00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:03.919
Hello, You Should Know Better fans. As you may or may not know,

2
00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:07.519
sag Aftra, the union I am
a proud member of, as well

3
00:00:07.519 --> 00:00:11.240
as many of our guests, has
gone on strike. Part of adhering to

4
00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:15.000
this work stoppage is that we cannot
promote TV shows and films that are covered

5
00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:19.280
in this contract dispute, so we
are going to hold off on releasing any

6
00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:23.960
new episodes until the strike is over. We don't want to get anyone in

7
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:28.480
trouble, but we will be reposting
some of our favorite Jeopardy Champs episodes from

8
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:32.479
yesteryear, and as always, feel
free to listen to any of our previous

9
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:36.399
fifty plus pods. We thank you
for your support and understanding, and hopefully

10
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:40.960
we will be back real soon with
some new and entertaining season two episodes of

11
00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:47.280
You Should Know Better The Trivia Podcast. So, without further ado, on

12
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:58.840
with the show, welcome to You
Should Know Better with the mikes yell said

13
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:04.319
the guy who won't shut up about
winning three times on Jeopardy. Welcome to

14
00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:10.359
another episode of You Should Know Better, the Trivia podcast that tests your knowledge

15
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:12.760
and a little bit of your patients. Our goal here is to celebrate the

16
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:17.680
theme of continuing education. We should
always be learning and always be on the

17
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:22.680
prowl to know better. Now we
will meet our very special guests and former

18
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:27.159
Jeopardy champions and hear all about what
good causes they are playing for and shortly

19
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:33.439
crown one of them the smartest person
in the world for one week. But

20
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:38.280
as for right now, let's jump
right into some questions and answers with our

21
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:46.640
first of four rounds today, our
General Knowledge Round Round one, General Knowledge

22
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:53.560
Thinking caps on, gentlemen, pencils
Ready, away we go, General Knowledge

23
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:57.400
Round. There are eight questions in
this round. Here is question number one,

24
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:04.959
kind of a strange sports question,
what two teams met at the Euro

25
00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:10.520
twenty twenty finals that were held at
Wembley Stadium even though they actually played this

26
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:16.800
match last year in the summer of
twenty twenty one. Thank you COVID.

27
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:23.960
Should we admit our complete lack of
knowledge of football slash soccer at this point

28
00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:29.680
and the fact that we're just naming
two teams that we've I gave you a

29
00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:32.439
clue with European, so you got
it's sort of me. You might have

30
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:36.719
a chance help. I've been known
to ignore categories, so I might just

31
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:40.599
go Brazil. That question once again. What two teams met at the Euro

32
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:47.080
twenty twenty Finals at Wembley Stadium,
even though they actually played this match in

33
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:53.680
the summer of twenty twenty one.
Name those two teams? All right?

34
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:57.759
That was question number one in the
general knowledge on question number two is a

35
00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:01.360
little television action. Another number question. I need you to name three of

36
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:06.159
the four Golden Girls, just their
first names, their characters names. I

37
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:10.280
don't need their actress names. Three
of the four Golden Girls name their character

38
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:15.039
first names. I need three of
the four for you to get the point

39
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:17.360
that is of the age that I
did watch it a lot so and it's

40
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:22.360
spin off Empty Nests. That's right, every eighties sitcom I watched basically,

41
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:25.560
Yeah, all right, that is
question number two of eight in your general

42
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:30.639
knowledge around here is question number three, a little world geography. What is

43
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:37.680
the capital of the South American country
of Pottaguay or Paraguay or Potaguay. Name

44
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:42.960
that world capital for Potaguay. I
like that so far, Andy, you

45
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:47.000
have fully told me if you got
the question right or not just based off

46
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:51.080
of like I've never heard of soccer
before, or I used to watch all

47
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:53.680
of the Golden Girls. Is that
going to matter later whether we I'm not

48
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:58.599
going to playing things most of the
best as it turns out. Question number

49
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:02.199
four. Question number four is a
mute question. Miss Natalie Merchant, before

50
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:08.080
going solo, was the lead singer
for what band? Natalie Merchant. We've

51
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:12.360
all heard her voice before she went
solo and sang on a bunch of other

52
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:15.240
people's albums. She was the lead
singer of an alternative band of the nineties.

53
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:20.279
Name that band. We're halfway home
in the general knowledge round, We're

54
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:27.439
already halfway home. Four more questions
to go. Question number five is literature.

55
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:31.439
A little literature question for you.
I need the author that wrote the

56
00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:39.000
following novels, Narcissus and Goldman,
Steppenwolf, and The Glass Bead Game.

57
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:43.040
This author wrote these three books,
plus a bunch of others. But I

58
00:04:43.160 --> 00:04:46.560
just need the author's name. Last
name will do again. Those books that

59
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:54.480
this author wrote were Narcissus and Goldman, Steppenwolf, and The Glass Bead Game.

60
00:04:54.839 --> 00:04:58.519
Name the author. All right,
that was question number five. We're

61
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:00.639
on to question number six. This
is the question about the human body.

62
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:08.839
Question number six the islets of languor
hans that help metabolize glucose are located in

63
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:14.680
what organ? What organ of the
human body? Would you find the islets

64
00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:20.040
of languor Hans and those are things
that help metabolize glucose. For number six,

65
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:25.279
man, if you were just like
an early anatomous and just like name

66
00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:29.120
in parts, like why wouldn't everything
be like something like islets of langer Hans.

67
00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:32.040
Ah, it's your name is langer
Hans e meter just because the funness

68
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:36.319
of just because like that's a cool
like who knows if it's a place or

69
00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:42.879
it's a body part or you know, state of mind exactly. It is

70
00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:47.279
pretty good. Moving on to number
seven, question number seven in your general

71
00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:55.120
knowledge round of you should know better, Lacroix sparkling water originated in what US

72
00:05:55.240 --> 00:06:00.079
state? What US state? Did
Lacroix originate from? Lac always sparkling water.

73
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:04.839
After spending most of my covid um
with a recycling Ben's way too full

74
00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:09.079
of those fans, I finally went
to soda stream. Finally got my first

75
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:12.399
soda stream. It. It's pretty
great. Get those drops to a little

76
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:15.000
flavor. Uh, fantastic. Maybe
they'll sponsor us if we talk about them

77
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:19.800
enough. You hear that soda stream. Uh, bunch of nerds talking about

78
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:24.680
carbonated beverages. Let's go, Come
on, it's really going to help your

79
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:29.959
bottom line. Oh yeah, so
that was question number seven, your penultimate

80
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:33.439
question in round one the general knowledge
round. Lacroix sparkling water originated in what

81
00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:39.759
US state? A one and fifty
chance. There you go. Question number

82
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:44.120
eight, your final question in round
one? What outspoken? And A literative

83
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:49.040
anthropologists studied the nonliterate people of Oceania. That's a weird word to say,

84
00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:58.000
ocean Oceaniacea, Oceania. What outspoken
and a? Literative anthropologists studied the nonliterate

85
00:06:58.079 --> 00:07:01.279
people of Oceania? Do you guys
need any repeats? Do you need any

86
00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:06.639
more time? I feel good about
what I feel good about? That's good

87
00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:11.720
that. I hope you got some
of them right. If you did,

88
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:15.040
we're off to a great start.
But before we get to those answers,

89
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:19.720
folks playing along at home, let's
meet our stupendous guests. Very excited to

90
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:25.160
have both of these gents here.
Will start with this gentleman who has lived

91
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:29.079
all over the place and is now
residing in a very warm climb of Joshua

92
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:32.439
Tree, California. He is a
writer. He was a four time Jeopardy

93
00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:38.480
champion, and he was in the
most recent Tournament of Champions as a quarterfinalist.

94
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:42.480
Mister Andy Wood is here. Welcome
Andy, thank you for having me.

95
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:46.240
Very excited to do this. It's
awesome to have a rematch and read

96
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:48.639
it to your opponent in a second. What charity are you playing for today,

97
00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:54.680
Andy, I'm playing for against Malaria. It's a pretty great bang for

98
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:59.160
your buck charity because the human cost
of malaria is so high and it's very

99
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:03.199
easily low word with just the simple
purchase of nets, So your money goes

100
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:07.439
a long way when you donate to
that cause. Fantastic, it's great to

101
00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:11.240
have you here. We'll talk a
little bit more about your Jeopardy journey and

102
00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:13.720
the charity you're playing for throughout the
game. But let's move on to your

103
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:18.519
opponent. This is a rematch from
the Tournament of Champions. I believe did

104
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:22.519
you guys face off in the quarterfinals? Yes, we did based off in

105
00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:26.639
the quarterfinals. This gentleman is an
educator from the mean streets of Minneapolis,

106
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:31.759
Minnesota. He was a five time
champ. He's always one upping Andy.

