Ep. 337: Game On, Suckers! MeatEater Trivia X

like yeah, this positive. I feel like we can speak. It's definitely a younger crowd. Yeah, a lot younger. Now Clay is the only person who is undefeated at Trivia. He has played once and he's won once. How does that feel? Man? It feels great to be on top of the mountain man. Now, Clay, I tell you secret, keep between us. Don't tell Steve or Cal and Mark. But I think Bear Grease is the best podcast Meat Eater has. Yes, thank you it is. I mean thank you,

that's right. You were. You were giving me a preview before the show of what's to come on Bear Grease next few months. Tell these listeners what they can expect dah, you you want me to go into the details, not that amount of detail. I podcast right now, jas not here I can talk. So we're doing a We're gonna do a series on some of Arkansas's most notorious turkey poachers of all time. The guys that I they were

much older than me. They were my father's age, but I grew up with them and they they just in the last year, the last brother. It was two brothers. One of them passed away and it's pretty incredible story. Interviewed the game wardens that chase them, interviewed their family. And the wild part is Janest Hotelus is You're going to have a hard time being endeared to these men. I'm gonna leave it right there. That's a good tease. Now we are also joined by Gabby Wilson. This is

her first time in the show. Gabby, tell folks what you do here at Meat Eater. I am the social media coordinator. What does that mean? I coordinate the social media schedule posts. I actually worked pretty closely with Misty Newcome in the Wild and whole team and schedule posts for them and work with the content over there. So yep, Gabby, welcome to the show now. If you're not familiar, this is a ten round quiz show with questions or out

of meat eaters for verticals, what are they? Yanni, hunting, fishing, eating, and conservation. That's right, and there is a prize. Meat eater will donate five hundred dollars to the conservation organization of the winners choosing. So far we've had Steve win five times, Brody win four, and Clay, Seth, Jannis and Karin each win once. So you're gonna have a first time winner or a second time winner today. No Steve

or Brody eat. But do you have the stats as to like what their race from wins to how many times they've played? By far in first place? If we're taking ratio because Steve, so you're saying Steve's played a lot more, well, ratio would be Clay Nukam who's played on Yeah, I know, so where where then does that? I think? Then I think we'd have Brodie Henderson next. So even though Steve's got one more win, Brody's done it in less tribes. That's right now today in the room.

Besides Clay and Gabby, we also have be honest Boutellis Ryan Callahan, Seth Morris, Crin Schneider, and Rick Hutton. I'm thinking with this crew, it's gonna take like six correct answers to win. So it's gonna be the bar. Now we have some housekeeping. Is that a dig? No? No, no, not a dig at all? Not? How do you go about that, Gabby? It's gonna take six to win with this crews and interpret that. For me, it as much about the questions as it is about the group answering them. Now,

how do you how are you forming these questions? Do you do you take to account the people that are in the room. Sometimes if we have a guest, I will, but no one in this room counts as guest. So these are just straight up meat eater. Four vertical questions. Now we have some house community, get you. We previously talked about who sings to Dirty Point Buck? While many believe it's to Upers, it's actually Bananas at Large. The

Wisconsin band released that song in nineteen eighty nine. Also on a previous show, we had a question about what are the only states with a flathead catfish record over one hundred pounds. I was only looking at hook and Line records, which would make the answer Nebraska, Kansas, and Missouri. But if you factor in trotline records, then Oklahoma and Texas would be added to the list. Brodie nor Steve answered Oklahoma or Texas there so it wouldn't affect the

outcome of the game. And with that we are now onto meat Eater Trivia. Play the drop, Phil, Look, I need to know what I stand to win everything? How's that had just tend to win everything? Game on Suckers. Question one, as always, will be multiple choice. The topic is fishing. Which of these is not a crank bait color sold by Rappola? Is it pink squirrel, bleeding clown, root beer, Crawdad or patriotic Shad? Again, which of these is not a crank bait color sold by Rappola? Pink squirrel,

bleeding clown, root beer Crawdad or patriotic shad? Seth? How you feeling about this? MM? Actually not confident. And I spent a lot of time looking at I know I was after my little trip down the Yellowstone recently, I was buying and looking at crank baits and uh I didn't see half of those. Uh answers, does everybody have an answer? There's a lot of custom colors these days, so there's too many very as. It's like a horrible

math problem. Clay, I know you've only played once, but you're supposed to hide your answer, all right, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cow saying bleeding clown, Gabby saying bleeding clown, Clay saying bleeding clown, Crant saying bleeding clown, Rick saying bleeding clown, Seth saying pink squirrel, and Janna saying patriotic shad. Nobody said rup your crawdad. The correct answer is patriotic shad. No correct. Jannis got

