Ep. 398: Game On, Suckers! MeatEater Trivia XXXIX

conservation organization of the winners choosing. But there's a twist for this week's very special show. This is our Christmas episode of Meat Eater Trivia. Steve asked me what that means? What's that means? I'm glad you asked. Well. On this week's show, all ten questions from our four verticals are holiday themed and after our regular the round of Trivia,

we're playing Christmas Family Feud. Now. Steve hated that game last year and even declared afterwards that we'd never do it again, but our audience loved it, so we're bringing it back. Don't remember what did I hate? About it. Um. It seemed as though you didn't understand it, and that made it less fun. And I think you said afterwards, let's not do that again. His team must not have one. His team did win, but they couldn't still like they

couldn't double their money in fast money. We'll see if you like it better this year, and then if that doesn't, know I didn't like it. Uh. Part of the reason I would like it is you stole family feuds idea. Oh yeah, why did I didn't come up with trivia either? No one. No one came up with trivia. It's like it'd be like coming up with watching the sunrise. Invented watching the sunrise. It's like, you can't invent trivia, but you can invent family feud. The fun thing with family feud, though,

is most folks already get it. It's like built in they know how to play. You can play along at home. We're gonna try it again this year, and if you're still against it, we'll never do it again. Okay, never say never. That's right. And here's what makes this Christmas episode extra special. We're going to potentially make our biggest

donation in Meat Eater Trivia history. There will be a five hundred dollar donation for the winner of Trivia, a five hundred dollar donation for the winner of Family Feud, and potentially an extra five donation if the winning Family Feud team is successful at Fast Money. So we'll potentially have a fifteen hundred dollar donation for conservation at the end of this show. That's already been approved by accounting department. I'm not just not just coming up that's right. That's right, Jesus.

What Steve just scribble on the back of his board, sucking Spencer, He's got a new line. That's uh, an empty board had already written that. So folks listening to this are gonna get to listen to a regular Trivia and a bonus family Feud. All this is a packed episode of Trivia, all Christmas theme. Now, we have some housekeeping to get to you before we play, and I have some good news and some bad news for Steve. In the spirit of Christmas, though I'm only going to

deliver the good news right now. We'll say the bad news for next week's episode because I don't want to ruin the holiday cheer. You get what was it? A correction that would have cost me a win. We're gonna talk about that right now. Ready, Okay, here's the good news. On episode three eight six of Meat Eater Trivia, I showed the room a stone tool and said it shares its name with a Star Wars character. The answer I

was looking for was mall, but Steve said hammer head. Now, some do refer to these tools as hammer heads, but there isn't a Star Wars character with that name, or so I thought. Four listeners wrote in to say that in the nineteen seventy seven Star Wars movie episode four A New Hope, viewers are briefly introduced to an alien species called Authorians, but they aren't identified as Authorians, and later on in this series, so as a placeholder, Star

Wars called them hammer heads on their merchandizing. Some of the only what I had, some of the only evidence of this is a nineteen seventies seven Star Wars action figure that is labeled as a hammer head on the package. It still my mom's attic think, So okay. So to Steve's credit, his answer satisfies both parts of the question. That stone tool can be referred to as a hammer head, and there's a Star Wars character with that same name, Steve,

you've been vindicated anyway. Well, now here's even better news for you. That episode ended in a tiebreaker between you and Janice, which Janice won. But since I'm retroactively giving you credit for a correct answer, then that would mean that you won the show outright, and we didn't need to go to overtime. So when you got to go gets back from that place, I don't need to give us money to I would guess, so changing the switch

it up every time the board. So in a mediator trivia, first I'm changed the stripping the hone of that hold one second here and giving no no, no, no, no no, you're the host, do whatever you want. I'd love you, Spencer, but listen. The hammer Head. It's first of all, it was it was a species character. It was a species. It's not their canonized name. And the character's name is no mon Na don or something like that. There's no

there's no character named hammer Head. It was a Star Wars action figure they put out and it says it says hammer Head right on it. This is egregious. I will not stand for this. I am going to allow it. I want to, uh, but how are you going to get your money back. Well, that part will not happen, but we're all about the end of the year and Spencer's buttering up his boss a little bit. That's resolutely here.

