Welcome to. Are you quizzing me? I'm an admirer with my co-host on the deck of a ship. This is a quizzing trivia podcast room. Join us as we dive deep into History. Science fought of God, Ra and so much more. Let's get quitting. And we're back. And so am I this week after last week's guest quizmaster who did a fantastic job? Thank you. H k, life got in the way and I was not able to attend last week's episode but I still do have the ridiculous question
that other day. I had put forward last week for the Thea, please. Enlighten us on the Fun With Flags episode of Antarctica. Fun With Flags and coat of arms, the idea was the question was what what would Antarctica Port if there were were to declare independence on their coat of arms? And I made a mistake, I said, animal, I meant any living being and here's where the answer comes in. It would be my ex because she pretty much personified cold frigid.
Uninhabitable condition and I'm not even on somebody here. If you if you remember the audience and the last week's episode he specifically said that he wouldn't want to get cancelled. Now I am going to have probably the women's Commission of India after us for this particular. I know I'm saying the one person who I was, honestly, I'm kidding. Anybody been kind enough to date. Me has been a very credible completely. Yeah. Okay. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. That was a joke.
People not the apology. The the original answer was a joke. Okay, so now that we have that out of the way, let's start off with a question. I will start us off this week with something, maybe a little unexpected. It's a Straightforward question from the world of movies. So the movie with the highest return of investment pulse producer, gave a return of 90
thousand percent. This is not an unknown movie, it is a movie, which is very well, known in pop culture, and is it's also had its impact on history modern day history as well. So my simple question, which is this movie? Which is given the highest Return Of Interest ever a record which is unlikely to be broken any time zone with the return of interest of a ninety thousand percent. I think you said, Return Of Interest, I believe you meant return on investment, right? Yes. So I'm so sorry.
Return of return on investment. Yes, return of environment on investment of 90 thousand percent. Okay, so instinctively, I want Say deep throat. This e. This is. Yeah, I have two things to say. One is the fact that it's a good thing that he got it so easily because he's a trivia hound and to, why did your mind go to the throat? A lot of movies, I'll tell you why. This is very good reason because I'm sure there's a very good reason. Let me let me save myself my skin now. You're doomed.
Auntie, if you're listening this is what your little boy. Is he sorry? Bob. No. So the reason being because I've started watching this Netflix show, it's been a couple of years that is without Ozark recently and it was argued about money law. So I was talking to a friend and I, we were talking about money laundering. And this example, of the Prophet came up as to how the earnings from deep throat might have been massively inflated because a Of
the theaters adult film theaters back whenever it came out. 70s, I believe in the same house is owned by the Mobsters, the New York mafia. So they used to launder the dirty money through this move. These movie theaters and hence the earnings might be inflated, but at least those are the reported earnings. So the question still stands it just has this small caveat, then it went on me and really what? Yes, yes. And he thinks he doth protest
too much, but yes. Blame It on the mob, blame it on the mob. Yes. So yes, it is. Deep Throat. The very famous NC-17 rated pornographic movie from the 70s. It was made on a budget of 25,000 dollars and made a profit of 22 million. Two hundred fifty, eight thousand, four hundred, sixty, seven dollars, which gave it a return on investment. Of almost 90,000 percent. Basically, what happens is normally, when a patient in a movie releases with an X rating or an NC-17 rating, it's a kiss
of death. Those movies don't run all that. Well, theatrically, but this flick proof very different and it ushered in an era of what came to be known as porno Chic, dirty movies that featured real actors, bona fide plot production value. And as I said, Ted, it's a it turned 90 thousand and fourteen percent return and interest at number, which is kept in the top spot for nearly 50 years and it's unlikely to lose that title anytime soon. So kudos to idea for getting that very quickly.
Yes, yes. Okay. So, what if I did his mom's? Listen, Mm-hmm, I have nothing to say. Speaking of hymns, let me ask you a non-adult question. I'm going to give you a movie taglines and you can tell me which movie it's wrong. Yeah. There's some fun tag lines that I from movies that have lied over the years. So, the first one is Checking unpack. Relax. Take a shower psycho like oh is right? Yeah, that's the one. Okay, the next one on the are unaware, on the are unaware.
