Gentlemen, are you ready? Start your engines. What I was going to say is let's just do it. We've done enough of this. We? Yeah, we're. I am surprised you didn't just play the music as we walked in. Yo, what is good People of the Internet, welcome back to another episode of the Waveform podcast. We're your host. I'm Marques. I'm Andrew. And I'm Trivia. Yeah, that'll work. This is a trivia extravaganza episode. You know, it's outside of our normal programming, but we do have some scores to settle. We've been accumulating points over the past couple weeks. Andrew, David and I have been answering trivia questions for weeks. An attempt to build up as many points as possible for this moment here. Now we use our points to capitalize and answer more trivia questions. Right. And see who finds the most at the end and is the winner. Yeah, it should be a good time. I'm excited for all of the points that I've accrued this entire season. You do not matter. Quite a lead. But you know, that's why we play the game. We are not fully hosting. Over to our left here we have a score and judges and trivia master table. So I'll let them introduce themselves. Yo, what is up? This is like the 10th time we've done this. You already know what it is unless you're new Here. Oh yeah. Cause people have subscribed a lot recently. If you are new, my name is Ellis. I'm joined by my lovely co producer, actually, really my lead producer, Adam and our temporary scoring guest who comes in when we need him, Alex Wolfe. So good at math. Guys, you guys are not new here, so I don't need to explain this to you. But just to set the record straight, we are going to do our normal 3 seconds segment podcast. Except this time it's only trivia. Nothing but wall to wall questions. Different categories, different thoughts, different ideas. Is this going to light up? Is what going to. No, don't get too excited and then jump scare. But just like a horror movie. I'm going to kick it off to Adam for our first category. Let's get it. I'm excited. We need our buzzers. Is there gonna be a lobster category prior to being exposed to oxygen? What? No. I'm joking. Clear. First category. What would Gemini say? So this is buzzers. Yeah. What are the buzzers? What's the buzzer? Not yet. Not yet. This one will just be. Write them down in a whiteboard. Yeah, yeah. Well we'll ease you into. Don't worry. As they get the whiteboards, I'll explain the rules. So we asked Google Gemini a mix of common and unique questions. I'm going to read you the answer. Tell me if that answer came from AI or if we made it up. First question, which is also the example question. So it's not worth anything, but let's just get it, get it going. Sure. What year was the construction on the Empire State Building completed? Answer. Construction on the Empire State Building was completed in 1931. It officially opened on May 1, 1931. Was that an AI answer or did I make it up? Is this Gemini or just a regular Google search? Straight up Gemini, only Gemini. I was in the Gemini tab and everything. Yeah. What do you guys think? Wait, David's still writing. I'm done. Okay. This is the example question. Okay. So David said made it up. I said AI and I said Gemini. AI. All right. Yeah. So Andrew and Marques would get that point because it came straight from Gemini. That was like the warm up question, right? Yes, that was the warm up question. Showing how the game works. Exactly, exactly. That's why you got it wrong, right? Yeah. You did it just I need to make sure. As an example. Yeah, an example wrong. Thank you for that. Good call, David. Good call. Yeah. Okay. Question two. Where does the Asus name brand come from? Answer. From Greek mythology, based on Zeus, I guess. Did Google Gemini make that up or was that me? Wait, that's so hard, because it could just lie. This could be Gemini making it up or you making it up, but which one did it come from? Flip them and read. What do you got? I said, this is made up from you. I said AI in cursive. I wrote U. I made it up. Yes. Yes. So Marques and David get those points? I think it would understand the Pegatron thing. That's what I kind of thought. Yeah. Okay, next question. What is the pixel density of the iPhone 8? 8. That is exactly what I typed into Google Gemini. The answer? The iPhone 8 featured a Retina HD display, which equates to 448 pixels per inch. Was that Google Gemini, or did I make that up? Or did Gemini make it up? Or did I make it up? Or did Alice make it up? Honestly, hard to say. You guys got your answers? Yeah, but I'm waiting for the music. Oh, okay. Flip them and read. What do you got? We all put AI. We all put AI Wrong. I made that up. Oh, you worded that very. Thank you. Great syntax. It's 326 pixels per inch with the Retina display. Well, Gemini could have lied about that. They could have. That's part of the game. All right, question number three. Well, I guess four at this point, if you count the first one with the Empire State Building, but who's counting that one? What does red stand for in red? Cameras? Answer red. The red. In red cameras does not stand for anything, though. Founder Jim Gennard has stated in interviews that he thinks it means redefining everything digitally. That's kind of cool. Wait, the founder thinks that it means that? Yeah, it technically does not stand for anything, but he likes to think that. Did I make that up, or is it an answer that Google Gemini gave me? What'd you guys say? We all said AI. Nope, I made it up. Dang. It's a hard. We're bad at this. I'm bad at this. Yeah, same. All right, next question. The founder thinks that may stand for. Yeah, whatever. Explain your dollars. Explain what the MLS protocol does for rcs. Answer. Mls, or the Mirrored Legitimacy Signal, is the messaging protocol that is embedded within RCS that points each device to its relative encryption key in order to decrypt messages. Is that an answer that Google AI gave me, or I made that up? That's too complex for Gemini to talk. I feel like Gemini would have told you about Major League Soccer. That's. Honestly. Probably. You asked. Messi plays for Inter Miami. You Asked about the protocol. The. The MLS protocol. What does it do for rcs? That is what I. That was your prompt. Yeah, the prompt. And what was the answer? I mean, you're gonna make me read it again? Mls, or the Merit Legitimacy signal, is the messaging protocol that is embedded within rcs. Don't ask him to read it again and then look bored. I've got banana stuck in my teeth. Ooh, banana. That points each device to its relative encryption key to decrypt messages. Did I make that up, or did Google Gemini tell me that? Gemini. You all said Gemini. Gemini. Wrong. I made it up. Didn't you? Wait. I like your hatchet pattern, Marquez. Oh, thank you. It's nice. Nice. Okay. Wow. I did not think this game was gonna go well. I'm loving it. I don't know if anyone else is having fun. I made it up. Next question. 7,456 multiplied by 18 divided by 3 to the power of 7. No answer. No. 61.3. I. 61.3. Wait, I'm still doing that. 61.3. Tell me the math again. 