  Welcome to Meat Eater Trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins. There is a prize. Meat Eater will donate $500 to the conservation organization of the winner's choosing. I'm your host, Spencer Neworth, and today we're joined by Yannis, Corey, Max, Laura, Omar, Riva, and Nate. This is a 10-round quiz show with questions from Meat Eater's four verticals, which are hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. Meat Eater Trivia is brought to you by one of my favorite beers, Busch Light. Busch Light, head for the mountains. All right, we're starting today's episode with a mailbag question. If you have a question you want the crew to answer, then send your question with the subject line mailbag to [email protected].

• 2:26Speaker 06

  I like this question.

• 2:27Speaker 05

  This is probably my favorite one we've gotten so far. It was sent just a couple of hours ago this morning. It is from Madeline L. "My husband and I do not get many date nights. This means when hunting season comes around, we treat it as date nights, leaving the kids with my family and go sit out in the stand or blind together. We take turns per season, whose turn it is to get to shoot and have a chance at an animal. Two years ago, my husband harvested his first black bear. Last year, we went bear hunting and it was my turn to shoot, but we did not even see a single bear, so we walked away with nothing. We are now having a tip about whose turn it is to shoot this year. He thinks it is his, because it was my opportunity last year, and it doesn't matter that we didn't see anything.

• 3:10Speaker 05

  I think it is mine, because I didn't get to harvest an animal or even get to shoot. I would love the crew's thoughts and input. Whose turn is it?" Yeah, she hasn't had an opportunity yet.

• 3:20Speaker 06

  What a dick.

• 3:21Speaker 05

  Okay. It would be different if she, like, missed a bear, and then it would be like his turn up the bat, you know? But yeah, ladies first. My, my take would be if it was the husb- if, like, both of you have never shot a bear before. Husband got his first bear, now it's your turn, you didn't get one yet. I think it should just be your turn, until you get that opportunity or get that bear. After that, I think you could just alternate, and like, if you strike out then, beyond that, that, that was your season, that was your chance. Now it goes back to your husband.

• 3:48Speaker 06

  But I, I think there's a little bit of a twist with the fact that they're probably not just hunting bears, right? There's like deer seasons coming up or whatever. So how does it play into when it comes, when it comes to a, a different species?

• 4:02Speaker 05

  I think if you've each had your first deer, if you've each had your first turkey, just alternate beyond that. But assuming this is everyone's first black bear, let Madeline have the shot. But also, team Madeline.

• 4:13Speaker 06

  Yeah, for sure. But if they go deer hunting, I think they should sort of like start back at zero, and they just trade, trade off.

• 4:19Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 4:19Speaker 06

  And this time, you really gotta decide, are we doing it per day? Are we doing it per sit? Are we doing it per animal? And just have that discussion ahead of time.

• 4:27Speaker 05

  Some people do it per hour, too. Like, oh, this is your hour.

• 4:30Speaker 06

  Oh, that's insane.

• 4:31Speaker 05

  Riva, Riva has some input. Riva, whose turn is it?

• 4:34Speaker 03

  It seems like he should have first right of refusal. But it would be a gentlemanly thing to let her have it.

• 4:41Speaker 05

  That's right.

• 4:41Speaker 06

  I agree.

• 4:42Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 4:43Speaker 06

  I, I, in my house, my wife just makes all the rules, so I don't know what they're debating about. She could have had 10 shots at bears, she's like, this is my shot, it's gonna be her shot.

• 4:52Speaker 05

  Yeah. Laura, what do you think? Whose turn is it?

• 4:55Speaker 07

  Oh, well, I took the literal route, where she said we take turns each season. So, I mean, you strike out.

• 5:03Speaker 05

  Okay. You, you're passing it on then, you think it's the husband's turn again.

• 5:07Speaker 07

  Yeah, I don't know.

• 5:08Speaker 05

  All right, we have, I think, eight folks in this room, and it seems like six of us are team Madeline, and one or two, team husband. Phil Taylor, what do you think? Give, give us your thoughts.

• 5:18Speaker 04

  I, there cannot be a person in this room with less authority or perspective. So I'll just, as I often do, I'll side with the wife.

• 5:27Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 5:27Speaker 02

  Smart move.

• 5:29Speaker 05

  Team Madeline, it's Madeline's turn again, at least until she gets her first bear, gets her first chance.

• 5:34Speaker 06

  I heard a good one the other day. A fellow, I was in a class I was taking, and we're doing like introductions, and the guy was making a joke, but he said, "Yeah, I make all of the big decisions in this relationship here. We just haven't had any big decisions to make yet."

• 5:51Speaker 05

  No housekeeping today. The Shelby index for this episode is a three. It's where winners should get six correct answers. And with that, we're on to the game of trivia. Play the drop, Phil.

• 6:02Speaker 02

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

• 6:17Speaker 03

  Game on, suckers.

• 6:19Speaker 05

  Question one, the topic is hunting. This first great question is via Shalantichi. "The American Kennel Club places beagles in this class of dog. Is it sporting, working, herding, or hound?

• 6:39Speaker 05

  The American Kennel Club places beagles in this class of dog. Is it sporting, working, herding, or hound? Max, would have you needed the choices on this one? You were pretty quick to answer. Yeah, I would have. Just, yeah, just to make sure my answer was, had a, I, yeah, just make sure I had a chance.

