops? Flip-flops, sure. We're going to go flip-flops. Show me flip-flops. Not on the board.

That means the Ranella family takes the points. We have number three and number five left. Cheese curds. Do you have any other guesses you want to throw out there? Number three was bait, and number five was canned food. Oh, yeah. You guys love canned food. You're right.

It is a bunch of idiots. Who are these people?

I don't know. The old feller, you know. Phil, are you ready? Yes. Yes, I am ready. Okay. Do you have the 15 second timer? Do I need that bell? I don't have a timer going.

I can just yell it. Does he need the bell? Because I'm going to be typing throughout this, Spencer. I need someone else to keep time. Yeah, you're doing great, Phil. Here you go. Appreciate your handle. No, you don't need the bell. You don't need the bell? Because I'm going to be typing throughout this, Spencer. I need someone else to keep time. Yeah, you're doing great, Phil. Here you go. Appreciate it. No, you don't need the bell.

You don't need the bell. Can we take time? And am I going to be able to read them too, or are you just saying them? I'm just saying them to you, and you need to answer as fast as possible. You only have 15 seconds for five questions. Look at how defeated those elves look over there. Are you ready? I didn't realize we were playing this game.

It's like an elf unemployment line. It's like the game over? You guys are done. I stood up late last night learning all the facts I could about the North Pole in preparation for Christmas trivia, and then I just asking what so-and-so thinks about what and what. Steve, are you ready? I'm still confused about what we're doing here.

Steve is going. He's going to go very fast. Steve, the time starts after i finish reading the first question okay good luck if santa gave you a whitetail property what state would you want it in montana name something you can hunt at the north pole caribou what's the best tasting bird from the 12 days of christmas partridge name a hunting or fishing gift that's hard to wrap with rifle name someone phil would invite to his christmas party Partridge. Name a hunting or fishing gift that's hard to wrap. Rifle.

Name someone Phil would invite to his Christmas party. I have no idea. You're done. Okay. So you got four of the five answers done. We will now go through and see how you did. Phil, are you ready for this part? I'm not ready for this part. I got to give point.

I got to type in all the points Do we need the visual Phil or not? Well we don't but I spent a lot of time on it Okay we're gonna let Phil If you just wanna keep this going I think we should honor Phil's work And get the visual Who would Phil invite to dinner?

Some banter Luke Skywalker The inventor of Legos He did not provide an answer Some banter. Luke Skywalker. The inventor of Legos. Yeah. He did not provide an answer. Randall, how did you feel about Steve's performance there? I probably got one or two of them right.

I kind of lost track. I just started thinking of all the birds mentioned in the 12 Days of Christmas. I don't like it. Geese a-laying. I think you got four, right? Geese, swans. What was the first question again? Swans are singing. If Santa gave you a whitetail property, what state would you want it in?

Does that mean me? Well, I don't know if it meant me, because that way I could just go down there real easy. Did it mean me or people? People survey. Oh, my God. Oh, that's not going to be anything. You dropped the ball. I mean, I thought you meant me.

Well, no, it might be on there. 50 people or meat-eater employees that also live in Montana. I think you got all four of those. How do we find out? Here we go. I said, if Santa gave you a whitetail property, what state would you want it in? You said Montana. Nobody gave Montana a name.

Yeah, well, I didn't know what you meant. A big zero. I said, name something you can hunt at the north pole you said caribou number one answer 60 people said caribou what's the best tasting bird from the 12 days of christmas you said partridge number one answer 41 people said partridge i said name a hunting or fishing gift that's hard to wrap. You said rifle. Gun or bow was the number three answer. 17 people said that.

You did not provide an answer for who Phil would invite to his Christmas party. I've been on the edge of my seat this whole time. You just don't know anything about Phil? You couldn't think of who he would potentially invite? No. We're not close personally. Well, I mean, like his wife and family. I don't know.

I should have said that. Okay. Phil, can you hide that for Brody? So Brody, okay. Let's bring Brody in. Yeah, I don't know why I didn't just say his wife. But I feel like that wouldn't be in. You don't usually invite your wife to your Christmas day.

Yeah, you're like. They're just kind of there. They're part of it. They're part of it. If I said that. They don't come home, I was never invited. It'd be weird

if you did that. I would get in trouble if I invited my wife to our Christmas. Hey, babe, you can come if you want. Now, Brody,

your partner, your partner, Carrie. I don't know what's going on. I'm going to ask you five questions very quick.

Your partner, partner Steve did good Your team needs 200 points How many did they have Phil? How many questions? Oh that's how it's scored Five questions and you have 20 seconds to answer And I got to get them all right? It's easy

You just need to provide the best answer you can think of He's not asking you He's asking you what other hosers have said. Yeah, it wasn't clear enough. Are you ready, Brody? Yeah, what kind of questions are they? Just like the questions you've already answered. You have 20 seconds.

If you repeat one of Steve's answers, I will tell you to try again. Your time starts after I finish reading the first question. If Santa gave you a whitetail property, what state would you want it in? Iowa. Name something you can hunt at the North Pole. Polar bears.

