Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer Newharth and today we're joined by Giannis Randall, Nate Anthony, Seth and Cordy. This is a 10 round quiz show with questions from meat eaters 4 verticals which are hunting, fishing, conservation and cooking. And there is a prize. Meat eater will donate $500 to the Conservation organization of the winner's choosing. And for the stat of the week. This week we're looking at our donation tracker. Through 165 games of meat eater trivia. We've donated to 68 different conservation organizations and chapters. The most popular choices have been trcp, nwtf, bha, Coloradans for Responsible Wildlife Management, and the Meat Eater Land Access initiative. Of those 68 orgs, 23 of them have received a single $500 donation from Meat Eater Trivia. Randall, I think you're a big part of that. I think you. You spread out the most money. Yeah, I was, I was just trying to find. I had a couple new requests come in. I was Trying to dig up the names of those before we get started here, so. So if you win today, it's going to be a 24th new organization. It depends on how. Cocky bastard. Depends on how reasonably I can work my way through my Instagram messages. Does everybody else hear themselves? Well, I feel like I'm. I feel like I can't hear myself. This one sounds good, Phil. I can hear you loud and clear. Oh, geez. Think it's only I can start. Try plugging it in now. I'm in my head. Oh, this is gonna be a bad one. I can start cranking some knobs over here and see what happens. If you're in your head this early, that's a tough, tough day for Randall. Yeah, I think it's good to spread it around. Get back on subject here. You know, there's a lot of people doing great work for Fish and Wildlife all around this country, and a lot of those smaller groups out there. 500 bucks goes a long way. Yeah. You're so noble. Yeah. Hit up Randall. He'll. He'll keep that going. All right, here's our frequently. Here's our infrequently asked questions segment. If you have a trivia related question for our crew, send it to Trivia atthe meat eater.com with the subject line IFAQ. This one is an FAQ. This is the question I probably get the most. It's. Why don't you have Meteor podcast guests play trivia anymore? It's been a while since we've had a podcast guest play trivia. There's a few reasons I think you're getting a worse show. If we are asking the people in the room to do a Meat Eater podcast, which will go like two and a half hours and then immediately after play Meat Eater Trivia, you're just getting worse energy. I. I think you're probably not getting as good of answers as good of banter. I think it's harder on Phil over there to transition from, like one show to the next show. Yeah, that's a good point. That ain't nothing. That ain't nothing. It's got. It's got to be something. Well, thanks for thinking of me, Spencer. It's really not. Not that difficult. There's. There's pros and cons. I think the way. The way that both me. That the Meteor Podcast is produced is a lot different than it was, however, many years ago when we had players doing that more. More often. Like, like, for example, this episode we're recording today is airing tomorrow, whereas the Meat Eater podcast sometimes will record one and it won't drop for three to four weeks. Yes. Scheduling would get really weird with those episodes as well. I think we are doing the audience more justice by not cramming it in the same, like, afternoon as we do the regular show. You get a better Giannis, a better Randall. I just think it's more fun. You guys have any thoughts on that? Nope. I agree with the energy. I can see that. But I also like the energy of having someone fresh in the room. That's good. There's like a new camaraderie that has to be established almost, though, when it's like we throw a stranger. Yeah. And I think Nate doesn't like to talk. If we have a stranger here and we want more Nate, it has to be the right guest. There's some guests that are interested in playing trivia with a lot of them I'm not. Yes, exactly. And I throw them a bone and that helps. But there's often times where it's like they get the bone right and maybe one or two more questions. And it's not necessarily fun to embarrass them either. And so I either have to make the show something it's not, or they sit there and probably don't have a lot of fun playing trivia like Anthony. But you're fine embarrassing like Nate and Anthony all the time. Sure. I don't think they're on the payroll. Nate doesn't get embarrassed. Never. Nate, you get embarrassed. No, that's the opposite of what I do. I do. If the right guest rolls through here, we'll plug them into meat eater trivia as well. But I would just say don't expect it. Yeah, we don't want the main pod dragging this thing down. That's right. Exactly. This is an elevated product. All right. We have some housekeeping to get to. In our last episode of Trivia, I had a multiple choice question about which state harvests the most deer. Between Georgia, Kansas, Ohio, and South Carolina. The correct answer was Georgia, but in the flavor text, I read the deer population of those states, not the deer harvest. Now, this doesn't change the correct answer. Georgia still harvests the most deer out of those four states. But I want to give the accurate numbers here. Georgia harvests 270,000 deer each year. South Carolina and Ohio harvest 200,000, and Kansas harvest 80,000. Georgia is sixth in the nation for total deer harvest each year. Wow. Damn, son. I want to take a trip down to Georgia. You buy a tag, you get 10 does and 2 bucks Kansas was 80 unlimited. 