Where to keep these numbers? Uh, there are some under the board, and there's some in that bag, and we can also addressed. Yeah, that's the guy I have here. Is right on the packaging it says hammer So the only way you would know that is if your oldest ship. Because because a couple of years after that they were it was no longer called the hammer Head. He probably had the metal lunch pail with the character on it as well. Yeah, man, Phil, does that sound familiar to you?

The hammer Head? Like I brought up on the episode You find a simple you find a single case where Phil head my back on something. I had your back on that episode because I referenced Actually when Elliott does reference that character says that this is hammer Head. But that's not the character's name, and it's also not the species name. It was a confused merchandizing department in the seventies,

that's what that was. Steve gets his victory. Now, that was good news for Steve, bad news for Joannie I'm sorry. Can you do me the favor that let's go back and find out where he gave that money. We we can address that after the show, and we're going to call them up and say, sorry, we have this out. You might be having the new heart household might be lightening up on the Christmas. We're gonna make our own

Christmas presents because you got, you just got. You're gonna getting five bucks on the old next paycheck, and it'll be a nice explanation of Now you see, there's this Star Wars question and this stone tool that's ten thousand years old, Johnny, no comment, no comment. I wonder how often that happens to me. I'll pull it up. I'll bring it up four listeners, had your back, Steve uh and and all has been made right. And next week we will get to the bad news. Didn't want to

ruin the Christmas spirit? Am I going to going to adjust that? Now? The shell for this game is a three point five, so our winner should get about seven or right. And with that we're onto the game of trivia. Play the up l look, I need to know what I stay in the wind everything? How's just tend to win everything? Us? Question? One. The topic is conservation, and as always, this will be multiple choice. What state grows the most Christmas trees? Is it Oregon, North Carolina, Wisconsin

We have Steve saying Oregon, Dan saying with Scotts, and Hunter saying North Carolina, Hayden sang Wisconsin, Crin saying North Carolina, Maggie sang Wisconsin, Janice

saying North Carolina. The correct answer is Oregon. Damn it. I had that and erased it. Oregon harvests four point seven million Christmas trees each year. That's followed by North Carolina at four million, Michigan at one point five million, Pennsylvania at one million, and Wisconsin at seven hundred thousand. Kind of just looked this up the other day, and and is that how you knew it? Huh? Is that

how you knew this? Answer? No, already knew, Um, you know what I looked it up because you were Christmas tree hunt. Well, because I'm just I'm becoming like a Christmas tree enthusiast.

I'm gonna prune them and i'm gonna maintain about ten of them. And for Christmas presents, I'm gonna give out my way points. That's great. I like that, but I don't think people that appreciate as much if they have to cross a creek to do it. I saw the photo you had that you were. It's

gonna be like a treasure hunt. You're gonna get away point and it's gonna be like a logistical you know, and you're going to it's gonna be like the perfect tree there because I've been taken care of and you have one already for this year, already got mine for this shot. I would also like on X to create a fossil way point. I've been waiting on that. They have about fifty way points. Don't have one for fossils

yet though, HM now E College. Unfortunately, the ecologists are torn on the impact that Christmas tree farms have on the environment. While they use a lot of energy to harvest and transport trees and promote the used to pesticides, they also capture a ton of carbon dioxide, keep artificial trees out of landfills, and create edge habitat for wildlife.

The Wall Street Journal declared this the most annoying adult toy of all time, which was a popular gift for anglers in the early two thousand's. Karan Appears didn't know it? Wow.

Ok, how specific? Be specific? If I don't get the exact like brand name, right, am I gonna get in trouble brand? If if if you said, if you said like action figure, that wouldn't be right. But if you said, g I Joe, that's what I need? What Southern European country? Oh, I'm sorry,

I think those were all different. I don't like is Hayden's you rewrite it, but I don't want to see what you have. The correct answer here, you're here, you're the correct answer is big mouth billy bass.

I don't know if anyone wrote that exactly, but I think I think, I think we give it. Because we gave the Red Riders, we will give it to the folks. Maybe missed a couple of words, but until from the South talking with your taxes, there's several floating around your family exactly, and that would be a great white elephant gift. And you're just trying to add to your little cushion, huh, or cushion your little leaves. But I like talking. He

didn't talk. I understand you're one ahead, but KB toys and Spencer's Gifts said it was their most popular adult toy in two thousand and that new shipments always sold out within twelve hours. Amazon dot Com said that based on reviews, it is one of their most hated products of all time, along with the movie Show Girls and Ronald Reagan's biography My Mom has that thing hanging in her house man the book Ronald, I wouldn't be surprised if Phil.

