We will go over your answers in just
a few moments. But it's time to meet my soul sisters. This person was all over the place, born in Mexico City, then lived in Washington, DC. Then Spokane, Washington, to New York City to Los Angeles. She's in those progressive turning into your Parents commercials with me and a bunch of other commercials. My dear friend Valentina Garcia is here. Yes, yes, yes, you can follow miss Garcia on social media at Valentina Garcia. She's on Instagram. Valentina, what charity are you playing for?
Ooh, I am playing for Youth Mentoring Connection, which is just one of the most amazing organizations in the world, really but here in Los Angeles, mostly in East LA and they're.
Amazing, fantastic. Yeah, well, win or lose, We're happy to make a donation in your name to Youth Mentoring Connection. Some of the projects of Valentina's got going on. She's got a movie that by the time this comes out, will be out on vod It's called for Profit pr pH ET. Yeah, that's a feature film that you were in right, yes, and it was in theaters for a quick second, but it's going to be available everywhere on
the video on demand. And then Latina's acting up. Tell me a little bit about this group that you're a part of.
You know, the AMPTP really messed up. They really fucked up, because I mean, the best thing that came out of that strike was obviously a fair living wage for everyone, but or for most, I hope, But really it was this organization that came out of that, which is a group of women that come together and are actresses and some writers collaborators within the industry, and they're obviously Latina's And we started dancing every Friday and doing these like
flash mobs, and we were then requested at each of the studios to come and do flash mobs there. And we've seen together and we're celebrating our one year anniversary and we support each other. We go to each other's shows. We do the thing that I hate the most, but I'm sure I actually know you feel this way. Posting about the shit that we're working on is literally like I had to like slam my phone down to the computer down every time I do something, and I know
it's part of it, but it hate it. But these women are like, got it, no problem, and then they just like post everything for you and they come to your movies, they come to your shows, and it's it's something that I didn't find. Dare I say in the like traditional white space I didn't find that kind. It felt a little cutthroat. And these women are like you, I see you, you lift me up, I lift you up,
and we all get to do this together. And I think in this industry it can be a little cutthroat, and this.
Is yeah, especially since the pandemic like killed what any sense of community we had totally for years, and then the strikes brought us together. That's one thing that I'll always remember about last summer is it created a sense of community that we hadn't have within within unions, in between unions, just the communities that we were in. There was parts of LA where people opened up their stores
or their bathrooms for us or whatever. But yeah, your community, especially just like representation still in Hollywood sucks for the Latino community. It's like it's insane, it's so embarrassing and I'm sure frustrating for you. But to find this community of women that are just like it's such a kick ass community and it's so supportive and that you guys are working on your own projects now totally.
Now we've created our own like subgroups and people are writing and they're creating stuff. They're creating what we knew we would were also helping each other. All of a sudden, you see someone on a show and it's because the other person got them on there and reminded each other that, like, and it's not just about like career wise, it's about
humanitarily helping one another. Yeah, be the best we can be and support each other in something that's a really it's a really hard time for everyone globally politically, but in this industry it's in a really, really tough time and I feel like I'm like, I would do this strike all over again.
Just to have found this squa, just to have found your people.
People.
All Right, it's time to meet your opponent from the Battle of bull Run. I believe Nassas Virginia, the first or second Battle of bull Run Manassas Virginia. She's in those progressive commercials with all of us as well. Obra tay Back is here today.

Obra, I am playing for Orphan Kitten Club, which uh I had a hard time to citing because I do foster neo needle kittens with the ASPCA and I love them with all my heart. However, I chose this organization because it's was It's a five O one C three created by Hannah Shaw, also known as the Kitten Lady. If you follow her on Instagram and she isn't cut the Kitten Lady on the Kitten Lady, Yeah, she's incredible.
She started doing YouTube videos and just started educating people about how to foster neonaedo kittens, so like little bottle babies. And then this organization, it's all about kitten programs throughout the whole entire country, ethical research. It's just a very specific group kittens that don't have moms, that don't end up making it through the shelter system, and so these they provide grants and oh, she's amazing. The organization is amazing.
It's based in San Diego, the San Diego area, but they work all over the country.
So angels straight from Heaven.

