  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 a room full of jabronis. We've got Alyssa, Cade, Corey, Marge, Nate, and Jake Wallace and Sarah. Jake, this is your first time on the show. Tell folks what you do here at Meat Eater.

• 2:05Speaker 05

  Yeah, I'm the wholesale and retail marketing manager for Meat Eater.

• 2:09Speaker 04

  What's that mean?

• 2:10Speaker 05

  First Lite and FHF and DSD when they need help. So I help out a lot of our dealers, so Shields and some of the mom and pops. But a big part of my job right now is rolling up the new store in Edina, our Minneapolis location, and I get the other locations dialed in for the Meat Eater store.

• 2:27Speaker 04

  Very excited. That one's gonna open in August.

• 2:30Speaker 05

  Yep, August 15th.

• 2:32Speaker 04

  Great state of Minnesota. What are your strengths and weaknesses when it comes to Meat Eater Trivia? Hunting, fishing, conservation, cooking?

• 2:40Speaker 05

  I think hunting's good, conservation's strong. Depending on where you steer the ship, though, if you get too deep into fishing or somewhere else, it's gonna be, it's gonna be rough.

• 2:50Speaker 04

  Okay, you and Nate will get along.

• 2:52Speaker 05

  Scary seas.

• 2:53Speaker 04

  This is a 10-round quiz show with questions from Meat Eater's four verticals, which again are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. There is a prize. Meat Eater will donate $500 to the conservation organization of the winners choosing. And Meat Eater Trivia is brought to you by one of my favorite beers, Bush Light. Bush Light, head for the mountains. All right, we have a mailbag question today. If you have a question you want the crew to answer, send your question to [email protected] with the subject line "Mailbag." This is from Andrew Robinson. What's the most unique or gross wild game that you've eaten? What do we got?

• 3:28Speaker 05

  I got one. I shot a, I gut shot a doe one time and found it the next morning. Super sad, but we skinned it out. And when we were pulling the, like, the skin off the back, that silver skin on the back strap just came right off. And I touched it and my finger just went through the back strap. And so we tried to eat it. You can imagine it. It tastes very good.

• 3:49Speaker 04

  What did it taste like? Just rotten meat?

• 3:50Speaker 05

  Yeah, just like, I mean, imagine licking the inside of your stomach.

• 3:54Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 3:54Speaker 05

  That's what it tasted like.

• 3:56Speaker 04

  All right, I'll think about that. Other unique or gross wild game in the room. What do we got?

• 4:01Speaker 06

  I got a long list of unique shit. So, Pardon My Plate.

• 4:07Speaker 04

  Marge is there for all the episodes.

• 4:08Speaker 06

  So bobcat, coot, crow, coyote, skunk. Also had alligator here. I've had walrus, and I've had seal.

• 4:18Speaker 04

  That's a unique list. It's gonna be hard to beat Marge.

• 4:21Speaker 05

  I think alligator is definitely, it's a finicky one. I shot like a 10 footer a couple of years ago. And we tried like everything to make that thing taste good. And there's a reason why they fry it. Like, you gotta grind it, put it in chili, or give it a little love for sure.

• 4:36Speaker 04

  I've never been turned off by the taste of alligator, but the texture's always pretty, pretty tough.

• 4:40Speaker 05

  Yeah, and if you get away from the tail, like the front legs and the back legs, it's, it's grainy, to say the least.

• 4:46Speaker 04

  Anything else, Jake, besides gator that has been hard to swallow?

• 4:49Speaker 05

  Tried to eat starlings once.

• 4:51Speaker 04

  Starlings?

• 4:52Speaker 05

  Yep. My father-in-law has a giant mulberry tree.

• 4:55Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 4:55Speaker 05

  And so I'd go under there and shoot them with the 22 and felt guilty for my pile. And I gave it, gave it a try. And it, there's a reason, there's a reason why there's a billion of those things rolling around.

• 5:07Speaker 04

  Other answers in the room?

• 5:08Speaker 02

  I had some Russian clients last year, and they wanted to make like their traditional Russian, like, fish head soup. And the lady, like, the head lady, apparently she was like the Bill Dance of Russia. She was like pro fisherman.

• 5:22Speaker 04

  Falls off her belly. I love that.

• 5:23Speaker 02

  No, no, no, it never fell out, but she's like, nope, I don't need any help. I don't need any, she's bricked up all her own stuff. Anyway, they make the soup by like boiling fish heads, whole salmon carcasses in there, just pick all the meat off. But she would eat the boiled heads after they've cooled off and they're just all fricking coagulated.

• 5:43Speaker 04

  Oh, man.

• 5:43Speaker 02

  If you can imagine the head of a buck's silver salmon, just with the big kype and it's all bulbous. Yeah, she'd just start at the nose and work her way back and just cartilage, teeth, everything.

• 5:55Speaker 04

  Did you take a bite?

• 5:55Speaker 02

  I, I got suckered into it. She's like, everyone in Russia does it. And I was like, oh, well, you know, just being polite, took a big old chomp. And everyone started laughing. I was like, I just got suckered into that. Even the other guides were in on it.

• 6:08Speaker 04

  It's no good. As Marge said, during the Pardon My Plate days, we had a lot of unique things. The two worst, though, were the skunk and the goldfish. And you might be like, well, goldfish, it's not a wild game. They're now found in 49 of 50 states. Like, you know, they're more widespread than the whitetail deer. But the skunk and goldfish, there's no need, no reason to try to eat one of those.

• 6:26Speaker 06

  Skunk was so bad.

• 6:27Speaker 04

  It was bad. Tasted like it, like it smelled.

• 6:30Speaker 06

  And it was so dark.

• 6:31Speaker 04

  Yeah, so if you got a nose, you don't need to try skunk. Any other answers for Andrew before we move on?

• 6:38Speaker 05

  I ate some Ha Carl. Not Ha Carl. It's a putrefied shark in Iceland. Oh, yeah. Gross. Yep.

• 6:50Speaker 05

  Microphone Alyssa, please.

• 6:51Speaker 06

  Sorry, I forgot.

• 6:54Speaker 06

  We had a podcast guest in the old office. We had the whale. I forgot about that. That's where the walrus was.

• 7:00Speaker 04

  What was your review of the fermented whale?

