new episodes until the strike is over.

Absolutely, Mike, So the twenty four hour Game Show Marathon is. This is our tenth
year doing it. And what we do is me and Christian and a ton of our friends, game show friends, just regular friends. We pile into a TV studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and with software, buzzers, lights, sound, the whole shebang, we recreate twenty four of our favorite game shows all to raise money for Child's Play. Child's Play is Christian right.
Child's Play is a charity that provides not only toys and games and gaming consoles to children in hospitals across America, but also provides services, therapy, anything revolving around the power of play, which is a goal that definitely spoke to me, spoke to Corey, spoke to a lot of the people that are
involved with the Game Show Marathon for whom play is important. This is something that we look forward to every year, not only as a charity event, but an opportunity to celebrate this type of television that we all love so much, and to do it in person is an added bonus. We took a break during COVID, but we came back last year, broke our record, raised over eleven thousand dollars alone last year for Child's Play, and so we
are looking forward to doing even better this year. That is wonderful. We're happy to give a double donation to Child's Play to help out with the twenty four hour Game Show Marathon again, that's gonna be June third. Where can people watch or participator or see all the festivities of the Game Show Marathon. Yeah, so if they want to watch or donate, they can go to
our website, Game Show Marathon dot com. At the top they'll see our little twitch feed where once we go live, you can watch the whole action. You can also donate and see what games will be playing as well. Beautiful. So yeah, if you're out there and you got some extra scratch, look up that website and give the kids some money. That is fantastic. Well, we know our contestants, we know what great charity they are playing for. But now it's time to get back to the game and go
over our answers for the General Knowledge round. There were eight questions in the round. Question number one kind of a weird one. Twinkie the Kid is the mascot for Hostess Twinkies. Can you name three of the four things that twink the Kid is wearing. We'll start with you, Corey. I'm now under the sudden realization that a lot of people I know and respect are going to listen to this. So sorry, guys. I wrote down a bandana, a hat, and a belt. Excellent, Chris, what did you
put? I wrote? All right? So I just started thinking about general cowboy stuff. I wrote hat, belt, boots, sash and chaps. And when I said sash, I was thinking about whatever said his name, and that maybe the bandanna. It may not because somehow it's seeking. He wore a sash like the New Year's baby. This is great. Great guesses. Here are your answers. Cowboy hats, cowboy boots, yes, damn it? A kerchief? Is that a bandana or a bandana or a sash?
I guess? Point of order? A sash goes around the entire torso point of order steaks yeah, extra extra, Corey smells. Do we have a cowboy hat, cowboy boots, a kerchief and or bandana and gloves? He's wearing gloves gloves. You can't eat a Twinkie wearing gloves, so there's no belt. Don't think we could give you Sash. But I think it's no harm, no fall. I think it's zero to zero. I think it's all good. You guys are good clothes. As long as we're As
long as Sash is disqualified, I'm happy. Yeah, I think that's a moral point for me. Yes, yes, we will. We won't soon forget what Twinkie the kid is donning in his apparel. There Question number two, who is Richard Nixon's first VP or Vice president? Chris? What did you put? Number two? I wrote, Spiro Agnew, Spiro Agnew, Corey, what did you put?

number three kind of a deeper cut in European capitals here. What is the capital the country of Slovakia? Corey? I don't know how to say this, but I wrote down Scopia Skopje. I think that's a city somewhere that region, in that region. Very good guests, Christian. What did you put? For number three? We'll see if I could pronounce what I wrote? I put so Slovakia City. That place is a hotbed for gay shows.
Slovakia City, Scopia or Scope J like you were saying, I think that might be North Macedonia or something like that, But you were close, Corey. The correct answer Bratislava. Bratislava is the capital city of Slovakia. One we won't soon forget it is Brotoslava. For number three, question number four, Edward Woodward was the original Equalized are on CBS in the nineteen eighties.
But who are the two actors that have starred in The Equalizer? One was a TV show and then they've done The Equalizer as a film series. Can you name those two? Christian?