80,000. They don't. There's a reason they grow their big deer. So I would have got that wrong because nobody's killing them all. Check, check, check. How's it sound over there? We can do some live sound checking over here. I think Spencer would love that. I think it's fine. You don't have to wear the headphones. I know, but I like hearing the headphones. Okay, let's just go. All right. The Shelby index for today is a five, so I'm putting us on perfect score alert. And with that, we're on to the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil. Oh, nice. Sorry, I just got a slack from Corinne when I was trying to turn the lights off on my phone and it covered the switch. Sorry about that outburst. Game on, suckers. Question 1. The topic is fishing, and this will be multiple choice. Which of these world record fish is smallest? Is it brook trout, yellow bullhead, chain pickerel, or yellow perch? Did you have this question? But different species. I've done this question a few different ways. I've done biggest. I've done smallest, swamp to species, in and out. Which of these world record fish is smallest? By weight or length? By weight. Brook trout, yellow bullhead, chain pickerel, yellow perch, that is by weight. Phil is now adjusting a camera. I'll need a little more time. What's the problem? Sorry, Anthony, we were. Hold on. Let me get on Mike here. Okay. Which of these world record fish is smallest? 4 choices. Brook trout, yellow bullhead, chain pickerel, yellow perch. And that is measured by weight. We recorded some kids trivia for an upcoming season of the Meat Eater kids podcast. And some kids got too excited and kicked that camera the other day and I forgot to adjust it. Oh, was it my kid? That would be King Jabroni Jr. It was either Marshall or. No, it wasn't Marshall. I think. I think it was Sage. So yeah, he was kicking. Calling you out. Sage. World record fish is smallest brook trout, yellow bullhead, chain pickerel, yellow perch. This is a tough question to start a potential perfect game with. Players are going to have to earn this one. Corey, are you ready? Yep. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Giannis saying pickerel. Seth says perch. Randall says perch. Anthony says perch. Nate says pickerel. Corey says pickerel. The correct answer is yellow perch. About half the room. Got that one right. The world record brook trout is 14 pounds, 8 ounces. The world record chain pickerel is 9 pounds, 6 ounces. The the world record yellow bullhead is 6 pounds, 6 ounces. And the world record yellow perch is 4 pounds, 3 ounces. It was caught by Dr. C. Abbott in Bordentown, New Jersey in 1865, making it the world's longest standing record for a freshwater fish. Freshwater fish, 4 pounds, 3 ounces. New Jersey doesn't even recognize that as their record anymore. It's under a different category. The only fish in that category, it's called the retired state record. So they stopped recognizing that 1865 catch. What's the current? Oh, it's like half that for New Jersey. Yeah, it's like two pounds something. Question to the topic is conservation. This next great question is via Matthew Stover. This two word term is defined as quote, unquote, the practice of public participation and collaboration in scientific research. This is question two. The topic is conservation. This two word term is defined as the practice of public participation and collaboration in scientific research. Nate, Corey, Randall, all quick to answer this one. Janni, do you have this one? Right? I've got one of the words in the two word term. And question two via Matthew Stilver. This two word term is defined as the practice of public participation and collaboration in scientific research. I'm guessing the state of New Jersey thinks there's something fishy with that 1865 record perch for them to retire. That you'll find that some states will do that. My home state of South Dakota had a fraud channel catfish state record for like 60 years. They had a picture of it. I think it was caught in the 1950s. But you look at the picture and you could tell tell by the anal fin that it was a blue catfish, not a channel catfish. And so people had brought this to their attention enough that they finally retired it one day and started it back at zero. My guess is New Jersey thinks that world record fish fish maybe wasn't real kosher. Yeah, I have questions about how that scale was, was standardized. IGFA recognizes it as the world record. Again, we're on question two. This two word term is defined as a practice of public participation and collaboration in scientific research. Was there a photo of it of the world? I couldn't, I didn't see one online. Maybe it exists, but I didn't hunt too hard. Hmm. Say that was in the 1800s. 1865. Yeah. There's some shady stuff going on back then. He's like, they thought it could pull a fast one. While the nation was mourning Abraham Lincoln. Yeah. The United States was like half of its size. That it is now. Is everybody ready? That's where they h. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Giannis saying citizen science. Seth says public comment. Randall says citizen science. Anthony, survey results. Nate, public comment. Corey, citizen science. The correct answer is citizen science. I think half our players got that one right. Citizen science is when volunteers help scientists gather data. It's most commonly used to collect weather information and track animal populations. Some examples of citizen science include the National Audubon Society's Christmas Bird Count, the Monarch Lava Larvae Monitoring Project, and the horseshoe crab Count. Mountain goat counts, the Rocky Mountain Goat Alliance. You participate in that one every year. That's a good one. No, I have in the past, but it's tough to line those up with my schedule. Busy guy, busy guy, busy guy. Winning. Reading his Instagram DMS about conservation. You're getting dms? Yeah, I get some dms. Wow. Question three. The topic is hunting your dms, bro. Name one of the two states with a bighorn sheep as their state animal. No. Oh, hey, fine. Not that bad. What was that? Randall got very excited about this question, threw his chair back and knocked something off the wall. What did. What did we bring? That was a clay space manager. Oh. Is everything in one piece yet? The frame's not in one piece. The backer and the glass. Oh, wow. Okay. It was a very impressive piece of art done by clay. It should be hung on the wall. Yeah, he did this in high school. That was a heck of a reaction, Randall. Oh, Clay actually made that. Clay drew that? I think he drew it when he was pretty young. He had a dream of, like, a stormtrooper looking character hunting a hog, so he had to put pen to paper, and that's what he created. Oh, wow. That was back in Clay's hippie days. So glad that I now know the backstory of art again. Question three. Name one of the two states with the bighorn sheep as their state animal. Randall has spent most of his time fixing the damage he's done over there. Instead of writing down an answer, this may throw him off. No. Have you been to that museum in Rollins, Wyoming, that has the. Is it the boots made out of the guys? Big nose. George. George. I have not been to the museum. Oh, you should go. My wife went this past week. She was down there for work. Highly recommended. Okay. I like Rollins. Shout out to Rollins. I do like Rollins. A lot of antelope there. I did some rock hounding there. My wife about got stung by a rattlesnake there two times when we were rock hounding some nice wild horses. She got bit. Stung or no. Well, about got bit twice two different times the same day while we were looking for rocks. Are you saying, like, she got bit, but it didn't? No, no. Like. Like she's reaching down to grab a rock and a rattlesnake is within, like, inches of the rock. Stung for. I thought you said stun. Oh, I thought you said like a bee. I thought he said stung, too. Everybody thought that. Yeah. Name one of the two states with a big horn sheep as their state. I think I know one. Okay, is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Yanis sang Nevada. He crossed out Colorado. Seth says Wyoming. Randall says Colorado. Anthony, Colorado. Nate, Wyoming. Corey. Colorado. Correct answers are Colorado and Nevada. Colorado declared the Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep their State Animal in 1961. And Nevada declared the desert bighorn sheep their State Animal in 1973. Both states also feature a bighorn sheep in their department of wildlife logo. Question 4. The topic is public lands. This next great question is via Tyler Sheffield. This national park, which is located in Kentucky, is home to the world's longest known cave system. Randall is now actually repairing the frame. I just wanted to provide some noise. This national park, which is located in Kentucky, home to the world's longest known cave system. Randall, getting more juice in those headphones? I tried to. Yeah, yeah. It actually sounds much better, Phil, thank you. Oh, you're welcome anytime. Yanni was talking about Big Nose George. He. There was a. A handbag that was made out of his skin. There were boots made out of his skin. Well, the guy that had the boots made was the doctor. Right. But he wanted to have the nipples on them so that he could prove that they were legit. And. And whoever sent him off and did them, they were like, no, man. You crossed the line. We'll do it out of human skin, but not with the nipples. I think his. His skull wound up as an ashtray of someone's. Another part of his skull, I think was a doorstop from some. Well, no, somebody. That's the same part is the top part of his skull. And again, this is just from what my wife learned last week. But some gal had it and she. It was a multipurpose item and Doorstop, ashtray, spittoon. The