Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins.

I'm your host, Spencer Newhart, and today we're joined by Randall, Hansi, Alex, Roman, and chili. This is a 10-round quiz show with questions from me. Meat Dieter's four verticals, which are hunting fish and conservation and cooking, and there is a prize. The meat eater will donate $500 to the Conservation Organization of the Winners Choosing. Now, today, it is Randall versus Gibronies. That means it'll be the big bad, Randall, going up against the collective brains of Hansi, Alex, Roman, and Chile. Now, Randall, we've done this in the past.

You once went up against six gibronies and lost. You went up against three gibronies and won. And today we're throwing four of our best jebronies at you. How do you feel about your chances? You know, I feel pretty good. I always feel pretty good coming in here. It's less exciting when it's a gibroni game. Oh.

Just because I feel like the deck is stacked against me. Mm. Less exciting, then. Yeah, I just, you know, I like to just play the old-fashioned way. Mono, imano, imano, imano, mono. know, but why don't we get on with it?

Gibronies, how do you guys think you're going to do? Can you beat Randall? I think we can do it. Yeah. I mean, Randall's pretty easy

to get under her skin a little bit. He just has to get one question wrong that he should have got right and then it's all game over. See, Chilly, the problem is if the questions are easy

enough for you to get right, I'll get them right too. Okay. You silence, Chili. I don't know you want to be here right now. She'll only want to come out swinging and get into my head

and I just got a news of the turntables have turned. Who is going to be your captain, Jibronies? Alex, you've got the whiteboard in front of you. Is it, is it you? I think he's a captain. I'll write the stuff down. I don't know about captain, for sure. How this game will work is when I ask a question,

Randall will come up with his answer first. He will then lock it in. He'll put his whiteboard down. It will not change. And then you, for Gibronies, will have your chance to discuss aloud what you think it could be. Got it? Cool.

All right. For the stat of the week this week, we're looking at the number five. That's how many months it's been since I last forgot to do a correct answer review at the end of the show. If you don't recall, I implemented a fine back in June where I'd join a conservation group for every time I forgot to do the correct answer review going forward. And ever since then, I've yet to miss one. This development has been good for our list. listeners, but bad for conservation. So it's working.

All right, no housekeeping today, so we can get to the trivia. Now, the Shelby Index for this episode is a five, so I'm putting us on perfect score. And with that, we're on to the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil. Look, I need to know what I stand to win. Everything. How's that? Just tend to win everything.

Game on, suckers. Randall, also in an unfamiliar chair today. We'll see how this affects his gameplay. Phil, am I still in the shot here? Just barely. I'd say you're good. I'm a visual learner. I'd like to see the monitor, but I also can't show any of these gibronies. My answers, so I'm very tricky.

Question one, the topic is conservation, and as always, this will be multiple choice. Doug Bergam, the current secretary of the interior, is the former governor of this state is it new mexico indiana georgia or north dakota randall already has his answer didn't even need the choices so gibronies you can now yeah that's right you you talk aloud what you think it could be dug bergum the current secretary of the interior is the former governor of this state new mexico indiana georgia north dakota what do we think gibronies I'm like 98% positive. I just wanted to...

Oh, no, then that's great. 98% positive. What do you think it is? North Dakota. Okay. And no one is putting up a fight. Negative. Does anybody have any...

That was my guess. That was also my... I don't know. Three of the four jabonis are thinking North Dakota. Doug Bergam, the current secretary of the interior is the former governor of this state. Is it New Mexico, Indiana, Georgia. or North Dakota? Final answer, guys?

Final answer. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have the Gibronies and Randall saying North Dakota. They got it. The correct answer is North Dakota. Bergman's North Dakota's governor from 2016 to 2024. He launched a presidential campaign in 2023, but withdrew a few months later to become Donald Trump's advisor on energy policy.

As the 55th Secretary of the Interior, he oversees the management of 480 million acres of public land and 70,000 federal employees. Question two, the topic is cooking. This next great question is via Leland Hart. This seven-letter word is defined as, quote, a Japanese

delicacy consisting of fresh raw fish or meat sliced into thin pieces and often eaten with soy sauce. Randall already locked in his answer again. So Gibronies, you can now discuss what you think.

Sashimi, yeah, sashimi, yeah. This seven-letter word is defined as. I-M-I, I believe. A Japanese delicacy consisting of fresh raw fish or meat sliced into thin pieces and often eaten with soy sauce. Roman, did you have something to add? I was just going to say, thank you, Spencer, for picking this guy's question because I see him on radio live so often.

