  Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer Neuharth, and today we're joined by Brody, Seth, Nate, Max, Logan, and John. This is a 10-round quiz show with questions from Meat Eater's four verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. There is a prize. Meat Eater will donate $500 to the conservation organization of the winners choosing. All right, we got a mailbag. Question today, if you have a question you want the crew to answer, send your question to trivia at the meat eater dot com. With the subject line mailbag. This is from Nate Pawatzky. He says, what'd be harder to hunt? A turkey with the nose of a deer or a deer with the eyes of a turkey? I think this is really easy.

• 2:29Speaker 05

  Yeah, turkey with a nose.

• 2:30Speaker 04

  Yeah, you wouldn't see a turkey if they had a nose like a deer.

• 2:34Speaker 06

  No, not at all. They always say if a turkey smell, you wouldn't kill them.

• 2:40Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 2:40Speaker 06

  I'm a firm believer in that.

• 2:42Speaker 04

  Phil, do you agree?

• 2:44Speaker 05

  Uh, yeah, a hundred percent. Thanks for coming to the expert.

• 2:47Speaker 04

  Yeah, uh, so turkey with the nose of a deer, that'd be hard to kill. A deer with the eyes of a turkey.

• 2:53Speaker 05

  I think that exists already, pretty much.

• 2:55Speaker 04

  Yeah, except for I think turkeys like see into the UV light range. I don't know if deer have that uh, superpower or not. Also from Nate, he says, are non Randall and Brody episodes easier? Or do I just choke against elite competition? Uh, I try to like shoot for a higher Shelby index on those episodes. So I would say they're maybe a little easier. Yeah, we want the jabronis to have a good time uh, while they're here. So maybe a little easier. Um, but it's, it's still, you know. Where is Randy today?

• 3:22Speaker 06

  I am Randall. I'm sitting in a spot.

• 3:24Speaker 04

  Yeah, I'm gonna call him.

• 3:25Speaker 05

  I passed.

• 3:26Speaker 04

  Crappy Chub.

• 3:27Speaker 05

  I passed a truck on the highways more. It looks similar to his, but I don't know if it was his or not.

• 3:32Speaker 04

  He doesn't miss trivia too often, so I, I, he's doing something.

• 3:36Speaker 05

  I know he's going to the Turnpike Troubadours concert tonight.

• 3:39Speaker 04

  Oh, that's right. Yeah. Uh, in Bonner. Yeah.

• 3:41Speaker 05

  Yeah, pre gaming.

• 3:43Speaker 04

  Uh, all right, we have some housekeeping. On last week's episode, we had a question about the panfish inspired name for the small fat head minnows that bait shops sell. The correct answer was crappie minnows. But a few folks wrote in saying that bait shops in their area call them perch minnows, specifically in Northern Michigan. Uh, now I couldn't find anything online to confirm this, but I trust our listeners. And since perch is a panfish, an emailer said that they are the small fat head minnows being sold. Then I'll call that a right answer. So if you said perch minnows, then you get that one right. Brody, you were nodding over here.

• 4:15Speaker 06

  Someone did say perch.

• 4:17Speaker 04

  Who said perch?

• 4:18Speaker 06

  Someone said in perch. Yeah.

• 4:20Speaker 04

  Oh no, I've, I've heard him call. He calls them perch minnows. I've never heard that. I, okay. I don't think it would have affected the game. Yeah. They use a lot of Emerald Chiners where he's at. Hmm. The other forty-nine states, uh, call them crappie minnows. Alright, 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.

• 4:47Steven Rinella?

  Look, I need to know what I stand to win everything. How's that? Just tend to win everything.

• 5:02Speaker 03

  Game on, suckers.

• 5:03Speaker 04

  Question one, the topic is hunting. This first great question is via Eric Zilgme, and as always, this will be multiple choice. Which of these is not a cavity nesting duck? Is it a wood duck, a common merganzer, buffalo head, or a blue-winged teal?

• 5:25Speaker 04

  Max, very quick to answer, the only player with an answer so far. Which of these is not a cavity nesting duck? So three of them are cavity nesters, one of them is not. Is it a wood duck, a common merganzer, a buffalo head, or a blue-winged teal?

• 5:41Speaker 05

  Hold tight, I need to get a marker.

• 5:43Speaker 04

  Okay. Seth has got a bad marker.

• 5:45Speaker 05

  You ever play Wingspan, Spencer?

• 5:47Speaker 04

  Um, no. Somebody gifted it to me once. I have not played it yet. Um, I, my understanding of it is that it's like kind of complex. So you need to like clear out an evening and be like, I'm gonna learn how to play Wingspan. I've heard nothing but great things.

• 6:00Speaker 05

  We should play it. It's fun.

• 6:01Speaker 04

  You're into it.

• 6:02Speaker 05

  Big, big fan. Okay. Like, my mom likes it.

• 6:04Speaker 04

  What is it exactly?

• 6:05Speaker 05

  It's just like a, it's a deck builder, it's an engine builder, bird game. It's like great art. Every card has a bird fact on it. They've got a, they've got a fish version called Finspan. They got a dragon. One called Wormspan.

• 6:16Speaker 04

  Okay. I'm into the fish one.

• 6:17Speaker 05

  Finspan is the easiest to learn. Wormspan is the hardest.

• 6:22Speaker 04

  My favorite modern board game, besides me, Dieter Trivia, uh, is Ticket to Ride. I, I think that's the perfect board game. Love Ticket to Ride.

• 6:30Speaker 05

  I, I'm, the reason I bring it up is on the cards, they have.

• 6:33Speaker 06

  Come on, Brody.

• 6:34Speaker 05

  They define the nest of the bird.

• 6:35Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 6:36Speaker 05

  And I'm trying to remember all the ducks.

• 6:38Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 6:38Speaker 05

  And their bird, their nest icon.

• 6:40Speaker 04

  Which of these is not a cavity nesting duck? Wood duck, merganser, buffelhead, teal?

• 6:46Speaker 05

  Great game, or great gift idea for the game playing birder in your life.

• 6:50Speaker 04

  There you go. Uh, Max, give us an update on, uh.

• 6:53Speaker 05

  We'll have a bunch of those.

