so great to have you here. You can follow Katherine on social media at
Katherine dot Feenie on Instagram. Catherine, what charity are you playing for?
Today? So? I'm playing for Loyola Law School's Project for the Innocent.
I actually attended Loyala Law School, and fun fact, I am a licensed
attorney myself now, license in the state of New York. I don't practice.
I'm an actor, but while I was in law school I became very
passionate about the idea of you know, people who have been wrongfully convicted,
and Loyola's Project for the Innocent is very active. It's the only wrongful conviction
clinic dedicated to Los Angeles County. So basically, it's a clinic for students
who work to get people who have been wrongfully convicted, people who are imprisoned
who should not be imprisoned out of prison. Many of these people have been
in prison for decades, so it's really you know, when you start to
learn about it, it's obviously very very up setting, but this is a
wonderful clinic, and I think it's very important for students to have this experience
because then they become litigators who now are aware of the issues with pseudoscience that
leads along wrongful convictions, and so it'll be hopefully a better future when we
have attorneys who are more aware of this and also very important to get people
who've been wrongfully convicted out of that position. So yeah, that's what I'm
playing for it or sure, you're happy to make a donation in your name
to the Loyal LA Law Schools Project for the Innocent, Win or Lose.
Now it's time to meet your opponent from Littleton, Colorado. She wrote for
one of my favorite shows ever, The Last Man on Earth, and is

She's at Kalushi with a Y on Instagram. She's not really on X,
but I'll give it anyways. It's at Kira Kalush on X. Kira,
what charity are you playing for today? I am playing for Moms First.
It is an organization that was founded by Reshma Sujohnny, and they're really
great because they not only are campaigning in the governmental sector for like paid leave
and childcare and support for families and moms in particular, but they also like
partner with individual companies to help create plans that can further support working, working
parents and working moms. And beyond that, they also like have all these
different initiatives and programs that help kind of culturally reframe the way that we look
at parenthood and the way that we value parenthood and just how how that can
and change and UH just just in our in our daily lives. Because I'm
a working mom. It's something I'm really proud of. And I really feel
like it's something that makes me better at my job. And like being a
parent makes me better at my job, and being at my job makes me
a better parent. And so I feel like those are things that we kind
of don't talk about. And and and not only that, it's like if
we if we support parents, you know, it also helps like the economically,
so you know, it's it's one of those things that it's it's kind
of thinking about all the different areas of that. And and so I really
like this charity beautiful. Well yeah, yeah, let's let's have a better
and more sustainable work life balance everybody. That will help the kids out,
it'll help the parents out, it'll put more money in the economy. Huh.
That seems like a win win win. Mike Nelton gets it. Well,

great charities they're playing for. But it's time to get back to the game.