Question nine. The topic is hunting. This holiday, which Britts celebrate on December is traditionally a day of fox hunting.

What is it? This holiday, which Britt's celebrate on December twenty six, is traditionally a day of fox hunting. What is it? Some quick answers and some non answers in the room. I think I got this one. Okay, Steve is just going to keep the perfect game going. But I get about perfect I almost you've come this far. I'm I'm kind of rooting for you. I hate to admit it. I'm getting like I'm not getting like I have it in my head and my homunculous isn't having

another idea. This holiday, which Britt's celebrate on December, is traditionally a day of fox hunting. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal? Oh no, go ahead, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Boxing Day, Dan without an answer, Hunter and Hayden saying Boxing Day, Karin saying King Day, Marge saying Boxing Day, and Jana saying Boxing Day. The perfect Game keeps going. It is

Boxing Day the United Kingdom. Tradition dates back to the fifteenth century, but it was banned there in two thousand four. Today's sportsman in the UK hold a simulated fox hunt instead. This is where someone drags artificial scent behind them and stays on the move until the hound catches up with them. At that point, the hounds are rewarded with treats, and then the hunt starts again. Each simulated fox Hunt lasts a couple hours. Fight for your hunting rights, folks, unless

you want to be run around the woods. The dragon sent and you know who I knew that. I used to hang out these Canadians and they always had a big old deal on Canadians, like and they like the Brits Question ten in boxing Day or they how that was called boxing day and that they're you know, they kind of modeled themselves in large measure after the old you know, our old enemies from the seventeen seventies. Question ten.

The topic is conservation. This type of caribou, which used to be found from Maine to Alaska, is considered the largest of the subspecies. This type of caribou, which used to be found from Maine to Alaska, is considered the largest of the subspecies. If Steve gets this right, he will have thrown a perfect game and gets to make a one thousand dollar donation. If he gets it wrong, though, we have a chance for overtime with Janice, well, and

we might need to step outside. Hey, not only like that, like in a fighting not a fighting way, just in a disgusting way. You don't want to do that for a tiebreakers farm ress This type of caribou, which used to be found from main to Alaska, is considered the largest of these subspecies. Oh is there Oh? Because everybody have an answer? Well, like how hip to you are? How hip? Well, I'll we'll talk about it. Let's see

how this goes. I don't think I got it wrong, by the way, but I think that you might be operating on dated. Does everybody have an answer? Yi showing his off y, He's very proud of his answer. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying woodland, Dance saying tundra, Hunter saying arctic, Hayden sang woodland, Crean without an answer, Maggie sang Rudolph, and Janice saying woodland. The correct answer is boreal forest or woodland, which gives

Steve the perfect game. But do you do you know how already? I mean, the last one to know. Now what what? What's your discussion on this? Uh? Do you know? Geneticists like like the number of cariboo subspecies just keep shrinking. And at this point, now, if you ask the geneticist, they think they they're saying that all caribou Europe, Asia, North America is just it, and it's it's phenotypes. This is going off of the like Super Slam, which I think is twenty nine species, and I think they have

five or six cariboo in there. And this is one distinct caribou that they separate from the rest is the woodland, boreal or forest. So that's where I got that answer. Okay, Steve, the one thousand dollar donations thousand dollars if you if you want to quickly, uh, you know, educate yourself. Just texted. I just texted with um with Fosberg at tr CP. TRCP is aware of the Ambler fight which is gonna

be brewing soon. And I'm gonna donate my thousand dollars, uh to the organization where I sit on the board of the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership. And what do you like about them so much? Because guaranteeing Americans quality places the hunting fish can argue that, Steve with I think our third Perfect Game and Meat Eater Trivia history and it happens on the Christmas episode. Nonetheless, now we potentially have that film two thousand dollar donation coming up. We've

got to see how family feud goes. We're gonna take a little break. We will be back with the feud after this. All right, we are back with you. This is a very special Christmas edition of Family Feud. Every single question is Christmas related. If you're not familiar with Family Feud. Our crew will split up into two teams. Then a member from each team will face off to determine who gets control of the board. During the face off, whoever provides the highest ranking answer will get to choose

