I'm the titular Matt Stewart. Our first guest this week is from Finding Yeezus and the Total Reboot podcast. It's Alexei Tolyopoulos. Matt, it is my pleasure to return to the podcast and to once again show my incredible intellect in knowing Fun facts from around the globe
Starting point is 00:01:05 It's so good to have your big intellect Back on the pod and our Second guest this week is The book chook himself host of The do go on and book cheat podcasts It's Dave Warnicky Hello it's so great to be here To show my total lack of
Starting point is 00:01:22 Intellect you are the yin and Yang of the podcast world. Finally, the two mighty sides of the spectrum have met. I'm here to lift you up and make you look good, Lexi. Thank you. But, you know, Dave, you are one of the great trivia minds. You and I have a background in trivia. So, I think we might be seeing a clash of some kind of trivia titans.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Here we go. Okay, well, put them up. I'm ready. This is why the house invited you on to try and you know beat the undebeatable undebeatable that's undebatable but you're undebeatable oh no uh and lex uh we've interrupted you uh you're coming in down the line from sydney australia and you've got and you've got an oven cooking there in the background? Yes. I am recording from my kitchen because I am baking a cake as this podcast records.
Starting point is 00:02:13 I am baking a cake. I had other plans today as well. You know, I've got my life does not just revolve around podcast appearances, but I am baking a cake. I'm not just a debater. I'm a freaking baker as well Well I look forward to seeing and hearing How the process goes today I shall give you hints at what the cake is
Starting point is 00:02:36 Perhaps throughout the game Okay I will start with one ingredient now Okay Flour Okay so it's not a Flourless cake Okay
Starting point is 00:02:46 I'm gonna go sponge Mmm I'm gonna go Black forest Both Incredibly Incorrect guesses Okay
Starting point is 00:02:54 Incredibly Incorrect Extremely Far off so far Like embarrassingly so Oh there is not one Scant berry in this cake So let alone a
Starting point is 00:03:05 black forest full of them Alexi just in case you've forgotten how the show works this is how it goes I'll ask a relatively obscure wow you're gonna ask a relatively obtuse question of some kind a relatively obscure trivia question and our contestants have to write a convincing fake answer. I then read their answers as well as the real one and I have to guess which one is correct.
Starting point is 00:03:30 Are we ready to play? Yes. Absolutely. The first question comes from listener Kelly Clark from Perth. And Kelly's question is, the word zucchetto means small gourd in Italian. Wow. But what does it mean when it comes to Christianity? Wow.
Starting point is 00:03:50 The word zucchetto means small gourd in Italian. Small gourd? Gourd, which is like the family that pumpkins and stuff come from. Okay. I believe it would be related to the word zucchinis, my guess. Oh. I think a zucchini might be a gourd, yeah. Geez, you are good at this Lex Well you know I'm bilingual
Starting point is 00:04:09 So I understand multiple languages Giving me access to greater means Of understanding the world around me So what does Zucchetto mean When it comes to Christianity And while you're writing your answers I'll explain how the scoring works So you get one point if your fake answer is guessed by the other contestant another
Starting point is 00:04:28 point if you correctly guess the answer and by the way i'm also playing as the house and i've put in two of my own fake answers for each question and i get a point for each one of those that our guests choose so each of us can score up to two points per round which seems fair but the probability actually favors me the house and the house always wins though if you've listened to previous episodes you know that is not necessarily the case anyway our questions come from our great patreon supporters and if you want to write a question sign up on any level via patreon.com slash do go on pod which is linked in the show notes oh my god is that a cake based alarm that is my cake to be tested in one moment oh wow wow so give me one moment I will send my message
Starting point is 00:05:08 and then I shall go check the cake but one moment for that and we've got to ask how the cake's going before we get to these answers yeah the cake looks wonderful it smells delectula delectula? on a molecular level
Starting point is 00:05:22 yeah on a molecular level it it's Delecut. It smells real good. Do you want me to reveal one ingredient? Yeah, one more ingredient, please. Oh, it's a citrus. There's a citrus in there. Oh, lemon cake. Not lemon. Not lemon, mate.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Okay. Let me tell you, we'll put three guesses down. I think you'll get the citrus. Is this some sort of orange slice? No, no, no. No, you'll get it on the next one, I reckon. The next citrus. Oh, definitely mandarin.
Starting point is 00:05:48 You're close. All right. Well, we'll wait and see. Yep. We respect the game and we'll wait for the next round. I think a little bit of this cake-based bee plot might make it. I've started, since you last here, Alexi, I've started doing some... Trimming out some stuff and putting the real juicy bits at the end.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Awesome to find out something's not going to make the main cut while it's happening. No, no, I'm telling... I mean, obviously, the game part will, but some of that, like when you're off at the oven and we're hearing you rattling around,
Starting point is 00:06:20 I think some of that might get trimmed out and put at the end. I wouldn't cut it all together. What a way to be put on notice. Hey, this three line, it's not going to make it. Hang on. You're taking me all wrong. The only one that's meant to be cutting the cake is me, sir.
Starting point is 00:06:34 So leave it in. I think this whole segment is de-lecular. All right. So here is question number one. The word zucchetto means small gourd in Italian. But what does it mean in terms of Christianity? A traditional drum used by the little drummer boy, which was made by stretching fabric across a hollowed out pumpkin. Wow.
Starting point is 00:06:57 A golden amulet used to store and bless incense. A skullcap worn by Catholic bishops and other Catholic clerics, a vegetable consumed in ancient Babylonia that was considered to be the fruits of the gods, not the gourds, or a small chimney at the Vatican that lets the people know when a new Pope meal is ready. White smoke indicates the Pope's dinner is good to go while black smoke signifies it's burnt wow now that you know we still use that every day in the baking world as well yeah we look at over Alexi's shoulder there's a lot of black smoke coming from that oven okay some wonderful answers submitted by both the house and presumably Dave and myself.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Presumably. Any jumping out at you? I love skullcaps. I'll tell you, I love skullcaps and I love picturing that a little fella, you know, perhaps a priest or something or a monk with a little skullcap that's shaped like a zucchini. I like that. It's like a little top, you know, the little part of the zucchini, the top where the root attaches to it? Yes. I'm picturing that on a guy's head.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Yeah, what a beautiful adornment that would be. I'm cackling on the inside. I'm delighted in it. I was thinking you more meant long ways for the zucchini, so it just went down the middle like a mohawk, which I also like. Wow, there are so many ways to wear a zucchetto You must assume that If that is the correct one
Starting point is 00:08:28 That must have been where it began Must have been just a dried out zucchetto Yeah absolutely I don't know where I'm leaning To be honest I'm also thinking about that beautiful gourd With the skin or whatever turned on To turn into a beautiful drum of some kind
Starting point is 00:08:45 for the little drummer boy one of the great instruments but little drummer boy seems too recent to be part of like it's like modern christianity oh maybe you didn't say it was there wasn't he there when in the no maybe in the stable was he not there in the stable i think that would be pretty annoying a A donkey, a cow, a boy doing a drum solo. Maybe I'm thinking of Whiplash where I'm thinking it's quite a modern drummer boy. That's the modern drummer boy. I'm going to go Zucchetto is a little skullcap worn by, what did you say, Orthodox priests or some shit? Catholic bishops and other Catholic clerics.
