Ep. 370: Game On, Suckers! MeatEater Trivia XXVI

and platforms. So, um, I guess my favorite part that I do is anything dev related, So coding promo pages or do anything development related. And you left out that you're one of our fishiest people in the office, so much so that your dog's name is Tippet it is. You also drive the pickup in the parking lot that says five X on the license plate. I do, yeah, man,

anything related to fishing. Been on any adventures lately? I just got back from a five day trip in Montana and Idaho where we basically just chased trichos around both states and it was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. I edited a few and lost a few. Anybody else in this room get experienced chasing those. Do you know what a tricho is? An take your guess. We should use that for a question. What is it? Tricho is a very small aquatic insect is a black mai, So you gotta catch fish on

like sizeks. That was your first time doing it? I did it once last year, but this is my first time dedicating more than one day to it. Did you break down and just put a giant hopper on? At some point? Hoppers in the afternoon, for sure, So I woke up for sundrise. And now if you're not familiar, this is a ten round quiz show with questions from meat eaters four verticals which are hunting, fishing, concertation, and cooking, and there's a prize. Meat eater will donate five hundred

dollars to the conservation organization of the winners choosing. And each week here on Meat eat to Trivia, we reveal a new stat This week we're looking at player performance in the conservation category, which is our biggest and broadest topic. Brody is our best performer. They're getting fifty eight percent of conservation questions correct. That's followed by Steve with col With and Nice with They are the only players that get over half of their conservation questions right, and amazingly,

they're all within four percentage points of each other. It's kind of like we hang out together, and this is a big sample size. This is like over a hundred questions that have gone into this. So I think cow would like to see that percentage a lot higher than it is. Oh, I don't think anybody here has done growing that's right now. In the previous game of trivia, I brought up how I'm uninspired by the progress of Crazy Horse, a mountain monument under construction in the Black

Hills National Forest. Stephen Brodie were dismissive of me being dismissive, so I wanted to use this chance to give everyone a Crazy Horse update. The Crazy Horse Memorial has been in progress since nineteen forty eight, even though the man who designed it estimated it would be done in thirty years. For comparison, Mount Rushmore, which sits seventeen miles away, took fourteen years to create from start to finish, So what's

taking so long? Well, unlike Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse is on private land and use its private funding, and they'd like to keep it that way. Despite multiple offers from the government to help. And here's why I'm a skeptic

of the whole project. Crazy Horse was originally meant to be a dedication to Native American tribes and honor the hardships they've endured, but as Business Insider reported in eighteen, the family who owned it makes nearly thirteen million dollars a year off of tourists, with little progress actually being made on the mountain. Jim Bradford, a Native American state senator, told the publication, quote, all of a sudden, one non

Indian family has become millionaires off our people. So if Crazy Horse has ever completed and really becomes the world second tallest statue, I'll give it the credit it deserves. But until then, consider me a crazy Horse cynic. So there you go, Bro, Do you feel any different about Crazy Horse now? M m, not really something? It looks cool. It does look cool. I'll give you that. It's something

I'd like my kids to see. Yeah, maybe their grandchildren will see and you can tell them the whole story about capitalism, sure, or I could tell him the story about Crazy Horse. There you go. You should tell them both how far away from completion are they? Oh? Not? Not even close. They have his face done. Um, and when it's done, I think it will be they said the second tallest statue in the world, only beat by one in India. I believe right now they just have

his face. I think they hope in the next fifteen years to have like his hair done and maybe his arm that's pointing. Um. But I don't know about so a privately funded project is taken longer than the government funded project it is. I'm not saying this is a situation. We're like, hey, we're the government, We're here to help. Um. But I imagine this would be a different conversation if this wasn't a family who was like kind of raking it in um and not really going anywhere. Million bucks

a year. I'm sure they're like, yeah, sticks and stones, sticks and stones. Now, the Shelby index for this round is three, so our winner should get about six. Right. It is a difficult batch of questions. And with that we're on the Meatiator Trivia play the drop fill. Look, I need to know what I stand to win everything. I'm saying, just tend to win everything, sus. Question one, the topic is hunting real quick. Do you think we could have that cute little girl also record her saying

we Phil could record her saying suck it, browdie. At some point, she's probably come close to saying that before. Yeah, just keep a microphone around her long enough, it'll happen. Question one. The topic is hunting, and as always, this will be multiple choice. Who said this quote? If some animals are good at hunting and other animals are suitable for hunting, then the gods must clearly smile on hunting. Is it Stephen Hawking, Fred Bear, Aristotle or Ted Nugent?

