Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins.
I am not your host, Spencer Newhart, but instead I'm his wife, Shelby Huber, and I am joined by some lovely folks today, the other Meat Eater wives and girlfriends.
So we're going to go around the room and introduce some new faces.
Jennifer, do you want to start?
I can start. I'm Jennifer Jones.
Microphone, Jennifer!
I already forgot.
Jennifer Jones,
married for 21 lovely years
to Giannis Boutelis.
21?
21!
No way!
Yes, round of applause.
It can be done.
What's the secret?
What's the secret to 21 years?
The secret,
the secret,
you just gotta let it go sometimes.
Good to know.
I'm Sarah Calkins, and I'm married to Corey Calkins with a meat eater.
And I'm married for less than nine years.
Yeah.
That's a long time.
You look pretty good.
We look like twins.
I can confirm.
It's a siblings or married deal?
I wasn't going to say anything, but I might have thought it a couple times.
It's questionable.
It's funny.
Kelsey Morris.
I am married to Seth Morris.
For how long?
Two years.
Two long years.
And what do you do?
Oh, I'm an artist.
Very talented.
She did the stare. Very talented. She did the stare.
Very talented.
Right here.
Sell yourself.
www.kbrayartworks.com
There it is.
I am Alex Eigen, soon to be married to Meat Eaters' Max Barta in almost two weeks.
Yeah, very excited.
We almost didn't let you come because you're not a wife or a girlfriend.
I know.
I think I'm the only meat eater fiance.
Yeah.
That's exciting.
Yeah.
You're going to vacate that spot and we need a new one.
We do.
Anybody?
Raise your hand.
Adrian Taylor, married to Phil.
Yeah.
How are you feeling?
Adrian's the reigning champ here, guys.
So she's got to defend her title.
Oh, she's going down.
Yeah.
We will see what happens.
I think it was a fluke.
Not a lot of confidence down on that end of the table.
No, but also not any nerves.
Oh, okay.
Low pressure.
Very low pressure.
I'm Sydney Williams, married to Randall Williams for nine years.
And she's a real doctor.
So, Dr. Sidney, is there pressure on your end from Randall?
Overconfidence, I think, more than pressure.
Okay.
He feels really strongly that I'll do well. Overconfidence from you or from Randall?
No, not from me at all.
Only from Randall.
He's like, you're going to do great.
And I was like, I don't know.
We'll see.
All right.
Well, confidence is confidence. We'll take it. I'm Carrie Henderson,, you're going to do great. And I was like, I don't know. We'll see. All right. Well, confidence is confidence.
We'll take it.
I'm Carrie Henderson and I'm married to Brody Henderson, obviously.
And I think it's like 19 years.
I really should know this.
We've been together a long time.
When's your anniversary?
It's in September.
September 23rd.
Good job.
Yeah.
A little pop quiz.
Yeah, I know.
I think it was 2007.
So if anybody wants to do the quick math, you can.
Nope.
All right.
No math questions today, I hope.
We're in the clear.
Katie Finch, and I am married to Steven Rinella.
And I was trying to shit talk you there, but you weren't engaging
with the shit talk.
So I really came
and I just,
I'm not going to do well,
but I'd still like to shit talk.
Spencer did tell me
that Katie sent a message
because you weren't
supposed to be here,
but you moved your schedule around
so she could come
beat these bitches.
It's on.
It's on.
Katie, what place
did you come in last time?
Oh!
I don't know.
Shots fired!
I want to say it was second.
I think you're like middle of the pack near the top of the middle.
Right?
I enjoy it.
This is exactly what I wanted.
And last but not least here Sam Bates I am not married
to Ryan Callahan
and I've been
working at MeatEater for
five years now
so really I'm here
because I work here
I'm connected to Ryan
you've played an episode prior. I played, I think,
a couple episodes. The first episode, I really did not understand the rules. And apparently that
would, yeah, apparently that didn't go well. And then the second time I got two answers right.
Hey, take what you can get. Coming in hot. Hopefully I'll get three right.
Or does that add some confidence? Are you feeling more confident?
Absolutely.
Okay, okay. I love to hear it.
Well, if you're not familiar at home, this is a 10-round quiz show with questions from Meat Eaters for 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.
Now, before we get going, we have a zero percenter question of the week.
This tests how much knowledge players have retained
from previous shows.
The question was from
the last Wives episode
and the topic was
conversation...
conservation.
Excuse me.
And nobody got it right.
So we'll see if you guys
get it this time.
Oh, dear.
Short-short memories.
That was a long time ago.
When was that?
It was like a year and a half ago.
I think it was in November.
I listened to it.
Alright, well we'll see if anyone remembers this.
What character, created by the Forest Service
in 1970, used the
catchphrase, give a hoot,
don't pollute?
I remember that this didn't make sense.
Does this count?
It's like Willie the Owl or something.
It doesn't.
It's not alliteration.
It was something weird.
It is an owl, though.
It's an owl, and his name is not anything you would think.
Willie's close.
Do you want me to tell you?
Woozie.
Woozie.
It was a W.
Do I get points for that?
It was a W.
In your heart.
You get a heart point.
You get the only one you didn't get.
The incorrect answers given were Mr. Owl, Oscar Owl, Plucky the Owl, Ollie the Owl, and Wally the Owl.
So a lot of, everyone knew it was an owl.
All better answers than the real one.
Spencer loves Woodsy Owl, actually.
I thrifted him this big bag of vintage, like, buttons.