Starting point is 00:09:22 Clerics. It's a clerical hat. Yes. Okay. it was a great jane silent bob film clerics we pronounce it differently down here um i think i was also interested in the skullcap one but we also number one was pumpkin drummer boy yes number two was the golden amulet number three incense uh the skullcap one but we also number one was pumpkin drummer boy yes number two was the golden amulet number three incense uh the skullcap four i think it's the one i've forgotten uh the vegetable consumed in ancient babylonia oh or the small chimney in the vatican
Starting point is 00:09:56 between i think it was between skullcap and drummer boy and alexi's going with skullcap so please lock in Drummer Boy. You, of course, can always go for the same. But you want to go Drummer Boy? Now, where's the fun in that? Drummer Boy, please. All right. Let's go through who wrote the answers.
Starting point is 00:10:12 The small chimney at the Vatican. That was written by the house. Wow. The vegetable consumed in ancient Babylonia was written by Alexi. I think you must have missed the bit that was Said it was about Christianity Because you've gone pre-Christianity I think Well you know that's part of the same book
Starting point is 00:10:32 Oh that's true They love that old stuff You're thinking First Testament Old Testament I'm a moron okay I'll admit it That's what I was saying. The golden amulet used to store and bless incense. That was Dave.
Starting point is 00:10:50 I love amulets. I love them. Oh, amulets are fantastic. What are they? Of course, I've always said that about you. That's one of the most amuleted men that I know, wearing a lovely amulet at all times. At all times. Is an amulet like one of those things that's like a little necklace that opens up?
Starting point is 00:11:03 Yeah. And they often, you know, it's like, find the golden amulet. Right. Is it like the one that little orphan Annie had in the movie Annie? I think you're thinking of a locket, mate. A locket. That's a locket. An amulet's not shaped like a heart with like a message from like your parents.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Okay. A photo of your best friend in there. That's a modern day amulet Amulet is more to like you know you complete a quest And the amulet will open I think Well that's what the little orphan Annie was trying to complete The quest of finding her parents Wow and then it will open
Starting point is 00:11:35 Yeah her half of the amulet Was going to match their half But fine if you don't get culture Um The uh The traditional drum used by the little drummer boy, that was written by Kelly, a.k.a. The House. Oh, you got me, Kelly. So a point there for The House, meaning, Alexi, you are correct.
Starting point is 00:11:55 It's a skullcap worn by Catholic bishops and other Catholic clerics. Wow. Snoochie-boochie. That must have been a Saturday Night Live sketch at one point. I can imagine it. A couple of bishops behind a counter. I wasn't even supposed to be praying today. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:12:18 All right, so quick score check if you need it. Alexi on one point. House on one point. Dave, yet to score. Okay. That brings up to score. Okay. That brings us up to question number two. It feels personal, but okay. Let's move on.
Starting point is 00:12:29 I feel a mighty vengeance is about to be struck upon me. All right. Here it is. This one comes from Susie from Sacramento. Well, Sacramento Suze. And Sacramento Suze asks, Why did Jason Stoll of Florida get arrested on may the 12th 2022 why did jason stole of florida get arrested on may the 12th 2022 while you're writing your answers
Starting point is 00:12:55 here's some more info on zucchettos kelly writes i've paraphrased this from wikipedia.org a great website that seems to be about the funky hats different Christians wear. Oh, that's cool. Always good to hear about a new online resource. Kelly continues. It is almost identical to the Jewish kippah or yarmulke, except for a small stem at the top. Oh, Lex, that would be that little stem that it's got. Wow.
Starting point is 00:13:23 It must be zucchini related. Wow. The zucchetto originated as the Greek pilos and is related to the beret, which itself was originally a large zucchetto. Whoa. Oh, my gosh. Holy moly. So it's a tiny beret. It's a tiny beret.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I love that. I might start wearing those together Oh I think I know what they are I've seen them on cardinals and stuff They wear a little kind of beret thing A little pipply on the top you know Yes A little tiny little pokey
Starting point is 00:13:56 That's right Yes I'm looking at one now Yeah it sort of looks like the top of a banana or something Or an apple I suppose the red one looks a lot like the top of an apple. I would have called it an apple hat. Appletini or something. I can see the hunger in your eyes while you're looking at it.
Starting point is 00:14:12 You're going to frigging feast on this guy's hands. Yeah, you wouldn't want to be wearing one of them around me, I tell you that. Oh, I wonder if the cake's an apple cake. I know it's... I just think maybe the citrus clue might have been a red herring. Oh, right. As in a lie. A lie.
Starting point is 00:14:29 I would know a lie. Is that what a red herring is? Wow. Shall I reveal to you what the citrus in the cake is? Oh, I think we know. It's got to be lime. No way, Jose. Dave, what are you thinking?
Starting point is 00:14:43 Okay. Grapefruit. Correct. Dave, what are you thinking? Okay. Grapefruit. Oh. Correct. It is grapefruit. Wow. That was nothing. Wow.
Starting point is 00:14:50 So, you've got like, it's a sour, sweet, sweetness. It's more sweetness. More sweetness it will translate to in the end. That, to me, that doesn't sound like something I'd want to eat. Wow. My dad used to get up in the morning and squeeze a glass of grapefruit juice and eat it every- drink it every morning. I had a sip one time. It was awful stuff.
Starting point is 00:15:12 I think every hotel buffet with a breakfast I've ever been to have been tricked into that. You see, there's the apple, there's the orange. You have a glass of each and you think, may as well have a- go to the trifecta here. I'll get the grapefruit juice thinking it's going to be delicious and sweet and refreshing, but it is tangy. Yeah. It's tang. It's a powerful tang. It's huge.
