Speaker 1 (00:07):
This podcast. Can we start the episode now.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
In the last one?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Yeah, Randall, we've been rolling for five minutes.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
In that case, Welcome to Meet Eater Trivia, the only
game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Randall Williams.
Today we're joined by Spencer, Yiannis, Brody, cal Tresa, Alyssa
and Hansey. This is a ten round quiz show with
question I thought we were doing a new.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Fingers slipped on the light control here continue.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Gotta put that epilepsy warning on the top of it.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
This is a ten round quiz show with questions for
meat eaters four verticals which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking.
There is a prize. Meat eater will donate five hundred
dollars to the conservation organization of the winners choosing. Now
for the stat of the week. This week, we're looking
at player performance from previous episodes I've hosted. The average
(01:08):
player score in those rounds was a four point eight,
with the average winning score being an eight. That means
Randall hosted episodes are slightly easier than Yannis hosted episodes.
That's right, which is good because Janni's first two episodes
were incredibly difficult, to the point that they weren't very
fun to play.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
Oh wow, and no cooking questions.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
I just feel like the way this is written, Spencer,
the way you wrote this made it sound like my
episodes are bad.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
No, no, I.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Think it should say that means randall hosted episodes are
just right.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
Okay, there you go, They're just right.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Goldiete.
Speaker 6 (01:45):
Yeah, are you gonna have all four verticals this time?
Because Jannis barely.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Yes, and I'm going to introduce a new vertical today.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Actually, okay, good.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Now for the I FAQ here's our Infrequently Asked Question segment.
If you have a trivia related question for our crew,
send it to Trivia at the Meat Eater dot com
with the subject line I FAQ. This one comes from
Spencer Newhart says, what does it mean to be a
randomal Now?
Speaker 5 (02:14):
Yanni thinks I'm always planning these questions, but here planting
a question. Yanna, So what is a randomal Well?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
I asked Phil to contemplate this. I was going to
reach out to the community. We're all in touch on Instagram. Uh, Phil,
did you do you have an answer for us?
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Sure, this is this is the first thing I wrote
up here, I said, a randomal is an alpha who
lives life not for the destination or the journey, for
the complete but for the competition and hot dogs you
crush along the way. Is also keen enough to distinguish
that from the journey.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Okay, that's good, that's good.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
I wrote a few notes. I said, they don't take
themselves too seriously, but they don't like funny business when
it comes to trivia. But I said, randamals likes spelling
things correctly. It's another point of emphasis for us. But
I think they come from all walks of life. I
think regionally speaking, most of them live within one hundred
to one hundred and fifty miles of the Ohio River. Yeah,
(03:17):
just people who like case meat, professional basketball. There are
a lot of a lot of folks up out there
who like guns, like weird information about guns.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
So now we know there were people previously who didn't
consider themselves randomals. Now that they just heard themselves described, it's.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
A growing moment. It's a real tribe. Yeah, we've had
I've actually be.
Speaker 7 (03:38):
Honest, do you have something well so happy that you say,
but you reminded me that randomals love case meat? You
remember last week I mentioned that I hung out with
Eli Cairo from Olympia Provisions. He sent me a box
of meat. There's a lot of case meat in it.
They make a product called that. I don't know if
I'm gonna pronounce this properly, Hans he might be to
(04:00):
be able to help me. But it's uh cossack kriner
like k A with the umlau s e k r
a I n e r. It's basically this lovely like
very multified frankfurter thing. But it has Swiss cheese dotted
in it. Not some high temp bullshit, the real deal.
I'm telling you, set you free, buddy. I'm going to
(04:20):
bring you a package. Yeah, let's do that.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Why is Hansei a subject matter expert on that?
Speaker 7 (04:25):
Just pronunciation.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
O German derschermier Desmyer. Sorry, everyone loves to put the
the rx R in there. That's okay, Alan, probably did
you dirty?
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Yeah, I will note that. Actually random's I found Alan Dershowitz.
That's the only Sorry, that's the stuff that rand look
for right there.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
But it's actually a real flavor.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
It's it's a real thing. Random is a term I
found out that refers to it's a It's an abbreviation
of random animal and when people are messing around with
AI to generate strange creatures. Apparently, randomal is a term
that they used to describe, like they'll tell AI to
make up like a tiger with scale.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
I thought it was just a category of people you
came up with that.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Yeah, I kind of started getting that the more he's
like you it's a real thing, because I keep saying that.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Over id an escape room this weekend and AI generated
randomles were a part of the escape room.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Really, WHOA Did you know that they were randomals at
the time.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
No, I just learned this right now.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I learned that this morning.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Did you escape, Phill We escaped?
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Yes, I bet you escape room.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
I mean, I've got a one thousand average batting average
on escape rooms.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Are you like a team leader when that's happening.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Uh, it's it's a competition between me and my wife
Adrian about who's the leader.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I just that you guys, you were taking the kids
to an escape.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Oh yeah, we shoved them aside and did it just panic.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Inn escape rooms? I don't like it now for some housekeeping.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
That's the difference between a randomal and a philistine.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
This one is for the Randamals out there now for
some housekeeping. On episode six fifteen, I asked a question
about the fastest commercially produced rifle cartridge in the world,
the two twenty Swift. It was a tiebreaker question. In
the flavor text, I said the following a prototype quote.
A prototype was developed in nineteen thirty four by a
man named Grosvenora Watkins, who necked down the twenty five
(06:28):
three thousand Savage. Many many people have written in to
claim that I'm wrong in this assertion, instead claiming that
the two twenty Swift is based on the six millimeter
Lee Navy, and in fact, I'd like to let you
know that both of us are correct. The version that
was produced by Winchester for the commercial market was based
on the six milimeter Lee Navy. And this comes from
(06:50):
an article published by Paul Box on Accurate shooter dot com,
which is a tremendous website. The carts were introduced by
Winchester in nineteen thirty five for their Model fit fifty
four rifle. A year later, it was added as a
standard cartridge in the Model seventy. And here's where it
gets interesting. What might not be common knowledge to some
reloaders is that the prototype for the Swift was developed
(07:11):
in nineteen thirty four to thirty five by Gross Venora
Watkins by necking down the two fifty Savage case, but
in the end Winchester chose the six milimeter Lee Navy.
So I actually had more information about the development of
this cartridge included in my flavor text, but I rushed
through my reading after a particularly contentious game of trivia. Yeah,
if you'll recall, Steve and cow were particularly upset about
(07:35):
the confusing title of the film Lake Placid, so I
rushed through what I had prepared just to end that episode.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
Good recall.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
So for you careful listening cartridge offiicionados out there, I
apologize for my hasty summary.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
I like those people.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
No, they're gonna get you. Oh, they will get you.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
I like some housekeeping that's like six months old like that. Yeah, yeah,
good throwback. I mean we're still getting emails about it.
That's right now.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
The Sydney Index for today's episode is a three, meaning
that our winner should get six correct answers. But I
think we can do better than that. Gang, And now
we're on to our game of trivia, Phil please play
the drop.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Please note that people write in with that that I
don't say.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Please shout, I try filling throats.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Question one. This is our multiple choice question in the
category of public lands. What river is the only major
river system entirely contained within the state of Nevada and
shares its name with the largest national forest outside of Alaska.
Your options are A Elco be Humboldt, see Reno four,
(09:01):
winn Amucca, and I'll read this once again for those
out there playing it along. What river is the only
major river system entirely contained within the state of Nevada
and shares its name with the largest national forest outside
of Alaska? We have an answer from Brody Let's folks
(09:23):
still chew it on this one. You honest is writing something,
cal Cal's contemplating Spencer's writing. Guys want to Guy's got
any thoughts, any chit chat about this quest? Question?
Speaker 5 (09:36):
I don't know it, but I like this one.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
I think I do.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Oh oh, Hanse, I thought you hadn't written something, but
you have a double yeah. I've never realized how confusing
that might be for a host.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Lived in Nevada for a minute, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Well, I worked in Nevada, but I lived in Trucky.
Speaker 6 (09:54):
So this this river starts and terminates in the state
of Nevada river system.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yes, well it Brodie's correct. If you'll recall Nevada is
part of the Great Basin.
Speaker 5 (10:11):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
It's interesting that you can give us a tip within
the question and it's still not a gimme.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
I liked this question, I do.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
I do say it was.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
It was a last minute. It was a last minute.
I actually I was fact checking one of my questions earlier,
and I thought it was too tricky to make a
hard determination one way or the other. So I came
up with this one and then decided it was too hard,
made it multiple choice, and removed a clue as to
a number of letters in the answer. And I didn't
screw that up like I did when my first question
(10:49):
was gallery for you.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Did you follow that?
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Yeah, I just quite paying.
Speaker 6 (10:54):
That's what I meant.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Oh, sourpus cat, it was pretty pleasant.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
I was still happy.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Do we all have answers? Why don't we flip them over?
Gang Yannas says Humboldt, cal says Alco, Alyssa says Alco.
Trissa says Humboldt. Spencer says Winnemucca. Hondi says Humboldt. Brody
says Humboldt. We have a handful of correct answers in
the room. It's the Humboldt River. The Humboldt River originates
(11:30):
in the Ruby Mountains of northeastern Nevada and flows westward
for approximately three hundred miles before ending in the Humboldt Sink.
It was an important water source for emigrants traveling in
the California Trail during the nineteenth century. This river shares
its name with the Humboldt Taiabi National Forest, which spans
over six million acres across Nevada in eastern California. Both
(11:50):
the river and the forest were named after Alexander von Humboldt,
a Prussian nationalist and explorer who also has named after
him a squid, a penguin, a glacier, a peak, and
an ocean current. That is a hell of a collection. Yeah,
across the gambit there's a wonderful book called The Humboldt Current,
and it's a history of Alexander von Humboldt's life and
(12:12):
his influence on natural thinking.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Huh good for him.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Yeah, jealous, I learned something good, Randalls.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
You've already crushed my host thing from the last episode.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
One question is just very different styles.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
You haven't heard question two.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
I'm excited.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Question two comes to us in the category of cooking.
What dish created by an American physician to combat malnutrition
during the Civil War consists of ground beef mixed with seasonings,
formed into a patty and is typically served with gravy.
I'll read that once again. We're looking for a dish
(12:52):
that was created by an American physician to combat malnutrition
during the Civil War, and it consists of ground beef
mixed with seasonings, formed into a patty and is typically
served with gravy.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Oh listen, I literally just watched in real time inspiration strike.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You ever you ever make one of these?
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Cow based off of that? Yes, some version of that.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Do you know the answer?
Speaker 5 (13:29):
I have an answer Now that you said one of these, though,
that changes my answer.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
I think, well, have you ever made this?
Speaker 5 (13:38):
Right, but you wouldn't say, like, have you ever made
one of these? And the answer with spaghetti, So yeah,
that's true.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
You go down on Main Street, right, you go to
the Cowboy Cafe down there, or the Western Cafe every
single day on the special board, you're gonna see Hamburger
steak for breakfast?
Speaker 5 (13:58):
Uh huh?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Would you like that?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
With gravy? Like, I mean, what are you doing?
Speaker 7 (14:07):
He's already cutting down your question before you've given the answer.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Does anybody else have an answer.
Speaker 7 (14:17):
With what my gut? With what my gut's saying?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Does anybody?
Speaker 5 (14:21):
I mean, damn, I saw Cow's board. I can't write that.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
What are you doing to my game?