And there was a Woodsy Owl holographic one in there.
And he's,'s like kept it in
his office ever since it's near and dear to his heart uh we also have an infrequently asked
question for today if you have a trivia related question for the crew send it to trivia at the
meat eater.com with the subject line ifaq erin shelton wants to know every episode you have a
shelby index i'm curious how she feels about answering your trivia questions every week.
Does she feel like it's a chore or is she excited to play each time?
Also, is she competitive about her standing among other people's scores?
Well, Aaron, I have mixed feelings.
I do not love being a perpetual loser because I am competitive. And I'm the only loser who consistently has their losing score announced during every game.
You know, don't love that.
But I do like to play.
I get excited when he comes and asks me.
It's like the second he's done writing questions, he comes and it's like, doesn't matter what I'm doing.
He's like, can you play trivia right now?
Okay.
And I do think it helps him.
I hope it helps him write a more well-rounded set of questions.
But some other folks in here have actually been an index.
Like Yanni used Jennifer here.
And I think Sydney and Katie Carey, you were all indexes as well.
How did you guys like participating?
Yeah, it was okay.
If there are any plant questions, those are always from me, by the way, from Yana.
So you're welcome.
But yeah, yeah.
I don't know that I thought about the losing part though.
So now, yeah, I'm going to think about that.
People ask me all the time.
They're like, oh, Shelby, is that fun?
I'm like, no.
You're always telling me how badly you beat me.
How about you guys?
Did you enjoy it?
I didn't even remember doing it.
Okay.
But maybe.
So not too bad at least.
Is there a Spencer index for today's game?
You know, to be honest, he actually wrote all these questions as well.
I did ask my sister these questions.
Is there a Shelby index?
Yeah, how'd you do?
So I got eight of them right.
Wow.
To be fair, I, like, cheated.
I mean, kind of.
I mean, I live with the guy.
We consume a lot of the same media.
You know, there's a reason I'm not playing today.
My sister ended up getting five right.
And she's even more removed from Meat Eater than I am. So we'll see.
There's no housekeeping today.
So with that, we're on to the game of trivia.
Play the drop, Phil.
Oh, boy.
Look, I need to know what I stand to win for everything.
Yeah, fancy, right?
How's that?
If you guys are wearing headphones, you'd be hearing the drop right now.
But it's just for the audience at home, apparently.
I like that.
Who wants to be a millionaire?
I'm getting that vibe.
Well, if you were listening,
you would hear that it's directly pulled from
who wants to be a millionaire.
Well, it fits.
As always,
the first question is multiple choice,
and the topic is conservation.
Alright, are we ready? Alright, the first question is multiple choice, and the topic is conservation. All right.
Are we ready?
All right.
Let's go.
The Henry Durley Zoo, which was voted America's best zoo by USA Today, is in what city?
Is it Omaha, Tampa, Colorado Springs, or Oakland?
California?
The Henry
Dorley Zoo.
What were the options again?
Yeah.
Omaha,
Tampa,
TV behind you,
Colorado Springs,
or Oakland?
That helps.
Oh,
okay.
Best zoo by USA Today.
And we're looking for
the city it resides in.
Who knows?
Absolutely no idea.
Oh boy, we don't have any zoo fans in the room.
Randall's like a big zoo guy
and we just talked about this and I don't remember.
That would be a huge trouble.
Randall's confidence is already waning.
Randall's a zoo guy, huh?
Big zoo guy.
I would agree, Sam.
Alright, how are we feeling?
Everybody got an answer?
At least a guess? Alright, Sam. All right. How are we feeling? Everybody got an answer? At least a guess?
I'm not scary.
All right.
All right.
I said to go with my gut.
Okay.
That's all you can do when you don't know, right?
I mean, I don't even have a gut on this one.
Well, good thing there's choices.
I think the first thing that I thought down.
Go ahead and reveal your answers.
We got Jennifer saying Tampa.
Sarah says Oakland.
Kelsey, Omaha. Alex, Omaha.
Adrian says Tampa.
Sydney says Tampa.
Carrie says Colorado Springs. Katie says
Tampa. And Sam says Omaha.
We have a few correct answers.
It's Omaha!
Yeah!
That feels so right.
Did anyone know it, though?
No.
So my gut failed me.
Bad start.
Bad start.
All right, start second guessing.
Just go with the first answer.
I thought about that, too.
That's always my theory.
Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo also won the award for best zoo exhibit for their two acre desert dome.
The zoo is home to 17,000
animals from a thousand different species.
Some of their current conservation work includes
genetic screenings of the world's rarest
crocodile and nutritional studies
for native pollinators.
My sister actually just went to
the, I'm sorry, my sister's
daughter, she just went there and
loved the stingrayray Touch Tank.
Oh, fun. I feel like
Nebraska is like
the secret
of America. Like, there's so many great things
about Nebraska. Are you still over there? Can't confirm.
Sorry, everybody.
Jury's out on Nebraska.
I actually know the people.
The people from Nebraska
and as someone from Michigan,
I feel like
people from Nebraska are just top notch.
The people are great.
Nothing against the people.
Keep this in mind as I meet people from Nebraska
going forward.
Alright, on to question two. The topic
is hunting.
My favorite.
Oh, the room is excited. The topic is hunting. My favorite.
The room is excited.
Let's go.
All right. What's the plant-inspired nickname for a whitetail buck that doesn't shed its velvet?
Okay, question.
What's the plant-inspired nickname for a whitetail buck that does not shed its velvet?
