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

Yeah, I'd love to Hey Spencer really quick. I watched you do this for a while and I've always wanted to try something like this.

Say is it okay?

If I asked its like kind of like a preliminary first question. Yeah, yeah, said okay, Okay, give me one second here, Okay, I'm gonna cut to the cut to the question scream I'm gonna go over here. All right, Can you guys read that? Ok Lets say I'm gonna read out for you. This great question was sent to us by Phil the Engineer. If you have a question that you think is right for media or trivia, Please

Before before anyone answers For the people who can't see Phil has a sun hat on, He's got a belly shirt with a Hawaiian shirt open on top of it, and sunglasses. I'm gonna say the answer, Phil is zero times. You're right, Okay, good.

Job, And that's for I just also want to say, mostly because Hr is here, that is.

Of no faults. That is of no faults a meat Eater, Inc. That is mostly a me problem.

I'm kind of a control freak, much like our our intrepid host over there. But I finally decided to schedule a week off. Yeah, you know, I had got of a busy summer. I sent Spencer the the the iCal invite and he immediately shot back saying, oh shit, oh no, oh.

Are you sure?

Is this the only time that you can do this? And I said the same thing, Well, yeah, I'd rather not come in during this week. I'm finally taking a vacation, and Spencer said, I'm really sorry, but we have to do this. It's it's it's tournament time. So so here we are. I'm in vacation mode. That's that's what this is. I've got my my Star Wars tiki mug clearance rack

I like being here.

The only reason I said yes is because I like Spencer and I like tripping even more.

But you know I'm off the clock. Baby, you can't stop me.

Well, thank you, Phil, you didn't have to sneak any kind words in there. Very much appreciate what fuddyd so generous.

I hope you snuck a Pina Colada into a tik mug.

I was planning on it, Hansei, but honestly, I'm out of my my good rum and so this is ice water.

And also it's also ten o'clock in the morning on a Tuesday.

Yeah, well, thank you for being here. Phil. Much appreciated. And as Phil said, this isn't any regular old game of meat Eater trivia. This is episode one of the twenty twenty three Mead Eater Trivia tournament. There are four episodes total, and by the end of the last one, we'll have crowned a champion of Meet Eater Trivia for twenty twenty three. How does the room feel about playing with the stakes being so high?

Terrified?

Yeah, okay, yeah, I like that. We're number one number. This is episode one. That's right, that's good.

Spencer. Tell us how the bracket's gonna work.

Bracket is gonna work. I'll explain it right here. Here's how this is going to work. Episode one is a qualifying round with seven players, two of which will move on to the championship. Episode two is a qualifying round with seven new players, two of which we'll also move on to the championship. Episode three and four are the championship rounds. Those will feature the four qualifying players as well as our reigning champion, Brody Henderson, Steven Ranella, Giannis Putellis,

Just to put in perspective, what's the winner again and Bragg and Wrights or is there more to it the winner?

We will get to that at the end. I'll tell you this part right now. We have a plaque that is hanging up somewhere.

Is it in here?

Phil?

Do we know?

I think it's outside on one of the shows.

Okay, we have a.

Plaque that will make its way in here which has the champion's name on it, and our reigning champion, Brody Henderson, he's the only name on it right now. Now for the start of the week, This week, we're looking at the performance of players from last year's tournament qualifying episodes. In the two play in shows from twenty twenty two, are competitors averaged five point zero seven correct answers per game.

Oh no, that was from Moana Molana.

Okay, there's a I'm actually not even sure exact which animal he is, but he calls himself a decapod, which is their ten critter.

Phil would have got that one right. Yeah, we have some housekeeping. Actually, I take the back. We are skipping the housekeeping portion of today's show. But there's one final note about the tournament before we move on. Listeners with a keen ear will notice that the questions from this week and next week resemble each other because they're both qualifying rounds. I designed the scripts to have similar themes

Just tend to win everything?

So moody the lighting game on round one?

I love that, Phil? How'd you get that voice? Is that your voice?

Right?

Oh?

No?

I you have like a little speech generator or something like that.

Yeah.

Question one the topic is public lands, and as always, this will be multiple choice. Which of these animals is not found in New Mexico's HeLa National Forest? Is it a cou's deer mountain, goat, Canada goose or black bear? Very good? Phil? Which of these animals is not found in New Mexico's Hila National Forest? Cou's deer mountain goat, Canada goose or black bear? Vacation mode Phil obviously spent some of his vacation mode or some of his vacation

He said, that's right, So that's why I've got cheap cheap clothes, cheaper music, and.

Uh public lands. Which of these animals is not found in New Mexico's Hila National Forest. COO's Deer Mountain, Goat Canada, Goose, black Bear. It's anyone ben to the HeLa National Forest in.

