brass tax and go over our answers for a very interesting general knowledge question number
one of eight was Javni, a cartoon stork that talked like Graucho Marx and
held a pickle like a cigar, has been the official mascot of what pickle
brand since nineteen seventy four. Andrew, start us off, what did you
get for number one? Classic? The Lassic is a classic? Bill?
What did you put for number one? Now that I hear that I put
kosher? But I think that's just a type, just a kosher kosher pickle.
I like a kosher dill more than like a bread and butter a sweet
pickle. But it is Vlassic is the company that that weird stork that weirdly
has a name Javni or Joveni? Andrew one for one with the Vlastic.
I mean, this is probably the last time I'm going to be winning.
But yeah, don't get excited on sabrand beautiful one nothing after while. We're
gonna get Bill off the schneid right here? What is the Greek counterpart for
the Roman goddess Venus? For question number two? Bill? What did you
put for number two? Aphrodite? Aphrodite and Venus? Andrew? What did
you put for number two? Athena? Athena? We have Athena and Aphrodite.
Great guesses. Both start with the letter A. One of you is
correct. The correct correct answer is Aphrodite. Aphrodite is the Greek counterpart of
venus, so it's one to one after two, we love it. Question
number three, Your appendix is a small finger shaped organ that is attached to
what the small or the large intestine? Andrew, what do you got?
Large? Large and in charge? Bill? What did you put? I
went with small, got large and small? One of you is going to
be correct. That little finger thing is dangling off the beginning portion, so
it's not too far away from the other one. But it is the large
intestine that your appendix is attached to, large and in charge for question number
three, all right, Question number four, this is in Bill's wheelhouse.
In the Lethal Weapon series, Mel Gibson played Martin Riggs and the Great Danny
Glover portrayed Roger. What Bill tell us what the answer is Sogier, Murtau,
Murtaw, Murtaw, Andrew did it come to you? Okay? I
put Murdau, Murddaw or Murtaw, Roger Murdau or Murtau Urta. It's Murtaugh.
So we're given the full point. All right, to Bill, I'll
give you a half point because you were like one letter off, I'll give
you. I give half points a lot, so we'll give a half for
Murdau. It's been a while since I've seen that movie. We only watched
Mel Gibson movies at Russia Shana, and that was in the fall. So
yeah, I'm sucking Myrtal Riggs. I'm getting too old for this shit.
For number four, it is Murta question Number five. What two places in
the US have a type of climb chowder named after them? Andy? I
put New England and Boston, New England and Boston. Bill, do you
agree with that or did you go your own way? I went with New
England, and then I started thinking Boston is part of New England, so
that probably wouldn't make sense. But I went with Maryland because I know they
do a lot of clams. Yep, I did Maryland. Okay, you're
both gonna get a half point on this one. New England is correct.
New England is the white clam chowder. The red clam chowder is Manhattan clam
chow. Manhattan clam chowder is your red tomato based clam chowder. But you
got a half point each. We're doing fractions today on the pod. I
had New England clam chowder for the first time ever with Bill and Charlie before
our show at the Wilber Theater and explosive diarrhea. Okayoo, yeah, absolutely
nice. I enjoyed it though. You get that from cooked carot and it
doesn't matter what you put in. The end result is the same. I
know I should just be eating baby food. You should, all right.
Question number six rup to number six. Luke Combs has recently had a massive
hit song which is a cover of what song and by what other artist?
Bill? I said, fast Car by Tracy Chapman. Fast Car by Tracy
Chapman, Andrew, what did you put? I put that? I figured
you wouldn't know that. Bill's a sharp chap here now, fast Car by
the wonderful Tracy Chapman, who saw her debut album is like back on the
number one, like back number one on the charts, which is so great.
What a great album Tracy Chapman and fast Car. Question number seven.
Former Congresswoman from Ohio Marsha Fudge is the current secretary of HUD. What does
HUD stand for? Andrew? Now, I don't know if I've spelled all
this right, but I think it's health under Dick Diving. Ooh, I
like that Health underdict. Bill, What did you put u per seven.