• 7:03Speaker 06

  Was not my favorite. Yeah, it was a little hard to, to get down. But fever, I don't know how unique that is, but fever.

• 7:12Speaker 04

  In this office, it's not unique. But, you know, globally, there's not a lot of folks eating that. So that's, that one works. All right, for housekeeping today, we've had a few listeners tell us that their podcasts are cutting out partway through Meat Eater shows. Phil is here to help. Phil, what do you got?

• 7:28Speaker 05

  I hope I'm here to help. So you may have heard that podcasts are TV shows now. And in the spirit of that, Apple has a video feature on their, on their app. And, and we started putting our Meat Eater shows on Apple Podcasts as video. But the thing that happens when we do that is that the file sizes are 20 times larger than the MP3s that we used to do. You, if you're on Spotify or a different platform, you're probably not running into this issue because you're still only downloading the, the audio file. But if you're on Apple Podcasts and either have bad cell service or not enough room on your phone, or you're, the show is skipping around, there is a really annoying solution that will remain annoying until some iOS update in the future.

• 8:13Speaker 05

  You can download audio only on Apple Podcasts, but you can only do it if automatic downloads are turned on. I'm a manual downloader, and I'm, a lot of you are as well. But if, to reduce the file size, the only way to change that is to go to the show settings. If you go to the Meat Eater Podcast, like, Podcast page in your Podcast app, you go to the upper right-hand corner, there's an ellipses there, three dots. You click on that, go to Show Settings, scroll down to Automatic Downloads, and you can turn that on. And there's some, you can turn it on, like, to only download the most recent episode, or the most recent five, or whatever, however you want to do it. And then right- Right below that, it'll say, "Download audio only," or it'll say, "Download video," and that's set to off.

• 8:58Speaker 05

  I don't know why it only works with automatic downloads on Apple Podcasts. That seems like an insane oversight. Send your complaints to @TimCook. But until there's a future iOS update, the only way to download audio only and reduce those file sizes is to turn on automatic downloads and set download video to off. And if that changes in the future, we'll update you here, I guess.

• 9:21Speaker 04

  Okay, Phil to the rescue. Thank you, Phil. The Shelby index for today is a five, so putting us on perfect score alert. With that, we're on to the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil.

• 9:33Speaker 05

  Look, I'm... Signs really bright enough there.

• 9:37Speaker 06

  Wow. Wow.

• 9:39Speaker 07

  You just tend to win everything.

• 9:47Speaker 06

  Game on, suckers.

• 9:49Speaker 04

  Question one, the topic is cooking. This first great question is via Brian Corser. Which of these is not considered one of the big six foodborne illnesses? Is it botulism, salmonella, E. coli, or norovirus?

• 10:11Speaker 04

  This is from the USDA. They have compiled what they call the big six foodborne illnesses. So it's three of these, a part of the big six, one of them is not. Is it botulism, salmonella, E. coli, or norovirus?

• 10:27Speaker 05

  Way to stick with some current events.

• 10:29Speaker 04

  Yes.

• 10:32Speaker 05

  And just, I want to add one more thing on to the last. Sorry to change topics here, Spencer, but just to add one more thing. I'm sure a lot of people are like, "Well, why are you doing this if there's so many tech issues and it's not working?" And just to be transparent, company man here, it's honest, it's been good for our shows. So a lot, we have new audiences that are finding the shows because Apple is pushing their video stuff more. So, you know, I don't know if you've heard, it's hard to run a media company in the year 2026. And we gotta do what we gotta do.

• 11:01Speaker 04

  And as a consumer, I like having the video feed in the podcast app.

• 11:05Speaker 05

  It's a fun option.

• 11:06Speaker 04

  We're gonna get it figured out. Again, which of these is not considered one of the big six foodborne illnesses? Botulism, salmonella, E. coli, norovirus. Is everybody ready?

• 11:17Speaker 05

  Let's do it.

• 11:18Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey and Alyssa and Sarah and Cade say norovirus. Marge says, what's it say, Marge?

• 11:28Speaker 06

  Norovirus.

• 11:29Speaker 04

  Norovirus. Nate, norovirus. Jake, norovirus. The whole room got it. Ayo. Wrong. Oh, no! The correct answer is botulism.

• 11:40Speaker 06

  I was literally like, how much of a problem is it now?

• 11:43Speaker 05

  Dude, that's a classic jabroni move right there.

• 11:46Speaker 04

  According to the USDA, the big six foodborne illnesses are salmonella, typhoid, shigella, E. coli, norovirus, and hepatitis A. Only about 150 Americans get botulism each year, with a quarter of those being from contaminated food. The most common way to get botulism is from food, from food is by eating canned goods that were improperly preserved.

• 12:12Speaker 05

  But don't you die if you get botulism?

• 12:14Speaker 04

  I think it's a serious thing to get.

• 12:18Speaker 05

  So I had it in there.

• 12:18Speaker 04

  But it's just not common. Again, only 150 people get it, and only about a quarter of those are from food.

• 12:24Speaker 05

  So it's like, it's an occurrence thing, not a like, serious thing?

• 12:27Speaker 04

  I think it's in our universe a lot more because we just work a lot with preserving meat. And it's most common when you're trying to preserve meat because it doesn't have acid, so you need to use a pressure canner. That's why everyone thought that had to be one of the big six. Question two, the topic is hunting.

• 12:41Speaker 05

  Salmonella's fake.

• 12:43Speaker 04

  This term is defined as, quote, "A psychological and neurological condition in archery where anxiety over hitting the bullseye causes a breakdown in the shot process."

• 12:55Speaker 05

  Dude, I got it bad.

• 12:57Speaker 04

  Okay. We'll hear more from Nate about that after the answer is revealed. Maybe that's how you fix it, Nate.

• 13:04Speaker 05

  That's why you got shot that doe, huh? No, there's a different reason I got shot that doe.

• 13:08Speaker 04

  This term is defined as "A psychological and neurological condition in archery where anxiety over hitting the bullseye causes a breakdown in the shot process."

• 13:18Speaker 05

  Is it, are you doing, are you throwing us easy jabroni questions?

• 13:21Speaker 04

  Uh, I tried to get the Shelby index to a five, and we achieved that so that our jabronis can have a fun, high-scoring game.

• 13:29Speaker 05

  Dude, that botulism one, my wife will not eat canned deer meat because of that. Really? Oh, yeah.