• 6:54Speaker 06

  So, there is a point where I couldn't find any.

• 6:58Speaker 04

  Uh huh.

• 6:58Speaker 06

  And then I texted you that afternoon where I was like, oh, I found seven.

• 7:01Speaker 04

  How long were they gone for? Like a week or something, right?

• 7:04Speaker 06

  I couldn't find them. We have two ponds out back, couldn't find them on either pond. And then that afternoon, I found seven of them with the mom. And I was like, oh, down one, not too bad. Way better than zero. And then the next day, there was all eight there.

• 7:18Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 7:18Speaker 06

  And then like the last like week, week and a half, nothing. And then I walked over to this other pond, probably a mile, mile or so away. There's eight ducklings and a hen. And so I think they migrated over there.

• 7:32Speaker 04

  Right.

• 7:33Speaker 06

  And they're roughly about that same size.

• 7:35Speaker 04

  You know.

• 7:36Speaker 06

  Like they're growing up a little bit.

• 7:37Speaker 05

  This time of year, like for the last month, you see a lot of roadkill ducks. Yeah. Mm hmm. Yeah. So they might've walked over there. It's weird. There's like hotspots around Bozeman where it's like every day a new duck gets smashed by someone's car.

• 7:52Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 7:52Speaker 05

  I shouldn't laugh.

• 7:53Speaker 04

  Does everybody have an answer? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth says buffelhead, Logan, buffelhead. Max, blue winged teal. John, common merganser. Nate, common merganser. Brody, blue winged teal. The correct answer is the blue winged teal.

• 8:11Speaker 05

  Damn it. See that, Max?

• 8:13Speaker 04

  Max and Brody got that one right. Most ducks fall into three nesting categories. Upland, overwater, or cavity. Upland nesters choose sites along shallow seasonal wetlands. Examples of upland nesters are blue winged teal and mallards. Overwater nesters choose sites that are on floating mats of vegetation like cattails and bulrush. Examples of overwater nesters are redheads and canvasbacks. And cavity nesters choose sites in hollowed out trees. Other examples of cavity nesters are golden eyes and black bellied whistling ducks. Anything to add, Max, about nesting ducks?

• 8:49Speaker 06

  That's a great, um, great factors right there.

• 8:51Speaker 05

  So buffelhead will.

• 8:53Speaker 04

  They'll they'll live in a tree. Mm hmm.

• 8:55Speaker 05

  No kidding.

• 8:56Speaker 04

  And I feel like it's like it's like either a rotting tree or an abandoned raccoon net which that might be in a rotting tree as well. Yeah. Question two, the topic is conservation. The blank candle which shoots a quote sequence of glowing comets is banned in 18 states because of its tendency for starting fires.

• 9:18Speaker 06

  That was fascinating.

• 9:19Speaker 05

  Having too much fun.

• 9:21Speaker 04

  Eighteen states don't like you having all that fun.

• 9:23Speaker 05

  Dude, I thought I could name them.

• 9:24Speaker 04

  Candle.

• 9:25Speaker 05

  California. Soon to be fourth of July. Washington, New York.

• 9:29Speaker 04

  The blank candle which shoots a sequence of glowing comets is banned in 18 states because of its tendency for starting fires. We used to escalate our bottle rocket fights by employing these.

• 9:41Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah. Heavy artillery, baby.

• 9:44Speaker 04

  Yeah, we used to have fights with these. Okay, the room is gonna do well. They all look confident. Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. The whole room says Roman. The whole room got it right. It is the Roman candle. Roman candles are heavy tubes that discharge a series of balls of fire and sparks into the air. It's the firework that started the 2016 Table Rock fire in Idaho and 2020 Traverse fire in Utah. Massachusetts has the strictest firework laws in the country as the only state that completely bans the sale, possession, and private use of all consumer fireworks. This is the week the fire truck, uh, or the firework, uh, boost will start showing up.

• 10:27Speaker 05

  Oh, they're they're already here.

• 10:29Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah. What what's a firework boost? Oh, the booth. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Mm hmm. They move in. Question three, the topic is cooking. This next great question is via William Mayer. This pest which burrows into the flesh of living animals was discovered in South Texas in June 2026.

• 10:49Speaker 06

  Just listen to the podcast.

• 10:51Speaker 04

  Mmm.

• 10:53Speaker 04

  Hint, uh, you don't have to be that specific. If you thought, uh, the answer was like, a dragonfly, you could put a dragonfly. You don't have to put XX dragonfly, whatever a specific dragonfly would be. This pest, which burrows into the flesh of living animals, was discovered in South Texas in June 2026. And we will look at a picture after this of what that pest does. It's pretty disgusting. We should do a meat eater experiment where we put one of these things in Yanis's arm. Uh, it said that they will, uh, you know, be attracted to humans as well. So they, they might take Tiani's arm.

• 11:36Speaker 04

  Again, we're going to look at a photo. If you don't want to see a deer that's all messed up from this pest, then maybe look away after the flavor text is read. This pest, which burrows into the flesh of living animals.

• 11:48Speaker 05

  Nope.

• 11:48Speaker 04

  Was discovered in South Texas, June 2026.

• 11:54Speaker 04

  Nate, you have this one right?

• 11:55Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah.

• 11:55Speaker 04

  Okay. Brody, do you, Brody seems to have it right.

• 11:59Speaker 05

  Double right.

• 12:00Speaker 04

  Double right. Okay. You're going very specific.

• 12:02Speaker 05

  Yep.

• 12:07Speaker 04

  Max, do you have this one right?

• 12:10Speaker 06

  Uh, no, but I just listened to the podcast like Tuesday or Wednesday.

• 12:14Speaker 04

  John, do you have this one right?

• 12:16Speaker 06

  I do not.

• 12:16Speaker 05

  What podcast? Don't worry about it.

• 12:19Speaker 06

  Meat eater podcast.

• 12:21Speaker 04

  Your podcast.

• 12:21Speaker 05

  I didn't listen to that.

• 12:23Speaker 04

  A lot of podcasts. John was telling me yesterday was our hottest day at the store all year or ever?

• 12:31Speaker 06

  Just year to date.

• 12:31Speaker 04

  Year to date. Okay. Why? What's been flying out the door? What, what do people like right now?