107
00:08:31.879 --> 00:08:35.799
He's always one upping him. He's
a five time Jeopardy champion and he was

108
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:43.480
the actual winner of last year's Tournament
of Champions. Mister Sam Kavanaugh is here.

109
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.440
Sam Kavanaugh is here. Welcome Sam, Thank you for having me.

110
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:52.320
Oh yeah, and what charity are
you playing for today? I'm playing for

111
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:58.120
a media group called Unicorn Riot,
which is like a decentralized group of reporters

112
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:01.720
who I think do a lot of
very good reporting that maybe other media groups

113
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:05.679
don't, especially living here in Minnesota, a lot of stuff going on,

114
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:09.399
and they do a good job covering. Fantastic two great charities, two great

115
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:15.000
champions. We're going to talk all
about their journeys before, during, and

116
00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:18.559
after their runs on Jeopardy. But
it's great to have Sam Kavanaugh and Andy

117
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:24.200
Wood in this rematch, this grudge
match again. It's great to see you

118
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.480
both. All right, let's go
over your answers for round one. We

119
00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.759
had that very strange question number one. It was a sports question, but

120
00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:37.480
it was dealing with Euro twenty twenty
that was held in the summer of twenty

121
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:41.519
twenty one last summer, and that
question was what two teams met at the

122
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:45.159
Euro twenty twenty finals that were held
at Wembley Stadium in London, England,

123
00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:52.519
Thank you COVID. Sam, what
did you put for number one? They

124
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:56.399
had Italy and England? Italy and
England, Andy Wood, what did you

125
00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:01.480
put for number one? I said, Chester United in Madrid, Rayale,

126
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:05.279
I've not been following at all,
So that's those are great guesses, UEFA

127
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:09.480
Championships all that stuff, but this
is more of like a World Cup thing,

128
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:13.720
so it is in fact Italy versus
England for all the marbles. England

129
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.440
gets to play at home at Wembley. So Sam takes the lead. One

130
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:22.279
nothing. That's one question. Andy, hang in there, buddy, Yep,

131
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:26.120
here we go. This is your
wheelhouse question number two. Name three

132
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:28.519
of the four Golden Girls. I
think you got all four, so we'll

133
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:31.320
start with Andy. What did you
put for number two? I just chose

134
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:35.279
Dorothy, Rose and Sophia only because
I wasn't sure if Blanche had an E

135
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:39.240
on the end or not. Sam, what did you put for number two?

136
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:43.919
I can only come up with Rose
and Blanche, Rose and Blanche.

137
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.279
Yep, that's that is tough.
Yeah, Dorothy and Sophia were the other

138
00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:52.679
two. So we have Dorothy,
Blanche, Rose and Sophia. We had

139
00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:58.879
be Arthur Rue mcclenahan, Betty White, and Estelle Getty playing those golden girls.

140
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:05.159
Still Getty who is younger than the
Arthur playing her mother? Yeah yeah.

141
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:09.320
Question number three, moving right along
to our answers to round one,

142
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:13.679
our general knowledge round. What is
the capital of Paraguay? Sam Kavanaugh?

143
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:18.759
What did you put? I put
Asuncione? Andy looks pissed? Andy,

144
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:22.480
what did you put? If?
No excuse? There's not that many South

145
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.759
American countries. Um, I think
this is a capital of some South American

146
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:28.080
country, But I might have had
a syllable wrong. Paramaribo. Which country

147
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:33.799
is that? Sam para Maribo is? That's saram I believe? Okay,

148
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:37.080
it's out of three. Yeah,
you were in the right neck of the

149
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:43.000
names. But a Suncione is the
answer. That answer deserves a huzzah.

150
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:52.320
Asuncion Paraguay, it's it's it's a
lesser known one. People miss that one

151
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:56.399
quite a bit. Asuncion as the
capital of Paraguay. Question number four.

152
00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:00.919
Natalie Merchant, before going solo,
was the lead singer for what band?

153
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:05.120
Andy would these are the days?
To show you that it was ten thousand

154
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.039
maniacs. That is a great guess, Sam Cavanaugh, what did you put?

155
00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:11.960
I got nothing. I knew her
name and that was it. So

156
00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:16.240
yeah, maybe had the unplugged album. It was the ten Thousand Maniacs ten

157
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:22.799
Thousand Maniacs Great nineties alternative band led
by the vocal stylings of Miss Natalie Merchant

158
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:28.080
number five, who wrote Narcissistant,
Goldman, Steppenwolf and The Glass Bead Game.

159
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:33.240
Sam, I believe it was Herman
Hesse, Herman Hesse, Andy you

160
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:35.320
got Did you get it as well? Though? Did you get the right

161
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.600
answer? Herman Hassa, one of
my favorite authors of all time. You

162
00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:43.799
both get it. Both circles get
the square. Question number six. The

163
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:48.039
islets of langer Hans, one of
the cooler names for a body part that

164
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:52.600
helped metabolize glucos, are located in
what organ Andy, as weird Al taught

165
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.240
us. I believe it's the pancreas
he put the pancreas. Do you agree

166
00:12:56.320 --> 00:13:01.639
with pancreas? Do you agree with
pancreas? It is your pancreas that you

167
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:07.200
would find the islets of langer Hans. Question number seven. Lacroix sparkling water

168
00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:09.639
originated in what US state? Sam? What did you put for this one?

169
00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:13.720
This was mostly guess. I put
Wisconsin. It's a good guess,

170
00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:16.480
Andy Wood, what did you put? SAME's ease. They are known for

171
00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:22.559
their cheeses as well. Wisconsin.
Lacroix in Wisconsin is good. You guys

172
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:26.559
got it correct. Wisconsin is yours? I mean Lacroix Wisconsin. I just

173
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:31.720
like city. Never knew that.
I was thinking Sam might have the leg

174
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:35.720
up being from Minnesota, next next
door neighbor. But yeah, Lacroix Wisconsin

175
00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:43.279
connection. I was born in Minnesota, so that connections. Its baptizing Lacroix.

176
00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:46.960
Yah, that's how they do it
in Minneapolis. Finally, question eight,

177
00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:50.960
your final question for round one in
your General Knowledge round, what outspoken

178
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.200
and a literative anthropologists studied the nonliterate
people of Oceania? Andy, what did

179
00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.200
you put based on a literation alone? I was thing it was Margaret Meade.

180
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:03.399
Margaret Mead, that's a literation.
Sam, do you agree? I

181
00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:09.600
agree? Miss Margaret Meade is your
answer? Great job, Jence, that

182
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.080
was good. See you don't you
don't have to be so as scared as

183
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:16.039
you were at the beginning. You
both did well. We'll go over your

184
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:20.799
scores for round one out of those
first eight, it's six to six.

185
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:26.480
We got a tie ball game,
six to six. It's anyone's game.

186
00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:31.279
But before we get into round number
two, which is our pop culture grab

187
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:33.759
bag, I wanted to talk to
you guys a little bit about your Jeopardy

188
00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:37.440
journey. We'll start with you Andy. Just what was it like to get

189
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:39.799
on the show, How long did
it take? How long have you been

190
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:41.639
trying to get on the show.
When did you become a fan of the

191
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:45.919
show, all that stuff. I
guess it also lines up with eighties TV

192
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:48.279
watching. I was a fan from
the beginning. My first tape I ever

193
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:52.879
owned was Weird Alan three D,
which has I Lost on Jeopardy on it.

194
00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:56.120
And that album came out a few
months before the Trebec reboot in like

195
00:14:56.279 --> 00:15:00.399
early eighty four, so all the
references of the art fleming on part of

196
00:15:00.559 --> 00:15:01.919
years. And you know, I
had a chip on my shoulder as like

197
00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:07.039
a nerdy kid who considered himself smart
if whatever, and so yeah, I

198
00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:11.480
wanted to like prove myself. I
couldn't prove myself in athletics or other things,

199
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:15.240
but I was like, I got
to get in Jeopardy. So in

200
00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:18.000
ninety three, I drove out from
ann Arbor to Milwaukee to the nearest in

201
00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:24.320
person tryouts for the team tournament and
immediately limitated just that first fifty question round.