• 7:01Speaker 06

  I don't know what all, I don't know if I would have known the classes to choose from.

• 7:05Speaker 04

  I thought it was gonna be something else, like type of game they pursue or something.

• 7:08Speaker 06

  Like, I wouldn't know what the difference between working and herding is. Like, what's an example of a working? Well, I guess you'll tell us in the flavor text.

• 7:16Speaker 05

  The American Kennel Club places beagles in this class of dog. Sporting, working, herding, hound. I don't even know if I'm right.

• 7:25Speaker 06

  I kinda wanna beagle.

• 7:26Speaker 03

  Herding is like...

• 7:27Speaker 04

  Yeah, they're pretty cool dogs.

• 7:29Speaker 06

  Yeah, but, but what's working?

• 7:32Speaker 02

  Like a German shepherd.

• 7:33Speaker 05

  All right, we're giving a lot of hints out here. Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Yanni says hound, Laura, hound, Riva, hound, Omar, hound, Upside down. Corey, hound, Nate, hound, Max, hound. The whole room got it right. The correct answer is hound. AKC says that the hound category is a group of dogs that share the ancestral trait of being used for hunting. This class is known for its stamina, nose, and baying. The hound group includes coon hounds, fox hounds, blood hounds, basset hounds, greyhounds, whippets, dachshunds, beagles, and more. Even a whippet, huh?

• 8:14Speaker 05

  And a whippet. I didn't have sporting, or I didn't have flavor text for the other groups, but sporting, that's like labs, I think. Bird dogs. Retrievers, yeah. Working, as, as Omar said, I'm guessing a, a German shepherd, maybe. My healer.

• 8:29Speaker 06

  Malinois. I've met a new dog when I was in Kansas last week that I'd never even heard of. Has anybody heard of a patterdale?

• 8:36Speaker 05

  No, no.

• 8:38Speaker 06

  It is like, you guys should Google it, image it later. When you first meet him, you're like, oh, it's a lab puppy with a dock tail. I mean, that's what it looks like, full grown.

• 8:48Speaker 06

  And very lovable. They almost kind of act like a lab puppy when you're just hanging out with them, until they're within like scent distance of a coon, which then the other side of that dog comes out, and they go and kill the coon or whatever, you know, critter you've trained it to get after.

• 9:04Speaker 05

  Patterdale?

• 9:04Speaker 06

  Patterdale, yeah. So it's basically like a lab puppy that kills coons. It's kinda...

• 9:09Speaker 04

  That's sick.

• 9:10Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 9:11Speaker 05

  Just some quick Googling here. Part of the working group, you have Siberian Huskies, Dobermans, and Great Danes, and then part of the herding group, Border Collies, German Shepherds, and Welsh Corgis.

• 9:23Speaker 06

  Where does the patterdale fall in?

• 9:25Speaker 05

  I don't know. We are going to move on to question two. I would say hound. The topic is woodsmanship. "The Discovery Channel debuted this risque reality show in 2013, which one TV critic called, quote, 'more voyeuristic than educational.'"

• 9:46Speaker 05

  The Discovery Channel debuted this risque reality show in 2013, which one TV critic called more voyeuristic than educational. Nate and Corey, quick to answer.

• 9:59Speaker 04

  See?

• 10:00Speaker 05

  Corey, have you seen this show?

• 10:01Speaker 06

  I have not.

• 10:02Speaker 05

  Okay. Laura, do you have this one right?

• 10:04Speaker 07

  I think so.

• 10:05Speaker 05

  Okay. Do you like this TV show?

• 10:07Speaker 07

  No, 2013 was a weird time for TV shows.

• 10:11Speaker 05

  Hmm, okay. Can you expand on that for us?

• 10:14Speaker 07

  No.

• 10:16Speaker 05

  Phil was nodding his head in agreement, though. He also thinks 2013 was a weird year for TV.

• 10:21Speaker 04

  Was I?

• 10:23Speaker 05

  No, but I wanted to make Laura feel better. The Discovery Channel debuted this risque reality show in 2013, which one TV critic called more voyeuristic than educational. Yanni with a blank whiteboard over here.

• 10:38Speaker 06

  I had two very young kids that year.

• 10:41Speaker 05

  Oh, okay.

• 10:42Speaker 06

  Wasn't doing a lot of TV watching.

• 10:44Speaker 04

  Probably because they weren't sucking on binkies, probably.

• 10:48Speaker 06

  Paid off.

• 10:49Speaker 04

  There you go.

• 10:50Speaker 05

  Maxwell doesn't know this one either. Omar, do you know this one?

• 10:54Speaker 02

  I was a sophomore in high school. I was not watching too much TV.

• 10:57Speaker 05

  Hmm, okay. Riva, do you have an answer?

• 10:59Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 11:00Speaker 05

  Do you have this one right?

• 11:01Speaker 03

  I think so, yeah.

• 11:02Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 11:02Speaker 06

  Oh, Riva knows it! Yeah.

• 11:04Speaker 05

  Nope.

• 11:05Speaker 06

  Discovery Channel, is there like a shark nature reality?

• 11:11Speaker 05

  I don't know. A risque reality show, which one TV critic called more voyeuristic than educational.

• 11:21Speaker 04

  You guys ever seen an Egyptian Pharaoh dog?