Speaker 4 (14:29):
I'm a people pleaser.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
Fine, as long as you don't change your answer.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
The double sided whiteboards are getting a really spencer's Spencer's
writing here, All right, let's flip them over. Gang chuck stick,
Cal says Salisbury steak, says cube steaks, says burger, I
like Spencer's. Spencer says sword on a shingle, But that's
(15:01):
chip beef. Hansi says chip beef like with toast s
word on a shingle, and Brody says salisbury steak. The
correct answer is Salisbury steak or Hamburger steak steak.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
I well, well, gravy on top, like take.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Your guns, randall, Phil, do you want to do a
quick fact check?
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Okay? But but chuck and cube steak are there. That
has nothing to do with the with the preparation right
of putting gravy on it is far.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
No, you can you can deep fat fry a cube
steak and then you got chicken fried steak.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Cube steak is mechanically tenderized cuff of This is what
AI says. It says, it's not the same thing.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
What about chuck.
Speaker 6 (15:50):
Chuck's just a steak from the chuck, ain't it.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Yeah, yeah, no, they're not the same. AI says once again, Yeah,
chuck steak is just a cut of beef from the shoulder.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
You use cube steak to make chicken fried steak, or
you can use it to make Salisbury.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Made now. The Salisbury steak was created by doctor James
Henry Salisbury. Oftentimes people think it's named after Salisbury, England,
but Salisbury was an American physician who developed it during
the Civil War as a remedy for soldiers suffering from
chronic diarrhea and other ailments. Huh, doctor Salisbury, Because when
I'm suffering from crime diarrhea, the first thing I do
(16:29):
is patty with gravy. I believe that vegetables and starchy
foods produced toxins in the digestive system and advocated for
a meat centered diet. He referred to the ground beef
patties as quote a muscle pulp of beef and advocated
for a meat based Diari said that, and he suggested
that it should be eaten three times a day. Whoa,
(16:51):
yea the.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
First paleo trust your doctors.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
But like s O s is like a military food staple.
Speaker 8 (16:59):
Yeah, they got like a navy You may have said
this was, Yeah, Sualisbury steak and Swiss steak always kind
of go I feel like interchangeably to me too.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I feel like Swiss steak is like I feel like
Salisbury steak is typically with like a brown gravy, where
Swiss steak is more of like a white.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
But then like enter schnitzel.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Yeah, I mean and hamburger hamburger steak.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Really, is this going on long enough?
Speaker 1 (17:32):
I feel like we're on time right now.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
We're doing great.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
World War One, the anti German sentiment led to a
lot of people abandoning the term hamburger steak. So question
three this is in the category of America. This question
comes to us from Justin Faye of Cincinnati, Ohio. He
knows how to get me to read his question, In
(17:56):
what state do you find the northwest angle the northernmost
in the lower forty eight? In what state do you
find the northwest angle which is the northernmost spot in
the lower forty eight?
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Randall is someone who doesn't care about the NBA or,
with all due respect, the state of Ohio. Can I
still be considered a randomal?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Of course, Okay, thank you.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
That's the thing is, people from all walks of life
are joining the movement. It could be it could be
you like movies. I mean, there's a lot of people
that just enjoy movies.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
It's very it's very inclusive. But aren't you afraid that
if you kind of expand the parameters too far, then
it doesn't make it special or.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Not at all?
Speaker 4 (18:41):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Okay, No, I mean I think there's obviously certain types
of people that could never be randomals.
Speaker 5 (18:47):
Like a racist?
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Yeah exactly, you heard it first, No racist aloud A.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Moment, And I feel like you have to be you
can't be in curious, you know. I feel like I
feel like you just have to be open to the world.
Speaker 5 (19:04):
What about can you be Canadian?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Absolutely?
Speaker 5 (19:08):
Can you be a woman?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Absolutely?
Speaker 5 (19:10):
Okay? Is your wife a randomal?
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Not really?
Speaker 3 (19:14):
I think she's a horrific racist.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
No, she said to me the other day, she said,
I'm the original random one. Oh is that sweet? Did
that really happen? Leave that up to the viewers at home.
I see we all have answers. Why don't we flip
them over? Gang Giannis is Maine, cal says Washington, Alyssa's Maine,
(19:43):
Tresis's Maine, Spencer Minnesota, Hansi Minnesota, Brody Maine. We have
a correct answer in the room. It's Minnesota. This unique
creature is actually separated from the rest of Minnesota by
Lake of the Woods, and you can only reach it
(20:03):
by boat or by traveling through Canada. The Northwest Angle
extends into Canadian territory and as the result of a
surveying error during border negotiations between the United States and
Great Britain in the late eighteenth century. I don't think
that's correct. It's early nineteenth century. The Northwest Angle reaches
to about forty nine degrees twenty three minutes north latitude,
(20:24):
making it the only part of the contiguous United States
that extends north of the forty ninth parallel.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Good for us. Glad we got that.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yeah. Interestingly enough, when we were working on the when
we were working on the landlocked report for tierracpian Onyx,
the algorithm flagged all of that as inaccessible landlocked public
lands because you couldn't get there by the road system.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
Well, as soon as Canada becomes the fifty first state,
that line's going to move on.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Let's not get into politics on this episode of the program.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Brody, shouldn't it be called the North Central Angle?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Depends what you're talking about it being in relation.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
To well, yeah, exactly context, Come on northwest of.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
What question four fishing, Paul, What turquoise Blue River, which
the Alaska Department of Fishing Game calls quote the most
heavily fished river in the forty nine state, produced the
world record angler caught king salmon in nineteen eighty five. Again,
(21:29):
we're looking for a turquoise Blue river that Alaska Department
of Fishing Game calls the most heavily fished river in
the state, and it produced the world record angler caught
king salmon in nineteen eighty five. Had quick answers from Brody.
From Yannis Hansi's writing, Cal is in a deep meditative state.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Oh, I fished the damn thing and I can't remember that.
You sure?
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Where were you?
Speaker 4 (22:01):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
I'm just trying to stir up some put yourself back
in your waiting boots for a moment.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
This is.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
This river, Turquoise Blue, the most heavily fished river in Alaska,
and it produced the world record angler caught king salmon
in nineteen eighty five.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Got an answer, you honest, I do.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Have you been there, Yannie?
Speaker 1 (22:30):
I have Spencer's got an answer, PONSI got an answer. Oh,
I see you've added a star to I'm trying.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
I'm trying to help you.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Yeah, I think that give you. That does help? Thank you, Yeah,
it DOESNA say, trust probably has an answer on this one.
Speaker 7 (22:45):
I've got a great little story, oh, Melissa about the
the Old River.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Oh, this is brutal.
Speaker 5 (22:58):
Randall was actually gonna throw it to you for the
flavor text.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
I can, Yeah, why don't I do that? I don't
have much to add, I was gonna, yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Oh, I got some flavor text for you.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Good. Oh this is lovely.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
From my angling day.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Cal's got a mark or to a whiteboard here, always
tapping it.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Yeah, yeah, writing.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
I think you can just write in front of everyone.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Now, Oh you're just messing.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Yeah, yeah, I'm just burning through mark like they're free ramble.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
We're going to cut back on the swearing. When I
was looking for when I was looking for listener questions,
I came across an email asking us not to swear
so that the children can listen. And I think that's
a fair point.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
Let's curb their growth by keeping them insulated from the
real world good parenting.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I'm a guilty party myself, So you know, cal, are
we gonna get there? Are we gonna.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
There's only a few rivers in Alaska?
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Just go, just go.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
It's honest.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Ke Jewel just says Coutiny, Spencer says Mackenzie, Hansi says Yukon,
and Brodie says Keen.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
I wait was a wedding calsa.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
The correct answer is the keen.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
This record break, Yeah, I wrote nothing, Phil, thanks.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Yeah uh. This record breaking king salmon was caught by
angler Les Anderson. It weighed ninety seven pounds four ounces
and that's forty four point one kilograms for our international friends.
The Kenai River is famous for its distinctive blue color,
which comes from glacial silt and for its exceptional salmon runs.
It's located on the Keenai Peninsula, and Yannis has something
(25:01):
to add.
Speaker 7 (25:03):
We spent almost a year living in Fairbanks, and my
in laws flew over to explore a little bit of Alaska.
We did a trip down onto the Kenai Peninsula, did
some backpacking, fished the Anchor River a little bit, and
just sort of as a stopover, we said, oh, we'll
rent a little cabin on the Keni.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
We relax a.
Speaker 7 (25:25):
Little bit, take showers after you know, our adventures, and
then get up to the anchorage and get a flight out. Well,
we get there and the dude that owns the cabin
lives right next door. And when we get there, he's like, hey,
you guys like to fish. And my brother and I.
Speaker 4 (25:40):
Are like, what else do we do in life?
Speaker 2 (25:42):
You know?
Speaker 7 (25:43):
And he's like, well, the soak are just screaming right now.
Come on, I've got rods and everything we need. And
we're like oh, and we literally didn't even take gear
into the cabin. We walk with this fella down to
the river. The next thing I know, it's two o'clock
in the morning and we've got a cooler full. My
brother in law quit fishing. I was snagging and just
(26:03):
throwing him to him. He was fullying them and just
putting him into the cooler. And by I think we
went to bat somewhere between three and four o'clock in
the morning. It was a great fishing experience. So no rest, no, no.
I might have got a quick shower, but it was
quite fun.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (26:19):
There are many people who feel that this record king
salmon record world record will fall to a fisher, to
a to a non native king salmon fishery in South
America right now.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
Really interesting.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Interesting, yep.
Speaker 6 (26:36):
You may have seen videos of like these eighty pounders
that are being caught down there. They think the next
world records coming from down there.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Trusty, you were very close, but you had It's artificial.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
It's artificial.
Speaker 6 (26:49):
I think like probably derived from maybe from farming or
just introduced fish.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
And I think I could be wrong on this.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
I think those fish are coming out of the Atlantic Ocean,
not the Pacific.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
Interesting question five.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
This question is in the category of gear or maritime freight.
What is the busiest port on the Great Lakes which
shares its name with a square roll top backpack designed
to fit in the bottom of canoes? What is the
busiest port on the Great Lakes which shares its name
(27:28):
with a square roll top backpack designed to fit in
the bottom of canoes? Stumper Randall, anybody do some, if
only some, backcountry canoe trips, real staple of the north Woods.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
What the hell are those things?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Just think about your start going through your your Great
Lakes ports, your major ports. That's a hint.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
I study those all the time.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
I just threw that in because I thought it was
a fun tidbit. The question is actually about the packs.
Spencer's writing, HANSI, do you have an answer? Yeah, yeah,
I'm not confident about it, But Spencer's got an answer.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
Not confident either. I don't know if this is a
point many canoe trip h It's might be a zero percenter.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I don't think so. I think someone's got it.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
In them all these Great Lakes boys in here.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Yeah, canoe packs, they fit right in the bottom of
your canoe or all square well roll tops.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
Hm.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
And I'll read this again because I'm not sure if
I read it again, What is the busiest port on
the Great Lakes which shares its name with a square
roll top backpack designed to fit in the bottom of canoes.
There's some listeners right now.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Oh, just jumping out of their pants.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yeah, losing it.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
They would portage their way here and deliver the message
if they could. Do you have an answer, Cal, It's
the wrong answer, you know. It's like this goot, like
we can't tell you how far it is. We have
to tell you how far. And Rods that technic culture,
you know, well is it a mile? Like, well, it's
(29:34):
sixteen rods just drag me insane.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Oh, Brody suffering are waiting on me.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
No, I think Cal and Brody.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
I can just.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Haven they ain't got it.