It's not multiple choice.
No.
I know this.
Oh, Kelsey's confident.
She's already got her answer down.
Oh, man.
Looking at a lot of empty boards, though.
I feel like I do know this, except it's not registering.
We're looking for the plant-inspired nickname.
I feel like that wording is tripping me. Registering. We're looking for the plant-inspired nickname.
I feel like this wording is tripping me.
Can't even think of a plant right now.
It's this room.
That's what it is.
It just sucks. I have to ask Phil what the energy is here as opposed to regularly.
Oh, this is so much more fun.
Really?
The other games are, I mean, thanks to Brody and Randall and Steve,
it's just really just a bummer.
I have a question.
Does the plant not shed or shed?
I don't really know any plants that shed.
We have a botanist.
Do you know this one?
I don't know this one.
Is the plant a certain color?
Is it green? Heavily green. Oh, shoot. Even harder. I don't know this one. Is the plant a certain color?
It's green.
Heavily green.
Oh, shoot.
Even harder.
Oh.
We have to get the nickname right or just, like, the plant portion of the nickname?
The nickname.
We're looking for the nickname.
I've got a plant for you.
Elsie's like, you're a loser.
She knows what it is.
It's a plant-based nickname.
So the nickname has a plant in the name.
How many questions are we allowed to ask?
I guess as many as the room will allow. Is the plant edible?
What is the name?
I'm going to get in trouble, guys.
Give me the first letter.
Is it used to get rid of
ghosts in your house?
Okay, do we all have answers?
No.
No.
A lot of thinking still happening.
Mine's not right.
That's okay.
Just get a guess down.
I don't get it.
All right.
Are we waiting on anybody?
Yeah.
Okay, that's okay.
Do we get partial points on this one?
You know what?
I would take them, but again, in the heart.
In the heart.
We got to change the rules. You know what? I told Spencer if I could change any rules, I think in the heart. In the heart. We gotta change the rules.
You know what?
I told Spencer if I could change any rules, I think that half points are valid.
Yeah.
That you should totally.
If you don't want half points given, you shouldn't ask multiple part questions.
Yes.
Questions with multiple parts.
Yeah.
Change the rules, Shelby.
I know.
I know.
I will advocate for that.
All right.
We all good?
Nope.
But yeah.
Go ahead and reveal your answers.
Oh! That makes so much more sense.
We got Jennifer saying a fern buck.
We got Sarah saying corn tail.
Oh, Jennifer has corn tail.
Kelsey says a cactus
buck. Alex says a fern
buck. Adrienne, sage butt.
Sydney,
a mossy buck. Carrie, ferny.
That's cute actually
I love that
Katie Sage
Sam Sage
Velvet
We have one correct answer
And it is Kelsey
Whatever
Kessisbox
I actually didn't know that
It wasn't like a thing I knew and forgot
That answer makes me so sad
I only know this because I killed one
I think
Oh yeah
Did you get it mounted?
I'm always curious about that.
I have the Euro mount.
That's so cool.
It's crazy.
It's sweet.
Yeah, to have the velvet on there still.
Cactus bucks can be caused by a hormone imbalance, injury, or disease.
While most bucks shed their velvet in late summer, a cactus buck will keep theirs until they shed their antlers in winter.
In many cases, a cactus buck's antlers will also grow to unusual sizes and shapes. We all know about hormonal imbalances.
Just starting off on the wags episode. Here we go. All right, question three is cooking,
and this is our listener question of the week, which was won by Sam Taylor. For sending in this
great question, Sam is going to get a board game signed by the crew, which was won by Sam Taylor. For sending in this great question,
Sam is going to get a board game signed by the crew. And if you want a chance to win the listener question of the week, then send your question to trivia at themeateater.com. All right.
Dictionary.com added this two-word term in 2023, which is defined as, quote, a meal consisting of
snacks, side dishes, and small portions of randomly assembled foods.
Katie is confident.
I am.
Oh, Sydney's writing.
Everyone else kind of looks stumped here.
I'm thinking of girl dinner.
Yeah, I know.
That's what I think.
Oh, interesting.
Okay.
That is not the answer.
Quote, a meal consisting of snacks, side dishes, and sauce.
I thought for sure that was a food.
A very randomly assembled food.
I have no comment.
We're not talking.
It's dictionary.com.
Dictionary.com.
Dictionary.com.
Anything.
It could be anything.
Two words term.
Kelsey.
Yeah.
I was really excited to get that.
Kelsey's right answer.
Yeah, did I just realize?
She's trying to blow her own weed right now.
So that's negative points, right?
Yeah, because I was going to be the one I got right.
I was literally like,
I'm just trying to sabotage you.
Oh, no.
Are we ready to reveal our answers?
Yes.
Sorry, everybody.
Or you're welcome.
Girl dinner across the board.
It's girl dinner.
It's girl dinner.
I think we all got that one.
That one's all for everybody.
I'm going to proceed to shut my mouth for the rest of it.
I thought it was like something super serious.
Well, yeah, that's what it is.
Girl dinner is a dictionary word.
Spencer loves girl dinner.
So girl dinner was among 327 entries added to dictionary.com last year,
as well as bussin', the ick, slow fashion, shacket, mid, and barbiecore.
Bon Appetit magazine says the ideal girl dinner should resemble a small charcuterie board
with crackers, pickles, deli meats, guacamole, hummus, fruit, and a glass of wine. Bon Appetit magazine. Just talking about it. Seems pretty legit.