• 11:25Speaker 04

  That's another one I didn't know existed till I saw it. And you see it and you're like, "That looks like an Egyptian dog." And turns out, it had a double ACL tear.

• 11:35Speaker 05

  Dang.

• 11:35Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 11:36Speaker 05

  They did just put that thing down if it was like 50 years ago.

• 11:38Speaker 04

  Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. Weird looking dog.

• 11:42Speaker 05

  Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Yanni says Shark Brothers. Laura, Naked and Afraid.

• 11:51Speaker 06

  Nope.

• 11:51Speaker 05

  Riva, Naked and Afraid. Omar, Naked and Afraid. Corey, Naked and Afraid. Nate, Naked and Afraid. Max, Bear Grylls. The correct answer is Naked and Afraid.

• 12:04Speaker 02

  Bear Grylls is like 06, Max.

• 12:07Speaker 06

  Yeah, who knows?

• 12:08Speaker 05

  Naked and Afraid is Corey every night. Naked and Afraid is a reality show where two survivalists, usually a man and woman who have never met before, are dropped into extreme wilderness locations. And as the name implies, they don't have clothes. One former contestant said in a 2022 TikTok that she is aware of at least five former duos who have hooked up while filming the show. Naked and Afraid is in its 19th season.

• 12:33Speaker 06

  Geez.

• 12:34Speaker 04

  Yeah, great idea. I mean, that producer, I guarantee you, multimillionaire.

• 12:39Speaker 05

  You could just do any reality show going forward, like Naked and Basketball. Naked and Fixer Upper.

• 12:47Speaker 07

  What about Meat Eater and Afraid?

• 12:49Speaker 05

  Okay, Naked Meat Eater and Afraid.

• 12:54Speaker 05

  Question three, the topic is nature. The central part of this state is known as Sinkhole Alley, where porous limestone and abundant rainfall create America's highest frequency of ground collapses.

• 13:12Speaker 05

  The central part of this state is known as Sinkhole Alley, where porous limestone and abundant rainfall create America's highest frequency of ground collapses. Nate, the only player with an answer so far. And I don't know that he likes his answer either.

• 13:29Speaker 04

  No, it's a numbers game for me.

• 13:31Speaker 05

  Okay. One in 50 numbers game.

• 13:34Speaker 06

  Where's there a bunch of limestone?

• 13:36Speaker 05

  Hmm. The central part of this state is known as Sinkhole Alley, where porous limestone and abundant rainfall create America's highest frequency of ground collapses.

• 13:54Speaker 05

  Maxwell, do you have a state?

• 13:55Speaker 06

  Yeah, I got a state.

• 13:56Speaker 05

  Okay. Riva, do you have an answer?

• 13:59Speaker 03

  I have something, but it's a guess.

• 14:02Speaker 05

  Sinkhole Alley, where is that located? Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Yanni says Kentucky. Laura, Alaska. Riva says Arkansas. Omar, California. Corey, Tennessee. Nate, California. Max, Kentucky. The correct answer is none of those. It's Florida.

• 14:29Speaker 06

  Oh.

• 14:30Speaker 05

  Dang. Three specific counties, Pasco, Hernando, and Hillsborough, create Sinkhole Alley. They account for 70, 75% of Florida's reported ground collapses. Tampa is in the heart of Sinkhole Alley with thousands of insurance-related sinkhole claims each year. Sinkhole season in Florida occurs in January and February and May and June, when groundwater tables fluctuate the most. This is the biggest sinkhole in modern US history that happened in Sinkhole Alley, 350 feet wide, 90 feet deep. It swallowed a home, Olympic-sized swimming pool, and car dealership. Today, it is a pond that's known as Lake Rose, and it's named after the homeowner who had their house swallowed by that sinkhole.

• 15:15Speaker 06

  Wow.

• 15:16Speaker 04

  Wow. Did they make it out alive?

• 15:18Speaker 05

  I don't think there were any injuries or deaths, I believe, in that accident. But Florida just bodies the rest of the country when it comes to making sinkholes.

• 15:27Speaker 03

  I should have known that, because I lived in Orlando for a while, and that was something people talked about.

• 15:32Speaker 05

  Hmm.

• 15:33Speaker 06

  Come on, Riva.

• 15:33Speaker 04

  Could have taken the lead.

• 15:34Speaker 05

  Orlando likes their sinkholes as well. All right, we're on to question four. Topic is gear. This next great question is via Chase Stacey. This Swedish brand with a nine-letter name is best known for their chainsaws, even though they made firearms for 300 years.

• 15:58Speaker 05

  Nate has his answer. Yanni started to write, but then paused. This Swedish brand with a nine-letter name is best known for their chainsaws, even though they made firearms for 300 years. Maxwell, do you have this one right?

• 16:14Speaker 06

  I got a Swedish name, maybe?

• 16:17Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 16:18Speaker 06

  And I, yeah, I think they make chainsaws. I didn't spell it right, though.

• 16:24Speaker 05

  Spelling doesn't count?

• 16:25Speaker 06

  No, it does. If only.

• 16:29Speaker 05

  This Swedish brand with a nine-letter name is best known for their chainsaws, even though they made guns for 300 years. Omar, do you have this one right? I think I do. Corey, do you have this one right?

• 16:43Speaker 06

  We'll see.

• 16:43Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 16:45Speaker 06

  Got a great guess.