Good morning Vietnam. No network. No female suicides in the end. No good guess. But no on the are unaware. Okay, give me a time frame for this. I believe it's the 90s 90s over. This is Connor. No, I would like being a greedy literal on the air 1998 1998. When I should know this, I was practically neck-deep in movies. In 1998. I'd be surprised if you haven't watched it, it's a pretty famous film. Yeah, on the are unaware. I can give the active. That makes it easier.
Yeah. I'm you can try is very easy. So I'll give you that. Okay, I'll give you the actor. Laura Linney, Laura, Linney on the are unaware. Wait, okay. That did not make it easy. I'm blanking Laura, Linney is the Male. Yes. Yeah. And male lead is, should I give it? Should I give it should I give it? Okay. Yeah, it's Jim Carrey. It's a Truman true. It's a Truman Show. Ha ha ha ha hype. The Truman Show. Yes, Laura Linney. Yes, yes. On the air. And oh, yes, it's so obvious on
the air and of area. Okay, okay, hit me on the next one. Let me redeem it. Fear can hold, you prisoner. Hope can set you free Cape here. Now here can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free. There is a movie with a very young Mark Wahlberg which was not my call. God fear now. Okay, interestingly enough that has a connection to dull, but yeah, here can give hope can set you free Shawshank Redemption. No Shawshank Redemption is done. Say. Yeah, right. Yeah. Right. Yeah, let's do one.
Last one. the longer you, wait, the harder it gets Naughty Boy Naughty Boy. Okay. The longer you hit the heart, is it? It's time frame. I need a time frame for this movie. Whichever one is it is the 2000's, the hunger. You wait, Nokia, none blanking we have in the cast. Seth Rogen. Oh yeah, way it is this super bad. No, we have Paul Rudd Anchorman? No okay. Okay, Paul close it close but no not yet, I'm getting flashbacks about it. It's not the Pineapple Express.
It's it's not gonna lead actors. Steve Carell 40 year old virgin the 40 year old woman. Yeah it gets Well, that's a very clever line. That's a very, very clever. It is, I don't know if you know this piece of trivia, the 40 year old virgin that very famous waxing scene, where Steve Carell chest is getting waxed, they actually did that for real. Yeah, I know, I know, I know, and that's his actual hair being waxed of, and so the reactions are all very authentic.
Very, very authentic. But did you know that this lady who was doing? It had lied saying she actually knew to do it. Oh, I don't know. The ha ha. Yes, yeah. So you can actually even see the reactions when you watch this movie, knowing the fact that she doesn't know what she's doing and there's a very dangerous portion. So, after the first trip is taken off, She lays down the second strip, right? So he does that with the strip directly over his nipple. Okay?
So now, apparently Now I don't have much, like this is what I've read, so experienced waxes and Salon people. What they do is they put Vaseline or something over the nipple so that it doesn't affect there's no Nick's no sticking and pulling of the nipple itself. This lady didn't do that. Luckily for him the different drink up of. Otherwise there was a good chance of bleeding and whatnot. Oh God, I'm just feeling some
sleep. Steve and yeah, I know because I've seen the scene with the knowledge that this is happening in real time and actually happening to see Carol and you can see how much that lady was doing. The waxing is breaking her character. Yeah, they can cause, cause she's supposed to whatever Q was. I don't know what you're supposed to do but he can pull back and laughter who she's laughing. This is a very straightforward question. It's been a favorite piece of
trivia of mine. I'm Joy or get this in like two seconds. So canonization is a process by which the Christian Church declares a deceased person to be a saint during the canonization process of the Roman Catholic Church. A lawyer is always appointed to argue against the canonization of the person. It's usually a cardinal. Like one of the caracal Cardinals of the College of cardinals.
It was this person's job to take a skeptical view of the candidates character to look for holes in the evidence and to argue that any Miracles, attributed to the candidate were fraudulent. What is the title or name? Given to this person Devil's Advocate? See, I say I told you it'll two seconds. It is the devil's advocate. Right? Okay, cool. Cool air. Yeah, it doesn't require any explanation.
It's yeah, the person who basically argues The saint is the devil's advocate here, but I've always liked the fact that it came from, you know, that particular source button its peak you of this, though, I'll just do a quick detour. I recently was reading about this and I don't know why it came up as reading about the loving versus Virginia case in
the USA. And this was a case about People being able to match have interracial marriages, I believe the loving day, or whatever it's called was very recently. It was the day that the law was struck down and every state had to accept interracial marriages as being lawful was before that some of the southern states didn't have that on their laws. So I always found it just beautiful poetically. Just how you said like how Devil's Advocate comes from
actual church. I thought there was also a poetic in the since that loving was their last name and they were fighting for the right to marry is anybody regardless of race color of the skin which is sweet. Okay. Let's move on to some geography, speaking of countries. So I'm going to talk about this country which is a Polynesian island country. Are you good with the Polynesian countries? Now it's one of the smaller ones. Okay, I'll give you the name at some more.