• 13:34Speaker 04

  But you tell her that stat, only 150 people and a quarter of those are from food.

• 13:38Speaker 05

  She will think that she will undoubtedly be one of the 150 people.

• 13:43Speaker 04

  Again, we're on question two. The topic is hunting. This term is defined as "A psychological and neurological condition in archery where anxiety over hitting the bullseye causes a breakdown in the shot process." Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey says buck fever. Alyssa says trigger finger. Sarah, target paralysis. Cade, target panic. Marge, buck fever. Nate, target panic. Jake, target panic. The correct answer is target panic.

• 14:16Speaker 05

  Ayo.

• 14:16Speaker 04

  I think we had three of our jabronis get that one right. Target panic can cause flinching, freezing, or misfiring. It's estimated that 90% of archers have experienced it at some point. For tips on dealing with this issue, go read Mark Kenyon's article on the meatdeater.com called "How to Fix Target Panic in Three Steps."

• 14:37Speaker 02

  I shot 4H archery growing up, and my instructor, so we shot the Vegas three-spot targets. And if we would, if we flinched at all when we were shooting our bowhunter with the mechanical releases, he would hit us in the back of the thighs with an arrow.

• 14:52Speaker 04

  Okay. Did that fix it?

• 14:54Speaker 05

  Like a Catholic nun.

• 14:57Speaker 04

  Really? Nate, what does target panic look like for you?

• 15:00Speaker 05

  Oh, just absolute sadness. Terrible shooting.

• 15:05Speaker 04

  Yeah. The most common way I would experience is just like, you kind of don't even know what's gonna happen, but like, just like flinch, like Nate or Cade was describing, and then you're like, "What's going on? My brain wasn't communicating with my body." It's a weird sensation.

• 15:19Speaker 05

  Yeah, I need you to come by my house and whip me in the mornings.

• 15:22Speaker 02

  He uses aluminum arrows too, not the carbon ones.

• 15:24Speaker 04

  Damn.

• 15:24Speaker 02

  That's some old school learning.

• 15:26Speaker 04

  Question three, the topic is outdoors. This next great question is via Nolan Plochek. What month does daylight savings time end?

• 15:36Speaker 05

  Ooh, very topical.

• 15:38Speaker 06

  Very, very topical.

• 15:40Speaker 04

  What month does daylight savings time end?

• 15:48Speaker 04

  This is not a trick question. The answer is, it's like, no month is when it ends. It's one of our 12 months. What month does daylight savings time end?

• 15:58Speaker 03

  I'm from Arizona.

• 16:04Speaker 04

  Is anybody confident in this one? Corey?

• 16:06Speaker 05

  Yeah, I finally got one right.

• 16:08Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 16:10Speaker 05

  I'm surely when it starts and when it ends. That's what I'm... Yeah, I know.

• 16:15Speaker 04

  What month does daylight savings time end? Alyssa, do you have this one right?

• 16:23Speaker 06

  I'm struggling with, I know that, I think I know the two months, but...

• 16:27Speaker 04

  The room is waffling. Does anybody know they have this one?

• 16:33Speaker 04

  No, a lot of maybes in the room. What month does daylight savings time end?

• 16:41Speaker 05

  I can't remember when it starts, or, I mean, I don't know which one is which.

• 16:44Speaker 06

  Yeah, that's kind of...

• 16:45Speaker 05

  And I'm confused on the months. And your phone just switches for you. What do you gotta worry about anymore? Dude, I'm just trying to think. Might not be a problem anymore.

• 16:51Speaker 04

  The microwave, you know?

• 16:53Speaker 05

  Yeah, when I'm deer hunting and like, it's cool and you can get out after work and then it's not cool. That's how I'm relating it too. Is that the thing? I can't remember.

• 17:00Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 17:02Speaker 05

  Lots of hints today.

• 17:03Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey says November. Alyssa, October. Sarah, April. Cade, March. Marge, December. Nate, September. Jake, November.

• 17:20Speaker 04

  There is a correct answer in the room. It's November. I think we had Corey and Jake get that one right. And Kate, if he wouldn't have crossed it out.

• 17:29Speaker 05

  Cause I keep thinking like, you can...

• 17:30Speaker 04

  Daylight savings time begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. This year, those dates fall on March 8th and November 1st. Earlier this month, the House of Representatives passed the Sunshine Protection Act, which would make daylight savings time permanent. Next, it will head to the Senate and then to President Trump. Trump has signaled that he will sign the bill if it makes it to his desk, calling the act a, quote, "Very nice win for the Republican Party." And as Nate talked about, it affects your deer hunting in fall. There was one thing I cared about in college as far as like, getting me to write an email to a politician, and it was to get them to end daylight savings, or keep it so that, you know, the sun was rising later.

• 18:14Speaker 04

  Because the bars stay open the same amount. So when the bar is open till 2:00 AM, I'm gonna be there till 2:00 AM, but now I have to get up an hour earlier when the clocks change. That got me to write some emails, and here we are, like, 13 years later. Maybe it's gonna pay off.

• 18:29Speaker 06

  I read something where they tried it in a couple states, like northern states, and they ended up rolling it back because like, kids walking to school, there were like incidents with cars and kids were having to like, use flashlights to get to school in the morning.

• 18:42Speaker 04

  If you've seen some of the maps, we're gonna be like, in the most affected area. We're gonna have sunrises after 9:00 AM for a period. Not a lot of the country will experience that, but we'll be in like, this small minority of people.

• 18:52Speaker 06

  I like that. Arizona never has adopted daylight savings.

• 18:55Speaker 04

  Arizona, I think the Navajo Nation does. It can get very confusing over there. But yeah, I think Arizona doesn't participate at all. Question four, the topic is woodsmanship. This 10-letter word is defined as, quote, "A trail with a sharp zigzagging route used to safely ascend or descend steep hills."

• 19:19Speaker 04

  The room has their mojo back. This 10-letter word is defined as "A trail with a sharp zigzagging route used to safely ascend or descend steep hills."

• 19:33Speaker 06

  When you're hiking up and... Like northern New England, none of the trails have these.

• 19:38Speaker 05

  They just go up.

• 19:39Speaker 06

  Yeah, so you're looking at like.