• 12:36Speaker 06

  Well, logo wear is flying out the door. Of course, we're in tourist season now in Bozeman. And a real hot seller, which is one that we've had a major demand for, for several years now, the gnome packing unicorn t-shirt.

• 12:48Speaker 04

  Oh.

• 12:48Speaker 06

  That's finally back.

• 12:49Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 12:50Speaker 06

  We've, we've had, it had to have been just about every day without fail. Somebody asks about that t-shirt.

• 12:56Speaker 05

  What about this one?

• 12:58Speaker 06

  I like that one. That's a really good one too. Yep. We have that.

• 13:01Speaker 05

  Is that one flying off the shelves? Yeah, this one's sick.

• 13:04Speaker 06

  That one's really attractive to like the southern folks.

• 13:06Speaker 04

  You guys spend a little less time selling t-shirts, some more time working on selling my bear rug. That's out in the common area right now. So everybody's, that's the first thing they see when they walk in the store now. A lot of foot traffic. Go in there, talk to John, ask him about maybe a trivia question the upcoming week. Maybe he'll tell you, maybe not. Is everybody ready?

• 13:24Speaker 06

  Yeah, I'm not gonna get it.

• 13:25Speaker 05

  Not really, but whatever.

• 13:26Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth and Logan say botfly. Maxwell says blank fly. John says tick. Nate says new world screw worm. Brody says screw worm. They got it. Correct answer is the screw worm.

• 13:43Speaker 05

  You're good.

• 13:43Speaker 04

  The screw worm was found inside a three week old calf and two more cases regarding cattle and dogs followed shortly thereafter. Screw worms, which are the maggot form of a fly, typically begin their life in an open wound before drilling into the animal's flesh. The parasite isn't a food safety issue, but it's largely managed by the USDA because it has potential to devastate the food we eat. A 2016 screw worm outbreak in Florida killed nearly 20% of their endangered key deer population. Here is a picture of one of those key deer. Oh my god. It commonly infects in their head because it, they go to an open wound. So if it's the rut

• 14:25Speaker 04

  and a buck got messed up by another buck, that creates a natural spot for the screw worms to lay their eggs.

• 14:30Speaker 06

  Is that deer still alive? Like in that photo?

• 14:33Speaker 05

  Looks like it.

• 14:34Speaker 04

  Yeah. That deer appears to be alive. If you find pictures of deer with screw worms, a lot of times it's in their head or maybe it's like, you know, in their back ham where they got caught by another buck. Really disgusting thing. I think they used to have them. We eradicated them in like the 60s, but they still show up sometimes. The latest case was just in June in Texas. Hmm. Question four, the topic is fishing. John Gustafson and Max Goldman sabotage each other's gear by cutting fishing nets and severing anchor lines in the sequel to this 1993 movie.

• 15:14Speaker 04

  You could tell me, uh, the sequel or just the regular, um, you know, number one that I'm asking.

• 15:19Speaker 06

  Brody's smiling.

• 15:20Speaker 04

  John Gustafson.

• 15:22Speaker 05

  I didn't have it, then I got it.

• 15:23Speaker 04

  And Max Goldman sabotage each other's gear.

• 15:28Speaker 05

  About a particular joke that it cannot be repeated on.

• 15:31Speaker 04

  By cutting fishing nets and severing anchor lines in the sequel to this 1993 movie.

• 15:38Speaker 05

  I caught catfish on her the other day.

• 15:40Speaker 04

  You did? Okay.

• 15:42Speaker 05

  Twenty pounds.

• 15:44Speaker 04

  Twenty pounds?

• 15:45Speaker 05

  Yeah, twenty pound catfish.

• 15:46Speaker 04

  In Montana?

• 15:47Speaker 05

  No, it was on, is, uh, on Huron.

• 15:49Speaker 06

  The thing was a giant.

• 15:51Speaker 04

  Well, you, you certainly weren't targeting cats. What did like?

• 15:53Speaker 05

  No.

• 15:54Speaker 04

  Plug or a jig or what?

• 15:55Speaker 05

  Uh, just a jig with a crawler on it.

• 15:58Speaker 04

  Do they have flatheads in Huron? Or was it a?

• 16:01Speaker 05

  They do. It was a channel, but they.

• 16:03Speaker 04

  That is a whopper channel.

• 16:05Speaker 05

  That's a big channel.

• 16:05Speaker 04

  That's like in the 99th percentile of channel catfish in the world.

• 16:10Speaker 05

  I'll get a picture up.

• 16:11Speaker 04

  Again, question for the topic is fishing. John Gustafson and Max Goldman sabotage each other's gear by cutting fishing nets and severing anchor lines in the sequel to this 1993 movie.

• 16:22Speaker 05

  Did that thing end up in the fryer? No, I threw him back.

• 16:25Speaker 04

  That is a whopper.

• 16:27Speaker 05

  You can, uh, Slack that to me, Seth, if we want to show it on the show.

• 16:30Speaker 04

  The channel. Well done.

• 16:34Speaker 05

  Incoming, Phil. Perfect.

• 16:38Speaker 04

  Seth, you have this one right?

• 16:39Speaker 05

  I've not. It's like the perfect question. I will never fishing and movies before I was born.

• 16:44Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 16:45Speaker 05

  Spencer was like, what's a question Brody would get right? This one.

• 16:50Speaker 04

  You do not have this one right.

• 16:51Speaker 05

  Absolutely not.

• 16:52Speaker 04

  Do you have a fishing movie down?

• 16:53Speaker 05

  No, it's like a, it's like a ocean movie.

• 16:55Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 16:56Speaker 05

  That ain't it.

• 16:57Speaker 04

  Could be.

• 16:57Speaker 05

  Cool. Great.

• 17:00Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 17:02Speaker 05

  Did you put Captain?

• 17:04Speaker 04

  Ron down? Oh, okay. Max, are you ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth says grumpier old men, Logan, without an answer. Max says rivers run through it. John, without an answer. Nate says Waterworld, Brody, grumpy old men. The correct answer is grumpy old men. The sequel is grumpier old men.

• 17:29Speaker 05

  Yeah, wait, isn't that what you're asking?

