Welcome to You Should Know Better with Mike C. Nelson, the guy who
won't shut up about winning three times on Jeopardy. Welcome to you Should Know
Better, the trivia podcast that tests your knowledge and a little bit of your
patience. Our goal here is to celebrate the theme of continuing education. We
should always be learning and always be on the prowl to know better. Now
we will meet our smart and sexy guests and hear all about what tremendous causes
they are playing for, and shortly crown one of them the smartest person in
the world for one week. But as right now, let's jump right into
some questions and answers with our first of four rounds today, Round one General
Knowledge, Our General Knowledge Round Thinking caps on YouTube pencils. Ready, and
away we go. There are eight questions in the General Knowledge round. Here
is question number one. Ava du Vernay's latest film Origin is based on what
best selling book by Isabelle Wilkerson. I read this book a couple of years
ago, one of my favorites. Again. For question number one, Ava
du Varnay's latest film Origin is based on what best selling book by Isabelle Wilkerson.
For question number one, how are we feeling? Got it? Feeling
good? All over it? I hope where the second guessing comes in?
All right? Are you ready for question number two? We were born?
Ready, there it is? Here we go Question number two. What eighties
rocker gave us the Hits Heartbreaker? Shadows of the Night and Love is a
battlefield? For question number two? Name that eighties rocker that gave us the
huge Hits Heartbreaker Shadows of the Night and Love is a battlefield for question numero
boss good. We have confidence, but nothing backing it up. What is
her name? You've sung this at karaoke many times? Yeah, you can
sing the song. You know what she looks like. You've probably had a
hairstyle very similar to hers in the eighties. But can you come up with
just her last name? Will suffice? If you come up with her last
name? For question number two? You got it all right? Here we
go Question number three of eight in the general knowledge round in what Midwest state
would you find the Mall of America? That huge mongus Mall of America that
has like an ice rink and a roller coaster inside the Mall of America?
And what Midwest state would you find that? For question number three, go
to recap for question number three, in what Midwest state I'm looking for the
state? Where would you find the mall of America? For question number three?
Question number four, can you name the two lead actors from the hit
Max show The Last of Us? Can you name the two lead actors in
that excellent show that was just on Max recently, The Last of Us from
the last year? Can you name the two main actors? Last names will
suffice For question number four. If you get one of them right, I
might give you a half point. Did you watch the show? Yeah?
I watched, like, I think two episodes, maybe three, But I
was just like, I'm too dystopian right now to enjoy a dystopian. I
feel like I'm living dystopian, so I don't want any more. Yeah,
I don't need any fictional uh dystopia. I was like, when does what
time? Does episode two start? Like in real life? Yeah? I
get it. A lot of you want to escapism. You're like, I
don't want to escape to this. This is this is reality. I don't
like this. I got enough of this, all right. Question number five
goes like this, cobalt, corn flower, and Egyptian are all shades of
what color? I need you to name the color that have shades. Cobalt,
corn flower, and Egyptian are all shades of what color? For question
number five, yes, I have to pick one of the two answers that
I wrote down right. That's the way the game works. Educated guesses is
what the show is all about. We're uneducated guesses. I think I fall
into the latter category. Thank you, Ah, All right, here we
go. Quest number six, it's a tennis question. Your sports question centers
around the sport of tennis. What female tennis star won her first six Grand
Slam Singles finals and would have probably won a lot more, but her career
was upended when she was attacked and stabbed by an obsessed Steppie Graft fan in
Hamburg, Germany, back in April of nineteen ninety three. Can you name
that tennis star. I'll give you her first name, Monica. Do you
remember Monica's last name? Huge tennis star. She won her first six Grand
Slam Singles finals and probably would have been at the very top of the heap,
but she was attacked and stabbed by an obsessed Steffi Graf fan back in
Hamburg, Germany in April of ninety three, Monica, what for question number
six? And I can actually I remember that happening, and you've even given
the first name, and I'm just so bizarre. I remember when it happened,
like I you know, I watched Sports Center every day pretty much back
back then, and yeah, that was just one of the weirdest things.
And now you just you find it hard to believe that someone could get that
close to someone, yeah, at a stadium and smuggle in a weird knife
and stab someone in the back. As just to say, I remember who
was at the Tanya Harding ice skating situation too, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, the guy went in and just like hit her in the knee
with a bar and Nancy cagain yeah, oh that's not the answer to this
though. Yeah, logically, yes that is true. Yep. But just
the little Monica Carigain, you can try that answer. We'll see if it
works. Judges, they don't. They don't look happy. Oh no,
sorry, judges. Yeah, Monica, whom for a question number six?
Well you just gave it away, Monica whom obviously, Ah, you can
try these answers to Neil. It's not going to end up well for you,
all right, Are you ready for number seven? Yes, sir.
Question number seven your penultimate question in the general knowledge around what does the acronym
ATM stand for? And for you dirty birds out there, I don't mean
the one that is that you might find on porn hub. What's an ATM
actually stand for? For question number seven, I feel like we're old enough
or we may have a shot at this. I think that's kind of why
I did the question. I think younger people would have a tough time with
this because they've only heard of ATM their whole lives and they didn't know where
did that come from? Like, hmmm, absolutely, I'm feeling pretty good
too because I'm pretty sure I got that one right and I also know the
current lingo, like how in people text and they're write ATM What that means
too? Oh my gosh, I'm feeling pretty hip and cool right now?
You're cool? You still got it all right? Here's your final question in
the general Knowledge round. This is question number eight. Who was the villain
in the cartoon the Smurfs? Who are the Smurfs always battling? And then
for a bonus point, can you name that villain's cat? Oh? Baby,
you can? Yes, this is your wheelhouse. Oh man, you're
taking your to the woodshit, I am, I am going downtown? Oh
again? Question number eight? Who is the villain in the cartoon the Smurfs?
And for a bonus point, can you name that villain's cat? All
right, pencils down. We will go over your answers in a few moments,
but it's time to introduce are terrific guests all the way from Evanston,
Illinois, home of the Northwestern Wildcats. This woman is incredible. She worked
in higher education for twenty years, focusing on social justice and racial equity.
She started her own consulting company three years ago and is giving given a ton
of keynote speeches and trainings, seminars, and she's partners with the likes of
Nike, LinkedIn, the Melon Foundation, the Getty Trust, and hundreds of
higher education institutions. She's the coolest person I know. My friend Sumi Pendaker