Alright, so some I have heard of some of our. Yeah, all right, great. So somewhere in 2011, went from 29th, December. Ember to 31st December. What happened to the missing day that question? This happened in 2011. Yes. Hmm. Something to do with the International Date Line. Yeah. That's that's pretty close and I will give that to you, but do you wanna maybe expound a little bit upon?
What? Exactly. Or maybe I was just guessing because I know the International Date Line is somewhere over there. I'm guessing. Yeah, I'm guessing that So they had to make up for a day. Did it shift the Dateline know, right? That's never happened. Like, not that. I'd heard of 2011's not asleep yet either. So it's not like they were trying to make up for a day. Actually, you are right with the first guess the way they want to be shifted the date line, or you
can read through. It's likely what they did was they were earlier on the east of them International Date Line. So that was the UTC - 11. Ah, okay. They'll shift, they wanted to move to the date line which should align them with New Zealand.
China and other places in Asia, they technically had to move to the other side of the Dateline. So the Dateline technically had to be redrawn so it went on their West earlier, the read the date line now had to be on the East they are In the west of the Dateline. Oh, okay. Okay. So the way at the end of Thursday, 29th, December 2011, some more continued directly to Saturday, the 31st December 2011 and there was no Friday that you have for on the 30th of December for someone's.
This is just I think the reasoning. Is interesting in and of itself, but the fact that this gift today is pretty cool. I like that. Just yes, not having one whole day. Yeah. Okay. Okay, I have a question regarding dates and times which I will reserve for another episode not for this one, but today, I will also go somewhere something related to history. Let's say history and geography, right? So Muhammad's Amidala. Is dr. Ambedkar like figure for Pakistan as he helped them draft
their constitution. He is also remembered for the free for one of his strange translations of the Quran. Even though he lived in Paris for a long time. He never took French citizenship for the French classified him as a refugee and he remained the last citizen of his erstwhile state. Where was he from? Wow, Okay, could you repeat some of the key details?
Okay, so Mama da middle. Ah, one of the architects of the Pakistani Constitution, he stayed in France for a long time classified as a refugee and the French considered him as one of the last citizens of his erstwhile State. I will add one more Point Key was a citizen of the state when he went to the UN and while he was there in became he no longer became a citizen of that particular state. Okay, so I would assume it is some state which cease to exist.
I would want to guess. Hyderabad, was he under there, you're on a roll today as it is Hyderabad. Okay, so if for those who did not know, Hyderabad was one of the princely states, it was quite a large State.
I think approximately the size of France itself, it will huge state of one of the richest states in the world and And the Indian army annexed Hyderabad from the nawab of Hyderabad, the nizam of Hyderabad. Sorry just after just after Independence mr. Hameed, the law had gone to the UN to argue the case for about the when it was annexed and that state became one that no longer existed and then he was on the refugee status in France, for some time.
Before, I think he then this I'll have to fact-check, but I think he left for Pakistan. After that. Okay, yes, you're a roll today, too. All right, let me ask my question, which planet is the closest to the earth? Okay, so this is definitely a trick question, okay? Which planet is closest to the earth. I'm tempted to say Mass, but I'm guessing it's enough Source. It is not Mars.
Yeah, it's not - it's not much. Okay, so then logically, the next answer should be Venus, but I'm guessing you're going to say of source. It's not Venus, it's not technically, it's not Venus, okay? So unless there is a planet that you, okay, is the moon classified as a protoplanet because of its size know, No no planet planet a protoplanet closest. Okay? Now okay. Maybe. Are you two saying closest in terms of distance or closest in terms of size or closes it in
terms of the ability? Just, yeah. In terms in terms of the number of letters in the name or alphabetically? No, no. Okay. Let me let me let me put it this way. So you are, are you asking about the closest? Terms of distance in the orbital plane of the solar system or in some others above and below kind of thing. Orbital plane orbital plane. You are right. Your, of course.