• 17:32Speaker 04

  We'll take your answer. Grumpy old men and grumpier old men are set in Wabashaw, Minnesota, a small town on the Mississippi River southeast of Minneapolis. The film follows neighbors John and Max, who have a relationship that fluctuates between friendly and feuding. They also share a love of fishing, which further complicates matters. In this scene, they are catfishing on the wedding day of John's daughter and Max's son. Take it away, Phil. You're right, it's not an important day. Nah, no reason to be here. Hang on.

• 18:08Speaker 06

  Drop the anchor, Max. You cut the anchor, you putz. You cut the net, too, you dickhead.

• 18:17Speaker 04

  I've never seen this.

• 18:19Speaker 05

  Oh, it's so funny.

• 18:20Speaker 04

  As a North Dakotan, you'd love this, Max.

• 18:22Speaker 06

  Yeah, I bet. Put your gloves on, will ya? I'll show ya how to do it. Here's the way you do it.

• 18:29Speaker 04

  Here, now watch. Come and work it, man.

• 18:34Speaker 04

  And this is the legendary fish Catfish Hunter. Italy.

• 18:41Steven Rinella?

  Holy moly, my god, look at this thing. Holy moly. Okay, get his tail. I got his tail.

• 18:57Speaker 04

  Catfish Hunter, that was a flathead. Seth's Catfish Hunter was a channel cat. Look at that thing.

• 19:03Speaker 04

  Channel cats don't get much bigger than that set. That is enormous for Channel Catfish.

• 19:08Speaker 06

  Did you think that was a big mark, like a walleye?

• 19:10Speaker 05

  Well, when it first hit, I was like, oh, that's a good fish. And then I realized, then I quickly realized that it was not a walleye.

• 19:16Speaker 04

  What did you think it was until you saw it was, uh, did you think maybe like a drum?

• 19:20Speaker 05

  For a second, I thought I had like foul hooked a sturgeon or something. Cause I know that those are in there.

• 19:25Speaker 04

  Good for you. Uh, question five, the topic is gear. Motor Trend Magazine says that your vehicle's blank case is quote, "The single most important part of four-wheel drive."

• 19:43Speaker 05

  Dude, I just had some vehicle issues yesterday.

• 19:46Speaker 04

  Really? With this thing?

• 19:47Speaker 05

  No.

• 19:48Speaker 04

  No, okay.

• 19:48Speaker 05

  Brakes.

• 19:49Speaker 04

  Okay. Could be worse than it could be this thing. Motor Trend Magazine.

• 19:53Speaker 05

  Pretty bad.

• 19:53Speaker 04

  Says that your vehicle's blank case is quote, "The single most important part of four-wheel drive."

• 20:01Speaker 06

  I've heard about this a lot, but have I done anything to it? Do I maintain it? No.

• 20:07Speaker 06

  But, uh, knowing the single most important part, I hope.

• 20:10Speaker 04

  Now he's getting this wrong. He's gonna change.

• 20:12Speaker 05

  You don't know this?

• 20:13Speaker 06

  He's kind of unsure, it looks like.

• 20:15Speaker 04

  Motor Trend Magazine says that your vehicle's blank case is the single most important part of four-wheel drive. Nate and Brody disagree.

• 20:27Speaker 05

  Yeah, I just don't know if I'd say this is the most important.

• 20:31Speaker 06

  It's the most important part.

• 20:33Speaker 04

  I mean, if you like, if you take away your wheels.

• 20:35Speaker 05

  Yeah. And the steering wheel and gas.

• 20:40Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 20:41Speaker 06

  I think so.

• 20:41Speaker 04

  Quick answers in the room. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth and Logan and Maxwell and John and Nate say transfer. Brody says differential. The correct answer is the transfer case.

• 20:54Speaker 06

  How does that feel, Brody?

• 20:56Speaker 05

  It feels like I got it wrong.

• 20:57Speaker 04

  A transfer case.

• 20:58Speaker 05

  How many have you gotten wrong?

• 21:00Speaker 06

  I've only gotten a couple, but.

• 21:01Speaker 04

  We'll get a scoreboard update here shortly.

• 21:03Speaker 05

  Not the ones that matter.

• 21:06Speaker 04

  A transfer case is what distributes power from the transmission to both the front and rear axles to give you four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. They can break due to a lack of fluid, improper use of four-wheel drive, or internal wear over time. If you need to replace one, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000. Has anybody ever had transfer case problems? Yeah.

• 21:31Speaker 05

  No, but a lot of other problems.

• 21:32Speaker 04

  Yeah, you feel like you're getting immediate feedback if you're like abusing your four wheel drive, you know, if you like go from really muddy to taking a turn on dry.

• 21:41Speaker 05

  Oh, you know what? I did have transfer case problems.

• 21:43Speaker 04

  You did?

• 21:43Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 21:44Speaker 04

  What was the issue?

• 21:44Speaker 05

  An eight, eighty-eight Chevy Scottsdale in college and we, we got a three-foot snowstorm.

• 21:50Speaker 04

  Uh huh.

• 21:51Speaker 05

  In Pennsylvania and we went up on the, on the hill to Baja around.

• 21:55Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 21:55Speaker 05

  And I, we, as soon as I pulled off the highway onto the road, I went to kick it in four-wheel drive, wouldn't do it.

• 22:01Speaker 04

  You, that's the time you want your transfer case working.

• 22:04Speaker 05

  Pulled off the road, immediately got stuck because I couldn't get in four-wheel drive, but transfer case went out, yeah.

• 22:10Speaker 04

  All right, we are halfway through our game of trivia. Phil, give us a scoreboard update.

• 22:15Speaker 05

  Just a two-point spread here between all of our players. Uh, back of the pack, we've got Logan and John, two points. Seth, Nate, and Max have three. Unfortunately, Brody could not transfer his momentum to continuing his perfect game because he has four points now.

• 22:32Speaker 04

  Well, Phil's been waiting to use that one a long time.

• 22:35Speaker 05

  I'm just waiting for the transfer to be the right answer to your question.

• 22:40Speaker 04

  I travel quite a bit and when I'm home, it's very easy to stay on a rigid food routine and eat the right kinds of food at the right time. But when you're on the road, it's hard to stay in your routine and like diet can really start to fall apart. I've seen it and that's why I like Athletic Greens.