I thought they'd like hearing their names on out out third grade? What was the teacher's name, Oh, miss Galvin? Third grade? Yeah? I think I knocked down
her ficus tree one day, Christian. Yeah, she had a real deep voice. Yes, yes, the dulcet tones of missus Galvin. Corey, did you put the same two names? I hope amazingly? I said all of Chris's third grade class. Incredible. I'm a huge classic TV fan, so I knew this right away. I said, star of news radio day fully and R and B Artistqueen Latifa. You got one of them, the Queen of course, Queen Latifa. When they reprised the Equalizer on CBS.
Wit shit? Really the Yeah, Queen Latifa is the star of the Equalizer on CBS. But in the film franchise, how soon we forget one of the greatest actors of all time, Denzel Washington as the equalizer on film? So I'll give you a half a point. We do half points here. You got the Queen Latifa. Even if you pulled it out of your rump, it deserves a half point. So you got a half point for Queen Latifa. I was thinking of that movie Taxi. Yeah, oh yeah,
with Jimmy Fallon. What a great pairing. Yikes. Question number five. Business magnate investor Warren Buffett has the nickname the Oracle or Sage of what us City? Corey? I wrote, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma City. Great guess, Christian, what did you put? I thought he was from Texas? I wrote Dallas, Dallas, both great guesses? Both in the same neck of the woods.

What grace fronted the band's Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship and or just starship? For number six? Christian? What did you put? I think I know this. I wrote Grace Slick, Grace Slick. Corey, what did you put? I wrote Grace Speedwagon. I thought maybe she'd she was the one in that band too, Riding the Storm Out. I think that's the song from

purple in my head. So I wrote purple, purple, Christian. What did you put? For number seven? Yeah? I didn't know it for sure, but red seemed like a pretty pointing color to me, So I wrote red, Red, Great guests. I think red is worn a lot by the every Town for Gun Safety or Mom's Demand action. But in this instance, in June commemorates the life of Hadiyah is orange. You'll see a lot of people wearing orange T shirts to commemorate that. In June, question
number eight, who wrote the best selling books Everything? I never told you? Little Fires Everywhere and Our Missing Hearts? Christian? Little Fires Everywhere was the giveaway for me?

You'll see her books at every bookstore, on every app, if you go to good Reads or something like that, or

guys work on. Right, So, this is a podcast that I host and produce in conjunction with Buzzer Blog and the National Archives of Game Show History, which is at the Strong National Museum of Play and Chester, New York. I came to them about six months ago. Was an idea. I have experience, having been a contestant on half a dozen shows. I have a little bit of journalistic experience. I had been doing a podcast for a couple of years before that, and I said, what if I did this
show for you guys. And I talked to people who have been contestants on game shows throughout the history of TV and just chronicled those experiences, compared notes, and they loved the idea. The rest is history. We've been doing the show for six months now, again called tell Us about Yourself. Conversations with Game show contestants, available on Buzzer Blog, available on all the major streaming services. And yeah, every week I talked to a contestant from the
history of game shows, and I've talked to some really cool people. Tom McKee, who won eighty eight games of Tic Tac Dough back in the eighties, three hundred thousand bucks. John Carpenter, the guy the first guy to win a million bucks, used his lifeline to call his dad. I talked to him on the show, the first ever a contestant on the first ever
episode of The Price Is Right, the first ever Jeopardy winner. I've talked to some really incredible people, have gotten some fascinating stories, and the reception has been great as well. So we're having the time of our lives making it. Yeah, Corey, what did you want to add? Well,
the nice thing about the game show the podcast tell us about yourself. The great thing about this podcast is that not only is it like a living document of the history of television and game shows, but it really gives you that viewpoint that when you look at the history of game shows, very few people actively talk about Nobody talks about the stars of game shows and the stars. I mean it's been said time and time again, Bob Barker, Alex Trebeck,
Mark el Wahlberg, They've all said the same thing. The star of every game show is the contestants, and I really love that Chris is able to connect with them on the level of I've been under the lights just like you, I know how you were thinking. I can commiserate, but also just his genuine human connection with people. He's a very good conversationalist. It's always a blast to listen to. I get lost listening to these podcasts because