Oh, yeah, Leland, a great contributor. He's the man, friend of the program, trivia and radio. Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Randall says sashimi. Jabronis say sashimi. The correct answer is sashimi. Sashimi is most commonly seafood,

but is sometimes a type of red meat, according to a Japanese food guide. It's the diner's responsibility to fill their personal dish with soy sauce and its good manners to only pour as much as you need. Sashimi is also occasionally served with wasabi or ground ginger. Any strong takes on sashimi in here? Love sashimi as what?

But I don't think it should be dipped necessarily. I think I've come to the understanding that like a slight wipe with soy sauce is. How do you accomplish that? It's a nice way to go. So you don't overdo the fish. You want to taste the fish. How do you do a wipe of soy sauce? You could like just take your finger and dunk it in and that's what I see the omacassi,

the like sushi counter guys too, the chefs. So I figure out just copy them. I trust you, Hansi. I don't know. That seems like just copy until I win, right? Has anyone done with Benison? Benison is sashimi? No. No.

We do tartare. We're doing raw. Okay. Question three. The topic is wild life. Real estate agent Kathy pees on the hand of registered nurse John after he gets stung by a sea urchin in a 2002 episode of this show. Hansi This is question three

The topic is wildlife Real estate agent Kathy pees on the hand of registered nurse John After he gets stung by a sea urchin In a 2002 episode Of this show Randall is your answer locked in

Is my board on the table Okay, gibronies What do you think it could be? We have a confident Randall over here Not really I just have an answer The podcast audience doesn't know unless you slam it down Brody style.

Oh, they hate that. They hate that. This is a, just a guess, but it wasn't Baywatch out then. I'm just connecting the dots. Sea urchin, pissing on somebody, Baywatch. I don't think it's. They watch still. Lifeguards.

The sea urchin isn't pissing. Can we use that? I should say peeing. I doubt I guess we'll find out, yeah. Real estate agent Kathy pees on the hand of registered nurse John after he gets stung by a sea urchin in a 2002 episode of this show. Yes, he used peas in the question. Probably stick to that.

Is it a doctor show? No impact, no idea. I can't believe Randall Moses. I feel like it's a reality TV. I'm going to be entertained to watch Randall's face, as you guys discuss. Is this maybe he has a tell over here? I think it might be Survivor. Survivor, naked and afraid.

I'm going to Survivor sounds good What is that? It's a survivor theme song Survivor's older right Yeah that's kind of what I We're gonna need to hear a second version Of that later Phil

No I think it'll be become problematic I think they always like yeah They always like refer to like the contestants as like Real Estate Agent or whatever Yeah sure Yeah yeah go Survivor Again question three Real Estate Agent Kathy pees on the hand of registered nurse John

Is that making nervous there a rainbow? He gets stung by a sea urchin in a 2002 episode of this show. Is everybody ready? Doesn't make me nervous. It disappoints me. Does it? Go ahead and reveal your answers.

The Gibronies say Survivor. Randall says Survivor. Well done, guys. The correct answer is Survivor. Sweet. You guys got it. I was hoping you're going to go down the medical route and end up at House MD.

Far about it. Yeah, ERR. The sea urchin sting happens in season four, while John is spearfishing in French Polynesia, he complains of intense pain and begs his fellow survivors to pee on him. Pascal tries first, but is unable to muster any urine, then Kathy splashes into action and squats over John's arm. John feels immediate relief and declares the wound healed.

However, Scientific American Magazine says that urine's healing powers on animal stings is just a myth. Here is that clip from Survivor. Oh, good. I need somebody who has to pee. I need some of you who can pee on my hand. Look at that guy running toilet. He's like, here I come. Just hit the day.

Pascal went out to try to pee. And he did that performance anxiety thing, I think. So it just was good timing that I had to get back on. This is gross, but... I don't care, I don't care. Just be gone. Okay, okay. I don't know where my head is.

