Speaker 1: This podcast.
Speaker 2: Welcome to Meet Eater Trivia, the only game show where
Speaker 2: conservation always wins. I'm your host, Spencer new Arth, and
Speaker 2: today we're joined by Steve Giannis, cal Randall, Brody and Seth.
Speaker 2: This is episode two of the twenty twenty four Meat
Speaker 2: Eater Trivia Championship. This championship will span three episodes. Whoever
Speaker 2: has the most points after thirty questions will be declared
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty four Meat Eater Trivia Champion. So if
Speaker 2: you're behind on the show, pause this one and go
Speaker 2: back and listen to last week's episode. All right, everybody's
Speaker 2: caught up now the entire episode. The entire championship is
Speaker 2: sponsored by Athletic Brewing, who will be matching Meat Eater's
Speaker 2: donation and sponsoring three moneyball questions. The winner will get
Speaker 2: to choose where the three thousand dollars donation goes, the
Speaker 2: biggest dollar in Meat Eater Trivia history, and combining the
Speaker 2: moneyball questions, this year's championship has a donation potential of
Speaker 2: four thousand, two hundred dollars. I feel like it kind
Speaker 2: of looked from this episode two is a tough start.
Speaker 3: We've had.
Speaker 2: Brody bump the camera and Phil has had to readjust
Speaker 2: it now. There are no stats, I, FAQs or housekeeping
Speaker 2: this week, but we will get a scoreboard update from
Speaker 2: Phil the engineer. Phil, what does the leader board look
Speaker 2: like after round one of the championship.
Speaker 4: Let's pull it up here.
Speaker 5: We are Seth Morris has five points, Giannis Putellis has six,
Speaker 5: Ryan Callahan and Stephen Ronella have seven points apiece. Brodie
Speaker 5: Henderson has eight, and Randall Williams is in first place
Speaker 5: with nine points.
Speaker 2: We had some long faces after round one, but I
Speaker 2: remind everyone that this game could change very quickly. Last
Speaker 2: year Randall only got four right in round one, but
Speaker 2: got nine in round two to give Stephen Brody a scare. Also,
Speaker 2: last year, Brody went into Game two with a one
Speaker 2: point lead on Steve, just for Steve to end up
Speaker 2: winning by one. So everyone still has a chance.
Speaker 3: Remember that, Oh yeah, I forgot.
Speaker 6: I remember getting those nine points and thinking we shouldn't
Speaker 6: have done this whole cumulative thing.
Speaker 2: It'd have been amazing if you would have gotten a
Speaker 2: perfect game and still lost.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that would have been amazing.
Speaker 2: Be fun, all right, Besides getting to make the biggest
Speaker 2: donation and media to trivia history. The winner will get
Speaker 2: their name on our twenty on our Meat Eater Trivia
Speaker 2: Champion plaque that hangs in the studio. Brody has the
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two winner plaque. Steve has the twenty twenty
Speaker 2: three winner plaque. Like so long ago, they're the only
Speaker 2: names on the trophy, which was made by our late
Speaker 2: friend Ed Newman's. This is what you boys are competing for,
Speaker 2: and since we want more traffic to see this, we
Speaker 2: got to think of a better place to hang this.
Speaker 4: You could call it Newman's own plaque.
Speaker 6: Do you get to choose the totem that goes by
Speaker 6: your name?
Speaker 2: Well, that was all created prior to Randall joining the company,
Speaker 2: and everyone had a little avatar signed to them, So
Speaker 2: what would yours be? Randall? This isn't bad luck or anything.
Speaker 2: A catfish A catfish?
Speaker 6: Okay, very there a reason for that just sort of
Speaker 6: matches my general esthetic.
Speaker 3: I think.
Speaker 2: The Shelby in Expert today is a four, so our
Speaker 2: winner should get eight correct answers. With that, we've made
Speaker 2: it through the intro to Steve stayed true to declared
Speaker 2: he's going to be quiet this episode. You could write
Speaker 2: stuff to communicate he's just going to open his athletic
Speaker 2: brewing beers loudly, slurp loudly, right loudly, but he won't talk.
Speaker 4: Would you be a pre or post spawn catfish? Randall?
Speaker 6: I hadn't really given it much thought.