You now that I've asked this question, it's obvious that I'm trying to get at something interesting and perhaps not very directly intuitive. So Venus and Mars are ruled out because of it there's a good intuitive answers. Yeah. The caveat of Hap's. The little bit of the work that I am talking about is not what you have gotten yet, but you are right, there is something specific that. I'm asking, you're not considering large asteroids to be protoplanets either.
No, no, it is one of the eight planets, it's one of the eight planets eight planets in closest in distance in the orbital plane of the solar system. I'm sorry that you cannot have any other planets knows. I was thinking maybe you were thinking of Pluto, which had this eccentric orbit. So if you may be measured from a different plane, that, that would be the closest. But no, I am sorry.
But if there are no other planets on the orbital plane, which are closer than either Venus or Mars, let me give you the small caveat in the question. Let's see if we can figure it out from there. Venus does get closest to the Earth, but isn't always the case. Oh, so your answer is, there is no one planet Which is closest to the earth at any given time. No. There is obvious One Planet. There is one planet, but it's changes keep changing.
So yes. So what would you then say is a general answer to the closest planet? To the Earth is whichever, is the closest to the point that pretty. Okay, let me let me be most because we don't want it to be time. I'm specific the question. Would then be slightly refreshed to on average which planet is closest to the earth on average. Yeah. Then it would be Mars. It Isn't So they don't. Well, it is to be fair to you
completely for the longest time. People assumed Venus would be the answer to even the second question. But it was discovered not too long ago that no business. Or some new math that people discovered helped us. Realize that meanness is not the answer to that question. And neither is Mars. There is Master. Okay, now that release time is me how I will tide relock with some other planet, so that when the hell out of the way, now we're not tightly lock that. That's a great guess, by the
way. But no, we're not tightly locked. This answer would remain the same regardless of what planet. I asked you. The only planet that would fit. That criteria would be Mercury. Mercury moves around the Sun so fast, that it gave me practically no difference. You are right. Mercury's orbital radius is so small as compared to the other massive orbital radii of the other planet that on average. It turns out from any Planet, you measure Mercury is always
the clothes. So it's Not just now it's Mars Venus it's Jupiter Saturn Neptune. Uranus which ever one you measure from Mercury on average is always the closest to them nice because then the plants are apart. They're so apart that on the other end of the astronomical distances as we call them. Yeah. That's that's that's a very good question that the very unfairly phrased, but still, very good question. It had to be bad, but yes, you do. You got there.
Nobody another that attacker of question. I am definitely stealing that. Okay, I am now going to go to Linguistics in linguistics prosthesis is the addition of a sound or syllable at the beginning of a word without changing its meaning, or structure, the Wikipedia entry for this prosthesis in linguistics describes a prosthesis for several languages, including Including the usage of English words. By the speaker's of a certain language in India. How exactly is this prosthesis
explain? The language will be the true. So if you are, if you want. Okay, so you didn't give me. Yes. But these are the Indian. Yeah, it's an Indian language. So the prosthesis is the addition of a sound or syllable at the beginning of the word without changing its structure or meaning. And one of the examples given is the usage of English words by speakers of a certain language in India, actually more than one language. Sorry. You said at the beginning of the word, right?
Yes, you add, you know, a sound or a syllable at the beginning of a word. Interesting. So is it it's a silent prefix or am I misunderstanding it? No, no, it's not silent. You do actually pronounce it, but it doesn't change the meaning. Nor does it change this? Structure. What do you mean by structure? Like the spelling of the word doesn't change? Yeah. So you would still write it with its Actual spelling, okay? But when you say it, you say it with an additional syllable or
sound. I have no clue here, so I'm going to make a guess, okay? So I'll give you the there are examples in other languages as well, in India, in many different languages. But I think the primary one that you might have word, And that most people would have heard, especially for those in India is kindy so the usage of certain English words in Hindi ends up using this prosthesis certain English words in Hindi. If I Hindi speakers, let me be more specific by Hindi speakers. Yeah.