• 19:40Speaker 04

  This is a shortcut.

• 19:41Speaker 06

  You know, I would rather just go straight up. Yeah. Pisses me off.

• 19:48Speaker 06

  I'm like, let's just get it over with. Like all like the AT in Maine is all just like. Not a, not one of.

• 19:57Speaker 06

  Get her done.

• 19:58Speaker 04

  Marge is someone who takes the shortcut, then they have to put the sign up later saying, don't take the shortcut. Got to stay on this thing. Ten letter word is defined as a trail with a sharp zigzagging route used to safely ascend or descend steep hills.

• 20:13Speaker 05

  So you're saying that this is more of a Western theme?

• 20:17Speaker 06

  I have encountered them more in the West than I ever did out east.

• 20:21Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey, switchback. Alyssa, switchback. The whole room says switchback. The whole room got it right.

• 20:31Speaker 06

  Nice guys.

• 20:31Speaker 04

  The correct answer is switchback. Switchbacks are designed to make trails more gradual when in a steep area. Ancient humans use them too. Popular hiking trails in Canyonlands National Park and the Columbia River Gorge that feature dozens of switchbacks. Follow historical travel routes that Native Americans used first. Question five, the topic is fishing. This next great question is via Clayton Hines. This man who has hosted an ABC talk show since two thousand and three. Owns a luxury fly fishing lodge in Idaho.

• 21:09Speaker 06

  Great.

• 21:10Speaker 04

  The room is stumped. This man.

• 21:12Speaker 06

  I know.

• 21:12Speaker 04

  Who has hosted an ABC talk show since two thousand and three. Owns a luxury fly fishing lodge in Idaho. This is question five. We'll get a scoreboard update from Phil the engineer after this.

• 21:27Speaker 06

  Spencer is at a wedding recently. And, you know, it was later in the night. People had some drinks and this guy walked up to me. I think he finally like had the courage to come talk to me because he recognized me from Meat Eater. And he goes, you're really bad at trivia.

• 21:44Speaker 04

  Did you, did you tell him like, oh, I had no idea?

• 21:47Speaker 06

  At first I was like, man, I just like, I was in Moab, Utah, just wasn't like thinking about it. And I was like, what is he talking about? And then I was like, oh, me, yes, I am.

• 21:59Speaker 04

  What a kind person.

• 22:00Speaker 06

  So I appreciate being included in the jabronis. I think he would too.

• 22:06Speaker 04

  This man who has hosted an ABC talk show since two thousand and three. Owns a luxury fly fishing lodge in Idaho. I think Nate is the only person who likes his answer.

• 22:18Speaker 05

  I like it.

• 22:20Speaker 04

  Corey, you have this one right.

• 22:21Speaker 05

  Uh, I have an ABC talk show host that I almost took fishing once.

• 22:25Speaker 04

  Oh, okay. Well, there's.

• 22:29Speaker 04

  He canceled on you.

• 22:30Speaker 05

  So if he owns a fishing lodge.

• 22:32Speaker 04

  Wow.

• 22:32Speaker 05

  Better treat his guys better.

• 22:33Speaker 04

  Okay. What a revelation from Corey's past life as a fly fishing guide.

• 22:39Speaker 05

  Was it a past life? Hmm, still living in it, brother.

• 22:43Speaker 06

  Yeah, that's more my problem.

• 22:46Speaker 06

  Like Good Morning America or like. Oh, okay. That kind of thing.

• 22:51Speaker 04

  This man who has hosted an ABC talk show since two thousand and three. Owns a luxury fly fishing lodge in Idaho.

• 22:59Speaker 06

  Jerry Springer.

• 23:02Speaker 06

  Maury.

• 23:08Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 23:09Speaker 05

  Also, do you consider that a talk show?

• 23:11Speaker 06

  No. Hey, the audience talks.

• 23:17Speaker 04

  I think we're waiting on Sarah and Alyssa.

• 23:19Speaker 05

  My answer is making me laugh, so that's fine. That's a good sign.

• 23:25Speaker 06

  I'm gonna take what I have and I'm gonna write it.

• 23:27Speaker 05

  The fly fishing extraordinaire over there.

• 23:29Speaker 06

  I did, I, I'm not in the luxury fly fishing lodge tax bracket.

• 23:35Speaker 05

  Would have preferred a different network. This would have been better.

• 23:38Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey says Jimmy Kimmel. Alyssa, Tucker Carlson. Sarah, Al Roker. Cade, Matt Lauer. Uh, Marge, Jimmy Kimmel. Nate, Tom Brokaw. Jake, Brian Gumbel. The correct answer is Jimmy Kimmel. Corey and Marge got that one right.

• 24:04Speaker 06

  I didn't know it was.

• 24:06Speaker 04

  Kimmel bought the South Fork Lodge near Swan Valley, Idaho in twenty twenty for an estimated eight million dollars. Their website brags of quote, top notch service, unmatched amenities and unexpectedly fine dining. Kimmel is an avid fly angler, fly angler and a board member of the conservation group, American Rivers. Here is a picture that he posted on Facebook in twenty eighteen. He said he caught that cutthroat thirty miles deep in the Bob Marshall Wilderness in Montana. That could have been with you, Corey. That could have been you holding that camera.

  Question six, the topic is conservation. The conservation group dedicated to this eight hundred forty three acre park calls it, quote. One of the most iconic green spaces in the world, featuring a zoo, museum and carousel.

• 27:01Speaker 04

  Marge and Nate and Cade. All at their whiteboards. The conservation group dedicated to this eight hundred forty three acre park calls it one of the most iconic green spaces in the world. Featuring a zoo, museum and carousel.

• 27:19Speaker 06

  Are we naming the park or the?

• 27:20Speaker 04

  The park. Name the park, not the conservation group.

• 27:23Speaker 06

  That's why I was kind of like.

• 27:25Speaker 04

  Marge, did that fan at that wedding tell you that he liked your drawings though?

• 27:29Speaker 06

  You know, no.

• 27:30Speaker 04

  He must not be watching the show.

• 27:31Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 27:32Speaker 04

  Just a listener. Otherwise he would know, uh, the beautiful artwork you come up with each answer.

• 27:37Speaker 05

  It's a great opener. Hi, nice to meet you. You're terrible.

• 27:40Speaker 06

  No, there was no hi, nice to meet you. It was just, you're terrible.

