Speaker 1: You're listening to part Time Genius, the production of Kaleidoscope
Speaker 1: and iHeartRadio. Mary gave guess what what's that? So this
Speaker 1: week I was looking up the history of quiz shows
Speaker 1: and apparently the quiz show format really caught on during
Speaker 1: the Great Depression, and it's partially because of the prizes
Speaker 1: and jackpots that were at stake. And this is according
Speaker 1: to American Experience the show on PBS. But by nineteen
Speaker 1: forty fifty quiz shows were on the air, and by
Speaker 1: nineteen forty nine, two hundred different quiz shows had taken root.
Speaker 1: Isn't that insane?
Speaker 2: Two in the United States.
Speaker 1: Yeah, in the United States, like all that was on TV,
Speaker 1: it kind of did replace apparently, like like the Big
Speaker 1: Band shows and other shows like it kind of started
Speaker 1: taking over. But the best part is the name. So
Speaker 1: here are just a few of them. The Asket Basket,
Speaker 1: Colonel Stoopnagel, Uncle Jim, Question Be, Professor Peter Puzzle With,
Speaker 1: and my personal favorite, Doctor Iq, which is not because
Speaker 1: of the name, but because for correct answers, the host
Speaker 1: would drop jingling silver dollars into the hands of winners,
Speaker 1: a sound that could be heard by every radio listener
Speaker 1: isn't that amazing?
Speaker 3: That's amazing. I think I'm a stup nagel man.
Speaker 1: I've always thought that of you. But you're probably wondering
Speaker 1: why I'm telling you this, and it's because I'm surprising
Speaker 1: both of you in studio with the first ever part
Speaker 1: Time Genius pop quiz. So, Gabe, Mary, what do you think?
Speaker 1: Yup for it?
Speaker 2: You know how much I love surprise.

Speaker 1: the same time. I guess. Okay, Okay, So what part
Speaker 1: of New York did Sigmund Freud tell Carl Jung that
Speaker 1: it was the only part of America that interested him?
Speaker 1: And Mary, I'm gonna have you write down the answer
Speaker 1: of my notebook, and then I'm gonna have Gabe answer
Speaker 1: what he thinks it is. Okay, Gabe, what do you
Speaker 1: think it was?
Speaker 3: It Chinatown?
Speaker 1: It was not Chinatown? And Mary wrote Williamsburg's Circle in
Speaker 1: two thousand and three, which I think is also not
Speaker 1: the right answer. It was Coney Island. They actually spent
Speaker 1: a day together at Coney Island and the represented America's it.
Speaker 1: I guess to Sigmund Freud, this is one more that
Speaker 1: I was going to ask you to do the math for,
Speaker 1: and this is called do the math. So the number
Speaker 1: of problems jay Z has in a song plus the
Speaker 1: number of comedians in the kids in the hall, take
Speaker 1: that and divide it by the number of brothers and
Speaker 1: the Jonas brothers plus one bonus Jonas who's the bonus?
Speaker 1: Jonas is the fourth unknown brother?
Speaker 5: Wait, how many kids were in the hub? I can
Speaker 5: picture them, but they're Canadians. They count differently. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 5: don't I'm people.
Speaker 1: Well, we're gonna leave it there. We're gonna take a
Speaker 1: quick break and we'll come back with the answer. Welcome
Speaker 1: back to Part Time Genius, where we're doing our first
Speaker 1: ever part Time Genius pop quiz. So Mary gave we
Speaker 1: left it on a cliffhanger with the math thing, but
Speaker 1: before we get to the answer on that, I think
Speaker 1: this is the part of the show where in old
Speaker 1: quiz show pro like Alec Treebec or Pat Sajak might
Speaker 1: go over to the contestants and make some small talk.
Speaker 1: So Mary, it says on my card here that you're
Speaker 1: from Maine. Moxie the cola was designated the official state
Speaker 1: drink of Maine in two thousand and five, just one
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty nine years after it was invented. How
Speaker 1: much moxie do you drink a week when you're back
Speaker 1: in Maine.
Speaker 5: I don't love soda in general. If I were going
Speaker 5: to drink a soda, moxie is actually really delicious.
Speaker 2: It's bitter. It tastes like dirt.
Speaker 5: And poison, and I really kind of enjoy those flavors.
Speaker 5: I just don't really like carbonated drinks.
Speaker 1: A lot, So if it was flat, you might drink
Speaker 1: it more of flat moxi.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I'll tell you.
Speaker 5: People in certain establishments will mix it with whiskey.
Speaker 2: That's a thing. You can mix moxie and whiskey.
Speaker 5: And I've definitely been to backyard parties where people are
Speaker 5: drinking moxie and whiskey.
Speaker 1: Is there a name for that cocktail?
Speaker 2: No, you can't talk enough to give a name.
Speaker 1: And Gabe, you are from the beautiful eastern coast of Maryland.
Speaker 1: It says here, you're one of the only people I've
Speaker 1: known who's accompanied a modern day milkman on his milk
Speaker 1: delivery in a horse and buggy around town. How did
Speaker 1: the milk taste.
Speaker 3: Delicious, cold, refreshing, rustic. Yeah.
Speaker 1: If you were to designate official state drink for Maryland,
Speaker 1: would milk be it?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: Probably like Old Bay in flat Beer would be a
Speaker 4: big kid that Maryland.
Speaker 2: I think so Flat beverages.
Speaker 1: And this is all about and Old by Yeah, Oby
Speaker 1: is so Maryland.
Speaker 3: And this our episode is sponsored by Old Bay and Moxie.
Speaker 3: I wish to a great taste, to taste great together.
Speaker 1: Okay. So I gave both of you a math problem
Speaker 1: at the end of the last round. It was the
Speaker 1: number of problems jay Z has plus the number of
Speaker 1: comedians and the kids in the hall, divide by the
Speaker 1: brothers and the Jonas brothers plus one bonus Jonas and
Speaker 1: so Gabe, would you get for an answer over there?
Speaker 4: I was doing pretty good until you brought division into it,
Speaker 4: but I came up with twenty six.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, Oh, I wrote forty six. I know,
Speaker 1: I know Mary I can work I will give you
Speaker 1: partial credit.
Speaker 2: I did.
Speaker 5: I did the thing I tell my kid not to do,
Speaker 5: which is I was just doing it in my head. Well,
Speaker 5: and that's how you write down the wrong number.
Speaker 1: He was gonna get a point for Mary. You'll get
Speaker 1: partial credit for showing your work. Okay, So now for
Speaker 1: the next round. This is a stupid game I just
Speaker 1: invented called speedballs, where every answer has the word ball
Speaker 1: in it. Again, Mary is a cat lover. You'll have
Speaker 1: to meeout for this. And Gabe, you have a choice.
Speaker 1: You can continue to ball like a sheep or if
Speaker 1: you'd like to change your animal sound now it's the
Speaker 1: time to change it.
Speaker 3: I'll stick with the sheet.
Speaker 1: Okay, sounds good? Okay. What ball was used to play
Speaker 1: the first game of basketball?
Speaker 3: M Is it a volleyball?
Speaker 1: Nope?
Speaker 2: Meow? It was it like a leather ball.
Speaker 1: It was a soccer ball. Strangely, I thought I actually
Speaker 1: thought it was a volleyball too, but apparently the soccerroll
Speaker 1: what ball was mostly manufactured as white until color television.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be a tennis ball, that's right.
Speaker 1: The original nerf ball was made to play an indoor
Speaker 1: game of what.
Speaker 3: M hm basketball?
Speaker 2: No, wouldn't be tennis again. You wouldn't put tennis twice?
Speaker 3: Can I bat again?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I don't have an answer. I just want to no.
Speaker 1: No, But you can keep naming sports in you. The
Speaker 1: answer is volleyball. The toy company carefully evaluated Inventor's game
Speaker 1: for indoor volleyball and then throughout everything. But the ball
Speaker 1: isn't that amazing?
Speaker 2: Huh?
Speaker 1: What ball game often played in gym class had original
Speaker 1: rules that only called for one base?
Speaker 2: Yeah, dodgeball?
Speaker 1: No, fourteen people could actually be on the base at
Speaker 1: one time. The answer is kickball. I don't think dodgeball
Speaker 1: has a base.
Speaker 5: I don't know. I never participated. I was out in
Speaker 5: the library the whole time.
Speaker 1: What ball was originally made of carved champagne corks?
Speaker 2: Very chic?