Some projects you've seen you've been on Late Night with Seth Meyers, You've been on that wonderful one of the funniest shows in the world, the Other two, and you performed at UCB for years and years. But you have a movie called Empire Waste coming out that your friend I think is involved with. Tell us all about Empire Waste.
Yes, well, I have a small part in this incredible movie written by Claire Ayub, who is if we're talking angels said from Heaven, that's Claire. It's just I don't want to give anything away from the plot, but it is just a beautiful message for young adults, but I think everybody can learn from it. Claire developed a whole curriculum about what comes up in the movie and how to talk about it with kids. Rain Wilson is in it, Mister Pile's in it. It's just it's and Claire wrote it and directed it.
She's fantastic. And Obra Taybach's in it too. All right. You know are two badass contestants and dear friends. You know what great causes they are playing for. But it's time to get back to brass tacks and go for our answers for a very interesting Round one. Our general knowledge Round Question one of eight was back in twenty twelve.

So let's go over the ones we didn't get to number three, close to swimming, diving, we've done really we Greg Lugainis and peeps. For the different types of wrestling, there's Greco Roman and other types of wrestling, we've done really well. And just like that, boxing we've done very well since the early days with
Muhammad Ali and people like that, and boxing Jackie. That was pretty fun. Lightning round. What what the hell happened?
Because we have such a we don't believe it, Mike, another freakin tied round. You both got four points in that round. So we have Valentina and the lead with a grand total of eighteen points and Arbor just behind was seventeen point five.
Oh my god, it's so damn close. This is how we draw it up. We love close games. It's a half point game and we're through three rounds, so that means there's one round remaining between you two, and it happens to be the Theodore Double Duty Radcliffe round round four.
The Double Duty.
We call it the Double Duty because points are doubled, so that half point lead is very precarious. Right now, today in the Double Duty, we're going to do a round all about pop music. It's another music round for the Double Duty. There are nine questions instead of eight in this round. So there are eighteen very large points up four grabs. Here we go. Question number one of nine in the double duty What Beg's hit song is
often used as the rhythm to perform CPR. We're doing CPR, they say this song in your head and it'll help with the rhythm. Very famous Begs song for question number one is often used as the rhythm to performing c p R. For question number one, this is where it gets re quiet. Everyone's getting real serious. I wonder if this is going to break up your friendship.
Never, never, not possible.
I believe that there's a new song out it is.
Oh, we'll talk all about that.
I want to learn that because that's what guys, We got a new CPR song.
Because kids don't know that song. Yeah, because the new generation's like, sorry, what song am I singing? I'm going to kill.
This person's it's old Town Road. Now it's old Town Road. The kids are that's great. I can't wait to hear all about that, all right. Question number two, can you name either of Beyonce's last two albums from this year and the one from twenty twenty two? Get them both. Maybe I'll give you a bonus point, But can you name either of Beyonce's last two albums? One came out this year, earlier this year, and one came out in twenty twenty two? For question number two, here's question number three.
Rappers Calvin Brotus Junior and Marshall Mathers the Third are better known as who name those two different rappers? Calvin Brodus Junior and Marshall Mathers the Third are better known as what two rappers? For question number three? All right? Question number four goes like this, what pop superstar won the first season of American Idol? And that was a long time ago, which is crazy? Question number five, besides Bono, can you name any of the other three members long