pleasure to have you here. You can follow the Good Doctor on social media

So let's get to the charity. You guys both picked the same wonderful
charity that I love very much and have donated too for many years. Tell
us about it and why you picked it. You go, wow. We
picked Doctors without Borders because they're at the forefront of delivering medical care and interventions
at some of the most difficult places in the world Sadan, Congo, Palestine,
I mean, anywhere that you need a hero. They are there under
incredibly, incredibly awful circumstances in situations. So they have our utmost respect,
and they're one hundred percent in donor sort of you know, donor funded,
so they need our support more than ever as the world is in such strife.
So that's why we picked them. That's right. They've been around for
over fifty years, you know, going to places that many other entities can't
or won't or if they go, they go conditionally. And so we really
just believe in their mission and all the things that they have been and continue
to do in the face of a lot of you know, great physical danger.
So there's a lot of respect there. Yeah, and we're if it
doesn't matter who wins, So when Sumi wins, I don't have to feel
bad, yes, because that is that is the truth here. That's why
we're all winners. Because winners, we're happy to give a double donation to
Doctors Without Borders. You know the charity we're playing for today, you know
the wonderful guests that are here in attendance. But it's time to get back
to the game, get down to brass tacks and go over our answers for
the General Knowledge round. There were eight questions in the round. Question one
was about Ava DuVernay's latest film called Origin, and it's based on the best
selling book by Isabelle Wilkerson. Can you name that book? Doctor, Sumie?
What did you get for number one? Cast cast Sue? Neil,
what did you put for number one? Casty? Casty cast or? Because
it's spelled with an eaves spelled with an e, it is correct. I
put yep Isabelle Wilkerson's follow up to the Warmth of other Sons, which is
another incredible book, but it is cast Is that book I was looking for
for number one? You guys are one for one sigh of release, no
goose eggs and round one? Question number two? Could you come up with
this eighties rockers name that gave us the hits Heartbreakers, Shadows of the Night
and Love is a Battlefield? So, Neil, what did you put for
number two? I've put down, is it? Linda Ronstad, Linda Ronstack,
great guess, Assumi, what did you get for number two? And
it's what you said? I can sing these songs. I've watched the music
video. I cannot remember the name for the life for me, I wrote
Jill and Jet and I know it's wrong, but I love it yet,
Linda Ronstat, those are great educated guests, period. They aren't correct.
You're gonna groan when I say it because you know exactly. Oh god,
her name that every girl had that short haircut was Pat Bennetta. Oh I
could see her love and see her hit me with your best shot. Oh
God, fire away. We did not do that right. We did not
get you with our best No doctors, it's okay. So yeah, what
a disgrace to doctors without like Benatar question like everybody knows. Yeah, so
it is the wonderful Pat Benattar. Question number two, Question number three and
what Midwest state would you find the mall of America? Doctor Sumie, what
did you get for number three? Minnesota, Minna, Soda Sunil. What
did you bet soa? Minnesota and Minnesota? It is the great state of
Minnesota. For question for three, you're back on the trolley. Question number
four named the two lead actors from the hit Max show The Last of Us.
Suneil, what did you get for number four? So? I got