• 16:46Speaker 05

  Laura, do you have an answer? No. Yanni, did you get this one?

• 16:51Speaker 06

  I believe so.

• 16:52Speaker 05

  Okay. Room feels okay.

• 16:56Speaker 05

  Is everybody ready? Go ahead and reveal your answers. Yanni says Husqvarna. Laura, without an answer. Riva, Husqvarna. The rest of the room says Husqvarna. They got it. The correct answer is Husqvarna. And I see the brand spelled with a Q or a K, based on which country they're advertising in. Husqvarna was founded in 1689 as a musket maker for the Swedish army. They expanded into sewing machines, meat grinders, and bicycles in the 1800s, followed by motorcycles, lawn mowers, and chainsaws in the 1900s. Husqvarna made their final firearm in 1989, causing their rifles to become very collectible to gun enthusiasts.

• 17:42Speaker 05

  Question five, the topic is fishing. The name of this fish is often shortened to GT, which Western Angler Magazine says is, quote, "one of the fiercest fish predators in the world."

• 18:00Speaker 05

  Max, confident. Corey, confident.

• 18:02Speaker 02

  Corey was very confident.

• 18:03Speaker 05

  Laura, confident. Yanni, confident. The name of this fish is often shortened to GT, which Western Angler Magazine says is "one of the fiercest fish predators in the world." Has anyone in the room caught a GT before?

• 18:21Speaker 07

  No.

• 18:21Speaker 05

  Nope. No, okay.

• 18:23Speaker 06

  I don't have too many here in Montana.

• 18:25Speaker 05

  There's a hint.

• 18:27Speaker 06

  There's a few.

• 18:28Speaker 05

  Nate, I feel bad for you.

• 18:30Speaker 06

  You gotta hike a long way.

• 18:31Speaker 04

  Dude.

• 18:32Speaker 07

  Yeah, they're out in the Bob Marshall.

• 18:33Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 18:35Speaker 06

  Have you used that fishing rod yet in your office?

• 18:36Speaker 04

  Of course not.

• 18:38Speaker 05

  The name of this fish.

• 18:40Speaker 04

  I will do it at some point. I will do it before this child is born.

• 18:42Speaker 07

  What you got in the, in your office?

• 18:44Speaker 04

  Something off the free table.

• 18:45Speaker 06

  It's an ugly stick.

• 18:46Speaker 04

  What? Hey, you take that back.

• 18:47Speaker 06

  Oh, that's what it's called.

• 18:50Speaker 05

  The name of this fish is often shortened to GT, which Western Angler Magazine says is "one of the fiercest fish predators in the world." Yanni, are we just doodling over here?

• 19:00Speaker 06

  Yeah, I'm ready.

• 19:01Speaker 05

  Okay, all right. Is the rest of the room ready? I've seen a video on this, but I don't know. I got it right. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Yanni, giant trivally. Laura, same answer. Riva, gator trout. Omar, gator trivally. Corey, grand trivally.

• 19:21Speaker 06

  I know, I know.

• 19:22Speaker 05

  Nate, grand tarpon. Max, giant trivally. The correct answer is giant trivally.

• 19:30Speaker 06

  Mm-hmm.

• 19:30Speaker 04

  Bummer.

• 19:30Speaker 06

  Corey. No, in my head, I'm like, that's what I wrote down.

• 19:33Speaker 05

  A bucket list fish. Giant trivally are a type of jack and are the biggest of the trivally species.

• 19:40Speaker 04

  Never heard that fish in my life.

• 19:41Speaker 05

  They are considered an adventure fish because of their size, speed, attitude, and challenging water where they live. GT like to hunt along shallow reefs, which is where anglers throw poppers for them. All right, and now it's time for our Can-Am question of the week. Thanks to Can-Am, you get some bonus trivia in this week's episode. This does not count towards your score. It's just for bragging rights. Here's the question. The topic is hunting. Can-Am says that this five-letter accessory will, quote, "undoubtedly save the day when you need to get unstuck or hoist a large animal."

• 20:19Speaker 04

  Bing bang boom bop.

• 20:21Speaker 05

  We are halfway through the game of trivia, so we will get a scoreboard update after this. But right now, we're on to the bonus Can-Am question. Can-Am says that this five-letter accessory will undoubtedly save the day when you need to get unstuck or hoist a large animal. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Yanni, winch. Laura, winch. Reva says, can-am. The rest of the room says, winch, they got it. It's a winch. That was our Can-Am question of the week. Can-Am, unstoppable.

• 20:54Speaker 06

  Thanks, Can-Am.

• 20:55Speaker 05

  All right, Phil, scoreboard update.

• 20:57Speaker 04

  I don't know if this has happened before, especially in a game full of seven players.

• 21:00Speaker 05

  Oh, my goodness. This has definitely never happened.

• 21:03Speaker 04

  The entire room, all seven players have three points. Oh, yeah.

• 21:07Speaker 06

  Everyone's got a chance. As they say, anybody's game, anybody's game.

• 21:11Speaker 05

  Let's have a seven-way overtime. I would be tickled if that happened.

• 21:17Speaker 06

  All right, I'll throw the game.

• 21:18Speaker 04

  Let's death pack, we just get all the rest of them wrong.

• 21:20Speaker 07

  It's like a grand Tetra. I don't know, that's gonna haunt me forever.