it right, Jannie got it right. Other you. I guessed that, like I said, there was a couple that I hadn't heard recently being on there. That's a gutsy gas. I mean, you're attacking something patriotic mostly, but I figured it just depends on who I'm hanging out with. Actually, but uh no, because I figured that was like everybody would figure. Of course Rapala would have a patriotic shad. I bet you're

good at paper rock scissors. I bet you're good at paper rock scissors because scissors, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, because rock paper scissors, rock paper scissors. That's the way you play. No. But when you know what the guy's gonna do, so you calculate what he knows you're gonna do and you do something different. That's what Jones did. You see what I'm saying, the double cross. You threw me off with thee.

There goes six I needed to win. Other unique games from Apola include Hot Mustard, Caribbean Shad, Black Wonderbread, Green Tiger, Voodoo, Hayes, Demon, Juicy, Lucy, Blue Ghost, and my personal favorite, Moldy Fruit. You see some of those are the new custom colors, aren't they? A couple of them are new. Yeah, but the bleeding clown has been went round for a while. The biggest Walleye like clown I'm very familiar with, always like clown something.

Here's what Ropaula liked to do about six years ago. They took all of their classic colors and then they put a red bill on them and then called them bleeding blank. So that's where you get the bleeding Clown. We are now on the question too. The topic is conservation. This next great question comes to us via Brandon Heart. If you have a question you think is right for meat Eater trivia. You can send it to trivia at the meat eater dot com. America's last legally killed jaguar

was shot by a deer hunter in what state? America's last legally killed jaguar was shot by a deer hunter in what state? Some quick answers in the room, some meracing by Seth. I just erased my small answer made it bigger, so it's easier for you. There we go. That's how confident. That's courtesy. Right there is. Everybody have

an answer. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have cal saying Arizona, Gabby saying Florida, Clay saying Arizona, Corin saying Florida, Rick saying Texas, Seth saying Arizona, and Yannis saying in Arizona. Jannis is two for two. The correct answer is Arizona. Right. This jaguar was a male killed

in nineteen sixty five in Arizona's Patagonia Mountains. Although their distribution used to go as far east as Louisiana, as far west as California, and as far north as Colorado, it's believed the only ones left in America are in very southern Arizona. Hey, Hey, I'm gonna I'm gonna fill you in on the so I don't write in to correct you, Okay. Warrener Glenn in nineteen ninety six bade with his Mountain Lion Dogs in New Mexico, the first live documented jaguar. Like all the other jaguars they had

brought in dead up until that point. Call the Mountain Lion Dogs now, canty, they're jaguar dogs. Well they twice they have. He's bade two, but it was in New Mexico. I like it, photo of it. There have been a few killed since then in Arizona, but they were I think one was poached by a couple like teenage duck hunters, and then the other one was killed by a mountain lion hunter. I don't think he knew what he was shooting. Spencer. Do you know what the best movie of all time is? No?

What is it? Raising Arizona? There you go? Are you big nit cage fan? How can you not be? Come on? Bottomless talent? That's right? We are on your question three. The topic is foraging. What does the colorful acronym l b M stand for? In foraging? What does the colorful acronym l B M stand for in foraging. A quick answer from Ryan Callahan, But the rest of the room looks fairly stumped. Stump, it's a good mushroom, pund s l b M. Boy Korean gets start a fire with

that brain activity. Your cards hang now just a little bit. You know, you're just trying to be got through. It's not not a buddy's game around here. If you want to copy, so you can, because it is not right, Mine's not right. Does everybody have an answer? No, you're still guessing. You don't. You don't have to. Yeah, I'm just gonna take a pass you out, Ye, go ahead

and reveal your answers. We have Cow saying little brown mushrooms, Gabby saying light bright, blank, Clay saying behind many that's good. It's like CPR for mushroom. If that's not what it should be. One Karin saying something blossoming something, Rick without an answer, Seth saying little blue mushroom, and Jannie saying little brown mushroom. Jannis is three for three. The correct answer is little brown mushrooms. Really right there, right there?

Did your honest have ushroom's pluralized? I'm just I'm just saying I took the time to write in the mass thank you for filling in for Steve while he's not here. Now, this isn't a scientific term, but it's popular in the mushroom hunting community. LBMs are largely avoided by foragers because the group doesn't contain many choice edibles. Some LBMs are in the psychedelic category, while others can kill you. If you're new to foraging, it's best to just avoid LBMs altogether.