it's just such a good conversation. Well, so check out that podcast as well. Let's get back to the game. It's seven and a half to six. Corey's in the lead over Christian here. So Christian, it's time to enter our third of four rounds today, Round three, the Lightning round. It is the Lightning round, and since you are trailing, you get to go first. So you can choose from these three categories. Again,
these category headings have nothing to do with the question nor the answers. But since we're in the theme of game shows, I thought you could choose from three of my favorite hosts of all time. Wink Martindale, Peter Tomarkin, or Bert Convey name your poison. I am going to pick my actual favorite game show host, which is Peter to market, let's do it. He was so great pressure love. Peter Tommarken. All right, here is your Peter to markin lightning round question. I'm gonna say it twice. I'm gonna
say go. You're gonna have twenty seconds on the clock. Say as many answers as possible. Corey, you might want to write some answers down because I'm gonna come straight to you with your five second rebuttal. Here is your
Peter Tomarken Lightning round question. I need for you Christian to name the nine fastest land mammals, the nine fastest land mammals twenty seconds on the clock and a go okay, Cheetah, Leopard, lion, tiger, ostrich emu, uh, Flamingo, rocket power, gerbil h golden retriever Uh by Uncle Hector. Uh, you got two. You got number one. Of course, you got the cheetah and number six was a lion. You got the cheetah and the lion, so you got two. There's seven still up for grabs.
Uncle Hector is pretty swift, but not in the top nine. And Corey your chance to steal some answers. You're gonna have five second rebuttal again. These are the nine fastest land mammals five seconds on the clock and a go how on a Concord jet plane. There's a giant giraffe that's farting a whole lop. God, I love the farting giraffe. Let's go over the answers. We didn't get to Chester. Cheetah was number one, of course, and then number two. You could have said any type of antelope.
We have a prong horn or a black book. Antelopes are very quick. Number three kind of in that same world, a gazelle or a springbok. Number four a horse number five, a will too beast, which is kind of surprising that it's top five. Number seven is a hair number eight, a greyhound. A number nine kind of surprised. Way two is a kangaroo. A kangaroo can fly. That was your nine fastest land mammals for Peter Tomarkan. So Corey, it's your chance. It's your turn in the barrel.
You could choose either Wink Martindale or Bert Convey. I think I will select the late great Bert Convey. Please Bert Convey. What an awesome permanent he had that permed hair for Bert Convey, So good? All right, here is your Bert convey lightning round question. Per Rolling Stones twenty twenty one list of the top one hundred motown songs, I need you to name the
top nine different Motown artists that topped their list. So even though there were certain artists that had more than one hit in their top one hundred, their
top nine different artists or groups that topped their list. From Rolling Stones Motown list from twenty twenty one, twenty seconds on the Clock and Ago, The Supremes, the Four Tops, the Temptations, the Sherrell's, the Horsehounds, the Queens, the Clubs, the Jacks, the Diamonds, the Uh the Go goes, No uh Michael Jackson, no extra, no uh stop. You got three right out. You got the Temptations, you got the Supremes, and you got the Four Tops. You got the Four Top Supremes and
the Temptations. There's still six up for grabs. See if Christian can take some from you again. For Rolling Stones twenty twenty one list the top one hundred Motown songs, named the top nine different motown artists that topped their list. Five Seconds on the Clock and Go, Marvin Gay, Tammy Terrell, Deon Warwick, Michael Jackson, the Temptations, Teddy Pendergrass, Luther andros Stop you stole one, the great Marvin Gay. Of course he was right up
there. Three Marvin Gay. Let's go over the ones we didn't get to. Number one on their list, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles with tracks of My Tears, I think was their number one song of all time. Number four, Martha and the Van Della's number five my person an old favorite. Stevie Wonder was on that label. You said, Michael Jackson, but it was the Jackson five. You weren't too far off. Jackson five was number seven. Can can I get a fifth of a point for that? Can
I get one fifth of a point? One fifth point? And I was not really good at fractions, So this is gonna be a real ship. And number nine was a tougher one, but they had some great songs. Was the marvel Letts. They were one of the early Motown groups that had hits, The marvel Letts. Yeah, yeah, post Man was the marvel Etts for sure. So that was a very fun lightning around. We have a new score. We have Christian with nine points and Corey still in the