Here's the quote again. If some animals are good at hunting and other animals are suitable for hunting, then the gods must clearly smile on hunting. Is it Stephen Hawking, Fred Bear, Aristotle or Ted Nugent? Yanni, you got a grin on your face? What's going on over there? I have no clue with the animal. If some animals are good at hunting and other animals are suitable for hunting, then the gods must clearly smile on hunting. Does everybody

have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying Fred Bear, Logan sang Ted Nugent Brodie sang nugent, Sean saying Aristotle, cal saying Aristotle, jan Is saying the nude, and Tressa saying ted nugent. The correct answer is Aristotle. The gods part threw me off. I was like, yeah, yeah, is kind of religious. I don't now, I think not. Although Ariston Bottle is most famous for his work in philosophy, he was also considered one of

the fathers of biology and zoology. His greatest contribution to conservation was being the first person to attempt to classify animals into groups according to behavior and physiologies. We've come back from Aristotle supports hunting. That's good enough for me. Question to the topic is cooking. What state produces of America's farmed and wild caught crayfish? What state produces nine of America's farmed and wild caught crayfish? Cal? What gave it away to you on that last one that it

was Aristotle? Just just the structure of the quote felt old. Not necessarily old, I guess, but it just seemed familiar in that way. I guess I categorized it and placed it into a group. It wasn't the Stephen Hawking and does everybody have an answer for which state produces nine of America's farmed and wild caught crayfish. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying Louisiana, Logan saying Alabama.

Brody not showing me his answers, says Louisiana. Shawn saying Louisiana, Louisiana, Louisiana, Louisiana. They got it. The correct answer is Louisiana. Crayfisher also commercially harvested in Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and the Carolinas, but none of them holding candle to Louisiana. It's estimated that the crayfish industry in the Bayou state employees about seven thousand people and injects three d million dollars into

the state's economy. Seven thousand, seven thousand people. A lot. That's where it's all coming from, a lot of people. Question three, the topic is conservation. This is our listener question of the Week, which was won by Brad Rice for sending this great question. Brad is going to get a Cow's Weekend Review hat signed by cal If you want a chance to win our listened question of the week, then Send your question to Trivia at the meat eater

dot com. America's thirty third president, who was in office from nineteen forty five to nineteen fifty three, is credited for creating the Bureau of Land Management? Who was that president? America's thirty third president, who was in office from nineteen forty five to nineteen fifty three, is credited for creating

the Bureau of Land Management? Who was that president? I really like these pens, by the way, Yeah, new and improoved pens is the conservation Questions and two term or and the listener is getting a Cow's Weeken review signed hat Cow. Do you know this one? It's super easy as long as you memorize all of our presidents and know where they're rank. You know. Does everybody have an answer? No? Do you have one yet? Logan? I wrote one down, but I'm very not confident on just coming up with

something right now. I put down the only president I could think of that anything to do with conservation, So hopefully it's that heavy hint there by Logan, Y, you got an answer, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying eisenhowerd Logan saying Roosevelt Brodie saying Hoover, Sean saying Truman, Cal saying Truman, Janice saying Garfield, and Tress is saying Bush. The correct answer is Truman. Well done, Cal and Sean was a tough one. Thanks for the dates.

The Truman administration created the Bureau of Land Management in nineteen six while going through an agency reorganization, he combined the General Land Office US Grazing Service to make what we now know as the BLM. How confident were you on that one, Sean and Cal? Did you like know it know it? Wow? Because you knew the thirty third president YEA for the years. Question for the topic is biology. What Southeast Asia country is home to the Komodo dragon?