I went with housing and urban development, Housing and urban development. The correct
answer is housing and urban development is what we know as HUD. Not to
get too confused with health and human services, AChase, that's what I was
thinking. That deserves a splooshe Question number eight, your final question. What
Thomas wrote the novels Red Dragon, The Silence of the Lambs, and Hannibal,
among others. I think he did. What was that movie Black Sunday
about the blimp that crashes into the Super Bowl. I think that was his
first book bill. Did you come up with a name? I could not
think of a name for some reason. The name Carlyle came to me,
so I said, Thomas Carlyle, Thomas Carlisle. That sounds fresh, raffie,
What did you get? I came up with Thomas Howell, and that
was just like the first name that popped in into my head, thinking I've
said, yeah, there's an act b Thomas Howell, the actor that was
in soul Man. We talked about him recently, how troubling that movie was.
But the outsiders. The correct answer this, gentleman, his name is
Thomas Harris. So it was with an H, but it's Thomas Harris wrote
all those Hannibal Lecter of books. So we are tabulating the scores as we
speak, a very fun round. Oh my god, this is how we

it's a half point game at halftime and we're entering our third of four
rounds. It's the dubious or infamous Lightning Round Round three, the Lightning Round.
Bill, you are trailing, so you can go first and choose from
one of these three headings. Today we're talking about one of our favorite documentaries
and the characters from one of our favorite documentaries, American Movie. So you
can choose today from either Mark Borschardt, Mike Shank or Uncle Bill. Again,
those headings have nothing to do with the question nor the answers. So
name your poison, Bill, I'll go with Uncle Bill. Go with Uncle
Bill. Great choice. All right, I'm gonna say the question twice.
I'm gonna say go, I'm gonna hit the button. You're gonna have twenty
seconds to say as many answers as possible. Andrew, you're gonna drop some
answers down because I'm coming straight to you five second rebuttal as soon as Bill's
twenty seconds are up. So, Bill, here is your Uncle Bill Lightning
Round question. I want the top nine US that have sent the most female
representatives to Congress or Senate over the last like one hundred years. So these
are the states that have sent the most women to DC either Congress or Senate
over the last since like nineteen seventeen. Top nine US states twenty seconds and
go Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York,
California, Oregon, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Ohio. Let's see
what other liberal states are there. Top you got three, you got the
top two. You got California, New York or top two. And you
got Ohio, which was number seven on the list. So you got three
out of the nine. There's still some there, Andy, you can try
and steal some your five second rebuttal. Top nine US states with the most
female representatives sent to DC in Congress of the Senate over the laste hundred years.
Five seconds and go Illinois, Wisconsin, Texas, Oregon, Washington State,
Florida. Stop stop, stop stop. I think you just got Washington
State under the wire. So you got three. You got Illinois, which
was number four, you got Washington State just under the wire was number six,
and Texas was number eight. So let's go over the ones we didn't
get to. Number three was Florida, number five was Michigan, Yes,
Michigan. And number eight or number nine, I should say, is Georgia.
The peach state. Georgia was number nine. For your Uncle Bill question,
you guys did very well with the Uncle Bill question. Now it's your
turn in the barrel, and you can choose either Mike Shank or Mark Borchard.
I gotta go with Mike Shank. Rip. Gotta go with Mike Shank.
Rip again, Uncle Bill and Mike Shank unbelievable both rip. All right,
here's your question. I'm gonna say it twice. Say go twenty seconds,
say as many answers, Bill, write your answers down. I'm coming
straight to you with your or five second rebuttal as soon as Andrews twenty seconds
are up. Here is your Mike Shank question. I want to know the
nine highest grossing films in the career of Robin Williams. These are the nine
highest grossing films in the career of the Great Robin Williams. Twenty Seconds on
the Clock and Ago, Aladdin, Missus Doubtfire, Good Morning Vietnam, The
Birdcage of Goodwill Hunting. Stop. You got two? You got too,
you did well. You got Missus Doubtfire, which was number two on the
list of all time and number eight Goodwill Hunting. So you got those two.
