Mini Episode: MEET MARK TWAIN & THE REAL QUEENWIVES OF HISTORY!

some things who can't unlearned? Oh tails, I guess you win. I'm still too shocked. You go ahead, go ahead and tell the children, all right? Who was her? In place of our regular episode where we quiz kids about their knowledge of two specific people from history, we fired up that walkie talkie to the past, the who was that? That's the one to get in touch with some of

our best guest stars from this season. These big names are such huge fans of the podcast that they had their people call our people, who, to be clear, is an elephant to jump back on the show to spend some more time with us. All right, Eric, please plastic, here we go. What do you think you know about the grates from this study? The game is on. To get some energy and buckle up your brain, because it's time to play the bost podcast. Because it's time to

play book Who Life? From Tonkland or So Falled, So Cat Los Angeles. It's Who Was the Podcast Where for today we're giving the quizzing arrest and just kind of, you know, vibe with some very cool folks from history. I'm your announcer, Fee and I make a feline for free sandwiches. Now here's your host, the man who's a tea and a coffee guy. Yes, Eliot Jalen, Thank you be that's right. It takes a lot of caffeine just to get me to this level. Welcome everyone to the

Who Was Podcast Where. Today We've got something special for you. Some of our most beloved guests from this season got together to collaborate on a new show, The Real Queen Wives of Who Was. Let's hear it now, what happens when three regal reality stars are brought together under one royal roof. We'll find out on today's episode of the Real Queen Wives of Who Was the only show where lady leaders can live in the lap of luxury if

they can learn to get along. Now, let's meet the sassy sovereign senoras of the real queen wives of who was. I'm Good Queen Elizabeth First, also known as Good Queen Best, and you best stay out of my why if you know what's good for you, I'm Marie Antoinette. Let them eat Gake. No, no, let me eat Gake. Because what the Queen of France wants, the Queen of France gets. I am Eleanor Roosevelt. I was once twice four times

a first lady. Wow, long live those queens last. Your queen wives are who wise, Marie, you're not doing your share of the chores. What makes you say is that, Eleanor? Because you're not doing any of the chores? Sylla. That's French for what Eleanor is always going on about. We all have to do about, and we're all in these twogether. She says, Americans working out and sacrificing for each other is what got them. Sues a great depression. Where her

lectures are giving me a great depression. Listen, I know Marie is just a young woman who never asked me, never an entire nation. But sometimes she makes me so mad. I just put THEO in a guiche and putka head off. Trust me, I've had people's heads cut off. It cheers you up for a few moments. With the clean up takes forever. Whoa, whoa. That was last week. This week, Kuei one and Marie are about to get into a little dust up over who gets to use the last

of the pale white face powder. Let's listen in actually, miscenarrator, there will be no face powder dust up. The three of us have been talking and we have some big problems with this show. Yes, but one thing. The title is incredibly inaccurate. I was never a queen. I was a democratically elected first lady, a devoted champion for equality and human rights. Okay, so you weren't a queen, but you were a wife to President Roosevelt. Yeah, but while I was queen, I was never a wife. I kept

myself unmarried. So it's not to lose my power to whatever frenchmen are. Spaniard promised me a ring, thinking they get a crown and return. Do you also have a problem with the title, Marie, No, I was both a queen and a wife. I think the title is fine, okay, great, glad to see at least one cast member doesn't have a problem. No, I have many problems with this show. I believe it was put together just to make us

fight with each other. You're making us look selfish, vain, and foolish, just as people unfairly assumed I was when I was queen. People love dramas, so they get the wrong idea. What's the worst that could happen? I could get my egg got off, which is exactly what happen. Oh light, Yeah. As a former American delegate to the United Nations, I hereby submit emotion to change this show. I second that motion. I said this motion. The show must be channge. That's three to one, Mr narrator, by

the rules of democracy, this show must be changed. Alright, alright, we'll change the show. Let's go back to the drawing board and bring you the new version right after this short break, Eric play us some reboot music, if you please. Welcome back to the Real Queen Wives of Who Was, which is no longer a reality show from now on, this show is a sitcom. Oh how lovely. I could use a good laugh after the whole getting my head cut off, seeing a Clayford too earlier. So it's time

for another episode of everyone's new favorite show. Let's meet the mirth making matriarch Monarchs of the Queens of Queens, Elizabeth Marie. I am prone, eleanor don't you mean m l It wasn't my fault. I hit traffic after the Mets game at City Field because we live in Queens. Well, now, the dinner I picked up is cold. I got a souvlaki in gyro because we live in Queens. Hey, I just saw Spider Man swinging by outside because we live in Queens. Mark goodness, Marie, what happened to your voice?