• 27:46Speaker 04

  The conservation group dedicated to this eight hundred forty three acre park calls it one of the most iconic green spaces in the world. Featuring a zoo, museum and carousel.

• 28:00Speaker 05

  Got high hopes for a tiebreaker today, Spencer.

• 28:02Speaker 04

  We, we have been on a long drought here at Meat Eater trivia for tiebreakers, but today could be the day.

• 28:11Speaker 04

  Kay, do you have this one right?

• 28:13Speaker 05

  Oh, I, I'm pretty confident.

• 28:14Speaker 04

  Have you been to this place?

• 28:15Speaker 05

  I have been to this place.

• 28:16Speaker 04

  Okay. Nate, do you like your answer?

• 28:18Speaker 05

  I do.

• 28:18Speaker 04

  Have you been to this place? Marge, do you like your answer?

• 28:21Speaker 06

  I like my answer.

• 28:22Speaker 04

  Have you been to this eight hundred forty three acre park? No.

• 28:25Speaker 06

  No.

• 28:25Speaker 04

  Okay. There's some, uh, helping out the rest of the room. If you know the travels of Cade, Nate and Marge.

• 28:34Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 28:38Speaker 04

  Couldn't wait for Sarah. Put that marker down and we'll flip over the whiteboards.

• 28:45Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey says Jurassic Park.

• 28:49Speaker 05

  Lincoln Park?

• 28:51Speaker 04

  Central Park.

• 28:51Speaker 06

  No, that Lincoln Park is a park.

• 28:53Speaker 04

  Sarah, Lincoln Park.

• 28:54Speaker 05

  It's a...

• 28:55Speaker 04

  Cade, Central Park. Marge, Central Park. Nate, Central Park. Jake, Central Park. The correct answer is Central Park. Ayo.

• 29:04Speaker 05

  That was a dark one. Yeah, Nate, I've never been to New York. It was between those two, but I don't remember the name.

• 29:08Speaker 06

  I know, I... I waffle. I know. People are surprised.

• 29:11Speaker 04

  More than 4,000 species of plants and animals call Central Park home, including a new type of centipede that was discovered there in 2003. The park allows catch and release fishing with rods that you can rent for free at the Discovery Center. The only fish you're not supposed to release is the northern snakehead, which was first detected there in 2013. Question seven, the topic is wildlife. Rikki Tikki Tabby is this type of animal, which also happens to be a bicycle brand.

• 29:41Speaker 05

  Wait, Rikki Tikki Tabby happens to be a bicycle brand?

• 29:46Speaker 04

  Rikki Tikki Tabby is this type of animal, so that this type of animal also happens to be a bicycle brand. Cade, what were you doing in Central Park?

• 29:57Speaker 02

  Uh, just taking in the grand sights of New York City.

• 30:01Speaker 04

  Just visiting, being a well-rounded person.

• 30:03Speaker 02

  That's right.

• 30:04Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 30:04Speaker 02

  I went to that toy store from the movie Big. Played on the piano.

• 30:08Speaker 05

  Oh, wow.

• 30:08Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 30:09Speaker 04

  Rikki Tikki Tabby is this type of animal, which also happens to be a bicycle brand. Does anybody know who Rikki Tikki Tabby is? Oh. Yes? I think so. Sarah, do you have this one right?

• 30:21Speaker 05

  Oh, I got it.

• 30:22Speaker 04

  Marge, do you have this one right?

• 30:23Speaker 05

  I got it.

• 30:24Speaker 06

  Kinda confident.

• 30:25Speaker 04

  Okay. Nate now has got it.

• 30:28Speaker 06

  I think.

• 30:29Speaker 04

  Nate, you know who Rikki Tikki Tabby is?

• 30:31Speaker 05

  No idea.

• 30:31Speaker 04

  Oh, okay.

• 30:32Speaker 05

  But I pulled out a bicycle brand that is an animal.

• 30:35Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 30:35Speaker 05

  Nice. I think. That's good.

• 30:38Speaker 06

  I know. I think... I'm in a battle. Now I'm like, is this a bicycle brand?

• 30:42Speaker 04

  Marge, are you using the clue about the bike brand or Rikki Tikki Tabby?

• 30:46Speaker 06

  The bike brand.

• 30:47Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 30:48Speaker 06

  I know Rikki Tikki Tabby, I just can't picture it. Hmm. Is that like a children's book?

• 30:54Speaker 04

  Not gonna tell you right now.

• 30:57Speaker 05

  I think it's like a cartoon.

• 30:58Speaker 06

  I think it's a cartoon.

• 30:59Speaker 04

  Is this type of animal, which also happens to be a bicycle brand?

• 31:04Speaker 06

  God, now I'm doubting myself more time.

• 31:05Speaker 04

  My flavor text doesn't have anything about Rikki Tikki Tabby, but I knew that Phil could tell us all about Rikki Tikki Tabby.

• 31:13Speaker 05

  I could tell you a tiny bit.

• 31:14Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 31:17Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 31:18Speaker 05

  Does it have something to do with Halo?

• 31:20Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey says mongoose. Alyssa without an answer. Sarah and Cade and Marge and Nate and Jake say mongoose, they got it. The correct answer is mongoose.

• 31:34Speaker 05

  Mongoose.

• 31:34Speaker 04

  Phil, please tell us about Rikki Tikki Tabby.

• 31:37Speaker 05

  Oh, I don't know a lot about him, but he's, I mean, I think the character's like 100 years old, but it's a mongoose that was created by the same guy who wrote The Jungle Book. And it's like from a collection of short stories, but I couldn't tell you anything about the stories or about Rikki Tikki Tabby.

• 31:50Speaker 04

  There are about 30 species of mongoose that are found across Africa, Asia, and Europe. They are most famous for their audacious attacks on cobras, which they eat. Mongouses are not entirely immune to snake venom, but they are highly resistant to it. Question eight. What do you got?

• 32:08Speaker 05

  Modified all-terrain vehicles in the Halo series.

• 32:12Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 32:13Speaker 05

  Yep.

• 32:13Speaker 04

  Phil, you certainly knew that one, right?

• 32:15Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah.

• 32:15Speaker 04

  Yeah, okay.

• 32:16Speaker 05

  Your ghost, your banshee. Mongai.