Starting point is 00:15:31 It is vile-less, unfortunately. It sounds like it should be so good. Grapes. So sweet and juicy. And fruit. That's a tick tick. My favourite thing that a grape is. The fruit's so nice they named it twice Yeah
Starting point is 00:15:50 It does feel like any fruit with fruit at the end is I mean it's trying too hard isn't it Yeah Absolutely It's trying to remind you what it is Because its taste is so far removed from what you associate with fruit Exactly So have we guessed
Starting point is 00:16:02 Is that the full guess It's a grapefruit cake or there's more? No. There's more to it. Much more to it. I'll tell you the main thing of the grapefruit is I zest two grapefruits and then I infuse sugar with the zest of the grapefruit. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:16:17 All right. What about... Oh, do we have another guess now or is that grapefruit is what we got to? We got to wait another round to have another guess. We'll wait another round. I'll tell you the other key ingredients. Fantastic. And it will be revealed to pretty much the whole cake is there.
Starting point is 00:16:33 The other ingredient is cake. Yeah, I basically smashed the grapefruit into the cake and yum, yum, yum. All right. We're up to question number two from Sacramento Sue. Why did Jason Stoll of Florida get arrested on May the 12th, 2022? He released his pet alligator into a supermarket as an act of revenge after he was accused of stealing deli meat. Wow.
Starting point is 00:16:57 I would take that very personally if I was accused of stealing deli meat so I can understand his vengeful soul. But they're so delicious. He threw a hot dog at a police officer. He was transporting narcotics across state lines smuggled inside the bellies of alligators. He tried to buy drugs off a cop at a Halloween party, assuming their uniform was a costume. Or he committed an armed robbery using a small handheld Alligator as a weapon Does this tell our Florida listeners
Starting point is 00:17:34 What we think of them this is all we Know about you unless it's proven right One of the three are right and then we Were correct to assume that wow three of The five alligator base three of the three are right And then we were correct To assume that Wow Three of the five Alligator based Three of the five And the other ones were
Starting point is 00:17:49 Narcotics Hot dogs based No Hot dogs and cop based Yes that's right Hot dogs and cops Wow It sounds like a good album name
Starting point is 00:17:57 Hot dogs and cops You know I like that Dave what do you think Okay so Look I don't want to be Fact check Fred over
Starting point is 00:18:05 here, but I believe you said this took place in May, this arrest. Were they arrested for an incident? Are we meant to believe that they were arrested for a Halloween party six months after they attended it? It took them a while to find them. Yeah, that makes
Starting point is 00:18:22 sense. He would have been in costume himself at the time. Yeah, exactly. So it took have been in costume himself At the time So it took them a while to identify who the guy was They were looking for Dr. Victor Frankenstein For six months Cops work slow in Florida Unless you're Horatio From CSR Miami
Starting point is 00:18:38 What a guy Which one was Horatio? He was the one that was always Saying a pithy line and putting the sunglasses on as the Who player. I thought that was all of them. No. No, he was definitely the king. He's the redhead. He'd be a fan. What was his actor's name?
Starting point is 00:18:54 Lex? David Caruso? David something. It is Caruso. How did my brain access that? I never saw the show. Was it NYPD Blue as well? That guy? Yeah. Okay. So I'm thinking... So you're ruling that one out as well, that guy? Oh, yeah. Okay. So, I'm thinking- So, you're ruling that one out? You probably just threw a hot dog at a cop.
Starting point is 00:19:09 I don't know if that's an arrestable offense. If I was a cop and a hot dog got tossed at me, I'd be really annoyed, but I'm not going to go, let's get this B, you know? I'd be saying, have another shot and opening my mouth even wider. Let's go again, double or nothing. And then, to differentiate the three alligator based stories what were they in uh so you had releasing a pet alligator in a supermarket as an act of revenge for the deli meats uh transporting narcotics inside alligators
Starting point is 00:19:39 or committing an armed robbery using a small handheld alligator. Handheld alligator. Handheld is an incredible detail. A sawn-off alligator. Unfortunately, that means he was just pointing like an open stomach of an alligator. Hey, that would work for me. I'm like, wow, he's going to spill some hot acid and bile on me. Yeah, this is gross. I mean, sometimes you go with the one you
Starting point is 00:20:06 want it to be and that's the one i want it to be all right hold up with an alligator all right locking that in for dave what are you thinking lex uh good lord almighty what am i thinking um uh you know what maybe i will go the hot dog i'm gonna go the hot dog yeah i gotta go to hot dog. I'm going to go to hot dog. Yeah. I'm going to go to hot dog. All right. Hot dog for Lex. Here's who wrote the answers. He released his pet alligator in a supermarket as an act of revenge. That was Dave Warnke. I love deli meats.
Starting point is 00:20:36 He was transporting narcotics across state lines inside the bellies of alligators. That was Alexi. He tried to buy drugs off a cop at a halloween party that was the house damn you dave sorry for i did the and so i should have just said a dress-up party i flew too close to the sun much like icarus wow one of my ancestors uh he committed an armed robbery using a small handheld alligator that was also the house damn it but funnily enough suzy's initial answer was very close to yours dave she wrote he threw an alligator into a fast food restaurant and i extrapolated that to handheld alligator.
Starting point is 00:21:28 And then that means one point of the house there. And the correct answer is he threw a hot dog at a police officer. What the hell? So, once again, one point to the house, one point to Alexei. I think that's not that bad. The cop is corrupt, I'll say. Depends if the hot dog is covered in sauce. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:21:47 Or a mustard. I was imagining just a boiled dog. That's it. No bun. Yeah, just flopped onto a raw dog. You got raw dog to cop. Oh, raw or cooked? Yeah, man, a cold dog.
Starting point is 00:22:03 That's insulting. If it's nicely cooked in a bun. Yeah, you appreciate that. Yeah, that, a cold dog. That's insulting. If it's nicely cooked in a bun. Yeah, you appreciate that. Yeah, that feels like, what is this? That's just teppanyaki. He's just throwing food that you enjoy. All right. Question number three comes from Betsy from California.
Starting point is 00:22:21 And Betsy's question is, which of the following is a real breed of cattle? Which of the following is a real breed of cattle? So, you've just got to come up with a fake name for cattle, a breed of cattle? Which of the following is a real breed of cattle? So you've just got to come up with a fake name for cattle, a breed of cattle. While you're writing your answers, I'll let the audience know a little bit more about the hot dog incident. According to the Channel 8 News website, a Newport Ritchie man was arrested on a felony charge Saturday
Starting point is 00:22:41 after authorities said he threw a hot dog at an officer who was warning him of violating a city ordinance. Officers said he threw a hot dog at an officer who was warning him of violating a city ordinance. Officers said Jason Stoll, 47, ignored the warnings and continued to sell hot dogs in the roadway Saturday around 12am after his street closure permit had ended.