Speaker 7 (29:54):
Well, I'm gonna I'm gonna write something down.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Once you three go flip them over.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Gang Giannis says Detroit, Cal says Duluth, Melissa says Port. Dry,
Bag says Dry, Spencer says Marias Hansi says Port Huron,
and Brody says Milwaukee. We have a correct answer to
the room. The answer is du Luth. Dang Trading Company.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
To Dluth is on fire. I didn't think it was
a busy port.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
The Port of Duluth Superior located where Lake Superior meets
the Saint Louis River at the western tip of the
Great Lakes, handles more cargo by tonnage than any other
Great Lakes by tonnage. Yeah, it's everything iron ore, attack pellets,
Oh yeah, col grain and other.
Speaker 5 (30:55):
Like that.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
The Duluth Pack is a square roll top backpack or
bag originally designed to fit in the bottom of canoes.
It's a classic piece of outdoor equipment that dates back
to eighteen eighty two when it was created by Camille
Poier in Duluth, Minnesota. These packs are known for their
durability and become iconic and canoe camping in wilderness exploration,
(31:15):
particularly in the Boundary Waters region.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
There's a great, great restaurant next to the Duluth Pack
Company in Duluth that has its own like smokehouse for
Lake spear, whitefish.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Yeah, it's a killer and lake trout.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Oh man, well, gang, I thought we'd do better on that.
I'm glad it wasn't a zero percenter. We're now halfway
through our game of trivia, and that means it's time
for a scoreboard update from Phil the engineer.
Speaker 4 (31:43):
Oh my god, oh if hold on one second on Duluth. Yeah,
hey listeners, TBT. My cousin is going through med school.
She's in Duluth. She needs a job. Just talking.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
So if you own a hospital, well.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
I mean she just needs to make money. So bakery
just so happens. I mean, I was just talking to
my uncle about this. She needs a job, isn't it
isn't trampled by from Duluth. Yeah, I can get her
concert tickets.
Speaker 5 (32:15):
Also, Frank Lloyd Wright like one of the most famous
architects in the world. His only gas station, I think
is located.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
We need to move it along.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Spencer, I like better Phil up on this scoreboard.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
I'd love to LETSSA. You're on the board with zero points.
Tresa and Spencer have one point apiece. Johannest Cal and
HANSI are all tied up with two and the only
person that's lining up with the Sydney Index so far
is Brody Henderson. He has three points at halftime.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Interesting, gang not remember the KENI it's competitive here, it's
competitive game. I'm really excited for the second half. Question
six comes to us in the category of hunting. What
class hunting bullet first tested by John Nosler in nineteen
forty seven, gets its name from the internal structure that
(33:08):
divides its two lead cores. What classic hunting bullet, first
tested by John Nosler in nineteen forty seven, gets its
name from the internal structure that divides its two lead cores.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
Shot cup critters bullets still a great bullet?
Speaker 1 (33:32):
It is a great bullet, Cal, do you have an answer?
Speaker 4 (33:36):
I'll tell you. Guys said great bullet.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Don't besmirch John Nosler's legacy here, Cal, It's tried and true.
Speaker 7 (33:47):
I can, I think recount his story of what made
him the hull that made him want to let this bullet.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
I'll let you do the flavor text and then I'll
check it against my flavor text. Just a fun little
game of having other people do the the flavor text.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
Why I having a hard time with that? An having
annurinism or something.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
John Nosler would be a great name for like and
that would have been in a seventies and.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
John Nossler? How do you think he got a seed
money for the Bowler Company? Very money? M this is
a good kid's episode. What were you saying, Melissa.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
I don't know this one.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
I tried to I tried to get Sydney. I tried
to lead her into this one.
Speaker 7 (34:44):
I hope your son's not gonna say, Mom, this is
what I shot my giant bowl with.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
No, but it's not, oh, you know, no. But I'm
just thinking about how far away that bowl was.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Wouldn't have been a good Joe, wouldn't have.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
A good choice. Although they are at the front, half is.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Spencer is still right.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
Excuse me, I didn't mean to clear my throat into
the microphone.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Well, Steve really opened the damn on that one.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
In a New World.
Speaker 5 (35:18):
Game, Spencer, Yeah done.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Are we ready to flip over? Flip over? Gang? Youre honest?
Showed to me partition. Calus says partition. Alyssa no answer,
trusted the Nozzler. Spencer no answer. Hansi says nozzler, partition.
Brody says partition. The correct answer is partition.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (35:47):
I believe John Nozzleer was shooting at a mud caked
moose if I remember correctly, and was wailing away and
nothing was dying. And I can't remember if he recovered
that moose or not, but he came home and said,
I got to make something better.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Shot at seven times on a Mooselam in British Columbia
with a three hundred h and h mind you. The
partition gets its name from the unique internal copper partition
that separates the front and rear lead cores of the bullet.
This innovative design was revolutionary for hunting ammunition because it
allowed for controlled expansion while maintaining weight retention. The front
(36:26):
core is designed to expand upon impact for tissue damage,
while the partition prevents the bullet from breaking apart completely.
The rear core remains intact and ensures deep penetration and
energy transfer.
Speaker 4 (36:38):
I would take the acubond over the partition one thousand
percent of the time.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
I've killed a lot of stuff with acubonds. Killed my
first elk with a partition. I killed one of my
first partitions. Actually, it resembled John Nosler's scenario.
Speaker 4 (36:56):
Yeah, and the fact that the bullet breaks apart was
the thing that made me be like, I don't want
to shoot, but it.
Speaker 6 (37:02):
Doesn't only the front end breaks apart.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
Yeah, But I found a pedal that peeled off and
literally like tumbled down the loin and I was like, oh,
this defeated the purpose of killing this year.
Speaker 6 (37:14):
Oh no, bullet's been around for I shot my first along.
Speaker 4 (37:20):
I shot my first.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
One hundred and thirty grain partitions out of a two
seventy shout it a lot of times.
Speaker 5 (37:28):
Salisbury Steak fans.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
South Very steak exactly pre ground Question seven. This is
comes to us from the realm of woodsmanship, and I'm
going to use the word realm again in this question.
In the realm of wilderness medicine, what do the letters
h A stand for in acronyms like the conditions haste
and hate which occurred to travelers in mountainous terrain? What
(37:56):
do the letters h A stand for in acronyms like
h A ce and h a pe which occur to
travelers in mountainous terrain? See some writing on the boards here.
I can tell you the last two letters, can you really?
Speaker 5 (38:17):
But I can't remember the first two?
Speaker 3 (38:20):
Mmmm.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Well that doesn't get me any points, but you can
do the flavor text. If you've maybe seen the movie
K two with Chris O'Donnell, Oh, I gotcha, gotcha. This
this condition plays a prominent role in the plot of
that movie, along with the drug dexamethasone. Hmm, just a
(38:43):
cordericow steroid.
Speaker 5 (38:44):
It would be the first time of confident. I'm not
even that confident.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
I think do we all? Broody's writing no, cals Cal's
reconsidering his answer this question seven, Phil, it is Chris
O'Donnell in K two, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (39:02):
Oh, you're asking the wrong guy.
Speaker 5 (39:04):
I'd say, he's exactly the right guy.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
Why don't we? Are we ready to flip the boards over? Col?
Flip him over?
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Gang?
Speaker 1 (39:15):
You're honest? Everybody except for Tresta says high altitude. I like, hasty, Bill,
I like the correct answer is high altitude HANSI, what
are the other two letters? Pulmonary edema and cerebral okay?
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Okay? Uh.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
High altitude cerebral edemon and high altitude pulmonary edema are
serious medical conditions that can affect people traveling in mountainous regions.
Both HASTE and HAPE are potentially life threatening and can
develop when people ascend to high elevations too quickly without
proper acclimization. HACE involves swelling of brain tissue due to
fluid liquid leakage, while HAPE involves fluid accumulation in the lungs.
(40:00):
Both require immediate medical attention and descent to lower elevations.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
Yeah, but that's the beauty is like you get them
to lower elevations. That's the first.
Speaker 1 (40:09):
First thing nature provides the cure.
Speaker 3 (40:12):
It looks like Chris o'donald is not in K two
The Ultimate High Michael A bunch of people who are
just not in the public consciousness anymore. But Michael Bean,
Matt Craven.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Is Chris o donald in any sort of mountain movie?
Speaker 3 (40:25):
You know, I'll do some more research check that.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
I can just picture Chris o'donald up in the mountains
in any event. Question eight. In the realm of fishing,
what is the common term for a four sided lead
weight with a point at one end, often used by
shore anglers for fishing stationary baits? What is the common
(40:52):
term for a four sided lead weight with a point
at one end, often used by shore anglers for fishing
stationary baits? Quick answer out of Brody. I put this
one for question eight instead of question ten. I see
that to keep things interesting. The answer from Spencer.
Speaker 3 (41:13):
Here, Uh, randall, you were thinking of the film Vertical Limit.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
Yeah, God, embarrassing.
Speaker 4 (41:25):
We can't forget Cliffhanger amongst that genre. Yeah, that's a fantastic,
is it is? And then what's the Clint Eastwood Mountain
climbing a movie where the Eiger sanction?
Speaker 5 (41:35):
There is.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
One?
Speaker 1 (41:38):
Yeah, and then they made they made it. The more
recent one is the movie of Everest, about the John
Krack hour, about the ninety six Everest disaster. But I
never saw it.
Speaker 3 (41:48):
I think I had a restack dah.
Speaker 4 (41:51):
Yeah, it's got in there.
Speaker 1 (41:52):
It's low.
Speaker 3 (41:53):
Benicio del Toro might be in it.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
I don't know who plays Beck Weathers is it?
Speaker 4 (41:58):
Is it j Jail Halls in there?
Speaker 1 (42:00):
Yeah, Beck weathers Is. I don't think he plays oh Beck.
But it's a good actor.
Speaker 5 (42:07):
Trust me, I trust you.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
Phill you on IMDb right now.
Speaker 4 (42:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
In the meantime, why don't we flip over our boards?
Gang Gianna says pyramid, Cal says pyramid, List says dead weight,
Trust says crank, Spencer says pyramid, Hansi says pyramid, and
Brodie says pyramid. The correct answer is pyramid. Sure. Anglers
typically use pyramid sinkers because the pointed design helps anchor
(42:37):
the weight in sand or mud, preventing it from rolling
in surf or current. This allows for a more stationary
bait presentation while fishing from beaches, piers or banks. I
have lost a great number of pyramid sinkers by snagging
them on the bottom of the Little Miami River. M guys,
you guys ever use pyramid sinkers?
Speaker 2 (42:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (42:58):
Yeah, that's I feel like that's something the host does
Little Miami.
Speaker 5 (43:01):
That's in Ohio, right, Yes, yes, we are you catching there? Catfish?
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Catfish? Oh? Anything you want? Catfish, carp drum.
Speaker 5 (43:08):
That's not quite anything I want?
Speaker 1 (43:11):
Phil, what are we doing on beck Weathers?
Speaker 3 (43:14):
Well, I'm looking up the cast for the twenty fifteen
film Everest, just because I remember there have been a
lot of it. Was Josh Brolin, I was, I was
giving some Yeah, jast Night lost.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
No, Phil, We've got two questions left. How about a
scoreboard update, as is customary and in fact required by
Spencer's hosting guidelines.
Speaker 3 (43:38):
I would love to Randall, whoa look at this game.
Everyone's on the board. Alyssa and Testa have one point.
Damn Spencer falling from the last game. He's got three.
But the players left in the game after question eight
are Yannis cal and Hansei with five and Brody Henderson
in first place with six.
Speaker 2 (43:57):
Points.