Speaker 2: He'd be a pre spawn one who's got a lumpy
Speaker 2: head on him. There's a channel cat they'll get a
Speaker 2: really lumpy head right when they're like in that last
Speaker 2: week of spawning, and it confuses a lot of people
Speaker 2: thinking they caught a blue catfish because it alters their
Speaker 2: appearance so much. That can be you, Randall, pre spawn,
Speaker 2: lumpy headed channel catfish.
Speaker 4: That's great. Yeah, job Spencer, big kind of redeemed yourself
Speaker 4: from last ye colored.
Speaker 2: And with that, we're under Round two of the Championship.
Speaker 2: Play the drop bill. Look, I need to know what
Speaker 2: I stand to win everything?
Speaker 3: How's that you just tend to win everything?
Speaker 2: Gamon Suckers Round two Question two? Excuse me? Question one
Speaker 2: of round two? This question eleven. The topic is hunting
Speaker 2: and this will be multiple choice. This first great question
Speaker 2: is via Joe Singwald. What state is the pop and
Speaker 2: Young headquarters? Is it Indiana, Texas, Minnesota or Tennessee? What
Speaker 2: state is the pop and Young Headquarters? Indiana, tech Sis, Minnesota, Tennessee.
Speaker 2: Nobody looks real confident in their answer, Seth, do you
Speaker 2: know this one? Or are you just guessing?
Speaker 4: I just guess?
Speaker 2: What state is the pop and Young Headquarters Indiana, Texas,
Speaker 2: Minnesota or Tennessee. The room looks stumped. Start now with
Speaker 2: a bad energy this round. Maybe we need Steve to
Speaker 2: talk a little. You got any words in you, Steve?
Speaker 6: No, if this was a multiple choice I wouldn't have
Speaker 6: guessed any of these.
Speaker 2: Okay, just put that out there. Well, that's what I often.
Speaker 2: I often reserved the first question, the multiple choice question,
Speaker 2: for one that you wouldn't have a shot at for
Speaker 2: filling in the blank. So what state is the Pope
Speaker 2: and Young Headquarters? Indiana, Texas, Minnesota, Tennessee? Is everybody ready?
Speaker 2: Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have set and
Speaker 2: Yannis saying Indiana. Randall says Texas, cal says Indiana, Steve
Speaker 2: says Indiana, Brody says Indiana.
Speaker 3: Nobody got it, Tennessee.
Speaker 2: The correct answer is Minnesota.
Speaker 3: Got I's gonna be so mad.
Speaker 6: If it was Indiana.
Speaker 2: Pope and Young HQ is in Chatfield which is about
Speaker 2: ninety minutes southeast of Minneapolis. The population three thousand. Town
Speaker 2: was home to the Pope and Young Museum, but it
Speaker 2: was announced in twenty twenty one that it would move
Speaker 2: most of its artifacts to the Wonders of Wildlife National
Speaker 2: Museum in Springfield, Missouri.
Speaker 4: I feel like you're going Missouri, That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 6: Don't do they do their banquet there?
Speaker 2: They might? Yeah, Missouri was not an option. Like I said,
Speaker 2: They've moved most of their museum's artifacts there, but the
Speaker 2: headquarters is still in Minnesota. I feel like your strategy
Speaker 2: on question one, the multi choice one, has changed over time.
Speaker 2: I feel like you're charge people out with an easy one. Mm. Well,
Speaker 2: this is the tournament, Brody. We're going to make our
Speaker 2: winner earn it. In twenty twenty, I.
Speaker 4: Cooked dinner in a coulter wall last night and still
Speaker 4: didn't guess Saskatchewan kissed me off so much.
Speaker 2: Question to the topic is conservation. The USGS uses this
Speaker 2: nine letter word to describe, quote, animals and plants that
Speaker 2: are in decline and may be in danger of extinction.
Speaker 2: The USGS uses this nine letter word to describe plants
Speaker 2: and animals that are in decline and may be in
Speaker 2: danger of extinction. See a lot of hangman and erasing
Speaker 2: happening for our six competitors. No one seems to have
Speaker 2: nailed down the answer quite yet. The USGS uses this
Speaker 2: nine letter word to describe animals and plants that are
Speaker 2: in decline and may be in danger of extinction. Steve,
Speaker 2: do you have this one?
Speaker 3: Unclear?
Speaker 2: Unclear? Okay? You got a nine letter word though?
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, I don't know if I know the answer.
Speaker 4: If I had changed the answer to conform to letters.
Speaker 2: Nine letters, that's what happened to me.
Speaker 3: If you want to know the truth.