This room many times?

Many times? Do you know this one?

I know what I've found there?

Okay, you've seen some of the things in some of these choices.

For sure.

Two out of those.

Fours okay, COO's Deer Mountain, Goat Canada, Goose, black Bear.

I'm trying to like read your eyes to see which ones.

You'll look well. I mean, I argue with Spencer on the answers to these supposedly well defined questions all the time.

Because the steaks are so high. I had Randall Williams fact check all of these questions, make sure there was no wiggle room for any one to argue, no possibility of there being an error. So with that said, if you have a complaint, I'm gonna have you filet with Randall instead of me. He was the last line of defense from anything here being wrong.

Nice diversion.

Does everybody have an answer? Hmm?

I promise myself I was gonna listen to my intuition. Okay, and you're not sound and I think I'm gonna stick with it.

Yeah, Sam doing some erasing. It's everybody ready, Yes, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying mountain goats, Chili saying black bear, Hansi saying Canada goose, Mackenzie saying mountain goat, Christine saying mountain goat, Sam saying Canada goose. The correct answer is mountain goats. A few folks got it right. The closest mountain goats to the HeLa National Forest are located about three hundred miles north in Colorado, So Canada. Geese spend winter in the forest, while black

How which other one have you not seen?

Well? The Canada goose would be like I it's a migratory bird, goes wherever it wants. I'm sure sure geese are in the HeLa, but I haven't.

Seen one.

I've called a BlackBerry in with a cow call on accident, yep, yep. And I've seen coos deer and found their sheds in the HeLa so cool.

Question two. The topic is hunting. This is our listener question of the week, which was won by Steve Corson for sending this great question. He's going to get a book signed by Steve. Name one of the ten most popular male dog names in twenty twenty two, according to the American Kennel Club, col with an extremely quick answer, A lot of confidence over here.

I got a question on this quest.

What do you got?

So you said one of ten? Can we put multiple options?

That you put multiple and you get it wrong.

I feel like that's a valid question.

Name one of the ten most popular male dog names in twenty twenty two. Cow, Please explain your confidence?

Oh, I mean a good gas. Yeah, but we should play just real briefly. The ten most common dog names in fishing towns.

Oh do you think you know that one?

Everybody in Boseman Madison. My parents did growing up too, so I can't say anything bad about it.

Name one of the ten most popular male dog names in twenty twenty two according to the American Kennel Club. How many dog owners do we have in the room, Sam, I got a dog? Everyone except Chili and Christine.

Landlord won't let me have it.

I blame them that I get this wrong.

I do.

I feel like this is so obvious, But now that it's obvious, I can't think about it.

Fill your dog owner, right.

That's right? Yeah, I'm trying to Okay, Yeah, Phil.

What's your dog's name?

Yeah, Mango.

Well, I can't say anything because it's kinda'll be.

At him.

Name one of the ten most popular male dog names in twenty twenty two.

I mean ten names, McKenzie.

That's like the hard part is like, am I the last one?

Yeah?

Okay, I'm ruining.

Sam as well. Is everybody ready? You have an answer? Mackenzie, I don't feel okay, yeah, yeah, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying scouts, Chili saying boon, HANSI said, saying river, Mackenzie saying moose, Christine saying bear, Sam saying body. We have I think one correct answer in the room. It's bear. Christine got it right. Here are the other nine, Max, Milo, Cooper, Charlie, Teddy, Tucker, Buddy, Bear, Rocky and Leo.

Charlie.

Of course, Charlie, I'd like to point out that she has a few answers on her board, so she crossed.

Out I want to show like I just missing. The top ten were Loki, Jack, Coda, Murphy, Oliver, Ali, and Bentley. Some of these dog names were also among the top human names for boys. Leo was the highest from the list at twenty two. That's followed by Cooper at fifty three, Milo at one twenty, Max at one fifty six, Charlie at one seventy eight, and Tucker at one ninety seven.

I feel like, if this is just a Gallatin County survey, I think seventy eight percent of that would be Bridger. Yeah yeah, Bridger, Madison, River, Rio, Sage, Oh yeah, y.

Do the people in this room? Do you know more Cooper dogs or Cooper humans?

I don't want Milo.

Do you know more Milo humans?

Milo? Leo sounds a lot like no good name if you want to screw up a dog.

Huh, that's right. And we do have a Max in the office, which is the number one. More bears, like the class.

Bear cracks me up too, because imagine being out in the woods and you're looking for your dog, You're screaming bear.

That's like my most sage advice, right, is like whatever you pick, you better be comfortable screaming at in a park full of strangers at the top of your lungs.