Speaker 1 (43:58):
Now, for those of you falling along at home, my
average winning answer score is an eight. So if Brody
gets the next two questions correct, we'll be hitting that
right on the nose. That's what you look for in
a host, Just solid, reliable. Question nine, yep, Spencer. Question nine.
(44:19):
This is in the realm of public lands under the
public Land Survey System? How many six hundred forty acre
sections make up a township? Under the public Land Survey System?
How many six hundred forty acre sections make up a township?
(44:42):
A lot of stumped faces in the room. Phil, Who
did Jillenhall play?
Speaker 3 (44:49):
He played Scott Fisher?
Speaker 1 (44:51):
Oh yeah? Under the public Lands Survey System, how many
six h you know acre sections make up a township? No, guys, ever,
you ever turned on the township the section township range
filter on your.
Speaker 2 (45:10):
On X Yes.
Speaker 5 (45:11):
No, But before on X like got to the states
that I really cared about, I owned a stock of
a stack of plat books like that. Those were so
valuable to me. That's what I'd asked for for Christmas,
so that Santa usually did pretty good. There's still somewhere around.
But then on X made them irrelevant.
Speaker 1 (45:33):
What did the Santa at the mall. Kind of look
did he give you when you showed up with a
list of quadrangle maps?
Speaker 5 (45:38):
You said, what's the plat book? So I'm guessing based
on that, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (45:45):
Spencer, Hansei Brodie have answers. Oh, Hanse doesn't have an answer.
God the reverse to the Whitebore got me again. Joannis
is an answer. Cal I wrote something, He's got something
down trust and Alyssa.
Speaker 5 (45:58):
I'm nostalgic for those play book days that made it
a lot harder to track down the right person. But
you can't beat on.
Speaker 1 (46:06):
X Well Gang Hansie. You know I'm not trying to
pressure you. I just I feel like earlier, I feel
like when we were two questions in this episode, people
will giving me a hard time for taking too long.
And now we're at question nine and I'm really feeling
the heap. Well, I think this has gone.
Speaker 7 (46:25):
Well for the because I hosted so long. We're running
into lunchtime and I think you're getting a little anger response.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
I've got some I've got some meatballs upstairs. I'm gonna
dig into go to chain meatballs.
Speaker 7 (46:37):
I've got some Mallard duck legs.
Speaker 1 (46:40):
Why don't we flip them over. Gang honest says one
hundred Cols is ten Alyssa one, Tresa one, Spencer thirty two,
Hansey twenty four, Brody twenty five. Gang, that's a zero
percenter real close. The answer is thirty six. The public
land Survey system established by the Land Ordinance of seventeen
(47:03):
eighty five, a township contains thirty six sections, with each
section being one hundred or excuse me, six hundred and
forty acres. The standard township is six miles by six
miles square. It's divided into thirty cententy said that sections
within a township are numbered in a specific pattern, starting
with Section one in in the northeast corner, and then
(47:24):
proceeding west to Section six, then south and east to
Section twelve, then west to Section eighteen, and so on
in alternating patterns, with Section thirty six being in the
southeast corner. Now, what's interesting to know is that states
received certain numbers of sections from each township as state
trust lands to support public education and other designated beneficiaries.
Speaker 5 (47:48):
It was like sixteen and thirty two two.
Speaker 1 (47:51):
It's different between the states. The next sentence, these allotments
varied and became increasingly more generous as new states were
admitted to the Union. For instance, Congress granted on Tana
and Idaho section sixteen and thirty six of each township.
Will New Mexico and Arizona received two sixteen, thirty two
and thirty six.
Speaker 5 (48:09):
So as the country grew west, I think Ohio was
a bad example of like they sold all their school
lands almost immediately, and so then they're like, all right,
we got to make sure folks have these things and
use them. And so that was how the school trust
lands came about.
Speaker 1 (48:24):
And I would say some of us US meeting Americans
are still trying to get rid of these school trust lands.
As we speak.
Speaker 5 (48:33):
School trust and trust lands are a little weird and
that I think their objective is to like make as
much money as possible, which can lead to things like
sales if they decide, like, our best use of this
thing would be to sell it. I you know, certain
states the way.
Speaker 1 (48:48):
They're they're yeah, they're a rid to manage them for
maximum yield.
Speaker 5 (48:53):
Yeah, so's it's unique versus the other public lands we're familiar.
Speaker 4 (48:57):
Like if your brain functions in a way to where
you're like land doesn't grow in value we're making more land.
I'm sure somewhere. Sure, then it makes sense to sell
m if you can wrap your head around that.
Speaker 7 (49:13):
I thought you didn't want to get political in this episode, Randall.
Speaker 1 (49:16):
This is in politics. Is just American? Oh, this is
just America.
Speaker 4 (49:20):
For those of us at this table in the state
of Montana, one point two five million acres? Ye, right now,
what they're trying to sell right now? That quote unquote
fair market value. Now, before we go, the same suns
of guns. Like every time there's an easement bill in
this state, groups show up and they say, hey, we
(49:42):
can't give an easement in perpetuity because it's based on
fair market value, and we can't see into the future.
So how could you ever come up with what's fair
right now for the future. Those same people right now
are saying, hey, let's sell one point two five million
acres based on fair market value. And it drives me insane. Now,
(50:05):
before we go to our Oh no, we've got another question.
Speaker 7 (50:14):
I know, but I don't think anybody can. Somebody can, Yeah, yeah,
let's all right, let's keep playing.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
Before we go to our final question, here's a quick
rundown of the correct answers for you folks playing along
number one, Humble number two, who for who could forget
Salisbury Steak number three, Minnesota number four, keen I number five,
Duluth number six, Partition number seven, High Altitude number eight,
Pyramid number nine thirty six. Now the score at this
(50:48):
point is Brody six, Hansi five, Cow five, Jannis five.
So this last question really could send us six.
Speaker 5 (50:58):
And then you got that one wrong.
Speaker 2 (51:00):
Wait, that's great.
Speaker 4 (51:01):
Yeah, it was a zero percenter classic one.
Speaker 1 (51:06):
So this is a really important question, is my point
for them? And I think you're gonna like it. This
is our listener Question of the Week from Brian Green.
For submitting this great question, Brian will receive a board
game signed by the crew and if you want a
chance to win Listener Question of the Week, then send
your question to Trivia at the meat Eater dot com.
(51:29):
This last question comes to us in the realm of cooking,
what nine letter side dish, which gets its name from
the Algonquin tribes of New England, can be described as
a medley of grains, legumes, vegetables, and sometimes meats. Most
common ingredients include sweetcorn, beans, tomatoes, and peppers. Whatnot? We
(51:53):
got a lot oh I didn't think that many people
jump on their boards. What nine letters side gets its
name from the Algonquin tribes of New England can be
described as a medley of grains, legumes, vegetables, and sometimes meats.
Most common ingredients include sweet corn, beans, tomatoes, and peppers. Hmmm,
(52:22):
sounds good.
Speaker 5 (52:27):
You write the longest questions of any host, Randall. You've
got you've cornered that market.
Speaker 1 (52:32):
Well, this was written by Brian Green, and that's why
it's our listener question of the week. I just think, yeah, more.
Speaker 4 (52:39):
Bang for the buck for the listener. Longer the question,
I believe.
Speaker 1 (52:43):
I added the most common ingredients at the end as
a as a little I didn't think it would. I
didn't think it was easy enough with it.
Speaker 6 (52:50):
It's a good idea to write the question so long
that my time, Randall gets to the end of the question.
You forgot what the beginning was about.
Speaker 1 (53:02):
How many sections are in a township?
Speaker 4 (53:04):
Thirty six?
Speaker 1 (53:05):
See variety. That's what you're looking for in a host.
Variety and length of questions.
Speaker 5 (53:14):
Does anybody know this?
Speaker 2 (53:15):
I do.
Speaker 1 (53:16):
Brody knows it.
Speaker 5 (53:17):
Brody's gonna win if he thinks, you know.
Speaker 1 (53:19):
If he's wrong, though, maybe Yannis knows it.
Speaker 2 (53:22):
I think I got a feeling, honest knows.
Speaker 7 (53:25):
I had a word come into my brain and has
nine letters in it. I think I'm going for it.
Speaker 1 (53:32):
I really liked Brian's question. He submitted too, and I
forget what the other one was, but this one really
stood out to me. It's a great question.
Speaker 7 (53:39):
I wish when they wrote in though, they provided a
little flavor text too.
Speaker 1 (53:43):
Let me I was going to get to that. Brian
provided me with some flavor.
Speaker 5 (53:47):
Text, like like a page and a half, three pages
of flavor text. I'll have people send in entire scripts.
Speaker 2 (53:55):
Well, here you go, Okay.
Speaker 1 (53:56):
Yeah, don no, no, Brian, Brian sent him flavor text
and even included a link to a recipe on the
meat eater dot com.
Speaker 5 (54:07):
Wow, this one, right.
Speaker 1 (54:10):
You never know, do you know what every recipe on
the media familiar?
Speaker 6 (54:13):
You didn't like this stuff when I was a little
all right, I.
Speaker 4 (54:17):
Guess I don't know if I've ever had it.
Speaker 1 (54:19):
Why don't we flip them over? Yannis says sack attash,
Cal says suck attash, Melissa says gulash tress cowboy Caviar,
Spencer says cornucopia. Hansey says suck attash. Brody says suck attacks.
Speaker 5 (54:36):
Got who spelled it right?
Speaker 8 (54:39):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (54:40):
You you did? No one else didn't put that. Let's see,
let's see what is What is that s u c
C s U c C I had to suck Attash
comes from the Narragansett word suck with tash, which was
(55:01):
described by British explorer John Carver in seventeen eighty seven
as quote, unripe corn and beans in the same state,
boiled together with bear's flesh, the fat of which moistens
the pulse and renders it beyond comparison delicious. I got
that from Brian. This next bit, I added, I can't wait.
Speaker 4 (55:20):
To use that. You know that dinner was lovely. It
really moistened my pulse.
Speaker 2 (55:26):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (55:27):
Famously, the Looney Tunes and Mary Melodies character Sylvester J.
Pussycat would often exclaim suffering suck atash when he was frustrated,
especially during his failed attempts to catch Tweetybird. The phrase
became one of his most recognizable catchphrases, along with his
characteristic lisp. For a suck attash recipe, check out Wade
Trong's recipe for miso butter based in Kobia with summer
(55:50):
suck Atash on the meat eater dot.
Speaker 5 (55:52):
Com Good Flavor text.
Speaker 1 (55:54):
Yeah, Brian killed it.
Speaker 4 (55:56):
I thought suck Tash had squash are I think it can.
Speaker 5 (56:02):
Have whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
You can have whatever you want, be corn I was.
Speaker 5 (56:05):
I liked that.
Speaker 1 (56:06):
I thought that was the big thing is you have
some carbs and you have some whatever beans are you know? Yeah,
there's some there's some magical combination of nutrition. Brody, if
I'm not mistaken, you are the winner of this game
of meat Eater Trivia to what worthy cause? Would you
(56:29):
like to donate your w Did we.
Speaker 6 (56:31):
Deplete our l A L A I fund with the
corner crossing?
Speaker 4 (56:35):
Well, no, we're I mean we're building it.
Speaker 5 (56:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (56:38):
I donated in part to that. I think when I
won the championship, Yeah, I think that.
Speaker 2 (56:44):
I don't recall. Let's throw it in there.
Speaker 6 (56:48):
Mediator Land Access Initiative.