202
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:26.600
They're like, okay, goodbye ninety
five percent of you, and I

203
00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:28.120
was like, oh, that's it. I'm driving home, okay. And

204
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:31.600
then I gave up for about twenty
seven years, and then started trying out

205
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:35.679
again in I think late twenty nineteen. So I took a I took two

206
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:39.559
of the online tests, and one
of those two got me to the next

207
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:41.639
round, which I then did from
here in my house in Joshua Tree.

208
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:46.360
So the second third rounds were all
just zoom based, which is really weird,

209
00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:48.799
and sort of thought that would be
the end of it. I got

210
00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:50.000
a call that they want to be
on in three weeks, so I had

211
00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:56.960
to start cramming on capitals, which
I've already forgotten. And that is awesome.

212
00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:58.360
Sam, What about you? What
was your journey to get on the

213
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:02.039
show, and like did you start
watching the show and all that stuff?

214
00:16:02.200 --> 00:16:06.960
I started as a kid growing up
in Northern Minnesota. I had an Australian

215
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:10.679
mother and she would always have it
on when I got home from schools Around

216
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:12.720
normally around four thirty. I think
it jump time slots a few times,

217
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:15.039
but watch it every day and like, I, you know, have a

218
00:16:15.120 --> 00:16:19.440
knack for that trivia sort of things, and just like I'm curious about everything.

219
00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:23.799
But I eventually, when I was
in college, tried out a few

220
00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:30.120
times for the college tournament, got
to a round of auditions then and just

221
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.440
bombed it. I did so bad, like and that was fine, Like

222
00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:37.600
I wasn't ready. I you know, did the online tests pretty much any

223
00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:44.320
chance I got after that, and
eventually got through the auditions in twenty seventeen,

224
00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:47.879
and you know, took a day
off work. I had to lie

225
00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:52.200
to my boss until when I was
sick to fly to Chicago and take that

226
00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:55.519
that test and the audition, and
you know, as you know that,

227
00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:57.720
they tell you what, we'll call
you sometime in the next next eighteen months

228
00:16:57.720 --> 00:17:00.600
if we want you and won't call
you for you don't. And so it's

229
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:02.320
like, okay, well what do
I do now? You know? Yeah,

230
00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:06.559
you just have that window like eighteen
months, just sit by your phone

231
00:17:06.599 --> 00:17:10.200
and wait for all or start the
whole process over again. If you don't

232
00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:11.759
hear from us. It's so you
can have two babies in that time and

233
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:18.119
so yeah, but yeah, I
actually got the call shortly after that window,

234
00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:21.279
so I was not prepared at all. I was in Australia visiting family,

235
00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:23.839
the middle of a hike and a
overnight camp, had to find then

236
00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:30.720
they got the voicemail and had I
got the message from the producer who said

237
00:17:30.200 --> 00:17:33.400
call me a three or whatever in
the Pacific time, and I did the

238
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:36.519
math. I'm like, oh shit, that's five in the morning here and

239
00:17:36.519 --> 00:17:40.039
I'm in the middle of the woods. So I had to get up middle

240
00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:41.319
of the night, climb to the
top of a hill where I can have

241
00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:45.000
a little bit of cell service and
called California and it's like, hey,

242
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:45.759
can you be here in three weeks. I'm like, I'm on the other

243
00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:48.400
side of the world, but yeah, you know, we're leaving the days.

244
00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:52.440
And I kind of, you know, squeaked through a few games in

245
00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:56.839
that round and during those first five
games. Then I had two years off

246
00:17:56.920 --> 00:18:00.119
to prep for the two see,
and it's really didn't do it. Yeah,

247
00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:03.359
it's again. We'll talk a little
bit more about Yeah, your your

248
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:07.039
time on the show and you if
you have any Elex Trebeck stories after this

249
00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:11.240
next round. But yeah, it's
just everyone's got a different journey to even

250
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:14.160
get on the show. Or some
people are just like, oh yeah,

251
00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:17.160
I took the test once and boom
I was on. Other people like myself,

252
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:22.279
it was twenty plus years of taking
the test and being like a never,

253
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:26.240
I'm never going to get on.

00:19:56.799 --> 00:20:00.279

321
00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:15.440
These were best selling novels or books. Question number one, nineteen seventy

322
00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:19.799
Love means never having to say you're
sorry. We'll start with Andy, what

323
00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:23.200
did you put for number one?
I think this one has shares some TNA

324
00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:27.119
with Internet founder Al Gore. I
believe, and it's I think it's love

325
00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:30.440
story. Love story is a good
guest, Sam Kavanaugh, what did you

326
00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:36.400
put for number one? That's as
well? Love story turned into that awesome

327
00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:40.839
movie, was it Alie? Alie
McGraw is that her name? I think

328
00:24:41.319 --> 00:24:47.079
movie Ryan O'Neil and Allie mcgrawn Love
Story, Um Yes by Eric Siegel or

329
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:52.599
Seagal wrote that novel Love Story.
Al Gore say it was based on him

330
00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:56.279
and Tipper. Yeah, he said
that. He's also what is it Hu's

331
00:24:56.359 --> 00:24:59.559
roommates with Tommy Lee Jones. That's
that's a fact. But the love story

332
00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:03.240
things like is that him making stuff
up? I don't know. I've seen

333
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:06.880
the footage of him and Tip or
kissing at the convention or whatever, and

334
00:25:06.880 --> 00:25:08.039
it's like, okay, I can
believe that. I don't want it,

335
00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:14.119
but I get it. That's a
love story right there. Nineteen seventy five.

336
00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:18.720
This James A. Mishner work celebrating
the rich history of the American West.

337
00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:22.319
Mister Kavanaugh, there's so many Mitcheners. I don't even know if this

338
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:26.880
is a reallye centennial. Centennial is
a great guest, Andy Wood? What

339
00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:30.079
did you put for number? Time? Almost certain this is a Larry McMurtry

340
00:25:30.119 --> 00:25:33.920
book. But I just lonesome dove. That's not the right answer. The

341
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:41.359
correct answer is centennial. Pulling it
out of his rump in the nick of

342
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:45.079
time. It is centennial. Ever
heard of it? It was published.

343
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:48.319
I might be wrong on this,
but it was published on like the centennial

344
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:53.240
of the state of Colorado. Statehood. Yeah, something about that, something

345
00:25:53.359 --> 00:25:56.920
like that. James A. Mishner, Yeah, he's written a million books,

346
00:25:56.960 --> 00:26:00.640
but it is centennial. Great pull. Question number three nineteen eighty A

347
00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:04.319
shooting victim suffering from amnesia finds himself
with a Swiss bank account in the name

348
00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:08.640
of Jason Bourne Andy Wood. Which
one did you pick? I think it's

349
00:26:08.720 --> 00:26:12.319
just the Bourne identity, Sam.
Do you agree with that or do you

350
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:17.119
have a different It is the first
one, just like in the movies The

351
00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:22.599
Born Identity by Robert Ludlum. That's
a trivia question that comes up quite a

352
00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:25.559
bit. I think it's like Jason
Bourne, Robert Ludlam, Robert Ludlam,

353
00:26:25.680 --> 00:26:29.319
Jason Bourne. Know those two things
and you'll answer a lot of questions right.

354
00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:33.759
Question number four nineteen eighty five Stephen
King Penn this collection of chilling tales

355
00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:37.039
that takes its name from the minimum
number of personnel needed to operate and maintain

356
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:41.400
an item, like a business organization
or ship. Sam, Skeleton Crew,

357
00:26:42.039 --> 00:26:47.319
Andy, do you agree with that? I do. It is the Skeleton

358
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:51.119
Crew. I never read that one, but it is Skeleton Crew, not

359
00:26:51.240 --> 00:26:56.880
by Richard Bachman, but by Stephen
King. Question number five, nineteen eighty

360
00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:00.759
nine. This book opens with Gabriel
and slid Deane, the soul survivors of

361
00:27:00.799 --> 00:27:04.880
a terrorist airline bombing falling into the
Atlantic Ocean, Andy Wood, what is

362
00:27:04.920 --> 00:27:12.920
your guess? Oh, this is
that heist movie called Oceans Too. That

363
00:27:14.119 --> 00:27:26.480
answer deserves a SPU. That is
fantastic, Sam Kavanaugh, what did you

364
00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:33.960
put the Satanic Versus? The correct
answer is the book that put a hit

365
00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:38.079
on Salomon Rushdie. It is the
Satanic Versus. That's the plot of that

366
00:27:38.200 --> 00:27:41.519
book. I had no idea how
it opens. It's on my shelf.

