This mediated podcast. Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer new Hearth, and today we're joined by Stephen Ranella, Brody Henderson, Seth Morris, Hayden Samic Corey Caulkins, Marge Smith, Randall Williams, Sam James, and Savannah Ashore A. Savannah, this is your first time on the show, So tell folks what you
do here at meat Eater. I'm the director of Publishing A Meat Eater and that means I work on our print book projects as well as camp Fire Stories, our audiobook series. How do you feel about your chances of Meat Eater Trivia? Very very bad. I tried to get out of this, Steve. You know Savannah, Well, how do you think she's gonna do? Uh? First, I'll say that when it comes to the book publishing, me and Brodi and Savanna are like nuts on a dog. Three nutt
a dog. That's right, and you've added a four, right, and we've grown a fourth. But about Meaty to Dandle, how do you think she's going to do? Well? Here's the deal, uh, Savannah. Admittedly, here's what makes Savannah a great collaborative partner is she looks at everything with a fresh eye. She's not biased by past knowledge. Savannah has Steve told you this before. This is a beautiful way of describing me. Um, she said, it's just in one ear.
It's the information comes in because she works on so many books. That's what she's done her whole career. It comes in, there's no place for it to live. It gets worked on, and then it leaves. Not like, that's not the way you hunt, dear, it would. It would drag me down to have to just store that information she's done ghostwriting for in her past publishing. There's no room for it all. Just be clear, this is a
compliment you're giving her. That's a She's able to very quickly immerse herself into a world, look at it from the perspective of a non insider, find out what makes sense, what works, what needs better explanation, and then a vacuum apparatus of some sort. The vacuum. The vacuum is my brain. But she's worked on so much mediator stuff. There's a chance some of it may be back there in the
back of her head, may have trapped some information. But I'm mostly saying that because this is what Savannah was saying. I had to basically begged her to come down here, and I had sort of got her to come down under the idea that she would be on my team. But that idea wasn't down immediately by Hayden bro He said, I keep thinking, like, I'm gonna come down here, and I don't know, Brody will have like you know, like you'll hit like your pension. I don't know what happened,
like you get a certain age. I mean like like like I don't know if bro retired, not yet. He's got your man. He's got like a gold watch and ship. I don't know. But every time I come down, you're like, there he is sitting there. Yeah, same place. Now. It's not didn't retire. It's not lost on me, Steve. That you've got like the whole book publishing team in town. Does that mean something? You got anything to share? Yeah,
it's kind of a Yeah. We got a lot of projects, so we got a new we got a new title coming out. We have an activity for a great activity book. It's like an activity book, but it's an educational manual. If you want, if you wish your kids knew all the ship. You don't know you'd get him this book. So just for kids and adults. No, it's for it's for a wide swath of kids. Catch Crayfish, Count Stars. When does that come out? Oh, when does it come out? With it very same June June of next year. It's
from June of this year. So I have my kids are eight, ten, and twelve. It's very appropriate for all of my kids, be appropriate for kids a bit younger, and my twelve year old definitely hasn't aged out of it. But it's like it's the whole world put into these things that like activities they can do. Some you know, if you're not careful, your kid might cut his finger off or something, so you gotta be you gotta exercise caution. Something they can do on their own. Some they'll need
some help with. We loaded it with all of the requisite warnings. Um. But if you want your kid to understand the planet in their place in it and like what's going on around them, Um, this is a book you ought to buy form love it. Is it safe to assume that there is always a book in the works, multiple titles, always in the work, So like this, this one that's coming out the Kids Activity book. How long has that been in the works? Look in years? I don't know. I'm joking, but I mean we started working
on it a year and a half ago. As soon as we finished the Wilderness Skills Book, we got into this one, and then we got more. We were doing like we're doing, uh, Sportsman's Atlas of America. So if you wanted to be like, where exactly did Hugh Glass get killed? Um, it would point you to that place and it would tell you what it looks like, what went on there. How you can go to probably the closest known spot to be like, where did Hugh Like, where did Hugh Glass get mauled by a grizzly bear?