Speaker 1 (56:50):
Fantastic, fantastic, five hundred dollars to the Meat Eater Land
Access Initiative. Well, gang, this was fun. Join us next
week for more Meat Eater Trivia only game show where
conservation always wins. Tiebreaker. Yes, Spencer from South Dakota, He's
the host.
Speaker 3 (57:11):
Using those smooth, mellow tones, he lays them questions down.
Speaker 1 (57:21):
He likes taking those two and three year old bucks.
It's an avid amateur
This podcast. Can we start the episode now.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
In the last one?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Yeah, Randall, we've been rolling for five minutes.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
In that case, Welcome to Meet Eater Trivia, the only
game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Randall Williams.
Today we're joined by Spencer, Yiannis, Brody, cal Tresa, Alyssa
and Hansey. This is a ten round quiz show with
question I thought we were doing a new.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Fingers slipped on the light control here continue.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Gotta put that epilepsy warning on the top of it.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
This is a ten round quiz show with questions for
meat eaters four verticals which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking.
There is a prize. Meat eater will donate five hundred
dollars to the conservation organization of the winners choosing. Now
for the stat of the week. This week, we're looking
at player performance from previous episodes I've hosted. The average
(01:08):
player score in those rounds was a four point eight,
with the average winning score being an eight. That means
Randall hosted episodes are slightly easier than Yannis hosted episodes.
That's right, which is good because Janni's first two episodes
were incredibly difficult, to the point that they weren't very
fun to play.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
Oh wow, and no cooking questions.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
I just feel like the way this is written, Spencer,
the way you wrote this made it sound like my
episodes are bad.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
No, no, I.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Think it should say that means randall hosted episodes are
just right.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
Okay, there you go, They're just right.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Goldiete.
Speaker 6 (01:45):
Yeah, are you gonna have all four verticals this time?
Because Jannis barely.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Yes, and I'm going to introduce a new vertical today.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Actually, okay, good.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Now for the I FAQ here's our Infrequently Asked Question segment.
If you have a trivia related question for our crew,
send it to Trivia at the Meat Eater dot com
with the subject line I FAQ. This one comes from
Spencer Newhart says, what does it mean to be a
randomal Now?
Speaker 5 (02:14):
Yanni thinks I'm always planning these questions, but here planting
a question. Yanna, So what is a randomal Well?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
I asked Phil to contemplate this. I was going to
reach out to the community. We're all in touch on Instagram. Uh, Phil,
did you do you have an answer for us?
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Sure, this is this is the first thing I wrote
up here, I said, a randomal is an alpha who
lives life not for the destination or the journey, for
the complete but for the competition and hot dogs you
crush along the way. Is also keen enough to distinguish
that from the journey.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Okay, that's good, that's good.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
I wrote a few notes. I said, they don't take
themselves too seriously, but they don't like funny business when
it comes to trivia. But I said, randamals likes spelling
things correctly. It's another point of emphasis for us. But
I think they come from all walks of life. I
think regionally speaking, most of them live within one hundred
to one hundred and fifty miles of the Ohio River. Yeah,
(03:17):
just people who like case meat, professional basketball. There are
a lot of a lot of folks up out there
who like guns, like weird information about guns.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
So now we know there were people previously who didn't
consider themselves randomals. Now that they just heard themselves described, it's.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
A growing moment. It's a real tribe. Yeah, we've had
I've actually be.
Speaker 7 (03:38):
Honest, do you have something well so happy that you say,
but you reminded me that randomals love case meat? You
remember last week I mentioned that I hung out with
Eli Cairo from Olympia Provisions. He sent me a box
of meat. There's a lot of case meat in it.
They make a product called that. I don't know if
I'm gonna pronounce this properly, Hans he might be to
(04:00):
be able to help me. But it's uh cossack kriner
like k A with the umlau s e k r
a I n e r. It's basically this lovely like
very multified frankfurter thing. But it has Swiss cheese dotted
in it. Not some high temp bullshit, the real deal.
I'm telling you, set you free, buddy. I'm going to
(04:20):
bring you a package. Yeah, let's do that.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Why is Hansei a subject matter expert on that?
Speaker 7 (04:25):
Just pronunciation.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
O German derschermier Desmyer. Sorry, everyone loves to put the
the rx R in there. That's okay, Alan, probably did
you dirty?
Speaker 5 (04:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Yeah, I will note that. Actually random's I found Alan Dershowitz.
That's the only Sorry, that's the stuff that rand look
for right there.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
But it's actually a real flavor.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
It's it's a real thing. Random is a term I
found out that refers to it's a It's an abbreviation
of random animal and when people are messing around with
AI to generate strange creatures. Apparently, randomal is a term
that they used to describe, like they'll tell AI to
make up like a tiger with scale.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
I thought it was just a category of people you
came up with that.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Yeah, I kind of started getting that the more he's
like you it's a real thing, because I keep saying that.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Over id an escape room this weekend and AI generated
randomles were a part of the escape room.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Really, WHOA Did you know that they were randomals at
the time.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
No, I just learned this right now.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I learned that this morning.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Did you escape, Phill We escaped?
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Yes, I bet you escape room.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
I mean, I've got a one thousand average batting average
on escape rooms.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Are you like a team leader when that's happening.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Uh, it's it's a competition between me and my wife
Adrian about who's the leader.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
I just that you guys, you were taking the kids
to an escape.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Oh yeah, we shoved them aside and did it just panic.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Inn escape rooms? I don't like it now for some housekeeping.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
That's the difference between a randomal and a philistine.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
This one is for the Randamals out there now for
some housekeeping. On episode six fifteen, I asked a question
about the fastest commercially produced rifle cartridge in the world,
the two twenty Swift. It was a tiebreaker question. In
the flavor text, I said the following a prototype quote.
A prototype was developed in nineteen thirty four by a
man named Grosvenora Watkins, who necked down the twenty five
(06:28):
three thousand Savage. Many many people have written in to
claim that I'm wrong in this assertion, instead claiming that
the two twenty Swift is based on the six millimeter
Lee Navy, and in fact, I'd like to let you
know that both of us are correct. The version that
was produced by Winchester for the commercial market was based
on the six milimeter Lee Navy. And this comes from
(06:50):
an article published by Paul Box on Accurate shooter dot com,
which is a tremendous website. The carts were introduced by
Winchester in nineteen thirty five for their Model fit fifty
four rifle. A year later, it was added as a
standard cartridge in the Model seventy. And here's where it
gets interesting. What might not be common knowledge to some
reloaders is that the prototype for the Swift was developed
(07:11):
in nineteen thirty four to thirty five by Gross Venora
Watkins by necking down the two fifty Savage case, but
in the end Winchester chose the six milimeter Lee Navy.
So I actually had more information about the development of
this cartridge included in my flavor text, but I rushed
through my reading after a particularly contentious game of trivia. Yeah,
if you'll recall, Steve and cow were particularly upset about
(07:35):
the confusing title of the film Lake Placid, so I
rushed through what I had prepared just to end that episode.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
Good recall.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
So for you careful listening cartridge offiicionados out there, I
apologize for my hasty summary.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
I like those people.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
No, they're gonna get you. Oh, they will get you.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
I like some housekeeping that's like six months old like that. Yeah, yeah,
good throwback. I mean we're still getting emails about it.
That's right now.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
The Sydney Index for today's episode is a three, meaning
that our winner should get six correct answers. But I
think we can do better than that. Gang, And now
we're on to our game of trivia, Phil please play
the drop.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Please note that people write in with that that I
don't say.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Please shout, I try filling throats.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Question one. This is our multiple choice question in the
category of public lands. What river is the only major
river system entirely contained within the state of Nevada and
shares its name with the largest national forest outside of Alaska.
Your options are A Elco be Humboldt, see Reno four,
(09:01):
winn Amucca, and I'll read this once again for those
out there playing it along. What river is the only
major river system entirely contained within the state of Nevada
and shares its name with the largest national forest outside
of Alaska? We have an answer from Brody Let's folks
(09:23):
still chew it on this one. You honest is writing something,
cal Cal's contemplating Spencer's writing. Guys want to Guy's got
any thoughts, any chit chat about this quest? Question?
Speaker 5 (09:36):
I don't know it, but I like this one.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
I think I do.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Oh oh, Hanse, I thought you hadn't written something, but
you have a double yeah. I've never realized how confusing
that might be for a host.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Lived in Nevada for a minute, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Well, I worked in Nevada, but I lived in Trucky.
Speaker 6 (09:54):
So this this river starts and terminates in the state
of Nevada river system.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yes, well it Brodie's correct. If you'll recall Nevada is
part of the Great Basin.
Speaker 5 (10:11):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
It's interesting that you can give us a tip within
the question and it's still not a gimme.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
I liked this question, I do.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
I do say it was.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
It was a last minute. It was a last minute.
I actually I was fact checking one of my questions earlier,
and I thought it was too tricky to make a
hard determination one way or the other. So I came
up with this one and then decided it was too hard,
made it multiple choice, and removed a clue as to
a number of letters in the answer. And I didn't
screw that up like I did when my first question
(10:49):
was gallery for you.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Did you follow that?
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Yeah, I just quite paying.
Speaker 6 (10:54):
That's what I meant.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Oh, sourpus cat, it was pretty pleasant.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
I was still happy.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Do we all have answers? Why don't we flip them over?
Gang Yannas says Humboldt, cal says Alco, Alyssa says Alco.
Trissa says Humboldt. Spencer says Winnemucca. Hondi says Humboldt. Brody
says Humboldt. We have a handful of correct answers in
the room. It's the Humboldt River. The Humboldt River originates
(11:30):
in the Ruby Mountains of northeastern Nevada and flows westward
for approximately three hundred miles before ending in the Humboldt Sink.
It was an important water source for emigrants traveling in
the California Trail during the nineteenth century. This river shares
its name with the Humboldt Taiabi National Forest, which spans
over six million acres across Nevada in eastern California. Both
(11:50):
the river and the forest were named after Alexander von Humboldt,
a Prussian nationalist and explorer who also has named after
him a squid, a penguin, a glacier, a peak, and
an ocean current. That is a hell of a collection. Yeah,
across the gambit there's a wonderful book called The Humboldt Current,
and it's a history of Alexander von Humboldt's life and
(12:12):
his influence on natural thinking.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Huh good for him.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Yeah, jealous, I learned something good, Randalls.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
You've already crushed my host thing from the last episode.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
One question is just very different styles.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
You haven't heard question two.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
I'm excited.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Question two comes to us in the category of cooking.
What dish created by an American physician to combat malnutrition
during the Civil War consists of ground beef mixed with seasonings,
formed into a patty and is typically served with gravy.
I'll read that once again. We're looking for a dish
(12:52):
that was created by an American physician to combat malnutrition
during the Civil War, and it consists of ground beef
mixed with seasonings, formed into a patty and is typically
served with gravy.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Oh listen, I literally just watched in real time inspiration strike.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You ever you ever make one of these?
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Cow based off of that? Yes, some version of that.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Do you know the answer?
Speaker 5 (13:29):
I have an answer Now that you said one of these, though,
that changes my answer.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
I think, well, have you ever made this?
Speaker 5 (13:38):
Right, but you wouldn't say, like, have you ever made
one of these? And the answer with spaghetti, So yeah,
that's true.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
You go down on Main Street, right, you go to
the Cowboy Cafe down there, or the Western Cafe every
single day on the special board, you're gonna see Hamburger
steak for breakfast?
Speaker 5 (13:58):
Uh huh?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Would you like that?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
With gravy? Like, I mean, what are you doing?
Speaker 7 (14:07):
He's already cutting down your question before you've given the answer.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Does anybody else have an answer.
Speaker 7 (14:17):
With what my gut? With what my gut's saying?
