These two are doing all the things, writing, directing, producing at go CO Films GOC Films. Follow them there, give them a follow, Chris, What charity are you playing for today? I am playing for the Equal Justice Initiative, which is a group. Think. They're in Alabama,

right, I know it's hard to remember Louisiana and Alabama. I think it's Alabama. Doesn't matter. They're committed to the ending of mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States. They are committed to challenging racial and economic injustice and to protecting basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society. And I first came across them when I was doing twelve years a slave and they asked me to come down and I learned so much which I already knew.

We know, we know, it's a racist country. Stop, we know. But he was giving just receipts in twenty when was that eleven twelve? Yeah, he was giving literally as all the receipts of two kids, same age, same town, same crime. One got put in life, put in jail for life, and one got a pat on the back. And I guess we can assume which one was the young black man and he is. That's just one of the thousands of cases that they are trying to bring to justice to make it a little bit more fair for us. Yeah.

Well again, we are happy to make a donation in your name to the Equal Justice Initiative EJ I win or lose. You know, these incredibly important charities we are playing for today. You know are fantastic and talented guests, but it's time to get down to brass tacks. Go over our answers to realize why we shouldn't pay attention to these two people. Let's go over your answers for the general knowledge round. I think you guys got some right.

I think you'll surprise ourselves. So let's start us off with question number one of eight was what twenty nineteen film was director Jordan Peel's second studio feature film, Katie, start us off. What did you get for number one? US? US? Chris? What did you put for number one? I also wrote down US US and US. The correct answer is US one for one with US. I almost wrote them down. It's a different show.

Yeah. Question number two sports question in the general Knowledge round. Kaitlyn Clark recently became the first Division one college basketball player to record over three thousand points, nine hundred plus assists, and eight hundred plus rebounds. What Big Ten school does she play for, mister chalk. So obviously I'm a huge Kaitlin Clark fan. I know everything about her, and I guess the place that it looks like she's from Oklahoma. Glawhom a very good guest, KD.

What did you put I wrote down? I wrote down Louisiana school coach Kim you got wrote and I wrote down Kansas slash Kansas. It could be LSU or Kansas. You're just going to name is ment. I'll let you name a few more college. We still won't get it right. In the state Florida state. But she's really good, though, she really is. She's been my favorite, but she's really good. Yeah, she's an excellent

basketball player and she'll be she'll be doing well in the w NBA. I think I think this is her senior year, Caitlyn Clark, but she plays for the Black and Gold, the Hawkeyes of Iowa. She plays for Iowa. That same thing. No disrespect, but that's the same having not been there and knowing nothing about either place. Wait, Kansas, do I get half a point? No? I wish, I wish I could one for

the rules. Yeah, let's see if we're back at it. For question number three, the hula hoop has been around for centuries, but the Whammo company popularized the plastic hula hoop in the United States. And the latter part of what decade? I needed a decade? Form number three, KD. What did you choose? I'm going to guess eighties eighty time of the plastics plastics, Chris, what did you put? I wrote the nineteen eighties?

And I have another question, what was it made up before people? I think I looked it up and people had been using you know, bamboo, steal, different different things, one hundreds of years ago. It's been around since like ancient Greece the first Like I think it was something crazy. It's like it's been around for many, many years. But Whammo when they did it in plastic, it was just a sensation. It took off and they sold Yeah, I think it was like twenty five million hula hoops in one

year, in the span of two years. And that was in the decade of the nineteen fifties. It was the fifth one. Oh, we're never going to make it college and I was going to get to college like that. I think it was in particular. I think it was from between like nineteen fifty eight and fifty nine, is when just they were everywhere. Everyone said, because this thing. It's like after the seventies they were fucking and partying and worried about war. They're not grabbing fucking hula hoops. Dude.