body had been stuffed into a whiskey barrel. Buried for many years. When it. When they recovered it, the two were matched up to bring it. Bring it back together. I love the story of Big Nose George. He was. He was a cattle rustler by Miles City. Right. Who then later had a robbery get out of hand. This national park, which is located in Kentucky, is home to the world's longest known cave system. Randall, do you have this one right? Yes. Corey, do you have this one right? But I didn't fix the frame. Okay, off there. I don't think I got it right. No, I got it. My answer's better than Seth's. Seth has a blank white answer's better than mine in front of him. Oh, I don't know what's going on down there in Kentucky. Yeah, Seth is still in Alaska. I wish. This national park, which is located in Kentucky, is home to the world's longest known cave system. Yanni, you give up? Oh, no, I don't want to give up. How was the fishing in Alaska, Seth? While the days we could actually get out and do some legit fishing, it was. It was all right. Well, I would put it at like a five. It's never as good as it is in the summer. Uhhuh. We got some hal, but got some ling cod that were over the slot. My wife caught like a 47 is 48 inch and yellow perch. No, no perch. Yeah, lots of. Lots of Pacific cod and rockfish and we got two halit the whole time. End your story. Bought Yani enough time to come up with an answer. Is everybody? I had this answer earlier. I don't think it's right. Go ahead and your answers. We have Giannis sang Mammoth. Seth without an answer. Randall says Mammoth Cave. Anthony Daniel Boone National Park. Nate says. What's that say? Not the right answer. Cory says Blue Ridge. The correct answer is Mammoth Cave National Park. What do you guys think about Yanni? Okay. The Grand national park instead of Grand Canyon. Okay, he gets the point. Mammoth's the most important. There are more than 400 miles of known caves in Mammoth Cave national park, making it twice as long as the next closest cave. Geologists believe there could be another 600 miles of tunnels in the national park that have yet to be discovered. Oh, spooky. Question 5. Is there a Daniel Boone National Forest? Yes. Okay, that makes me feel better. Question 5. The topic is biology. This seven letter word is defined as, quote, all the feathers that form the color and patterns of a particular bird. This seven letter word is defined as all the feathers that form the color and patterns of a particular bird. Nate, Corey, Randall, all quick to answer. Seth and Yanni are joining them. That means Anthony's the only one with a blank whiteboard. Can I offer you something for your hosting toolkit? Sure. Yeah. Instead of giving 0 to 10, you should give them a negative 5 to 5 scale. I've heard that this has been brought up by Nate with other. Really? I'm on a mission to change the world. Please explain. Well, if you go 0 to 10, you basically feel obligated to give it a 5 or above. You just. It's not a real. And then, like, if it was a really bad time, there's not a great way to communicate that because 2 is still positive. So if you go negative 5 to 5, 0 is like perfectly neutral. Could come or go, it doesn't matter. Yeah. You know, if you enjoyed it, then you give it a one. I feel like, though, if Spencer asked me that question for the fishing and I said zero, that would have made it sound like I caught zero fish. Well, you're. Were you perfectly ambivalent to the fishing? Do you have an okay time? I had a great time. Then you probably give it like a three. That's pretty good. If you went and caught this eight on a scale of one to ten. If that's my terrible take. Nate. That's my point. Yeah, I agreed for a second at first. You know, it's not relevant with fish. What would you give a day where you caught zero fish? You know what they say about the worst day of fishing beats the best day working here. A scale that does. A scale that does need adjustment is like product reviews of 1 to 5 stars. That's my point. Because if something was like, just didn't show up at all, right. Like, say it was a worst case scenario, didn't arrive in the mail. That should be a zero, but you have to give it a one. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. Or like restaurant reviews, you know, if you really didn't like it, that's a hard negative five. That's what I'm saying. Okay, I could go with that. But fishing. Yeah, I don't do much. Restaurant reviews. Same again. This seven letter word is defined as all the feathers that form the color and patterns of a piece particular bird. Is everybody ready? I only. Do you want to hear my one and only restaurant review story? Yes, I do. I gave one to a restaurant in town and somehow on what, like Google Yelp? Yeah, I don't. Probably just Google, I think. But I had such bad customer service. The food was mediocre too. But the kid told me that they normally don't melt cheese on the nachos. I'm like, you got to be kidding me, dude. Like, unmelted cheese on nachos is not a thing. And he was making it sound like, oh, no. At this establishment. It is. And he was kind. Kind of giving me some slack about it, which is. Which just got me fired up enough to post it. Well, like a month or two later, a. A guy that works for us as a contractor is like, oh, I was talking to my buddy who owns X, and he's like, what's up with that Giannis guy? Did you leave it one star? I don't. I just. I just said. I told him what I just told you. I don't even know how many stars I left him, but it was because this star system's so confusing. Exactly. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Yanni and Seth. I spell saying plumage. Anthony says the look. Nate and Corey say plumage. They got it. The correct answer is plumage. The plumage of a bird serves many functions such as insulation, camouflage, display, and, of course, flying. An individual's plumage will change based on the weather, breeding, age, diet, molting. Phil, we're halfway through the game of trivia. Give us a scoreboard update. Tough game for intern Nate. He's got one point on the board. Nate declaring that last week he beat Randall in his car playing trivia. No, we have no proof Seth. And Anthony actually points a piece. It's not intern Nate. It's intern having Nate because he's got an intern. That had to be the quickest half turn. The quickest anyone's ever gone from being an intern to having an intern. Yeah. Good for you. Thank you. Proud of you. New money. But I have one point, so I'll hang my head in chin. Corey's got three, Giannis has four, and with a perfect game, it's Dr. Randall Williams with five points.

Question 6. The topic is conservation. This is our listener question of the week, which was won by Easton Johnson presenting this great question. Easton is going to get a board game signed by the crew. If you want a chance to win the listener question of the week and send your question to Trivia atthe meat eater.com. come on, East. This musician who died in 2023 founded the Conservation group Save the Manatee Club. This musician who died in 2023 founded the Conservation group Save the Manatee Club. I think this guy's dead. Yeah. I'm gonna put. I'm gonna put down a musician. I have no clue if he's dead or not. My wife gave an answer of someone who was not dead, so see if anyone can join her. Kid Rock, still alive. This musician who died in 2023 found in the conservation. He's kind of throwing. I think he's doing better than ever, honestly. Is he really? Yeah. It's very subjective. Yeah. Well, yeah. Yeah. You think he's a big manatee fan? Tough to tell. You don't like manatees, you get the hell out of here. I would like to. I would like to taste a manatee one day. Died in 2023. Yeah. Did the conservation group Save the Manatee Club. Manatee Ribeye. I meant I bet the whole thing eats like a ribeye. I don't know. It might be behind the broken painting. 2003. I didn't claim my feet. 23 clay. Might be the only guy I know that takes things from his dreams and writes about them, draws pictures about them, and then things happen that, you know, come to fruition. After he's had the dream, his dreams come true. I've never had a dream about a big buck. I'm waiting for that, though. If I have one, I'm definitely going to write a story about it and draw a picture. Okay. Have you ever had a dream about. I Don't think my dreams are vivid enough. Like, I've dreamt about hunting and fishing and, like, you know, finding a really special mushroom. But it's like it doesn't stick with me to where I could come out of that experience and draw a picture of it or write a story about it. All of my dreams involve me doing heinous things, and then I'm wracked by guilt. It's like. It's like Crime and Punishment, and I'm my own little Raskolnikov. You just got to walk around with that. And then I wake up and I'm already anxious before the day starts back. This musician who died in 2023, founded the Conservation group Save the Manatee Club. Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Giannis and Seth and Randall saying Jimmy Buffett. Anthony says kiss. Nate says Elton John. Who's still alive. Corey says Jimmy. Correct answer is Jimmy Buffett. All right. That long ago now. Buffett founded the org in 1981 along with Florida's governor, Bob Graham. The group's mission is to protect manatees and their habitat. Jimmy admired the animal and was once quoted saying, to me, the manatee represents what we all like about Florida. Kind of cruising in warm, clear water and not bothering anybody. Kid Rock would never say that about fantasy. No. Question seven. The topic is fishing. This next great question is via John Schlesinger. Which species of salmon is also known as king salmon? Which species of salmon is also known as king salmon? Corey and Randall, quick to answer. This might keep the perfect game for Randall going through seven questions. Oh, Mr. Black Gums. That's what we like to call them. I should know this. We just call them. We just call them kings. Which species of salmon is also known as king salmon? I need Randall to falter. Aren't you getting anxious? Me? No. Randall. Yeah, you looking at me? He stays anxious. He was out of my. Then there's no getting anxious. Yeah, I don't know this one. Which species of salmon is also known as king salmon? You