• 21:26Speaker 07

  911, what's your emergency?

• 21:30Speaker 07

  Please help us, they're everywhere.

  Question six, the topic is cooking. This sporty word refers to the process where shallow cuts are made into the fat of a duck breast before cooking.

• 23:12Speaker 05

  Max has it. Nate has it. Corey thought it looked like he maybe had it. Okay, yeah, just bluffing me. This sporty word refers to the process where shallow cuts are made into the fat of a duck breast before cooking. Laura is clapping her hands. You have this one right, Laura? I do. She's gonna keep her lead going into question seven.

• 23:37Speaker 05

  Omar, blank whiteboard. Yanni, blank whiteboard.

• 23:40Speaker 06

  Oh, I know it. It's there, it is just not, doesn't want to come out right now.

• 23:45Speaker 05

  Corey, did you find the answer?

• 23:47Speaker 06

  I dug deep and it was there.

• 23:48Speaker 05

  Okay, Reva, do you have the answer? All right, so we're waiting on Omar and Yanni.

• 23:53Speaker 07

  I've never done this before.

• 23:55Speaker 05

  Oh, and Yanni thinks he has it. It's down to Omar and his blank whiteboard. This sporty word refers to the process where shallow cuts are made.

• 24:04Speaker 04

  Sorry, Spencer, you keep it in your board in front of the camera.

• 24:06Speaker 06

  Oh, sorry. I just want to show everyone my answer.

• 24:08Speaker 04

  Oh, and they can see it. I really like the artwork as well.

• 24:11Speaker 05

  This sporty word refers to the process where shallow cuts are made into the fat of a duck breast before cooking. Omar, are you ready?

• 24:21Speaker 06

  No answer.

• 24:22Speaker 05

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have the whole room, except Omar, saying, scoring, they got it. The correct answer is score or scoring. To score a duck breast, you should make crosshatch cuts through the fat without penetrating the meat. This creates channels that help render the fat and form a crispy skin. For more on this process, go read Danielle Pruitt's article on the meat eater.com called "How to Cook the Perfect Duck Breast." It has a perfect five-star rating on our website.

• 24:53Speaker 06

  It really does make a difference.

• 24:54Speaker 05

  Yeah. Question seven, the topic is fishing. This next great question is via Tedra Bean. Worf and pier are synonyms for this five-letter word that's defined as, quote, "a structure extended into a sea, lake, or river to influence the current or tide, or to protect a harbor."

• 25:20Speaker 05

  Oh. Five-letter word. Worf and pier are synonyms for this five-letter word that's defined as, "a structure extended into a sea, lake, or river to influence the current or tide, or to protect a harbor." It does not look like anybody has an answer yet.

• 25:43Speaker 05

  Max has done a lot of writing and erasing.

• 25:45Speaker 06

  I got a five-letter word.

• 25:46Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 25:50Speaker 05

  Reva, do you have this one right? Okay, Reva's nodding that she has it. Laura has now joined her with an answer that she thinks is correct.

• 26:00Speaker 07

  You spelled it wrong.

• 26:01Speaker 05

  Max, what are the odds you have this one right?

• 26:03Speaker 06

  Oh, man, I feel pretty good about this, you know?

• 26:05Speaker 05

  All right. Max, Reva, and Laura all seem to have it. The rest of the room does not.

• 26:12Speaker 06

  They're laughing like it's a funny word.

• 26:15Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 26:15Speaker 07

  She spelled it the most unique fashion.

• 26:17Speaker 05

  Oh, all right.

• 26:18Speaker 07

  And then changed it to even worse spelling.

• 26:21Speaker 05

  All right.

• 26:22Speaker 06

  That makes me question my answer. That's a hot tip. Yeah.

• 26:25Speaker 05

  Max, you're blocking the camera.

• 26:26Speaker 06

  I'm just gonna put it out.

• 26:28Speaker 04

  You're just giving the audience a sneak peek, which is fun.

• 26:30Speaker 05

  Worf and pier are synonyms for this five-letter word that's defined as, "a structure extended into a sea, lake, or river to influence the current or tide, or to protect a harbor."

• 26:45Speaker 06

  Well, Phil, given my history, I don't know if the viewers should trust my answers, really, so.

• 26:50Speaker 04

  I will tell them that in this case, they shouldn't.

• 26:52Speaker 06

  Yeah, no.

• 26:52Speaker 05

  Oh, all right.

• 26:54Speaker 06

  No.

• 26:55Speaker 05

  Don't change that answer.

• 26:56Speaker 06

  I just don't want to.

• 26:57Speaker 05

  Nate, do you have this one right?

• 26:59Speaker 04

  No, I'm gonna hear it and be so sad.

• 27:00Speaker 05

  Yanni, do you have this one right?

• 27:02Speaker 06

  Yes.

• 27:03Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 27:04Speaker 06

  Well, as long as Laura has it right. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Whoa.

• 27:09Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 27:10Speaker 04

  Okay, I think I got it. I think I pulled it out.

• 27:12Speaker 07

  Is it five letters?

• 27:12Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah.

• 27:13Speaker 05

  Is everybody ready?

• 27:14Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 27:14Speaker 05

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have Yanni saying jetty, Laura, jetty, Reva, jetty, Omar without an answer, Corey, point, Nate, jetty, Max, breach.