Wait, Aladdin's not on there. It's not on there. Mike shank
question here, it is the nine highest grossing films in the career of Robin
Williams. Your chance to steal some bill five seconds and go. He got
most of them. Blubber stop stop. I think when I when I say
the first one, you're like, oh, crap, I know what it
is, and I say it. Sure, that's one of them that you
didn't get. That is one of them. But number one on the list
is Night at the Museum. He played he played, Yeah, he played
the Teddy Roosevelt and they did the sequels. So all three Night at the
Museum movies are in the top four. I'm gonna say, though, Aladdin's
gotta be on there. There's got to be some mistake with that. We'll
have Annie look it up. Yes, with a Latin is a mistake.
But the Night at the Museums missed out fire in the top four. Number
five was Hook, number seven was Dead Poets Society, and number nine was
Patch Adams. Patch Adams. He won the Academy Award for that one,
didn't they cut? So we're tabulating our scores and he's probably couple of Laddin
too, like how much did that make? Oh my god? Well,
folks, we have an in game correction. Andrew said Aladdin and for whatever
reason, it was not on my list. But it's totally on the list,
So andrews, it's not live action maybe, but it's on there.
So we have a scoreboard where we're tabulating the scores again. We have a
new score. We have Bill with twelve and a half and Andrew with sixteen.

Yeah, question number five, nineteen eighties, forty five spokesperson that gave us
the line it works every time, Andrew. Nine of the time, it
works all the time. That would be Bill's favorite. Billy D Williams,
Billie D Williams, who played Gail Sayers and Brian's song Bill, what did
you put? Number five? Billy d Williams He actually put Lando Calrisian.
Yeah, I would I would accept, I would still accept that it is
the great Billy D. Williams, that was the spokesperson for that malt liquor
Colt forty five. Question number six could have been tougher. Some older presidents,
the twenty fifth and the twenty seventh presidents of these here United States?
Bill, what did you come up with for number six? I put McKinley
and Harrison. McKinley and Harrison, and then Andrew, what did you put?
I put McKinley and also William Howard Taft. So I'm going to give
one point to Bill and two points to Andrew. It is William McKinley and
William Howard Taft. It was McKinley and Taft. Are those two presidents.
There was a Harrison, William Henry Harrison, but I think he was like
number ten. He was like the tenth president the United States, Number seven.
The first African American to receive the title Miss America back in nineteen eighty
four, but she resigned the title due to some bogus controversy regarding nude photos
of her that were published in pent House magazine. Andrew, I know this
because I'm very straight, and anything you've heard about me being gay are simply
rumors started by me. That would be Vanessa Williams. Ah, Vanessa,
great guess? Bill, what did you put for number seven? Vanessa Williams?
It is Vanessa Williams for number seven? Vanessa and Vanessa you got it
right? Number eight? It comes down to these two. This Mississippian wrote
the novels The Sound and the Fury as I lay dying in Absalom Abslom during
the nineteen twenties and nineteen thirties, Bill, what did you put for number
eight? I'm withholding my answer until Andy holds his pad ups we can see
his I'm fine. I put Tennessee Williams. Okay, with Tennessee Ah,
we got Tennessee Williams and Tennessee Williams. Great guesses. He was more of
a playwright, though. The person I was looking for is William Faulkner.
Faulkner is the guy those novels. Okay. It comes down to this number
nine. Final question in the double Duty Albert Chalky White on Boardwalk Empire and
Omar Little on the Wire RAFFI did it come to you at all? Michael
Kay Williams. Michael, that is right, Michael Kay, Williams, william
Oh my god, yeah. I once tweeted him that I loved his show
on Weiss and he responded back, that is right. I didn't even think
of him. I was thinking your first names, but no, that's his
last name. Bill. What did you put for number nine? I put
Sam Sam Sam Williams rest in peace because he tragically passed away a year or
two ago. It is Michael Kenneth or Michael Kay Williams, who played Omar
Little on The Wire and Chalky White on Boardwalk Empire. Rip to Michael kay
Williams. We are tabulating the scores, so here was our final score after
the double duty. It is Billed who set with nineteen and a half and
Andrew Raffi with an unbelievable thirty two. Thirty two to nineteen and a half.