7,456 multiplied by 18, divided by 3 to the power of seven. What? The answer I got was 61.3. Is that the answer I got from Google Gemini, or is that the answer I got from a calculator, not from a. Well, you could have just made up the answer. I could have, did I? I'm so scared, dude. Okay, you got it. I do. Flip them and read. What do you got? I originally made it up. I changed it to Gemini because I think if I put Gemini over and over and over again, eventually I get it right. I. That was right. That was correct. It was Gemini. Yes. That's the point, because the other two said that I made it up. I did. I got in my head the. The snazzy lab thing you guys did where Mike Hurley made the answer for every single first thing B and didn't realize it. And then I was like, he didn't realize. That's so good. I think he had to have realized. How do you not realize that he just had a child? Congrats to him. Congrats. So he's running on limited sleeves. It's a great show. It was his decision to have a child, so. Next question. What was the code name of the first Google Nexus device ever released? Answer. Love. Did I make it up or did Google Gemini? Tell me that. Just love. Just love. So what are you working on in Mountain View? Love. We're trying to code love instead. They Created Gemini. Wait. This is hard. The answer is just love. The answer is just love. Nothing else. Straight up love. Just love. Okay. Yeah. All right, flip them and read. What do we got? Made it up. Made it up. Finally you all get it right. So you all get a point. I did make that up. AI is way too wordy. It would not just give a one word answer. That's fair. Okay, what was the battery life of the original iPhone? The answer that it gave me all day. All day. Is that Google Gemini's answer or did I make that up? Damn. The battery life hasn't changed at all since the first iPhone. The battery life has actually gotten way bigger. It's just that days have gotten way longer since 2007. When it's spinning, is slowing down. All right, Flippin and Reed, what do we got? You made it up. Made it up. Made it up. All right, y' all get the point. I did make that up. It was actually 8 hours of talk time, 24 hours of audio playback, 7 hours of video playback, 6 hours of web browsing. We used to be a country. Used to. Next question. What does the WH stand for in the WH1000XM4 headphone name answer. Wireless headband. Is that from Google Gemini, or did I make that up? I don't know if I've ever. Actually, I think I know what that is, actually. I know what it stands for. I think that'd be a separate good trivia question, to be honest. Yeah, actually, yeah, Y. Made it up. They all say I made it up. Ellis. Yeah, sorry. I was thinking about the lights. Oh, what sound. There's a lot going on. So Gemini said, isn't it wearable? Headphone. Wireless headphone. I don't know. This is just what Gemini told me. I didn't fact check it. Oh, what? It's what? Wireless headphone. Google Gemini told me the wireless headband headband. I think that actually makes sense because it does differentiate. Yeah, that's true. Wf. And what is wf? Wf. Wireless wireless phone with an F free. Or it means redefining everything digitally. Nice. According to the founder, who thinks it might be that. I don't know. Nice. All right, I'm handing it off now to Ellis for his section. Guys, this is going to be another whiteboard round, so keep those things right in front of you. All right? So as we all know, one of the biggest smash hits in waveform trivia extravaganza history was our startup names Episode. And unfortunately, or segment or whatever, we've used them all we can't do it anymore. And modern startups have ditched the 2010s stupid naming schemes. They now all spell their names like normal people, which is so just an all lowercase with AI at the end. Yeah, exactly. IO But IO I have as I browse through lists of tech companies and you know, I'm using tech very broadly here, you know, because most companies are tech companies now. But as go through these lists, I realized most of the names they use are completely meaningless and nonsense whatsoever. Specifically the ones in fintech or web3 or crypto or payment services. Yeah, because the service is meaningless as well. You know, I couldn't have said it any better yourself. So for this segment, I'm going to lead you between three to four fintech, Crypto, Web three, financial services. You get the idea. Cool. One of the companies in the category is not a fintech company. And you guys have to tell me which one out of each list is not fintech, crypto, web3, blockchain, et cetera. Are they a tech company? Everything's a tech company. I don't care. Can we do a score update too? Yes, Alex. Currently, Marques scored three points in round one to bring his total up to 37 points. David scored four points in round one, bringing his total up to 41 points. Andrew scored two points in round one, bringing his Total to 26 points. The rich get richer. And this is exciting because, David, correct me if I'm wrong, you have never won one of these. That's correct. You are on track. Marquez has won two and Andrew's won one. Yeah. So this is. If you don't, it's Ellis's fault for bringing. Well, David, you do have the most experience in the room working for tech companies, so maybe. Yeah, but I don't know. Not fintech, crypto web 3. Let's kick it off this first company. All three of these, except for one are crypto companies. Crypto companies. Are you ready, guys? Okay, Crypto Block, blockworks, blockfi and Super Blocks says that abcd. Just write which one of those you think is not a fintech company. I did not get letters. Did they spell it wrong? Is that these are all spelled exactly the way you would expect them to. Block, Block Works, Block Phi and Super Blocks. All right, who would like to read their answers first? Literally, I'll put block work, you all put block works. And you're all wrong. The answer was Superblocks, which brands itself as the AWS of internal tooling. Which if I was on a first date and someone was Like I work at the AWS of internal tooling. I'd be like. You'd be like, let's get married. Yeah, right, right. Yep. Denim, silk, quilt and fabric. Are these all? These are all fintech companies. Can you say them again? Denim, silk, quilt and fabric. This is like connections. Wait, also, if anyone in our audience works at one of these companies and it feels like I mischaracterize the industry that your company is in, don't tell me we don't care. I don't care. You could literally just pick a random word. Huh? Yeah, yeah. And then get, you know, VC money. But guys, what'd you put for that one? You all put different stuff. Oh, oh. We'll read your answers. I put silk. And that is correct. David, one point for David Amell. Andrew, what did you put? Denim. Denim, unfortunately is Fintech and Marques. I wrote fabric also Fintech. I'm pretty sure silk is actually a cloud. Soft. Dude, all of these companies, we all knew quilt. I knew silk was a company. I've used quilt. What does quilt do? Quilt is like a payment processing. Okay, so they are also one called plaid. Oh, that's what. That would have been good. That would have been good in the. Sorry, that's what I was thinking of. Not quilt. So I don't know what quilt is. All right, guys, are you ready for the next one? Like, why am I asking you? I don't care. Guys, first company. Here we go. Did you give me my point? Yes. Okay, cool. We have Taboola. All right. Cobra, Kubra, but without the U. Separate company. K, B, R, A and move. M, O, O, V. That's right. Taboola, Kubra. Kubra and Move. Also to clarify, because Rufus was a little confused earlier when we tested this. These are all real companies. Ellis did not make any of these up. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's just. Wait. Well, I found all of these companies in the Built in New York website. So ostensibly all of these companies are actively hiring New Yorkers too. Wow. These aren't even like Bay Area. Every company is a Bay Area just like every company. Maybe the Bay Area friends we meet along the way. Yeah, maybe. You know what? Flip the boards. You're right. All right. Oh, who would like to read their answers? Andrew and I both put Kubra without the U. That is incorrect. That is a company that helps credit reporting agencies restore the their users trust in them. I don't know. Okay, that's also what Marques put. I wrote Kubra with the. Or you or whatever. And that is correct. But oh, wait, Kubra with the whatevers. I didn't know I was wrong. I'm wrong. I had it written. I had it written down wrong. Kubra with the U does AI E commerce and it payment stuff. Taboola is an ad tech and digital media company. I'm sorry, what is the question again? Which one of these is not fintech? Two of these companies did have the same name, right? Just spelled Taboola. That sounds like a restaurant. I'm pretty sure when you gotta check out and you gotta get to your taboo later. I don't know. I'm pretty sure it's the like. Like in an article when it does the fake ads at the bottom that seem like power articles on the. Yeah, is that brings you to different websites, but looks like like other articles. Which is not fintech. All right, I'll be real. I don't want to think about fintech anymore. So we're just gonna do one more of these. Take the ad break. How does that sound, fellers? Sure, sounds good. All right, guys, this last one, we have four companies. Three of them are in fintech slash ad tech. I don't know, bro. This is so. Actually, no, sorry, I'm wrong. This last one is not fintech. Three of these companies are in ad tech because everything's a tech company. One of them is not. Let's go. The companies are 0,55,42 and gum. Gum. That is 0,55,42 and gum. Gum. I hate this. I didn't know I was gonna be tortured today. Really? Disturbia extravaganza. You didn't know you were going to be tortured? Oh, this is the funniest any of your points I've ever looked. Let's read those answers, boys. I said zero. Zero is correct. Zero is an AI powered email client that manages your inbox. You know, I thought that's actually a good name, right? Like zero inbox. I thought about putting zero. You guys put 55 and 42, both of which are wrong answers. I really thought 42 was a like it. Yeah. 42 is analytics stack for retailers and brands. What does 55 do? 55. I just wrote ad tech because I was so sick of writing this category. Tacos again? Yeah. Anyway, you know, tacos, hot dogs. Guys, we're gonna be right back after this break. We'll come back with a score update and in my opinion, one of the best segments we've ever done. Very nice. Teen trivia extravaganza.

Shop NFL by Abercrombie in the app, online and in store. Welcome back to the trivia extravaganza. We are going to start this section off by updating the score. Where are we at, Alex? Frankly, a pathetic round two. Oh, aha. All right. Frankly, round two is pathetic. Two total points scored. Wow, really? Marquez now sits at 38 points after two rounds. David sits at 42 points after two rounds. Andrew's still holding steady at 26 points after two rounds. Okay, are we upping the ante on these points through rounds? Sure. No, it's just one. If you guys want us to go extra hard and make it like 10 point questions, we could do that. Was that so the hear the category name before? No, no, no. You have to decide before because these first two I don't think would be. It wouldn't make much sense for those to be ten pointers but maybe you would have got 20 points. Yeah, but I'm in the lead so I think, yeah, I think we need to maybe throw a random one out there for like 10 points. Yeah. What was David's last job? Guys, this next segment I'm really really stoked on. This one's going to be really, really, really funny, I hope or I'm overselling it and it's just going to be dead quiet as we do this Disneyland. This is not a buzzer nor is it a whiteboard round. This is a round robin round using a shall be unnamed AI tool that has a particularly sort of Dutch sounding name. Gemini. Yes, the famous Dutch name. ChatGPT. Yeah, guys, I wrote a program that scraped the Y Combinator website. Oh no. And from that scrape I took the last three cohorts of Y Combinator companies. Entries, participants, I don't know what you call them, also don't care class. And I took their bylines this quick one sentence description of these companies and I built a list of the top 20 most used words. Oh, in the past three cohorts of Y combinator companies where you're going to go around Robin, around the room over and over and over again and you guys have to tell me what these words are. Okay, they will. As of right now I was thinking it would be one point for word irregardless of rank. But I've heard some bemoaning from the peanut gallery. One to 20. Yeah, it should be. That's how they should be. So you think okay, but 20 points for the top one. Only one time that gets the top one. Yeah. AI, no, do it flip. Yeah, I think, I think the 20th word should be 20 points and the number one. Oh, that's a good one. Yeah, I like that too. Yeah. Okay. All right. Are you scorer? Are you able to handle this? It's right in front of me, I think. Great. Can, can I trust you to cross out words that we've already gotten. Absolutely. All right, guys, I think we should do Snake Draft, by the way. Okay, we're doing Snake Draft then. And I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 10. 7, 8, 6. Marquez has it. He always does. So does that mean I go first? It does mean that you go first. I would like to choose going second. Wait, no, you go first. You go first. I'm not. This is. We've already spent too much time drafting this snake. It's too hard. May I remind you the number one word on this list used 8.5. Sorry. I guess. Let me give a little bit more explanation. So just remember the 20th most used word, the least frequently used word on my list is worth the most points. Wow. I filtered out all the, like, stupid words. So there's no. There's no the. Yeah, there's no. And there's no. These are all either nouns or verbs or whatever. And one more time, give me the context. It's the words in the bios of the top. What bylines. So the one sentence description of the last three cohorts of Y combinator companies. So the descriptions of the companies. Yeah. So this is spring 2025, fall 2025 and winter 2024. And another nitpicky question. Are different conjugations of the same word all the same word? That is an excellent question. And I have grouped together different conjugations of the word or I've also grouped together plurals. Are acronyms allowed? There are no acronyms on this list. Good to know. So with my first pick, I am picking build. Excellent choice, Marques. Build is the third most used word. Wow. Making up 1.3% of all words. Words used in Y combinator descriptions. In the last three cohorts used 32 times. If you include building and builder, you're saying there's no acronyms in this. There are no acronyms that I see on my list. So the very. What number acronym? Oh, AI. Yeah. Wait, okay, then I'm gonna say AI. Yeah, that is. Wow. Jesus. All right, well, you just chose the number one word. I know, I just want to make sure I get a point. I thought there's no acronyms. Yeah, I forgot that AI was an acronym. But that's number. But number one, you got better points. You got better. Yeah. You did better. Number one's worth less points. Number one is worth the least amount of points. I feel really stupid forgetting that AI is an acronym. I just think of it as a self contained turd of SH. T At this point. Okay, I Forgot it. Because it's. Anyway. Yes. AI guys, I just want to lay this on you guys. AI makes up 8.5% of all words used to describe companies. These percentages, by the way, guys, I calculated before removing filler words, meaning all words that Y Combinator companies use 8% of them, including of. And. And. Yes, including of. And a and the AI is used 8.5% of the time. Insane. David. Okay, scalable scale. Scale is not scalable. Is not on there. I'm so sorry. Nope, not anymore. But you get to go again. What about democratize? That one is what. Dude, I was thinking like we are building this to democratize this. You gotta. You gotta think stupider. Really? Yeah, way stupider. Marquez put build three points. Yep. Andrew, that takes us back. What about. Oh to you? Okay, sorry, I can't tell if this is a stupid one or not. Is 10x a word? 10x not an acronym? 