• 24:27Steven Rinella?

  Hey, I'm Niall Rogers, producer, songwriter, guitarist and co-founder of the group Sheik. A great song has a way of defining a moment, a moment of joy, heartbreak, or anything in between.

• 24:43Steven Rinella?

  This fall, I'll be driving across the country, dropping in on some of the coolest, most fascinating artists working today. We'll go deep into their lives and careers and hear what it was like before the moment that made them from hit makers like Miguel. That last year, finishing that record was the hardest experience of my life, regardless of how everyone else buys into this. I believe in this and I'm gonna push. To rising stars like Alex Warren. You know, a song is a story and the verse is setting the scene. And for me, at least it's allowing me to be personal and vulnerable with the audience, whether it's about my wife and I'm being vulnerable about her or it's about, you know, my parents and I'm being vulnerable to them.

• 25:28Steven Rinella?

  And it's almost like a cinematic piece in a way where each song tells that beautiful story. It's gonna be one hell of a trip. Experience before the moment. A Lincoln original series on the iHeart radio app, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

• 25:46Speaker 04

  Question six, the topic is hunting. This is our listener question of the week, which was won by Eric Keeler for sending this great question. Eric is going to get a $150 first light gift card. If you want a chance to win the listener question of the week, then send your question to trivia at the meat eater.com. This gunmaker introduced the buckmark symbol in 1978, which features a mule deer silhouette that they call, quote, "the outdoor industry's most iconic logo."

• 26:20Speaker 04

  We have six blank whiteboards in the room. This gunmaker introduced the Buckmark symbol in 1978, which features a mule deer silhouette that they call the outdoor industry's most iconic logo.

• 26:36Speaker 06

  That's a bold statement.

• 26:37Speaker 04

  Well, I mean, you can say anything you want about your own brand. I'm not even, I don't know if I'd even disagree. Maybe not the most iconic, but one of them. Still six blank whiteboards. This gunmaker introduced the Buckmark symbol in 1978, which features a mule deer silhouette that they call the outdoor industry's most iconic logo.

• 27:03Speaker 04

  Max, with you being in North-

• 27:04Speaker 06

  What do you say mule deer silhouette?

• 27:07Speaker 04

  I'm not gonna be any, they, they, they call it a mule deer silhouette. That's what they, that's what they identified as.

• 27:14Speaker 06

  I'm gonna leave my hand.

• 27:16Speaker 04

  Max, you being in North Dakota, your, your wife being a Minnesotan, you guys would love Grumpy Old Man.

• 27:21Speaker 06

  I know. I'll probably watch it tonight.

• 27:23Speaker 04

  They're even, there's, one of them's even named after you.

• 27:25Speaker 06

  I know.

• 27:26Speaker 04

  Maybe you're named after, uh, Max Gustafson.

• 27:30Speaker 05

  So you haven't seen those, either of those movies?

• 27:31Speaker 06

  I would be lying if I told you I have.

• 27:33Speaker 05

  You gotta watch it. They're the best movies ever. The only thing that's better than that is Tombstone.

• 27:39Speaker 04

  It's a very earnest statement from Seth. This gunmaker introduced the Buckmark symbol in 1978, which features a mule deer silhouette that they call the outdoor industry's most iconic logo. Nate, do you have this one right?

• 28:00Speaker 05

  No, no, just guess.

• 28:02Speaker 04

  John, do you have this one right? I think so. He does, okay.

• 28:06Speaker 05

  Yeah, I think, I think I, I think I got it. I think I pulled it out, yeah.

• 28:10Speaker 04

  The Pennsylvania boys, uh, they, they like their answers.

• 28:13Speaker 05

  Interesting.

• 28:15Speaker 05

  What about the other PA boy?

• 28:17Speaker 04

  What? Who's the first one to put his board down?

• 28:21Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 28:22Speaker 06

  No, I mean, yeah, doesn't matter.

• 28:26Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth says Browning, Logan, Ruger, Maxwell. PA boys know their guns, man. That's right. John, Browning.

• 28:36Speaker 05

  Browning buckmaster.

• 28:37Speaker 04

  Nate, Remington, Brody, Browning. The PA boys got it. The correct answer is Browning. Browning had some internal disagreement about the logo when its marketing department created it in 1977. Most notably, people thought it should feature a whitetail instead of a mule deer. But its creators said the muley showed the gun's western origins as a Utah brand and set it apart from New England competitors. The logo proved to be a success and has become one of the most popular tattoos among hunters. I feel like if you know a hunter who has a tattoo, there's like a 10% chance this is a little.

• 29:17Speaker 05

  I never knew that was a deer.

• 29:19Speaker 04

  You didn't know that was a deer? Yeah, that they call it their muley silhouette.

• 29:24Speaker 06

  I should have had that one.

• 29:25Speaker 05

  That's a great question.

• 29:27Speaker 04

  We're on to question seven. The topic is public lands. Bar Harbor, Maine calls itself, quote, "The gateway to blank National Park."

• 29:38Speaker 05

  Bar Harbor.

• 29:41Speaker 05

  Almost didn't recognize it when you said Bar Harbor.

• 29:45Speaker 04

  Phil, give us your best New England.

• 29:47Speaker 05

  I don't have a good boss. Bar Harbor.

• 29:51Speaker 04

  Bar Harbor, Maine calls itself the gateway to blank National Park.

• 29:56Speaker 05

  Oh, I've been there. I've been there many times.

• 29:58Speaker 04

  Really?

• 29:59Speaker 05

  Yep.

• 30:00Speaker 04

  Many a times. To Bar Harbor.

• 30:02Speaker 05

  Bar Harbor, yep.

• 30:03Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 30:04Speaker 05

  Good lobster rolls there. Yep.

• 30:06Speaker 04

  I bet. I would love to go there and have a lobster roll.

• 30:12Speaker 04

  Brody very quickly came up with an answer, or other five players. Yeah, this place has been on my list of places to go. I've never been. Hmm, now you moved so far away from it. Yep. Yeah. Bar Harbor calls itself the gateway to blank National Park.