Love a girl dinner. Yeah, of course. It's my favorite thing during hunting season when
Corey's gone to just eat girl dinner every day. Yeah. And just watch trash TV. Yep.
Love Island and girl dinners. Way of life. Alright, question four is
Wildlife. This 2005
documentary follows the annual
migration of emperor penguins in
Antarctica.
Sounds like a pretty confident
room. I have to know the name of it.
You have to know the name of the documentary.
Oh my god.
I've seen it.
It's on the tip of everyone's tongue.
Not a lot of folks writing, but a lot of people.
Katie, are there any thoughts you want to say out loud?
Yeah.
Suck it, Kelsey.
Oh man.
I took a good guess.
This 2005 documentary follows the annual migration of emperor penguins in Antarctica.
We're looking for the name of the documentary.
Why?
Why?
Why?
Ask Spencer, honestly.
It's like, okay, seen it.
Can't remember it.
Move on.
Are we ready to reveal?
No.
Oh, sorry.
I'm sorry.
Waiting on you.
No pressure.
Why the heck can I not remember this?
That's what I put to begin with.
I'm finally going to get a point on the board.
I don't know.
Sounds like a lot of the room has seen this documentary at least.
I have not seen it.
But I 100% know what it is.
Okay, okay.
Are we ready?
I'm just going to call it that.
But what's his face?
What's his face?
That's a good answer too.
Yeah, some heart points
for what's his face.
Yeah.
I can't think of his name either.
Is it a D and an A?
No, it's not.
I don't think he did.
I don't think it is.
I don't remember.
I've got it for you here.
Is it W-N-H?
So go ahead and reveal your answers.
Jennifer says March of the Penguins.
Oh my God.
Sarah says The Great March.
Kelsey says Happy Feet.
Alex says The Grand March.
Oh, so close.
Adrienne, March of the Penguins.
Cindy, March of the Penguins.
Carrie, March of the Penguins.
Katie, March of the Penguins. Sam, Emperor. Morgan Penguins. Carrie. March of the Penguins. Katie. March of the Penguins.
Sam Emperor.
Morgan Freeman.
Hey, you got that.
I knew that.
I see it.
Yeah, March of the Penguins was narrated by Morgan Freeman.
It's in my brain.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I can't even remember the titles of the shows that we make here.
Come on.
Well, it was narrated by Morgan Freeman and it won.
High point.
There you go. Well, it was narrated by Morgan Freeman and it won 15 awards, including the Oscar for Best Documentary.
And many praised the film for promoting strong family values, even though Emperor Penguins change mates every year.
Interesting.
Didn't get that out of it.
Interesting.
All right.
Question five.
The topic is camping. Another topic I know a lot about. Not five. The topic is camping.
Another topic I know a lot about. Not excited.
Not excited, guys.
Seems like they're sighing for every single topic, though, right?
Am I hearing that, too?
Yeah, everyone's got a grumble.
All right.
This travel trailer company, which was founded in 1931, is best known for their campers that are nicknamed the Silver Bullets.
Okay. Alex is confident down there.
Big nods.
Sam, you seem confident.
Okay.
Not so sure?
It's probably wrong.
Some false confidence, maybe?
I know the answer, and I cannot think of what it is.
That's how I felt on the last question.
Oh, my God.
My brain is just not in it.
We feel really bad for you.
Yeah.
One point.
You can write down who the narrator is.
The narrator of the camper, yes.
This travel trailer company, which was founded in 1931,
is best known for their campers that are nicknamed the Silver Bullets.
Can I draw a picture of one instead?
You are welcome to draw a picture
for no points, though.
Two more seconds.
You're good.
It's coming to you.
My family had one of these
and they would call it
the Twinkie.
The Twinkie.
Oh, maybe a hint.
Maybe.
It's a silver bullet.
Same thing.
It's my dream to have one.
So fun.
I know exactly what it is
and the word is just not
existing.
You're going to be so mad
when you hear it.
It's honestly like
if you asked me my name
right now and I was like
I don't know.
It's one of those
I know what the answer is
but I don't know.
Can I tell her
what it rhymes with?
No!
We're giving away
answers right here
at Wex Trivia.
I was just saying.
We're yapping.
Are we ready to reveal?
Okay, go ahead and reveal.
Jennifer Silverstream.
Oh, so close.
Sarah says Airstream.
Kelsey, Airstream.
She totally started with Airstream.
Adrian has a very good drawing of an Airstream.
No words written down.
Sydney, Carrie, Katie, and Sam all got it.
It is Airstream.
It's starting to feel like trivia doesn't cater to all of the ways our minds work.
Exactly.
Thank you.
It should be accepted.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Trivia.
Different learning styles.
Can we get like a media or Pictionary? Yeah. You know what? That sounds really fun. Charades. Yeah. Yeah. Trivia. Different learning styles. Could we get like a media or pictionary?
Yeah.
You know what?
That sounds really fun.
Charades?
Yeah.
I feel like that's the direction
we really need to be going.
Okay.
2024,
this needs to evolve.
The Airstream design
draws inspiration
from airplanes,
which gives them
that iconic
silver bullet look.
The company flirted
with the idea
of creating pastel Airstreams
in the 50s,
but abandoned the project
after making one gold camper
for the founder's wife.
Although they're best known
for their vintage campers,
Airstreams still produces
new ones today.
A 2024 model
will run you anywhere
from 50 grand
to $200,000.
Did they know that gold
is not pastel?
Yeah, that's odd.
They seem to throw
in the towel
a little too soon.