367
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:45.039
It's on my shelf somewhere. I
have not read it yet, but it's

368
00:27:45.119 --> 00:27:49.000
on my to do list. But
but Oceans Too, God damn, that's

369
00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:52.960
a great half point. I will
I will, I will consider a half

370
00:27:53.039 --> 00:28:02.599
point for for entertainment value. That
was fantastic. Question number six, nineteen

ninety three, A photographer, a
farm wife, the heat of an Iowa

372
00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:07.920

What did you work for this, Sam,

373
00:28:08.519 --> 00:28:11.920
Because the Bridges of Madison County,
Andy Wood, what did you put?

374
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:18.240
I concur yes, the book by
Robert James Waller, that is The

375
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:25.519
Bridges of Madison County Question number seven, nineteen ninety seven. Eight of struggles

00:28:32.480 --> 00:28:36.599
to his home and the woman he
loved Andrew, What did you put?

379
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:41.279
I was having a holly between two
frigid titles and I'm hoping. It's cold

380
00:28:41.319 --> 00:28:45.440
Mountain, Cold Mountain is your answer, Sam Kavanaugh? What did you put?

381
00:28:45.000 --> 00:28:52.119
I agree the correct answer is frozen. No, it's cold, cold

382
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:56.440
Mountain is the answer. Question number
eight, two thousand and two. In

Susie Salmon watches from above of how her

from grief. In this Alice Sebold best

385
00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:11.039
seller, Sam, what did you
put this book that you've read The Lovely

386
00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:15.759
Bones The Lovely Bones, Andy what
did you put for number eight? Also

387
00:29:15.839 --> 00:29:18.680
put that, but I was hoping
Sam didn't have it. He did pull

388
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:22.720
it out at the last second.
It is The Lovely Bones. I feel

389
00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:26.480
like I think everyone read that book. It was a great book. The

390
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:30.640
movie. No I was. I
was stuck between that and Winter's Bone.

391
00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:36.480
So that's really funny. Both of
your brains were just had Winter's Bone in

392
00:29:36.599 --> 00:29:38.599
your head from Cold Mountain or The
Lovely Bones. That makes a lot of

393
00:29:38.680 --> 00:29:47.400
sense movie Bones. Yeah, yeah, well let's make that movie the three

394
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:49.759
of us. Let's put our heads
together. Awesome. So our scores,

395

398
00:30:07.960 --> 00:30:11.240

Bill Hicks, the late great Bill Hicks.

402
00:30:23.440 --> 00:30:27.000

like, what you're reading for,

403
00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:33.759
like what you're reading for? Or
maybe so I don't end up a waitress

404
00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:40.160
at at Cracker Barrel. Uh yeah, what a weird question to ask anyone

405
00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:42.400
what you're not what are you reading? What are you reading for? Wow?

406
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:48.119
Fantastic. So you guys were lucky
enough to play Jeopardy, you had

407
00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:52.799
your runs of four and five wins
with Alex trebec as still still as the

408
00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:56.119
host of our beloved show, our
favorite, very our very favorite show.

409
00:30:56.359 --> 00:31:00.200
Um, do you have any tales
or stories from your time on the show

410
00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:04.319
of mister Alex Trebeck. We'll start
with you, Sam. I remember being

411
00:31:04.359 --> 00:31:10.400
really nervous to meet him. You
know, he's been in my living room

412
00:31:10.480 --> 00:31:12.599
for my entire life, and you
know, he was that finger right,

413
00:31:12.680 --> 00:31:18.599
he was Walter Cronkite of modern era. And then just actually meeting him and

414
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:22.240
it was like, oh no,
this like he had just that calling a

415
00:31:22.319 --> 00:31:25.680
fact at least on me, where
he just like he clearly wanted everyone to

416
00:31:25.759 --> 00:31:29.480
do well and he wanted us to
put on a good show. And he

417
00:31:29.680 --> 00:31:33.680
said I think at the end of
my first one he used the term very

418
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:37.680
impressive and I just ran with that
for the next two years. That was

419
00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:41.319
that's all you need. That's all
I needed. It didn't even need to

420
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:44.640
send me any money. I mean
they did. I was very happy for

421
00:31:44.680 --> 00:31:48.519
that. Dude. Yeah, the
money is a weird You sometimes forget about

422
00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:51.359
it because I did the same thing
when I'm Andy, you probably did as

423
00:31:51.400 --> 00:31:53.960
well. We're like, getting on
the show was the goal. We we

424
00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:56.720
all did that. We all did
well. We all won a game,

425
00:31:56.960 --> 00:32:00.279
which again just like blew my'm after
the first win, and I was like,

426
00:32:00.359 --> 00:32:04.319
I could leave right now and be
the happiest I bucket list. It's

427
00:32:04.359 --> 00:32:06.960
all good. And then you're like, oh shit, that's right. I'd

428
00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:08.400
like, in the next one hundred
and twenty days, they're going to send

429
00:32:08.400 --> 00:32:14.599
me a check in the ll of
a lot of money for knowing you know,

430
00:32:15.200 --> 00:32:22.960
it's not oceans too, it's I
think versus knowing that money that Yeah.

431
00:32:23.440 --> 00:32:27.599
So do you have any stories Andy
with with our beloved Alex Trebek.

432
00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:32.079
Yeah. I'll second what Sam said
about just the professionalism Walter cronkite ism,

433
00:32:32.079 --> 00:32:36.599
because as everyone's probably talked about,
he can't really pale around with people very

434
00:32:36.680 --> 00:32:38.119
much, so there aren't like a
lot of like everyone wants to hear a

435
00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:43.640
story of you like backstage down shooting
the ship. But yeah, he was

436
00:32:43.880 --> 00:32:45.480
just such a pro, Like I
was amazed, I did a whole tape

437
00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:49.319
day. I did Monday through Friday, so it was five episodes in a

438
00:32:49.400 --> 00:32:51.839
day, and like he only he
only had to do one pick up.

439
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:54.960
It's because he rewrote a question himself
on the fly, Like he just nailed

440
00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:58.920
it. And he was sick at
that time. And you know, it

441
00:32:59.079 --> 00:33:00.759
was a weird time with no audience, which he acknowledged in one of the

442
00:33:01.160 --> 00:33:04.680
conversations we had at the end of
the game. He talked about how like,

443
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:06.880
you know, normally this is more
fun for all of us, he

444
00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:09.119
was saying, which I'm sure is
true. So he was you could tell

445
00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:13.839
he was a little bummed at this
situation for taping, but it didn't it

446
00:33:13.960 --> 00:33:17.279
didn't impact his performance and his ability
to help bring out the best and everyone.

447
00:33:17.519 --> 00:33:22.359
And there was also like this sort
of like I can't think of what

448
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:24.359
the appropriate sports we've met movie metaphor
is, but like during one of the

449
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:30.480
stopdowns for commercial, the stage manager
said to him in a way that we

450
00:33:30.559 --> 00:33:31.920
weren't supposed to hear, but we
just could hear. You know, if

451
00:33:32.119 --> 00:33:35.319
basically, if you need to stop, just let us know. You don't,

452
00:33:35.319 --> 00:33:37.519
you don't, you don't have to
be doing this, because he was

453
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:40.400
six weeks from when he would pass
away at this point, and Alex just

454
00:33:40.480 --> 00:33:45.640
sort of like said, Nope,
we're gonna keep going. And I just

455
00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:47.480
like and then as soon as the
cameras were on, if you hadn't known

456
00:33:47.599 --> 00:33:52.279
he was at all ill, you
wouldn't have guessed it, right. I've

457
00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:58.240
heard numerous stories from either contestants or
crew or the Clue crew people were telling

458
00:33:58.319 --> 00:34:01.519
stories of just like, yeah,
there was days where before they you know,

459
00:34:01.599 --> 00:34:05.200
the show went on and the cameras
were on, he was in his

460
00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:07.559
you know, in his green room
or his dressing room, and he was

461
00:34:07.559 --> 00:34:10.159
just like on the floor and like, but once it was like god,

462
00:34:10.480 --> 00:34:15.760
boom, he could go still doing
multiple shows, five shows in a day,

463
00:34:15.360 --> 00:34:20.920
and again still being affable and hilarious
and articulate and making everyone feel good

464
00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:22.440
and making jokes and making fun of
people, making fun of himself, and

465
00:34:22.559 --> 00:34:28.280
like he never let on of how
sick he was. And his legend just

466
00:34:28.360 --> 00:34:30.239
grows, and I think it'll continue
to grow. He'll become even a bigger

467
00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:35.719
mythic figure because we all know it's
like Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy. They're

468
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:39.280
two weird shows that have lasted this
long and they're showing no signs that they're

469
00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:43.079
ever going to slow down. And
it's like, well, thanks for those

470
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:45.159
stories, gents, that's so awesome
to hear about that and your time.