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Does anybody?
Speaker 5 (14:21):
I mean, damn, I saw Cow's board. I can't write that.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
What are you doing to my game?
Speaker 4 (14:29):
I'm a people pleaser.
Speaker 6 (14:34):
Fine, as long as you don't change your answer.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
The double sided whiteboards are getting a really spencer's Spencer's
writing here, All right, let's flip them over. Gang chuck stick,
Cal says Salisbury steak, says cube steaks, says burger, I
like Spencer's. Spencer says sword on a shingle, But that's
(15:01):
chip beef. Hansi says chip beef like with toast s
word on a shingle, and Brody says salisbury steak. The
correct answer is Salisbury steak or Hamburger steak steak.
Speaker 5 (15:17):
I well, well, gravy on top, like take.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Your guns, randall, Phil, do you want to do a
quick fact check?
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Okay? But but chuck and cube steak are there. That
has nothing to do with the with the preparation right
of putting gravy on it is far.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
No, you can you can deep fat fry a cube
steak and then you got chicken fried steak.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Cube steak is mechanically tenderized cuff of This is what
AI says. It says, it's not the same thing.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
What about chuck.
Speaker 6 (15:50):
Chuck's just a steak from the chuck, ain't it.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Yeah, yeah, no, they're not the same. AI says once again, Yeah,
chuck steak is just a cut of beef from the shoulder.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
You use cube steak to make chicken fried steak, or
you can use it to make Salisbury.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Made now. The Salisbury steak was created by doctor James
Henry Salisbury. Oftentimes people think it's named after Salisbury, England,
but Salisbury was an American physician who developed it during
the Civil War as a remedy for soldiers suffering from
chronic diarrhea and other ailments. Huh, doctor Salisbury, Because when
I'm suffering from crime diarrhea, the first thing I do
(16:29):
is patty with gravy. I believe that vegetables and starchy
foods produced toxins in the digestive system and advocated for
a meat centered diet. He referred to the ground beef
patties as quote a muscle pulp of beef and advocated
for a meat based Diari said that, and he suggested
that it should be eaten three times a day. Whoa,
(16:51):
yea the.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
First paleo trust your doctors.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
But like s O s is like a military food staple.
Speaker 8 (16:59):
Yeah, they got like a navy You may have said
this was, Yeah, Sualisbury steak and Swiss steak always kind
of go I feel like interchangeably to me too.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
I feel like Swiss steak is like I feel like
Salisbury steak is typically with like a brown gravy, where
Swiss steak is more of like a white.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
But then like enter schnitzel.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Yeah, I mean and hamburger hamburger steak.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Really, is this going on long enough?
Speaker 1 (17:32):
I feel like we're on time right now.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
We're doing great.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
World War One, the anti German sentiment led to a
lot of people abandoning the term hamburger steak. So question
three this is in the category of America. This question
comes to us from Justin Faye of Cincinnati, Ohio. He
knows how to get me to read his question, In
(17:56):
what state do you find the northwest angle the northernmost
in the lower forty eight? In what state do you
find the northwest angle which is the northernmost spot in
the lower forty eight?
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Randall is someone who doesn't care about the NBA or,
with all due respect, the state of Ohio. Can I
still be considered a randomal?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Of course, Okay, thank you.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
That's the thing is, people from all walks of life
are joining the movement. It could be it could be
you like movies. I mean, there's a lot of people
that just enjoy movies.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
It's very it's very inclusive. But aren't you afraid that
if you kind of expand the parameters too far, then
it doesn't make it special or.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Not at all?
Speaker 4 (18:41):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Okay, No, I mean I think there's obviously certain types
of people that could never be randomals.
Speaker 5 (18:47):
Like a racist?
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Yeah exactly, you heard it first, No racist aloud A.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Moment, And I feel like you have to be you
can't be in curious, you know. I feel like I
feel like you just have to be open to the world.
Speaker 5 (19:04):
What about can you be Canadian?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Absolutely?
Speaker 5 (19:08):
Can you be a woman?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Absolutely?
Speaker 5 (19:10):
Okay? Is your wife a randomal?
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Not really?
Speaker 3 (19:14):
I think she's a horrific racist.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
No, she said to me the other day, she said,
I'm the original random one. Oh is that sweet? Did
that really happen? Leave that up to the viewers at home.
I see we all have answers. Why don't we flip
them over? Gang Giannis is Maine, cal says Washington, Alyssa's Maine,
(19:43):
Tresis's Maine, Spencer Minnesota, Hansi Minnesota, Brody Maine. We have
a correct answer in the room. It's Minnesota. This unique
creature is actually separated from the rest of Minnesota by
Lake of the Woods, and you can only reach it
(20:03):
by boat or by traveling through Canada. The Northwest Angle
extends into Canadian territory and as the result of a
surveying error during border negotiations between the United States and
Great Britain in the late eighteenth century. I don't think
that's correct. It's early nineteenth century. The Northwest Angle reaches
to about forty nine degrees twenty three minutes north latitude,
(20:24):
making it the only part of the contiguous United States
that extends north of the forty ninth parallel.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Good for us. Glad we got that.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yeah. Interestingly enough, when we were working on the when
we were working on the landlocked report for tierracpian Onyx,
the algorithm flagged all of that as inaccessible landlocked public
lands because you couldn't get there by the road system.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
Well, as soon as Canada becomes the fifty first state,
that line's going to move on.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Let's not get into politics on this episode of the program.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Brody, shouldn't it be called the North Central Angle?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
Depends what you're talking about it being in relation.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
To well, yeah, exactly context, Come on northwest of.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
What question four fishing, Paul, What turquoise Blue River, which
the Alaska Department of Fishing Game calls quote the most
heavily fished river in the forty nine state, produced the
world record angler caught king salmon in nineteen eighty five. Again,
(21:29):
we're looking for a turquoise Blue river that Alaska Department
of Fishing Game calls the most heavily fished river in
the state, and it produced the world record angler caught
king salmon in nineteen eighty five. Had quick answers from Brody.
From Yannis Hansi's writing, Cal is in a deep meditative state.
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Oh, I fished the damn thing and I can't remember that.
You sure?
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Where were you?
Speaker 4 (22:01):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
I'm just trying to stir up some put yourself back
in your waiting boots for a moment.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
This is.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
This river, Turquoise Blue, the most heavily fished river in Alaska,
and it produced the world record angler caught king salmon
in nineteen eighty five.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Got an answer, you honest, I do.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Have you been there, Yannie?
Speaker 1 (22:30):
I have Spencer's got an answer, PONSI got an answer. Oh,
I see you've added a star to I'm trying.
Speaker 5 (22:36):
I'm trying to help you.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Yeah, I think that give you. That does help? Thank you, Yeah,
it DOESNA say, trust probably has an answer on this one.
Speaker 7 (22:45):
I've got a great little story, oh, Melissa about the
the Old River.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Oh, this is brutal.
Speaker 5 (22:58):
Randall was actually gonna throw it to you for the
flavor text.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
I can, Yeah, why don't I do that? I don't
have much to add, I was gonna, yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Oh, I got some flavor text for you.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Good. Oh this is lovely.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
From my angling day.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Cal's got a mark or to a whiteboard here, always
tapping it.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Yeah, yeah, writing.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
I think you can just write in front of everyone.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Now, Oh you're just messing.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Yeah, yeah, I'm just burning through mark like they're free ramble.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
We're going to cut back on the swearing. When I
was looking for when I was looking for listener questions,
I came across an email asking us not to swear
so that the children can listen. And I think that's
a fair point.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
Let's curb their growth by keeping them insulated from the
real world good parenting.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I'm a guilty party myself, So you know, cal, are
we gonna get there? Are we gonna.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
There's only a few rivers in Alaska?
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Just go, just go.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
It's honest.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Ke Jewel just says Coutiny, Spencer says Mackenzie, Hansi says Yukon,
and Brodie says Keen.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
I wait was a wedding calsa.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
The correct answer is the keen.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
This record break, Yeah, I wrote nothing, Phil, thanks.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Yeah uh. This record breaking king salmon was caught by
angler Les Anderson. It weighed ninety seven pounds four ounces
and that's forty four point one kilograms for our international friends.
The Kenai River is famous for its distinctive blue color,
which comes from glacial silt and for its exceptional salmon runs.
It's located on the Keenai Peninsula, and Yannis has something
(25:01):
to add.
Speaker 7 (25:03):
We spent almost a year living in Fairbanks, and my
in laws flew over to explore a little bit of Alaska.
We did a trip down onto the Kenai Peninsula, did
some backpacking, fished the Anchor River a little bit, and
just sort of as a stopover, we said, oh, we'll
rent a little cabin on the Keni.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
We relax a.
Speaker 7 (25:25):
Little bit, take showers after you know, our adventures, and
then get up to the anchorage and get a flight out. Well,
we get there and the dude that owns the cabin
lives right next door. And when we get there, he's like, hey,
you guys like to fish. And my brother and I.
Speaker 4 (25:40):
Are like, what else do we do in life?
Speaker 2 (25:42):
You know?
Speaker 7 (25:43):
And he's like, well, the soak are just screaming right now.
Come on, I've got rods and everything we need. And
we're like oh, and we literally didn't even take gear
into the cabin. We walk with this fella down to
the river. The next thing I know, it's two o'clock
in the morning and we've got a cooler full. My
brother in law quit fishing. I was snagging and just
(26:03):
throwing him to him. He was fullying them and just
putting him into the cooler. And by I think we
went to bat somewhere between three and four o'clock in
the morning. It was a great fishing experience. So no rest, no, no.
I might have got a quick shower, but it was
quite fun.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (26:19):
There are many people who feel that this record king
salmon record world record will fall to a fisher, to
a to a non native king salmon fishery in South
America right now.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
Really interesting.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Interesting, yep.
Speaker 6 (26:36):
You may have seen videos of like these eighty pounders
that are being caught down there. They think the next
world records coming from down there.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Trusty, you were very close, but you had It's artificial.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
It's artificial.
Speaker 6 (26:49):
I think like probably derived from maybe from farming or
just introduced fish.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
And I think I could be wrong on this.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
I think those fish are coming out of the Atlantic Ocean,
not the Pacific.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
Interesting question five.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
This question is in the category of gear or maritime freight.
What is the busiest port on the Great Lakes which
shares its name with a square roll top backpack designed
to fit in the bottom of canoes? What is the
busiest port on the Great Lakes which shares its name
(27:28):
with a square roll top backpack designed to fit in
the bottom of canoes? Stumper Randall, anybody do some, if
only some, backcountry canoe trips, real staple of the north Woods.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
What the hell are those things?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Just think about your start going through your your Great
Lakes ports, your major ports. That's a hint.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
I study those all the time.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
I just threw that in because I thought it was
a fun tidbit. The question is actually about the packs.
Spencer's writing, HANSI, do you have an answer? Yeah, yeah,
I'm not confident about it, But Spencer's got an answer.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
Not confident either. I don't know if this is a
point many canoe trip h It's might be a zero percenter.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I don't think so. I think someone's got it.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
In them all these Great Lakes boys in here.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Yeah, canoe packs, they fit right in the bottom of
your canoe or all square well roll tops.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
Hm.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
And I'll read this again because I'm not sure if
I read it again, What is the busiest port on
the Great Lakes which shares its name with a square
roll top backpack designed to fit in the bottom of canoes.