Yeah.
Also, I would give my right arm for like a baby pink Airstream.
Yeah.
Didn't they make Barbie ones at one point?
Oh, I don't know.
Or is that just a made up?
They made a bunch of different campers for Barbie.
I had a Barbie RV.
Yeah.
The boys would love that.
Aren't they?
Is it?
They should.
Not to be a downer about it, but aren't they like, you can't have them in places where there's hail.
Oh, probably.
Because they'll get destroyed.
I don't know.
They get dented.
Not the $200,000 2024 model.
They do.
Probably.
I don't know.
Well, I don't know.
Airstream should tell.
All right.
Well, that.
Send us one and we can find out.
They should send us one.
Yeah, yeah.
Airstream, do you get dented?
That brings us halfway through our game of trivia. one and we can find out. Airstream, do you get dented? That
brings us halfway through our game
of trivia, so give us a scoreboard update, Phil.
Oh, and the
visual scoreboard.
Here we are. Well, even without
Kelsey's Girl Dinner giveaway,
everyone would be on the board.
So give yourselves a pat on the back.
Jennifer and Sarah
and Adrian are tied up in last place with two points.
Coming up next, we've got Alex, Sydney, Carrie, Katie, and Sam all tied up with three.
And in first place, it's Kelsey with four points.
Doing very unsportsmanlike right now.
Let's go.
I already made my goal, so we're good.
This is a tight game.
Everyone's in it.
Nice job.
Everyone's in this. Hey, folks. Exciting news for those who. Everyone's in it. Everyone's in this.
Hey, folks.
Exciting news for those who live or hunt in Canada.
And boy, my goodness do we hear from the Canadians

Welcome to the OnX club, y'all.
Alright, let's move along to question
six. The topic is cooking.
Yay!
I'm not sure you'll feel that way after I read this.
Oh, boy.
What reality star famously asked in a 2003 episode of The Newlyweds if tuna was fish or chicken?
Fun fact.
We share a birthday.
Yay.
Hints if you know when Sam's birthday is.
Happy birthday to Sam and that girl.
I would argue that this is not a cooking question.
This is a group question.
I am not getting this one.
I have never watched reality TV.
This is a complaint for Spencer.
I have never watched reality TV either.
You know what?
I think he just really wanted to ask about the movie.
I feel like there's a...
Yeah.
I think Kelsey knows this one.
I don't.
Well, we were just saying this is an ageist question.
No, it's not because they still make commercials to this day.
Yeah.
Get this person in it.
This has been promoted a ton.
I don't care if that was cheating.
That is a good hint.
And you should take it.
I was seven.
I was ten.
Brag.
Okay.
I graduated from college. I was 12, Brag. Okay. I graduated from college.
I was 12, so same boat.
We're looking for the reality star that famously asked in 2003 episode of The Newlyweds if tuna was fish or chicken.
Does everybody have an answer?
Yes.
All right, reveal your answers.
Jen says Jamie Tucker.
Sarah, Jessica Simpson.
Kelsey says Paris Hilton.
Alex says Paris Hilton. Adrienne, Jessica Simpson. Sydney Sarah Jessica Simpson, Kelsey says Paris Hilton, Alex says Paris Hilton,
Adrienne Jessica Simpson, Sydney Jessica Simpson, Carrie Hilton Paris with an arrow.
I like that.
Jamie Jessica Simpson, Sam Jessica Simpson.
That is correct.
It is Jessica Simpson.
That's my name.
That happens on the pilot episode of Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey's MTV reality show,
and Phil has a clip for us.
Oh my gosh!
Thank you!
Is this chicken what I have, or is this fish?
You're wearing headphones, once again.
I know it's tuna, but it says chicken.
What an arrow.
I love the way he looks at her, like, are you serious? Is that Nick Lachey? but it says chicken. What an error. I'm about to see.
I love the way he looks at her, like, are you serious?
Is that the fish egg?
Yeah.
I don't know what's happening here,
but this looks like a typical conversation between two.
Are you unaware that they were married?
Don't make fun of me right now.
I knew that they were married.
I am not familiar with this show.
This may have been a major spoiler.
This clip is iconic.
This is like.
Why is it called Chicken by the Sea or in the Sea?
Chicken of the Sea. I didn't know it was on MTV.
I just knew this clip.
This clip was so popular.
I didn't have cable and I knew it.
Yeah.
And I did watch MTV.
I was, I'm 43.
So I'm very, this was very much in my wheelhouse, too.
Good girls question, though.
Yeah.
Spencer just has a soft spot for, like, early 2000s reality TV.
He's the only reason I've ever seen that, because I was also seven.
But Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey, iconic.
I love it.
21 years later, Simpson actually found a way to capitalize on the blunder by starring in a commercial for none other than Chicken of the Sea.
And Phil has another clip for us.
I would if Spencer didn't send me an instruction at the last second and just ruin my whole...
That's what I was referring to earlier.
Spencer is the worst.
Just absolutely terrible.
Just kidding, I love him so much.
Give me one second.
Just talk amongst yourselves for about ten seconds.
That hasn't been a problem so far, you know.
So Chicken of the Sea is what confused her, for those of you that didn't hear the clip.
She was like, so is this chicken?
I know it's tuna, but is it chicken?
Honestly, fair mishap.
Canned chicken and canned tuna very similar yeah fair fair
texture this is her now this is 21 years later so yeah mom why are you eating that packet
it's called chicken of the sea but it's not really chicken it's tuna so don't get confused by it
who would ever get confused by that? No one.