It'll help you pinpoint as close as possibly know. Where was Daniel Boone's first son killed? Where was Daniel Boone's second son killed? Um? And another ship too, not just not just old people like that. I'm just throwing that on as an example. And we're doing a thing um and and Randall's working on this right now. We're working on audio original that will be a complete the story and explanation of the Long Hunters and Mountain Men and all the market factors what they did, like the real
ship you want to know? Yeah, I forgot about the cookbook. Oh my goodness, it's a lot of words. Cookbook. We're finishing an outdoor cookbook right now. It's like a follow up to the Fishing Game, complete guide or not a complete guy? What hell's that book called the Mediator Cookbook? The follow up to the mediaor cookbook. That's our best selling title ever. Are any more of these releases in No, No, just one and then one more cookbook, the Daniel Pruett
Wild and Home that's being finished up right now. So many books Steve can't even remember them all well. And then uh, it would just so people understand the If you like the Close Calls series, the audio original the Media's Close Calls that was that was Savannah's project. It's great, but all that information went over head and there's a volume three in the work that's true. Wow, now, Savannah.
If you're not familiar, this is a ten round quiz show with questions from meat eaters four verticals which are hunting, fishing, conservation and cooking, and there's a prize. Meat eater will donate five hundred dollars to the conservation organization of the winners choosing in each week here on Trivia, we reveal
a new stat this week. We're looking at Steve and Brodie's performances when the other isn't playing this now, because the last time I was here it was like it was like an observation of his was Now Brodie has accused Steve of racking up winds when Brodie isn't here, and Steve has accused Brodie of racking up wins when Steve isn't here. Well, now we're going to get to the bottom of this. When Steve has played without Brody,
he has won eight of ten times. When Brody has played without Steve, he has won four of eight times. So sixty seven percent if Steve's Meat Eater Trivia victories have happened without Brodie playing, and thirty three percent of Brodie's victories have happened without Steve playing. He really is better than this is the advanced metrics revolutionary. That's right.
That means that Steve's winning percentage when Brodie isn't here is eighty percent, and his winning percentage when Brodie is here is Brodie's winning again, You're winning percentage without Brody is really your winning percentage with Brodie Brodie's Brodie's winning percentage when Steve isn't here is fifty percent, and his winning percentage when Steve is here is hum This to me one of the things you may not recognize. It sounds like Brodie needs Steve to be here to like
sort of amping mom. Yeah, because he's like plus the fun like beat Schuster. Meanwhile, Steve, Steve gets hiped up when Brody isn't here, and that's when he has his a game. Oh dude, when Brody's here, I'm paying way more attention. Yeah, yeah, we have some housekeeping to get to you before we play. On last week's episode, we heard from a linguist on why Colorado is not only an acceptable pronunciation but also the preferred one among locals. But Steve said that he will side with whatever John
Denver says. So I went through Denver's entire discography and found seven different songs where Colorado is in the lyrics. He really was on the heels on like the payroll Stake promotion. Those songs are I guess I'd rather be in Colorado Christmas like a lullaby whispering Jesse the Harder they Fall, Durango Mountain, Caballero, The Blizzard, and Steve's favorite sing along, Rocky Mountain High play the Clinton Phil I've seen it, five Statto star softer Rocky. Yeah, you need
to hear Chester cover that. Yeah, that's what I thought. I could feel good about that now. And most people live there live there because of the the Johnny Denver, Okay, that's a good stat like that, most stats. Now. In all seven of Denver songs that mentioned Colorado, he sings Rotto instead of Ratto. I couldn't even find one instance of Denver using the local pronunciation. But there's a reason
for that. John Denver isn't a Colorado native. Denver, who was born as Henry John Deutstendorf, was raised in Arizona. He went to college in Texas, then moved to Los Angeles, and then moved to Minnesota. It wasn't until he was nearly thirty years old when he moved to Aspen, where he lived from nineteen seventy to nine seven. So when he wrote Rocky Mountain High in nineteen seventy two, he
had only been a Colorado resident for two years. So, Steve, does that change your stance at all on John Denver being the authority. Okay, uh, what was John Wayne's last name? Was John Wayne? Like? His real name is Marion. I don't know. I guess I'm the one guy with a computer, Marian Robert Morrison. John Wayne's was like, yeah, so you're sticking with Rotto. Okay. The Shelby index for this round is a force who are winner? Should get eight correct answers,
and with that we're onto the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil, Look, I need to know what I stand wind everything? How's that just tend to win everything? Damon suckers. Question one the topic is public lands, and as always, this will be multiple choice. Which of these animals is not found in Yellowstone National Park? Is it garter snakes, wolverines, pelicans, or large mouth bass? Which of these animals is not found in yellow Stone National Park?