Question three, the topic is fishing. Which of the seven natural Wonders of the world is also a world class fishery for Spanish mackerel, black marlin, and giant travali?

Well, now, I gotta remember what the seven wonders are?

Seven natural wonders of the world. Which of the seven natural wonders of the world is also a world class fishery for Spanish mackerel, black marlin and giant travali?

Is this a North American question?

Not giving you any hints? Going back to the last question, Chester did not get one of the top ten male dog names. We are on question three. The topic is fishing, HANSI, do you think you know the seven natural wonders of the world?

Oh?

No, okay, no, definitely not.

You know a few of.

Them natural, maybe a couple.

You are the only folks in the room with an answer. Do you think you have this right?

I think it's gotta be a natural wonder of the world. Okay, if it's but I mean, there's so many unbelievable features that fish love, you know, so absolutely yeah.

Which of the seven natural wonders of the world is also a world class fishery for Spanish mackerel, black marlin and giant Travali is everybody who's going to come up with an answer?

It sure does. I'm pretty hard right now.

Chili, everybody else read go ahead and reveal your answers. Cal flip your board over. We have Cal saying great Barrier Chile without an answer, Hansei saying Amazon River, Kenzie saying Great Barrier Reef, Christie I mean saying Great Barrier reef, Sam saying Great Barrier Reef.

They got it.

The correct answer is the Great Barrier Reef. Well done, room.

I don't even know how.

The Great Barrier Reef makes up ten percent of the world's coral reef ecosystems. It's estimated that there are four thousand tons of fish caught by commercial anglers and two thousand tons of fish caught by recreational anglers in the Great Barrier Reef each year. The main target of commercial anglers are coral trout, which make up forty five percent of the reef's total fish harvest.

That's badass looking fish too. You ever see Captain Ron.

No, is that a movie.

It's a movie. It's won several awards.

And to see tangle with some coral trout.

No, no, but there's a great great barrier reef reference in there. If you're you know, a nautical person.

Well done, room, very impressed. Everyone got that right. Chester did not get that one right.

You love it? Yeah, you're gonna have to watch it.

We are on the question four. The topic is woodsmanship. This next great question comes to is via Steve Corson. If you have a question you think is right for Meat Eater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at the medeater dot com. The acronym b t U as in a camp stove's BTU rating stand thermal unit cal. The acronym b TU as in a camp stove's BTU rating, stands for blank thermal unit.

Everybody should.

Yeah, Sam, you traffic in a lot of gears over here on a daily basis. For your job, we.

Sell many items that are measured in btu's.

And you don't know this one.

No.

I mean I've I've written it writing copy for the meter store, certainly, but uh, I gotta think.

See that acronym A lot bt you is in a camp stoves. Bt U rating stands for a blank thermal unit.

Yeah, this is humbling.

Yeah, I don't know if I'm listening to my intuition very well.

And this is question for Chile in your army days. I imagine this acronym was thrown around a bit as well. Is it ringing any bells?

Uh?

No, no. In correction, since you like to correct.

What do you got?

I was not in the armhole.

I'm sorry, Go ahead correct me.

I was in the Marine Corps. Yeah, there you go. But yeah, we did.

Throw it around and uh drawn blanks here, Spencer, Well look on.

The board, it's practically spelled out for you.

Blank.

I know now, I know how many letters are in it.

That that's not indicative every I like your attention to detail. But anytime I have a fill in the blank, it has five spaces there, so that that is not indicative.

This isn't the best font for doing those little underscore things.

Blank thermal unit.

Starts with a B five spaces. That's not a hint.

That's just not a hint.

It's every anytime I have a fill in the blank, it is five spaces.

I can't think of a B word you can't pay one b word, says hr I can think of one.

It's got to be boring if I think about it for long enough. Just give me a couple of hours.

Mm hmmm. We're waiting for a couple of people here. Blank thermal unit. Is everybody ready one of them? Cal? Is there any chance you have this one wrong? Or you're one hundred percent certain?

I'm one hundred certain, but that doesn't mean I can't be wrong.

I think we're waiting on this side of the table.

I have an answer down I just don't.

Like and we are down to Christine and Sam. Blank thermal unit. You could take your time. There's a lot on the line here.

Starts with the bee and thermal unit.

Thank you, a lot on the line, Chili. Tell us about that hat you have on.

The hat the kevlar another correction up to two now it is.

Yeah, it's called a high cut kevlar, and it's designed well for the military obviously, and then having compelltores, which are basically.

For people who like to accessorize.

It's basically.

You can put like nods, you can put you know, whatever you want on there have party.

He said it was so he could wear his headphones. Well, but he's not even wearing his headphones.