What Southeast Asia country is home to the Komodo dragon? Quick answers again, Sean at Cal, you boys know this one. Yeah, Yeah, I'm sticking with my answer to I'm second guessing myself. But it turns out there's a lot of Southeast Asian countries. Punch. I can't phone a friend or anything now now I keep that computer closed. Now, I'm totally second guessing myself. What Southeast Asia tree is home to Komodo dragons? Does everybody have an answer? I do, dress so you're gonna

create one. Just take a just any Asian country you can think of. Yeah, I believe Mongolia as a Asian country. Russia to give it a shot. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying Philippines, Logan saying Thailand, Brody saying Philippines, Sean saying Indonesia, cal saying Japan, Jana saying Japan, and Tresses saying Mongolia. We do have a

correct answer in the room. It's Indonesia. See. Biologists used to think that komodo dragons are a modern species that evolved from monitor lizards so that they could eat pygmy elephants, but more recent fossil discoveries indicate that komodo have actually been around for about four million years, and that they did a lot of island hopping between Australia and Asia. Today, they're only found in Indonesia, where it's speculated that they

arrived about nine hundred thousand years ago. Cool question five. The topic is woodsmanship. This next great question comes to us via Josh ring Smooth. If you have a question you think is right for meat eat to trivia you can send it to Trivia at the meat eator dot com. What is the phenomenon related to hypothermia victims in which bodies are found either partially or completely undressed? Oh? Can

you repeat that question? What is the phenomenon related to hypothermia victims in which bodies are found either partially or completely undressed? This is question five. So we'll get a scoreboard update from Phil after this. I have a hard time understanding the question, what is the phenomenon related to hypothermia victims in which bodies are found either partially or completely undressed? Brody? You know this one. I do, but it's not coming to me. Can we explain the phenomenon?

Or you need to know the names? Got a name? Got a Name's got a name? Does anybody know this? Mhm? Brody's breaking down. The hem oculus is working hard for Brody. I've never seen him this stressed hat, pulled down, slumped over in his chair. Steve has talked about this many times before. It's in our wilderness skills and surviving now. Yeah, so it's like very embarrassing that I can't think, I mean, very familiar. But I had no idea that that got a name has a name? Does everybody have an answer?

Who's going to come up with one? Go ahead and reveal your answer is. We have Corey saying tripping Logan without an answer, shown without an answer, cal saying hysteria, Janice saying hyper hot. Press that without an answer. Nobody got it. The correct answer is paradoxical undressings. This happens when people with prolonged exposure to freezing conditions start to hallucinate. Rather than feeling extremely cold, they start to feel warm and take off their clothes. They actually feel hyper hot.

Studies have shown that between twenty and fifty of hypothermia cases have pterodoxical undressing. That's just something that people came up with because they're forced to be in a room for too long together. Like we got a name, it's a good name like that. Yeah, I think Corey's answer was Actually probably the closest is tripping Judges doesn't give the scoreboard up date. We are halfway through the game of trivia. Sure thing, Logan dove has he got to

get himself on the board. That's fine though, it's got a great spirit. We've got Brody, Corey, Janice and Tressa all with one point apiece. Ryan Callahan has three points and Sean Weavers in first place with four points. Separating yourself from the room. Here another blowout, halftime blowout. I'm not confident though.

LLL being LLL being they got it. You know I gave it away from me? Was it was? That was the year I had nothing to do with Leon Leon Leon sold his first one hundred pairs of boots by obtaining a list of main hunting license holders and sending them flyers. He promised that if they weren't satisfied with the boots purchased from him, he'd give them their money back.

This resulted in him refunding of his customers when the rubber boots developed tracks, but he overcame that initial hiccup and went on to create one of the biggest outdoor retail companies in the world. What's it called Leon Leon Wood Bean? Question seven? The topic is haunting. This next great question comes to us via John Ryan. 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. Wasn't he just in a TV show? Yeah?