• 27:27Speaker 06

  Break.

• 27:27Speaker 05

  Break. The correct answer is jetty.

• 27:31Speaker 06

  Ayo.

• 27:32Speaker 05

  This side of the table.

• 27:34Speaker 06

  Like a seawall. Seawall break.

• 27:36Speaker 04

  Pulled that out at the last second.

• 27:38Speaker 05

  Humans have been making jetties for thousands of years with the planet's oldest-known one located on the Red Sea. It was built by the Egyptians while they were also constructing the pyramids. That limestone jetty extends hundreds of feet into the water and served as a sheltered boat basin. Here is an overhead picture of that jetty. 4,500 years old. It's the oldest one that they know about on the planet. All right, we are on to question eight.

• 28:09Speaker 04

  Egyptians, always getting into things.

• 28:10Speaker 05

  The topic is woodsmanship. This is our listener question of the week, which was won by William Riddle for sending this great question. William 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@themead eater.com. This homophone refers to the organic material and soil made from decayed plant and animal matter and a Middle Eastern dip.

• 28:40Speaker 05

  Max and Nate both quick to answer.

• 28:42Speaker 04

  Had some this last night.

• 28:43Speaker 05

  Okay. If you know Nate's diet, that could help you here. This homophone refers to the organic material and soil made from decayed plant and animal matter and a Middle Eastern dip.

• 28:58Speaker 06

  Can you remind me what homophone means?

• 29:00Speaker 05

  I cannot remind you. If another player in the room would like to remind you, they could, but I would say they maybe don't, yeah.

• 29:06Speaker 06

  I'm sure for Big W on this game. Oh, geez, you guys.

• 29:14Speaker 05

  Why don't you tell us what you think it means?

• 29:18Speaker 04

  We should make a jabroni handshake.

• 29:21Speaker 06

  What?

• 29:21Speaker 04

  When the non-jabronis don't know something and we do. It's like when in volleyball, you ace them, you know?

• 29:28Speaker 05

  Ace, ace in your face.

• 29:29Speaker 04

  Something like that, but for us.

• 29:30Speaker 06

  So this is edible? You ate it last night?

• 29:35Speaker 05

  This homophone refers to the organic material and soil made from decayed plant and animal matter and a Middle Eastern dip. Maxwell says he's also recently eaten this. So if you know.

• 29:50Speaker 06

  Sorry, I gotta stop doing that.

• 29:51Speaker 05

  The dining habits.

• 29:52Speaker 06

  Especially if I do it on purpose.

• 29:53Speaker 05

  Max or Nate, that could help you.

• 29:56Speaker 06

  The listeners are probably gonna write in and just curse me.

• 29:59Speaker 05

  Corey, do you have this one?

• 30:00Speaker 06

  I don't think so, man. I got a pretty yummy dip written down.

• 30:03Speaker 05

  Okay. Omar, do you have this one?

• 30:05Speaker 06

  I'm on the same boat as Corey.

• 30:07Speaker 05

  Reva?

• 30:08Speaker 03

  There's a chance.

• 30:10Speaker 05

  Laura?

• 30:10Speaker 07

  Always a chance. Chance.

• 30:12Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 30:14Speaker 05

  Yanni, still have a blank whiteboard? Or do you have an answer?

• 30:17Speaker 06

  Phil, blank. How much time do I have?

• 30:19Speaker 05

  Not much more. The rest of the room is ready.

• 30:22Speaker 06

  You think Jennifer knows this one? Oh, for sure. For sure.

• 30:27Speaker 05

  This homophone refers to the organic material and soil made from decayed plant and animal matter and a Middle Eastern dip.

• 30:36Speaker 07

  I hope we're right.

• 30:37Speaker 04

  Oh, we're right.

• 30:38Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 30:39Speaker 04

  Guaranteed.

• 30:40Speaker 06

  Really?

• 30:43Speaker 04

  Yeah. Nothing like guaranteed.

• 30:46Speaker 05

  You need to give up or come up with an answer.

• 30:50Speaker 05

  Go ahead and reveal your answer. Yanni says hummus.

• 30:53Speaker 06

  Let's go.

• 30:54Speaker 05

  Laura and Riva and Omar, the whole room says hummus. The whole room got it right. The correct answer is hummus.

• 31:02Speaker 04

  A lot of stress there. Seven way tie.

• 31:04Speaker 05

  The soil hummus is spelled with one M and the chickpea hummus is spelled with two Ms. The one M version is created when microorganisms fully decompose dead things. It is the anchor of healthy soil, storing vital nutrients, holding massive amounts of water, and housing beneficial microbes. All right, Phil, give us a scoreboard.

• 31:24Speaker 06

  Is that the one where you can read it the same way?

• 31:27Speaker 05

  Spelled two different ways, like having three byes or three twos or here and here.

• 31:32Speaker 06

  What's it called when you can read it forward and backward?

• 31:35Speaker 04

  Oh, no, you're thinking of a... Like NASCAR? Oh. It's like a palindrome. Palindrome. Race car. Race car.

• 31:43Speaker 05

  Taco cat.

• 31:46Speaker 04

  Laura knew what I meant.

• 31:48Speaker 05

  All right, Phil, two questions left.

• 31:49Speaker 04

  Uh, the seven way tie is broken.