Is it garter snakes, wolverines, pelicans, or large mouth bass? Savannah? Just to be clear, there is one right answer, not multiple One right answer in this bunch. Garter snakes, wolverines, pelicans or large mouth bass. Everybody have an answer? Right? Everybody have an answer? Okay, Gardner snakes, wolverines, pelicans, large mouth bass. Remember everyone, Hayden was an emerging threat. What do you call a declining threat? You, Eddie Hayden, Go

Marge and Corey and randall it wrong, Seth saying large mouth bass. Bears. He just real bass. They need to be real worried about smallmouth these days. The correct answer is large mouth bass. You want to tell me, you want me to tell you a stat that will chill blow your mind. It's
here in these ponds here about town. Huh. Anything that has anything besides a rainbow or a cut was illegally introduced. Fish and game has never done perch, never done largemouth bass, never done bluegill. It's all bucket biology. They've never done or done goldfish. They've never done it. I thought at some point they were doing perch. They've never done perch. When it gets when they find small mouth, that's the threshold, then they knut the waterway. But they'll they'll talk like
I guess somehow they'll tolerate the perch and stuff. But if you went down and threw a small mouth into the pond down the road here, they get mad. They're
gonna nu it. Gardener snakes are considered the most common reptile in yellow Stone Pelicans regularly nest in the southern arm of yellow Stone Lake, and it's thought that there are about a dozen wolverines in the park, with the last sighting happening in March of Large mouth bass are not found there, but smallmouth bass are threatening to make an appearance. The park has a strict catch and kill policy for any small mall caught within its boundaries. Question

It's kind of like. Early versions of the game featured matches that could last for days, with hundreds of men on fields that were miles wide.
For equipment, these sticks were made of wood, the balls were made of deer hide, and the nets were made of deer sinew. Oral tradition site that the first ever lacrosse game was played between Birds and ma'ms man my wife for Christmas got us this little it's like a net that you can turn your kitchen table into a ping pong table. I'm obsessed, man, Really, my kids played every night. Really does it just stay on there for days? Sometimes beat everybody. You get it off so fast. I

I want to rephrase that office two point oh that opens this year is gonna have a ping pong table so we'll be able to test these claims. I had one for years in my garage, and I gave it to the company, so it should show up in the new office. I'm kicking around. I can't decide. I'm kicking around, Like, at what point you should buy like a really nice paddle, Yeah,

This plant, which combines the name of a mammal with the name of a vegetable is said to smell like rotting meat. What is it? This plant, which combines the name of a mammal with the name of a vegetable is said to
smell like rotting meat. What is it? Quick answer the category Woodsman Ship Quick answers from Steve and Set and Hayden. Sethe this, I wouldn't say a hunter we're saying, but I feel pretty good about it. Broke he just looked him down there. Man, listen the heckling. I don't do it to you, but I'm gonna start. I'm quitting you. Guys can trade sides to you. Brody can heckle, and you can be silent. It gets in my head and then I can't think it's unfair. Go ahead, I feel good.
Does everyone else say an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying skunk cabbage, Savannah sang dogwood Hayden sang skunk cabbage, Brody without an answer, Sam saying skunk cabbage, March sang corpse flower, Randall sang skunk cabbage, and Seth saying skunk cabbage. They got it. The correct answer is skunk cabbage. I never got the dead the corpse thing from it. Well, the corpse thing kind of
through me offa my board. Skunk gabbage has the unique ability to generate heat and melt snow, which allows it to emerge in early spring. This warm air helps carry the plants foul odor and attract pollinators. Eastern skunk cabbage is fround from Canada to Tennessee, and Western skunk cabbage ranges from Alaska to California. Bears will dig that out and need it. What it's your own? Question for? The topic is cooking? What does m R E stand for?
Quick answers from everyone in the room. This maybe a one right question again, topic is cooking? What does m R E stand for? Working on perfect game? Over there? Huh? Does everybody have an answer?

I'm sorry, Hayden without an answer, Defense Sam saying meal is ready to eat, Corey and Marge without an answer, Randall saying meal ready to eat. Seth saying made ready to eat. The correct answer is meals ready to eat. So I'm the only one that got it. I got it, I got it. The plural isn't important
if you got meal or meals. I'm not going to give it to Seth though, who said aid ready to eat. Although the Department of the Defense began developing m R s in nineteen sixty three, they weren't issued to soldiers until nineteen eighty one. Early iterations of m R e s were so unpalatable that soldiers created their own version of the acronym. Meals rejected by everyone. Others complained about the constipation they caused. Which inspired another nickname Meals requiring enemas.