Starting point is 00:22:58 Oh my gosh. Stoll was asked to put the hot dog down, but authorities said he continued his attempt to sell it. Put the hot dog down. No, who wants to buy it? Stoll then became extremely upset before he intentionally threw a hot dog at the officer. The officer was in full police uniform at the time of the incident. Stoll was charged with battery on a law enforcement officer And resisting an officer
Starting point is 00:23:25 Without violence I mean He's lucky For that to be called Without violence But without violence Are they saying that Like so
Starting point is 00:23:32 The charge is You didn't use enough violence Yeah Our problem here is You didn't resist enough If you're gonna resist Do it with violence mate If convicted
Starting point is 00:23:42 He would face up to Three years in jail No That's really bad Up to a minimum Minimum Up to a minimum Violence, mate. If convicted, he would face up to three years in jail. No. Up to a minimum. Minimum? Up to a minimum of three years in jail. That's a baffling sentence.
Starting point is 00:23:56 According to Susie, a little bit more information to paint a picture of this man. He's got a tattoo that says, hustle, eat, sleep, repeat. Motto that we all live by in some regard, I guess. I agree with Susie. He says, it's a good motto. Bang on, Sus. Here's question number three. Which of the following is a real breed of cattle?
Starting point is 00:24:16 Bahama Brahma? White spoofed Macy? Fucking oh Like what? Hoofed Macy maybe But That's fantastic Oh shit Why spoof Macy? That's fantastic Oh shit Why spoofed Macy That's one of my favourite actors
Starting point is 00:24:48 The Adelaide Cows Adelaide Plural Florida Cracker Or the Humongous Heifer Wow I can't believe one of them's real Bahama Brahma
Starting point is 00:25:04 What spoofed Macy The Adelaide Cows Florida Cracker Or the Humongous Heifer. Wow. I can't believe one of them's real. Bahama Brahma, White Spoofed Macy, the Adelaide Cows, Florida Cracker, or the Humongous Heifer. Wow. I've been trying to bring Cracker back recently. I've been calling people Cracker. Yeah. And Honky. I've been calling people Honkies and Crackers recently. Wow.
Starting point is 00:25:19 I don't think it's ever been really used over here much as a term. If I hear Cracker, I think that person's like a lot of fun. Oh, he's a real cracker. He's a cracker. He's a cracker jack. She's an absolute cracker. That seems like a point. But yeah, you're trying to bring it back in an egg.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Yeah, because, you know, we use skip a lot in Australia. Skip is kind of what we would call a cracker. But now I'm trying to bring cracker and honky back. I'm going to call people honkies. Yeah, okay. So, I'm tempted to go cracker because of that. But the other ones I'm looking at, heifer, I know is a term used for cows and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:25:58 It's true. But cracker is so tempting. And also, white spoofed maize. Yeah. How do you spell that? How do you spell it? White, as you And also white spoofed Macy. Yeah. How do you spell that? How do you spell it? White, as you'd expect, spoofed or spoofed, as you'd expect. And Macy and Macy, E-Y.
Starting point is 00:26:11 Wow, and you would expect those together. Yeah, it's a tautology, really, isn't it? White spoofed. Let me know if it's out of the ordinary. You can just say spoofed Macy. me know if it's out of the ordinary you can just say spoofed macy um i i'm gonna go bahama brahma bahama brahma for wet yeah because probably there are cows in the bahamas probably and i don't know what brahma is maybe it's a cow and what do you think Dave What was the humongous heifer
Starting point is 00:26:47 Humongous heifer I reckon that that could be like some sort of Super breed of cow Like and they're real big Like Okja Yeah I'm going to say humongous heifer Right locking that in for Dave Here's who wrote the answers
Starting point is 00:27:02 What spoofed Macy was Dave Warnke Wow Dave congratulations You want to take a look at the process Thank you so much that in for Dave. Here's who wrote the answers. White spoofed Macy was Dave Warnecke. Wow. Dave, congratulations. Do you want to talk us through the process? Thank you so much. I'll talk you through it. I tried it. I was going to write white spotted, but for some reason, auto-corrected to spoof or spoof.
Starting point is 00:27:20 And I was like, I know what I want to call this. So, it's part AR. Yeah call this. Wow. Wow. Wow. So it was part AI. Yeah, exactly. Oh, yeah. Outsourced. Yeah, co-written by Mr. Jobs and his famous algorithm. The white spoofed mosey. The Adelaide cows.
Starting point is 00:27:36 That was the house. I forgot about Adelaide cows. Do you remember there was an old ad where the... Because the Adelaide Crows are a football team in Australia, and there was an ad where the guy painting the logos on the field misspelt it. There was this whole ad campaign about the Adelaide Cows. That's a good campaign. I can't remember what it was advertising, but yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Probably a pie or something. Yeah, probably a pie. Probably a pie or a beer. Insurance. Or a Toyota Camry. The Bahama Brahma, that was the house wow in particular betsy from california wrote that one and uh i just looked it up so you said it sounds like it could be a breed of cow and it a brahman is a cow so it's one n off being an actual- Oh, wow. Apparently Brahma is a Hindu god.
Starting point is 00:28:26 So the Bahama Brahma. Oh, wow. I mean, there's a lot going on there and it's all good stuff. Wow, it's really good. Wow. Well, so can I get a point anyway? Have I guessed it? Ah, no.
Starting point is 00:28:36 The house will get a point there. But you will get a point because Dave picked your answer, the humongous heifer. Oh, it felt so real. Meaning- Oh, you want to talk us through your process there well humongous is one of my favorite words heifer another one of my favorite words so i either had to put them together a bit of alliteration there can't go wrong uh that means the correct answer you were on the right track early lexi it is florida cracker no i feel so pissed off. I thought Dave wrote Cracker. I'm more of a spoof kind of guy.
Starting point is 00:29:09 I mean, if you want to bring it back, you could use the Florida Cracker cattle as maybe the emblem. That's awesome. This guy's a real Florida Cracker cow. So, that brings us up to question number four. And this one is by Tim Kaiser from Minnesota. And he's asking a Minnesota-based question, too. Love a bit of local lingo. Tim's question is, what is the name of the cheeseburger invented in Minneapolis, Minnesota,
Starting point is 00:29:36 where the cheese is injected directly into the meat patty? Oh, my God. Mmm, delicious. What is the name of the cheeseburger invented in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where the cheese is injected straight into the meat? While you're writing your answers, here's a little bit more info about the Florida Cracker. According to Betsy, the Florida Cracker cattle are a heritage breed originating from the cattle brought to the Americas by the Spanish in the 1500s. According to floridamemory.com, the origin of the term Florida cracker
Starting point is 00:30:07 is somewhat in dispute. Some say it refers to the cracking sound made by the whips used by early white settlers to herd their cattle. Others say the term comes from the use of cracked corn in making moonshine, a common activity on the Florida frontier. Hmm, what do you think?