Well, they're not designed for podcast, you.

Know, Sam, we're waiting on you. Ready, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Col saying British, Chili saying but tane, Hansei saying British, McKenzie saying barometric, Christine saying basic, Sam saying bells. The correct answer is British, Col and Hansi. A BTU is a measurement of the amount of heat needed to raise one pound of water through one degree fahrenheit. A gas stove in your home can be up to eighteen thousand BTUs, while a backpacking stove will have about

Haven't we had this question before?

We have not. We can talk about it afterwards. I know what you're thinking of, but it is not the same again. Question five topic is gear The bass pro shops corporate headquarters are located in this state. So confidence from Sam and Chili. Sam, do you have this one right? Yes? Chili, do you have this one right. Maybe is this confidence born out of you guys have been there, you just know the brand that.

Well there many times.

Okay, good on you, Sam, that's gonna help.

I thought I heard something through the grapevine one day. Okay, so yeah, I'm just going with that.

Looking for the state where the bass Pro shops corporate headquarters are located.

I feel like that might have been a little hint there, Sam, Well like they've moved.

Well, well hint as far as if you've been there many times. I know where you're from.

Where you grew up up.

So if I was an educated man, would not I'd go with that.

Chill. He's not gonna let it change his answers.

I might, though. I just saw I was uh in a in a state where uh bass Pro has a store, and uh that store has a hotel on it, and it just got named like the best.

Hotel at school in that state.

I did not find it to be.

Is this informing your answer?

It's not. It's not because it's not. I don't think it's the same.

Does everybody have an answer? Christine, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Camel saying Mississippi Chili saying, oh, Missouri. I believe Missouri is m O not.

Yeah, you're right, that's what mine says too.

We'll give it to you.

Can says Missouri, Chile says Michigan. Hansi says Missouri, Mackenzie says Missouri, Christine says Tennessee. Sam says Missouri. The correct answer is Missouri. The room did pretty well on Chester.

Chester, get that right.

He did get that right. He was just on a bachelor party where he golfed on a bass Pro golf course. I don't know if it's affiliated bass Pro, but I think Johnny Morris owns it. Johnny Morris started the company in nineteen seventy two from the back of his dad's liquor store. At five hundred thousand square feet, the Springfield Bass Pro is the largest in the world. It's complete with waterfalls, aquariums, a gun range, boat showroom, cafe, archery,

It's a pretty impressive place. You were thinking about the pyramid question.

Exactly, and that was in Meshis, which is a question we've had.

But Johnny Morris is like ubiquitous in the Southeast, like he is all over anything conservation related.

I feel like anything started in the back of a liquor store is the start to a good story or as small absolute that.

The Pyramid houses the Ducks Unlimited Museum, and they have. Honestly, it's it's worth going into the Pyramid to check that out. It's a bunch of there's a bunch of cool stuff. Eight gage shotguns and big kegs of powder that they use for market hunting, and a bunch of punt guns and stuff.

It's sweet.

Do they happen to have AMMO for our punt gun?

Yeah?

They do, ye.

Sam James came to us from SIMS. I assume that is why you spent so much time at the corporate headquarters in Missouri.

That's correct, Spencer, Yep, yep. I've been there a bunch of times to talk product with those guys, and I've heard that the like they're they have a room or a warehouse where they store all the trophy mounts that they are getting ready to send out to stores or taken back from stores or moving them around. That it's absolutely unbelievable as you would expect.

Okay, but you haven't seen it.

I haven't seen it. I guess it's a it's.

A great honor maybe to be invited, But we.

Should start that rumor about meat eater. We've got some house somewhere or like all all the mounts in the world are still over there. Yeah, I heard it. I heard that from something.

Those stores are pretty neat. Yeah. Fail.

We are halfway through the game of Trivia, which is episode one of the tournament qualifying round. Give us a scoreboard update.

Yeah, well, unfortunately the the kevlarsn't helping Chili out too much.

Nope, blocking the info.

He's got zero points.

Coming up next though, we've got Sam and Hansei with two points apiece, Mackenzie and Christine with three points apiece, and in first place with four is Ryan Callahan or Hans.

I'm making a comeback.

Yeah.

Question six, The topic is cooking a Chicago style hot dog has so many toppings that it's said to look like it was dragged through the blank. Topic is cooking a Chicago style hot dog has so many toppings that it's said to look like it was dragged through the blank. This is a turn of phrase that everybody uses when describing a Chicago style hot dog?

Everybody, everybody, every single person.

Did live there for four years.

Haven't heard this dragged.

Through the blank experience? You really don't. You don't know this one. It's five Can you can you picture? Don't don't help the room out. Can you picture what a Chicago style hot dog looks like?