100x100GEX, Marques. Back to you. Okay, let's see. Trying to go for high points here. So the description of the company. I'm going to use the word help. Help Marquez is way better. Yep. That is worth 18 points. It was used nine times. So I'm behind now. Yes, by quite a. Oh my God. And the second. You gotta start getting stupid, man. Does snake mean I go again? It does mean you go again. Okay, for my second pick, entire season out the window, swear to God. Does the word bring qualify justice for me? I don't see it on my list. I can't remember if that's when I scratched or not. I don't think I would have scratched bring. So it is not on the list. You know, every time I run into someone who watches the show in the real world, they say, man, you're really killing it at trivia. There's tons of times. David, David, there is. There are so many points on the board. If you nail your next two guesses, you could earn 39 points before it gets back to Andrew. All right. Yeah, right. Deliver. I do not see deliver on my list. I'm so sorry. Basically bring. I hit the wrong button. I'm really sorry, Andrew. I was not trying to add insult injury there, I swear. David, what about we? That's like. That's a. I'm gonna let you guess again. Oh, okay. I'm unusually benevolent today. Platforms. Ooh. Platform is the sixth most used word giving you six points. It was used 17 times, David. Gotta get stupider, man, if you want these high point ones. What's just hit your head on the desk a few times and think about tech code. Code. Is the 17 number. 17 worth 17 points? David, we're back. David. It was used nine times, including. And I lumped in with that code. Coders vibe, code and code base. Nice. Way to go, David. I knew you had the dumbness in you. Andrew, that means we're back to you. I don't think this is a filler word, but new. I do not see new on my list. I do not remember. Got to think stupider, man. New. It's new. Try again. Three letters. Try again. Okay. It's because no one's making anything new. No, it's not that. It's that when I say dumb, I don't mean, like, low diction words. I mean that either. It's just. I got one. I mean, why Company. I have one. My next guess is sweet. Like S, U, I, T. Like S, U, I, T, E. No, but you do have a second guess. Okay, I have a really good one. Let me write this down. I think I have a good one. My next guess is productivity. So sorry. Damn. These companies do not care. So sorry. Okay. I have one. Yes. Together. Together was on my list, but it is not in the top 20. Okay. Cloud. Cloud is not on my list. It's of the top 20. But this is what I'm talking about. You have to think like, there's two words relating to AI still on this board, one of which is worth 19 points and the other, which is only worth 2 points, learning. Unfortunately, you did not get any of them. Yeah, but you're getting closer. All right, I have it. Model. Model is worth 19 points. Way to go. It was used nine times in the last three cohorts. Oh, man. Oh, I know one. And now it's my turn. And now is your turn, Marquez. Service. Wow. I'm surprised that one's not there. What? It was used four times. I feel like we're both machine. Machine, unfortunately, is not on the list. Jesus. Might have been worth inferring that from learning not being on the list. But, hey, I don't tell you how to use your guesses. There's other machines. All right. Language. That's what I was going to use. I knew we were going to. I knew. I do not see. Oh, wow. Well. So that's what's. Yeah. Yeah. So maybe I should have taken that back. Marquez, I humbly apologize. So, one thing I was surprised by, and this is AI related, is how many companies used this word. Because I did not think of it as, like, a fresh wave of AI. Stuff that people were developing. But it makes sense. It's a mode. It's a mode. Autonomous. Is it. Is it your turn to guess? It is, yeah. Oh, wow. Really? Really? It's too smart. Computer. Wait, that's. No, I'm not gonna guess that. That's stupid. But there's. Computer's not on there. Do we already guess we got a system? Did we guess? Are you reading my mind? No. Is that your mind? Yeah. System. Your guess? Yes. System is worth the most points on the board. David, let's go. You just got the 20 bomb. I swear to God, it was nine. Warhead. Yeah. I said operating system's not on here. Let me just guess. System. Okay, why don't we go. Everyone gets one more. People. Who do you want to buy? Your. Dude, I think too hard. I have to go with operate. Got one more streamline. Too smart. Oh, that was a really good one. Oh, my God. Subscription. Oh, my God. Fast. Oh, get it out. Oh, I got one. Okay. It was gonna steal it again. I swear to God, if I write this down right now. Oh, man. Personal so far. I get one more. You do get one more. Okay. Yeah. This. This helps. Database. I'll give it to you. I'll give it to you. Data was used 16 times, making up around half. Is that the one you wrote? No, but that should. You have to say data. That's crazy. Wow. Seven points. I thought it was 16. No, no use. 16 times. Oh. Oh, it's not in the 16th. I think I got 16 points. Andrew app. It's 2010. App is an acronym. There's not a single app or application. Okay. Marquez, I believe you had a word you were very excited about. Yeah. Optimize. All right. Care to try again? If you read my mind, I swear to God. And then I had another. I guess I should consult a master list for more of these. And you said people are. How have we got in the four hardest ones? You say people already. I said. You did say people. There is a word that refers to groups of people that is on this list. I was going to say masses, but I don't think that's it. I'll just say it. Masses. It's probably not that. Yeah. Okay. Internet customers. Wow. I've already given you a hint, David. I'm sorry. There's a few clients still. Obvious ones that are. That are here. Oh, wasn't that. No, it's not that. I didn't say. But you guys are going to be so mad when you find out we don't have the number Two. We don't have number two. I got. I got a bunch. The number two is so obvious. Electronic. Oh, my God. I don't know what would be right behind AI. Internet. No. Android. All right, what would be what's right behind AI? What word almost always follows the word? I have one. Service. Was service on here? No, I already asked service. No. Also agent. Agent is correct. Used 68 times. That's two. Agent. Yeah. My guess is crypto. Crypto? Crypto's out, bro. VCs are not interested. It ain't 2021 anymore. No, it's not. But you do get one more guess and it should end on David. So do you want to do. Should this be it? Do you want to end this or do one more time? I think one more. Okay. Okay. Blockchain. I just said. Oh, sorry. Okay. No, no, you already did. All right, Andrew. Andrew, this is your second to last guess. I know. No pressure, love. This is a really good game. Interface. Interface is not on my list, unfortunately. Marques Financial. Financial is not on my list. Rapper. Rapper is not on my list. User. User is not on my browser. Browser is not on my. No, browser's not on my list. All right, we're done, guys. Excellent job. So some of the funny ones you guys missed include powered, slash power software. You guys did not guess. Voice was the AI mode that was here way more than I thought it would. Sales. Real was on here a lot. It was B2B. The word for groups of people was team. Team was used 14 times. So obvious. Here's one that really threw me for the loop. The 12th word on my list used 12 times, coincidentally, was cursor. Oh, because things are being built on cursor. No, because so many companies just refer to themselves in their byline as the cursor of blank. Wow. Yes. Cursor. Cursor is an AI coding app. Exactly. It's like a dedicated environment. Do you want to just read the one coding? Do you want to just read the one through 20? Yeah. Can you just read it in order? Number 20 system used nine times. Models 19, nine times. Yeah. So sorry. 