• 32:18Speaker 04

  Question eight. The topic is hunting. This next great question is our listener question of the week, which was won by Truman Danielson. For sending this great question, Truman 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 [email protected]. According to huntered.com, the five basic parts of a shotgun shell are the case, pellets, blank, gunpowder, and primer.

• 32:50Speaker 05

  Throwing a bone to shotgun guy over there. Well, Sarah's not too shabby over there, she was done. But she also wasn't a professional shotgun shooter.

• 32:58Speaker 06

  I was not a professional shotgun shooter.

• 33:00Speaker 04

  According to huntered.com, the five basic parts of a shotgun shell are the case, pellets, blank, gunpowder, and primer.

• 33:10Speaker 05

  Truman Danielson sounds like a rich guy already. You shouldn't send him the gift card.

• 33:13Speaker 06

  He sounds like someone that knows a whole lot about shotgun shells.

• 33:16Speaker 04

  Yeah, Truman, that's kind of an old money name.

• 33:18Speaker 05

  One of those fancy ones.

• 33:18Speaker 04

  Yeah, and then he's sending us something that's, you know, like skeet adjacent also in like money.

• 33:23Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah. You got a big fancy shotgun?

• 33:25Speaker 04

  Okay, Truman.

• 33:25Speaker 05

  I have, I have two of them.

• 33:27Speaker 04

  Ooh.

• 33:27Speaker 05

  Yeah, but I came through them.

• 33:29Speaker 02

  Bet that guy fishes with a kimble.

• 33:31Speaker 05

  Not my own means. Oh, Jake, Jake, it's your first time, and I'm sorry I have to tell you this on camera, but you've got your cellphone right under the mic there, and we're getting some interference. Sorry. They gotta stay on the table.

• 33:39Speaker 04

  The first time it happens is just a warning, the second time you get fired, so.

• 33:43Speaker 05

  Take away a point.

• 33:44Speaker 06

  Minus one point.

• 33:45Speaker 05

  Okay, well, Alyssa notes that on my file, please.

• 33:50Speaker 04

  According to huntered.com, the five basic parts of a shotgun shell are the case, pellets, blank, gunpowder, and primer.

• 34:00Speaker 05

  Nate, are you aware that in a week, the remastered Halo campaign comes out? They remade the first Halo with all new graphics and modern stuff. Dude, I had no idea. Are we gonna play a legendary run together? I would love to. I have, I've been so, Battlefield was the most recent one, Six, which just came out. Yeah, yes. It got me so close to buying, I've impulse bought three video game systems in my life, and I almost did it a fourth time.

• 34:23Speaker 04

  I recently got served a video of the Halo, like, sound effects guys making those sound effects back in the day, and the Warthog was just like, the one guy's Honda Civic that had a bad muffler on it, and they're like, yeah, that sounds kinda like, you know, a badass vehicle from another planet. Running riot.

• 34:45Speaker 04

  Does everybody have an answer for the five basic parts of a shotgun shell? Case, pellets, blank, gunpowder, primer. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey says wad. Alyssa, steel. Sarah, and Cade, and Marge, and Nate, and Jake, say wad.

• 35:03Speaker 06

  Hey, I was on the turkey episode, I know.

• 35:05Speaker 04

  The correct answer is wad. The wad separates the shot from the powder. The job of the wad is to create a gas seal to propel the shot down the barrel, protect the inside of the barrel from damage, and shape the shot pattern after leaving the muzzle. The vast majority of wads are made of plastic, but traditional materials include fiber, felt, paper, and cardboard.

• 35:27Speaker 05

  It's the most important part of a shotgun shell.

• 35:29Speaker 06

  Did our punk gun have a wad in it?

• 35:29Speaker 04

  It did. Our modern one, yes, had a pretty traditional wad in it.

• 35:34Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 35:34Speaker 04

  But we had found out that, like, the OG shell that it came with, that wad was probably made of cardboard, which is a little terrifying, because holding one of those things is like a stick of dynamite in your hand.

• 35:44Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 35:44Speaker 04

  And that the cardboard is inside, like, doing a very important job.

• 35:48Speaker 06

  I mean, the first time we fired that thing, I think we all, like, stood very far away. It was terrifying.

• 35:53Speaker 04

  Then we got brave. All right, Phil, we got two questions left. Give us a scoreboard update. Oh, that looks like overtime.

• 36:00Speaker 05

  Oh, we'll see. Jake's gonna slip up, and we got Alyssa with two, Sarah has three. Four-way tie for, I guess, second? I don't, I don't, I mess that up all the time.

• 36:11Speaker 04

  You're right.

• 36:11Speaker 05

  Uh, Corey, Cade, Maggie, and Nate all have five points, and then Jake is one point ahead with six.

• 36:16Speaker 04

  Maybe Jake is not a jabroni after all.

• 36:19Speaker 05

  Don't put that on me, Spencer. Don't put that on me.

• 36:21Speaker 04

  Question nine, the topic is fishing.

• 36:25Speaker 05

  There goes.

• 36:25Speaker 04

  Who wrote Moby Dick?

• 36:32Speaker 06

  Oh.

• 36:33Speaker 04

  Looks like Nate could tie him up here.

• 36:35Speaker 05

  This is terrible.

• 36:36Speaker 04

  Ayo. Who wrote Moby Dick?

• 36:38Speaker 05

  Not a big reader.

• 36:39Speaker 06

  It's just a last name, okay?

• 36:40Speaker 04

  Last name will work.

• 36:41Speaker 05

  I can see it, I just don't, can't write it down.

• 36:43Speaker 04

  I respect the Jeopardy! rules, if you can come up with the last name.

• 36:49Speaker 05

  It's on my shelf, it's the one I'm reading next.

• 36:50Speaker 04

  Hmm. I have, uh, I have not read this book, but I looked at the audiobook, and it's like 24 hours long. My goodness.

• 37:01Speaker 04

  Who wrote Moby Dick?

• 37:04Speaker 04

  Sarah, you got the last name of this person?

• 37:06Speaker 06

  I think so, yeah.

• 37:09Speaker 04

  Could have a three, uh, tie going into question 10.

• 37:14Speaker 06

  Bad language.

• 37:18Speaker 06

  I know.

• 37:20Speaker 04

  Has anybody read this book?