Starting point is 00:30:22 And while you're still writing your answers, let's go for a quick break i'll tell you the other ingredient for my cake okay here we go here we go it is an olive oil grapefruit citrus cake olive oil we were not going to ever guess that yeah olive oil grapefruit citrus cake so that doesn't sound like it should be good well it will be good let's trust me it's my new signature cake where have you found it yeah i found it from a chef that i quite like molly bars cookbook and uh yeah you use olive oil and greek yogurt as the two fats in the cake all right your answers are answers are in. So here's question number four.
Starting point is 00:31:05 What is the name of the cheeseburger invented in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where the cheese is injected directly into the meat? The camemberger. Oh. Oh. That makes me hungry.
Starting point is 00:31:15 Great freaking cheese to be inside a burger. The smack jack. Oh. Juicy Lucy. The Dakota dripper. Or the sweaty woman. Wow. Wow. Juicy Lucy The Dakota Dripper Or The Sweaty Woman Wow
Starting point is 00:31:26 All beautiful delicacies Sweaty Woman What was number four before Sweaty Woman? The Dakota Dripper Trying to figure out why a Minnesota thing Would be named after Dakota Or is Dakota in Minnesota? Dakota, Minnesota
Starting point is 00:31:43 Oh my god, that makes sense That's not true at all North Dakota and South Dakota are states Where is or is Dakota in Minnesota? Dakota, Minnesota. Oh, my God. That makes sense. That's not true at all. Where is Dakota? North Dakota and South Dakota are states. Oh, it's a state. Yeah. Okay. Well, that's what I was trying to get to.
Starting point is 00:31:52 Yeah. But when you're like, oh, Dakota, Minnesota. It makes sense because it rhymes. Anything that rhymes must be within the other. It's true. Rhyming's rhymes are facts in this world. I would say. Rhymes are facts.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Rhymes overrule any of you little geography books? If it fits, you must acquit. It makes sense. So, Dave, it sounds like you've got a bit of an inkling here, a bit of a feeling. Well, this is going to be one of those days. No, I'm thinking that just because I find it appetizing doesn't mean it's probably right.
Starting point is 00:32:21 But the Cammon burger does sound like something I want to eat. We had smack. Smack Jack. juicy lucy dakota dripper sweaty woman well you know she is walking down the street what that is quite a perspiring thing to do power walking down the street yeah it the least appetizing Sounding of them And none None of them sound That appetizing But the sweaty woman

Starting point is 00:33:03 I don't know if I'd Personally eat a sweaty woman. But they have always weird names. Like, all these, like, little American delicacies that, like, are across the country. I think they all have, like, these little odd names. Yeah, true. They're all proud of them as well. They're so proud of them.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Dave's a big fan of a Vermont special. Oh, Vermont. Oh, Vermont, sorry. My favorite U.S. state is Vermont, Alexi. One of the least populous ones. But they are famous for the creamy, which I haven't tried yet. What's the creamy? It's basically like a soft serve.

Yeah. a creamy we'll fly and get a creamy fly yeah um so i'm wondering if dakota dripper is either a red herring or the name it's been put in there as like something that's notable because it's not even from dakota you know what i mean like am i overthinking it here camembert is that a popular cheese in the states i don't know i think they more prefer the orange stuff yeah they're like

I mean, it's speaking to me. I'm going to say Dakota Dripper. I think it's one of those. There'll be a strange story behind it. Okay. I'm putting the Dakota Dripper. I think it's Monterey Jack, the big.
Starting point is 00:34:52 That's one of the big American ones. Yeah. All right. So, Dakota Dripper for Dave. I'm a looking Juicy Lucy. And Juicy Lucy. Yeah. For Alexi.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Would you both eat a burger like this? If you're in town, say you're in Minnesota. And they said,. Oh. Yeah. For Lexi. Would you both eat a burger like this? If you're in town, say you're in Minnesota. And they said, this is the specialty. It's like a beef patty with cheese injected. Hell yes, I would. Yeah. Absolutely. Mmm.
Starting point is 00:35:13 Yeah, yeah. I love cheese on burgers. My tummy is gurgling. Well, you've got a whole cake behind you, sir. I know, know, know, know. All right. Let's go through. Who wrote the answers? The Camemberger. That was the house. It, no, no, no. All right, let's go through. Who wrote the answers?
Starting point is 00:35:25 The Camemberger. That was the house. It's a great name. Great, great suggestion. Definitely the most appetizing of the five. The Smack Jack. That was Dave. Wow.
Starting point is 00:35:36 Thank you. Wonderful. Because you could smack a burger. Oh, yeah. Slap a bun on a burger. I was wondering if it smacks like a nickname for heroin, which you inject. And then Jack Cheese. Maybe I overthought it a bit here. No, a bun on a burger. I was wondering if it smacks like a nickname for heroin, which you inject. Oh, no. And then Jack Cheese.
Starting point is 00:35:46 Maybe I overthought it a bit here. No, I think it's fantastic. Injecting cheese. That's sort of where I went with. Love it. The sweaty woman. That was Tim, aka The House. Tim, you're a sick puppy, brother.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Tim, what were you thinking? You're a sick puppy, mate. What have we said? We said the Dakota Dripper. Tim what were you thinking Sick puppy mate What have we said We said the Dakota Dripper That was what Dave went for That was Alexi Oh great work mate A Dakota Dripper could also be a sweaty woman as well I guess
Starting point is 00:36:15 And the correct answer was Juicy Lucy So maximum points for Alexi there And let it be revealed now I knew the answer I've fucking eaten the Juicy Lucy I've made the Juicy Lucy at home. What do you mean? I've made one.
Starting point is 00:36:30 I've eaten one from my own hands that I've birthed into this world. That's incredible. What was it like? It was cracker ass, man. It's funny. I've worked so hard to avoid, because you're a cinephile. We all know that. Registered.
Starting point is 00:36:41 And I had to work hard to find a movie that I thought you wouldn't know, but I didn't think that you're also a burgerphile. I'm a foodie. You're a foodie. I let it be known. I'm a person who appreciates the culinary arts and form. That brings us up to question number five. And this comes from Simon from Seaford in Victoria.