lead with ten and a half. It's ten and a half to nine after three. Again, it's ten and a half to nine after three as we enter our fourth in final round between you two Jans. Round four, the Double Duty. It is our Theodore Double Duty Radcliff Round. We call it the Double Duty because points are doubled and there are nine large questions, so there's eighteen big points up for grabs in this round. So it's anyone's game. And since let's just keep this theme going, we got the twenty four
hour game show Marathon for Child's Play coming up on June third. So the category of course for this round is just questions all about game shows. These are game show questions for your Double Duty Radcliff round. Here's question number one of nine. What MTV game show introduced us to Colin Quinn. Cary were Adam Sandler and Dennis Leary. They all appeared on this awesome MTV show when I was a kid. I loved it. Name that MTV game show that
introduced us to stand up comic Colin Quinn. The Lovely Cary were Adam Sandler and Dennis Leary. For question number one, I'd like to go on the record to state that Christian is buzzer blocks official game show historian, and he was appearing on a four part news documentary series about the history of game shows. So this is horseshit. Go on, oh, come on that good. Question number two of nine, can you name three of the four hosts
of Family Feud that came between Richard Dawson and Steve Harvey? Can you name three of the four hosts of Family Feud that came between Dick Dawson, who creepily kissed every woman on the show, and the very funny, mustachioed Steve Harvey. There were four hosts in between. Can you name three of those four? For question number two, Hey, hey, cribs, yep, you're writing them all down. I didn't want to show off, you know you wanted to. I just wrote. I just wrote a few. No,
I wrote them off. Okay, okay, okay, I do too. Yes, That's what I'm talking about. Okay, me too. Question number three, what creature were you trying to avoid on the game show tick Tack Dough? What creature were you trying to avoid on the game show tick Tack Dough? Yeah? Yeah, there are two answers that except question number four. You see behind me, I have my Little My, my candles and my little fun codes of the greatest of all time, mister Alex Trebek.
So this this question's dedicated to the late great Alex Trebek. From nineteen eighty seven to nineteen ninety one, Alex Trebek hosted what game Show? Concurrently with his duties as host of Jeopardy, he hosted another game show that I love to watch? Name that show that was out. From nineteen eighty seven to nineteen ninety one, again, Alex Trebek in those years hosted what other
game show? Concurrently with his duties as host of Jeopardy. Take a day off, Alex jeepers, All right, are you ready for question number five? Oh? Yes, let's go, here we go. Question number five, The US version of the Weakest Link had two female hosts? Can you name them? It's been around two different times and they had two female hosts. Can you name those female hosts of the US version of the Weakest Link? Goodbye? I like question number six a lot. This is a good
one. Per BuzzFeed and Rancor, can you name two of the three prices right? Games that made both of their top fives. Rancor and BuzzFeed both had top five games that are played on the prices right, and can you name two of the three that made both of those lists for question number six?
Question number seven maybe the greatest question of all time. The greatest moment in game show history, of course, happened in nineteen seventy seven, when Bob you Banks asked the question on The Newlywed Game, where specifically is the weirdest place where you personally girls have ever gotten the urge to make whoopee? And the wife responded with what answer? This was hidden from the world for many years, but they finally unearthed it when Bob was hosting like a best
of game show Blooper's Show, So Again. Question number seven, the greatest moment and game show history, happened in nineteen seventy seven. Bob you Banks asked the question on the Newlywed Game where specifically is the weirdest place where you, personally girls have ever gotten the urge to make whoopee? And the wife of the couple responded with what answer question number eight. We usually don't do this, but for question number eight, it's very subjective, but in my
opinion, there is only one right answer. Who, without a shadow of a doubt, was the best celebrity panelist on the match game like the classic match game Who Without a shadow of a doubt. Again, it's subjective, but I think it's true. Was the best celebrity panelist on the match game? For number eight? We're on to you finally, question number nine. It could all come down to this question. Next time you're at the checkout and you hear the beep, think of the fun you could be having on
What Game Show? Again? Question number nine. Next time you're at the checkout and you hear the beep, think of the fun you could be having on What Game Show? For question number nine and pancils down, gentlemen, let's go of our answers for the Theodore Double Duty Radcliffe Round. It was a round all about game show. There were nine questions in this round.