Speaker 1: And what ball was fired from a job at a
Speaker 1: drug store when she forgot to put bananas in a
Speaker 1: banana split?
Speaker 2: Yeah that would be Lucille.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's right, Lucille ball. Terrific. So the tally right
Speaker 1: now is nine and a half to marry, and Gabe
Speaker 1: has fifteen because of the enlightening round. Okay, now it's
Speaker 1: time for a multiple choice, and this is again You're
Speaker 1: you're gonna keep the answer in your head and then
Speaker 1: and then we'll go over it. So what name do

Speaker 3: And Gabe, I'm gonna go with the cow.
Speaker 5: That's right, Gabe, Wow, nicely, I wouldn't put a cow
Speaker 5: on stage.
Speaker 2: The whole bowel situation is too unpredictable.
Speaker 1: Well, they wanted to use a live dog on stage,
Speaker 1: and then it was too difficult so they got an
Speaker 1: actor in a cowsuit.
Speaker 2: Oh, I actually thought it was an actual.
Speaker 1: Cow initially.
Speaker 3: Suit.
Speaker 5: Okay, no, no, no, they don't. That would thinking about
Speaker 5: thinking about, you know, staging a production with the cow.
Speaker 2: Okay, person in a cow suit? That better.
Speaker 1: How did President Eisenhower spend his free time? A practicing
Speaker 1: shot put, B, croucheting lamp shades, or C doing paint
Speaker 1: by number artwork?

Speaker 1: You're both right. He exhibited his paintings all over the
Speaker 1: White House and other questionable taste. He also wired the
Speaker 1: White House with musaic. No is that amazing?
Speaker 3: So I really wish it was the lamp shades. But know.
Speaker 1: So you know what that sound means. He tapping on
Speaker 1: a glass means the enlightening round.
Speaker 5: So I'm sorry, that sound means we need a sound
Speaker 5: effects budget.
Speaker 1: That's correct. So Mary, for your questions, you get Crayola