• 31:53Speaker 04

  But we do have a four way tie in first place between Yannis, Laura, Riva, and Nate. They all have six points. Behind them are Max and Cory with five. Omar has four. I've heard people call it a grand travally.

• 32:05Speaker 05

  Way to go ladies.

• 32:07Speaker 04

  We should take five minutes.

• 32:08Speaker 05

  You know what? I could look it up.

• 32:10Speaker 04

  We should look it up.

• 32:11Speaker 06

  Riva had a really strong game last time I was in here.

• 32:14Speaker 07

  Did I?

• 32:15Speaker 06

  Yeah, I think he almost won. Didn't Riva almost win when we were in here last time?

• 32:21Speaker 05

  Brianna.

• 32:22Speaker 06

  Oh, Brianna, sorry, Riva.

• 32:24Speaker 05

  All right, we're on to question nine. The topic is hunting.

• 32:28Speaker 04

  Come on, ducks, ducks, ducks.

• 32:29Speaker 05

  This publication with a redundant name was North America's first whitetail specific magazine, which was founded in Wisconsin in 1977.

• 32:43Speaker 05

  The room is stumped.

• 32:44Speaker 06

  A redundant name.

• 32:46Speaker 05

  This publication with a redundant name was North America's first whitetail specific magazine, which was founded in Wisconsin in 1977.

• 32:56Speaker 04

  This is when Spencer's like, oh, here you go, Yanni. Take the game. Yeah, Wisconsin. Let me show you some Wisconsin. An old man from Wisconsin? Let me make a question for him.

• 33:06Speaker 06

  Geez, that's a low blow there, bud.

• 33:11Speaker 04

  Yanni, if I pitch a meat eater show called Sleeveless and Afraid, would you do?

• 33:17Speaker 06

  Sure, I'd host it.

• 33:18Speaker 04

  Great.

• 33:20Speaker 05

  Yanni, do you have this one right?

• 33:22Speaker 06

  I believe so.

• 33:23Speaker 05

  This publication with a redundant name was North America's first whitetail specific magazine, which was founded in Wisconsin in 1977.

• 33:33Speaker 06

  Is it still being, uh, published?

• 33:39Speaker 05

  Going to help you there.

• 33:40Speaker 06

  If it is, I'm going to subscribe today.

• 33:43Speaker 05

  Okay, wow. It'd help Yanni get that victory. You might have a one point lead after this.

• 33:50Speaker 06

  Maybe.

• 33:53Speaker 05

  Publication with a redundant name. Laura just came up with an answer. Is it the right answer?

• 34:00Speaker 07

  Sure is not.

• 34:01Speaker 05

  Okay. How about you, Omar? Do you have this one?

• 34:03Speaker 06

  I don't think so, but I've been wrong before.

• 34:08Speaker 07

  You've been right before too.

• 34:09Speaker 06

  I've been right before too.

• 34:10Speaker 07

  You've been wrong about being right too.

• 34:11Speaker 06

  Exactly, that's what I meant.

• 34:12Speaker 05

  Is everybody ready?

• 34:13Speaker 06

  Hold on.

• 34:14Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 34:19Speaker 05

  Waiting on Cory?

• 34:20Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 34:21Speaker 07

  Maybe.

• 34:23Speaker 05

  This publication with a redundant name was North America's first whitetail specific magazine, which was founded in Wisconsin in 1977. Oh, Nate doing a quick answer change.

• 34:37Speaker 04

  I'm changing strategy from just a joke to a... That's a good start.

• 34:41Speaker 05

  Go ahead and reveal your answers. Yanni, deer and deer hunting. Laura, whitetail bucks.

• 34:47Speaker 04

  That's good, Riva.

• 34:48Speaker 05

  Riva, deer deer, uh, using the homophone. Omar, field and stream. Cory, hunt and hunt magazine. Nate, field and stream. Max, big giant whitetails. Yanni got it. The correct answer is deer and deer hunting.

• 35:06Speaker 05

  The brand began in 1973 as stump sitters, then became deer and deer hunting in 1977. The name reflects the magazine's focus on the animal and the tactics used to pursue it. Pat Durkin estimates that he wrote more than 150 articles for deer and deer hunting in the 1990s.

• 35:24Speaker 04

  I like the name stump sitter.

• 35:26Speaker 05

  That was, that was a good name. Maybe a better name. I think they are still in publication, Yanni, so you owe them a subscription now. All right, here's a correct answer review so far. One was hound, two, naked and afraid, three, Florida, four, husk varna, five, giant travalli, six, score, seven, jetty, eight, hummus, nine, deer and deer hunting. Phil, scoreboard.

• 35:51Speaker 04

  Yannis has pulled ahead. He has seven points now. Laura, Riva, and Nate are behind him with six.

• 35:58Speaker 05

  Okay, we'll see if we can stump Yanni on question 10. The topic is wildlife. This 10 letter word is defined as, quote, "a class of marine mollusks that includes squids, cuttlefishes, and octopuses."

• 36:17Speaker 05

  A 10 letter word.

• 36:19Speaker 06

  You got it?

• 36:20Speaker 05

  Defined as a class of marine mollusks that includes squids, cuttlefishes, and octopuses. We have been in a drought for overtime lately. If Nate can get this right...

• 36:33Speaker 06

  Oh, I got it right.