My voice? What are you talking about? Use guys, Marie? Come clean. Last time I checked French royals never said use guys. All right, you got be I just figured if I'd tuck like this, nobody will say I'm a snob and cut my nugget off. I even used to act an amateur place at the Palace at Verst Sales as a lover of theater. I think that's right, And really, aren't we all playing a role when we take on

the responsibility of being a leader. I don't know about that, but listen, how good it sounds when I recite Elizabeth Buddy Bill Shakespeare's stuff, but so off with like Trianda window breaks, okay? Or what about this? So we were not to be forget about it, Marie, I love you, but never do that again, Elizabeth, what's a surprisingly sweet

thing to say? Why? With no narrator to push us into gender stereotype reinforcing arguments, I believe we'll finally get along because your tool are the best royal roommates a first lady you could ever have. Well, if beats get knocked up in the tower landing by my art sister a friend, I got an idea, let's all eat cake. I second that motion. Wow, what an amazing show. I can't wait to stream all twenty seven seasons and fifteen

casts of the Real Queen Wives of Who Was? While I figure out the password to one of Elliott's streaming services, why don't we take a quick break, But don't go anywhere, because we'll be back with mar Who Was? Podcast? Eric play us some prestige television music please live from tong Land or so called SOKW Los Angeles. It's Who Was? The podcast? Where? For today we're giving the quizzing arrests and just kind of you know, vibe with some very

cool folks from history. I'm your announcer, Be, and I'd be remiss if I didn't introduce you to your host, the man who has stuck in socks. It's Elliot's kaln. Thank you, Be. If you'd always get cold, you'll never lose money making them warm and welcome everyone to the Who Was? Podcast. Let's waste no time leading our first and only guest for today's episode, America's greatest humorist, Mark Twain. B Elliot is honnor to be in your company. Just

to refresh everyone's memory. Mark Twain is the author of many incredible books, including the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and the Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Yes, indeed that is me, but you can call me sam Well. Kind of a weird nickname for Marth, but who am I to judge? That's right. My true name is Samuel Clipman's. Mark Twain is but a simple pen name. You named your pen that's why, no, my dear. A pen name is a name a writer uses as something of an altar ego.

Oh like Superman, but a writer wait, Superman is a writer. I need to sit down alright, Sam, Well, he takes a seat on the floor. We don't have any chairs. What brings you to our humble podcast? Why the podcast? It's so my good, Elliott. I've got a game of my own design, and I'm sure you'll want to add to your repertoire. Well, I'm already sold. Tell us Mark. It's called Mark Twain's Memory Builder. You know, I've actually heard of this game. It's a history game that you

really invented in the late eighteen eighties. The game board, it looks like a test cheat sort of numbers with blank circles next to Ah. That is correct, sir, A man of discerning tastes. I like that. And here's the game in the flesh and a little dusty. So how do you play it? It's both simple and entertaining, a game for acquiring and retaining all sorts of facts and dates, just perfect to add to the who Worth podcast. The

game board represents in a century. It also represents all centries. Now, when you pin your fact in its year column, you'll need to name the century. Pin your fact yes on your game board. Here's an example. You stick a pin in sixty four in the third row of holes in the compartment marked minor event, and say Shakespeare born fifteen sixty four, or Pin seventy six in the same minor event compartment and say Declaration of Independence seventeen seventy six.