471
00:34:45.199 --> 00:34:50.039
And we'll talk about the Tournament of
Champions after our next round, because that

472
00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:54.880
was another special time and a special
group and a special champ by the way,

473
00:34:55.360 --> 00:35:00.400
but we'll get into that after around
three. Round three, it's fourteen

474
00:35:00.480 --> 00:35:06.679
to twelve going into round three.
This is our dubious lightning round. Round

475
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:15.920
three, the lightning round. Oh
my god, adds sound effects, insert

476
00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:20.000
thunderbolts and whatnot. This is our
lightning round. It's a little bit different

477
00:35:20.079 --> 00:35:23.199
round than our other three rounds.
Andy, you are trailing by two points,

478
00:35:23.199 --> 00:35:27.559
so you'll get to choose from these
categories. Now I've given these three

479
00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:30.360
random things to choose from instead of
one, two, three or ABC,

480
00:35:30.639 --> 00:35:32.719
so they have nothing to do with
the question nor the answers. But you

481
00:35:32.760 --> 00:35:38.559
can pick either Mike Tyson's Punch Out, Street Fighter two or Mortal Kombat.

482
00:35:38.679 --> 00:35:43.320
Those are your category titles that you
can choose from. Again, these are

483
00:35:43.360 --> 00:35:47.000
going to be three random questions,
open ended. You get to choose what's

484
00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:51.440
your name your poison. I'm gonna
say, get over here and give me

485
00:35:51.519 --> 00:35:58.199
that Mortal Kombat, A Mortal comp
Yes, wise choice, my friend,

486
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:01.639
Mortal Kombat. Right. So I'm
going to put twenty seconds on the clock.

487
00:36:02.159 --> 00:36:05.920
Sam, you pay attention for your
five second rebuttal, which is going

488
00:36:05.960 --> 00:36:08.119
to come immediately after this. So
I'm going to repeat the question twice,

489
00:36:08.639 --> 00:36:12.760
say go, and then hit the
button on my phone here for the twenty

490
00:36:12.800 --> 00:36:16.039
seconds to start. So I need
for you, Andy Wood, the top

491
00:36:16.679 --> 00:36:22.519
eleven largest fast food chains by number
of locations. I need the top eleven

492
00:36:23.320 --> 00:36:31.440
largest fast food chains by number of
locations, and go Subway, McDonald's,

493
00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:43.920
Wendy's, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Carl's Junior, Hardy's, Sonic Del

494
00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:54.079
Taco, Arby's, Burger King,
Popeyes Stop Stop. Popeyes was not one

495
00:36:54.159 --> 00:36:58.599
of them, but you did get
Subway, McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza

496
00:36:58.679 --> 00:37:02.039
Hut, Taco Bell, and win
these five second rebuttal, Sam Kavanaugh,

497
00:37:02.360 --> 00:37:13.880
and go KFC Long John Silver's Stop. You got KFC. You pulled off

498
00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:19.679
KFC, so we got Sam stole
one, but Andy did well and you

499
00:37:19.800 --> 00:37:23.239
got Subway, McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza, Hunt, Taco Bell,

500
00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:29.760
and Wendy's. So you got six
six to one and you're part of the

501
00:37:29.880 --> 00:37:31.199
lightning round. The ones we didn't
get to. And this is kind of

502
00:37:31.239 --> 00:37:37.599
a tricky one because they're considered fast
food. Starbucks and Duncan are considered fast

503
00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:40.000
food, so they're on the list. So we had Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts.

504
00:37:40.039 --> 00:37:45.679
I don't believe anyone said Dominos.
They're everywhere. Domino's pizza the weirdest

505
00:37:45.719 --> 00:37:49.480
one of all. And again I
think we we've looked this up in the

506
00:37:49.559 --> 00:37:52.960
past. Hunt Brothers Pizza. Have
you guys ever been to a Hunt Brothers.

507
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:57.480
I don't know. Maybe it's in
like one state and they're just like

508
00:37:57.760 --> 00:38:01.000
on every corner something, but they're
there's a ton of there's thousands of them.

509
00:38:01.639 --> 00:38:05.000
Um, I had never heard of
that. So I guess in a

510
00:38:05.079 --> 00:38:07.679
certain part of the United States there
are a lot of Hunt Brothers pizzas.

511
00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:10.400
Is that related to Hunt's ketchup?
You think? I don't. Again,

512
00:38:10.519 --> 00:38:16.800
it's just Hunt Hunt Brothers Tennessee,
Tennessee area. And he's saying, so

513
00:38:16.920 --> 00:38:21.679
like maybe in Tennessee Hunt Brothers are
like Starbucks in there on every corner.

514
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:25.199
So good job, Andy, six
to one in your part of the Lightning

515
00:38:25.360 --> 00:38:29.880
Round with Mortal Kombat. Good choice
now, Sam, it's up to you.

516
00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:34.639
You have two choices now, Mike
Tyson's punch out or street Fighter two

517
00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:37.880
for your Lightning Round question. Oh, let's go Mike Tyson for sure.

518
00:38:37.079 --> 00:38:40.800
Mike Tyson's punch out? Are you
going to be Glass Joe? Are you

519
00:38:40.880 --> 00:38:45.679
gonna be Piston? Honda King,
hippo? He was great. Punch him

520
00:38:45.719 --> 00:38:49.199
in the belly until his pants fall
down. That was the best. All

521
00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:52.679
right, here's your question, Mike
Tyson's punch out in the Lightning round.

522
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:58.760
All right, I'm gonna again Andy, you stand by for your rebuttal.

523
00:38:58.840 --> 00:39:01.280
Sam, I'm gonna repeat the question
twice and then say go. There are

524
00:39:01.320 --> 00:39:07.159
eleven actresses that have been nominated for
an Oscar seven plus times. These are

525
00:39:07.239 --> 00:39:14.559
all actresses that have been nominated for
an Oscar seven or more times and Ago

526
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:25.280
Meryl Streep, Amy Adams, Um
claim close, Uh, Katherine Hepburn,

527
00:39:27.480 --> 00:39:37.760
Um no, Yola Davis, Um
stop. You got three? You got

528
00:39:37.840 --> 00:39:43.280
Meryl Streep, Katherine Hepburn, and
Glenn Close. Andy, your five second

529
00:39:43.320 --> 00:39:51.000
rebuttal starts now. Uh, Audrey
Hepburn, um um um, Frances McDormand

530
00:39:51.880 --> 00:39:57.760
Julia Moore Stop stop stop. So
Andy could not steal one on that.

531
00:39:58.000 --> 00:40:00.079
Sam got three. That was tough. But when you hear some some of

532
00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:01.719
these you'll be like, I don't
know who that is, but some of

533
00:40:01.760 --> 00:40:06.880
these you're not going to get.
Betty Davis. She's got Betty Davis eye.

534
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:09.039
She was nominated for a bunch.
You did get Meryl Street, Katherine

535
00:40:09.079 --> 00:40:13.000
Hepburn and Glenn Close. They were
very at top. Geraldine Page. I

536
00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:15.239
don't know a lot of Geraldine Page
movies, but she was nominated a bunch.