Question five, the topic is woodsmanship. This next great question comes to us via Jarry Jacobs. If you have a question you think is right for meata to trivia, you can send it to trivia at the meat Eator dot com. According to doll Bear's law, you can determine air temperature by counting the number of these in fifteen seconds. What was the category again, woodsman ship? According to doll Bears law, you can determine air to temperature by counting the number
of these in fifteen seconds. We stumped the room with this question. Doll Bears Law not giving any hints. You can determine air temperature by counting the number of these in fifteen seconds? Is anybody coming up with an answer? And he guesses I kind of know it, but I kind of don't. Okay, Stephen Brodie have yet to write anything down written. Do you know it? No? Oh, I do know it, Hayden knows it? Nobody? Look, Steve, how's it going over here? Just not good? This is gonna
be a saving grace. I was on a perfect game, buddy, until question five, which is according to doll Bear's law, you can determine air temperature by counting the number of these in fifteen seconds. Are you gonna come up with anything? I don't think so. I mean give me all day. I might. Is everyone else who is going to come up with an answer have an answer? I mean I'll throw up something out there. But Brody odds, are you got this one right? Oh? Like ten percent? Yeah, go
ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve without an answer. Savannah saying birds, Hayden saying cricket chirps, Brody sang echoes, Sam saying ice crystals, March saying birds, Corey sang thermometers, Randall sang snowflakes, Seth saying clouds. We have a correct answer in the room. It's cricket chirps. It's so stupid. He didn't got it. How could you determine? Its stupid? Yeah, this law was formulated by Amos. I think, yeah, that's
not what Spencer shore doesn't work. I thought, no, great question, No way, I'll called dog durn right now. I'm telling you it's Dolbears law. And we just came past two minutes and just do a new question. Now, this law is stup Dolbear in For the most part, his claim has proven to be fairly accurate. It's believed his spirits that we're done with snowy tree crickets, but other types
of crickets work as well. If you're solving for fahrenheit, then you count the chirps in fifteen seconds and add forty. If you're solving for celsius, then you count the chirps in eight seconds and add five. Heart of questions, I never said it's right. What's what's the law that spot animal size with latitude? That's not principle. That's not always accurate either, but it's still a question principle. And this
is a legitimate law. I thought it was. Really how can it be legitimate if you're trying to take the air temperature in Antarctica or here right now, or most anywhere. You guys are getting too mad about the accuracy of it. It's Dolbear law, dold Bears law. You can argue with him who died in seven It's just like the Bergman's principle. I'm gonna get his bone. I'm gonna dig his bones out in urinat of phil we are halfway through the game. Give us A scoreboard update. Who got it right? Anyway? Yeah,
how did you know that? Dold bears law. I'm surprised it's actually not in your kids a kid's activity something like I said clearly earlier that you do want your kids. Yeah, Phil, scoreboard. Everyone is on the board. We've got Savannah, Maggie and Corey with one point of peace, Brodie Henderson with two points, Seth and Hayden with three, and then we've got a three way tie in first place between Steve, Sam and Randall who have four being pretty quiet about how well
they're doing. Randall's gonna win. I mean, I've been dreaming of this my whole life. Now, Steve, this summer, maybe when you hear some crickets, go and do this experiment and see how accurate it is. What if you just buy some crickets and bring them with you where you go? Gecko cage. That means about question six. The topic is hunting. Named two of the top five states in America that
killed the most geese? What kind of all geese? This classifies all geese via the US Fish and Wildlife Service named two of the top five states in America that killed the most geese Savannah. This is probably the furthest removed from your wheelhouse. What do you think the odds are that you're gonna get this one? Right? Zero? Zero? Okay, but I confidently wrote a couple of states. You got two states? Right now? Does everybody else have an answer? Looking for two of the top five states in America
that kill the most geese. Steve you good? No, everybody ready and reveal your name? You have, Steve saying North Dakota, South Dakota. Would you cross out Texas? Savannah sang Florida, Arkansas, heyd He sang South Dakota, Kansas, Brodi sang Maryland, Iowa, Sam saying Wyoming, Nebraska, Marge sang Wisconsin, North Dakota, Corey sang Louisiana, Alabama, Randall saying South Dakota, Minnesota, Seth saying South Dakota, North Dakota. The top five states are Texas, Minnesota, California, Maryland,
and North Dakota. I don't I don't think anybody got two of them. Most folks got one stated Steep crossed out Texas. Most folks got one state, but not California. I don't think. So Texas leads the country in goose harvest, and they're followed by Minnesota in second, Californian third, Maryland and fourth, and North Dakota in fifth. In Texas, the average hunter kills five geese in three days of field.