Oh?

Yeah, it's it's like it's got very specific parameters too, So I mean not a lot of leeway there.

As someone who's has lived in Chicago four years? Is it harrisy, harrisy for me to say Chicago dogs are whack?

I mean I still make a Chicago hot dog for dinner like once a month. Really, I don't know. Maybe I'm I'm I'm a little.

Ideology, can agree?

I mean I would, I would put the pizza on that on that.

What was your go to place? Were you a lose person?

Were you I was alum naties?

Yeah, yeah, I like lose. My wife and I will have one about once a month. We order from them online. They ship it to you frozen.

It's pretty sweet.

It is Yeah, it's good.

Uh it is.

Ah, it's a lot, it's a lot.

Oh yeah, it's.

The It's hedonism in a package. I mean it's it's like it's a big yeah.

When we've all answered this question gone through it, can you tell us about them? Yeah, because I need to know.

He just bring some hot dogs in and make me Ago.

Style sounds Yeah, top that it's said to look like it was dragged through the blank. Phil, you seem to have some familiarity over there with the Chicago style hot dog? Did you know this answer?

I don't think I would have gotten as someone who can picture a Chicago dog admit their mind's eye.

Okay, I have a word that would be very appropriate, but I don't think it's like Chicago enough.

And then when Hansei brings those hot dogs in, everyone is going to be using this turn of phrase.

Love hot dogs.

Are you gonna make these hot dogs for us on a duck or something like that?

I made duck.

It's staking, uh. Process of I found like the best hot dog grass would be.

Ever.

Ever, like all sources pointed me too, turned a lot of moose meat into hot dogs, and at the end of that process, I absolutely had a hot dog and it was so brutal to make. I was like, this is so stupid. There's nothing moose about it. There was nothing. It was just a hot dog.

Yeah, it's awful process.

Yeah.

You emulsify and emulsify and a mulsify. Yeah, there's milk. Oh yeah, dry milk.

Does everyone have an answer?

Yeah?

Everyone ready, go ahead and reveal your antswer. We have Cal saying gutter, Chili saying streets, Hansi saying garden, Mackenzie saying mud, Christine saying dump, Sam saying trash.

See garden would be like the classy appropriate thing.

Yeah, yeah, I have not like we have a correct answer in the room. HANSI got it. It's garden. A traditional Chicago style high dog is topped with some variation of mustard onions, relish, tomato slices, peppers, and a pickle spear, and delivered in a poppy seed bun. Danielle Pruitt says it's her favorite way to survey venicson hot dog, and you can get her recipe on the meat eater dot

Yeah, I'm going to come back to that. Intuition thing here and you listened. I don't know, I don't know what was going on there.

It just seemed like that doesn't seem Chicago specific at all.

You go ahead and you google it, Google Chicago style hot dog and you'll see the phase.

We've never been wrong.

There's a lot more vegetables than I think are in a lot of Chicago foods. Yeah, that makes sense.

Chester did not get that one right. We are on to question seven. The topic is hunting. What hunting show did Michael Wattell start in two thousand and eight?

Uh?

Who the hell is Michael want?

Former guests of the Mediator podcast.

There's a hint for our players. What hunting show did Michael watt Ell start in two thousand and eight? The room is stumped. Cal coming up with an answer. He may be the only one. What hunting show did Michael Wattell start in two thousand and eight? HANSI tell me about what goes on your Chicago style hot dogs that you make once a month.

Pepper and genies, celery leaves, oh a pickle, okay? And those are like mustews, pickle spear pickles, pickle spear yep onion mustard and uh, I like a little celery salt sprinkle on top.

I feel like celery salt is a must do.

Yeah also right, yeah, well, I don't know, it's I don't know if you see it everywhere, but like the thing that I feel like cooking wise, there are some parameters too, and people I think it really polarized about that, like cooked on a flat top, riddle sure, or steamed like in that like hot dog water steaming like out of a cart next to the park. That's like real classic.

Yeah, I mean that's the steamed bun to where it's super gooey too. That's yeah, that's it. That's a delicious little treat right there.

Put that in the bag after, you know, put it in the oven.

Put it in a bag, Hansei. It sounds like your hot dog was dragged through the garden. Lots of veggies on there.

Yeah, you know, I've googled that. It's all over the only way everyone refers to a Chicago style hot dog again. Question, I feel like there's many neighborhoods in Chicago where you would get your ass kicked if you were like drag that thing through the garden.

Yeah, That's where I was coming at with trash.

I figured it's like a white sox versus cups.