537
00:40:15.280 --> 00:40:22.119
I think back in the day,
Ingrid Bergman, Kate Blanchette, She's

538
00:40:22.199 --> 00:40:25.880
she's firing on all cylinders, Kate
Blanchette. Jane Fonda has been nominated a

539
00:40:25.880 --> 00:40:29.119
bunch, she's won, She's won
a few and been nominated a lot.

540
00:40:29.920 --> 00:40:32.400
Dame Judy Dench, I was gonna, all, why didn't I start with

541
00:40:32.519 --> 00:40:40.800
that? But you can only play
queens or cats, I guess, but

542
00:40:42.000 --> 00:40:45.000
I feel like if she plays any
type of queen, she's up there.

543
00:40:45.159 --> 00:40:49.639
Um Greer Garson is another old school
one. She's in like how green was

544
00:40:49.719 --> 00:40:52.000
my valley and movies of that nature. I think back in the day Kate

545
00:40:52.079 --> 00:41:00.480
Winslet. Kate Winslet has been nominated
for more than seven oscars already incredible mayor

546
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:07.880
of Easttown. So let's go through
our scores we had the Mortal Kombat was

547
00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:10.679
really good to you, Andy,
Andy got six in that round. Sam

548
00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:15.159
got four. So look at that. Guess what the scores are. I

549
00:41:15.199 --> 00:41:21.800
have a tie ball game eighteen to
eighteen going into our final round. This

550
00:41:22.039 --> 00:41:24.679
is exactly how I drew it up. Fantastic. That was your lightning round.

551
00:41:24.679 --> 00:41:28.239
So the other one Street Fighter two, that question will just go back

552
00:41:28.280 --> 00:41:31.199
in the hopper for a future game. We'll never know if that would be

553
00:41:31.280 --> 00:41:36.239
better or worse in the lightning round. It is a different way to use

554
00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:38.920
our brains. But it is eighteen
to eighteen before we get into our final

555
00:41:39.039 --> 00:41:43.440
round. Let's talk a little bit
about the Tournament of Champions and what a

556
00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:46.519
special group of people. What was
your personal experience of the whole Tournament of

557
00:41:46.599 --> 00:41:52.000
Champions. We'll start with Andy.
It was a very strange sort of shared

558
00:41:52.119 --> 00:41:57.480
trauma, because I mean both my
regular season games and this were during COVID,

559
00:41:57.639 --> 00:42:02.480
So you know, very strange protocol
calls. You're extra isolated, and

560
00:42:04.400 --> 00:42:07.599
the day of the taping was obviously
very stressful, and we don't know when

561
00:42:07.719 --> 00:42:12.119
various people are gonna get drawn,
and we can't have any devices, so

562
00:42:12.239 --> 00:42:14.119
you can bring a book in.
But like, we're all just kind of

563
00:42:14.320 --> 00:42:16.760
sitting in the stands of Wheel of
Fortune stage, staring at a tarped over

564
00:42:16.840 --> 00:42:22.239
wheel, sitting ten seats apart from
each other, trying to pass eight hours.

565
00:42:22.559 --> 00:42:24.159
But in that time we actually had
a fair amount of fun. It

566
00:42:24.239 --> 00:42:28.519
sort of Ben sort of became the
camp counselor of the group because he's a

567
00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:30.599
teacher, and so yeah, it
was it was fun in spite of being

568
00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:37.320
very stressful. I remember standing in
line six feet apart near Sam and one

569
00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:40.039
of the maybe when we were doing
those like poses that they never used or

570
00:42:40.159 --> 00:42:45.239
something, and getting to get to
know him a bit, and he was

571
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:47.519
at some point doing push ups,
which I remember respecting a lot, just

572
00:42:47.639 --> 00:42:51.079
to keep the blood pop big,
like you got to do something to deal

573
00:42:51.119 --> 00:42:53.719
with all this extra pent up adrenaline. And then once you're out there,

574
00:42:55.079 --> 00:42:59.639
it's just a whirlwind like always,
except the players are even better, and

575
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:05.960
sometimes it just gets away from you, and I felt like I enjoyed the

576
00:43:06.280 --> 00:43:10.000
Jeopardy round that I did not enjoy
the double Jeopardy round. And then I

577
00:43:10.119 --> 00:43:14.320
spent you know, a month dwelling
on what I could have done differently.

578
00:43:14.480 --> 00:43:17.519
But two months after that, now
the memories are all just positive. And

579
00:43:17.559 --> 00:43:22.719
now I have this group of sixteen
friends that we stay in touch with it

580
00:43:22.760 --> 00:43:24.920
and play trivia and we remember that
like as soon as it ended, sort

581
00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:28.400
of quickly went back to remembering,
oh, we all got here because we

582
00:43:28.480 --> 00:43:31.519
actually love trivia. So yeah,
overall, it's very positive. But it

583
00:43:31.639 --> 00:43:36.519
is a very interesting thing that is
a and even the producers talk about how

584
00:43:36.559 --> 00:43:38.800
this is sort of a shared trauma
that you go through and then you also

585
00:43:38.800 --> 00:43:42.360
have to stay silent about it for
a month afterwards, so oh, you

586
00:43:42.440 --> 00:43:45.800
only have the other contestants to share
these experiences with. So it's a very

587
00:43:45.880 --> 00:43:49.280
bizarre. Yeah, it's one of
the highlights of my life, but also

588
00:43:49.840 --> 00:43:52.960
one of the most stressful days I
can remember in my life. I can

589
00:43:52.079 --> 00:43:55.119
imagine, like again, I brought
a book too, and I read the

590
00:43:55.199 --> 00:43:59.719
same sentence over and over a Jeneba
thousand times. I am not going to

591
00:43:59.800 --> 00:44:05.079
retain any of this because I can't
concentrate on this book, but yeah,

592
00:44:05.159 --> 00:44:07.679
it is a weird thing. And
I think with the COVID protocols, it's

593
00:44:07.719 --> 00:44:10.000
like they were doing everything by the
book and everyone was tested and everyone was

594
00:44:10.239 --> 00:44:14.320
staying apart and wearing a mask,
so it was harder to be chummy with

595
00:44:14.800 --> 00:44:17.159
with anybody, which was, you
know, a little bit of a bummer.

596
00:44:17.199 --> 00:44:21.400
But again, I love that there's
this community, um that we're really

597
00:44:21.440 --> 00:44:22.559
trying to start, and I know
there's a big Facebook group and what you

598
00:44:22.599 --> 00:44:25.760
guys have done with the Tournament of
Champions folks, is like that gives me

599
00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:30.519
hope that we can befriend this like
you know, this weird sorority or fraternity

600
00:44:30.599 --> 00:44:34.920
that we have of being on our
favorite show. Um, Sam, what

601
00:44:35.079 --> 00:44:37.280
was it like for you the Tournament
of Champions? It was it was pretty

602
00:44:37.320 --> 00:44:45.320
good? No, I mean I
yeah, I want to echo Annie and

603
00:44:45.400 --> 00:44:50.000
some of that of it was it's
one like super surreal, but I mean

604
00:44:50.039 --> 00:44:52.639
I was. I was very impressive
once again by everyone who's working there and

605
00:44:52.719 --> 00:44:58.119
just like it made it there run
that track or run the train right on

606
00:44:58.159 --> 00:45:01.320
the track. I I want to
say no that with Andy, like you're

607
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:06.079
you were saying just like that the
level of nerves building up while you're waiting.

608
00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:10.679
A couple of things with that one
is one where I was so nervous.

609
00:45:10.760 --> 00:45:16.000
That was really our practice day the
first Monday UM and when they introduced

610
00:45:16.199 --> 00:45:19.360
Buzzy as the host and he comes
out, we do like he wanted to

611
00:45:19.360 --> 00:45:22.079
do a little bit more reps than
than I had with when Alex was the

612
00:45:22.159 --> 00:45:25.960
host, and my for that one, mya, my legs were just like

613
00:45:27.199 --> 00:45:31.760
actually shaking and I had to hold
on to the electorn studying myself, and

614
00:45:31.840 --> 00:45:36.000
it was it was all quite a
bit better for the for the actual taping.

615
00:45:36.159 --> 00:45:39.239
But like with with Andy, when
you were there, like I always

616
00:45:39.239 --> 00:45:44.400
saw you as being like so cool
and collected on stage and then well no,

617
00:45:44.639 --> 00:45:46.960
but then you you were expressing while
we're all sitting there. You're just

618
00:45:47.079 --> 00:45:51.039
like, man, I'm just freaking
out because we were all freaking out.