The state also has the top five counties in America that killed the most geese, with most of them being located on the Gulf. Question seven, the topic is gear. This next great question comes to us via Douglas car. 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. Hunter's Specialties declared this tool, which is used to remove a deer's anal canal, the
best invention since the knife. Hunters Specialties declared the this tool, which is used to remove a deer's anal canal, the best invention since the knife. Use one of these, no, but I like imagining how with theoretically works. I got one a joke. I got one as a joke one time, some very confident answers in the room. I drew a picture of it. You also need to have what it's
called for the room. I can't think of it. Hunts Steven show up a second I'm gonna be a stickler on this one with the answer, you big mouth billy bass. I let a lot slide, but this one you need to have the exact name. Hunter's Specialties declared this tool, which is used to remove a deer's anal canal, the best invention since the knife. Steve, do you have anything written down? One word? Okay? Not the not the oh?
How the mighty have fallen? Dude? If I had just gotten that last one, it wouldn't matter that I can't get this one. Uh I phone me and I know what you're talking about. I'll draw it for you. It sounds like a few folks have got Brody pointing to his watch, which is directed at Steve. Does everybody else have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying wreckt um rener, Savannah saying crossed out. He crossed out, but Savannah sang the anal scoop with
a little TM logo. Hayden sang but out, and he drew um a popular graffiti. You can use your imagination. Brodie writing butt out, Sam saying corkscrew, Marge without an answer, Corey saying butt hole extracted Randall and Seth saying but out they got it. The correct answer is butt out. The butt out tool has been on the market for about fifteen years. The plug was designed to keep hunters
from splitting the pelvic bone or puncturing the bladder. Although it's often given as a gag gift, the three thousand Amazon reviews for an average of four point seven stars, speaks for itself. Brody, have you used the tool that you got as a gag gift? Okay? You think you ever? Will? Imagine? They're not real popular on this side of the Missouri River. I mean, I don't know anyone's ever used one. Question eight, the topic is fishing. What type of shark is responsible
for the second most attacks worldwide? What type of shark is responsible for the second most attacks worldwide? Not looking for first, looking for second? Brody, you got this one pretty quick answer. No, I feel like this one could be some kind of trick question. That's what I'm thinking, dude. I'm telling you don't. Don't anticipate them being trick questions. It is worked very poorly for me. This is question eight.
We will get a scoreboard update from Phill the engineer after this does everybody have an answer looking for the type of shark that's responsible for the second most attacks worldwide. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying great white, Savannah is saying the less great white. Hayden sang bull, Brodie sang tiger, Sam saying bull, Marge sang blue shark, were He sang bull shark, Randall sang tiger shark, Seth saying great white. The correct answer is tiger sharks.