I don't know that we consider the birth of our greatest writers. Say again, I'm our greatest non American writer. I meant to say or the Declaration of Independence to be minor events. Well, in the game, mine events are both deaths, dates of inventions, essentially an effect that is datable and would remember. So you consider your own birth a minor event? Well, yes, seeing as how it would be some time before I was an adult. Oh, don't

you use that folksy term on me, mr. I take it that much like our games the Memory Building Twains Memory Building, Yes, right, Mark Twain's Memory Builder. Sorry, I assume each category has points tied to them. They sure who you do? The sessions are worth ten points perpen, battles worth five, and minor events being mine at one point. Those are big leaks. Well take our show for example, It's different points, but first round questions are worth one point,

second round two and third round three points one two three. Well, don't challenge me to a duel now, but that seems a bit on the nose, doesn't fam. I think we're gonna have to pass on your game. We can't afford all those pins, and also I just don't think it's quite right for the show. It also doesn't really make sense, but we appreciate you bring it to us though we really do well. Hold on, now, let's not put the pin in the rejection categories just yet. Maybe we could

change it so that it's right for you. Why don't you let me play one of the games from your audio show. Let me hang my hat on the kind of thing you do play? All right, Sam Clemens also known as Mark Twain, We're going to play a game called Sound Effects Safari. A Safari affected by sound. The future is truly a charming and terrifying place. Sound effects to Fari sound Sexifari, sound of fear. In this game, we'll play a sound and be We'll give you a

question based on that sound. Choose the best answer to tell us how it relates to, in this case, your life. Alright, I am prepared for your game of chance. It's it's not a chance, it's entirely based on knowledge. Retention. We shall see, we shall sleep all right, Sam. Here's your first. Sound. Sounds like the flow of a river. Why does a river relate to Mark Twain's life? Mark Twain A Mark Twain grew up in a rivertown or the Mark Twain loves to water ski? Oh my, this is an easy one.

It's a I grew up in a rivertown Hannibal, Missouri, to be specific, living alone the Mississippi River. May my friends and I want to be steamboatmen, and at one point I was. I wrote about in my book Life on the Mississippi. Great work, Mr Twayne, Well, I admit it does hope when the questions all about one. So you're being modest. I couldn't answer a question about what I had for breakfast this morning. You told me you didn't have breakfast this morning. Oh yeah, I'm doing intermittent fasting.

I'm angry all the time. It's great. Here's your next. Sound. Sounds like someone is building something. Why does building relate to Mark Twaine's life? Ay, he created a character that inspired Bob the Builder or b As he became successful, he built a large house for his family. Oh b the letter not the name. Correct? And thank you. I wish more people would be specific my wife living. I build a nineteen room house with a billiards, root turrets, and a porch designed like a riverboat deck. I like

to keep things nice and them to stay. Are there more questions? I feel like I'm on a hot street. Here's the next sound. It's a frog. Frogs are so cool? But what do they have to do with Mark Twaine a he cursed a prince who will be a frog until he finds true love? Or be he wrote a short story called the Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County. Dan's be that stoils my first great success? Look me on the map as a rido. You're doing great, Sam,

You're on the map as a contestant. Here's your last sound. Oh, sounds like a very enthusiastic applause. Is this applause for a Mark Twayne speaking engagements? Or be the Mark Twayne Prize for American Humor. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this is one of those questions of trickery. The answer is both. It's true. It's both. You were a celebrated public speaker and today the top Prize for

American Humor Writing is named after you. People like Richard Pryor, Tina Feye, John Stewarton would be Goldberg have won it. There's nothing more exciting and talking about oneself. And I believe I know what to do. Now. Well, what's that, Sam? I shall add sound effects to my Memory Builder to be more in line with your wonderful noisy games. Oh uh, well, this is really our noisiest game, and since we already have one, unfortunately, we're still gonna have to pass on

Mark Twain's Memory Builder. I'm gonna have to shoot straight with you, folks. Yes, I a fiction writer. I am desperate enough to tell you the true I was hoping that adding Mark Twain's Memory Builder to your show would make more history of us want to purchase it, therefore sending me the prophet. I'm in a bit of a money pickle these days. Do you know how expensive your launder bill gets to be when you only wear all

white suits? Even all my speaking engagements don't cover. We wish we could help you out, Sam, but hey, go back to the drawing board and let us know if you come up with another game. We'd love to hear any of your ideas well. I appreciate your honesty. Thanks for letting me play. Bye Sam, Bye. Wow. What a good guy, great writer. He's no Milton Bradley though, I tell you what, He's no Bradley Milton either. Who's Bradley Milton the front desk guy at my gym? He's great

and has a nickname for everyone. Oh boy B And that's our show for today. I'm gonna give a shout out to intern Zack Jane, Eric b and our amazing cast which includes Devin Coleman, Megan O'Neill, Adam text Her, Sandia Route, Eric Shack, Zach Timpson, and a big thank you to you for listening.