619
00:45:51.039 --> 00:45:53.119
It's just like you're contained and you
can't do anything about it. And then

620
00:45:53.280 --> 00:45:54.960
I was like, okay, maybe
I have a little bit of a shot.

621
00:45:55.039 --> 00:45:59.519
And then we get up there and
then you're just like it just locks

622
00:45:59.559 --> 00:46:01.400
in for you and I'm like,
oh shit, And then you kind of

623
00:46:01.480 --> 00:46:04.800
didn't You just kind of stop all
over me in that first round and it

624
00:46:04.880 --> 00:46:07.840
was so it's like, you know, I was glad I could get those

625
00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:09.840
almost back to back day doubles as
Oh yeah, yeah, it was just

626
00:46:09.880 --> 00:46:14.079
an incredible tournament. I can't wait
again. And like I'm I'm slowly but

627
00:46:14.199 --> 00:46:16.159
surely befriending all of all of you
guys, and now that you guys are

628
00:46:16.199 --> 00:46:20.239
all in cohoots with each other,
I'm excited to have each and every one

629
00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:22.599
of them come back on and and
bring one of their friends or enemies from

630
00:46:22.679 --> 00:46:27.400
the Tournament of Champions and have these
grudge matches or rematches because it's, uh,

631
00:46:27.559 --> 00:46:30.000
it's too fun. Oh, there's
the belt, kind of do it.

632
00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:31.119
He's showing the belt. You can't
see it at home, but there

633
00:46:31.239 --> 00:46:37.280
is a Jeopardy Championship belt that's like
a wrestler's belt. It's got Sam Kavanaugh's

634
00:46:37.360 --> 00:46:40.920
name on it. Yeah it was
again. Yeah, if you go to

on the social media Twitter and Instagram

640
00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:06.679
at Andy t Would. That's Andy
t Would on the social media stuff.

641
00:47:06.719 --> 00:47:10.039
And yeah, thanks for sharing all
of your stories about Jeopardy Fellows. It's

642
00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:15.679
it's so nice to humanize you guys
even a little bit more. But what

643
00:47:15.039 --> 00:47:19.440
a pleasure and surprise to have you
guys on. It's just been it's been

644
00:47:19.599 --> 00:47:25.239
lovely. And look at that.
We're tied at eighteen going in to our

645
00:47:25.559 --> 00:47:34.079
final round, which is the Theodore
Double Duty Radcliff round Round four. The

646
00:47:34.440 --> 00:47:38.960
double Duty points are doubled. It's
anyone's game. They're eighteen big points on

647
00:47:39.159 --> 00:47:44.920
the board in round for your final
round of you should Know Better, and

648
00:47:45.039 --> 00:47:46.079
this is the theme round. I
think this is the first time we're doing

649
00:47:46.119 --> 00:47:50.280
a theme round, and I hope
to do it again down the road.

650
00:47:50.320 --> 00:47:52.320
But this is how it works.
The first eight questions of this round are

651
00:47:52.360 --> 00:47:58.199
going to be kind of general knowledge. Question Question nine will be what is

652
00:47:58.239 --> 00:48:01.400
the theme? So you should see
the theme within your answers. So if

653
00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:04.960
you can find out what the theme
is early on, it should help you

654
00:48:05.119 --> 00:48:07.800
answer your questions and vice versa.
If you start getting a lot of these

655
00:48:07.840 --> 00:48:09.800
answers, it should tell you what
the theme is. So they help each

656
00:48:09.840 --> 00:48:13.639
other, so one can help the
other. So if you don't know it

657
00:48:13.760 --> 00:48:15.800
right away, you might get it
by figuring one of these things out.

658
00:48:15.960 --> 00:48:21.440
So do you have any questions?
Gentlemen? Are you ready? Ready?

659
00:48:21.960 --> 00:48:28.039
Eighteen all, as we enter the
double duty Radcliff round. Here's question number

660
00:48:28.079 --> 00:48:32.679
one one out of nine? Who
is the host on NBC's The Voice.

661
00:48:35.119 --> 00:48:39.239
Who is the host not the coaches? Who is the host of NBC's The

662
00:48:39.519 --> 00:48:46.239
Voice. I don't need the coaches
names the host? Question number two?

663
00:48:47.280 --> 00:48:54.039
Who was the first ever African American
heavyweight champion in boxing? Who was the

664
00:48:54.199 --> 00:49:00.519
first ever African American boxing champ heavyweight
boxing champ? Last name will Suffice?

665
00:49:01.159 --> 00:49:07.840
Name the first ever African American heavyweight
champion in boxing for number two? Question

666
00:49:07.960 --> 00:49:10.960
number three is a layup for you? For you two, I believe the

667
00:49:12.039 --> 00:49:17.039
Basilica della Segrada Familia is located in
what city? I need the name of

668
00:49:17.119 --> 00:49:24.840
the city where the Basilica de la
Segrada Familia is located anim that city for

669
00:49:25.039 --> 00:49:30.760
number three. Now, in the
Lightning round, we had a little tip

670
00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:35.159
of the cap to some video games
that we probably played a little bit during

671
00:49:35.199 --> 00:49:39.119
our younger years. Question number four. In that same world, the four

672
00:49:39.239 --> 00:49:50.440
ghosts in pac Man were Blinky Pinky
inky, and then this one. I

673
00:49:50.559 --> 00:49:52.800
will give you a clue. It
does not rhyme with the first three.

674
00:49:53.880 --> 00:49:59.079
The four ghosts in the pac Man
franchise were Blinky Pinky inky, and then

675
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:02.519
named the fourth? Who is the
fourth ghost in the pac Man franchise?

676
00:50:05.039 --> 00:50:08.039
Question number five, Question number five
out of nine in the final round here,

677
00:50:08.199 --> 00:50:14.840
James Duhan famously portrayed what character and
chief engineer on the original Star Trek

678
00:50:15.119 --> 00:50:22.039
James Duhan famously portrayed what character and
chief engineer on the original Star Trek TV

679
00:50:22.280 --> 00:50:28.880
series? That is your question number
five. Again, this is a theme

680
00:50:29.039 --> 00:50:31.760
round, so look within your answers
to try to come up with that theme.

681
00:50:32.960 --> 00:50:36.320
If you figure out the theme,
it could help you answer some of

682
00:50:36.360 --> 00:50:40.000
these questions you might not know right
away. Question number six is a geography

683
00:50:40.079 --> 00:50:45.159
question. Aman am m A n
is the capital city of what country?

684
00:50:46.400 --> 00:50:57.719
Aman is the capital of what country? Four number six. Question number seven,

685
00:50:57.800 --> 00:51:01.320
we're going to the movies. We're
going to the movie What actor lost

686
00:51:01.400 --> 00:51:07.000
an incredible amount of weight to portray
the skeletal main character in the independent film

687
00:51:07.079 --> 00:51:14.039
The Machinist. What actor lost a
tremendous amount of weight to portray the skeletal

688
00:51:14.159 --> 00:51:20.199
main character in the independent film The
Machinist. We're getting down to it.

689
00:51:20.360 --> 00:51:22.880
This is your final kind of general
knowledge question because number nine is going to

690
00:51:22.960 --> 00:51:29.000
be what is the theme of this
round? So question number eight is this

691
00:51:30.199 --> 00:51:36.599
on Sesame Street name the full bodied
Muppet dog that peeled around with Big Bird.

692
00:51:37.840 --> 00:51:42.719
So one word name on Sesame Street. Name the full bodied Muppet dog

693
00:51:42.920 --> 00:51:49.360
that palled around with Big Bird.
And then question number nine is what is

694
00:51:49.480 --> 00:51:55.400
the theme of the Theodore Double Duty
Radcliff Round? Your theme round? Who?

695
00:51:55.719 --> 00:51:59.599
This seems like a tough one,
so this could be anyone's game points

696
00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:02.599
or double in this round. Let's
go through our answers in the Double Duty

697
00:52:02.679 --> 00:52:08.719
Radcliff round. Question number one,
who is the host of NBC's The Voice

698
00:52:08.880 --> 00:52:13.800
Sam What did you put? I
wish I had a TV? I don't

699
00:52:13.800 --> 00:52:16.000
know? Carson Daly? Andy?
What did you put for number one?