Speaker 2: Okay, you we cried it out of This is a
Speaker 2: direct quote from the us ES animals and plants that
Speaker 2: are in decline and may be in danger of extinction. Seth,
Speaker 2: how do you feel all your ants?
Speaker 3: Yeah? If you hadn't given that little letter Q deal
Speaker 3: after this?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 3: Uh, I would have put the wrong answer down, all right.
Speaker 4: I threw down an answer and then counted afterwards, and
Speaker 4: it worked out.
Speaker 2: Okay, probably still smell wrong though.
Speaker 3: That's that's where it gets you.
Speaker 2: Nine letter word used to describe animals and plants that
Speaker 2: are in decline and may be in danger of extinction, Randall,
Speaker 2: do you have this one right?
Speaker 6: I got a nine letter word?
Speaker 2: Okay, Man, may have a good portion of our players
Speaker 2: starting zero for two in round two.
Speaker 3: That'd be fantastic.
Speaker 2: Animals and plants that are in decline and maybe in
Speaker 2: danger of extinction. Do you boys give up who don't
Speaker 2: have an answer?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: I need thirty seconds.
Speaker 2: Thirty seconds. It's a big ask. Yes, maybe Steve can
Speaker 2: fill in some of the silence. No, he won't do it,
Speaker 2: shaking his head.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 2: If you got a question, Yanni, animals and plants that
Speaker 2: are in decline and may be in danger of extinction.
Speaker 3: Let's just get out of it, Man.
Speaker 2: De tuck. We needed some us.
Speaker 3: Putting something down.
Speaker 4: You know, I'm helping with a fundraiser for the lesser
Speaker 4: Prairie Chicken. It's kind of like the poster Child or
Speaker 4: uh m, and both of those things are our big
Speaker 4: time in.
Speaker 2: Do you have this one right?
Speaker 3: Cal?
Speaker 4: I hope so, but I'm unsure of myself.
Speaker 2: Yanni, I think you're out of time. Go ahead and
Speaker 2: reveal your answers. We have set saying threatened Giannis without
Speaker 2: an answer, Randall says imperiled. Cal says threatened.
Speaker 3: Like cal spelled it wrong to make it not.
Speaker 2: Already counted wrong, Steve says imperiled and proty without an answer.
Speaker 2: The correct answer is imperiled. Steve and Randall got that
Speaker 2: one right. The USGS uses to describe at risk plants
Speaker 2: and animals. Any animal that's listed as endangered, threatened, or
Speaker 2: vulnerable can be considered imperiled. In the United States, there
Speaker 2: are about fifteen hundred species that are imperiled.
Speaker 6: You had a lot of words I wanted to use
Speaker 6: that had ten letters.
Speaker 2: Vulnerable, threatened, threatened, dangered. I think those are all ten
Speaker 2: letter words. Question three, The topic is fishing, because.
Speaker 4: The i U c M goes threatened and danger, doesn't
Speaker 4: it species the least concerned.
Speaker 2: And imperiled is just a sort of a catch all
Speaker 2: term for everything that's listed. And you said who's according
Speaker 2: to who's he likes the question? Question three, The topic
Speaker 2: is fishing. This word is both an immature insect and
Speaker 2: a female deity in Greek mythology. Co this what's topic fishing?
Speaker 2: This word is both an immature insect in a female
Speaker 2: deity in Greek mythology. Steve and Brody quick to answer,
Speaker 2: Yanni Randall and Seth now joining them his question three.
Speaker 3: Thought I could tell Randall's gassy or couldn't think of it?
Speaker 6: My lips fluttering in the breeze.
Speaker 7: Once you determined, Steve gas right. This word Belgia. This
Speaker 7: word is both an immature insect and a female deity
Speaker 7: in Greek mythology. Brody, going back to his whiteboard after
Speaker 7: being the first person to write his answer, cal, do
Speaker 7: you have this one right?
Speaker 2: I don't know, Okay, I would hope Brody, are you
Speaker 2: ready sure? Go ahead and reveal your answers. We have
Speaker 2: Seth and the Honest and Randolin Cow and Steven Brody
Speaker 2: saying nymph they got it. The correct answer is nymph.