the full name paid Padro Pascal and Bella. I don't know her last name.
Oh so Bella bell I just Bella, Bella, Bella, Bella Legosi,
Bella Bella bar talk. Nope, isn't her first name Bella. I
don't know. We'll see, Summie. What did you put for this answer?
I wrote no because I wrote no? He wrote no. And you
can't see this at home, but a sad not a smiley face, but
a sad face next to no. She's hilarious. That deserves a splosh.
Okay, so I'm gonna give s Neil half a point because he got he
got Pedro Pascal for sure is the lead actor in this and his younger counterpart
is Bella Ramsey Bella. I think I should get three quarters of a point,
right, We're fractions are not my strongung suit, so a half is
about as good as i'll get. Fair Enough, I'll take whatever I can
get. Yeah, three courds of my brain will explode as some points and
stuff. I don't like it. Question number five. Cobalt, cornflower,
and Egyptian are all shades of what color? Sumi? Blue? Blue?
Suneil, what did you put fro number blue? They are cobalt, cornflower
and Egyptian blue. They are blues. So you got it right. For
question number five, it's the color blue. Question number six, can we
remember this tennis star again? She won her first six Grand Slam titles or
six Grand Slam Singles finals, and would have probably won a lot more,
but her career was up ended when she was attacked and stabbed by an obsessed
Stephie Groff fan in Hamburg, Germany, back in April of nineteen ninety three.
Her name is Monica what, Suneil? I believe her name is Monica
tennis player? Holy shit? What yep? Monica tennis player? Holy shit?
What Sumi? Do you agree with that? Monica blank? Monica blank?
This could be another groaner because you've heard this right. She's in the
Hall of Fame. She's a wonderful player. Her name was Monica sell Us,
Monica getting oldest top. I mean Monica Sells. Everybody knows her name.
He knew that? Oh my god? But what's what's crazy about?
That is, that's over thirty years ago, that that happened, which is
nuts to me. I can barely remember thirty minutes ago. Yeah, that
was thirty years ago. Plus that's wild. All right, let's see if
we got this back, maybe our age helped us. For question number seven,
what does the acronym ATM stand for Sumi automated teller machine, automated teller
machine, Suneil, what did you put same, automated teller machine. The
correct answer, though, is automated teller machine. You got it right now.
For number seven, that was a phenomenon and all performance just I mean,
I literally, I think I have to go because I yeah, don't
mind me with my little tricks and my jokes. Question number eight, who
is the villain in the cartoon of the Smurfs? And for a bonus a
bonus point, can you name the villain's cat? Sue Neil was was trying
hard on the shoe. See if you got idea? What did you get?
Well? I got gargamel, Okay, okay, And I feel like
the other name starts with an as, and I know this is wrong because
then I put Smigel Smigel. Good guess twenty years late? Put that one.
But you know, we'll see Gargamel and Schmiegel. Sue me, what
did you put gargamele and Asrael? Argamel and Azrael. The correct answer is
Gargamel is the villain that's always battling the Smurfs and his cat Asrael Azrael a
bone point. Wow, there it is. We are. We are tabulating
the scores right now for very fun round one. Here we go. Oh,
this is this is how we draw it up. We have su Neil
Malhotra with five and a half points and Sumi Pendicur with six. It's six
to five and a half after one, baby doll, neck and neck.
Ah, there it is. It is the slimmest of leads for Sumi over
her hubby, su Neil. It's six to five and a half after one.