The fifties they didn't have ship to do. They have anything. They have anything, poor guys. But they threw me off with the wammo because very eighty to me. I mean, we're in the eighties. Well, well, wammo too. I think they started with the hula hoop, and then the frisbee was assumed to follow where they like they probably should. And then I think in our world that's when they had like they had a I looked at Whammo too, and it's like they came out with the slipping slide I

think in the seventies. So that was more our era and a and a few other things. But whammo. Yeah, it was like hula hoop. The frisbee and slipping slide were like their three big ones. I think. So did they create frisbee golf? I doubt. I think just some Like someone that was doing a lot of bong reps was like, I got it. I got it because it's such a stone or sport. Due no, we know a professional player. Actually I played disc golf. It hasn't been for a while, but it is. It's fun, super fun. We

played every day during the pandemic. Yeah, we got embarrassing at a sport we can't tell our friends we play. Did you have like the different side in our storage room right now? We have? You know, because some slide to the less, some slide to the right. I make fun of the sport. I love it. That is awesome. You guys are like quiet ringers at disc all. Right, back to the game. Question number four was a toughie. What Colombian author wrote the novels Love and the Times

of Cholera and one Hundred Years of Solitude? Chris, what did you get for number four? Obviously I got this correct. I'm going to go with Malcolm Jamal Warner, Malcolm Theo, Malcolm Jamal Warner, Katy, did you write the same answer? Did you get the same exact answer? Is that I wrote. Tell me the name of another book, Oscar Wow, Oscar Wild. He's one of my I see what you yea, I see what you're doing. Is that that's not the same person, though, is it?

No, we didn't got it wrong. It's okay. This is a deeper cut. This again, you see this, this, These novels on like you know, the hundred Books or the best novels of all times. So it's a class These are classics and it's from the Colombian author. His name is Gabrielle Garcia Marquez. Gabrielle Garcia Matickez wrote both of those. I feel okay about not knowing that. Yeah, it's a it's a deeper cut. It's not like I knew it and didn't remember it. It's I never

knew it never n I'm okay with things I never know. Is it worth the read? I have heard they are worth the reads for sure. I have both of them on my shelf, and I think this is the year I'm gonna I'm going to crack one of them, open up it. They've been on my shelf for years, and it's like I need to read one of those classics. So I'm excited to break into it. Question No. Number five. This, this question, if you get it right, makes

you feel dirty for knowing it, not knowing marks. But scan of all was a phenomenon that emanated from what Bravo reality show KD I wrote vander Pump Rules and Dick Band of Pump Rules and below shows Deak. Those are two different shows. But Christ, what did you put Chris? Shit? Is it the below? I wrote vand Rules? But now I'm feeling insecure about it. I'm going to stop everyone right there. Let's just go with your first answers, Pump Rules, You got it right? Yes, I'd like

you all to know. Everyone listening, why I know that before you you know, think I'm an ally or or think I'm a bad person. Whatever you think, you're wrong. There's a show called Secret Celebrity. Was that the you know, the survival show where the celebrities go Celebrity Special Forces And the guy who the bad guys on it, he like who they all hate, and he just talked about it constant he's like the most depressed human I have ever seen. And I was like, oh, he's definitely gonna jump.

Like this guy is miserable. He said, I'm on your show because I need to punish myself. I know you've heard of me, Vander pump and he always talked about and they're like, nah, bro, we don't know who you are. It was fascinating, but he did really well on the show. They didn't hate him. They hated him. That's that like Fox like contest show where he's a bunch of Balenty stars or just stars of Yesteryear that are doing like like jumping off bridges and scaling walls and they're trying

they're trying to do the Special Forces test. I think the show started like in Australia. Uh. And you know, if something successful Americas like money, so they added celebrities. I think it'd be better with real people. But it is fun to meet Van pump Man whatever his name is. After all of that, you nailed it for question number five. It is Vander Pumps where scandal all came from? Right? Yeah? Question number six,

how many wisdom teeth do most humans have? Chris four four KD What did you put, I wrote four, but I only have three and I currently have one left left.

to? You guys did great in the wine category. Number one, Cabernet savignon, it's number one. You didn't know that. Uh. Number three you said it after the bell was Pino griege, Pino grigio. Uh. Number seven white zinfandel is number seven on the list. Number eight lesser known one or I think that you see is mal Beck it's gotten more famous recently. And then number nine not my favorite reasoning reson very like sweet white wine. I think freasling. But you did well in the Phoebe wine question.

But now it's your turning the barrel KD. You can choose from either Rachel or Monica for your lightning round question. I don't know, Rachel Rachel. I'm going for Rachel doing the Rachel. Here we go. Here is your Rachel question. The Monica question was kind of a actor movie question, but that'll just go back into the hopper for a future game. We had a chance. I know you blew it. You picked wrong. It might have been hard. You don't know. Here is your Rachel lightning round question.