her on social media at Katherine dot foene on Instagram. Win or Lose.
We're going to make a donation in her name to the Loyola Law Schools Project
for the Innocent. And we're here with Kira Kalush. You can follow her
on Instagram at Kalushi with a Y and we're happy to make a donation in
her name to Mom's First. We're at halftime, but we're getting ready to
enter around three of four Between you two, it is the infamous round three,
the lightning round, Lightning Round. You are trailing at this moment,
so you can go first. You could choose from these three headings that have
nothing to do with the questions, nor are the answers. We're gonna go
to Sesame Street today and you could choose from either Big Bird, Oscar the
Grouch, or mister snuffle up Agus. Name your poison. I will go
with snuffle up Agus. Snuffy. You're gonna go with Snuffy. That guy
me too, so fun. So I'm gonna say the question twice. I'm
gonna say, go, You're gonna have twenty seconds to just give me as
many answers as possible. Catherine, You're gonna jot some answers down. So
I'm coming straight to you with your five second rebuttal as soon as Kira's twenty
seconds are up. So here is your mister snuffle up a guess lightning round
question. I want to know the last nine first Ladies of the United States
first names. You know their last names already, but the first ladies and
including the current one, the last nine floatus's first names, twenty seconds on
the clock and the go okay, Michelle, Laura, Barbara, Hillary,
Uh uh uh, Eleanor I don't know where she's in time. Uh uh
another Barbara, stop stop? You did great. You got four. You
got four in a row. You got Michelle, Laura, Hillary, and
Barbara. You got four in a row there. So there's still a few
on the board there, Catherine, your five second rebuttal to try and steal
some answers the last nine flotus's first names five seconds and Ago Jill Milania.
I want to say Anne, stop like the caveat. I want to say,
Anne, there's probably Stella in there somewhere. Probably what a fun first
lady, Still you stole to you stole Jill and Milania the last two.
Then we got to kick it back old school. We had Nancy Reagan,
Rosalind Rosalind Carter, who just recently passed the great Roses Carter. And then
Elizabeth or Betty Ford, Betty Ford. That's who I was trying to go
for because I was thinking about Betty Ford Clinic. But I was like Barbara,
Barbara, Barbara Ford Clinic. You never know. Combined, you did
excellent in the mister snuffle Up, I guess category. But now it's your
turn in the barrel. Catherine. You could choose either Big Bird or Oscar
the Grouch for your Lightning Round question. I gotta go Oscar the Grouch.
Oscicker the Grouch. All right, great question, here it comes. I'm
gonna say it twice twenty seconds. Give me as many answers, Kira writes,
some answers now, because I'm gonna come to you with your five second
bottle straight away. So here's your Oscar the Grouch Lightning Round question. Per
Collider, what are the top nine reality TV shows of all times? During
the website they were like, these are the best ones we've ever seen.
So per Collider, what are the top nine reality TV shows of all time?
Twenty seconds on the Clock and a Go, The Bachelor, The Bachelorette,
Survivor, Big Brother, American Idol? Does that count Housewives? Perhaps
some version of a housewife and maybe one of those vander Pump shows bander Pum's
rules. How long is twenty second? You did great? You got four.
You got number one Survivor, Number three was Big Brother, Number five
was American Idol, and number six was The Bachelor and or Bachelorette. So
you got those four, so there's still some up for grabs. There's still
five on the big board. Per Collider, what are the top nine reality
TV shows of all time? Five Seconds, Kira and Go, Cops,
Love Island, Stop You didn't Steal Them? I think Cops has had the
longest run. When I was doing research, it was not for like call
thirty five years, but it didn't make their top nine. The ones we
did, let's go over the ones we didn't get to. Number two was
the Amazing race That's won like a billion Emmys with Survivor of the Amazing Race,
number four, Rue Paul's Drag, number four, Number seven Designers Make
It Work, Project Run Honestly sod Show. Yeah so great. It's on
Netflix right now. Number eight The Real World when things stop being polite and
get real The Real World on MTV. And then number nine Pack Up Your
Knives on Top Chef. Top Chef was in their top nine as well.
Well, they're good one, super fun. That was a really fun lightning
round. We have a scoreboard update after three. We have Kira with ten
and a half points and Catherine still in the lead with seventeen. It's seventeen
to ten and a half. I knew this was gonna happen coming. You
don't go up against like a lawyer and no brilliant human. It's fine,
but you're the most brilliant human of them all, is the thing. Oh
Katie, You're so sweet. I love you. I miss Kira so much.
I'm so happy that when I'm getting to see her face for this time.
That's great. I love it. Yeah. Well, this is a
great game because it's not a runaway, because we got the double duty coming
up. Points are doubled, things could change. I could draw a picture
that's gonna blow you all away. It could happen. It is seventeen to
ten and a half as we enter our fourth and final round between these two
wonderful ladies. Round four, the Double Duty. It's the Double Duty Radcliffe
Round. We call it the Double Duty because points are doubled and there are
nine big questions, so there are eighteen very important points that are up for
grabs. Let's see if Kira can stage a massive comeback or will Catherine be
the champ. We shall see the Double Duty. Today we're doing a music
round and we're kind of doing a round about popular songs or popular karaoke songs
and their lyrics. These are all songs you've heard a bunch of times,
I would think, So let's get into it this musical karaoke round in the
Double Duty. Here is question number one of nine. What Prince song begins
with the little preamble, Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to get
through this thing called life. They do that little preamble before the music starts
kicking in. What is that famous Prince song that begins with the preamble,
Daily Beloved? It's got a nice echo on it. Daily Beloved, we
are gathered here today to get through this thing called life. Name that Prince
song for number one? All right? Question number two? In the song
Sweet Caroline? And what two seasons are mentioned by mister Neil Diamond. I've
heard this song Sweet Caroline? What two seasons are mentioned in the lyrics of
Sweet Caroline? Made most famous by Neil Diamond? And if you've ever been
to a Boston Red Sox game in the eighth inning, they always sing this
song. But you at least got a chance with this one, though,
like Toyota than is not? Is that the kind of season we're talking about?
Tota and Happy Honda days? Is that that's how season? Okay?
All right, here we go, Question number three in the Double Duty.
The Country Music Awards gave this Garth Brooks song off his album No Fences the
Single of the Year back in nineteen ninety. Again, this is a song
you hear a lot on karaoke nights. The Country Music Awards gave this Garth
Brooks song off his album No Fences the Single of the Year back in nineteen
ninety. Name that song by Garth Brooks for number three. All right,
it's getting very quiet, which it often does in the fourth and final round.