Speaker 2: A nymph is a juvenile form of aquatic insects that
Speaker 2: fly anglers often try to imitate. In Greek mythology, nymphs
Speaker 2: are a large class of female deities that are often
Speaker 2: associated with trees and water. These natured goddesses preside over
Speaker 2: natural features such as beaches, meadows, caves, and clouds. Question four,
Speaker 2: the topic is woodsmanship. This is our Athletic Brewing money
Speaker 2: money Ball question of the week. For every correct answer provided,
Speaker 2: Athletic Brewing is going to make a one hundred dollars
Speaker 2: donation that's capped at five hundred dollars. This week, Athletic
Speaker 2: Brewing is giving to the National National Wild Turkey Federation.
Speaker 2: Here is your moneyball question. Mountain Hood is the tallest
Speaker 2: mountain in this state. Another moneyball question for NWTF. Last
Speaker 2: week we had two hundred dollars that went to them.
Speaker 2: See if we can up that this week to the
Speaker 2: capped amount of five hundred. Mounta Hood is the tallest
Speaker 2: mountain in this state. Brody, Steve Randelliani all have answer, Seth.
Speaker 2: Do you have this one right?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe maybe.
Speaker 6: I hope you do for the sake of the National
Speaker 6: Wild Turkey Federation.
Speaker 2: That's right, Yes, only one of you can get it wrong,
Speaker 2: so we can get that five hundred dollars donation from
Speaker 2: Athletic to them. Cal, how are we doing down there?
Speaker 4: Margrad?
Speaker 2: Mount Hood is the tallest mountain in this state.
Speaker 4: But if everybody's got an answer, ready to rock.
Speaker 2: You ready go ahead and reveal your answers. We have
Speaker 2: Seth saying New Hampshire. Giannis says Orges, Randall says.
Speaker 3: Or away from the truth. That's Mount Washington.
Speaker 2: Cal says Washington Steve says Oregon. Brody says Oregon.
Speaker 3: Shit.
Speaker 2: The correct answer is Oregon, meaning we're making a four
Speaker 2: hundred dollars donation. NWTF Athletic is making the four hundred
Speaker 2: dollars donation take care of our partners. At eleven forty
Speaker 2: nine feet in elevation, it's the fourth tallest mountain in
Speaker 2: the Cascades and the two hundred and eighty fourth tallest
Speaker 2: mountain in the United States. You can see the mountain
Speaker 2: from Portland, which is about fifty miles away. The USGS
Speaker 2: says there's roughly a five percent chance that the volcanoy
Speaker 2: ERPs in the next thirty years.
Speaker 6: Ooh.
Speaker 2: Question five?
Speaker 3: Like that.
Speaker 2: The topic is natural history. That's like the same odds
Speaker 2: as that asteroid hitting in twenty thirty two. I think
Speaker 2: they've been like two point four percent or something. Yeah,
Speaker 2: five percent. If you gave me five percent draws on
Speaker 2: a sheep tag, I'd take.
Speaker 3: Out destroying size. But I think they do. They downed
Speaker 3: it a little bit. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Question five, have you.
Speaker 3: Ever watched that movie Melancholia?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 6: Go on, you ever watched that movie Armagaine?
Speaker 3: Again?
Speaker 4: I don't want to come.
Speaker 3: Great.
Speaker 2: Question five, The topic is natural history. This American island
Speaker 2: was known as the whaling capital of the world in
Speaker 2: the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Randall very quick to answer.
Speaker 2: This American island was known as the whaling capital of
Speaker 2: the world in the eighteenth and nineteenth century. Steve, do
Speaker 2: you have this one right? Yes, gave a grunt.
Speaker 8: I like the kind of questions it I would know
Speaker 8: and Randall wouldn't know. That'ska a good question for me.
Speaker 2: We'll see, we'll see if we got any guy here, No,
Speaker 2: you are letters. Don't be spoiled not giving you any letters.
Speaker 6: It's the most common thing you could possibly associate with
Speaker 6: the topic of whaling.
Speaker 3: Maybe if I got here, I got a real uh clue.
Speaker 4: Okay, give'll just give all the clues you need.
Speaker 2: This American island was known as the whaling capital of
Speaker 2: the world in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. This is
Speaker 2: question fifteen. We'll get a scoreboard update from Fill the
Speaker 2: engineer after this.
Speaker 3: Can you be doing the Meat Eaters American History series?
Speaker 3: We have weighed around.
Speaker 8: And kicked around and decided against, and then re questioned
Speaker 8: and decided against doing one on whaling.
Speaker 2: I just read in Heart of the Sea.