That line of thinking was very impressive that everyone went there because even Chester's answer I think was sewer. We had gutter sewer trash, uh guar. Everyone was very dismissive of a Chicago style hot dog. They wanted it to be gross.

I thought I was gonna have like chili cheese, like Hallapenians all that. Yeah, that's why I said the MUDs.

Is everyone who's coming up with an answer, have an answer for the hunting show that Michael Waddell started in two thousand and eight.

Everybody ready, No, man, I'm struggling this round.

Yeah, I'm not doing too good.

Three are you coming up with an answer?

Yeah? I'm coming up with one.

But that's that's that's all we're doing. Cal how do you feel about your answer? You were the quickest, but still not very fast.

I want to say that I really enjoyed Michael Waddell on the show. I've met him several times prior to that. Always a nice dude. Yeah, I can't have ever seen his show.

Okay, I literally can't think of anything.

So it's once HANDI is done writing, we're going to flip over the boards.

He's writing a story.

Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal. Flip that over. Cal saying bone collector, Chili without an answer, Hansi saying shooting big stuff out in the woods with other people. Mackenzie without an answer, Christine saying backwoods. Sam saying Wadell's hunts. The correct answer is bone collector.

Cal got it right.

You know, I was thinking that, but I thought that was somebody else, and I thought it was older than Oh.

Wait, Whatdell said? He started the show to stand up for hunting culture. His audience is referred to as the Brotherhood, and his co hosts are Nick Munt and Travis T. Bone Turner. For more on Waddell's journey, listen to episode three point fifteen of Meat Eater and episode three sixteen of Meat Eater Trivia. Question eight, we will get a scoreboard update from Phil after this, and question seven was

Once. I'd like to know, is the percentage of fishing questions that are about fly fishing or about conventional fishing.

It's a good question. I try to have equal representation across pursuits and the country. No fly fishing questions in this round, though, Mackenzie. This style of jig, which shares its name with a sport is designed so it won't fall over on its side. No one in the room has come up with an answer yet.

This is an international sport.

Not going to help you, Chilie. Tell me an example of a sport that's not international.

You think, fair point, fair point. I'm not going to answer your question, and I want to is it.

A real sport like something you play with your hands?

Not gonna give you any hints.

Five letters, Yeah in the Olympics.

I'll just drag this one through the gardens.

This style of jig, which shares its name with a sport is designed so that it won't fall over on its side.

I wish you could phone a friend.

Who would you call if you could?

Probably my dad.

Call Chester Chester, Yeah, Chester yourself.

The room is slow to come up with an answer. I would encourage you to write down some sport though, if you are feeling stumped. This style of jig, which shares its name with a sport, is designed so that it won't fall over on its side. This is question eight. We will get a scoreboard update from Phil after this as a reminder to people from this room are going to move on to the championship. Cal, I think we are waiting on you.

Oh no, I have not.

We're waiting on.

Your side, all of them, pretty much.

Mackenzie, we are waiting on the air. Mhm again, This is question eight.

Christine, hold on one second, Okay, forget it, it's over.

Go ahead, and Cal saying football, Chili saying bowling, Hansei saying football, Mackenzie saying skiing, Christine saying skiing. Say I'm saying football. All the correct answer is football. The room did pretty well. The football jig was developed to be dragged and always stay in contact with the bottom, but once bass anglers noticed how well the jig could navigate structure became more common for fishermen to hop it instead

Won't tip over?

Got it?

Did you? Guys just guess that because you were thinking of like a sport and football was the first one to come to mind.

I was thinking that though, like the football can't like it can't, you can't side. But I was also like thinking about bowling for whatever reason the whole.

Time, kind of like that's the only one.

Yeah, yeah, hard to tip over a bowling ball exactly.

We have two questions left. Give us a leader board update.

It looks like Chili.

Will not be participating in the final.

Didn't want to go any zero points, But we've.

Got everyone else is still in the running. We've got Sam McKenzie, Christine and Chester all with three points apiece, Hansi has four, and Cols in first place with six points.

Child drop of like the next qualifying round, right, could he squeeze back in?

We could probably make that work, you know. And uh, I don't follow hockey very closely, but in the NHL they have like one guy who drives the Zamboni, who is like the backup, backup, backup goalie, backup goalie gets hurt, they like employ some dude who works at the arena to come in and play. And it's like a very exciting thing. Whenever it happened, Yeah, the team, and.

My wife does she's she's a hockey player. She plays on like several teams.

I don't know the answer to that count. When it happens though, it's like the leading story on Sports Center. Johnny Zamboni got to come in and he he only allowed three goals against. Question nine, the topic is conservation. This next great question comes to is via justin sorry. If you have a question you think is right for meat Eater Trivia, you can send it to trivia at

Call Yeah Yeah.