like a key moment in our friendship. So we got it. Okay,
Okay, I like this question a lot. Question number six. The band
The Outfield had a huge hit in the nineteen eighties with their song Your Love.
That's the one that's like, I don't want to use your love tonight
or I don't want to lose your love tonight is the chorus, but the
first line of the song mentions Josie. Where is she? Where is Josie?
In that song by The Outfield from the nineteen eighties, it's the very
first line you hear of that song, I don't want to lose your love
tonight. Yeah, yeah, it's I don't wanna Yeah, I just want
to use your love, which is a weird line, or I don't want
to lose your love. Yeah. One is problematic and one is fine.
Yeah, you want to use my love? What a what a weird?
Come on? How do you expect to have anyone date you? So again?
For question number six, the band The Outfield had a huge hit the
nineteen eighties with their song Your Love. The first line of the song mentions
Josie where is she? I'll be very lenient on this one for number six.
Where is she? Yeah? Or what is she doing? What is
she up to? Where is she? Going, Where is she? What
is she doing? Those things will be very lenient, but it's the first
line of the song. Yeah, all right. Question number seven, Name

hands up. They're playing my song the Butterflies fly Away. Again for number
seven, name the singer and the song title with the following lyric. So

But I was very into music that year, so I do know it.
Very formative songs in your first year of life, all right, Question number

and shares the name with a popular version of poker. Name that song
that is Seriously, it's at your grocery store, It's on the TV every
two second. Everyone's using it on their tiktoks and their instagrams. Beyonce has
a new country song that is virtually everywhere and shares the name with a popular
version of Poker name that song for number eight, and we have arrived at
your final question between you two. It's question number nine and the Double Duty.
About a decade ago, what singer belted out the Disney anthem let it
go? God, I've got a two and a half year old. Oh
great? Question number nine About a decade ago, what singer belted out that
Disney anthem that hypnotized every child let it go? Name the singer of that
song for number nine. I can't believe that was a decade ago. Yeah,
honestly shocked. Yeah, I think it was, yeah, like twenty
fourteen, twenty fifteen, something around there. Okay, pencils down. Let
us go over our answers for round four, which is our Theodore Double Duty
Radcliff round today in the Double Duty, we're kind of popular karaoke songs and
their lyrics. Let's go over our answers. Question number one. What Prince
song begins with the preamble Daily Beloved, we gathered here today to get through
this thing called life. Catherine, did it come to you? For number
one? I hope it's Purple Rain. Otherwise my aunt Mary Jane is going
to be so disappointed in me. Purple Rain. Great, anthem, Kira,
what did you put? I also put purple Rain, but I think
your aunt Mary Jane is not going to I think it's something else. Oh
what is it, Mike Nelson? Anything else? Purple Rain is the anthem,
but it does not have this preamble. This preamble is the start because
the music starts kicking in. You start hearing the drum beat. How does
he go? And Let's go crazy? Let's crazy? Yeah, Let's go
crazy. As the song, it starts off with Daily Beloved out of a
tricky question, but it is Let's Go Crazy and not Purple Rain for number
one, no harm no fall. Question number two. In the song Sweet
Caroline, what two seasons are mentioned? Kira h spring and summer, spring
and summer? Cat What did you put? I also put spring and summer
yep, and then spring became the summer. It is spring and summer for
Sweet Caroline. Neil Diamond for number two you nailed it two big points apiece
question number three. The Cmas gave this Garth Brooks song off his album No
Fences the single of the Year back in nineteen ninety. Catherine, I am
not that familiar with country, so I wrote save a horse ride a cowboy
oo, my favorite country song. Great song? Kira, What did you
put for number three? I put friends in Low Places? I got friends
in low places. That is the correct answer, Kiera with two big points
and his friends in low places? Mister Garth brooks off no fences. Question
number four? Who gave us the karaoke jam? This is how we do
it? Who is the artist kind of that one hit? Wonder? This
is how we do it? Kira? Did you come up with something for
number four? I wrote a classic Kira answer Bobby Hay Now, Bobby Hey,
Now, I might start using that for when I don't know. I'm
just gonna put in Bobby Hay Now. Catherine, what did you put for
number four? I put that band with Mark Wahlberg. Oh yeah, does
anyone Mark? Mark and the Funky Bunch? Sure was it that this gentleman's
name was Montell Jordan montel joj Okay. I wouldn't have come up with that,
but I do know that name. This is how I do it,
by Montel Jordan. Question number five, you can dance you can give having
the time of your life as a lyric from what popular seventies tune? Catherine
dancing queen, dancing Queen, Kira, what did you put dancing queen?
Abba and abba? We got the dancing queens. It is dancing queen for
number five? Number six maybe my favorite question of the bunch. The band
The Outfield had a huge hit back in the nineteen eighties with their song Your
Love that had that chorus, I don't want to lose your love tonight.
The first line of the song, though, mentions a Josie where is she?
What is Josie doing? Kira? What did you come up with for
number six? I said Josie was a barkeepersbee. Yeah, that answer deserves
a huzza. Holy ship. Josie was a barkeeper's bff. What did you
put for number six? I think this is right, or at least it's
right in my world. He goes, Josie's on a vacation far away.
Well, that's really good. Jo's either on a vacation far away, Josie's
a barkeeper. What was it? A bar keepers? Be goddamn? Also,
she could be both. She couldn't be limiting her. But the line,
in fact, the first line of that Outfield song is Josie's on a
vacation farah away nice came around and talk it over. So I'm going to
give one point. I didn't talk it Yeah, it's a weird lyric.
I look when I saw the second line, I was like, I don't
remember that being the second lyric, but I think it's like, come around
and talk it over. I'm like, is he getting all of his guy
friends together to be like, guys, my girlfriend's gone. Yeah, I'm
going to give I'm going to give one point for Kira just because of you
know that that the Montel Jordan answer and the barkeep get You're getting one point,
Catherine, you're getting two full points for pulling that out. For number
six, it is Josie's on a Vacation far Away. Question number seven,

