I'm sorry, no Steve, no Randall, no Giannis, no Cal, no Brody.

[Corey]

Yeah, true.

[Hansi]

I feel better than a normal one.

[Spencer Newarth]

Okay, let's get some predictions. Seth, who do you think is going to be the Jabroni championship? Win the Jabroni championship?

[Hansi]

I think Hanzi is a strong, strong contestant.

[Spencer Newarth]

Hansi, in our, in our tournament in 2023, he finished like fourth or something like that. So, Hansi, we have evidence he's a strong trivia player. Alyssa, what's your prediction?

[Alyssa]

Oh, I was gonna say Hansi, but I'm gonna go with Tressa.

[Spencer Newarth]

Oh, yeah. There we go. Queen Jabroni. John, how about you? I'm gonna go, Nate. Okay, Nate, who's. Or, excuse me, John. Who's the best at the meat eater store? Did they send their best in you? I think so. Okay. All right. I know, Kate. He holds the record at four. I'm right behind him with three. Okay, three out of ten. So if I went back to high school and playing baseball. Three out of 10, that's a good batting average.

[Corey]

Yeah, that's pretty.

[Spencer Newarth]

So I'll take it. I told the store manager, I said, send your best for the Jabroni championship. And here's John. Corey, who's going to be the champion?

[Corey]

Alyssa.

[Spencer Newarth]

Alyssa. There we go. Tressa, what do you got, Cory?

[Alyssa]

It's his time to shine.

[Spencer Newarth]

Corey. All right, Corey. Hodi, what do you think?

[Corey]

Corey as well.

[Spencer Newarth]

Oh. Oh. Two votes for Corey. Nate.

[Hansi]

Myself.

[Spencer Newarth]

Nate. Okay, couple votes.

[Corey]

Not a true Jabroni.

[Spencer Newarth]

Couple votes for Corey. Now, here's how this is going to work. Like the Meater Trivia Championship. Your scores will carry over into the next episode. So whoever has the most correct answers after 20 questions will be declared the winner, and they will get to make a $1,000 conservation donation. Besides the money, there's another prize, which is this wonderful trophy.

[John]

Oh, beautiful.

[Spencer Newarth]

This. This is great. So this trophy was given to Randall at the Western Hunting and Conservation Expo in Salt Lake. It was made by Gavin and Judd. They played every single week at work, and the winner would get to put their winning scorecard and their name on a sticky note that went on the wall in the break room. Then they decide, hey, that's not enough. We got to do better than this. And so they made this trophy. It was used. It was made using a fork from someone's lunchbox and a pocket knife that they had laying around. And they said, if you look close, you might still find some food on that knife or, excuse me, on the fork. So they welded that together, and that became the office trophy. And when they created the trophy, I got more folks interested. And so their. Their trivia went from just Gavin and Judd to, like, everyone in their department, because everybody wanted that trophy in their office. And then it became a problem. One day, their manager called a meeting and said, this is too much of a distraction. We can't have you guys doing mediator trivia at work anymore. So they gave that trophy to us. And now our jabroni is going to get to display that in their office for a year until we crown our.

[Hansi]

2026 sounds like typical suits on that is impressive.

[Spencer Newarth]

Yeah. Feel the heft on that. That's a heavy trophy. And it's a fork and a pocket knife. What's the pocket knife?

[Hansi]

A shrade.

[Spencer Newarth]

A shrader or a shrade? A shrade pocket knife.

[Hansi]

And it still works?

[Spencer Newarth]

It still works. That's right. And it's a beautiful little trophy that our Jabroni king or queen is going to get to display in their office.

[Corey]

It has a kind of heft that you don't get with a lot of modern trophies.

[Spencer Newarth]

It's very good. It said it took him about two hours of. Of work time to create this. It's a. It's a beautiful piece of art.

[Hansi]

Is that what the manager was mad about? Doing that at the office?

[Spencer Newarth]

Something like that.

[Hansi]

Also, can we figure out who that manager was?

[Spencer Newarth]

Yeah. How about that? That bad manager didn't like any camaraderie at work. They said no.

[Hansi]

No more media trivia, no team building. Yeah. Beatings only until morale improves.

[Spencer Newarth]

All right, the Shelby index for this episode is a six, so our Jabronis should do well with that. We're onto the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil. Look, I need to know what I stand to win. Everything. How's that?

Me neither.

[Corey]

Do you know George w. Bush?

[Spencer Newarth]

No. It wasn't too bad. Corey. All that time you spent in Texas, Shape that accent for you. Yeah. I bet Phil could do a good George w. Bush accent.

[John]

I've never practiced.

[Spencer Newarth]

Okay, you think about it a little.

[John]

Sure, I'll think about it. That's how you practice accents. You just kind of imagine it, and then it comes out of your mouth.

[Spencer Newarth]

[Corey]

I could have sworn it was Dana Carvey.

[Spencer Newarth]

This will make you feel even worse. So joy. George W. That's Will Ferrell is deer hunting with George H.W. that's Dana Carvey. In the season 26 sketch, George W. Plays a buffoon who is easily distracted by rattling antlers. And the skit has a mice of men esque ending where Bush senior considers shooting Bush Jr. As he recovers a deer. In the skit, Farrell is shooting a right handed bolt action rifle off his left shoulder. And that wasn't a joke though. That was just a mistake. Question 9. The topic is conservation.

[Steve Rinella]

I've been running FHF bino harnesses for over a decade and for the last couple years it has been the FOB because it's quiet, it's tough and it just plain works. And it's easy to work. I've worn it in damn near every environment you can think of. Desert, mountains, snow, heat. And it has never let me down. Now they've made it even better. They got new colors, more modularity. And like everything FHF makes, it's built right here in the usa. This is gear you can count on season after season. Pick up yours [e-mail] you're listening to an iHeart podcast.