Starting point is 00:36:59 In 2015, a student journalist for the University of Oklahoma's newspaper leaked What Secret About Jack White? What secret about Jack White. What secret about Jack White was leaked in 2015? And how would the student newspaper know it? Wow, amazing. While you're writing your answers, here's some more info about Juicy Lucy's from Thrillist.com. I don't know if I'm saying that right. Unlike every other food served in a restaurant, the Juicy Lucy comes with a warning not to eat it.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Food served in a restaurant. The Juicy Lucy comes with a warning not to eat it. Dave, I feel like if we finally get to America for a Do Go On tour, our other podcast, we've got to tick off some of these food things. Juicy Lucy. And you're not supposed to eat it. So, it's in Minnesota. In the Twin Cities. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:36 Okay. But it says it comes with a warning not to eat it. At least not at first. And this is what the waitress told the author here. You boys know you need to wait a minute or two Or you'll get burned Oh right Wow So this is at Matt's Bar
Starting point is 00:37:51 One of the restaurants that claims to be the originator of it It's one of those classic ones where two different restaurants say they came up with it I had heard as well that when someone bit into it the first time They're like that's one juicy Lucy. That is right. That's what Matt's Bar claims is the origin story. Wow. And they also spell it J-U-C-Y.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Juicy. So, the other place spells Lucy wrong, L-U-I-C-Y. The other place is the 5-8 Club. And when they order it there, they also get a warning from the server saying, give it a little time before you bite or it'll bite back. Oh. Not a bad little line, that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:32 But they do spell Lucy, Juicy and Lucy correctly. Imagine having to say that 70 times in one shift. Yeah. God, the light would really go out from behind your eyes. So, apparently it is a Minneapolis creation and it's unique to the gopher state. I like that that's what they're called. Like, gopher is in the creature, or, like, go for, like, let's go for this. I mean, it's probably both, but it's written like the creature.
Starting point is 00:38:56 Wow, okay. I'd love to see one of those creatures in person. I'd love to see it, yeah, pop up from a burrow, like, just... Like in Caddyshack? Okay. I would go nuts to see a little head pop out of a burrow one day. Just start cheering. Hell yeah, brother.
Starting point is 00:39:11 That's funny. We should be feeling like that when we see a possum crawl along a power lawn. Oh, but you know, that's old hat for us. I've seen it many a time. I remember when I first went to America, I saw squirrels running around and I was going, oh, my God. It's the Chippendale Rescue Rangers. And Americans were not- They were like, what are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:39:33 They're just little pests. What are you talking about? These are the heroes here to save the day. So, the Juicy Lucy involves essentially combining two thin patties around a ball of American cheese and sealing the corners. It's delicious when you put it like that. So, that when the burger is cooked, the cheese inside gets melty and gooey and explodes in your mouth when you break through. There is no dispute that Juicy Lucy's burger origin is Cedar Avenue in South Minneapolis, but where on Cedar Avenue is a whole other story. Matt's Bar is one that claims it,
Starting point is 00:40:08 explaining that it came up with the burger in 1954 when a customer asked for two hamburger patties with a slice of cheese in the middle. And as legend has it, the customer took a bite and exclaimed, that's one Juicy Lucy. Wow. It's so funny.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Like back in the day, you hear about all these things Being invented Because there's one guy Who's like Yeah you got nothing On the menu that appeals to me Can I get two fucking patties And just cook some shit
Starting point is 00:40:31 In the middle of them Put it on a bun Like every food Is invented that way It's like some Annoying customer Who doesn't like Anything on the menu
Starting point is 00:40:39 Yeah or they've run out Of an ingredient or something You hear of those sometimes Oh yeah We were meant to make The salad with this kind of cheese Oh yeah I heard that's how nachos were invented They just ran out of tortillas or whatever You know for wraps and went
Starting point is 00:40:52 Oh why don't we just use these sort of chippies Yeah And you know it's a genius Genius is 1% inspiration 99% chippies Chippies Yeah So apparently the reason they lost the I and they now spell juicy wrong was because the original sign had a typo and they never got another sign made.
Starting point is 00:41:13 So, they just rolled with it. And Matt offers a warning saying, remember, if it's spelled correctly, you might just be eating a shameless ripoff. Oh, wow. So, they say the incorrect spelling is how you know it's it's right the juicy lucy origin story from five eight club is a little murkier apparently there's just a bit on their website that has a blue ribbon that says first on it and it says the juicy lucy a homegrown hero so it feels like they weren't really even they're not out there claiming it that yeah they're just saying it's from this area yeah so of. So, but apparently they will.
Starting point is 00:41:45 Maybe that's just trying to avoid court. They're very litigious over there, I've heard. Yeah, they love to sue the piss off people. All right, here is question number five. In 2015, a student journalist for the University of Oklahoma's newspaper leaked what Jack White-related secret? His tour manager's top secret guacamole recipe? He hasn't brushed his teeth since he was 20. Where Jack White gets his hair dyed jet black.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Jack White had voted Republican in the last three elections. Or he only eats from the four basic food groups as set out by Paulie Shore and Encino Man. Milk duds, dairy group. Sweet tarts, fruit group. Burritos, dairy group. Sweet tarts, fruit group. Burritos, meat group. And corn nuts for vegetable group. And of course, he always washes it down by wheezing the juice. Wow, I love that.
Starting point is 00:42:34 I love Paulie Shaw style humor. And maybe Jack Watts arrived age where he thinks that's funny to say. Maybe. So you've got the secret guacamole recipe. And maybe Jack White's the right age where he thinks that's funny to say Maybe So you've got The secret guacamole recipe Hasn't brushed his teeth Where he gets his hair dyed That he voted Republican
Starting point is 00:42:53 Or he is on the Paulie Shaw diet I think I'm either going most rock and roll Or least rock and roll And I would say least rock and roll, probably voting Republican, because that would be really shitty to find that out. But I'm all- Wait, why would that be shitty?
Starting point is 00:43:14 You know, about 50% of my audience is Republican. That can't be true. Well, sucked in, dude. I think it just sounds incredibly un-rock and roll So maybe that's it But I'm also thinking What's the most rock and roll then? Honestly, the most rock and roll
Starting point is 00:43:32 Probably not brushing your teeth Is your 20 He's an odd guy, isn't he? Republicans, big teeth brushes That's the one thing I agree with the most Dental care But no dental plan I'm gonna go
Starting point is 00:43:47 He doesn't brush his teeth Because maybe he does some weird thing Where he's like Oh yeah I have some new technology that I use Or I use a mouthwash that does it Or someone else brushes his teeth Yeah
Starting point is 00:44:00 That's the technicality Someone else brushes them And I've heard that Brad Pitt reeks I've heard he Brad Pitt reeks. I've heard he stinks because he doesn't, like, use deodorant or something. Like, they're all weird. You never say stinks or reeks when you're saying beautifully. No.