I'm going to say it twice. Sego. You're in twenty seconds. Katie, give me as many answers as possible, and then Chris, Yeah, write some answers down because I'm coming straight to you for your five second or here's your Rachel question. Top nine most populous cities in the state of Texas. So I need the top nine most populous cities in the state of Texas. Twenty seconds on the clock, KD and go Austin, Houston, Dallas, Hollywood, Prairie View. Stop. You got three of the top four.

You got three of the top four. You got Houston, you got Houston, you got Dallas, and you got Austin. Those are three of the top four. But there's still plenty on the list. Chris, your five second rebuttal to try and steal some answers. Here top nine most populous cities in Tejas. Five seconds and a'll go Milkfish, Louisville, Drabi, Shims, Bloom, Kirby, Knoxville. Stop stop, stop, stop, you didn't steal any from your cast. Let's go over your answers didn't get

to These are the most populous cities in Texas. Number two, remember the Alamo and San Antonio, San Antonio Texas Spurs. Spurs thought of sports teams. Yeah, then you said Dallas and its next door neighbor. Number five is fort Worth. Fort Worth is considered its own Fort Worth Fish out west. You got El Paso right on the border there. Question Number seven or number seven on the thing was Arlington, which is very close. I think

one of the Cowboys have their stadium is in Arlington, Virginia. Then on the Gulf coast you have Corpus Christi is number eight, and then Plano. That's a tough one. Plano, Texas is number nine most populous. I like how you said Plano is the tough one, like the others were. Hell Plano, that one's that I should have known Waco did No, I don't think you said Waco. Did you say Waco? I did not say

Waco. I thought I thought, I'm just trying my best man. I did think like Waco and Lubbock, some of the college towns would beyond there, and I think they were just below this. They were like in the top twenty most populous cities. But we have a scoreboard update after a very fun lightning round. We have Chris Chalk with eleven and we have KD in the lead with seventeen to eleven after three rounds. As we enter our fourth and final round between you two, Round four, the Double Duty. It's

our Theodore Double Duty Radcliffe round. We call it the Double Duty because points are doubled and there are nine questions in this round, so there are eighteen very important points up for grabs in this double duty round. Today. The category in round four is US history, but more specifically, it's stuff that happened a decade ago in the year twenty fourteen. So these are all big happenings and things that happened in the year twenty fourteen. Here is question number

one of nine. On January first, provisions of Obamacare, or the ACA, went into effect in twenty fourteen. What does the ACA stand for? What does that acronym stand for? People dubbed it Obamacare, but it was called the ACA. What does the ACA stand for for? Question number one? Question number two, All fifty states reported sub zero temps in January on a couple days in January, most of which were brought on by what two word weather phenomenon? You hear this a lot in the winter time here in

North America. All fifty states reported sub zero temps all fifty, which is nuts, and a lot of that was due to what two word weather phenomenon? For questions, bro, oh my god, you went about thousand and you wanted to choot. We were of like mind. I think yours is right. I think yours is right. We will soon find out very serious,

all right? Question number three.

What city switched its water source to a local river that resulted in over ten thousand cases of lead poisoning and fifteen deaths

from legionaires disease? That was a decade ago that all of this started in Fort City? Yeah, what city switched its water source to a local river that resulted in over ten thousand cases of lead poisoning and fifteen deaths from Legionnaire's disease. Unbelievable. For question six, question number seven at the Emmy Awards,

can you name the ABC sitcom that won Outstanding Comedy Series? And can you name the AMC show that won Outstanding Drama Series in twenty fourteen Comedy and Drama again at the I forget I think it was the sixty sixth Emmy Awards.

Yeah, it was an ABC sitcom. Question

number eight. There was a mass of hack into what studio? Releasing tons of confidential data and question oh yeah, So so number one is name the studio. That's the main question. And then I'll give you a bonus point or two if you can tell me what seth Rogan slash James Franco film was at the center of the controversy as the hackers demanded that the film be released to the public. So can you name the studio? Yeah, see the trailer see the trailer and I know which they're messing with. Yeah, so

can you name the studio? Is like the main question, like a bonus if you can name that film that Franco And it all comes down to this question number nine, President Obama announces the resumption of normal relations as well as the end of a decades long, decades long embargo of what nearby nation? In twenty fourteen, again for question number nine, President Obama announces the resumption of normal relations as well as the end to a decades long embargo of what

nearby nation? Back in twenty fourteen, named that country for question number nine six point lead but pencils down. Let's go over our answers in the Theodore Double Duty Radcliffe Round today, we were talking about some US history from a very specific year. It was a decade ago. Things that happened in twenty fourteen. Question number one. On January first, provisions of Obamacare or the ACA went into effect. What does the ACA stand for? KD? What

did you put for number one? I put American Comrades Association. American Comrades Association. So what did you put? Because I'm much harder than my wife, let it go down that I wrote the American American Chiropractic Association American Chiropractic I don't think we know. No, I was gonna put cancer, but why would anyone sign up for that? Oh? I don't think we know. Let us know how soon we forget. I mean everyone called it Obamacare for most of the last ten years, but the ACA was known as the