Speaker 4: How many how many how many clues are you going
Speaker 4: to give out here?
Speaker 2: That gives out a hint unless you've.
Speaker 3: That's got my favorite, one of my favorite quotes of
Speaker 3: all time. And oh the book does know him. I
Speaker 3: had him.
Speaker 2: That's a good one. Brody, how are we doing over here?
Speaker 3: We'll find out.
Speaker 2: Okay, everybody ready, go ahead and reveal your answers. I
Speaker 2: have seven of a bitch.
Speaker 3: He scratched around. There was a man from Nantucket.
Speaker 4: That's principal.
Speaker 2: Jannis crossed out Nantucket and put down Long Island. Randall
Speaker 2: says Nantucket. Cal says Nantucket, Steve says Nantucket. Brody says
Speaker 2: Long Island. The correct answer is Nantucket.
Speaker 4: They all wrote it down so fast I thought they
Speaker 4: couldn't write Nantucket.
Speaker 2: Nantucket is located about thirty miles off the coast of Massachusetts.
Speaker 2: During its whaling heyday, the small island community was considered
Speaker 2: the wealthiest place in America. It's estimated that Nantucket whalers
Speaker 2: killed forty thousand sperm whales between sixteen ninety and eighteen seventy.
Speaker 8: The reason we decided not to do Nantucket or not
Speaker 8: to do whaling, because so much of the action is
Speaker 8: out of the youth.
Speaker 3: It's like they're based in the US, but the South
Speaker 3: America and the South Pacific, and you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: So we didn't do it. I'm not fixing to do it.
Speaker 2: Phil. We're halfway through round two. Give us a scoreboard update.
Speaker 3: I could go on other reasons, reasons why it's heating up.
Speaker 5: Unfortunately not for Seth who has six points. But after that,
Speaker 5: Jannis has eight, Cow has nine, Brody has fallen behind Steve.
Speaker 5: He's got ten points. Steve's up ahead of Brody now
Speaker 5: with eleven, and Randall is still in first place. He's
Speaker 5: got a two point lead now with thirteen points and half.
Speaker 2: Point made the champion with a two point lead.
Speaker 3: That's command, dude, terrible.
Speaker 2: We actually drinking athletic because Randall's on number two.
Speaker 3: The possibility of a tie breaker.
Speaker 2: Totally if we do, if we do a tiebreaker, we
Speaker 2: have three tiebreaker questions that we're gonna.
Speaker 8: Because that's what I'll say it like, it seems like
Speaker 8: just to throw it away on one like some.
Speaker 3: Dude saying.
Speaker 2: Question six. The topic is fishing. This next great question
Speaker 2: is via Jeremiah Shearer. This seven letter word describes the
Speaker 2: elongated nose of sawfish, pedalfish, sailfish, and sturgeon.
Speaker 3: Ain't bill.
Speaker 2: This seven letter word describes the elongated nose of sawfish, peddlefish, sailfish,
Speaker 2: and sturgeon. Are players? Do you have.
Speaker 6: It's in there somewhere. I don't have it quite yet.
Speaker 2: I thought this could be he was already a question.
Speaker 2: We have not had this as a question. This could
Speaker 2: be a question though that I thought Steve would get
Speaker 2: right and Randall would get wrong, one of those ones
Speaker 2: he really likes. I got it, has it right? Randall
Speaker 2: declared that he had.
Speaker 6: I think you had it in flavor text somewhere.
Speaker 4: Well, what was your first letter?
Speaker 3: Just out of curiosity?
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, this was ever a question.
Speaker 3: Let no, no, I just ignore what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Seven letter word describes the elongated nose of sawfish, paddlefish, sailfish,
Speaker 2: and sturgeon. Brodie, do you have this one?
Speaker 3: Right? I got seven letters.
Speaker 6: I just feel like this is a word that has
Speaker 6: sunk into my brain in this room.
Speaker 8: Okay, that's very unfair, that's very unfair, into myrd.
Speaker 3: Okay, you you did it. You gave it away when
Speaker 3: I wasn't here. Now he's got it because you gave
Speaker 3: it away.
Speaker 6: I shouldn't have said anything. It's true, you know it.
Speaker 4: I bet that this was a description at some point.
Speaker 2: Maybe it was on a Meteor podcast, not even paddlefish questions.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I mean in Spencer's of Fisheries. Dude, Ye yeah,
Speaker 4: follow the bread crumb, Steve, that's right.