• 37:21Speaker 06

  No.

• 37:23Speaker 04

  No.

• 37:24Speaker 05

  Read a few chapters. It's terrible.

• 37:26Speaker 06

  And then stopped?

• 37:27Speaker 05

  Yeah, it's a long one.

• 37:29Speaker 06

  Well, that was enough of that.

• 37:32Speaker 04

  Who wrote Moby Dick?

• 37:33Speaker 06

  Honestly, that's how I felt about the Odyssey.

• 37:35Speaker 04

  Fishing, one of the most famous fishing books of all time.

• 37:38Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 37:39Speaker 06

  In the Iliad, I was like, none of that. I think.

• 37:41Speaker 05

  Isn't Moby Dick a whale?

• 37:43Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 37:43Speaker 05

  How are we fishing?

• 37:44Speaker 03

  I mean, they used to fish for whales.

• 37:46Speaker 04

  He fishes for it.

• 37:47Speaker 05

  They're not fish.

• 37:48Speaker 02

  It's whaling.

• 37:49Speaker 03

  They're like, thank you.

• 37:50Speaker 04

  The topic is whaling. There you go.

• 37:52Speaker 05

  Talk about fishing after this? I'm just excited to get double points off this one.

• 37:58Speaker 06

  Double points. Stop trying to make double points happen.

• 38:01Speaker 05

  Double points aren't gonna happen.

• 38:03Speaker 06

  Double points aren't gonna happen.

• 38:06Speaker 05

  Man, I got a Halo reference and a Meagre reference in this episode.

• 38:10Speaker 04

  Is everybody ready?

• 38:13Speaker 05

  It's gonna be so upsetting.

• 38:14Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Corey says Williams, Alyssa without an answer, Sarah says Melville, Cade, Dickinson, Marge, Hemingway, Nate, Herman Melville, and Jake says Dickinson. The correct answer is Herman Melville.

• 38:32Speaker 05

  Ayo. Liberal arts, baby.

• 38:35Speaker 06

  Going old man in the sea for you there.

• 38:37Speaker 04

  Yeah. Herman Melville wrote Moby Dick in 1851. The book took him 18 months to complete. He relied on his experience as a sailor and whaler of which he spent three years doing. Melville said his literary influences were Shakespeare and the Bible and that Moby Dick's ending is based on the real life whale ship Essex. Right here's a correct answer review so far. One was botulism, two, target panic, three, November, four, switchback, five, Jimmy Kimmel, six, Central Park, seven, mongoose, eight, wad, nine, Herman Melville. Phil, scoreboard update.

• 39:17Speaker 06

  All right, we caught that.

• 39:18Speaker 05

  Nate busted out the library card and tied it up.

• 39:22Speaker 05

  He's tied up with Jake. They both have six points. Behind them are Maggie, Cade, and Corey with five.

• 39:28Speaker 04

  Here is question 10. The topic is natural history.

• 39:31Speaker 05

  Great.

• 39:32Speaker 04

  This 10-letter word is defined as, quote, "a hard-fired clay, brownish-red in color when unglazed, that is used for pottery and as a material for sculpture."

• 39:47Speaker 04

  Sarah, who is not in the running to win, is first to come up with the answer.

• 39:51Speaker 05

  You could tie it, right?

• 39:52Speaker 06

  Oh, I got her. Uh, Sarah, if you guys get it wrong.

• 39:54Speaker 04

  Marge has it, right?

• 39:55Speaker 05

  No, Sarah's, uh, Sarah can't tie it. The only people who can are Corey, Kate, and Maggie.

• 40:00Speaker 04

  This is natural history.

• 40:02Speaker 06

  It is natural.

• 40:03Speaker 04

  This 10-letter word is defined as "a hard-fired clay..."

• 40:07Speaker 05

  You son of a gun.

• 40:08Speaker 04

  "...brownish-red in color when unglazed, that is used for pottery and as a material for sculpture."

• 40:15Speaker 05

  Let's just flip them over now.

• 40:16Speaker 04

  So.

• 40:16Speaker 06

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 40:17Speaker 04

  If Jake or Nate can get this one right.

• 40:21Speaker 06

  Yeah. This is... My liberal arts education is really benefiting you here.

• 40:25Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 40:26Speaker 05

  Dude, one time I made this really cool clay elephant. I'm like 10th grade pottery or 8th grade, whatever. And then I got a 340 Weatherby and I shot it and my mom was livid. She was like, "That's the only thing you ever made in school that I cared about."

• 40:40Speaker 04

  Yeah, I mean, that was, that was even better than being worthy of the fridge. She was putting that someplace nice.

• 40:45Speaker 05

  It was in the china cabinet.

• 40:46Speaker 04

  Wow.

• 40:47Speaker 05

  That's what I, that's what I should have known.

• 40:48Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 40:49Speaker 04

  I'm siding with your mom.

• 40:51Speaker 05

  Yeah, the head could come off and everything. Oh, I made one of those too. Yeah. But it didn't turn out the way you think it's gonna turn out.

• 40:57Speaker 04

  This 10-letter word is defined as, "a hard-fired clay, brownish-red in color when unglazed, that is used for pottery and as a material for sculpture." Phil, remind me who can tie Nate and Jake?

• 41:11Speaker 05

  Corey, Cade, and Maggie all have five points.

• 41:13Speaker 04

  Okay, Corey, do you have this one right?

• 41:15Speaker 05

  Yep.

• 41:16Speaker 04

  Cade, do you have this one right?

• 41:17Speaker 02

  Highly confident.

• 41:18Speaker 04

  Marge, do you have this one right?

• 41:20Speaker 05

  Tie.

• 41:20Speaker 06

  This could be nuts.

• 41:22Speaker 04

  Okay, no, we could have a five-way tie.

• 41:25Speaker 05

  This is so far off my radar. Oh, no.

• 41:27Speaker 04

  Okay, Jake and Nate are the least confident players in the room right now.

• 41:32Speaker 05

  Flip them over. Just a minute, just a minute.

• 41:34Speaker 06

  No, we gotta countdown time.

• 41:36Speaker 05

  Should have brushed up on my pottery. Took ceramics too, it's terrible.

• 41:39Speaker 04

  Wow, he took ceramics? What an advantage.

• 41:46Speaker 04

  When they finish the Jeopardy theme song, we're gonna flip over the wife.