Question number six. Question number six is what Kate Busch song had a huge second act by being featured in season four of Stranger Things. Song was everywhere for I think more than a year. But again for number six, what Kate Busch song had a huge second act by being featured in season four of Stranger Things? All right, Question number seven, It comes down to these final three questions. Question number seven, What Michael Jackson album is still the best selling album of all time?
That's incredible?
Jen, What MJ album is still the best selling album of all time? For number seven? Question number eight, your penultimate question in the double Duty round. We have a half point game between these two lovely ladies. And speaking of lovely ladies, Dolly Parton wrote, what two huge hit songs on the same night?
I won't believe this fact. I can't believe that anyone would write such two hits on the same night?
Question number eight. Dolly Parton wrote what two huge hit songs on the same night? She swears by it? For Questions numberrific.
Yeah, we got to give it up to her.
We gotta give it up to give it up to her.
All right, are you ready for your final question? It could come down.
To this, Oh my gosh.
Question number nine, your final question in this round. Justin Bieber was born on March first, nineteen ninety four, which was the same day of What Grunge Bands final concert? What a weird question. Justin Bieber The Beebes was born on March first, eighteen ninety four, which was the same day of what grunge band's final concert name the band for number nine? All Right, pencils down, let's go over your answers to the Theodore Double Redcliff round today we're
all talking. We were talking all about pop music rather question number one of nine. What Begi's hit song has often used as the rhythm to perform CPR Valentina.
Uh uh, Staying Alive, Staying Alive.
Staying Alive opera What did you put?
I also wrote Staying Alive.
Staying Alive. Now Jackie has told us there's a new hit song that's used for CPR, but it is I was going for staying Alive, but Jackie tell us all about the new song.
It's actually there's a list. There's a whole list of songs that Gosh American Hearts As Association has put out there. My top one Bye.

Boys, Intergalactic Plan Plan and Yeah Yeah.
Okay, Bring a Fire by Johnny Cash, Bye Bye, Bye bye Insane.
That's all right, this is good. I think they're just like whatever rhythm is, Oh my god, I I baby yeah.
But I kind of think they're just like, just sing a song and just do it. I feel like they're like, listen, if someone just do it, just get in there. Any song will do.
But the one that they tweeted about was which is very exciting.
That's awesome.
So I think either song have It in your Head performs CPR, it's going to help keep someone alive. But I was going for staying alive by the Begs for question number one. Question number two, can you name either of Beyonce's last two albums? One was from earlier this year and one was from twenty twenty two? A T What do you give?
I'm so upset because I know it and I don't know it. I know one's wrong, Lemonade, and I also.
Wrote Renaissance Valentina, What do you Got?
I put Renaissance as well and Cowboy Carter.
I almost just wrote Texas and I was like, that's that.
I think he would have gotten it.
I would have given you another fraction. But this is what we're gonna do. We're gonna give one point to Aubera, she got renaissance, and the other one was in fact Cowboy Carter. So Valentina is getting the big two points. Two points for Valentina, one for auber All. Right, Question number three rappers Calvin Brotis Junior and Marshall Mathers. The third better known as what two rappers their real names? Valentina? What are their rap names?

You know, I have one that's pre written, okay, but I was also just inspired with a little something. Like someone said something and I was like, that's a quote from a movie? Should I see? Like, if they know what movie is from?
Hmmm, interesting, go with your gut.
So I'm going to give you the movie quote, okay, and let's see if you know where this is from. And I'm gonna I'm just gonna say it normal, and then if you need me to say it like the person, I'll say it like the person be silent, be still.
Hmm Okay, now say it like the person.
Be silent, be still, be silent, be still? Does that ring a bell?
It does?
But if it doesn't, I can just give you the other question.
Let's talk about it though. Aubera's I feel like she's feeling it.
I feel like it's in a movie, like someone who is in my mind, like some sort of character who's like very into meditation or something and is trying to teach others. There's like a moment where it's like be silent, be still, and everyone's like what, But I don't know if that's true.
What if I told you that this person was saying this while kicking a hacky sack? Would that help you or hurt you?
I mean it helps me just because that's hilarious, and I want to see this.

Who's in it? Aubera, we'll figure it out. Tell us who's in it.
It's an actually performance art piece in the movie. Him in this hackey stack. Yeah, he's like kind of like describing his like, you know, the pressures of it.
And it's the guy. It's like the guy she's into, and it's like he gets up and does this thing.
And he can't believe the rush of being on stage because he doesn't know it. He's usually, you know, doing sports.
Is it election?
You know what we've actually mentioned. It's not election. We've actually mentioned his co star earlier in this game.
Oh is it like she's all.
That or yes?
Oh my god.
I was thinking that this was a law. I was like, everyone knows be silent, be still.