third round. Welcome to the Terra Doome. It is the infamous Lightning Round
three, the Lightning Round. Assumi, you are trailing, so you get
to go first in this round. You could choose from these headings. Today
we're talking about the great Museums of Los Angeles. You could either choose the
Getty Lakma or the Broad which is Downtown. Name your poison for your Lightning
round question, Nicel Lakma, gonna go Lakma. All right, I'm gonna
say this question twice. I'm gonna say, go, You're gonna have twenty
seconds to give me as many answers as possible, So Neil, jot some
answers down because I'm gonna come to you with your five second rebuttal straight away.
Here is your Lakma lightning round question. Name the nine original members of
the Wu Tang clan. Wu Tang clan had nine original members. Can you
name any of the original members of the Wu Tang clan you picked, Lakma,
don't look at me twenty seconds on the clock and go ah Rizza odb
uh, I mean jumping jack flash like I stop. You got two,
You got two out of the nine. You did fine, you got the
Rizza and you got old dirty bastard. So you got to the original members
of the Wu Tang clan. So Neil your chance to see if you could
steal any in your five second or buttle original members of the Wu Tang clan,
and go, mister Wool and mister Tang. That's all I got,
Ah. They are unfortunately not members of the Wu Tang clan. This is
I believe. I would like to gently push back and say that they are
unofficial members members judges will have any look up unofficial members the Wu Tang Clan.
Let's go over the ones we didn't get to. You've heard of some
of these. You had the Rizza, but you forgot about the Jizza.
There's the Jizza as well as one of the members Method Man, oh my
God, Ray Kwan, ghost Face Killer, actually know these. Inspected Deck,
You God, and Masta Killer are some of the deeper cuts. But
yeah, the Rizza, the Jizza, Method Man, Rayquon, ghost Face

Bastard are the original members of the Woo Tang and now I got the Wu
Tang Clan. Yeah, Pat Benattar and Monica Sellis. They're all like sitting
on my shoulder smocking at me. Never forget, never forget us ever again,
very angrily. All right, son Neil, it's your turn in the
barrel. You can choose from either the getty or the road for your lightning
round question. I shall go with the getty. It was the getty,
so the broad was kind of a food and drink question that'll just go back
in the hopper for a later game. The getty question goes like this,
I'm going to say the question twice, say go forty seconds, give me
all the answers, sue me, write some answers down becase I'm gonna come
straight to you with your five second rebuttal. Here's your getty lightning round question.
I need the top nine most visited websites in the United States from last
year. The most visited websites in the United States in twenty twenty three,
twenty seconds on the clock and go Google, Yahoo, Redfin, definitely porn
Hub, Like what else would be visited? Oh maybe CNN? I don't
know, Oh god, what else? Maybe being not being stop? Stop?
You got three, you got number one. Google was number one with
a bullet. Number six you were right, porn Hub number six, and
number eight was yahhooo. Okay, so there's still some on the board,
assuming your chance to steal some five second rebuttal. Top nine most visited websites
in the United States from last year twenty twenty three, five seconds and go
Fox News, Zillow, Al Jazeera, CNN, Stop Stop. Great guesses,
but none of them were in the top nine. Nobody from America is
reading all Maybe Fox News would be one of them. I think we're like
the two people that go all but guesses. But I think when you hear

slim lead. As we enter the fourth and final round between you two,

her no matter what. Absolutely, but it is gal Gado for number two.
Hey, everybody, I just realize I've been saying gal Gado's name wrong