Okay. Okay. I mean, that could have been like peroxide as far as I'm concerned. I didn't even think. of it being weird that she was squatting down and i had my hand between her legs let's see you had to go the bathroom oh i mean it was like do what it takes to make you feel good i don't care what you have to do thank you finally when i think i was pulling up my pants i suddenly got very embarrassed but it made me feel good at least i perform in the call of duty saved his life huh you military boys

do you ever learn anything about peeing on wounds they say do it don't do it don't address it For listeners, Alex's face, Alex's face is gold. Okay, question four. Anybody ever pull the old fake Searge and Sting trick? I did have somebody piss in my canteen early in my contract. Okay, not related to an animal sting, though. That's just standard. That's just good fun, right?

Yeah, maybe we need to consider that Redmond. just to nurse John was just a pervert. Yeah. Question four, the topic is hunting. Elpo, Began, dental life, busy bone, and dog chow are all owned by this company. Randall with another

quick answer. Elpo, Began, dental life, busy bone, and dog chow are all owned by this company. Now, Randall still has the whiteboard in his hand, so don't say anything quite yet,

Chabronies. okay he's locked in his answer gbronies what do we think it could be so well began like begon's like the begging strips right with like the old dog and the bacon

yeah BS it's pretty much the shittiest dog food on this list really shouldn't say that out but purina I'm just thinking about pierina I just I doesn't seem like I can connect any of these to perina purina in my head

milk bone I mean is that like that's a name brand or they just treats I don't know Elpo begging dental life Busybone and dog chow Purina is just food and Alpo is food And so I don't know if they would

Do they have competing? I don't think of Purina is like top tier dog food and that's what I think of When I look at those four Like I think of like Purina You can buy anywhere Maybe milkbone not you

Milkbone? It's got an average Joe sound to it Milkbone but then you got busy bone too it's like is that Hansi owns a dog Chili do you own a dog Negative Alex owns a dog

Roman do you own a dog No sir Okay two out of the for Gubon Is this busy bone one of the Bone thugs I bet he spells In harmony B-I ZY

Cleveland music club Elpo Began Dental life Busy bone and dog chow are all owned by this company Gibronies what do we think Guys. Jeez.

Part of me wants to go with Purina. That's, like, my guess, but... Because I think of Purina as owning a lot. Yeah, that's a point. But you're saying milkbone. Well, I just know them as, like, a treat, I guess. So that may... I don't know.

Maybe Purina. Maybe... Do we have... What do you want to say, Roman? Either one of those. They're all treats. Roman doesn't own a dog. Blue Diamond.

I think you made a valid point, Spencer, that this one man owns as many dogs as the four of us do. Oh, yeah. I didn't consider that. How many dogs do you have now, Randall? Three. We're a Kirkland family.

Oh, same here. We used to feed them. We used to feed them all the same food, and now we're feeding them weight control food. I don't know. It's going well, though. Milk bone? No bone.

Jibonis, we're going to need you to lock. getting an answer. Don't. Nope. No phone? Alex is looking at Hansi. I'm fucking sure. You better not screw this up.

Randall, do you know this one? No, I don't. Okay. Gibronies, are you ready? You're having second thoughts out. What are we doing? Are you ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers.

We have Randall saying, what's that say? I'ms. That's always a good time. Gibbons. Jibronis say Milkbone, the correct answer. answer is Purina

Or Nestle As soon as I said it I know I was wrong Or Nestle because Purina owns those brands and Nestle owns Purina.

Purina was founded in 1894 in St. Louis. The conglomerate owns dozens of brands, some of which they created and others that

they acquired. Purina became one of Nestle's fastest growing businesses in the last 20 years as pet owners have shown more

willingness to spend money on dogs and cats. It's now Nestle's most profitable division after pharmaceuticals. Question five, the topic is woodsmanship.

This word is defined as the partly decayed organic matter on the forest floor and also happens to be a famous fictional beer. This word is defined as the partly decayed organic matter on the forest floor.

It also happens to be a famous fictional beer. Randall has his answer locked in. of bronies? What do we think? You have to think about this. Would you pass me another marker? What's it called? Pretty confident. This is duff. This is a competition. D-U-F-F-F. Yeah. As in like Duff beer from the Simpsons. And then Pine Needle Duff. See, my mind went to schlitz's off of beer fest. Six schlitzes. But I actually think schlitz is a beer. Slits is a real beer. Yeah. This word is defined as the partly decayed organic matter on the

forest floor and also happens to be a Fuff sounds like something that would be I'm pretty confident on this one Hansi's got Hansi's got the feeling I trust Hansi for this King Gibroni Alex

I certainly didn't Oh now he's King Gibroni Go ahead and reveal your answers Gibronies and Randall say Duff they got it the correct answer is Duff Duff can consist of leaves pine needles branches bark and

the rotting wood. A healthy layer of duff is good for soil, bacteria, and invertebrates, but too much of it can cause problems. Occasional forest fires are the best way to ensure a healthy duff layer. As for the Simpsons beer, they pick the name. Duff, because it's a synonym for butt, saying, quote, Duff is a beer for people who sit on their fat ass all day. There we go.