Starting point is 00:44:18 Oh, he reeks heavenly to me. He reeks of heaven and grapefruit. Pungent odour. In a good way Alright He don't brush He don't brush He don't brush And the other
Starting point is 00:44:28 Republican Dyes hair black Guacamole recipe It's pretty funny Or Encino man dye Oh okay Okay
Starting point is 00:44:35 I mean Maybe he does But do you have to go To the same person To dye your hair But like he'd be on tour All the time Surely anyone can
Starting point is 00:44:42 Black It's just The same everywhere Isn't it Well in his defence I. It's just the same everywhere, isn't it? Well, in his defense, I have been going to the same hairdresser since I was 15 years old. And I never will go to anyone else. Wow. What's his name or their name? Their name is Angie.
Starting point is 00:44:56 Shout out to Angie. One of my favorite people. Love you, Angie. I go to her garage in Croydon Park and she slips my hair. That's turned me into thinking black hair. You're right. People do pick someone and he's like a pretty eccentric kind of guy. And I know that, you know, maybe he's on tour.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Maybe he charts a flight back to his hometown, gets the hair dye, continues on the tour. All right. Locking that in for Dave. Here's who wrote the answers. The Pauly Shore Diet. That was the house. Wonderful workhouse. Voting Republican. That was the house. Wonderful workhouse.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Voting Republican. That was Alexi. Yeah, I was being quite nasty. I was trying to joke you into a direction there. Wow. I don't know how I can trust you ever again. Yes, I'm wily. I'm wily as.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Well, wily Alexi. You fell for Dave's. Yeah, it looks like you outwired yourself, my friend. I slithered down the wrong hole today. He hasn't brushed his teeth since he was 20. It was Dave Warnicke. I thought it sounded like he would do some sort of weird new age thing for sure. Yeah, you got me. Dave is on the board.
Starting point is 00:45:55 That's your first point, Dave. Yes! Tell me I can double my score now. Come on. You can, but you didn't. Oh, no. You picked the one written by Simon, a.k.a. The House. I mean, the correct answer is The Leak was his tour manager's top secret guacamole recipe.
Starting point is 00:46:13 That's wild. Wow. So, score update. After five rounds, we've got Dave on one point, The House on four points, but out in front on five points, it's Alexi. Wow. Wow, on four points. But out in front on five points, it's Alexi. Wow. Wow, wow, wow. This feels electrifying to be me right now.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Can we also say Simon is on the same score as me as well? I chose his answer. He's on one. Yeah. Well, if you treat it that way, then quite a few people are on equal to you. Damn it. But they've got no chance to score anymore. That's true. So, hopefully hopefully If I can get one more point
Starting point is 00:46:46 I will have beaten Betsy's also on the board Because of Bahama Brahma Bahama Brahma And Susie's on Because of the handheld alligator So Of course
Starting point is 00:46:57 What's her name Scottsdale Suze Sacramento Suze Sacramento Suze So we're at two questions Left here Here's question number six This one comes from Jim Bates from Sackett's Harbour in New York Sacramento Suits. Sacramento Suits. So, we're at two questions left here. Here's question number six. This one comes from Jim Bates from Sackett's Harbor in New York.
Starting point is 00:47:09 Oh, Jim Bates. He's probably, I think he's the most read out question writer. He's prolific in the question. He just writes great questions. And Jim's question this time is, what happened between March 10 and March 21, 2021 in Taiwan? Something happened there. Obviously, something noteworthy enough to make news. and March 21, 2021 in Taiwan. Something happened there. Obviously, something noteworthy enough to make news.
Starting point is 00:47:30 What happened between March 10 and March 21, 11-day period in 2021 in Taiwan? While you're writing those answers, let me tell you more about Jack White's leak. According to Vulture, a student journalist for the University of Oklahoma's newspaper leaked White's concert rider and his tour manager's guacamole recipe went viral, as well as White's perceived hatred of bananas. Many fans and detractors used it as more evidence that he's a demanding prima donna.
Starting point is 00:47:56 In an open letter titled, For God's Sakes, White lashed out at all the sites covering this story, pointing out that the rider exists to take care of his crew, venue workers and guests. Quote, what you're looking for is someone throwing a tantrum because they didn't get their brown M&Ms. Sorry to disappoint, he wrote. Can I go back to making music now? No. Okay. Crochet it is.
Starting point is 00:48:18 That does now kind of sound like a tantrum joke. All right. Answers are in for question number six, our penultimate question. Wow. Does that mean second last? Is that right? It does. And I think finding that out when you hear the word penultimate and then later you find
Starting point is 00:48:32 out that it means second last, not most ultimate. Yeah. Is a really key part in becoming a grown up. I agree. I think I remember, you know, making that journey and it was my penultimate time using it incorrectly. I used it one more time just to test the waters. One last slip up.
Starting point is 00:48:54 All right. Here's question six. What happened between March 10 and March 21, 2021 in Taiwan? Keanu Reeves was there on holiday. The excitement caused incredible traffic delays the star spotters swamped the sweeps swamped the streets trying to get pictures a limited edition bts sneaker led to riots when supplies ran out hundreds of people legally changed their name to salmon a man broke the record for longest ice skating session,
Starting point is 00:49:26 or the Taiwanese parliament was officially suspended as a cool-down period after daily fistfights had broken out on the floor of the legislature every day for a week. Wowza, wowza. Wow. So, one of the... There were two that were quite close together, and I thought they were one at first, but they're not. So, Keanu Reeves and BTS
Starting point is 00:49:45 Both Those two No No it was the Salmon one Oh the Salmon one So hundreds of people legally Changed their name to Salmon That was one
Starting point is 00:49:53 And then And then a man broke the record For longest ice skating session Wow And what was his name? Salmon Oh god Okay
Starting point is 00:50:02 I'll never know Because if he broke the longest Ice skating session And his name was Salmon I could, God. Okay. I'll never know. Because if he broke the longest ice skating session and his name was Salmon, I could understand why many people would want to change their name. To their new hero. Wow. Dave, I hand you the floor. Please begin to speak.
Starting point is 00:50:16 I'm sorry that it's me going first because I have no idea. Every now and then you do see like, you know, like world news. It's like, check out what's going on in Botswana's parliament or something in there. Isn't it funny that you think it's an overseas parliament? Exactly. They get up to pretty wacky things overseas. That's all they do. I'll be honest.