Okay, I figured that I was assuming it has something to do with the accent and the way Hindi speakers speak English. Yeah, you wouldn't be wrong. This probably is feels like it's not the right answer but I'm just going to say it. Is it something like, say a word like phone but then you spell you you pronounce the p and the H separately is that something no, no, no successive inch of prosthesis is like the literal meaning of the word process is something that the added on it
is added. All right, okay. Now then I am kind of drawing a blank, okay? I don't know how to give an additional clue for this. Hmm. Okay, let's just say think of certain English words, very common English words, which when a Hindi speaker, native Hindi speakers is it. They might add a sound or a particular letter or syllable to that to the beginning of that, and it doesn't change the
meaning at all. It's still an English word, and you write it in Hindi, also, without that additional sound, but when they say it, they say it with the rotational. Sound interesting so they don't change the spelling and but it's just said with that sound. I cannot think of a single example that would fit the bill. I can get you three right now. Okay, maybe lead me to the word without giving me the word.
I don't know, I'm trying. Okay, so now if I tell you the word guarantee you will get it in two seconds. But yeah. So let's start with one word. School is cool. So like and I that you put exactly. Yes. Yes. So when native Hindi speakers they add, I to several English word. So it's special is school station later. Okay, that is called in linguistics. It's called a prosthesis Oh okay there's an actual word for that.
Is there a reason that we do it? Because of course now it's not just if it's not a phenomenon that restricted to Hindi, there are many different examples in many different words, I know that there are certain examples in Malayalam is well certain dialects of Malayalam parts of Kerala. Where people say who school instead of solving a new school There is a you rather than I write some imagining something like this has some basis in how the language structure exists.
Perhaps vs, any speakers and I have a tendency to not start words with all. The esker sound is weird for a so we we put a syllable before that to make it easier for us to say it. I don't know, I'm just making wild guesses here but ya know that there are these English words as for foreign to To Native Hindi speaker. So these kind of additions make it easier for them to pronounce
the word. Would that then be the reason that so many Hindi names when anglicized had an R sound added to the end because to an English speaker ending a ram Rama Ram at sounded stranger was no no I think that that that that I think would have to come from the Sanskrit version because The Sanskrit version would be Rama but sanskritization still drama, right? It's all right. So there is no idea n, which means that there is some adding
that is a more often. Again, we both are not linguists here so they probably just yeah, we were basically candles in the wind right now. It's conjecture happening, but I also interesting. Okay, little quirks of language.
I love that. So there are a lot of examples in Slavic languages in in Persian languages in Hindi some of the Semitic languages Turkish even Latin apparently but since I don't speak Latin it's very difficult for me to understand how that would change it, the dead language, nobody speaks
already. I was just going to say and maybe I should have saved this for the end of the episode but I will say it. Now before you said, add it to the front, I was going to say, if it can be added any point lot of in these speakers, just put a rhyming. Like a Chili shy but the yes. Yes. The pretty good. Like ice cream by scream School wool. My Hindi teachers. Not that they're listening to. This would probably kill me for
not remembering this. But I remember there is a term for this and we were taught it in School soshi, Mom. I'm very sorry. I don't remember exactly what it is called. Okay. I'll admit I'll add it in the facts. If I find it. Yeah no but it is there is it there is an actual term for it and we were taught that you know, it can be done but it's not not used in formal situations, you can only use it in formal situations and there was a whole thing behind area you're adding something and your
you won't write it ever. You want right biscuit biscuit, but you do say? And it doesn't change the meaning, doesn't equal the same at all. Okay, cool. That was a mouthful. Yes, let's move from there to something that it's one of the best Segways ever. Okay, Hanson Gregory and American invented this food item, looking of mouthfuls, he invented this food item in 1847, he claims to have invented
rather. When he was aboard, a lime trading ship, as a sixteen-year-old aborting about a what lime training, so lines Limes. Okay. As in the fruit are. Yes. Okay lime training ship ship when he was 16 years old. Okay, I did not like the consistency of the pre of the existing food product of so he modified it into the version that we know it now, okay? With me so far. Yes. So this fellow what was his name again? Hanson and Saint Gregory and sin Gregory.
Okay. He was a sailor around 16 years of age on a ship specifically. A lime trading tip. While I'm reading part is not very relevant. Oh but yes, it is trading ship. Okay. So he was on a trading ship, there was a receiver serving some sort of food. Didn't like the consistency. So in 1847, he made something some kind of dish. Yes, yes. Okay, I'm with you so far. Okay. So he changed the shape of it and this allowed the change in shape allowed for it to be more
consistently cooked. So the problematic consistency was in the center, but have behaving change the shape, it allowed for it to be more even Only cooked and that to him was a much more desirable outcome. You you're smiling service. Umm you know, but before you let you crack this question, I am going to complete this question because it also has to do with the ease of eating this while he was navigating the ship while he was at the wheel of the ship, okay.