You even said the word mushroom after the question was asked. Steve would have chopped your head off. Oh yeah, that's because he's horribly insecure. It's got nothing to do with the game. That's just personal thing. We're onto question right. The topic is hunting. This next great question meter trivia with no Steve Vernilla aka roast step. You know what. I was pretty sure that's what he would evolve into. And here we are. How can we're not roast and

brody at all? It'd be over his head? Get it now? The topic is haunting. This next great question comes to us via Tom Marshall. If you have a question you think is right for Meat Eater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at the meat eater dot com. A bench leg deer is a hybrid of what two animals? A bench leg deer is a hybrid of what two animals? Bench bench, bench, b E N c H A bench

leg I've never heard of it? Nah, if me and Seth hadn't heard of it at A hybrid of a bench leg deer is a hybrid of what two animals. Nobody knew this one off the bat gonna be a lot of educated guesses in the room. M that doesn't make any sense. Damn, mine doesn't make sense either. I don't think mine's even possible. Game. I think about it a bench leg deer. I'm going off of regional colloquialism.

Does everybody have an answer? Ricky's furiously writing, Yeah, but you just write down two animals, but climent of abstract to the paper paper she's about to put out about these two drawing a picture of a bench bench leg deer. Is this possible? I don't know. We'll find out. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying a mule deer and a white tail, Gabby saying a coyote

and a deer. Clay saying a mule deer and a blacktail, Karns saying a moose and a deer, Rick saying a fallow deer and a mule deer, Said saying a white tail in a ka and Yannis saying a blacktail and a mule deer. Jannis is on fire, it is a black tail. And but that they're like, there's such a debate on in areas of whether it is a mule deer or a blacktail anyway that I said, Oh, that doesn't make any sense or too close most bench leg I even heard of, you know, mating, So oh really

not why they call them? Sorry, huh why do they call them? You know, I couldn't get to the bottom of why they call them that. Um I found I found a theory and a forum online. So you're going to accept all answers on those that there's something like a bench leg horse. Is that right? There's something like a bench leg horse that has like shorter legs and like more of a barrel like body. So that's where this comes from. I don't know, but I couldn't find

anywhere else. Now, most bench legs appear like furniture. Let's make most bench legs appear in the Pacific Northwest. While Boone and Crockett doesn't track bench leg records, Washington and Oregon kind of do. Both states have records for cascade blacktails, which are deer killed in an area where blacktail and mule deer herds overlap. We're onto question five. We'll get

a scoreboard update after this build the engineer. It's like in California, it's always like they really want it to be a blacktail, even though it looks very much like a mule deer, right, because it's going to score away more as a blacktail. Yeah. Yeah, it's either a kind of a small, okay mule deer or a giant exactly. You know, talking about mule deer. Every I think probably every community in the East where there's only whitetails has some story of mule deer being released back in the

forties and fifties. That sounds like an episode of bear Grease. Yeah, I've never thought of it before, but like there's guys that just swear to me that in the Ozarks they release mule deer like in the sixties, and there's probably you know, it's because somebody killed like a fourty G two book I Like It coming in September of twenty twenty two from the Bear Grease podcast. It'll be two minutes long. There we go, it didn't happen. It'll be my intro and then be saying this didn't happen. Roll

the ads and question five. The topic is gear. Nine states have an official state firearm name one of them. Nine states have an official state firearm name, one of them the state or the firearm the state. It's good question, Clay, name the state? Did you get it? You know this? No? I don't either. Does everybody have an answer? Now? Confidence, Well, there's fifty state, there's always there's always a state that is gonna be pretty heavily involved in pro gun type stuff. California,

you mean, don't give my answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have cal saying New York, Gabby saying Wisconsin, Clay saying Wyoming, Krin saying West Virginia, Rick saying Kentucky, Seth saying Pennsylvania, in Yana saying Texas. The correct answer is Alaska, Arizona, Indiana, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and West Virginia. That was your guest. As soon as you

have yes, do you know what they are? So the first state to do this was a Utah in twenty eleven, when it designated the M nineteen eleven pistol as its official state gun. Other notable state firearms include Kentucky and the Kentucky Long Rifle, Pennsylvania and the Pennsylvania Long Rifle, West Virginia and the Hall Model eighteen nineteen flintlock, and Alaska in the pre nineteen sixty four Winchester Model seventy. Oh shit, that's cool. What that was? Texas on the list?