• 30:30Speaker 05

  When I was, when I decided I was gonna move out of Pennsylvania, I was split between Montana and Maine.

• 30:36Speaker 04

  Hmm.

• 30:38Speaker 05

  Both good choices.

• 30:39Speaker 04

  You'd be a moose hunting machine.

• 30:40Speaker 05

  Dude, I love Mainers. They're good. Maine is a great state.

• 30:46Speaker 05

  It's fantastic. Dude.

• 30:49Speaker 04

  Nate, do you have this one right? No, I don't think so.

• 30:53Speaker 04

  It gave Brody a chuckle.

• 30:54Speaker 05

  This is one of those deals where when I hear it, I'm gonna, yeah, exactly mad about it.

• 30:58Speaker 04

  And you think you've been to this National Park or you've just been to Bahaba?

• 31:01Speaker 05

  I don't know if I've been to the National Park.

• 31:03Speaker 04

  Okay. Ah, pa, pa, pa, pa, pa.

• 31:08Speaker 04

  Maxwell trying to come up with a National Park. Go down a letter. Bar Harbor, Maine calls itself the gateway to blank National Park.

• 31:20Speaker 04

  Walk us through your thinking process down there, Max.

• 31:23Speaker 06

  There's not much to it. I, I know of a, I don't, I just don't know where this is.

• 31:29Speaker 04

  Hmm.

• 31:29Speaker 06

  Exactly.

• 31:33Speaker 05

  Max never even bothers to try hiding his board.

• 31:37Speaker 06

  Uh, cause I don't even know if it's gonna be right.

• 31:39Speaker 04

  When he got the Randall seat today.

• 31:41Speaker 06

  I know.

• 31:41Speaker 04

  Which is kind of a coveted spot in the studio.

• 31:46Speaker 04

  Does Randall just get here 10 minutes early and a steak is claimed? I think he does do that, yeah. And, uh, sometimes someone who's not real familiar with the show will take that spot and

• 31:56Speaker 04

  kind of give them a look.

• 31:57Speaker 06

  I think this is National Park.

• 31:58Speaker 04

  And then reluctantly take a different spot. Max, are you ready? Seth, are you ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth says Acadia. Hmm. Logan, Appalachian, Maxwell.

• 32:11Speaker 06

  Tried to spell Acadia.

• 32:13Speaker 04

  John Acadia.

• 32:14Speaker 06

  That is not Acadia. That is acid dick up.

• 32:19Speaker 04

  Let's see that whiteboard, don't change it. Acidica.

• 32:27Speaker 04

  Nate says Centennial, Brody, Acadia. The correct answer is Acadia.

• 32:33Speaker 06

  I'm doing it myself.

• 32:34Speaker 04

  A C A D I A.

• 32:36Speaker 06

  There's a lot of distractions there, I'm a horrible speller.

• 32:39Speaker 04

  With over four million visitors each year, Acadia is the seventh most visited national park in America, ranking between Rocky Mountain and Grand Teton. It is home to Cadillac Mountain, which is the tallest mountain on the Atlantic coast of the United States. Acadia was the first national park created from private lands gifted to the public.

• 33:00Speaker 05

  I'm not gonna lie, I heard Max go AC, and I'm like, ah! I said the highest mountain on the Atlantic coast.

• 33:07Speaker 06

  Brody, I said this last game.

• 33:09Speaker 04

  What's your question?

• 33:09Speaker 05

  What does that mean, highest mountain on the Atlantic coast?

• 33:12Speaker 04

  I assume that like, you can, you know, see the water, like, throw a rock and hit the water from it. Uh, the highest mountain on the Atlantic coast of the United States, so that's not counting our friends in Canada.

• 33:23Speaker 06

  Brody, I said this last game.

• 33:24Speaker 05

  One of those NFL stats.

• 33:25Speaker 06

  I said this last game, I don't play to win, I play to have fun.

• 33:29Speaker 05

  Good.

• 33:30Speaker 04

  Are you having fun?

• 33:30Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 33:31Speaker 04

  Okay, good.

• 33:31Speaker 06

  Always.

• 33:32Speaker 04

  Question eight, the topic is fishing, this next great question is via Tim Allen.

• 33:37Speaker 05

  Ooh! That was a half-assed one, I'm sorry.

• 33:41Speaker 04

  I should've warned you, now I just expected. Uh, Tim is a prolific trivia question writer in her, uh, so Phil, you better work on that.

• 33:48Speaker 05

  Oh, what was that? What's going on?

• 33:50Speaker 04

  Oh, we got a dive bar situation in here. The neon light is flickering. Alright, topic is fishing.

• 33:55Speaker 06

  Come on, Tim.

• 33:56Speaker 04

  This word, which is defined as, quote, "The way a rod flexes under a load can be described as fast, medium, or slow."

• 34:09Speaker 04

  This word, which is defined as "The way a rod flexes under a load can be described as fast, medium, or slow."

• 34:20Speaker 04

  The PA boys again, sharing that brain. They all look confident. The non-PA suckers, not so much.

• 34:29Speaker 05

  Nope.

• 34:33Speaker 04

  Come on Max, you're an angler.

• 34:35Speaker 06

  I know, I think I got it, but.

• 34:37Speaker 04

  Oh, okay. We know Nate's not gonna get it. Mm-hmm.

• 34:40Speaker 05

  I'm trying to lean into my physics background.

• 34:44Speaker 04

  This word, which is defined as the way a rod flexes under a load, can be described as fast, medium, or slow.

• 34:56Speaker 04

  Hmm. Logan, do you have this one right?

• 34:58Speaker 05

  I think so. This is tripping me up a bit.

• 35:00Speaker 04

  Oh. Yeah. Seth is questioning his answer.

• 35:07Speaker 06

  Ah, the silence kills me.

• 35:09Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 35:10Speaker 05

  Give me one sec.

• 35:13Speaker 04

  Nate's got a noodle on this. What's your physics background?

• 35:17Speaker 05

  Uh, high school physics class.

• 35:20Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 35:20Speaker 06

  Ten years ago?

• 35:22Speaker 04

  I think, under that definition, everybody has a physics background.

• 35:27Speaker 05

  I was hoping you wouldn't ask.

• 35:31Speaker 05

  I'm gonna change it.