Here's question number one. What MTV game show introduced us to? Colin Quinn Cary were Adam Sandler and Dennis Leary Corey What did you put for number one? I wrote one of the greatest game shows in MTV history, Remote Control? Remote Control Christian, what did you put for number one? Yeah? One of my first podcast guests in nineteen eighty nine lost on the show and got launched out of her chair through the wall behind her. So it is
remote control. Excellent, excellent game show hosted by Ken Ober. It was remote control for number one. Question number two, can you name three of the four hosts of Family Feud that came between Dick Dawson and Steve Harvey? Christian I wrote, yes, I can. I'm sure you can. Let's stare him. Let's all right, so we'll do the Ray Holmes, Louis Anderson, Richard Carne, and then somewhere there is Richard Dawson again. Yeah, they brought him back. That brought him back. What did you put?
I wrote, Ray Combs, John O'Hurley, Louie Anderson, Al Roker, Richard Karne, and Ricky Lake. You got most of the ones in there, correct, So let's do this. You're both gonna get the two points. It's Ray Combs, Louie Anderson. Then I think they brought in Dick Dawson for like one season, Richard karn and John O'Hurley, and then
of course Steve Harvey took over after John oh Hurley. Question number three, what creature were you trying to avoid on the game show tick tack a Doe, Corey, I wrote the Dragon, the Dragon, Christian, what did you put for number three? Animated using an Apple two computer? It's the dragon? Yeah, yeah, it's like eight bit if that dragon you were trying to avoid the dragon on tick tack dough. You guys are killing it.
This is awesome. Question number four. From nineteen eighty seven to nineteen ninety one, Alex Trebek hosted What Game Show Can currently with his duties as host of Jeopardy Christian, I love this show too, and this is the first computer version of a game show I ever played. Also coincidentally on an Apple two, Classic Concentration, Classic Concentration, Corey, what did you put? From number four? I also wrote Classic Concentration, and then in parentheses,
I think also a little to tell the truth? Yeah, I think again. If you look at his little MDB, Alex Trebecker like what shows didn't he hosts? Like it's he's did a million? But yeah, I was going for Classic Concentration. And since you guys love puns and plays on word that that game show was right up your alley, so good. Question number five the US version of the Weakest Link Head two female hosts. Can you name them? Corey. Originally hosted by Anne Robinson, currently hosted by
Jane Lynch. Anne Robinson and Jane Lynch. Christian, do you agree with that? Yeah? I forgot about the current one initially, but yeah, I wrote and Robinson and Jade Lynch, you guys are on fire and fuego. It was Anne Robinson who started things off, and then Jane A. Lynch for question number five. All right, Question number six per BuzzFeed and rancor, can you name two of the three prices right games that made both of their top five lists? Christians? Start us off from number six?
I wrote the two that I thought would be on there. I wrote Plinko and then I wrote holand one Plinko and holand one. Great guess is, Corey, what did you put for number six? I wrote Plinko and Cliffhangers. What's incredible is combined you got all three of them. You both get the two points. It's play Cliffhangers and hole in one. When you're good, you are good, and we are good. You guys are destroying this.
This is awesome. Question number seven. The greatest moment game show history happened in nineteen seventy seven when Bobby Banks asked the question on the Newlywed Game, where specifically is the weirdest place where you personally girls have ever gotten the urge to make whoopee? And the wife of the couple responded with what answer Corey? She said Mike si Nelson that she wanted to make woopy in her ass? In her ass, Christian, what did you put from number seven?