20 through 17 are all tied. System models, help code, Help, Help, helping helpers. Wow. Et cetera. Damn. 1610 times. Healthcare. 15 sales. 14 real. 13 native. What is real like real experience? Native is good. That's a good one. Was experiences. One experiences is not on here. Then we have Cursor, team, source, voice. Open. 7 is data, 6 is platform, 5 is software, 4 is powered, 3 is build, 2 is agent, and number one, AI making up 8.5%. We didn't say software. The funny thing is you said think of as dumb as possible. And I thought button, which is not that far away from power. Guys, before we get into our next segment, we need to do a score update because points were flying around that round. I might be cooked now. No, I think David, like, really took the lead on that one. Yeah, not really, but kind of. So contrary to round two, where only two points were scored in the whole round, we now have seismic updates to the score. Andrew began last round with 26 points, scored 22 more points. Wow. Well done. Which brought him up to 48 points total. Dang. Marquez began last round with 38 points, scored 21 points to bring him to 50, 59 total after three rounds. David had 42. After round two, scored a whopping 50 points in round three. Are you serious? Yes. Giving David now a grand total of 92 after three rounds. You wanted to go big and you went big. We might have messed this up. As long as the values of upcoming questions are still high enough to mean anyone can win this next section, everything is ten pointers. That's fine. If you guys sweep me by the end of this, I'm gonna be so sad. 1. Screw it. No rules. 10 points per question. My guys. This next one is called the Chicken of the Egg. We're gonna read you two the chicken products. The chicken. This is the chicken of the egg. Okay. This is a c. Chicken of the sea. Right? I'm. Now I'm referring to. What's the. Rick Ross. Oh, yeah, the DJ Khaled, Rick R. The almond of the coconut or whatever. No, no, no, no, no. The mathematician who uses eggs as the. The mathematician uses eggs to explain dimensions. You talking about what we're thinking about at all? It's on the tip of all of our tongues. It's like if you. Who said that? It's the guy who was like. If you have a. If you have a 2D egg and you're a 3D being, you can see the 2D chicken floating inside the egg. Because a 3D being can see all sides of a 2D object. Is there a 3D chicken inside the 2D eggs? If there's a. No, there's a 2D chicken inside the 2D egg, but if there's a 3D egg with a 3D chicken inside, a 4D being would be able to see the. Anyway, guys, chicken or chicken? The egg or the egg? What is a four dimensional being? We don't know. Do I need to explain it? It's a being that exists in four dimensions. The fourth dimension is time. Oh, that answers that. Yeah, it's. No, it's theoretical. It's theoretical. It's. If there was a fourth axis for us to exist on. There is time. Can't move around in it. Right. That's one. Okay, everyone. Don't I exist? The fax machine or the blender? My marker is running out of ink, which is not great. You guys have extra markers? Oh, that's a Sharpie. I can't use that. Yeah, all right, whatever. Blender. The app is, like, not that old, right? No, no, it's fairly old. I used it in. Joking. I'm talking about the electric blender. I used it in college, and I'm really old, so it's pretty old. Don't forget 10 points on the line. 10 per question. All right, what did you guys put points or. I put blender, and Andrew put fax. The fax machine is not just older than the blender. It is way older than the blender. The fax machine is so old that it predates the telephone. That's right. They were sending photographs over telegraph wires prior. Yeah, but telegraph and fax machines are different. No, the wires that were sending Morse code messages were also sending photographs over them in the 1860s. I'm gonna have to fax check that. Please do, guys. Number two. The QWERTY keyboard layout or the modern paperclip? The modern. Why is that a specific? Because it turns out a lot of people tried to make paperclips, and they were not very good. And then we got this one, and everyone was like, all right, we could. We're done with this. We figured it out. This is what's newer or what's older? What's older? Older. What is older? Which is the egg? Wait, no, disregard that. That's the whole question. The whole question is, which is older? Is it 2D or 3D facsimile? I have no clue when paperclips came around. So what do we got? I'm going qwerty. Qwerty. I'm also going is correct. That is 10 points. That was newer. Really old. It's from 1878. I thought it was like, a new Japanese guy did it. No, no. Actually, there's rumors that it's Remington that did it. I. So I am pulling the first Remington typewriter from 1878 that had it. However, there were two or three typewriters prior to that through the 1870s which had things that resembled the QWERTY ANSI layout. However, they were not exact, so I'm counting studio short on 1878. Oh, that's right. I forgot about that. Wow. All right, guys, these next one I want to try to go as a lightning round, so get ready to write these really fast. Ready. Okay. Fubo or Tubi? What do we got? Why? I'm not expected to know these, right? I said Fubo. You said Fubo. Same. I said 2B. 2B is correct. Way to go, David. All right, follow up. 2B or Roku. I keep forgetting Roku fits in this constant vowel. Consonant. Vowel. It better be what I think it is. And the answer is. Please, Roku. Nope, the answer is still too. So OG2B is from 2014. Roku's from 2017, according to my notes. Wait, what 2017 to be? No, Roku was around when I was in college. I think Roku's been around for a bit. 2002. So Roku is. Yeah, but it doesn't change anything because we all got the point. Yeah. Well, give us all points. Great. 10 points for all of us. I was like, no way. Yep. No, I see where I got it wrong. In 2014, Roku released their first TVs with Roku's built in. But they were a box beforehand. They were a box. Yeah. Continuing with the trend. Roku or Mubi? Do we have to spell it right? I don't. All right, what do we got? I wrote Mubi. Roku is correct. Marquez and Andrew. Did you get that one right? Okay, ten points for Marques. All right, one more. Guys, I swear this is not annoying. Mubi or Pluto. Oh, that's right. Five letters. Innovator, Disruptor. Hardly know, but what do we got? Ready? Movie. I wrote movie. Movie is correct. Yes. Damn. Point. Oh, Marquez got that wrong. Yeah, wrong. I've never heard Pluto that like Pluto. Tv. I don't watch tv. TV channel. It's not fake. It's real. The whole category of tv. But I don't watch tv. It's legal. It plays ads. Stumble upon or Reddit. Which one came first? I know. This Chicken or the egg? What do you guys put that? Stumble Upon Because. Stumble upon as well. So 10 points each for David and Marquez. Because I was using Stumble upon when I was a freshman in high school, but I only started using Reddit when it came out when I was like a junior, so. All right. Shazam. Or tivo. Tebow. Oh, Shazam. Or tivo. Seeing the little tivo guy when I was researching that just brought warm, warm feelings to my heart. I love that little dude, my friend's dad was, like, the regional manager of Best Buy and he had TiVo because he was rich. It was cool. I didn't have it, but it was cool. The controller was cool. Had the little guy. Now we just have YouTube, TV. YouTube, TiVo, Flippy and Reid. What do we got? TiVo. TiVo. Correct. A. It was TiVo 99. 