There's some listeners right now.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Oh, just jumping out of their pants.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yeah, losing it.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
They would portage their way here and deliver the message
if they could. Do you have an answer, Cal, It's
the wrong answer, you know. It's like this goot, like
we can't tell you how far it is. We have
to tell you how far. And Rods that technic culture,
you know, well is it a mile? Like, well, it's
(29:34):
sixteen rods just drag me insane.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Oh, Brody suffering are waiting on me.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
No, I think Cal and Brody.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
I can just.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Haven they ain't got it.
Speaker 7 (29:54):
Well, I'm gonna I'm gonna write something down.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Once you three go flip them over.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Gang Giannis says Detroit, Cal says Duluth, Melissa says Port. Dry,
Bag says Dry, Spencer says Marias Hansi says Port Huron,
and Brody says Milwaukee. We have a correct answer to
the room. The answer is du Luth. Dang Trading Company.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
To Dluth is on fire. I didn't think it was
a busy port.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
The Port of Duluth Superior located where Lake Superior meets
the Saint Louis River at the western tip of the
Great Lakes, handles more cargo by tonnage than any other
Great Lakes by tonnage. Yeah, it's everything iron ore, attack pellets,
Oh yeah, col grain and other.
Speaker 5 (30:55):
Like that.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
The Duluth Pack is a square roll top backpack or
bag originally designed to fit in the bottom of canoes.
It's a classic piece of outdoor equipment that dates back
to eighteen eighty two when it was created by Camille
Poier in Duluth, Minnesota. These packs are known for their
durability and become iconic and canoe camping in wilderness exploration,
(31:15):
particularly in the Boundary Waters region.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
There's a great, great restaurant next to the Duluth Pack
Company in Duluth that has its own like smokehouse for
Lake spear, whitefish.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Yeah, it's a killer and lake trout.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Oh man, well, gang, I thought we'd do better on that.
I'm glad it wasn't a zero percenter. We're now halfway
through our game of trivia, and that means it's time
for a scoreboard update from Phil the engineer.
Speaker 4 (31:43):
Oh my god, oh if hold on one second on Duluth. Yeah,
hey listeners, TBT. My cousin is going through med school.
She's in Duluth. She needs a job. Just talking.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
So if you own a hospital, well.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
I mean she just needs to make money. So bakery
just so happens. I mean, I was just talking to
my uncle about this. She needs a job, isn't it
isn't trampled by from Duluth. Yeah, I can get her
concert tickets.
Speaker 5 (32:15):
Also, Frank Lloyd Wright like one of the most famous
architects in the world. His only gas station, I think
is located.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
We need to move it along.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Spencer, I like better Phil up on this scoreboard.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
I'd love to LETSSA. You're on the board with zero points.
Tresa and Spencer have one point apiece. Johannest Cal and
HANSI are all tied up with two and the only
person that's lining up with the Sydney Index so far
is Brody Henderson. He has three points at halftime.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Interesting, gang not remember the KENI it's competitive here, it's
competitive game. I'm really excited for the second half. Question
six comes to us in the category of hunting. What
class hunting bullet first tested by John Nosler in nineteen
forty seven, gets its name from the internal structure that
(33:08):
divides its two lead cores. What classic hunting bullet, first
tested by John Nosler in nineteen forty seven, gets its
name from the internal structure that divides its two lead cores.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
Shot cup critters bullets still a great bullet?
Speaker 1 (33:32):
It is a great bullet, Cal, do you have an answer?
Speaker 4 (33:36):
I'll tell you. Guys said great bullet.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Don't besmirch John Nosler's legacy here, Cal, It's tried and true.
Speaker 7 (33:47):
I can, I think recount his story of what made
him the hull that made him want to let this bullet.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
I'll let you do the flavor text and then I'll
check it against my flavor text. Just a fun little
game of having other people do the the flavor text.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
Why I having a hard time with that? An having
annurinism or something.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
John Nosler would be a great name for like and
that would have been in a seventies and.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
John Nossler? How do you think he got a seed
money for the Bowler Company? Very money? M this is
a good kid's episode. What were you saying, Melissa.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
I don't know this one.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
I tried to I tried to get Sydney. I tried
to lead her into this one.
Speaker 7 (34:44):
I hope your son's not gonna say, Mom, this is
what I shot my giant bowl with.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
No, but it's not, oh, you know, no. But I'm
just thinking about how far away that bowl was.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Wouldn't have been a good Joe, wouldn't have.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
A good choice. Although they are at the front, half is.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Spencer is still right.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
Excuse me, I didn't mean to clear my throat into
the microphone.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Well, Steve really opened the damn on that one.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
In a New World.
Speaker 5 (35:18):
Game, Spencer, Yeah done.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Are we ready to flip over? Flip over? Gang? Youre honest?
Showed to me partition. Calus says partition. Alyssa no answer,
trusted the Nozzler. Spencer no answer. Hansi says nozzler, partition.
Brody says partition. The correct answer is partition.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (35:47):
I believe John Nozzleer was shooting at a mud caked
moose if I remember correctly, and was wailing away and
nothing was dying. And I can't remember if he recovered
that moose or not, but he came home and said,
I got to make something better.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Shot at seven times on a Mooselam in British Columbia
with a three hundred h and h mind you. The
partition gets its name from the unique internal copper partition
that separates the front and rear lead cores of the bullet.
This innovative design was revolutionary for hunting ammunition because it
allowed for controlled expansion while maintaining weight retention. The front
(36:26):
core is designed to expand upon impact for tissue damage,
while the partition prevents the bullet from breaking apart completely.
The rear core remains intact and ensures deep penetration and
energy transfer.
Speaker 4 (36:38):
I would take the acubond over the partition one thousand
percent of the time.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
I've killed a lot of stuff with acubonds. Killed my
first elk with a partition. I killed one of my
first partitions. Actually, it resembled John Nosler's scenario.
Speaker 4 (36:56):
Yeah, and the fact that the bullet breaks apart was
the thing that made me be like, I don't want
to shoot, but it.
Speaker 6 (37:02):
Doesn't only the front end breaks apart.
Speaker 4 (37:05):
Yeah, But I found a pedal that peeled off and
literally like tumbled down the loin and I was like, oh,
this defeated the purpose of killing this year.
Speaker 6 (37:14):
Oh no, bullet's been around for I shot my first along.
Speaker 4 (37:20):
I shot my first.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
One hundred and thirty grain partitions out of a two
seventy shout it a lot of times.
Speaker 5 (37:28):
Salisbury Steak fans.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
South Very steak exactly pre ground Question seven. This is
comes to us from the realm of woodsmanship, and I'm
going to use the word realm again in this question.
In the realm of wilderness medicine, what do the letters
h A stand for in acronyms like the conditions haste
and hate which occurred to travelers in mountainous terrain? What
(37:56):
do the letters h A stand for in acronyms like
h A ce and h a pe which occur to
travelers in mountainous terrain? See some writing on the boards here.
I can tell you the last two letters, can you really?
Speaker 5 (38:17):
But I can't remember the first two?
Speaker 3 (38:20):
Mmmm.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Well that doesn't get me any points, but you can
do the flavor text. If you've maybe seen the movie
K two with Chris O'Donnell, Oh, I gotcha, gotcha. This
this condition plays a prominent role in the plot of
that movie, along with the drug dexamethasone. Hmm, just a
(38:43):
cordericow steroid.
Speaker 5 (38:44):
It would be the first time of confident. I'm not
even that confident.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
I think do we all? Broody's writing no, cals Cal's
reconsidering his answer this question seven, Phil, it is Chris
O'Donnell in K two, isn't it?
Speaker 3 (39:02):
Oh, you're asking the wrong guy.
Speaker 5 (39:04):
I'd say, he's exactly the right guy.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
Why don't we? Are we ready to flip the boards over? Col?
Flip him over?
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Gang?
Speaker 1 (39:15):
You're honest? Everybody except for Tresta says high altitude. I like, hasty, Bill,
I like the correct answer is high altitude HANSI, what
are the other two letters? Pulmonary edema and cerebral okay?
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Okay? Uh.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
High altitude cerebral edemon and high altitude pulmonary edema are
serious medical conditions that can affect people traveling in mountainous regions.
Both HASTE and HAPE are potentially life threatening and can
develop when people ascend to high elevations too quickly without
proper acclimization. HACE involves swelling of brain tissue due to
fluid liquid leakage, while HAPE involves fluid accumulation in the lungs.
(40:00):
Both require immediate medical attention and descent to lower elevations.
Speaker 4 (40:04):
Yeah, but that's the beauty is like you get them
to lower elevations. That's the first.
Speaker 1 (40:09):
First thing nature provides the cure.
Speaker 3 (40:12):
It looks like Chris o'donald is not in K two
The Ultimate High Michael A bunch of people who are
just not in the public consciousness anymore. But Michael Bean,
Matt Craven.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Is Chris o donald in any sort of mountain movie?
Speaker 3 (40:25):
You know, I'll do some more research check that.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
I can just picture Chris o'donald up in the mountains
in any event. Question eight. In the realm of fishing,
what is the common term for a four sided lead
weight with a point at one end, often used by
shore anglers for fishing stationary baits? What is the common
(40:52):
term for a four sided lead weight with a point
at one end, often used by shore anglers for fishing
stationary baits? Quick answer out of Brody. I put this
one for question eight instead of question ten. I see
that to keep things interesting. The answer from Spencer.
Speaker 3 (41:13):
Here, Uh, randall, you were thinking of the film Vertical Limit.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
Yeah, God, embarrassing.
Speaker 4 (41:25):
We can't forget Cliffhanger amongst that genre. Yeah, that's a fantastic,
is it is? And then what's the Clint Eastwood Mountain
climbing a movie where the Eiger sanction?
Speaker 5 (41:35):
There is.
Speaker 2 (41:38):
One?
Speaker 1 (41:38):
Yeah, and then they made they made it. The more
recent one is the movie of Everest, about the John
Krack hour, about the ninety six Everest disaster. But I
never saw it.
Speaker 3 (41:48):
I think I had a restack dah.
Speaker 4 (41:51):
Yeah, it's got in there.
Speaker 1 (41:52):
It's low.
Speaker 3 (41:53):
Benicio del Toro might be in it.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
I don't know who plays Beck Weathers is it?
Speaker 4 (41:58):
Is it j Jail Halls in there?
Speaker 1 (42:00):
Yeah, Beck weathers Is. I don't think he plays oh Beck.
But it's a good actor.
Speaker 5 (42:07):
Trust me, I trust you.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
Phill you on IMDb right now.
Speaker 4 (42:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
In the meantime, why don't we flip over our boards?
Gang Gianna says pyramid, Cal says pyramid, List says dead weight,
Trust says crank, Spencer says pyramid, Hansi says pyramid, and
Brodie says pyramid. The correct answer is pyramid. Sure. Anglers
typically use pyramid sinkers because the pointed design helps anchor
(42:37):
the weight in sand or mud, preventing it from rolling
in surf or current. This allows for a more stationary
bait presentation while fishing from beaches, piers or banks. I
have lost a great number of pyramid sinkers by snagging
them on the bottom of the Little Miami River. M guys,
you guys ever use pyramid sinkers?
Speaker 2 (42:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (42:58):
Yeah, that's I feel like that's something the host does
Little Miami.
Speaker 5 (43:01):
That's in Ohio, right, Yes, yes, we are you catching there? Catfish?
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Catfish? Oh? Anything you want? Catfish, carp drum.
Speaker 5 (43:08):
That's not quite anything I want?
Speaker 1 (43:11):
Phil, what are we doing on beck Weathers?