Not your mom.
The chicken of the sea is the one for me.
It has lean protein, it keeps me fueled
as a busy working mom, and it even
comes in portable packets now.
And it's mermaid approved.
Yes, people. I know it's too nice. Yes, people.
I know it's tuned.
It was a Super Bowl commercial, wasn't it?
I'll take your word for it.
I think it was.
Am I wrong?
I'm selling it.
Sure.
I did not watch the Super Bowl this year
and I love the commercials.
Did you like that one?
Was that one of the best?
Top five?
I don't know.
I don't remember any of them.
But I remember I've seen this commercial
and I feel like it was a Super Bowl commercial.
I believe you.
We stream everything.
I don't see commercials anymore.
Yeah.
Whenever our kids are watching regular TV, they do not understand.
We had to explain Saturday morning cartoons the other day.
Not like you just, it was on from this time to this time.
And whatever was on was what you had to watch, and you couldn't go back.
Yeah.
And they were just like, what?
Yeah.
You couldn't skip it.
It's appointment television. Yeah. You didn't just like, what? Like, yeah, you couldn't skip it. It's appointment television.
Yeah, you didn't know when you would see it again.
They do not understand how that works.
So funny.
All right, well,
question seven is Woodsman's Ship,
so switching up the vibe a little bit.
All right.
Cambridge Dictionary defines
this ten-letter word
as, quote, the activity of using GPS to search for small hidden prizes.
We're looking for the 10-letter word that is described as the activity of using GPS to search for small hidden prizes.
Kelsey is confident.
Heck yeah.
We need to stick to one dictionary, not...
I thought you said woodmanship.
I was like, what does this have to do with wood?
I thought that was what was said too.
It's woodsmanship, but I think that just means a person in the woods.
Shouldn't it be wordsmanship?
That's probably not a word.
There's no Cambridge dictionary definition of woodsmanship in the script.
It's woodsmanship dinner. Yeah. It's woodsmanship dinner.
Yeah.
Wonder what that would look like.
I feel like I eat that.
I was kidding.
I feel like, actually, it's probably most night.
That checks out.
Yeah, that's like squirrel.
Are we just waiting on you, Sam?
Everyone else, go ahead and answer me.
Yeah, because I don't know that I know this one either,
even though I use GIS quite a bit.
There's like this thing that I did to look for prizes once.
There's a thing.
Might have had ten letters.
Draw a picture.
Might have.
That has eight words.
Oh.
Just add an S.
I mean letters.
Add a couple of them. Change the tense. E- words. Oh. Just add an S. I mean letters. Add a couple of them.
Change the tense.
E-S.
Yeah.
But also, like, leave it on there because I'm curious.
Okay.
Wait.
Add in two more letters.
Okay.
I love this.
Which one?
Oh, are you ready, Jen?
Well, okay.
No rush.
Does this have anything to do with some little cards that kids collect?
Wasn't there a thing where kids were using these cards to, right?
Pokemon?
I was going to say it's not Pokemon.
It's not, yeah.
I mean, I wouldn't give away the answer.
Do adults do this?
Do they tell you what it is?
Do they tell us?
I can just tell you.
She can show you.
I'll just say it out just tell you. She can show you. I'll just show you your voice. I'll just say it out loud.
Say it out loud.
It is described as the activity of using GPS to search for small hidden prizes.
What the heck is that thing called?
Who has done this thing?
I think I have.
But I don't know.
But yeah.
It's fun.
You probably have.
It is fun.
But I don't remember the name.
Yeah.
Well, that's unfortunate for you. It's fun. You probably have. It is fun. But I don't remember the name. Yeah. Well, that's unfortunate for you.
That's where the penguins.
Airstream.
And the narrator.
Okay, I made up a word.
Okay, I love it.
Let's reveal our answers.
Jennifer says,
Orienteers.
That sounds fun.
Caching.
Geocaching.
Geocaching says Sarah, Kelsey, Alex, Adrian, Sydney, Carrie, Katie, and Sam says GeoTracker.
Close.
That's hard.
You're awesome.
That's a name from my late 80s, early 90s.
Yeah, this is cute.
Letters.
Yeah.
Geocaching is correct.
Geocaching was created in 2000 by an organ man who originally called it the Great American
GPS Stash Hunt.
Geocaching is a lot better.
Yeah, a lot catchier.
So just outside of Portland,
he hid a black bucket that contained prizes
like a slingshot, CDs, and books.
The game was renamed Geocaching a few months later
and blew up in popularity
as handheld GPS became more accessible.
All right.
Question eight, gear.
This clothing brand,
which was famous for their shirtless male greeters,
used to sell outdoor gear and guns.
Okay.
Oh, there's some people writing.
A lot of stumped faces.
There are two options,
and one of them does not fit.
No. Again, I argue not. Wait. A lot of stumped faces. There are two options, and one of them does not fit. This might also be just a little bit.
No.
Again, I argue not.
Wait.
I think when, like, we were young, it was a thing.
I think the guns part or the shirtless part.
This is such a guess.
This clothing brand, which was famous for their shirtless male greeters, used to sell outdoor gear and guns.
If I'm correct, this clothing brand is incredibly popular once again.
You know, I think.
Throwing out hints?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh my god, what?
I don't know.
Do you know?
I mean, I feel like there's, I've now written down two different things.