Starting point is 00:50:33 That's the one that's captured my attention for the same reasons as well. Yeah. And it also feels like date based. I'm like, why are people changing their name to Salmon for an 11 day period? Unless it's like for some sort of festival or something. And Keanu's there. Maybe they just got that Salmon dance song for the Chemical Brothers. Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:51 Great song. Okay. I'm thinking Parliament. I'm thinking Parliament. With apologies to any Taiwanese listeners if this is not how your Parliament behaves. All right. Locking that in for Dave. I was also thinking parliament, but now that Dave has put it in my mind
Starting point is 00:51:07 that it might be a rude thing to choose, I'm now also grappling that maybe I should pick something else. Aye, aye, aye. It's the period, though, that 10-day period or whatever. It makes so much sense that that's like a build-up of things but then also if you're a politician you're going into work to get your ass beat every day after it's happened like honestly day one you're like okay fuck that'll never happen again you come day two and you get smacked in the head again day three are you going back all right back again i might just go something else instead i'm gonna go to bts seems like a long
Starting point is 00:51:48 time 10 days is too long for that to happen that's what i thought too i am gonna go salmon oh shit i know that's wrong but i'm gonna look in salmon there's no way i also want it to be right though come on all right let's go through who wrote the answers.

Starting point is 00:54:53 Yes Ultimate love it The ultimate question And this one comes from Someone you both know Cameron James Cameron James As I live and breathe
Starting point is 00:55:02 My partner Ready to betray me I'm sure So I messaged Because I get very nervous when you're on Alexi Trying to figure out a movie that you might not have heard of So I messaged Cam and I said I've got Alexi coming on the show Any suggestions for a movie he wouldn't have heard of And he said God that's a tough one lol
Starting point is 00:55:19 But he gave me three options and I picked one of those Are you ready? Wow gosh I hope so So But he gave me three options and I picked one of those. Are you ready? Gosh, I hope so. So. He does know my knowledge very well, so he might have helped you out. Fantastic. The question is, what is the synopsis of the 1970 film The Travelling Executioner?
Starting point is 00:55:40 Imagine if I'd seen it. I've never heard of it. So, he's done well. He's done it. What is the synopsis of the 1970 film the traveling executioner while your answers are being written here's some more info about the salmon incident this is according to Jim these people wanted to take advantage of a sushi chain promotion that offered free sushis to guests whose names included the word salmon. This phenomenon was dubbed the salmon chaos. According to the BBC, officials have issued a plea asking people to stop visiting government offices to request the name change. The restaurant offered an all-you-can-eat sushi meal to anyone with the name
Starting point is 00:56:17 salmon on their ID card. Unimpressed officials said the rush was wasting government time. The offer began when sushi restaurant chain Akindo Sushiro said anyone with the Chinese characters in their name could get free food for themselves and five friends. It led to many people, I said dozens, but I've heard hundreds as well, led to dozens or hundreds of people requesting a name change. The Taipei Times reported adding that applicants pay around $3 for a new ID card and registration certificate. One student said she had changed her name to Kew Salmon Rice Bowl,
Starting point is 00:56:53 but planned to change it back the next day. Other salmon-themed names included Salmon Prince, Meteor Salmon King, and Salmon Fried Rice, according to AFP news agency. Two others managed to eat around $460 worth of sushi in one go and posted online, quote, I do not think we will want to eat salmon again for a while. They have since tightened up the rules
Starting point is 00:57:14 so names can only be changed for more genuine reasons, though I don't know if you'll find a more genuine reason than free sushi. Does that make sense to you? I know you're busy writing your answers but it was for free food basically yeah i mean did you some of the names that they came up with were pretty fun i thought salmon prince i i worship the salmon prince salmon fried rice but my favorite meteor salmon king meteor Meteor Amazing Alright your answers are in So here is the final question
Starting point is 00:57:47 Oh and I should say This is worth Triple points Hell yeah Godfather So it truly is still Anyone's game I still have a chance

Starting point is 00:58:17 Oh, a 1988 Suzuki Swift. All right. Here's the final question. What is the synopsis of the 1970 film The Travelling Executioner? Right, here's the final question. What is the synopsis of the 1970 film The Travelling Executioner? An emotionless man travels around the United States, letting workers for a large conglomerate know that they are no longer required.
Starting point is 00:58:37 His whole world view is turned upside down when he is asked to fire his long-lost daughter. That's option one. Option two. Stacey Keech is electrifying as Jonas Kandide, an ex-carnie who in 1918 travels around the Bayou executing people. At $100 a head, he renders his services with love and care until he is seduced by a woman marked for his portable electric chair. That's option two. Okay. Option three.
Starting point is 00:58:57 Jessica King wants nothing more than a simple life. But when, due to a mix-up, a time-travelling hitman has her name on his list, she must prove she isn't the one responsible for muddling up the space-time continuum and she better do it fast that's option three option four in medieval europe gustav is the last of the executioners a group of anonymous men that perform sanctioned beheadings gustav finds light in his dark existence by playing the lute and enchanting maidens as he stoically travels across countries lopping off heads at the king's behest well finally don waddle is the

Wow. Don Waddle. Don Waddle. Some of the names are great. Stacey Keach.
Starting point is 00:59:53 Yes. Stacey Keach. Wow. Okay. I'm playing a different game here now, Dave, because I'm trying to think what Cameron thinks my movie knowledge doesn't have. Ah, yes. So, I'm thinking a different game.
Starting point is 01:00:09 Did Cameron write one of the answers? No, he didn't write. I wrote both the house options. Okay. That makes it more difficult. Because Stacey Keech is an actor that I love, and I feel like that might have been Cameron putting a Stacey Keech in there to entice me over. I don't think I've putting a Stacey Keech in there to entice me over now I
Starting point is 01:00:26 Don't think I've heard of Stacey Keech Wow Stacey Keech is a lovely actor I Love Stacey Keech he's in a movie called Fat City well I don't know Cameron he Knows I like American stuff so maybe it's A European maybe European shit is what He's going to pick me off because I Eric my all my areas of expertise I would say is 1970s

Then you had Gustav in medieval Europe, the last of a group of anonymous men performing sanctioned beheadings. Sanctioned beheadings. He played the loot. Then we had Don Waddle, aka the travelling executioner, who's predicted to go number one in the upcoming NFL draft. Wow.

Starting point is 01:06:53 He didn't love it. But it hasn't been, there's not a lot of reviews out there for it. Not enough for the Rotten Tomatoes to give it a splat or not.