• 35:32Speaker 04

  Okay, Seth making a last second.

• 35:34Speaker 06

  Sticking with my gut.

• 35:35Speaker 04

  Change. Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth crossed out power and went with action. Logan, action. Maxwell, action. John, action. Nate, tensile. Brody, action. The correct answer is action. The room did well. Good on you Seth for making that last second change.

• 35:56Speaker 06

  Did you see my border?

• 35:58Speaker 05

  The mediums, the medium messed me up because you have like a medium, like, isn't it like power?

• 36:02Speaker 04

  Powers like heavy, light, ultralight.

• 36:05Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 36:05Speaker 06

  Yeah, medium fast.

• 36:07Speaker 04

  I think it's sometimes instead of medium, you'll see moderate, uh, so fast, moderate, medium, slow. A fast action rod will flex at the tip of the rod before it reaches its backbone, while a slow action rod bends all the way down towards your fishing reel. Fast action rods are more popular for jig fishing where you're making contact with the bottom and creating slack in the line. Slow action rods are best for when you're using treble hooks, live bait, or light line. Here's a diagram showing you how the different rods will bend based on if it's a fast action or moderate action, slow action. Uh, A there, that's an extra fast action, so there, you're only getting some little bit of bend at the end of your rod. Uh, call that a broomstick.

• 36:50Speaker 04

  Broomstick, mm-hmm, or it's like D, D that you're looking at a moderate action, that would be a noodle.

• 36:54Speaker 06

  What would ugly stick be?

• 36:56Speaker 04

  Well, I mean, I think they still span.

• 36:58Speaker 05

  Yeah, they have all different.

• 37:00Speaker 04

  Yeah, they would have fast, slow, medium.

• 37:02Speaker 06

  When I think of ugly stick, I think of this.

• 37:06Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah. They don't break. You can bend them. The old ads, the old commercial of putting it in the dishwasher. Old muscle up, holding the rods.

• 37:14Speaker 04

  Yeah, John's referring to a wife trying to not get her husband to go fishing, so he shoves the, she shoves the ugly stick down the garbage disposal.

• 37:22Speaker 05

  I got a bunch of those ugly sticks in my quiver, man. Those boys can't break them.

• 37:26Speaker 04

  All right, Phil, two questions left. Give us a scoreboard update.

• 37:32Speaker 05

  Spreads a little more wide this time around. We've got Logan and Nate tied up now with three points. Max and John have five, but it's close up top. Seth's got six, Bertie has seven.

• 37:44Speaker 04

  Question nine. The topic is natural history. Mount, Mount Vesuvius, which National Geographic calls the world's most dangerous volcano, is located in this country.

• 37:58Speaker 05

  Been there.

• 37:59Speaker 04

  Oh, okay. There's a hint if you know Nate's travels. Where's Nate been? Mount Vesuvius.

• 38:04Speaker 05

  I'll give you a better hint. I lived there.

• 38:07Speaker 04

  Okay, that is a hefty hint.

• 38:08Speaker 05

  Oh, God, where are their military bases, dude?

• 38:11Speaker 04

  Mount Vesuvius, which National Geographic calls, quote, "The world's most dangerous volcano", is located in this country.

• 38:22Speaker 05

  I'm pulling for you, Seth.

• 38:24Speaker 04

  Is it, is it an island?

• 38:26Speaker 05

  I can't in good conscience say anymore.

• 38:28Speaker 04

  Where has Nate lived? How many countries have you lived in, Nate?

• 38:33Speaker 05

  I think just two.

• 38:35Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 38:37Speaker 05

  I, I guess your definition of lived is what would define that.

• 38:40Speaker 04

  Okay. I don't know, like sleep in a place for a month consecutively?

• 38:44Speaker 05

  Oh, five?

• 38:46Speaker 04

  Okay. Five countries Nate's lived in.

• 38:51Speaker 04

  Mount Vesuvius, which National Geographic calls the world's most dangerous volcano, is located in this country. If Brody can get this one right.

• 39:03Speaker 05

  Six, sorry.

• 39:04Speaker 04

  Seth gets it wrong, that will wrap up the victory for Brody with one question to go.

• 39:11Speaker 04

  Brody gets it wrong and Seth gets it right, we'll be tied going into question 10.

• 39:15Speaker 05

  Come on Seth, we're pulling for you.

• 39:18Speaker 05

  I don't know how to spell it.

• 39:20Speaker 04

  It's okay.

• 39:20Speaker 05

  I don't think you're right.

• 39:23Speaker 04

  Okay, another hint.

• 39:27Speaker 04

  Have you been to the actual Mount?

• 39:28Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 39:29Speaker 04

  Vesuvius?

• 39:29Speaker 05

  Yeah, it's super cool.

• 39:30Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 39:34Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready? Brody, do you have this one right? It took you a minute.

• 39:38Speaker 05

  Man, we'll find out.

• 39:40Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 39:42Speaker 04

  John?

• 39:44Speaker 06

  Not doing good over here.

• 39:45Speaker 04

  Okay, do you have a country written down?

• 39:47Speaker 06

  I'll write a country down.

• 39:49Speaker 04

  Okay, then we're gonna flip them over.

• 39:52Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth says, what's that say Seth?

• 39:57Speaker 06

  I was gonna say.

• 39:58Speaker 04

  Logan, Italy. Maxwell. I was torn between the two. John. Japan. Nate. Italy. Brody. Greece. The correct answer is Italy. Damn.

• 40:10Speaker 05

  I was.

  Located in southern Italy, Mount Vesuvius is the only volcano on Europe's mainland that's erupted in the last 100 years. Its most famous event was in 79 AD when it obliterated Pompeii, killing thousands in the area. It's estimated that eruption released 100,000 times the thermal energy of an atomic bomb. It pumped out so much sulfur dioxide and ash into the atmosphere that it temporarily altered global climates. And scientists say that based on tree ring growth, regional temperatures were actually cooler for a few years afterwards. What was your experience on Mount Vesuvius?

• 40:48Speaker 05

  We just, I mean, I was like four. We hiked up there. I remember, it was cool. There's like no rules to speak of, so you just go up there and look in the crater. It's sick.

• 40:56Speaker 04

  Oh, you went like to the top?