if their team passes or plays. During the main play, each member of the team will provide answers they think are on the board. If you get one wrong, you'll get a strike and you'll hear this. If you get one right, you will hear this. You only get three strikes before the other team gets an opportunity to steal. When a team has a chance to steal, they get to come together as a group to decide on what they think is the best answer, and then the captain

will provide it's not the same. This is about one hundred people being pulled. Now. There are four point totals are doubled in round three and tripled in round four. The team with the most points at the end, we'll get to choose where the five conservation ornization donation goes. They'll also get to play fast money for a chance to double the donation to one thousand dollars. Now, let's

meet family feud would pull people. I assume they have like an outside agency that cold calls hord people all family feud did They will steal in their questions to absolutely. They're probably standing in like a shopping mall somewhere asking folks this you sold their questions and their idea. They sell family feud packs on the internet. You can go to Amazon right now and by like family feud, Thanksgiving,

family feud, Fourth of July, family feud, Christmas. Hope, we don't do that with all your work, all of it. Go at it. Let's meet our families. Over here, we have the Steven Rannella family, which features Crin Schneider, Hayden, Sammy, and Dan Chumbler. Now, Steve, how do you feel about your family's ability to play Christmas family feud? You like

what you see? Yeah, he's in the emerging threat. Okay, one by one, He's got any emerging threat on the team and going up against them is the Yanni Patel's family, which includes Hunter Spencer, Garrett Law and Maggie Smith. Be honest, how do you feel about your family's ability of your teammates in the future? If these are pretty current event type questions contemporary, I think we're going to do much better because our family is much younger than Bob Bartner

has been dead for isn't he dead now? He looks dead to see the guy that wants you to spaying due to your pets. Yeah, and Drew Drew Carry still says that line at the end of the episodes. Yeah, he does all right. Going up against each other, first, we have Steve and we have Yanni. Do you understand what's gonna happen? I know I don't understand. Here's what's gonna happen. You two are competing for your chance for your team to get control of the board. I will

ask a prompt. Whoever rings in first gets to answer, Okay, and then when you answer, if you give the top answer, can you give me an example what you mean? I would say something like, top eight answers are on the board. Uh, we asked one hundred people name someone you wouldn't want to hear you having making whoopee or something like that, and that's combining and then yes, and then we'd say survey says, and then ding the mom is number three right?

And if you if you don't give the top answer, Yanni would get a chance to provide a better answer than that. So right now you're going for speed and accuracy. I think I know what people would say that they talked to in the parking a lot some years ago. Exactly exactly are we ready? You're honest? Get your hand by your buzzer. Top eight answers are on the board. We asked one hundred people name a popular Christmas cookie shape we have. Oh yeah, Yannie beat him bad way.

I think I think it was clearly honest. A lot of time to think about my honest give us your answer, dude. There was simultaneous I think family feud has technology. The Fila Steve nobody was recording us. I said I couldn't see well and and Hayden thought, oh, Karin Karn, you said you honest. He just put words in my mouth. I thought, how about we both just write down our answer. You just gotta get honest, give it to be honest. We gotta keep going and honest. You get Christmas tree,

Christmas Tree, show me Christmas Tree. It's way high on the list, number one answer Christmas Tree. Thirty two people said that, Yanni, you now get to choose if your team is going to pass or play. If you play, you get the first chance to get all eight answers. If you choose to pass, Steve's team will instead. If you don't get all eight answers, Steve's team would get a chance to steal and they just have to come up with one correct answer that's left on the board.

So what's it gonna be? Passed or play? Do I get my kids? Do I get to discuss real quick with my team? Now? Just choose one? Really, really, come on, how confident you eight? O eight? Play is more fun? Yanni's team is choosing to play. We're now over to Garrett. Garrett eight answers around the board. We asked one hundred people like, how much does it matter that you just

gave him the bell? Thing? Is that like a huge up for them or in the in the end it just washes out gave them the bell that we sprung the bell. At the same time, somewhat arbitrarily said he didn't see if the chances of them getting all eight honestly are probably pretty slimming. And then if they don't get all eight, you just have to get one and your team gets all the points. I think. I think the smart the smart tactic and family feud is if

it's like seven or eight, you should pass. If it's like if it's like five or six, you should play. So they chose what I would say incorrectly here and your chance like, get a chance to steal. We're over to Garrett. Garrett. We talked to one hundred people and said, name a popular Christmas cookie shape. The number one answer is gone, What do you got Santa Claus?