All right, we're halfway through the game of trivia, Phil. Give us a scoreboard update. Geez. Yeah, unfortunately, the Purina answer they neglected to choose did not separate the two teams Randall and the Gibronies are tied up with

four points apiece at halftime Nail biter No perfect game. The wording on that Really, really stunning a little bit. I was kind of struggling with the wording in real time. You could probably hear it. But I think I got there. We did it. Can we crank this up a little bit? Go to All Madden.

The difficulty. Okay, we'll see how it goes. Hunting Big Country isn't for the faint of heart. You got steep ground, long distances, and miles of crown land that aren't always easy to navigate. That's why Anex Hunt just got a serious upgrade for hunters in Canada. Now you can get nationwide coverage for less than the cost of a box of shells with major updates to crown land layers and new parcel boundaries

where available. Scout access boundaries and terrain with confidence before you even lace up your boots. Whether you're chasing elk in the mountain spotting mule deer in the coolies are looking for big woods white tails. Anex gives you the tools to plan smarter and hunt harder. You'll still get fully functional offline maps, precise weather

conditions, real-time GPS tracking, and customizable markups to share with your crew. Big country demands better intel. Download Anex hunt and start your seven-day trial to get dialed before your next trip. Every hunter knows that the

wilderness is full of surprises. But sometimes what you find out there isn't an elk or a bear, it's something darker. They never made sense what law enforcement was saying to us. How could there have been no marks on her? This season on Blood Trails were following the trail of seven cases that start in the field and end in the shadows. Each story begins with the hunter stepping into the wild, but not all of them come back. All theories are out there. You know, everything from murder to UFOs to Bigfoot.

Join me as we track the truth through tangled cover and cold case files, where every trail tells a story, and every story leaves its own trail of blood. Blood trails. Listen now on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. question six the topic is wildlife and this next great question is via Julio Aldama the Monterey Bay Aquarium which is located in this state is the world's only aquarium to

successfully display a great white shark Randall has his answer Gibronies what do we think it could be California California the Monterey Bay Aquarium which is located in this state is the world's only aquarium to successfully display a great white shark. Do you believe that, Phil? Do I believe which part? Do you believe that's a question? I mean, can you believe that's a question that's being asked?

No offense to Julio. I'm an impartial participant over here. Randall, if you got that, you need a one right, you would be in the league. Yeah, so would you. Randall and Gibroni say California, they got it. The correct answer is California.

Great white struggle in captivity because of their need for vast open water. Failed attempts usually result in the sharks bumping up against the tank walls and refusing to eat. Monterey Bay Aquarium got their first great white in 2004, which they housed and studied for six months before returning to the ocean.

They've successfully done the same to a half dozen more great whites since then. Monterey Bay was named America's best aquarium by Forbes earlier this year. Spencer, earlier when you mentioned the sharks bumping into the tanks, I laughed and I don't want to give people the wrong impression. I've just been thinking a lot about the episode of Flight of the Concords where

Jermaine appears as David Bowie and he recommends that Brit wear an eye patch and he bumps into the doors. So I didn't want anybody to think that I was being incestive to the plight of Great Whites in captivity. People were concerned. But the audience who's watching would see me chuckle when you say that we were going to You don't want to be an anti-Great white. No, no, no, I'm fine with Sharkey. We were going to lose some randomals because no, a randomo loves an aquariums. But, you know, Flight of the Concords fans, you can join the movement now.

Bowie's in space. Oh, no. Bowie's bumped into another door. Question seven, the topic is fishing. This annual, which creates a fishing calendar based on moon phase and zodiac sign, announced that they'll publish their final issue in 2026. This is the first one that has slowed down Randall yet, even on the Purina answer

He confidently wrote that down But he still has not come up with anything yet For this annual Which creates a fishing calendar Based on Moon Phase and Zodiac sign Announced that they'll publish their final issue in 2026 Randall wrote something down But he's now reaching for his eraser

Jibronez you're going to have to wait Until he is locked in his guess This annual Which creates a fishing campaign calendar based on moon phase and zodiac sign announced that they'll publish their final issue in 2026. Randall? I got some clarification.