wonderful time. But the game is not over. It's time for the final
throwdown, the final throwdown. This is where Annie Roberts are wonderful producers,
coming back with a one off question. I'll read it to the world.
We can have our little discussion and then Annie will reveal the answer and we'll
learn a little something before we call it quit. So Annie, without further
ado, here comes your final throwdown question. What is the only mammal capable
of sustained flight? What is the only mammal capable of sustained flight? A
couple things jump out right away. What do you guys think? I'll let
you guys, Oh you want me to start us? What's jumping out at
you right well? Sustained flight I think is the word there, because you
have like flying squirrels that have those like you know, things between their arms
and legs. But they're kind of blighters. But if I'm if I'm not
mistaken, a bat is a mammal and they have sustained I feel like They're
like, that could be true, but that's the one thing I potted in
my head. I'm like, bats are mammals and they have wings, and
they seem to be able to fly around caves and stuff and like sustained flight.
But other than that, I'm like, I'm kind of drawing a blank.
Do you guys have any other ideas a mammal capable of sustained flight?
Like little? Does anyone know a rhino can can while a little? No,
they can't. I can't fly at all. I was believing you You're
very like, oh my god, yeah, I don't know. I guess.
I guess that truly. That popped in my head, but I was
like, that's not sustained, let's be honest. Yeah, I don't know.
Know. They just like are upside down and fly and that's kind of
it neat, But you know what the blood right? Have you ever seen
the have you ever seen the video of when they like bats are upside down,
but then they flip it around. They flip the video around and they're
like bats When you flip that upside down, they look like a bunch of
like goth people at a at a Yeah, super funny. Yeah, it's
so good. All right, I think we're going to just go bat.
I think we're going to go back, but we're going to learn something something
about sustained flight for mammals. So Annie, put us out of our misery.
Let's find out what the hell we're talking about here, Yes, nailed
it. It is the bat. So let's let's talk about the bat here.
Bats wings are like webbed hands. They row through the air. They
can fly for speeds of up to sixty miles an hour. That's crazy.
Mistaken for rodents. They are most more closely related to primates. That's oh
my god. Interesting. I thought that primates. So we're related to bats.
Wow. Wow, this is kind of an incredible thing too. Their
lifespan lasts between twenty and thirty years. That's insane. That seems kind of
uncrair when you think about like the short lives of cats and dogs that we
love so much. They get to live around on start adopting bats. Yeah,
let's domesticate bats are really cute. Have you ever seen the ones like
eating a banana? They're so cute, it's very cute. Yeah. Well,
yeah, that way our hearts won't get broken as often, not as
often. Yeah, and then finally, they are intelligent, gentle creatures that
have driven concert patient efforts to help save them. Oh my god, it's
beautiful. We love the bats. We love the bats. They can sustain
flight, and they are mammals. Well, ladies, it was a pleasure