Speaker 3 (43:14):
Well, I'm looking up the cast for the twenty fifteen
film Everest, just because I remember there have been a
lot of it. Was Josh Brolin, I was, I was
giving some Yeah, jast Night lost.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
No, Phil, We've got two questions left. How about a
scoreboard update, as is customary and in fact required by
Spencer's hosting guidelines.
Speaker 3 (43:38):
I would love to Randall, whoa look at this game.
Everyone's on the board. Alyssa and Testa have one point.
Damn Spencer falling from the last game. He's got three.
But the players left in the game after question eight
are Yannis cal and Hansei with five and Brody Henderson
in first place with six.
Speaker 2 (43:57):
Points.
Speaker 1 (43:58):
Now, for those of you falling along at home, my
average winning answer score is an eight. So if Brody
gets the next two questions correct, we'll be hitting that
right on the nose. That's what you look for in
a host, Just solid, reliable. Question nine, yep, Spencer. Question nine.
(44:19):
This is in the realm of public lands under the
public Land Survey System? How many six hundred forty acre
sections make up a township? Under the public Land Survey System?
How many six hundred forty acre sections make up a township?
(44:42):
A lot of stumped faces in the room. Phil, Who
did Jillenhall play?
Speaker 3 (44:49):
He played Scott Fisher?
Speaker 1 (44:51):
Oh yeah? Under the public Lands Survey System, how many
six h you know acre sections make up a township? No, guys, ever,
you ever turned on the township the section township range
filter on your.
Speaker 2 (45:10):
On X Yes.
Speaker 5 (45:11):
No, But before on X like got to the states
that I really cared about, I owned a stock of
a stack of plat books like that. Those were so
valuable to me. That's what I'd asked for for Christmas,
so that Santa usually did pretty good. There's still somewhere around.
But then on X made them irrelevant.
Speaker 1 (45:33):
What did the Santa at the mall. Kind of look
did he give you when you showed up with a
list of quadrangle maps?
Speaker 5 (45:38):
You said, what's the plat book? So I'm guessing based
on that, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (45:45):
Spencer, Hansei Brodie have answers. Oh, Hanse doesn't have an answer.
God the reverse to the Whitebore got me again. Joannis
is an answer. Cal I wrote something, He's got something
down trust and Alyssa.
Speaker 5 (45:58):
I'm nostalgic for those play book days that made it
a lot harder to track down the right person. But
you can't beat on.
Speaker 1 (46:06):
X Well Gang Hansie. You know I'm not trying to
pressure you. I just I feel like earlier, I feel
like when we were two questions in this episode, people
will giving me a hard time for taking too long.
And now we're at question nine and I'm really feeling
the heap. Well, I think this has gone.
Speaker 7 (46:25):
Well for the because I hosted so long. We're running
into lunchtime and I think you're getting a little anger response.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
I've got some I've got some meatballs upstairs. I'm gonna
dig into go to chain meatballs.
Speaker 7 (46:37):
I've got some Mallard duck legs.
Speaker 1 (46:40):
Why don't we flip them over. Gang honest says one
hundred Cols is ten Alyssa one, Tresa one, Spencer thirty two,
Hansey twenty four, Brody twenty five. Gang, that's a zero
percenter real close. The answer is thirty six. The public
land Survey system established by the Land Ordinance of seventeen
(47:03):
eighty five, a township contains thirty six sections, with each
section being one hundred or excuse me, six hundred and
forty acres. The standard township is six miles by six
miles square. It's divided into thirty cententy said that sections
within a township are numbered in a specific pattern, starting
with Section one in in the northeast corner, and then
(47:24):
proceeding west to Section six, then south and east to
Section twelve, then west to Section eighteen, and so on
in alternating patterns, with Section thirty six being in the
southeast corner. Now, what's interesting to know is that states
received certain numbers of sections from each township as state
trust lands to support public education and other designated beneficiaries.
Speaker 5 (47:48):
It was like sixteen and thirty two two.
Speaker 1 (47:51):
It's different between the states. The next sentence, these allotments
varied and became increasingly more generous as new states were
admitted to the Union. For instance, Congress granted on Tana
and Idaho section sixteen and thirty six of each township.
Will New Mexico and Arizona received two sixteen, thirty two
and thirty six.
Speaker 5 (48:09):
So as the country grew west, I think Ohio was
a bad example of like they sold all their school
lands almost immediately, and so then they're like, all right,
we got to make sure folks have these things and
use them. And so that was how the school trust
lands came about.
Speaker 1 (48:24):
And I would say some of us US meeting Americans
are still trying to get rid of these school trust lands.
As we speak.
Speaker 5 (48:33):
School trust and trust lands are a little weird and
that I think their objective is to like make as
much money as possible, which can lead to things like
sales if they decide, like, our best use of this
thing would be to sell it. I you know, certain
states the way.
Speaker 1 (48:48):
They're they're yeah, they're a rid to manage them for
maximum yield.
Speaker 5 (48:53):
Yeah, so's it's unique versus the other public lands we're familiar.
Speaker 4 (48:57):
Like if your brain functions in a way to where
you're like land doesn't grow in value we're making more land.
I'm sure somewhere. Sure, then it makes sense to sell
m if you can wrap your head around that.
Speaker 7 (49:13):
I thought you didn't want to get political in this episode, Randall.
Speaker 1 (49:16):
This is in politics. Is just American? Oh, this is
just America.
Speaker 4 (49:20):
For those of us at this table in the state
of Montana, one point two five million acres? Ye, right now,
what they're trying to sell right now? That quote unquote
fair market value. Now, before we go, the same suns
of guns. Like every time there's an easement bill in
this state, groups show up and they say, hey, we
(49:42):
can't give an easement in perpetuity because it's based on
fair market value, and we can't see into the future.
So how could you ever come up with what's fair
right now for the future. Those same people right now
are saying, hey, let's sell one point two five million
acres based on fair market value. And it drives me insane. Now,
(50:05):
before we go to our Oh no, we've got another question.
Speaker 7 (50:14):
I know, but I don't think anybody can. Somebody can, Yeah, yeah,
let's all right, let's keep playing.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
Before we go to our final question, here's a quick
rundown of the correct answers for you folks playing along
number one, Humble number two, who for who could forget
Salisbury Steak number three, Minnesota number four, keen I number five,
Duluth number six, Partition number seven, High Altitude number eight,
Pyramid number nine thirty six. Now the score at this
(50:48):
point is Brody six, Hansi five, Cow five, Jannis five.
So this last question really could send us six.
Speaker 5 (50:58):
And then you got that one wrong.
Speaker 2 (51:00):
Wait, that's great.
Speaker 4 (51:01):
Yeah, it was a zero percenter classic one.
Speaker 1 (51:06):
So this is a really important question, is my point
for them? And I think you're gonna like it. This
is our listener Question of the Week from Brian Green.
For submitting this great question, Brian will receive a board
game signed by the crew and if you want a
chance to win Listener Question of the Week, then send
your question to Trivia at the meat Eater dot com.
(51:29):
This last question comes to us in the realm of cooking,
what nine letter side dish, which gets its name from
the Algonquin tribes of New England, can be described as
a medley of grains, legumes, vegetables, and sometimes meats. Most
common ingredients include sweetcorn, beans, tomatoes, and peppers. Whatnot? We
(51:53):
got a lot oh I didn't think that many people
jump on their boards. What nine letters side gets its
name from the Algonquin tribes of New England can be
described as a medley of grains, legumes, vegetables, and sometimes meats.
Most common ingredients include sweet corn, beans, tomatoes, and peppers. Hmmm,
(52:22):
sounds good.
Speaker 5 (52:27):
You write the longest questions of any host, Randall. You've
got you've cornered that market.
Speaker 1 (52:32):
Well, this was written by Brian Green, and that's why
it's our listener question of the week. I just think, yeah, more.
Speaker 4 (52:39):
Bang for the buck for the listener. Longer the question,
I believe.
Speaker 1 (52:43):
I added the most common ingredients at the end as
a as a little I didn't think it would. I
didn't think it was easy enough with it.
Speaker 6 (52:50):
It's a good idea to write the question so long
that my time, Randall gets to the end of the question.
You forgot what the beginning was about.
Speaker 1 (53:02):
How many sections are in a township?
Speaker 4 (53:04):
Thirty six?
Speaker 1 (53:05):
See variety. That's what you're looking for in a host.
Variety and length of questions.
Speaker 5 (53:14):
Does anybody know this?
Speaker 2 (53:15):
I do.
Speaker 1 (53:16):
Brody knows it.
Speaker 5 (53:17):
Brody's gonna win if he thinks, you know.
Speaker 1 (53:19):
If he's wrong, though, maybe Yannis knows it.
Speaker 2 (53:22):
I think I got a feeling, honest knows.
Speaker 7 (53:25):
I had a word come into my brain and has
nine letters in it. I think I'm going for it.
Speaker 1 (53:32):
I really liked Brian's question. He submitted too, and I
forget what the other one was, but this one really
stood out to me. It's a great question.
Speaker 7 (53:39):
I wish when they wrote in though, they provided a
little flavor text too.
Speaker 1 (53:43):
Let me I was going to get to that. Brian
provided me with some flavor.
Speaker 5 (53:47):
Text, like like a page and a half, three pages
of flavor text. I'll have people send in entire scripts.
Speaker 2 (53:55):
Well, here you go, Okay.
Speaker 1 (53:56):
Yeah, don no, no, Brian, Brian sent him flavor text
and even included a link to a recipe on the
meat eater dot com.
Speaker 5 (54:07):
Wow, this one, right.
Speaker 1 (54:10):
You never know, do you know what every recipe on
the media familiar?
Speaker 6 (54:13):
You didn't like this stuff when I was a little
all right, I.
Speaker 4 (54:17):
Guess I don't know if I've ever had it.
Speaker 1 (54:19):
Why don't we flip them over? Yannis says sack attash,
Cal says suck attash, Melissa says gulash tress cowboy Caviar,
Spencer says cornucopia. Hansey says suck attash. Brody says suck attacks.
Speaker 5 (54:36):
Got who spelled it right?
Speaker 8 (54:39):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (54:40):
You you did? No one else didn't put that. Let's see,
let's see what is What is that s u c
C s U c C I had to suck Attash
comes from the Narragansett word suck with tash, which was
(55:01):
described by British explorer John Carver in seventeen eighty seven
as quote, unripe corn and beans in the same state,
boiled together with bear's flesh, the fat of which moistens
the pulse and renders it beyond comparison delicious. I got
that from Brian. This next bit, I added, I can't wait.
Speaker 4 (55:20):
To use that. You know that dinner was lovely. It
really moistened my pulse.
Speaker 2 (55:26):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (55:27):
Famously, the Looney Tunes and Mary Melodies character Sylvester J.
Pussycat would often exclaim suffering suck atash when he was frustrated,
especially during his failed attempts to catch Tweetybird. The phrase
became one of his most recognizable catchphrases, along with his
characteristic lisp. For a suck attash recipe, check out Wade
Trong's recipe for miso butter based in Kobia with summer
(55:50):
suck Atash on the meat eater dot.
Speaker 5 (55:52):
Com Good Flavor text.
Speaker 1 (55:54):
Yeah, Brian killed it.
Speaker 4 (55:56):
I thought suck Tash had squash are I think it can.
Speaker 5 (56:02):
Have whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (56:02):
You can have whatever you want, be corn I was.
Speaker 5 (56:05):
I liked that.
Speaker 1 (56:06):
I thought that was the big thing is you have
some carbs and you have some whatever beans are you know? Yeah,
there's some there's some magical combination of nutrition. Brody, if
I'm not mistaken, you are the winner of this game
of meat Eater Trivia to what worthy cause? Would you
(56:29):