Speaker 2: Still doesn't have an answer. This seven letter word describes
Speaker 2: the elongated a sawfish, paddlefish, salefish, and sturgeon.
Speaker 6: Might have to crack open another thinking juice here taste
Speaker 6: great and burps like the real thing.
Speaker 2: Oh, son of God, Yanni, you may take. You may
Speaker 2: fall too far behind if you don't get this one right.
Speaker 3: Oh, I hear you? Funny more sponser.
Speaker 2: Sad you don't have to come to Episode three?
Speaker 3: Might not seven might contribute to.
Speaker 2: Some Ynniball question. Steve still has a blank whiteboard the money.
Speaker 2: When he hears the answer, his hands are in his head.
Speaker 2: If he's not already really mad, I think we should
Speaker 2: just get on with it, and Randall is in his head.
Speaker 2: Do you give up? Steve could give Randall a three
Speaker 2: point lead.
Speaker 4: He's not exactly in a power stand.
Speaker 2: You give up.
Speaker 3: It's something that I'm gonna be mad.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I feel like you do know it.
Speaker 3: He's gonna break his board.
Speaker 6: Oh, one, two three, don't do that.
Speaker 4: We like you.
Speaker 2: If, if, if Steve gives up, maybe you can give
Speaker 2: him the first letter. He's not you know, won't count
Speaker 2: towards his point. But see if it is up there somewhere, Steve,
Speaker 2: do you give up?
Speaker 3: I just don't. Haven't.
Speaker 2: Okay, give him give him the first letter. Someone and.
Speaker 3: R.
Speaker 4: It's R and it's R.
Speaker 2: Go ahead, answer seth and YACHTI without an answer, Randall
Speaker 2: says rostrum. Cal says nostrum.
Speaker 3: Oh no, oh no, the.
Speaker 2: Nostrum, Steve without an answer. The correct answer is rostrum.

Speaker 2: Midrop stood up out of this chair.
Speaker 8: Rostrum I was I was never gonna get Yeah, just
Speaker 8: knowses man.
Speaker 6: Emotional, I almost collapsed in on myself like a black
Speaker 6: horse dying star.
Speaker 3: There was the disappointment of not knowing.
Speaker 8: There was the elation of realizing that Randall got it wrong.
Speaker 3: Follow you got it right.
Speaker 2: Fish aren't the only animals that have rostrums. They're also
Speaker 2: found on dolphins, lobsters, and crocodiles. The rostrum often serves
Speaker 2: an important.
Speaker 4: Role es such as helping paddlefish with him helping.
Speaker 2: Sailfish stun sardines. That is a rostrum question seven. The
Speaker 2: topic is hunting. This is our listener question of the week,

Speaker 3: Duckweed got foiled.
Speaker 2: The correct answer is duck weed. Duck Weed flowers are
Speaker 2: so small that you need a microscope to view them.
Speaker 2: Despite their tiny size, they still attract pollinators such as
Speaker 2: flies and mites, and, as the name implies, they are
Speaker 2: a notable part of the diet of dabbling ducks and
Speaker 2: diver ducks.

Speaker 2: But I'd like to flex. You could do that anyway.
Speaker 4: No, Oh, I can only think of an author right now.
Speaker 2: Really, I could give a tidbit about the author. I
Speaker 2: don't think i'd be giving anything away. No, you can't
Speaker 2: be talking about the author. That might jar someone's Memorywards.
Speaker 2: This nineteen sixty four children's book, which is about the
Speaker 2: relationship between a boy and a tree, is often used
Speaker 2: to teach environmental ethics. You have this one right.
Speaker 6: I don't know if I like it.
Speaker 2: Okay, see what, I haven't had a lot of children's books.
Speaker 3: Let me get it coming across and change your mind.

Speaker 3: a set.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Brody, you have this one right. I hope I have.
Speaker 2: You've always read this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got this one right.
Speaker 4: I remember discussing this book when we had kids of
Speaker 4: the age that we would read it to.
Speaker 2: And you didn't like it.
Speaker 3: No, don't like it.