• 36:34Speaker 05

  Or Laura could get this right, and Yanni could get this wrong. Yanni has a grin though. It seems like he knows it's...

• 36:41Speaker 06

  A word just popped in there and I wrote it down and it has 10 letters. But I don't, I don't know.

• 36:49Speaker 05

  Have secured the victory.

• 36:51Speaker 06

  You might just get a real good chuckle out of what I wrote down.

• 36:54Speaker 05

  Laura and Riva in second place right now, fighting for that tiebreaker. Do either of you have it?

• 37:00Speaker 07

  No.

• 37:00Speaker 05

  No.

• 37:01Speaker 07

  I don't think so.

• 37:02Speaker 05

  10 letter word is defined as a class of marine mollusks that includes squids, cuttlefishes, and octopuses.

• 37:10Speaker 06

  Speaking of octopuses, we should check in with Steve and see if he's caught any octopuses.

• 37:15Speaker 05

  Is he not home yet? I thought he was back.

• 37:17Speaker 06

  Was he already back?

• 37:18Speaker 04

  I don't think so.

• 37:19Speaker 05

  I don't know.

• 37:20Speaker 04

  I don't know if Seth's still up there.

• 37:21Speaker 05

  Oh, okay. Then, no, he's not back.

• 37:26Speaker 04

  Cuttlefish.

• 37:26Speaker 06

  Would the sunfish also fall in this category?

• 37:29Speaker 04

  Depends what kind of sunfish you're talking about.

• 37:31Speaker 06

  Ooh, the only sunfish, those big cool ones.

• 37:34Speaker 04

  No, there's bluegills.

• 37:36Speaker 06

  Oh.

• 37:36Speaker 04

  Panfish. Those are my sunfish.

• 37:40Speaker 04

  Watch your mouth.

• 37:43Speaker 04

  Kid friendly show.

• 37:46Speaker 05

  Nate raises, uh, his child to meat eater trivia.

• 37:51Speaker 05

  Is everybody ready?

• 37:52Speaker 04

  Ah, yeah, that's good. Baker and I listen to all the podcasts together at 3 a.m.

• 37:56Speaker 05

  Good company, man. Go ahead and reveal your answers. Yanni says cephalopod. Laura, invertebrate. Riva, uh, squish, squish.

• 38:09Speaker 04

  Sorry, gosh dang it.

• 38:10Speaker 05

  Omar without an answer, Cory without an answer, Nate, cephalopod, Max without an answer. The correct answer is cephalopod.

• 38:18Speaker 06

  Good job.

• 38:19Speaker 05

  Cephalopod is a Greek word that means head foot, which refers to how their head is directly connected to their mini arms. Other things that make cephalopods unique is that they have three hearts, blue blood, and one of the animal kingdom's most complex brains.

• 38:36Speaker 06

  Blue blood?

• 38:37Speaker 05

  Blue blood. All right, that makes Yanni today's winner. He got eight correct answers.

• 38:43Speaker 06

  Thank you.

• 38:44Speaker 05

  He gets to choose with a $500 donation from Meat Eater Goes. Yanni, what's it gonna be?

• 38:48Speaker 06

  It's been a while.

• 38:50Speaker 05

  He's, uh, rifling through his phone.

• 38:52Speaker 04

  Other people.

• 38:53Speaker 05

  Trying to figure out who he's gonna donate that money to.

• 38:57Speaker 04

  Three years, maybe four years.

• 39:01Speaker 06

  Let's give it to the, uh, Montana Wilderness School.

• 39:04Speaker 05

  Montana Wilderness School. Yanni, a big supporter of theirs.

• 39:07Speaker 06

  I like Montana Wilderness School, yep.

• 39:09Speaker 05

  Do you have children still involved there?

• 39:11Speaker 06

  Uh, my children have never been involved. Uh, we, um, just have a busy summer schedule with other things, but, uh, I encourage anybody that, you know, would like to get into something, you know, the name implies what it is and to get your kids out there and, um, they have a lot of, uh, uh, grants and, um, uh, what's the other word I'm looking for? Scholarship, uh, money. So it's, they, they make it accessible.

• 39:38Speaker 05

  $500 going their way. Yanni beats the other six players for having a seven way tie.

• 39:45Speaker 04

  Thanks, Yanni.

• 39:46Speaker 06

  It was a fun game.

• 39:47Speaker 05

  Join us next week for more Meat Eater trivia, the only game show where conservation always wins.

• 39:51Speaker 06

  Thanks, Spencer.

• 39:52Speaker 04

  Yeah, Spencer from South Dakota, he's the host. Using those smooth mellow tones, he lays them questions down.

• 40:05Speaker 04

  And he likes taking those two and three year old bucks.

• 40:10Speaker 04

  And he's an avid amateur. Rock howl.

• 41:02Speaker 02

  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.

  We know kids don't hold back, and I wouldn't want them to. Get in there, make a mess, slide for home, bring on the stains. I've got OxiClean Versatile Stain Remover. It works on over 100 stains and it's America's number one stain fighter additive brand. It's color safe and chlorine free. So I use it on whites, colors, and dark fabrics. And OxiClean isn't just for laundry. Mix it with water for use all around the house, kitchens, bathrooms, and even floors. When my kids go all in, I say go for it because I've got OxiClean to get the stains out. It's not clean unless it's OxiClean. This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed Human.