Yeah. And I don't know. I think I feel good. I think I feel good. I feel good. I feel good. I feel good. I feel good. I feel good. I feel good. I feel good. I feel good. I feel good. I feel mean, I feel like there's, I've now written down two different things. Yeah.
And I don't know.
I can see her order. I think I feel good.
That's a good sign.
I wrote it down first.
You can do what the guys do.
They, like, kind of, as long as they don't change their answer after, they, like, show each other.
Okay.
I'm just going to guess.
I can't even think of it.
I feel much better about the second half of this game.
Okay.
I mean, she did it by saying that but... It's not strong at the start.
We're going to get a...
What are you guys talking about over there?
I don't think so.
I haven't seen him erase.
I haven't seen him erase.
Do you want me to show you mine?
I'll show you mine.
I'll show you mine.
Are you serious?
Yeah, you can't change your answer, but I'll show you mine.
Okay.
Okay, does everyone have something written down?
Let's reveal to the group.
Let's reveal to the group.
I just think underwear when I think about this.
Jennifer says Calvin Klein.
Sarah says Hollister.
Kelsey says Filson.
Alex and Adrian say Abercrombie and Fitch.
Sydney says Abercrombie and Fitch.
Carrie says Mossy Oak.
Katie and Sam both say Abercrombie and Fitch.
The room did pretty well.
It was Abercrombie and Fitch.
I'm so angry right now.
I wanted to win this.
I just kind of like oiled up shirtless men.
When Abercrombie and Fitch was founded in New York City in 1892,
it called itself the greatest sporting goods store in the world.
Out of their 12-story building on Madison Avenue, they sold binos, tents, fishing rods, knives, boats, guns, and more.
But over the next 100 years, they transitioned to a...
He's got a typo in here.
This is not my fault.
They transitioned to a brand for preppy teens and started employing shirtless male greeters and clerks.
That practice came to an end in 2015 when an Abercrombie announced that they wanted a rebrand.
They said they wanted to improve the sensory experience of the shopping in their stores,
which meant less scent, more lighting, quieter music, and no more half-naked hunks.
They weren't doing that until 2017.
Did you ever walk into an Abercrombie and just get overwhelmed by the smell? Isn't that wild? I didn't know that they were half-naked hunks. And that is less sensory because... Did you ever walk into an Abercrombie
and just get overwhelmed
by the smell?
Isn't that wild?
I didn't know that
they were half-naked.
I just, I thought
they were...
Shirtless.
I mean,
pants,
what is that,
40% naked?
And you would take
pictures with them
in high school?
Yes.
Which is so bizarre.
Why were we doing that?
It burned in your brain.
Oh my gosh.
And they were like on the bags and like all over the walls.
Yeah.
It's a weird environment.
Okay, it's time for another scoreboard update.
Let's take it away, Phil.
I feel better now.
I am still at two.
I've got another one.
Okay, Sydney, now the shit time is through.
Jennifer, I'm so sorry.
Before the visual scoreboard, I used to just not mention the people who it's been on.
I'm okay with it.
I actually don't consume a lot of media.
I don't know if I've ever been into an Abercrombie and Finch.
Jennifer has two points.
Up next are Sarah and Katie,
who are tied up with four.
Kelsey.
No, no, no.
It's Katie.
Katie's got six, dude.
Sorry, Sarah, Carrie.
Sarah and Carrie next to Katie. Not Katie, Sarah, Carrie. Sarah and Carrie next to Katie.
Not Katie.
It's Carrie.
Sarah and Carrie have four.
Alex, Adrian, Sam, and Kelsey all have five points apiece.
And tied up in first place are Sydney and Katie with six.
How many more questions do we have?
There's two more.
All right.
There's a chance.
We're on question nine.
A lot of you guys are still in it.
It is a tight game here.
I'm getting sweaty.
I mean, you have the opportunity to win.
Oh, okay.
I think they're winning.
We're done.
There's two more questions.
You've got a chance, Sam.
You're in this.
All right.
Question nine is fishing.
Oh, God.
Let's do it.
Sam, you have not.
Ugh.
One question.
I liked the last question.
All right.
The blank ribbon fishery classification is the highest honor a stream can get, implying it has exceptional water quality, access, and fishing.
I'm guessing, but I feel good about it.
Okay.
Okay. Okay, okay. The blank ribbon fishery classification is the highest honor a stream can get,
implying it has exceptional water quality, access, and fishing.
If my answer is wrong, then the real answer is dumb.
I would agree.
I feel the same.
I think we all said the same thing.
Are we all ready?
Everyone's ready?
All right, let's reveal.
That was a quick one.
Oh, my gosh. I think the whole room said blue. Everyone said all ready? Everyone's ready? All right, let's reveal. That was a quick one. Oh my gosh,
I think the whole room
said blue.
Everyone said blue.
And everyone's right.
It is the blue ribbon
fishery classification.
That doesn't help us
get closer to winning.
Right, yeah.
It does not.
It just brings the mid.
I don't know if I can
say gold.
Isn't there like
a gold medal fishery though?
There are.
That's what I was thinking.
Oh, is it gold?
I thought it might be
a trick question.
Ribbons are not
typically gold.
It's going to be green
or something weird,
but it's like,
doesn't make sense.
Third place or fourth,
I think.
Ribbons are very strange.
There's a lot of them here.
Although many states
use the phrase
blue ribbon fishery
on an informal basis,
other departments
treat it as a real classification.
Montana, for example,
has 410 miles of water
that they rate
as blue ribbon fisheries. Missouri has miles of water that they rate as blue ribbon fisheries.