2000. Wow. Shazam actually launched as an SMS service. Really? Yeah. Where you. Where you would call the Shazam number, hold your phone up to a speaker, and they'd send you a text message with what song is. Why don't they just tell you on the other side? Because your phone would meet your ear, you'd be like. That's actually really impressive. That's, like, very innovative and interesting. You know, Twitter was an SMS service. Guys, I have. I have. Really? You could tweet with sms? Yeah, that's how it started. Yeah. Remember when Domino's, I had 140 character limit. That's some trivia right there. SMS was 144 characters. Do you guys remember when Domino's had an SMS service? Never heard of it. No. Really, Andrew? Even you. I just called. There was a period of time where you could, in your Domino's account, register your phone number and, like, your favorite order. And if you texted. And your credit card and if you texted them the pizza emoji, it would automatically place the order for delivery to your house. Wait, bring this back, bro. We need this technology now. Also the basis of the Wii app. The Wii app? The Wii dominoes app. Oh, yeah. I don't know this. There is a Domino's app on the Wii. There is a domino. It's like a channel. Like the Domino's channel. Yeah, yeah. All right, we got it. It's dope. Wow. Okay, guys, guys. This one is not exactly tech, but it's sort of tech. And this one I. The Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The snes. Snes. The snes. Or Chabata bread. Okay, looking for the older one. They do love ciabatta and sf. I wonder if a tech company invented ciabatta. That was actually the ninth word in the Y combinator. AI ciabatta platform. Ciabatta bread is a type of bread. Yeah, it's the Italian answer to the baguette. Newer, Right? Newer. We're looking for older. No, I am looking for older. Yes, SNES. No, Ciabatta is older than the SNES, but only by eight years. Oh, really? 1982. Yeah. Think about that. As children, none of our parents had ciabatta. They probably still aren't. I might not have had Ciabatta either. My words too hard. Ciabatta me crazy. All right, let's get a quick update on the score and then take it to one more break. Our scoring update after four rounds. It looks way more impressive and yet is the same situation because you all scored 50 points in that last round. Okay, so Marquez now sits at 109. Andrew now sits at 98. Wow. And David is sitting pretty at 142 points. Jesus. Wow. Damn. And the next round, everything's worth a hundred points. I mean, we're all 50 points apart. So, like, reasonably, if everything's 10 points again, we could still win. Yeah, let's make it. Everything's one point. But there's one giant question. Okay. Yeah. What is David's middle name? All right, well, we got one more category after the break. It's one with the buzzers and one audio round. So stay tuned. Anyone can still win. We'll be right back.

We have got a little funky little thing that we've never actually done before. This is gonna be very new for us. We'll see if it's actually fun or Not. And then we're gonna be doing our world famous audio round. Audio round. So, guys, Adam came up with a really interesting idea for a category, which was we're gonna write descriptions of famous apps and their icons. Specifically. Just their icons. Famous apps icons. The icons of famous apps descriptions. Okay. And then have you guess what? They were based on those. But then we thought, wait, no, that's no fun. It is fun, but we could make it more fun by having insert AI assistant write the descriptions for us. Okay. And then we realized we could have even more fun by visualizing it by asking them to do it as specific characters. What, like Homer Simpson? Not that specific. Oh. As general characters like Charmander. So let's. Let's do this first one. This first app's description is going to be read as a pirate. How are we answering these? You have to tell me what the app is on the. On the whiteboard. Yeah, with your mind. Could have just yelled it out. Duh. Okay, how are we feeling? I really hope this is funny. So we're getting descriptions of apps, icons. You're getting descriptions of icons, and you have to tell me the app. But each description is not only generated by an AI And I tried to clean it up as best I could to just remove wrong stuff or stuff that didn't make sense, but it still is pretty AI y because this has been a weird one. This is now worth 20 points. This will be the first extrap we've ever ended where we might have people with more than 200 points, which I'm just so excited for. Okay. All right. Here is my impression of a pirate. Ahoy there, mateys. I be seeing a symbol that looks like a colorful hashtag or crosshatch pattern tilted at a jaunty angle, like a ship's wheel catching the wind. Tis painted in four bold colors. I wish this was ocean blue, sunset red, doubloon yellow, and green, all crossing each other between the spaces in a ship's. Like the spaces in a ship's rigging. I would make a fine flag for gathering the crew together. This is that lost pirate episode. Everyone's. Dude. I was so mad because when I had to make the pirate soundscape, I was like, I've done this so many times for that pirate episode, and it was on an old computer computer. So I couldn't, like, just. Anyway, I'm complaining. What do you guys have? Did you all put slack? We all put slack. I hear the bubbles. I put bubbles in there. That is correct. Oh, I wish this was a buzzer. A Colored hashtag. I was like, yep. Next one is a pinwheel. Oh, everything's a pinwheel. All right, guys, next one's red, yellow, blue, and green. Guys, this next one. This next app will be read in the voice of a robot. Okay. Beep boop. 00-010. ChatGPT or Anonymous. AI did add a lot of beep boops in the robot one that I had to clean out. Okay. All right. Are you ready, guys? Analyzing visual signal processing. I observe a circular green interface element colored in optimal hue 3.4C759 for maximum visibility. That's green. Sorry. This is so funny. Contained within a circular boundary is a white speech bubble icon designed to represent textual communities, communication protocols between humans. The geometric state follows standard conversation bubble parameters with a small triangular protrusion indicating message origin point. Beep boom. Triangular. Okay, I think I have it. Got it. Got it. That was fire, dude. Thank you. Thank you to you. Oh, please. Also, there's a delay in my headphones, which is why I was reading at a snail space. Like, just enough of a delay to make that really difficult. All right, let's flip them. I think it would have been entertaining to see us the progression of things we were writing before we got to the last thing. Wait, we all said WhatsApp? That was not the answer I was looking for, but I forgot about WhatsApp, so I was looking for iMessage. But I'll give you the point. IMessage is not an app called the Messages. The app is called Messages. It's a protocol. What's the. The white robot message? I don't. I don't. I don't care. So you're giving us points for why you guys get points. All right, this next one. This next one is as if. This next one is if you are a. No, this next one is as if you are a doctor reading a diagnosis. Wow. I hit the wrong computer. Well, I've reviewed your test results, and we need to discuss what we're seeing here. There's a distinctive white ghost present, and it's quite prominent and appears to be set against a bright yellow background. The ghost has a somewhat playful demeanor with what looks like a tongue protruding slightly, which, while unusual, doesn't appear to be serious. I don't think that's the official app logo. I'd recommend we monitor this thing closely, as it seems to have a tendency to make things disappear. We're losing him. We're losing him. That's the company logo, not the app logo. What's the app? I. Dude, doesn't have the tongue. It doesn't have the tongue. That's the difference. Yeah, there's no face on it at all. It's just the silhouette. Anyway, we all know what it is. It's chatgpt's fault. Not surprised. We all said Snapchat. Way to go. Cool. I don't even have Snapchat, but I did it one time because I'm