Affordable Care Act. It happens to the best of us. That's all good. It was too lazy to sign up at the time. That's that's a good one to have missed. Maybe what are you worried about? Yeah, no harm, no foul. The score is one of that question number two. All fifty states, which is incredible, reported sub zero tempts, and a lot of that was due to what to word weather phenomenon that seems to show up almost every year. Now, Chris, what did you put for

number two? I didn't put the right thing. I put a northeaster, a nor easter. That's a great guess. KD. What did you put? I put l nine Yo, great guesses both weather phenomena that do do a lot of this stuff. But the correct answer is a polar vortex. Oh my gosh, vortex is like us. Yeah, I guess it's like a yeah, an area of very very cold there that's usually circling the Arctic or the Antarctic. The jet stream gets funky and it comes all the way

down and comes await and freezes everybody at that question number three? Here we go in February what NFC West team led by the great defensive backfield dubbed the Legion of Boom defeat of the Denver Broncos forty three to eight in Super Bowl forty eight? KD. Did you come up with a team for question number three? You know this? I put the Patriots, and then I put the Giants, and then and then you put the Charlotte Hornets. Atriots is

a good guest because they were in quite a few Super Bowls? Did they win a lot this era? Chris? What did you put for number three? I wrote down the Seattle Seahawks. Richard Sherman. Yeah, yeah, Richard Sherman was a part of Guess what the Legion of Boom? It is? In fact, the Seattle Seahawks for question number three. Two big points for Chris for question number three, calling Chris Joe question number four at the eighty sixth Annual Academy Awards, Alfonso Caron one Best Director for what out of

This World film? Chris, Oh, no, I feel insecure about this, but I'm going to say gravity. I think you got that right, Gravity, kad do you agree with that? Or did you go your own way? I wrote Birdman, but then I listened to your words and you said out of this World? So it's Birdman or Gravity. The correct answer is gravity. Good job. It is an incredible soundtrack. It is a two point game right now, Katie's got a very slim lead. Now.

Question number five, what VR company that derives its name from the Latin word for I, as in your eyeball was bought by Facebook for a cool two billion dollars? KD What did you put for number five? I'm going to go for Oculus? Oculus, Chris, what did you put for number five? That's an espanols. We have all hosts an oculus. The correct answer is Oculus. That was so good, dude, that was so good. That was so good. That's a huge answer right there. Oculus is the

answer for number five. Question number six, what city switched its water source to a local river that resulted in over ten thousand cases? Of lead poisoning and fifteen deaths from Legionnaire's disease. Chris, what did you put for number six? I just wrote, I'm so sorry. I don't want to make a joke about it. It's that's fucked up and I don't know the answer, but that's so upsetting. Yeah, brutal KD. Do you remember this town? I thought it was Detroit, but now I'm at Lsia. Guess

I'm guessing. I'm guessing Detroit the great guess you're very close. You're in the neck of the woods. It is Flint Mission. Oh god, I was gonna guess Flint. I thought Flint was much more recent it started, and that's what I thought. Oh, you could be the young gentleman that was made little miss Flint. She's now an adult. Oh it's been that long. She's still advocating and I Yeah, that's what's kind of crazy is

this. They switched it over a decade ago, and we've been feeling the ramifications for a decade in that whole town of Flint that's already been through so much with all the auto plants closing, you know, in the eighties and nineties. It's just that town deserves some love for once, but it is unfortunately Flint, Michigan. For number six, Question number seven, we're going to the Emmy Awards. Can you name the ABC sitcom that one Outstanding Comedy

series? And can you name the AMC show that one Outstanding Drama series? Kd I said Modern Family and Breaking Bad, Modern Family and Breaking Bad. Chris, what did you put for number seven? Oh, comedy to get Away with Mud and Breaking Bad? I wrote, Oh no, I forgot the how to answer questions, So this is what the answer is. The ABC sitcom is Modern the Family, and the AMC drama is Breaking Bad. So we'll give two points to kad and we'll give one to Chris. For