Missouri has nine waterways that they label
as blue ribbon, and even have
the blue ribbon trout slam.
Wyoming has four classifications,
with the blue ribbon being the best, followed by
red ribbon, yellow ribbon, and green
ribbon. So, there's a lot.
There you go. Another scoreboard
update from Phil before our last
question. Well, everyone got that one right
correct
oh yeah
so I think it's
it's Sydney and Katie
still tied up
yeah
seven points
okay
it's hot in here
yeah
it is
Phil has to turn the air off
for recording in here
and
no I have no control
over the air in here
I have no idea
who controls it
or where it's controlled from
I lied
okay we still blame it on Phil because he's here.
It's just...
Phil's fault.
Phil's fault.
Phil!
I support this.
Okay,
before we do
the final question,
I'm going to review
all the correct answers
for the listeners at home.
So number one
was Omaha.
Two was Cactus Buck.
Three was Girl Dinner.
Four was March of the Penguins.
Five, Airstream.
Six, Jessica Simpson.
Seven, geocaching.
Eight, Amber Crombie and Fitch.
Nine, Blue.
And here is question 10.
The topic is hunting.
According to State Farm, what month are you most likely to hit a deer with your vehicle?
According to state farm, what month are you most likely to hit a deer with your vehicle?
I know what it is according to me.
Has anyone ever hit a deer with their vehicle?
Oh, so many.
I have been hit by a deer.
Countless.
Oh, what month?
Oh, maybe you don't want to share.
Maybe you don't want to share yet.
Let's collect the data from the room.
I hit a deer with Giannis' vehicle.
Oh.
Nice.
So that big, yeah,
the big bumper that's on it now,
that's because of me.
Thanks.
Randall hit a deer on his way home
from hunting with a deer in his car.
Just throw it on top.
Corey hit a deer on his way to hunt.
And yeah, same thing.
Still went hunting?
Yeah, still went hunting and brought a dove.
And when was that?
Specifically, like the month?
I could tell you the month, but I'm reserving that.
That is a hint, actually.
That is a hint.
Yeah, yeah.
What state was he in?
Oh, yeah.
What state was he in?
Yeah.
Yeah, what state are we supposed to be in?
Does everyone have an answer?
No.
Yeah?
Sure.
Okay.
Let's reveal.
Jennifer says July.
Sarah, November.
Kelsey, November.
Alex, November.
Adrienne, June.
Sydney, November.
Carrie, September.
Katie, December.
Sam, November.
We have the right answers.
No.
It's November.
See, I thought it would be a summer month because there are more people on the road.
You know, there's a lot of good justification here.
But State Farm collected the data from thousands of deer vehicle collisions in 2022 and found that November is when you are most likely to have an accident, followed by October and December.
Sorry, Katie.
Those boys be running around.
Yeah, yeah.
They also found that the states you are most likely to hit a deer in are West Virginia, Montana, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
Spencer also hit deer while
deer hunting but both of those hunts
were unsuccessful so he got
a salvage tag? Yes.
So he didn't come home empty handed.
He just also came home with a big
insurance bill from
the truck. Which is just as much
fun.
Equally satisfying, right?
Useful information if you're hunting with your car.
Yeah, exactly.
Go out in West Virginia or Montana in November.
Do you guys feel like you know what to do if a deer jumps out in front of you?
A hundred percent no.
I don't either.
You just have to hit it.
Don't swerve.
I mean, don't swerve.
The danger, you're in much more danger if you swerve.
Right.
I mean, but I say that.
I don't necessarily follow that.
Right.
Says Sarah, who's hit two deer?
Oh, no.
Countless.
Countless.
Countless.
So many I couldn't tell you now.
But I mean, I'm from Southern Illinois and Tennessee.
I can, yeah, I think I've hit several deer a year.
Oh.
Oh, my word.
That's a bummer. That's a bummer. Well, you know what? Have you, like, changed your I've hit several deer a year. Oh, my word. That's a bummer.
That's really bad luck.
Well, you know what?
Have you, like, changed your technique at all?
I haven't.
Now I'm going to hit one.
I haven't hit one since I moved to Montana 10 years ago.
So I haven't hit one.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Now I'm really going to be nervous.
Well, you know what's not a bummer is that Sydney is our winner.
Yay!
With eight correct answers.
Yeah, that was great.
So well done, Sydney.
That means you get to choose
where the $500 donation from Meat Eater goes.
Oh boy.
Were you prepared for that?
Um, no.
I'm going to choose Land Access Initiative.
Land Access Initiative.
That's a great one.
You sounded prepared.
Oh, really?
Nice job.
One of the two that I could think of.
Randall's confidence was not his place.
No, Randall walked into my office about 20 minutes before this podcast and told me how nervous he was.
Oh, my God.
He's going to be so happy.
It will be a good night in the Williams home.
So, ladies, how do you think we did?
Do you think they'll allow us back in here?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Next week.
I just wanted to happen until I win.
And then we don't have to do it anymore after that.
Good.
We can retire when Kelsey takes a W.
Okay.
Well, join us next week for more Meat Eater Trivia,
the only game show where conservation always wins.
Yay!
Good job, Shelby!
Good job!
Good job, Shelby!
Good job, Shelby and Shelby! Good job! Yeah! So you got second place? Yeah, Spencer from South Dakota.
He's the host.
Using those smooth, mellow tones, he lays them questions down.
And he likes taking those two and three-year-old bucks.
And he's an avid amateur.
Rock hound.