not a youth. All right, guys, this is this app, which now I have no idea if it got the icon or the logo, so just. Just good luck. This one is a Revolutionary war era soldier who woke up in the future and is seeing this icon for the first time and is confused and awestruck. Okay, okay. By my musket and my powder horn. What manner of sorcery is this? Tis a red. A red background. Red as the British coats we fought against at Lexington. Within this crimson field lies a white. My God. Is it a white triangle? I believe it is pointing to the east, as if waiting for the sun to rise. Good sir, pray tell, what technological marvel from your time does this symbol represent? That's it. That's it. A white triangle in a red flag. In a red. In a little. In a red box. I thought it was something else, and, I mean, I hope. I might have no idea what that is. Hey, that's a fife. Sorry. Oh, fife dog. Actually, I. Fife and a flute are the same thing. I don't know why I. Get this buzzer ready? Yep. Do it. I really wish David got that one wrong, because everyone got it right. Say it. One, two, three. YouTube. YouTube. Wow. Okay, so this is. This is way easier than I thought it would be. This next one, I'm going to read as if I am a morning doctor. Host Radio. Like FM AM radio host. Wvfrm. Wvfrm. Exactly. Are you guys ready? Yes. Upbeat morning radio voice with. I couldn't find the right music for this, so we're just. No, it just has to be, like, slight static. AM radio. Yeah, yeah. AM radio. That's where all the talk shows are anyway. Like that. No, that's. Okay. The time code. Guys, let's kick it off. Good morning, WVFRM 101.5. Picture a bright coral pink background, fresher than your Morning Joe. In the center, a white A with attitude. Dude, it's one continuous line with style, no breaks or gaps. WVFRM listeners, what app are we talking about? A white. Wait, no, don't do that. You said a white A. A white A with attitude made of one. The More time you give line, the longer till they get right. An A? Yes, an A. All right, flip your boards. Wait, Flip your boards. No, not yet. All right, flip your boards. All right, David, you better hurry up. David, time to flip your boards. 3, 2, 1, flip. What did we put? Wow. Good job, Marquez. That was pretty good. It was Airbnb. Airbnb is correct. I put Apple stores. I wrote Apple Incursive. All right, guys, we have one. I mean, you got that quick. Yeah, we have one more. Can you hit the. I literally booked an Airbnb. As soon as you tell me the color, I have, like, a set of icons in my head. Okay. All right, we have one more. This is as if you are an astronaut radioing home. Nice. From outer space. Outer. Inner space. I don't know. Yeah, inner space. You're about to land on a planet so good I can't find. These voice changers are amazing. I had an Outer space. We'll do the robot one again. Here we go. No, I like the outer space. No, no, no. I had. Houston. Houston, we have a problem. This is Commander speaking from the landing pod. I'm approaching a fascinating celestial body here. It's got this deep blue, cosmic blue surface that reminds me of Earth's oceans from orbit. This most remarkable feature is. No, excuse me. The most remarkable feature is a large white symbol in the center that looks like the letter S, but it's curved and flowing like a sound wave. The entire formation pulses with a musical energy. This S, it floats on the blue background. Oh, God, I'm picturing. What is it called? Oh, yeah, it's. It looks like it's already been the answer to a trivia question in this game. You should answer that. All right, flip them and read. Oh, man, I got it wrong. What did we get? Shazam. Shazam. I wrote Skype. Ah, I can see why you would say that. Look what I wrote. I wrote. This one's pretty fun. I started writing App Store, and I started writing Skype, and then I landed on Shane. Wait, we can make all of our voices sound like dope. No, just mine. Over. Dang it. I'm gonna need. Okay, that's all for that round. Which means it is time for the audio round. The audio round, guys. Which is no longer needed. Bangers only. Don't hate me, because I have no idea if this one's gonna go well or not, because we've used so many sounds. So many sounds. There's none left. And so. So I did some thinking, and I realized this audio round, this whole Audio round thing. It's not actually about the audio, man. It's not. It's about the friends we made along the way. It's about nostalgia. It's fair. And what better feeling of nostalgia? What better form of nostalgia? Runescape is what's better. Can you tell? We've been podcasting for almost four hours. Four or five hours now. Guys, what is better than remembering the feeling of hearing the alarm you used to wake up to in high school and having shivers straight down your spine? That's what we're doing today. I, on xda, found a guy who ripped all the system sounds from all the phones. Nice. And put them all up in a Google Drive. And I downloaded the ones that weren't from China, because those are the ones that you guys might actually know. Those are pretty. The China ones are pretty. They were really, really, really good. The. Yeah, some of them were like. The Huawei ones are so. Like, the Huawei ones were amazing. Anyway, guys, I'm gonna play some ringtones, some system sounds, some alerts, and you gotta tell me what phone it was, what phone it came from, and I really wish I could use the buzzer phone or what company. Company. Company. Oh, so we're still writing them? Yes. As an example, if I were to play this. Damn. You would all know. That is. No idea what that's from. Wait, none of you know what that's from? It's. I picked that as the obvious one. Are you serious? You guys know what that's from, right? It's my dad's ringtone. Has been for 20 years. That's on a phone, dude. Sony Ericsson or something. What? What? Guys. That shipped with the original iPhone and has been on every single iPhone since. But it's not the default. It might be the default alarms. That's like. No, that's like. Oh, Marimbo is the default. That is like one of the most iconic iPhone ringtones of them all. Beg to differ. I've heard it before. Twitter. Now is your chance to tell Marques Brownlee he's wrong about the iPhone. I think they're gonna yell at you. There's some. There's some iconic. I don't know if that one's. All right. All right, well, let's see. Well, then maybe this is audio round. Is gonna fall so flat because none of you have ever heard any of these before. We'll try. Let's see. You guys know this one? I had this on one of my phones. I haven't heard it, but I could guess what that also sounds like. A Sidekick or something of, like, the 2000s. The company, I would say. Let's say the platform. Can you do it again? So if you say Android, I'm going to assume you meant. You mean AOSP as opposed to one UI or TouchWiz or any of these other things. It's definitely not AOSP. All right, one more time. That's a different one. I don't even remember which one I did. Was it this one? Yeah. Are we guessing this one? Yeah. What do we got? Oh, I just. Hey, stop the clock. Well, I said my. What do we got? Motorola. I wrote htc. You're both wrong. Oh, that was an AOSP one. You all got it wrong. Really? Yeah. That's an every Android phone. Yeah, up until a certain point, if you look hard enough. All right, what about this one? Mm. Oh, I feel that. Oh, man, it sounds like a Vulfpeck song. Yeah. Okay. No clue where it's from, but it sounds cool. Oh, it seems like people are ready. Yeah. Yeah. What do you got? Wrote Motorola. Oh, wait, Motorola is wrong. Or Apple. Apple is wrong. I wrote Sony. All right, this is not going well, you guys. I. We don't really listen to. We keep our phones on silent. Yeah, I don't know about you. This is tough. Were you never children? Well, sure, yeah, but. But I. Okay, but, like, if I play this one, you'll