know. Do you know this one, Yanni? I think. I think so. Okay, I have a guess. I think the other salmon species would be trickier. Oh, sure, yeah. Which species? Maybe a hint. Randall used to be a guide for these. I think so. He knows. Oh, wait. Corey was maybe the first player to have an answer. Now he's changed here. Okay, intern having Nate, though, is stumped. Cory, when you had that tattoo done, did he do it? And then you're like, you know what? Make that fourth. Just A little bit longer. No, no, that's actually the logo for the guide school that I went to. Royal Time Guide School. Shout out to Cody and Laray Henson, Perg, Montana. They raised some good guides there, huh? A few. I mean, it's kind of in your blood. Some of the best in the industry, if I'm judging by present company. How many days did you spend? It said guide school. Four weeks. 28 minus 5 to 5 scaler. Interesting. Great. Learn how to. Mostly learn how to pack on horses and mules, right? Yeah. I've asked Corey this before, but I've. I've interviewed hundreds of whitetails guides for like articles and Rut Fresh Radio and stuff like that. And I found that a lot of whitetail guides like know their property better than they know deer. And so if you had a guide in Iowa whose clients always killed 150 inch bucks, if you took him out of that little habitat and dumped him on a piece of public land in Oklahoma or Kentucky, they would struggle. I found more guides were like that kind of person then they were just like a killer whitetail hunter. Cordy says elk guides, though, they're all killer elk hunters. You agree with that? Yeah. You think so? I mean, knowing your country still behooves you big time, but yeah, they're. It's not quite as nuanced, I think, is that. Oh, as the whitetail game. Okay, let's end that conversation there. I like that. Yanni, is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Giannis saying Chinook. Seth says Randall says Chinook. Anthony Coho, Nate, sockeye. Corey, Atlantic sockeye. Dude, I don't know crap about fishing. Dude. The correct answer is a chinook. So we had Giannis and Randall get that one right. Chinook salmon are the largest of the Pacific salmon in the ocean. They have a blue green back and silver sides. And in freshwater, they turn olive brown, red or purple. They have black pigment along their gum line, which has led to the other nickname. Oh, Mr. Black Gums. Yeah, Black gums are blackmouth. Randall said that before we even got to the flavor. I didn't think that would give it away. That would not. That didn't. Question eight. The topic is cooking. Oh. This five letter brand claims to be the quote, oldest and longest running cast iron manufacturer in the United States. Nate and Randall and Anthony all confident about this one. This five letter brand claims to be the oldest and longest running cast iron manufacturer in the United States. They claim to be or they are. Well, I can't, you know, necessarily check this is what they say on their website. I didn't thoroughly investigate all the cast iron manufacturers to see when they were founded. If you would have said it, they are the oldest, you would have gotten a lot of pushback. Maybe. So then that's why we say they cover basis. That's why lawyers write these questions. That's. Yeah. Yeah. I think I can only name maybe one other. How many cast iron companies can you name? I got three. We're not real knowers. I got two. Impressive. Yeah. Should we. Is everybody ready? Contest. Yeah. A little side bet. Go for it. Write down. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Giannis and Seth and Randall and Anthony and Nate and Corey saying Lodge. They got it. The correct answer. Lodge Lodge was founded in Tennessee by Joseph Lodge in 1896. The company was originally called Blacklock and focused on making tea kettles and kitchen sinks. They changed the industry in 2002 when they became the first brand to sell seasoned cast iron cookware. Prior that, cast iron was sold unseasoned with a thin layer of wax that had to be washed off at home. Phil, let's get a scoreboard update. We have two questions left. We got Nate still in last place with two points. Anthony has three, Seth has four, Corey has five, and the two players left in the game are giannis Boutellis with 7 and Randall Williams with 8. Question 9. The topic is natural history. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. This Native American who served as a translator for the Mayflower had a Disney movie made about him in 1994. Whoa. Randall has already answered this one. This Native American who served as a translator for the Mayflower had a Disney movie made about him in 1994. Him. The hymn really throws you off. Yeah. Yeah. Because the only translator that we know is a female. Randall, do you have this one right? Yes. Okay. But I was trying to come up with the. The real spelling. I can't. Oh, okay. He does know this one. This Native American who served as a translator for the Mayflower had a Disney movie made about him in 1994. Tricky spelling. That's a hint. Phil, have you ever seen this movie? I have not. Randall, have you ever seen this movie? I have