• 41:50Speaker 05

  Start over real quick. Just start from the top.

• 41:54Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers.

• 41:57Speaker 05

  Ah!

• 41:57Speaker 04

  Corey and Alyssa and Sarah and Kate and Marge say terracotta. Nate and Jake without answers. The correct answer is terracotta.

• 42:09Speaker 05

  Great job, guys.

• 42:10Speaker 04

  The earliest known use of a type of terracotta is from 26,000 B.C. A four-inch sculpture from that era depicting a nude woman was discovered in the Czech Republic in 1924. It's believed that the figurine is a symbol of fertility and that it originally had four feathers attached to it. Here is a picture. I'll butcher the pronunciation. That is the Venus of Donny Viste Nancy.

• 42:37Speaker 06

  How big is that?

• 42:38Speaker 04

  Four inches and it's 28,000 years old.

• 42:41Speaker 05

  Wow.

• 42:41Speaker 04

  All right, we are heading to overtime. Play the drop, Phil.

• 42:51Speaker 04

  And this is maybe the biggest overtime in Meat Eater trivia history. We have everybody, I think, except for Sarah and Alyssa, but they're going to play along as well because if somebody gets it right on the nose, Meat Eater is going to add an extra $100 donation to today's game. All right, the tie-breaking topic is hunting. This is a numerical question, so whoever's closest will be the winner. How many days is the average gestation period for whitetail deer?

• 43:20Speaker 05

  Hmm. Have you not done this question already?

• 43:22Speaker 04

  Uh, on episode one, we did an elk, but we have never done whitetail deer.

• 43:28Speaker 05

  Okay, I thought so. I was with you like two or three on that.

• 43:30Speaker 04

  240 episodes ago, we had an elk gestation period question. Today, we are talking about whitetail deer. How many days is the average gestation period for whitetail deer?

• 43:44Speaker 05

  You want a days number?

• 43:46Speaker 04

  Days, that's right.

• 43:49Speaker 04

  Not hours, not months, days.

• 43:57Speaker 04

  Five players in the running today to be the winner. Cade, representing the entire Meat Eater Store Boys crew.

• 44:09Speaker 04

  Marge, have you ever won Meat Eater trivia?

• 44:12Speaker 06

  No.

• 44:12Speaker 04

  Have you ever been in overtime?

• 44:14Speaker 06

  No, I did tie Yanis one time.

• 44:16Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 44:17Speaker 06

  Second, which felt pretty cool.

• 44:19Speaker 04

  Today could be a real victory. Nate, you've, you've got a couple W's. Corey, you're actually the king jabroni.

• 44:25Speaker 05

  That's right.

• 44:25Speaker 04

  Right now.

• 44:26Speaker 05

  He is.

• 44:27Speaker 04

  And Jake, this is his first episode.

• 44:31Speaker 04

  How many days is the average gestation period for whitetail deer?

• 44:39Speaker 05

  Can I use your marker?

• 44:41Speaker 04

  Nate has a blank whiteboard. He's been doing a lot of math over there.

• 44:45Speaker 05

  See that selfless act right there? Nobody cares.

• 44:50Speaker 05

  It's so violent.

• 44:52Speaker 04

  Marge, are you doing math or are you drawing?

• 44:54Speaker 06

  I am doing math.

• 44:55Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 44:58Speaker 04

  Corey, do you like your answer?

• 44:59Speaker 05

  Man, I don't know.

• 45:03Speaker 04

  Kate, are you close?

• 45:05Speaker 02

  I feel pretty good. If I, if I get this, they're probably gonna, we're gonna shut the store down.

• 45:12Speaker 05

  All right. Oh, shoot.

• 45:16Speaker 04

  Corey doing some more writing. Now Nate revisiting his answer. Is everybody ready?

• 45:21Speaker 06

  No.

• 45:22Speaker 04

  How many days is the average gestation period for whitetail deer?

• 45:26Speaker 06

  Great question.

• 45:29Speaker 04

  Everybody ready?

• 45:30Speaker 06

  Sure.

• 45:31Speaker 04

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Alyssa says 273, Sarah says 275. Our five players left. We have Corey saying 198, Cade 215, Marge 200, Alyssa 213, excuse me, Nate 213, Jake 185. One of you is two days off from the correct answer. The correct answer is 202 days. Marge! Got it! Only 48 hours from the correct answer. Well done, Marge.

• 46:12Speaker 04

  This data is from a study that observed 89 whitetail does. 202 days is roughly six and a half months. That means if a doe is bred on November 10th, she'll give birth on May 31st. All right, Marge, as the winner, you get to choose, and we're gonna say that's right on the nose because 202 to 200, it's the same thing. Marge, what are you gonna do with that $600 donation today?

• 46:35Speaker 06

  Sportsman's for the Bounder Ladders.

• 46:36Speaker 04

  There's a lot of stuff going on up there. Do you know anybody in the area affected by the wildfires right now?

• 46:41Speaker 06

  You know, I need to check in with our old gear manager, Carl, because his family owns an outfitter, canoe outfitter up in Ely, so I'm not quite sure.

• 46:51Speaker 04

  Well done, Marge. First victory, $600 donation, going to a good cause. Well done, jabronis.

• 46:57Speaker 05

  Nice.

• 46:58Speaker 04

  Someone once said, "Everybody's got a plan until they get punched in the mouth."

• 48:21Speaker 03

  I did, Mike Tyson. Oh, well, Mike Tyson and Boost are here to tell you that your mobile plan is punching you in the mouth with prices that can knock you out. That's a low blow. Totally, but you can do something about it. You have to punch back. No, Mike, you gotta switch to Boost with a plan that's $25 a month forever. Oh, that's a great plan. Maybe you can do both. Boost Mobile, what's your plan?

• 48:47Speaker 00

  Okay, laundry stinks, literally. I mean, you could just keep buying new underwear, not that I've ever done that. Or maybe sort your clothes into piles based on how re-wearable or filthy they are. Or just use Arm & Hammer Deep Clean. It's made for real life stinks and stains. So even if you don't do laundry the quote "right way," Deep Clean will knock it out. I mean, it is from the number one liquid detergent brand that tackles more loads than any other. Come clean with Arm & Hammer Deep Clean. Number one claim based on total wash loads sold.