What's the best tasting bird from the 12 days of Christmas? Turkey. Name a hunting or fishing gift that's hard to wrap. Can I hear that again? Name a hunting or fishing gift that's hard to wrap. Can I hear that again? Name a fishing gift that's hard to wrap. A rod. Name someone Phil would invite to his Christmas party.

Taylor Swift. Okay, Taylor Swift. Nice answer. That's a good one. Do you think he provided enough points there to get them to 200? I think Rod is number one. Would she wear one of those goofy showgirl outfits with the sequins and whatnot on it?

Yeah. Like what Spencer's got on it. Phil, are we ready to bring up the board? Sorry, Phil. I don't even know. Sorry. Steve struggled with that answer as well. Steve didn't even provide one. Brody, that was a great

answer, I'm going to be honest. I would have had to set a Pokemon character. That's all I could come up with. But Steve, maybe next year you could work on getting T-Swift for our company holiday party. I've said it before. She's linked up with PETA, man.

Oh, really? Fillory ready so we don't have to hear them talk about Taylor Swift anymore. Which one? It's about shaking it off. I like that one. Okay. As a reminder, your team needs 200 points to claim a victory. If Santa gave you a whitetail property, what state would you want it in?

Brody said Iowa. Number one answer. 31 people said 200 points. 31 people. That was the number one answer. Name something you can hunt at the North Pole. You said polar bear. That was the number two answer.

22 people said that. What's the best tasting bird from the 12 days of Christmas? You said turkey, which is not in the song. There are no turkeys in the 12 days of Christmas. But your partner gave the number one answer.

Name a hunting or fishing gift that's hard to wrap. You said fishing rod. That's the number one answer. Name a hunting or fishing gift that's hard to wrap. You said fishing rod. That's the number one answer. 41 people said it, and I think your team won. You didn't even need the Taylor Swift, which nobody said. You crushed it. Can we hear Phil's answers, though?

Well, okay. They weren't Phil's answers. Well, I understand that. So when I said name a whitetail property you'd want to state in, do you guys want to guess what the other answers were? Kansas. Kansas was number three. Illinois was number five.

Wisconsin was number two. Texas was number four. The only ones you're missing are Missouri and Michigan. Name something you can hunt at the North Pole. Steve's really not going to like these answers. He didn't like the polar bear one. Do you want to guess what the other answers were? Seal.

There's very few polar bear hunting opportunities. What did we say? Seals? No, those were not on there. Muskox was on there. Reindeer. Reindeer was the same as caribou. That was the number one answer. The ones you're missing were elves and penguins. Penguins don't live in the North Pole.

I know, but five people who answered this thought that. Those people standing outside the Sears in Kenosha thought this. Now what's the best tasting bird from the 12 Days of Christmas? Partridge was number one. The other answers were obviously the other birds. Geese, turtle dove, French hen, and swan. Swan.

And then name a hunting or fishing gift that's hard to wrap. Fishing rod was number one. Do you want to guess the other ones? Corn. Or tail properties. Nope. Deer feeders. And ATV. Boat was number two. Do you want to guess the other ones? Corn. Whitetail properties. Nope. Deer feeders.

And ATV. Boat was number two. 18 people said that. Decoys, that was number four. Treestand and taxidermy were the other ones. And then name someone Phil would invite to his Christmas party. You guys failed to get any of the six answers. We had his fellow thespians, like the people that he has this show with.

Steve was the number two answer. That's cute two answer. Spencer was the number three answer. I didn't answer this. Corinne was the number four answer. His family was the number five answer, and Yanni was the number six answer. There you go. Steve, your team won. You added the $100.

You now have a $600 donation. None of those. Where is your $600 donation going? You going to talk it over with your family? Do we need to refill the land access thing? Do I just do it, or should we? You can offer something that we can agree. I would be for doing our own land access initiative.

Yeah. Agreed. Land access initiative, $600 going their way. Do we have any updates on that? We're just building for 2024. No, we're just building the pot right now. Yeah, but we should tell people about what just went down with it, right? Go ahead. Did that finalize?

Montana State Land Board approved it 4-1. The Bobcat Bend? 328-acre new wildlife management area in Montana with, I think, like two miles of river access. Yep. Deer, turkeys, fishing. I'm sure there's pheasants out there, ducks, geese, all sorts of good stuff. I saw the Montana FWP.

A couple hundred miles east of here. A few hundred miles east of here. Montana FWP even posted about it on Instagram. They were so dang excited. It's phenomenal. LAI helps fund things like that. $600 going their way. Are we done with Family Feud?

Are you guys over it? You hate it? No, I like this new format, but I'll pick the questions next year. Can I host next year? Now, last time you volunteered to host, I think you regretted about five minutes into the episode. Do you think you would regret hosting this episode? No, no, no. I'd be good.

I'd be happy. I mean, I'd rather host it than play it. Okay. I'll talk to you in November next year. We'll see. I'll take your temperature. You'll have to tell me how you find all these people to ask. Okay.

That's daunting, but I'll figure it out. We can do that. A little guidance. Join us next year for more Family Feud Christmas Edition Meat Eater Employee Fan Edition. Join us next week for more. Merry Christmas. I'm going to do this. I'm going to do this.