not. Again, this is question nine. If Randall has this one right, which it seems that he does, this would keep his perfect game going into the final question. Nate, do you have this one right? I think so. But, you know, the silver lining of this game is now I know I can't dress like a slob and come in here and perform. Yeah. Maybe meet in the middle Like a turtleneck. A zero. No, just like normal. Don't have to dress up. Just dress like a zero. Like a zero. What does that mean? Negative five. Negative five. I'm like a negative three right now. Ah, those are nice clothes. I got socks and stocks on. Okay, yeah, that's weird. Socks and what? Birkenstocks. Oh, yeah. This Native American who served at as a translator for the Mayflower had a Disney movie made about him in 1994. My kids say that it's only cool to wear the crocs or stocks with socks and then if you go barefooted that you're an old guy pervert. That that's true, but I don't think they're talking about white ankle socks and Birkenstocks. No, that's what they wear about socks and crocs. Nate didn't know he was this dude. Look at that. I'm a socks crocs guy. Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. What's that say? Yanni, Etienne, Brulee, Seth. Without an answer, Randall says Squanto. Anthony. Without an answer, Nate says Squanto. Oh, wow. Corey says Lilo and Stitch. The correct answer is Squanto or Squantum. Oh. Squanto was kidnapped by an English explorer in 1614 and spent 2, 5 years in Europe before returning home to America in 1619. He served as a liaison between tribes in southern New England and the mayflower pilgrims in 1620. The Disney movie about his life only made $3 million at the box office and was considered a commercial failure. Randall has the perfect game going into question 10. He's already wrapped up the victory. We'll see if we can double Today's donation. Question 10. The topic is hunting. Which Canadian province has a subspecies of elk named after it? Softball. Which Canadian province has a subspecies of elk named after it? Randall already has his answer. Randall, do you have this one right? I believe so. Okay, Giannis also confident which Canadian province has a subspecies of elk named after it? And Randall is so confident he is farming his Instagram DMS right now to see what the newest org he's going to donate to will be A thousand dollar donation too. Well, let's not count our proverbial chickens before they proverbially hatch. Okay, which Canadian province has a subspecies of elk named after it? Does everybody have an answer? No. No. You best. Right. Is this an obvious one or tricky? Well, Yanni declared it obvious, but so far him and Randall are the only ones who have any confidence, so I don't think this is an Obvious one is the subspecies still alive. Not gonna give you anything. Yeah, that's gonna be helpful. Which Canadian province has a subspecies of elk named after it? Is everybody ready? Ready as I'll ever be. Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Giannis saying Manitoba. Seth without an answer. Randall says Yukon. Anthony says smiling. Nate says Saskatchewan. Corey says Roosevelt. The correct answer is Manitoba. Oh, man. Randall did not count. You're not counting Alaska, Yukon. That's moose. Oh, choked right the last second. Oh, wow. And he's found joy in this mistake that he made. Well, he's only found that because I got the lat number nine wrong. The six subspecies of elk are the extinct Mariums and Eastern elk and the Rocky Mountain, Roosevelt, Thule and Manitoban elk. The historic range of Manitoban elk extends from central Alberta to North Texas. But they're almost exclusively found in Saskatchewan and Manitoba today. Compared to Rocky Mountain elk, Manitoban elk have a larger body and smaller antlers. So they are still around. They are not yet extinct. And I think that they used Manitoban elk to stock North Carolina recently. So the distribution of them is. Is very strange. If you were to look at a map, randall500donation.org is going to be very disappointed in you. Randall, if you had actually read it as elk and not moose, would you have gotten it? Yeah, but it's a worthwhile reminder to not get ahead of oneself. That's what I tell my 12 year old and he goes to school. Read the whole prompt before you start writing. So to get to Instagram, who's getting the $500 today? Randall? The $500 will go to the Connecticut River Valley chapter of Delta Waterfowl of Massachusetts. Oh, wow. All right, what do they got going on? They are a new chapter and they're hosting their first event on June 21st in the form of a kielbalsa shoot, which is not much different than your standard turkey shoot. They're raising money to grow the chapter and build hen tubes and wood duck boxes and working on an effective nest predator management program in western Massachusetts. Okay, $500. Going to a new org for us in a new org, just in general. Sorry, guys. I think of all the ducks you could have. I know. You got the win, Randall. Come on. Yeah. Don't be so hard. I know, I know. It's funny. This will go down. I was surprised when I saw Yukon on your board. I was surprised no one else knew it.