And then I was like, is it this person is the only alliteration person
I could think. It's a correct answer. And I think I even alluded

on the brain because I said merrily we roll along, and I think he
did that one too. It is the late great Steven Sunheim. Oh number

basketball baller. Great guess, Uh, consue me? What did you put

I made a guest and I believe therefore heretofore with which you groveling bastard.
We couldn't come up with this Hall of famer's name. Her name was Lisa
Leslie. Lisa Leslie your mouth, I was about to say Lisa. Baby.
That's because our our daughter names literally every single stuffed animal Lisa, and
she has six stuffed animals. They're all named Lisa. One, Lisa too,
Lisa three. I was like, that's kind of the cuddest thing I've
ever heard, though, baarn it Lisa Leslie. Okay, so good,
Lisa, Lisa Leslie. We will soon forget. And question number nine the
United farm Workers labor leader and civil rights activist sum Me Javez Cesar Chavez,
Suneil, what did you get the one and only Caesar Chavez is the correct
answer. As we tabulate our scores, this was so close. It was
a one and a half point game coming into this fourth and final round.
All right, we're fabulating our final score, and here it is. We
have Sunil Malhotra with thirty and a half points, very impressive score, and
we have Summi Pendicer with thirty one point by half point, another comeback in
the double duty round and by the slimmest of wins. Summie Pendicer, you
are the smartest person in the world for one week. Yes, yes,
holy smokes, that was a barn burner down to the final couple questionss holy
cow, so our champ, Summi Pendacar. You can follow her again on

you here. But the show is not over. It's time now for our
final throw down, the final throwdown. This is where Annie, our producer,
is going to come back here throw up a final throwdown question. I'll
read it to the world a couple times, and then we'll have a little
discussion here amongst the three of us. We'll reveal the answer and learn a
little something something before we say our goodbye. So Annie, I like it.
If you are ready, here's your question. Which of the US contiguous
states with four syllables is bordered by zero states with four syllables? Wow?
Which of the US contiguous states that has four syllables is bordered by zero?
States with four syllables? Oh my gosh, I'm trying to think of states
with four syllables. Minnesota is a four syllable states in Sota, California,
California. Yes, Califournia. I think California might be five. I think
it's four, okay, Pennsylvania and then but then but like because California is
New Mexico co. Yeah, no, so that won't work. Pennsylvania,
neither the Carolinas, Mississippi, Mississippy, Florida, Georgia, South. What's
above Mississippi Arkansas? Is it Mississippi? That's the answer. Tennessee can too
easy, and it might be Mississippi. I think you could be right because
let's think of the other one's pencil. What's Minnesota. Well, I don't
know how close North Dakota Quota they're all for, so it can't be them
because they border each other, so that wipes them out. California has New
Mexico, Arizona, Arizona, Arizona. Arizona kind of nixes California and Arizona
knicks each other out. I think you're right. Soon you know Mississippi I
think is miss Sippy doesn't Yeah, it's Alabama. Al actually is Alabama.
Alabama and Mississippi knock each other out a Calamana because I made a mistake.
New Mexico doesn't bordered at California. Arizona does, but Arizona has four Zona.
Oh yeah, yeah, you're right here. This is a great question,
but this is going to take six months. We're going to go through
all of the states. It is. Is it Pennsylvania because you got New
York, you got West virgi No, West Virginia borders Pennsylvania, so those
not is Virginia considered three or four Virginia It's gonna be Virginia. Gonna be
Indiana because because came up with this. So it's Indiana. You got Olio,
Michigan, and what's banana. It's got to be the Hoosiers. That's
what we're going with Indiana. It's Indiana. Annie, reveal our answer and
we'll go over the the fun facts here. God we that was a that
was a grill. That was a good one. Who who? Who?
Hoosiers? It is a great state, Indiana. That's where Suon Neil and
I went to school with Annie her husband Ward. Let's learn a little bit
about Indiana. Indiana's bordered by Michigan, Ohio, and Illinois. There are
fourteen states with four syllables. I think we named it pretty much all of
them. Maine is the only state with one syllable. That would be a
good question that would make your kind of head explode. I think if you
got that question and California is the only state that pronounces it's ea, ending
Nia as a post of Virginia and Pennsylvania's yeah, yeah California. That's interesting.
So California is a nod ball there, Nia and not ya Pennsylvania.
Uh, Indiana. We did it. Oh my god, you two.