question number seven. Question number eight, there was a massive hack into What Studio, releasing tons of confidential data and embarrassing emails and information. Bonus point? What seth Rogan James Franco film was at the center of the controversy, as the hackers demanded that the film not be released to the public. Chris,

what did you get for number eight? Okay, okay, okay, I don't think this is right, but I wrote Sony and the Interrogation, Sony and the interrogation, Katie, what did you put for a number? I also put Sony and I have no idea the name of the movie. Remember, so you're gonna get the two points because you both nailed Sony. Was that studio that got hacked? They had all those embarrassing emails where the higher ups were just talking the worst shit about everybody. Awful affl the movie.

The movie starring James Franco and Seth Rogan and even Randall Park who was playing Kim Jong un. They had to like get him security for a time because of all the threats. It's that's a dangerous game. That movie was called The Interview. The Interview my first us. I knew it was inter something. You were so close, But you got Sony. You nailed Sony,

so you got the two points. Apiece comes down to this. President Obama announces the resumption of normal relations as well as the end of a decades long embargo to what nearby nation kd the Bahamas, Obamas, fuck the Chris. What did you put for number nine? Cuba? Cuba? Yeah it might not be right, bro, No it's right. We have Bahamas, which are very close to the United States, and Cuba, which is very close to I think eighty miles off the coast of Florida. The correct answer

is the book is Cuba. It is Tuba for sure, and I went to Cuba right after it happens. So we both miss Flint, so on both of us. So we are tabulating our score. Here's our final score update. We have Chris Chalk with twenty points win. Obviously talk with nineteen twenty three baby Chris closed the gap. But Katie Chalk, you are in fact the smartest person in the world for one week. Wow amazing. Uh So our champ KD. Chalk. You can follow on social media at k

It was a pleasure, It was a please head to head. But the game is not over. It is time now the final throwdown, the final throwdown. This is where Annie, our producer, is going to come back and give us kind of a one off

question. We can discuss what's what and come up with some answers between the three of us, and then Annie will reveal the answer and we're all going to learn a little something something about this question and it's answer. So Annie Roberts, without further put up the final throwdown question. I'll read it to the world a couple times. What percentage of players has Lebron James played in the whole of the NBA? Okay, so we could each come up with

one, she says. Closest guest wins. What percentage of players has Lebron James played against in the hole in the entirety the history of the NBA. He's been playing so long, He's been playing twenty years? Wow? And how long was it as the NBA existed? Yeah? What percentage of players has Lebron James played against in the whole of or maybe is it just the whole of the NBA as of right now or in the history is that the history? I guess we'll have to I don't know if that's a huge caveat

all in the history of the NBA. Holy shit, that's a great question. That's a great question. I did see something recently where there's a soccer player who's like in his like mid forties that's still playing in the Premiership and I saw like an astounding, you know, headline that said this, this old defender has played against you know, like sixty percent of the premiership players in all of its history or something something crazy. So I don't I don't

know if it's that high. But KD, do you have any thoughts, Chris? Do you have any thoughts? Like a number? Yeah, yeah, I got the answer. Oh, okay, KD, start us off. What number are you coming up with? Forty four percent? Ooh, that's good. Forty four percent from KD? Chris, what do you got? Sixty six percent? He's sixty six percent. I will go right in the middle, just to just to smart'. I won't do the one dollar you know, like on price is right, where I just say one dollar,

I'll say double nickel. So we got forty four, fifty five and sixty six. So we got some some fun numbers there. Let's let's see the answer, Annie, and let's learn about Lebron the King and how many people he's played against. So kd is the winner. She was closest with thirty five percent. He's played with against thirty five percent of all players. Ever, so there have been about forty eight hundred players that have played one

game in the NBA. Lebron James has faced about eighteen hundred in his twenty one season so far. Vince Carter has James beat with facing thirty seven percent in his twenty two seasons. Yeah, Vince played forever and cold currently holds the longest career in the NBA. But if Leabrain won't you talk to me, he can. He can play a few more years and he'll he'll get that percentage up over thirty seven percent. So he's close. But thirty five

percent is your winner. So Kad was closest with forty four percent. I believe, Yeah, yeah, you two. It was a pleasure to have you on the pod giving us one of the most memorable games we've had in a while and a continued success, and can't wait to see you in person.