• 40:57Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, it's, yeah, it's, it's great. You should, if you find yourself in southern Italy, you should go. You remember things from when you were four? Do I remember things from when I was two and a half? Whoa. And not even fake memories. We, this is a whole debate in my head. This is a whole. We're not gonna go down that.

• 41:10Speaker 04

  Yeah. Yeah, I think part of the danger of Mount Vesuvius is that there's like 3 million people who live, you know, within what would be an eruption zone.

• 41:17Speaker 06

  How long did you live in Italy?

• 41:19Speaker 05

  Two and a half years.

• 41:19Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 41:20Speaker 04

  All right, here's a correct answer review so far. One was Blue Winged Teal, two, Roman Candle, three, Screwworm, four, Grumpy Old Man, five, Transfer Case, six, Browning, seven, Acadia National Park, eight, Action, nine, Italy. Phil, scoreboard update.

• 41:39Speaker 05

  Uh, no change amongst the competitive players here, but we got Logan and Nate with four points now.

• 41:45Speaker 04

  Question 10, the topic is conservation. South Carolina labels this six-letter plant as a severe environmental threat, describing it as having, quote, "woody stems, branched growth, and often large size."

• 42:04Speaker 05

  Hmm.

• 42:06Speaker 05

  Six?

• 42:07Speaker 04

  Six letters. South Carolina labels this six-letter plant as a severe environmental threat, describing it as having woody stems, branched growth, and often large size. Brody, do you like your answer?

• 42:25Speaker 04

  I had a six-letter answer. Okay, if he gets it right, he will have won the game. If he gets it wrong, and Seth gets it right, we will go to overtime. And I think we are on an overtime drought here at Media Trivia. It's been a minute.

• 42:39Speaker 05

  Let me think.

• 42:40Speaker 04

  Okay, I'm gonna give Seth a minute. He's drawn his hangman characters. Now he's just gotta find a six-letter plant that South Carolina labels as a severe environmental threat, describing it as having woody stems, branched growth, and often large size. Brody, the only player with an answer so far.

• 43:05Speaker 04

  Nate, do you like your answer?

• 43:06Speaker 05

  No, I thought I had it, but it was only five letters, so I've changed the spelling and we'll see what happens.

• 43:14Speaker 05

  What do they mean by large size?

• 43:17Speaker 04

  I don't know, whatever South Carolina would describe as being often large size.

• 43:23Speaker 04

  Woody stems, branched growth, and often large size.

• 43:29Speaker 04

  Phil, you had a little chuckle over there.

• 43:31Speaker 05

  Oh, I just thought it was funny that Nate said he would change the spelling, or as if that might make it correct. You never know.

• 43:40Speaker 04

  Max had a seven-letter word over there. Did you spell the six-letter word wrong by chance?

• 43:45Speaker 06

  Hi, hi, Chance.

• 43:47Speaker 04

  Hi, Chance, okay.

• 43:48Speaker 06

  I still get seven.

• 43:51Speaker 04

  Seth still has a blank whiteboard.

• 43:56Speaker 04

  Brody may have the authoritative victory.

• 43:58Speaker 06

  I mean, I'm sticking with this.

• 44:02Speaker 05

  I probably know it.

• 44:04Speaker 04

  South Carolina labels this six-letter plant as a severe environmental threat, describing it as having woody stems, branched growth, and often large size. Is everybody ready?

• 44:15Speaker 05

  Yeah, do it.

• 44:16Speaker 04

  Seth, you give up? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Seth and Logan without an answer. Maxwell says mangrove. John without an answer. Nate says cudzu. Brody says bamboo. Brody, got it! The correct answer is bamboo.

• 44:33Speaker 05

  Nice.

• 44:34Speaker 04

  Clemson University calls bamboo, quote, "one of the most difficult to control plants," end quote, "a homeowner's worst nightmare. Once established, the invasive plant will take over landscapes, stream banks, and woodlands. Clemson says you must be patient while treating bamboo as the plant requires an intensive control program over several years." Does anybody have any experience with bamboo? No.

• 45:00Speaker 05

  My grandparents used to have a patch of it on the edge of their property.

• 45:03Speaker 04

  Oh, they kept it controlled?

• 45:04Speaker 05

  Um, well, it was, it was on the neighbors, and they, yeah, would like come over. Yeah, they would cut it down all the time. I think the neighbor would put some like diesel fuel on it, cut it and put diesel fuel on it.

• 45:16Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 45:17Speaker 05

  Make it which you know, probably not environmentally friendly.

• 45:20Speaker 04

  When I was going, when I was going through my orchard project, I would get served all kinds of like landscaping. I don't know, pant, plant care, uh, content on, on social media. Um, and there was a while where it was just like bamboo thing after bamboo thing. And it just, it does look like a homeowner's worst nightmare.

• 45:37Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 45:37Speaker 04

  Uh, you just got no shot against it. Like ruin the foundation of your house if you let it.

• 45:41Speaker 05

  I had a hunting spot that was covered in bamboo and I always felt like it'd be a great place for deer to disappear into.

• 45:46Speaker 04

  Hmm.

• 45:47Speaker 05

  Anybody? If they can get into it.

• 45:48Speaker 04

  Did you ever find them there?

• 45:49Speaker 05

  No, I mean, I didn't hunt in a whole ton. Was it real thick? Pretty thick. Yeah. But it was just enough where it's like, I think some could hide in here.

• 45:56Speaker 04

  Too thick. It'll take over stuff. All right, Brody is today's winner. He got eight correct answers. Brody, what are you gonna do with that $500 donation?

• 46:04Speaker 05

  Um, I'm gonna go back to my old standby, the Mule Deer Foundation. Um, got an article in their summer magazine coming out soon.

• 46:13Speaker 04

  Oh, it's great. About what?

• 46:14Speaker 05

  Fire.

• 46:15Speaker 04

  Fire.

• 46:16Speaker 05

  Fire.

• 46:16Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 46:17Speaker 05

  I think the whole, the whole darn, uh, issue of that magazine might be about fire.

• 46:23Speaker 04

  Oh, wow. Okay. All right, Brody sent in $500 to the Mule Deer Foundation. Join us next week for more Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins.