The second part doesn't Lend itself to me, guessing it, but the first part where you mentioned, he's of cooking where it's cooking evenly, especially when you have something enter. The first thing you do, is what you create a hole in the center that leads me to come to two guesses. The first of which is the Madhubala, but since he is American, I'm not going to give that as the answer and the second obviously, would then be a donut, you are absolutely,
right. Donut, the other reason that the navigating ship thing was at the wheel. Apparently, the donut was easy to and convenient to put on one of the real advantages across the board. It makes sense that it was a teenager who invented this and came up with that particular usage. Yeah, makes sense right. So anyways it is to clarify the
donuts. In terms of what the recipe calls for and how it tastes is something that has existed for many, many centuries, it isn't as recent as 1847 in various cultures that has existed but in 1847 Gregory hands and has claimed to have come up with the idea of punching a hole in the center. And he says that use the ship's tin pepperbox. Now I'm not sure what how he used it in Little Boxes. But that's only the Andy later. Apparently, taught this technique to his mother as well.
So his mother used to make these deep-fried dough thingies, and he realized that using his whether it could be done better. So that's how the iconic donut shape apparently came to be. No, I like that story. Okay, so I am going to put this question to you on 20th. September 1878 X was founded. By what was one what was then known as the triplicane 6 consisting of for law students and two teachers on a borrowed capital of one rupee, and 12 or Nah.
This was the first of its ilk in India to have a website in 1995 and it was established to protest the policies of the British. Raj, what am I talking about? The founding of 1878. Yes. It the founding was 1878 by six people who came to be known as
the triplicane six. It was founded to protest the policies of the British Raj and it was the first of its ilk to have its own website in 1995. First of itself, being maybe the the type of website was if I do can be one of the first websites No, turn on one of the first trips, a this x does entity X which was founded by this. This was the further.
This entity was the first of its ilk to have its own website and this was meant to protest the British Raj the policies of the British Raj. Yes. So I'm inclined to think something along the lines of Journalism. Hmm. You would not be wrong. Okay, I don't think that's the origin for the times of India. It's not the times of India. It's not the times of India. I don't think Indian Express, is that old neither do I know. Is it a ongoing? Yes, yes. Yes. Very much so very much so. Okay.
It's an ongoing late 90s and the 32 thousands are quizzes, would definitely remember this because this particular publication had their own quite prestigious quiz. Is honestly the Hindu. Yes, it is the Hindu. So it's been so a little bit of history about the Hindu. It is, it started off as a weekly in 1878, and then it became a daily in 1889. Okay. It was the second. Most circulated english-language newspaper in India, after the times of India, okay?
It has been family owned since 1995 when it was purchased by. The story wrong guy, Anger from the original Founders. And now, it's the kasturi family. Which holds the, you know, the which owns the newspaper, the triplicane six, the people who the revolutionaries who started is a for law students and two teachers for posterity will be naming them here. TT rangachari RPV rangachari.
Ah, DK, several panthulu and Subaru panthulu and G subramanya are along with em. Veera recover, we recover terrier and they started in order to support the campaign of Sir, T muthu Swami are for a judgeship at The Madras high court and to counter the campaign against him.
Being carried out by the anglo-indian press, it has a very rich history, the Hindu newspaper has a very rich history and it's also considered as one of the, you know, newspapers of record in India for those Don't know, newspaper of record is a major new large newspaper with a national presence. In the large circulation, whose editorial and newsgathering functions are considered to be authoritative and independent write the code. That's the founding of the Hindu newspaper.
So I guess we are down to the last question of this episode with you as. Yeah, let's do that. Let's do something alcohol-related. Oh, always fun. Yeah. Do you know what? And I use the word cocktail a bit Loosely here. Okay. What the cocktail three wise men has, what does it have as in? You're asking about the ingredients. Yeah. So three wisemen, I would say frankincense myrrh and but then obviously wouldn't put that in drinks form. Guess what?
Now, Give me the wise men of, obviously, is a reference to the Magi the biblical. Yeah, magi the wise men. Okay, I need some sort of a clue here, okay? So when I said, I use the word cocktail Loosely, it's because cocktails technically the technical definition of cocktail needed to have certain things in it. And while this drink three wise, men is informally called a Cockerel. It does not mean the usual definition. Nishan as it only has alcohols, but it doesn't have any other ingredients.