All right, Gibronies. What are we looking for? Annual is like a publication? Everything you need to know is in this question. So the only thing I can think of is the farmer's almanac here. As far as like being an annual publication and not like a monthly or a quarter. Worst for me. Yeah, I don't know.

I'm cool with that. This annual, which creates a fishing calendar based on moon phase and zodiac sign, announced that they'll publish their final issue in 2026. Farmer's Almanac. Send it. I like it. I like Randall's face right now when I say it. King Gibroni was monitoring Randall as he said that.

Yeah, I don't know if this is going to... I kind of refuse to believe that the Farmer's Almanac is going to see some. 26. I know. That's right. It's also an interesting tie-in with fishing, right? Yeah, I, that's the only thing I can think of as an annual, I guess, so. Gibronies, are you ready? Yeah. Yeah. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Jebroni's saying, Farmer's Almanac.

Randall says, Sportsman's Almanac. The correct answer is the farmer's almanac. Suck it! Suck it! Take advantage. of Randall getting that one wrong. Under your skit. So is the Spartzman's Almanac a real thing? I don't know. I don't think that is.

I mean, maybe some hyper-local thing that existed. I thought outside of, I didn't think widely enough. The Farmer's Almanac, not to be confused with the old Farmer's Almanac, has been in publication since 1818. They announced on November 6th that their next issue will be their final issue after a 208-year run. Their fishing calendar rates each day as being poor. fair, good, or best.

According to them, there are only seven best days left in 2025 for fishing. Those are November 20, excuse me, November 27th and 28th, December 5th and 6th, and December 24th through the 26th. So if you like the

Farmer's Almanac, only seven days left of really good fishing. Does it specify what you're fishing for on those days? I mean, you're asking too many questions at that point, so no. It doesn't specify anything. Their zodiac calendar for fishing does not concern whether it's a large mouth, the catfish or tarpin.

Question eight, the topic is conservation. Randall, were you close on that one? Had you considered farmers almond? No, no, I just, I thought of almanac, and I just, I was going to either write fisherman's almanac or sportsman's almanac and figured it was whatever. Hansi saved you guys. Hansi, you seem like someone who would respect the farmer's almanac and listen to them about when you should plant your strawberries.

You know, I do occasionally just Google up Farmer's Almanac for the winter season. Some good old people. I want to know how much I'm going to be plowing. Has Hansi won before? He won in all Gibronies tournament in the past. Yeah. So Hansi's a good jabroney.

I was just wondering if this was an actual if you're a setup. If you're being. Hansi's playing a strong game. And if they've gotten Purina, if they just listened to Hansi. Oh, no, you were milk growing. I was too deferential.

I steered incorrectly. I'm trying to pick apart the dynamic here. We've got three questions to go. I'm trying to turn you against one. handles crushing tape in the locker. We could start picking apart the dynamic over here as an alternative. No, no. How's that taste?

Does it taste? All that food that Spencer's chewing up for you and spitting in your mouth. You think I'm baby burdening them some questions? Question eight, the topic is conservation. This next great question is via Jeff Shannon. name one of the three countries with the highest population of African elephants We have stopped Randall in his tracks yet again Name one of the three countries with the highest population of African elephants

Randall has his answer locked in, Gibronies, what do we think it could be? Kenya. Did you see my board? That crossed my mind. You're looking at me thinking about Eastern Africa Yeah Kenya

What's it Namibia Yeah Namibia Namibia Kenya comes to my mind I think about elephants I think about Kenya

Roman chili Kenya sounds great I like Kenya I'm trying to think of Spencer's brain and with Steve being over there If that would be related to this question

But it's not Spencer's question This was Jeff Shan Is that a This question Does Zimbabwe have a, is that a... Zimbabwe could be one. That'd be an elephant-rich environment?

Name one of three countries with the highest population of African elephants. Yeah, and we've got three. I mean, we're in the lead. Consensus. Roman, did you... We should be following our gut, right? First answer to Canada. Did you also feel that?

It's speaking to me, sure. Okay. Did you feel that too? You're five and with... We want to Kenya? Kenya. King Gibroni is writing down his answer after accusing Randall accused them of watching his answer. Go ahead and reveal your answers.