all recognize this, right? Holy. Their phones have been on silent for years. You don't understand. I care about other people. All right, well, I'm just gonna take you through a bunch of my favorites then. This one's from the LG Wing. This is. Mm, that's cool. Wow. This fell totally flat on my face. My LG Wing was never. There's one I can remember within the last 10 years, and that's the one ASUS one that sounds like under the Sea. Yeah. My friend's brother makes all the ringtones for the Pixel. Oh, that's Samsung. Every time, that's Samsung. Yeah, Because Samsung is over the horizon. A remix of the Horizon song over and over. Okay, here's a wacky one. People hated this sound so much that when you search, when you just try to find, like, insert phone, insert. This is the camera shutter sound effect. Insert phone camera shutter sound effect. You can't find anyone posting the sound effect by itself. It's just people being like, how do I turn this off? Oh, I've heard that. That's a Android. That's an AOSP sound. That is not an AOSP sound. I had that on my Android. Tablet. It was a Motorola tablet. Early. This is early Android. This is early Apollo Apple. Because you're saying there's no chance that's happening. It's not early Android, but it is an Android based platform. Play it again. I'll give you a hint. It's the one people are always wanting us to talk about. Now it makes me want to search the one that I think it is and see what that sounds like. Is this for points? Are we doing this for points? It's worth 35 points. No, you can't do that. It is 35. Do that to me. I'm playing a sound effect from a different. Always want us to talk about it. All right, you guys, does anyone else have answers? I have an answer. All right, let's see it. Sony. Oh, Sony's correct that it's Marquez. What did you put? I didn't know what it was. Oh, David runs away with it. I ruined the game. I ruined my precious game. I think we gotta do one more section. Is there a speed round we could do? All right, so we're. We're cutting the audio rounds as none of us know what the hell ringtones are on our phones because you all keep them on silent. You're welcome. Next one we're doing. It's all in a name. This was Ellis's idea. Where do tech companies get their names from? We're going to read you the story of how a company got its name, and you need to pick what the company is. Okay. This is a buzzer round, so get the buzzers ready. Okay. All right. And everything's worth 20 points. Remember, once you buzz in, you will have. I Forget if it's 5 or 10 seconds, but you got to get that thing out. What? Yo, Marquez, get that thing out. Keep that in. Keep that bang on me. All right. And you stop the question when we buzz, right? Yeah, I will stop reading. Yeah, yeah, perfect. All right, the first one. This company named itself because it works in Fox. Like Speed. Fox on. Correct. I read that in the book. 20 points. Oh, thought that was Firefox. Next. This company is named after its founder, who has the first name of Michael and currently sits at number 11. Oh, Marques. Wait. Oh, Jordan. I thought that was. It's not a tech company. Dell. Dell. 20 points for Marquez. I mean, for Marquez, for David. These are only tech companies. I should have thought of that. Yeah. These are all tech companies. Michael Jordan. This company's name comes from a specific story in Arabian Nights, the same story where the phrase open sesame comes from. And apparently the founder found that A, it was easy to pronounce all over the world and B, that everyone knew the story. That's why they called it that. I don't know it. As we all sit here. Blank Feast. All right. The founder, Jack Ma. Alibaba. There it is. Nice. 20 points for Marquez. That is easy to to say. Yeah. See, this company got its name from the game Go and has a similar meaning to when you say check. GoPro. No. So now David, you cannot say. I can. No, you cannot join in. Was that this is now between Marques and Andrew. I didn't know that. So I'm going to start over. The company name actually comes from the game Go. Has a similar meaning to when you say check in chess. According to the wiki of terms in the game Go, its first game, Pong, was released in 19. Atari. Atari. 20 points for Andrew. Not old enough. I wasn't either. Wow, you guys are old. The idea for this company initially came about because one of its founders forgot his USB drive at home for his work assignment and university. According to rewindandcapture.com, this company got its name because it created a virtual space where users could store files in David. Dropbox. Dropbox. 20 points. Good guess. Good one. One of the co founders named this company by deriving it from the phrase quote, searchable log of all conversation and knowledge. End quote. Replacing the previous codename line feed. That's What? Are you serious? Yeah. He backron his way into this baby. Can you say it again? Searchable log of all conversation and knowledge. Slack. Slack. 20 points for David. That's cool. Wow. David's running away with this. All right. Original name was Kadabra. Also Marquez. It's Kadabra. Kadabra. Alakazam. Google. Ah. Nope. So now this is between Andrew and David. All right. Bald. Original name was Kadabra. Kadabra also shares a name with a world famous river. Bald. Wait, Sorry. That's easy now. Bald. Don't let him distract you. World famous River. Come on, Eagle. Come on. River. What? No. Rivian. Andrew, this is all on you. I'm gonna keep reading. Nile. Rivian. No. Can I buzz now? Yeah. This is just Free fall. Go Amazon. Amazon. Bald. Why did you say bald? Because of Jeff Bezos. He doesn't know. He's not the CEO. He's not the CEO? It's Jassy. Well, now. Yeah. All right. Yeah, let's on. Yeah. Next question. Founded as Luck. He Chemical Industrial Core. In English pronounced similar to Lucky. With a sister company called Goldstar. That produced plastics. Eventually, Samsung. Nope. Who is that? Oh, that was just the wrong. Okay. Eventually, the two merged into Lucky. Gold star. Why am I dumb? Next. The company name of Blank was created by combining two words of sonus and sunny. The word sonus in Latin represents words like sound and sun. Sonos. No, I was thinking that too, actually. Oh, Sonus. Okay. The word sonus in Latin represents words like sound and sonic. The other word is sunny. Means little sun. Used in combination, Blank is supposed to represent a very small group of young people who have the energy and passion towards unlimited creations and innovative ideas that comes from their corporate history website. What? You didn't even begin. Wow. Say again? Zorushi ge. Let me. Samsung. No. Sony. So I was gonna reread it. Just. Just Sonus and Sunny. Last one worth. What am I feeling? What am I feeling? Let me see. Let me check this. So, man, last question for 50 points. 50? That's what my scorekeeper told me. Didn't put it. 50 points. Original name of this company was quote Legend and was founded in Beijing in 1984. But in the States, there were already trademarks for Legend, so they rebranded to New Legend, or as we know them, blank. The lay coming from legend and the blank coming from Latin. That should have been a hint. Chinese. The Latin word was new. New. New Legend. New Legend. New Legend. First part lay. Second part, blank. Think. No, I'm only thinking like Legion. Oh, is it that? What? This is still a buzz around, so if anyone wants to press their buzzers, Lenovo. That was Andrew. Yeah. Correct. Didn't you say that? Yeah. Okay, 50 points. That's the only thing that makes sense. But Le Novo, I wasn't sure if Novo was actually Le Novo. Latin. Okay. Legend. Gentlemen, thank you for playing a fantastic game. Unfortunately, we are all out of questions, all out of energy. I'm hungry, I'm sweaty, I'm tired. David has to get on a flight, which means we can finally announce Our winners.