Speaker 4: Oh okay, let's Steve, enough with this is Randall's answer

Speaker 2: have saying my side of the mountain, Janna says, the
Speaker 2: giving Tree, Randall, the giving Tree, col the giving Tree,
Speaker 2: Steve the Giving Tree, Brody says, the Loraxe. We have
Speaker 2: had the Loraxe as I question before, but the correct
Speaker 2: answer is the Giving Tree. The Giving Tree has sold
Speaker 2: ten million copies since its debut. It's about a boy
Speaker 2: who takes from nature and what the consequences can be
Speaker 2: when you take too much. A two thousand and seven
Speaker 2: poll of teachers by the National Education Association declared it
Speaker 2: the third greatest children's book of all time. Steve, what
Speaker 2: do you got on the Giving Tree?
Speaker 3: He was a He wrote a lot of big country songs.
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't know that. I know. One of the
Speaker 2: criticisms of the book was that his author picture on
Speaker 2: the back was too terrifying for children. It was black
Speaker 2: and white picture of him, and apparently it's scared off
Speaker 2: kids from.
Speaker 8: Yeah, we put Nashville. He moved to Nashville during the outwalk.
Speaker 8: He wrote like Alice did he write Alice's Restaurant?
Speaker 2: We're putting a lot on the bill there. He wrote
Speaker 2: The Giving Tree Question nine and we're gonna hold off
Speaker 2: on that.
Speaker 4: Books there there was kind of like kind of a copy.
Speaker 2: So I think his artwork was initially also criticized because
Speaker 2: it was too similar to the Playboy artwork, which I
Speaker 2: don't know if he did, if there was someone else,
Speaker 2: but they said this is too adult. Not that it
Speaker 2: had like, you know, adult, it was just drawn like
Speaker 2: too rigid, like it wasn't soft.
Speaker 4: Enough, but to make it more adult.
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's just like it resembled what you'd see.
Speaker 2: Question nine. The topic is cooking. Salty is a synonym
Speaker 2: for this five letter word, which is how Michelin describes
Speaker 2: the taste of Atlantic oysters. Oh, Phil, do you have
Speaker 2: a picture for us?
Speaker 4: I can't shoog right now. I was little screw up
Speaker 4: the slide show, but I'll try to add it.
Speaker 2: To the off on that until the end of his
Speaker 2: other books. Salty is a synonym for.
Speaker 4: This where the sidewalk?
Speaker 2: And and why do you like that book?
Speaker 3: Steve? It's all.
Speaker 2: Question nine. Salty is a synonym for this five letter word.
Speaker 3: Makes you want to kind of kids ass when you're
Speaker 3: reading that book.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's why you know what that was another criticism
Speaker 2: I saw There was like a whole group of children
Speaker 2: surveyed after they read the book, and they're like, he
Speaker 2: never says thank.
Speaker 3: You what you read the book?
Speaker 2: Like that kind of prick yeah, which is how Michelin
Speaker 2: describes the taste of Atlantic oysters.
Speaker 3: You got it, Randall, Yes, there he is right.
Speaker 2: Oh god, that is the author picture on the back
Speaker 2: of the book.
Speaker 3: That dude pulls up.
Speaker 2: It seems like a justified fear.
Speaker 9: It looks like a looks like a clay model that
Speaker 9: they molded over like a Sorry.
Speaker 3: I haven't heard of that one. This is very nice.
Speaker 5: This is very nice, falling up a light in the attic,
Speaker 5: everything on it.
Speaker 3: Take that part out.
Speaker 2: Salty is a synonym for this five letter word. It's
Speaker 2: just how Michelin describes the taste of Atlantic oysters. Joanni,

Speaker 2: He's pretty far behind. No, don't give it okay, Sonny
Speaker 2: says he does.
Speaker 3: For salt, he's going to be another adjective.
Speaker 2: Johanny says he doesn't want it. We're not going to
Speaker 2: give it to him.
Speaker 3: I still want to argue about it.
Speaker 2: The biggest taste difference between East Coast oysters and West
Speaker 2: Coast oysters is that East coast ones tend to be
Speaker 2: more briny. Well, West coast ones tend to be more sweet.

Speaker 2: with a seaweed like finish, while Pacific oysters have a
Speaker 2: deeper cup and a buttery finish.

Speaker 8: you know, like you take one and move him to
Speaker 8: the other side of the planet and his progeny are
Speaker 8: gonna look like him.
Speaker 2: I didn't know that I would have gone that wrong.
Speaker 3: If you're blue muscle, blue muscles or circumpolar, just one.
Speaker 3: I think they tax on almost think it's just one species.
Speaker 4: Good example of something that's defined by its environment versus
Speaker 4: affecting its environment.