Andrew Raffie, you are the smartest person in the world for one week.
Totally rigged. It's rigged. I would like to thank absolutely nobody,
but I have never lost in Jeopardy, and Michael, I'll never ever play
you. It's like that episode of Seinfeld where Jerry beats Duncan in the race
and then refuses to race again. My grandma sayesn't stand it. I play
with her some times, and my mom's never beaten me. And you know,
it just feels good to have all my knowledge be trivial because I like
to impress people at cocktail parties I'm never invited to. I think this is
like the height You're never going to do better. This is the top five
accomplishments in my career. For sure. It's all downhill after this. Andy,
Absolutely, we are here with Bill Ducett. You can follow him on
social media at Billy deuce eighty six. We are happy to make a donation
in his name to the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. Check him out when he's
traveling doing his stand up stuff. And then I can't wait to hear more
about this Civil War reenactment journey you're about to go on. I don't even
know about this. It's a ne new endeavor. Yeah, when are you?
Are you doing it this year? You're doing it this summer or yeah,
yep, going to start this spring and going to get all the historically
accurate uniform pieces and a musket and it's going to be amazing. That's awesome.
Can't wait to see how this comes out. Who are you doing this
with? Bill? Myself and the Wisconsin. I forget which regiment it is.
I looked at a few of them, but I think it's the second
Wisconsin's second Regiment. That's so cool. I can't wait. And then our
champ, Andrew Raffi. You can follow him on social media at asap Underscore
Raffi and we're happy to make a donation in his name to Providence Farm Sober
Living Gents. It was a great game, but the show is not over.
It's time for the final throwdown, the final throwdown. This is where
Annie's going to come back and throw up a final throw down question. I'll
read it to the world. The three of us can discuss what's what.
Then Annie's going to reveal the answer and we're going to learn a little something
something before we say our goodbye. So, Annie, if you're at the
ready, throw up our final throwdown question. How many presidents have won Grammy
Awards? How many presidents have won Grammy Awards. That's a good question,
and I'm pretty sure Obama won one. Obama, I think Bill Clinton won
one, like because they're all like audio books. Yeah, did JFK ever
win something for his demise? But I think it is more recent presidents but
yeah, I would go with Obama. I know one. I think Clinton
won. There's no way I can't see Reagan. Carter. Yeah, Bill,
do you have any ideas I'm just trying to think of. I mean,
I don't. I mean, I know Bill Clinton played the saxophone,
so I'm assuming it's for either their speeches on record or Yeah. I don't
think it's just music. It could be there, Yeah, for their their
their biographies and stuff reading those. I think they can win too. Hillary
Clinton won one, but I think build it as well. Hillary wasn't president
though. No, I know, well, it depends how you asked.
I'll go with two. Yeah, I think that it's kind of our consensus.
Maybe it's Clinton and Obama. We're gonna say two. So Annie revealed
the answer. We're going to learn a little something something about this very interesting
question about the Grammys and our presidents. Like a Trump was sampled in like
a rap song at some point or something like that. Yeah, does he
get credit? Here we go, Oh, we were so close. It's
three. We were one off. It's three, and here they are.
It is Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama for Best Spoken Word
Album. Barack Obama and Bill Clinton have two Grammys. Jimmy Carter has three
and has been nominated nine times. He has written a lot of books after
the presidency. Richard Nixon was nominated for his interviews with David Frost. You
got that great movie Frost Nixon. So it is three almost four. But
yeah, Jimmy Carter surprising that he's been nominated nine times. That's that's surprising,
well, gents, it was. It was a great I'm having you
on the show. We're happy to make those donations in your name, and
I just wish you continued success in twenty twenty four and hopefully we get together
and throw back a few pictures at Jim Mitchell's. That sounds good to me.