This conservation law that blocks the trade of illegally taken wildlife is named after the Iowa congressman who introduced it. Back to the point, I was making chili. You can be chile Zamboni. If someone can't make it to the championship. You are our son.

You know, I'd be honored because every time I've seen one of those Zamboni guys come in as goalie, they always come in and just crush it, you know.

So that's what I'm hoping for. But I won't be upset if I don't get invited back.

The room is looking stumped. For the conservation law that blocks the trade of illegally taken wildlife and it's named after the Iowa congressman who introduced it.

Oh my god, this is gonna be I talk about this in there somewhere, no exaggeration, once every two weeks for sure.

So what what do you think I.

Can I can corroborate?

What do you think the issue is that at this time? Cal why it's not coming to you?

I mean, it's the issue that I always have on this.

It's like the pressure.

I start off well and then I get to the later rounds and I'm kind of like, oh wait, what happened? Son of a beasting?

This conservation law that blocks the trade of illegally taken wildlife is named after the Iowa congressman who introduced it. I don't think anybody has an answer yet.

Short history of the law.

Ah.

This conservation law that blocks the trade of illegally taken wildlife is named after the Iowa congressman who introduced it.

This is a toughy round.

This is question nine. Another school board update from Phil after this, you know.

What's fun is like we've had questions on trivia for certain individuals.

Mm hmmm, mm hmm. You feel like this one was pitched to you.

Oh, this is so easy. Just for the record, Like in the game of baseball, I was the kid who could like sit at a third base and get line drives drilled at him all day and never screw it up. Okay, the second a pop fly happened, I had just had too much time to think and.

Time.

Maybe if this was question two instead of question nine, then you would have you would have had a chance at it. This conservation law that blocks the trade of illegally taken wildlife is named after the Iowa congressman who introduced it. We have a lot of blank boards in the room.

This is so stupid.

It's gonna hurt.

It's gonna hurt. He not to add extra pressure, but I think if you get this one right, you will move on to the championship despite there being another question.

But it gives the rest of us a change.

It's going to make it interesting if he drops this pop fly though.

I think I know the first letter, and I just can't, like I keep saying every other word with this letter.

It's everybody ready, just that much Chili. Chili has not picked up his board or marker. Just tell us what you're thinking about over there, Chili.

Oh, you know how I'm While you guys are stressing out about whoever goes on to the next round. I'm just gonna be sitting in my office.

Chili, I got some upstairs.

Drink and me.

It appears as though it just came to Cal.

Oh wow, that's this is exciting.

A spirit moved through the room and whispered in the answer.

I just had to go through like the one hundred and fifty cases that I've talked about involving He.

Was going through his favorite Iowa in Congress people. Yeah, exactly that, Yes, Smith Jones.

I know, and I was doing it alphabetically. Everybody ready, Just sure, I don't.

Know, go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying lazy Chili with out an answer Hansei saying, Davidson, Keenzie saying el, Christine sang holland Sam saying Johnson, Cal got it. The correct answer is the Lacy Act never would have gotten that. The Lacy Act of nineteen hundred was introduced by Republican John F. Lacey and signed by President William McKinley. It protects plants and animals by creating civil and criminal penalties for a wide array of violations.

Got Chili, sorry, Chilli.

Had when he came if you guessed it zero?

Moving on, we got Sam, McKenzie, Christine Anchester, all still with three points. Hansei has four, and Cal took that one with a seven, So.

We have cow. Moving on, we have Hansei. If he gets this one right, he will move on. If he gets it wrong in any of us, any of these three or Chester get it right, then we would have a tie breaker reminder two of you will move on to the championship.

All right, it's serious time.

Question ten. The topic is woodsmanship. Cotton Balls, shaved bark, and dry grass are all examples of this, which also happens to be an app that's owned by the match group.

What the hell? I know? Where you going to do an app?

I know it, I know it, I know it.

Cotton Balls, shaved bark, and dry grass are all examples of this, which also happens to be an app that's owned by the match group. Hansei, do you have this one right?

No?

Okay, Now going to potentially make it interesting, I'm gonna guess we have Sam, Christine, McKenzie and Chester who all still have a chance if Hansey were to get this wrong.

Not that it matters, but I feel very confident in my answer. Okay, So how you start till you finish?

There you go, Hansei, You've had a little more time waiting for me. Well, no, I don't think we're waiting on you. So I just want to take a temperatures has your confidence changed?

We should rush him so that he doesn't get it right, and not to put any more pressure on Hanse but Spencer, purely hypothetically, if we do have a tiebreaker, how are we going to get Chester?