We have both players saying Kenya, nobody got it. Oh! The three countries are Botswana, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe. Sunanzi again had one of them. According to the IUCN, Botswana has 130,000 elephants. Zimbabwe has 65,000 and Tanzania has 60,000. Those three countries

have over half of the world's African elephant population. All right, Phil, let's get a scoreboard update. Shoot. Looks good. Jibronis have pulled ahead by one point since the last scoreboard update. They have six points, and Randall is

behind them with five. Two questions to go. Question nine, the topic is hunting. Some mature bucks are said to have this type of nose, which Penn State describes as being hooked with a prominent bridge. Randall has his answer locked in. Gibronies, what do we think? It's Roman nose.

Roman nose? Agreed. That's what I was going to say. Some mature bucks are said to have this type of nose, which Penn State describes as being hooked with a prominent bridge. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have the gibronies. And Randall saying, Roman, that is the correct answer. Roman knows.

I didn't even consider that Roman would be here playing. I thought you were being cute. I was not, Roman. Congratulations for knowing Roman knows. I get on you. In general, it said that deer with a narrow, long nose are younger, while deer with a short, broad nose are older. The science behind this theory is shaky at best, though.

If there is truth to mature bucks having Roman noses, it's likely from cartilage in the muzzle getting saggy over time. Here's a picture of a textbook Roman nose. Is there other kinds of prominent noses? Among deer or just in general? Not really among deer. No, no, it's a Roman nose or not a Roman nose? And that's it.

All right, here's the correct answer review so far. One is North Dakota. Two, sashimi. Three, Survivor. Four, Purina or Nestle. Five, Duff. Six, California. Seven, farmers alman.

Eight, Botswana, Tanzania, or Zimbabwe. Nine, was a Roman nose. Going into question 10, we have the Gibronies, leading Randall by one point. Question 10, the topic is ecology. This is our listener question of the week, which was won by John Geis. For sending this great question, John is going to get a board game signed by the crew. If you want a chance to win the list or question of the week, then send your question to trivia at the meat eater.com.

This type of eight-letter well, which brings groundwater to the surface without pumping it, is often used by land managers to provide wildlife with water. If the gibronies can get this right, they will win it because they have a one-point lead on Randall. This type of eight-letter well, which brings groundwater to the surface without pumping it, is often used by land managers to provide wildlife with water.

I see some counting happening on the Gibroni fingers. Hansi, do you know it? I think I might. I think I'm like 80%. Randall, still looking at his hangman dashes. No, I don't do that. No, he doesn't. Okay, sorry. He's count in my head.

Like a grown-up. I have not ashamed of this. That would have been a great one, Phil. Which brings groundwater to the surface without pumping it is often used by land managers to provide wildlife with habitat, and Hansi is 80% sure that he knows it. You have an eight-letter word, Hansi. I do, yeah, it might not be right.

But it is close if it isn't right. Randall, still thinking. Oh, oh. The final question. This type of eight-letter well, which brings groundwater to the surface without pumping it, is often used by land managers to provide wildlife with water. You other three gibronies, are you going to have any resistance to Hansi's answer? Negative.

No. No. Do you guys know it? Could you three come up with it? Not ringing a bell. No. Okay. Randall, do you have an eight-letter word?

His answer is locked in. Hansi, what do you think it is? Okay, so I think it's my Aunt Ruthie was who was like 87 years old. I think that's more than eight letters. Had one of these on her property and she was known as the Walleye Queen of Indian River in northern Michigan. She was a badass.

Very good. She had an artesian well on her property, which I believe is what this is. Sounds right to me. A R-T-E-S-I-A-N. She's a wall-eye queen. The walleye queen. And she fished for wall-wileys like every day,

all season long every year almost until she died good for her Malai Queen All right Jibonis you ready go ahead and reveal your answers we have Randall

and the Jibronies saying Artesian well that's correct it's the artesian wells meaning the Jibronies beat Randall by one point well done Jibronies Artesian wells are tapped

into confined aquifers that contain enough pressure to bring water to the surface all on their own. These wells are usually deeper than other wells and in a layer of rock that's impermeable. Because of their consistent output, artesian wells are often used to water livestock,

wildlife, and entire ponds. Was there some lore around the walleye queen's artesian well? Was it like the best drinking water that you'd ever have? Oh, it was delicious. It was great water. Always cold. Always clean. Yep, yeah, beautiful.