Janice saying Australia and Antarctica. Trust that doesn't have an answer. The two continents are Australia and Antarctica Australia, Cale, tell me about that Hawaii answer. I don't know. I just stuck in my head. I don't know. But that's not a continent. What do we

agree that's not a continent? Ye's all right. Despite not having any native deer, Australia does have six introduced species. Those deer are fallow deer, red deer, sambar deer, rusa deer, hog deer, and access Dear. Question eight, the topic is biology. What is the formal name for a scientist who works with insects? What is the formal name for a scientist who works with insects? It's very confident answers so far. Logan, how you feel about this one? I'm thinking about adding

an ologist to the end of something. I'm not gonna tell you what. Okay, yeah, I need you know this one? I think so okay, Sean, who I think is our leader appears as though you know this one too. I'm going with my gut. Now I'm second guesting myself, but I think I know it. This is question eight. Will get a scoreboard update after this. It just allows my brain. I can't think pass that last question. This is like something I squarely no, and I just it's I'm gerna blink.

Sean Weaver is our winner today. Yeah, he's got He's got seven points and the next players behind him are Janice Calum Brodie with four points apiece. My goodness, Well and see if he can run up

the score here. Well, hold on, he could not get the next three left. Come on, let's do three. No moneyball in this game. Question nine. The topic is hunting. Queen Elizabeth came under controversy in two thousand when she was caught on camera ringing the neck of what animal? Queen Elizabeth came under controversy in two thousand when she was caught on camera ringing the neck of what animal? Now the category is what hunting? Did that question make

it in because of her being in the news this week? Yes, it would would not have otherwise she did make some headlines. Folks are talking about her. What I know the answer if I had read the Mediator article yesterday. Maybe Queen Elizabeth came under controversy in two thousand when she was caught on camera wringing the neck of what animal? Is it bad that I thought some of the the memes and videos of like Prince Princess Diana waiting at the

gates of Heaven, We're just hilarious. It's fine. I understand she's a invisive character. My favorite was I saw someone say um that she was a devout cousin to her husband, which is true. It was a third third cousin that she married. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying snake, Logan saying pheasant, Brodie saying pheasant, Sean saying peasant, kelsang snow leopard. I would love to see it, Jana saying pheasant, and Tresses

saying turkey. The correct answer is snow leopard. No, it's hey, I got a point. Local tabloids declared her the killer Queen for this act and all her quote absolutely disgusting. She didn't acknowledge the controversy, but the day after the story dropped, she showed up in church wearing a hat decked out in pheasant feathers, which was basically a big

old Michigan hello to her critics. For more on the queen and her hunting exploits, read Jordan Stiller's article on the meat eator dot com called was Queen Elizabeth to a badass hunter? I'm having a real hard time coming up with what organization Sean's gonna donate. We got one question left we can find out after that question ten. The topic is fishing. This next great question comes to is via Jackson Phillips. If you have a question you think is right for Meat Eat Trivia, you can send

it to trivia at the meat eater dot com. What is the name of the tool that fly tires used to hold a spool of threat in place? Thank you? What is the name of the tool that fly tires used to hold a spool of threat in place? Sean? Would you say this is your weakest category fly fishing specifically? Probably yeah?

and guess. Right behind the wings, off their off their ass, on their preening gland, in between the preening, just above their branding, somewhere on that back end. Does everybody have an answer for what the name of the tool is that fly tires used to hold a spool of thread in place? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Corey saying a bobbing Logan saying nips, Brody saying bobbing, Sean without an answer, Cal saying bob, and Janice saying bob,

and Intrestas saying vice. The correct answer is bobbing. Sean is our winner seven or eight authoritia on what I considered to be a tough round of questions. So, Sean, what happens next is you decide where the five donation goes. So what's it going to be? Finally I get to donate to Delta Waterfowl? Is that what you expected? Brodie? Ah, you know that our Ducks Unlimited? Why why Delta? What do you like about them? Well? I like both, um,

But Delta Waterfowl is just taking a different approach. You know, land management with waterfowl is multifaceted. Ducks Unlimited focuses way more on just increasing the number of acres in duck production, and Delta focuses on doing more with those acres, so lots of predator trapping and uh, you know, making good with those acres, making sure we're hitting the the fifteen ducks are show some of those guys. Yeah, good way to put it. Well done, Sean. Congrats to Delta Waterfall.

I think that's maybe the first donation they've got from Meat Eater Trivia. And that's it for this episode. Join us next time for more Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins.