Texas was on there. I think there's was a cult. Everyone certain is already five for five? What what I mean? And in nineteen eleven idea John Moses Browning is that it was from Utah. Yeah, definitely a Utah. There's the Browning Museums in Augutah. Browning was from Utah and he's burning firearms. That's why we got you here. You go, well, why didn't you have that? As a damn question Spencer and Utah again was the first day to do it in two thousand and eleven, so expect more states to come.

That's a curveball too, like twenty eleven. You think that would be older. But Phil hit us with a scoreboard update. Uh, let's see yet to put herself on the board. Gabby rounding up. Next, We got Corin and Rick with one. Then Seth and Cow and Clay all have two points. Good Gravy and man just just flying out there in the lead. Beat down, beat down. We'll see if we can trip them up. Question six. The topic is public lands. How many acres are in a section of land? How

many acres are in a section of land? Some very confident answers in the dream Cow, do you not know this? I already wrote my my numbers down very very quick answers again, how many acres in a section of land? I see we didn't choose the questions per the room today. Does everybody have an answer? Shoot? I hope it hadn't answer too quick. I may need to do some man, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying six forty, Gabby saying one hundred sixty, Karin saying twenty,

Rick saying sixty six forty, six forty. The correct answer is six forty would be the equivalent of sixty and a lot of plays spencer. What I was thinking, maybe it was a is it a what do they call a township? A township? I think there's thirty six six sections in a township. That's that's correct. Yeah, that's why I was thinking. A section of land is one square mile, a half section is three hundred twenty acres, a quarter section is one sixty, and a quarter quarter is forty.

This simple system was valuable to American frontiersman and surveyors who had a shaky grasp on mathematics. Run to question seven. The topic is conservation. This next great question comes. It was via Dolin Perry. If you have a question you think is right for meat Eater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at the meadeater dot com. What Canadian province has five of the top ten Boon and Crockett

entries for bighorn sheep? What Canadian province has five of the top ten Boon and Crockett entries for bighorn sheep? Not confident? This might be that now you're six for six, This maybe the one. There's just does everybody have an answer? Stevens here would be like, shut up, Clay, don't be saying, don't we give no hints, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have two cal saying Alberta, Gabby saying BC, Clay saying BC, Korean saying Manitoba, Rick saying Alberta, Seth saying BC,

and Janis saying BC. The correct answer is Alberta Hashtagberta. Of the top ten entries, five or from Alberta, four from Montana, and one is from South Dakota. Alberta's biggest sheep of all time was hit by a vehicle near long View in twenty ten. It's estimated that big Horn was fourteen years old. Now, Rick, did you really know that? Or no? It's pretty confident. Yeah, you know, when you're trophies stats, the age of the animals, not nearly is

interesting to folks who are into trophies. How old was your sheep on us? Nine or ten? Yeah? Nine, nine, you could be ten. Well, there a bunch Biolo just looked at it and they came up with answers between eight and ten. So I've landed on nine. But I would like to know how many inches of horn that

fourteen year old big horn? Ramhead, I don't not have that in you really, you've never you've never been in some trophy circles where that's kind of the number of trophy circles this circle me and yas like, how do you measure your white tailed deer? Is it by age? Typically? No, No, it's not. We're onto question. NK. We'll get that answer for you. The topic is cooking. We will get another scoreboard update after this. What French term roughly translates to

cute filet in English? Topic is cooking? What French term roughly translates to cute filet in English? Again, what French term roughly translates to ute? Guess only spelled it right? I'm changing.

We have Cal saying filet, Mignon, Gabby saying filet Mignon, Clay saying sue Flay, Krinn saying petite filet, Rick saying Suvid Seth saying am I am listen onion, and jan is saying filet me I meant. The correct answer is filet mignon. He can have it on the definition of filet mignon is a thick slice of beef cut from the narrow end of a beef tenderloin.

The term was popularized in the nineteen oh six book The four Million, which portrayed the cut of meat as a symbol of luxury and romance and blan that's like the most boy I am chunk of meat you can have. That's why they got to wrap it in bacon. Won't find me of ordering that. Phil hit us with a scoreboard update. All right, the only the only two left in it right now are a Yannis and cow because Jannis has seven cal has five, I think define left

in it. Like, what's your scenario? Well, if how many questions do we have? There's two questions left. So if Nis doesn't get them and you do, it's a tag game. It's a tie game. Yes, gang up. We could all gang up and try to throw Jannis off. Yeah, like like getting his head subject how many how many time breaker questions do you typically come equipped with four of them? We've never had to go beyond one, but I'm ready if we have. We've never gone beyond one. No, no way.

Do you use those same four every trivia? Yeah, they'll just carry over to the next one if we don't end up using any What a question nine? The topic is fishing.