Damn it. I wrote that down for a while. A couple of folks in the room got it right. The great white is first on the list with three hundred fifty one attacks. Now I'm out of the game. The tiger shark is second at one two and the bull shark is third at one nineteen. The rankings for fatal attacks are the same. Great whites are first at fifty nine, tigers are second at thirty nine, and bulls are third at twenty six. I thought for sure it was one of them trick questions. It was gonna be like nurse
or some little shot in my outfit. We have two questions left. Is Steve out of the game? Uh? Corey, Maggie and Savannah are out of the game, okay, and technically Steve, Seth, Sam Hayden, and Brody are still in the game with four points apiece, but Randall Williams has a two point lead. Really came on strong, Savannah, still a probationary period. Question nine, The topic is biology. What type of biologists studies reptiles and amphibians? What type of
biologists studies reptiles and amphibians? This will do nothing, This will do nothing to change the relative scores. Doesn't look like Randall is gonna get this one wrong. He's gonna coast to an easy victim. You almost had me. I thought you're gonna say, doesn't look like Randa's gonna get this one right? Can I change it? Still? Again? What type of biologists studies reptiles and amphibians? Hoping for a couple that, like only I would know? Does everybody have
an answer? I feel like I'm being specific, but a campaign, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying her petologists, Savannah sang reptology, repetologist, herpetologist, Bertie saying herpetologist, Sam without an answer, Marge without an answer, Corey sang neutologist, Randall sang herpetologists, and Seth saying herpetologists, they got it. The correct answer is herpetologist. Some of the world's most famous herpetologists include Jeff Corwin and Steve Irwin, who are
considered herpetological showman. The average salary for herpetologist in America is sixty seven thousand dollars. Phil, we have one question left. What does the scoreboard look like? The scoreboard looks like Randall Williams is our winner already already question dude doesn't even need the like the showdown, kneel on the ball here, and what is his score? With one question? He has seven points? Seven points? Brody Hayden, Seth and Steve Randall,
you're now chasing the Shelby Index. If you get this one right, you will have hit it. Question ten, the topic is public land. This next great question comes to us via John Honeycut. If you have a question you think is right for meatat to Trivia, you can send it to Trivia at the meatator dot com. What word describes a man made stack of rocks that sometimes used to mark trails or graves. Spelling is important, Spelling is never important. What word describes a man made stack of
rocks that sometimes used to mark trails or graves. Randall, you're gonna get this one right. Yes, it's another layoff that doesn't do anything to change the road. It's like you gave Randle like a bunch of questions that I had new but erased. I was saying, and this is the minute he got to lead. It's all just I was fully on board. I was fully on board with all the complaining when we were talking about the crickets. But I feel like at this point we just kind
of need to move on right one more time. What word describes a man made stack of rocks that sometimes used to mark trails or graves. Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Steve saying Karen, Savannah saying gravehead, Hayden saying Karen. That spelling is so far you know now he slowly he's saying Karen, Sam saying Karen, Marge saying Karen, uh, Corey, and Randall and
Sad saying Karen. We have a lot of very creative spellings in the The correct answer is C A I R. And although these are sometimes used as calculated markers, Cair and building has become more destructive in the last decadeen Zion National Park beg visitors in a Facebook post to stop building them. They said this practice is vandalism and that it's destroying habitat and creating erosion. Got I think
that at at their best. Uh, when you're hiking in an area and you get into an alpine area, um and over time, because there's no obstacles, people tend to like emerge into the area and then spread out. And so in trying to like to limit traffic in these in alpine tundra, you would be like, okay, like here's a rough course. Even though you can go wherever you want,
maybe you'd kind of stay on this little path. But it is you go on some things and there's like eight of them up there, and people was making for the for the fun of it. Yeah, sometimes good, but most oftense folks they just want to cool Instagram picture one more little um and reading about Arctic explorers. Whenever they want to, they leave a note about you know, Bob's dad, we ate Dave, maybe we're gonna be at
Death Bay, you know. For the winner, they would write a note, put into bottle or a tin, go to a headline and make a giant rock cairn and then you know someone's looking for that's where how giant you talking back up to see from a ship most been sizeable chunking, and then you dismantle it and find whatever they had, you know, whatever like whatever dire whatever dire news they had would be shared that way. Randall, congrats on the victory. Eight correct answers. It's an authoritative game.
What happens ex is you get to choose where the five hundred dollar donation goes from Meat Eater. So what's it going to be? I would like the five dollars to go to the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership. Its just like our one. Steve also to me Vickery and started another round of clapping. Now, random, what do you like
about them? Uh? They're a wonderful employer my previous employer prior to coming to Meat Eater, and a lot of excellent work, great folks, and focused on substantive policy that makes life better for hunters and englers. Good on you, Randall. That's a Tier two competitor that came in here. Stepte to tell with you and Broody in Tier one he's joined tier one victory too. It's kind of like you don't even know the guy. How do you know? He's tire too, though he came in at tier two. Was
bummed because Yanni was the only person in tier two. Oh, I see how you're graining. I was, so he's tier two until he's proven he's Tier one. Yeah, and we'll flesh it out over the rest of it. It's like, like, you know, to take it to a sports nology, you'd be like, um an untested but very excited draft picks like that. Still, you know, like Lebron James came into the league, you know, had a strong, strong showing in my first round, won a championship this time, you know,
just keep going. We'll see Randall. That's it for this episode. Join us next time for more Meat Eat or Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins.