Now? I haven't said this anywhere publicly yet, but stay tuned to the podcast. She's as in the ass. I'm gonna give it to both of you. It's in the ass, which her husband just go faws and falls over laughing and everyone else dies laughing too. But she said, yeah, the strangest place would be in the ass her question number seven? Question number eight, who, without a shadow of a doubt, is the best
celebrity panelist on the Match Game? Christian? Well, if we're talking straight batting average and popularity, I think it's probably commonly held to be Richard Dawson. It's the greatest match game panelist, rich Dawson, great guests, Corey, What did you put? I wrote down quote you would say, Richard Dawson. That's the answer. I'm locking in. But unequivocally Betty White was far less toxic and far more fun. Oh my god, this is the
most subjective question I've had on my show so far. I'm gonna have to say no to both of you. We'll see if you guys are going to be super upset if you say Fanny Flag, I'm leaving. It's not Fanny Flag. I'm telling you my favorite of all time is Charles Nelson Riley. I mean, that's hard to argue with. Yeah, that's fine. I'm happy losing a point for that. Are you guys okay with? Yeah? I love Betty White, She's tremendous. Yeah, Dick Dawson great guests.
But I'm like Charles Nelson Riley just killed me every time. Question number nine. It comes down to this. Next time you're at the check out and you hear the beep, think of the fun and you could be having on what game show? Corey super Market sweep. Supermarket sweep. Excellent guest, Christian, what did you put for number nine? It is this Households Thanksgiving marathon viewing every year. Supermarket sweep. It is super Market Sweep. You
guys were just magnificent in the double duty round. We were tabulating our final scores. Holy cow, it comes down to this, Christian. You finish with twenty five points with almost almost perfect round by Christian. Cory finishes with twenty six and a half. Corey, love It, Love it Otto, you are, in fact the smartest person in the world for one week. Holy shit, guys, that wasn't incredible to the double duty Radcliff round Wow a one and a half point game. You both did tremendous in that final
round again, twenty six and a half to twenty five. That's how we draw it up here that you should know better.

It's about image in coca. Yeah, it's all that's gonna be ifan coca, we're all gonna We're all gonna win. Everybody's a winner. So she's gonna throw up the question here. I'll read it to the masses and Corey you can get first crack at a guest.

So Annie, if you are ready with our final throwdown question, throw it up there.
All right, here we go. Here is your final throwdown question. What does and this is in quotes. There's two letters, a U and an L. What does you ll stand for on a light bulb? What does the U L stand for on a light bulb? So we could talk about this, Corey again, you get first crack in my first instinct is and again I don't know why. Things just kind of get stuck in the brain and then you kind of shake it out and it comes out like a
like a like a slot machine malfunction. Uh. I want to say something along the lines of United Laboratories or something like that. I don't know. I can see the logo. It's like you and then an Ellen. I think they're intertwined or something. And it's on those old incandescent light bulbs that you're not supposed to use anymore. I can see them vividly. But I don't know. I think it's that something like that. That's great, Christian,
you got any thing to throw in here? Well, you know how facts is kind of getting your head and start rumbling around like a vending machine or whatever. This Corey said, I don't I know. It's it's one of those things that I think I know for the same reason Cory said he thinks he knows what it is. It's just something that gets in there. I want to say, underwriter's laboratories. Yeah, that sounds right. Underwriter's
laboratories, like they might hold the patents or something. That's like you got to put our letters on all of this ship something like hy KK on the zipper. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's great. I don't think I'm gonna come up with anything better than that. So Underwriters, Uh, what was the what was the last part? Laboratory, Yeah, laboratory, Yeah, laboratories. Let's yeah, I'm kind of gonna go with Christian and Corey on this one. So let's let's see the answer and then we'll learn a
little bit about this with some factoids here. Yeah, you look at that, so like we got smartest people of the world for one week all over the place. Christian gets it. It is Underwriter's laboratory, so let's learn
a little bit about this. UEL means the product has been tested by Underwriters Laboratories for Fire and Electrical Safety. UL is the largest nonprofit and best known testing laboratory in the world, and founder William Merrill was sent to Chicago World's Fair in eighteen ninety three to assess fire risk for the twenty seven million attendees. Because yeah, that was the white city was all lit up, and
Merril proposed a testing lab to the Underwriters and you el was born.