I already asked Chester the tireaker tie breaking answer. I think we're waiting on Hanse at this point, Sam, do you have this right?

I think so, Christine do you have this right?

I don't know.

Mackenzie, do you have this right? Hansei? Are you ready?

You want to? You want to know what my fun hint would be, No, no, no.

Anything wrong? No, Because then Hansey automatically went, HANSI, we're waiting on you.

Coton Ball, shaved Bark, and dry Grass are all examples of this, which also happens to be an app that's owned by the match group.

Christine, I'm crossing off the one that I.

Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Cal saying tinder, Chili saying kindle, Hansey saying Hanse, Mackenzie saying tinder, Christine's saying fire, kindling, Sam saying tinder. Sam, the correct answer is tinder, meaning we are going to a tiebreaker with Hansei, Mackenzie, Sam, and Chest There's going to also got this one right. The definition of tinder is quote, a very flammable substance

And I thought the lazy answer hurt that one?

Just really Who in this app is familiar with tinder? Chili? Have you been that? I don't know.

I like kindle nice.

I was like, yeah, fire match, No, I have no idea what tinder is.

Never heard of her?

Never heard of her. We are going to a tiebreaker play the drop, Phil.

I they just cut it at if you ain't first your laugh and then like going to other stuff.

It's funny.

I never liked it a Phil cough Man again. We are down to Hansei, Mackenzie, Sam and Chester. The tie breaking topic is mountain men, and as always, this will be numerical, so the person with the closest answer will be declared the winner. What year did the movie Jeremiah Johnson come out?

Boy?

Why you gotta do a dirty like that?

What year did the movie Jeremiah Johnson come out? I will encourage everyone to play along, even if they're not in the tiebreaker. Somebody could get it right on the nose, and we will add an extra one hundred dollars donation to the end of the game.

I got it.

This has nothing to do with you, Spencer. It's not a criticism of you at all. This is more of like the outdoor industry in general. This is like the only movie that has ever referenced it comes to like the outdoors and mountain Men. It's like it's it's always like I think we've had several trivia questions about it's like the only movie Clay has seen.

I think, well, I'll tell you this our founder Steve Burnell, it's his favorite movie of all time. Yeah, and I'm guessing that contributes to that.

There was one a couple of weeks ago with hatchet Jack or.

Wrote about that.

Is there anybody in the room that hasn't seen the movie?

I'm not.

Are you familiar with what it is? Mackenzie?

So yeah, there's that's not even it. I just don't watch movies.

You know.

There's a hint you don't know the main actor's name.

I don't know. That's not helping anybody out. There's a lot on the line and figure how confident are you in your answer?

Like fifty six percent?

Like yeah, close, yeah, the uper hand. You've seen this movie.

I've seen this movie.

How confident are you in your answer?

Low? Low confidence?

You have not seen the movie? Have you? Are you familiar with it at all enough to like be in the ballpark?

Maybe?

Okay, we'll see I'm within.

Four years. Okay, I'm guessing.

Is everybody ready again a spot on the line to move to the championship, Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have cal saying nineteen eighty four, Chili without an answer, Hansi saying nineteen sixty nine, Mackenzie saying nineteen seventy nine, Christine saying nineteen seventy, Sam saying nineteen seventy eight, and Chester saying nineteen sixty eight. One of you is within three years of the correct answer.

I was thinking it was nineteen seventy nine.

Sorry. One of you is within two years of the correct answer. The correct answer is nineteen seventy two, making Hansi our winner time ranking around. He said, Hansie, so close you beat Chester, you beat one year. I don't blame you one year. So that's the closest I've ever been well done? Hansei, may you a peak behind the curtain. Hanse got the invite last night to come play, and then here he is now moving out of the championship. Hansei Zamboni over.

Am.

It was late, it was late, and here he is.

It shows up no preparation.

And Mackenzie, on the other hand, had been studying for this, she said, and so close, so close. So we have Hansei and Cal moving on. Col was the winner. Now, ordinarily, at this part of the game, Cal would get to choose where the five hundred dollars donation for meat Eater goes. But because this is part of the tournament, we're going to do something a little different. Here's what's going to happen. We are banking each donation until the end of the tournament.

Can I have a veto vote on that?

Well, you can. You could just win the tournament. That you could win the tournament.

I mean, come on, there's some conservation always has to win.

Yeah, that's right.

All right now, CONSERVATIONSI and.

Cal Moving on to episodes three and four. Well done, room, you made it interesting.

Did we talk enough to each other?

It was?

It was good. This will be a this is.

I think we got stumped so many damn times.

Join us next time for more Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where Conservation always wins.

That was a lot of patience from our host on the Yeah, he's generous.

Feels like I'm on vacation.