700
00:52:16.679 --> 00:52:23.559
Craig Robinson? The answer is the
what is it? Omnipresent? Carson Daly

701
00:52:23.880 --> 00:52:29.119
is the Carson Daly has been the
host of the bois a very long time.

702
00:52:30.039 --> 00:52:32.760
He's not a coach. He just
comes down and says, your song

703
00:52:32.920 --> 00:52:37.800
begins now. That's pretty much all
he does and cheers off on the sidelines.

704
00:52:37.079 --> 00:52:42.840
Great Gig Carson Daley is the answer
for number one. Question number two,

705
00:52:42.920 --> 00:52:49.400
Name the first ever African American heavyweight
champion in boxing? Andy Wood hoping

706
00:52:49.519 --> 00:52:53.199
it is Jack Johnson, Sam Kavanaugh? What did you put? I put

707
00:52:53.320 --> 00:53:00.320
Joe Lewis. The correct answer is
Papa Jack Johnson. Papa Jack. I

708
00:53:00.440 --> 00:53:05.960
believe he won the title around nineteen
ten, fourth of July of nineteen ten,

709
00:53:06.079 --> 00:53:10.039
when he beat the Great White Hope
Jim Jeffries. Question number three,

710
00:53:10.119 --> 00:53:15.480
The Basilica de la Sagrada Familia is
located in what city, mister Cavanaugh?

711
00:53:15.880 --> 00:53:23.000
Barcelona, Barthelas, Andy Wood?
What did you put? Blaa? You

712
00:53:23.079 --> 00:53:29.920
guys get two points for pronouncing the
sea correctly, Barthelona. That's the famous

713
00:53:30.440 --> 00:53:34.280
basilica that's been under construction for a
million years and will continue to be so

714
00:53:34.519 --> 00:53:40.000
forever. Question number four video game
question. The four ghosts in the pac

715
00:53:40.079 --> 00:53:46.920
Man franchise were Blinky, Pinky,
Inky, and who Andy. My advanced

716
00:53:46.960 --> 00:53:51.800
age might have given me an edge
on this one. Clyde The Glide,

717
00:53:52.599 --> 00:53:54.960
Clyde the Glide? Sam? What
did you put? I also put Clyde?

718
00:53:55.159 --> 00:54:01.039
Oh damn it. You guys are
smart. It is wide Blinkie Pinky

719
00:54:01.199 --> 00:54:06.159
inky and Clyde? Great? Is
it? Miss? Background? Was Sue?

720
00:54:06.480 --> 00:54:08.920
That was that the fourth one?
Sue? Maybe they replaced Clyde with

721
00:54:09.000 --> 00:54:13.360
Sue. Fantastic that. I thought
that was a That was a tough one

722
00:54:13.400 --> 00:54:15.320
and you guys nailed it, So
that's great. Question number five, James

723
00:54:15.360 --> 00:54:20.519
Duhan famously portrayed what character and chief
engineer on the original Star Trek? Sam?

724
00:54:21.280 --> 00:54:25.880
Scotty? Andy? What did you
put as well? Scotty Montgomery?

725
00:54:27.119 --> 00:54:32.159
Scotty Scott is your correct answer for
number five. Question number six, Aman

726
00:54:32.360 --> 00:54:37.159
is the capital of what country?
Andy Wood? Eric Jordan? Sam Kavanaugh?

727
00:54:37.199 --> 00:54:42.159
What did you put? It is
the mid East country of Jordan.

728
00:54:42.719 --> 00:54:45.760
Question number seven? What actor lost
a ton of weight to portray the skeletal

729
00:54:45.840 --> 00:54:51.360
main character in the film The Machinist? Sam? Christian Bale? Christian Bale

730
00:54:51.440 --> 00:54:53.480
is your answer, Andy Wood?
What did you put Christian Bale? As

731
00:54:53.480 --> 00:54:58.440
well? God, you guys are
killing it. It is very famously Christian

732
00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:00.199
Bale. Where they said, like
dude, you're skinny enough, and he

733
00:55:00.280 --> 00:55:02.960
was like, no, no,
no. The script says skeletal. So

734
00:55:04.400 --> 00:55:07.920
he ate like an apple a day
for a month or two and got down

735
00:55:07.159 --> 00:55:13.480
really crazy skin and bones, very
frightening. Question number eight on Sesame Street

736
00:55:13.559 --> 00:55:17.159
name the full bodied Muppet dog that
piled around with Big Bird Andy. This

737
00:55:17.400 --> 00:55:22.880
was based on the whatever this is
an educated guess, and I'm very much

738
00:55:22.920 --> 00:55:25.440
hoping it's Barkley. Barkley is your
guest, Sam? What did you put?

739
00:55:27.159 --> 00:55:30.119
I think we have a similar theme
guess because I put Dennis Rodman.

740
00:55:34.559 --> 00:55:37.920
Yes, that is a great guess, the Worm. It was not the

741
00:55:38.039 --> 00:55:45.840
Worm or Dennis Rodman or Carmen Electra. It was Barkley the dog. And

742
00:55:45.119 --> 00:55:50.679
question number nine, what is the
theme of this here? Theme round?

743
00:55:50.719 --> 00:55:52.400
And the double Duty Radcliffe Round?
Sam Kavanaugh, what did you put for

744
00:55:52.519 --> 00:55:59.400
the theme? So? I have
the Chicago Bulls slash basketball, so depended

745
00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:00.920
how to specific If you want to
go, you can give it to me.

746
00:56:00.960 --> 00:56:02.840
You're nut fantastic, Andy Wood.
What did you put? I went

747
00:56:02.960 --> 00:56:08.239
specifically the dream team at the ninety
two Olympics. The correct answer is the

748
00:56:08.440 --> 00:56:16.360
nineteen ninety two Dream team in Barcelona, Spain that had Chuck Daily, Johnson,

749
00:56:16.480 --> 00:56:21.679
Magic, Irvan Magic Johnson. Barcelona
was the city they played in,

750
00:56:21.840 --> 00:56:24.880
Clyde the Glode, Drexler, Scottie
Pippen, Michael Jordan, Christian Latner was

751
00:56:24.920 --> 00:56:29.159
the weird college person that they led
on the team of all their other stars

752
00:56:29.239 --> 00:56:35.960
with Patrick Ewing and David Robinson and
Larry Bird and Chris Mullen, John Stockton,

753
00:56:36.079 --> 00:56:38.599
Carl Malone. Incredible team, the
best of all time. And yeah,

754
00:56:38.719 --> 00:56:44.639
Charles Barkley. The theme we were
going for is the nineteen ninety two

755
00:56:45.599 --> 00:56:49.960
Dream Team. So, Sam,
you finished with thirty points and Andy,

756
00:56:50.239 --> 00:56:55.800
you've totally redeemed yourself. You are
the smartest person in the world for one

757
00:56:55.880 --> 00:57:00.559
week with a grand total of thirty
four. Walter Payton's number right up there,

758
00:57:01.639 --> 00:57:05.760
sweetness. Thirty four to thirty.
What a hell of a game that

759
00:57:05.920 --> 00:57:08.039
was. That was fun, gentle, so fun. Yeah, great questions.

760
00:57:08.440 --> 00:57:12.760
Good, I'm glad. I'm glad
to hear that's It's always tough to

761
00:57:12.880 --> 00:57:15.840
like thread that needle of like,
I don't want to be a dick,

762
00:57:15.159 --> 00:57:20.440
but I want it to be fun. So that was a well threaded needle.

763
00:57:20.760 --> 00:57:22.840
Okay, good, good, well
rounded. You guys had fun again.

764
00:57:23.280 --> 00:57:27.599
We're gonna you're playing UM. We
have Andy Wood here. You can

765
00:57:27.639 --> 00:57:30.840
follow him at Andy t Wood on
Twitter and Instagram. He's playing for Against

766
00:57:30.960 --> 00:57:35.880
Malaria, great charity. Do you
have any other connections to that charity or

767
00:57:35.920 --> 00:57:38.960
why you picked it? Andy?
It's really just um one of the highest

768
00:57:39.039 --> 00:57:45.000
recommended charities according to places like give
well that are just about best bang for

769
00:57:45.079 --> 00:57:46.480
your buck. I don't have a
direct connection to malaria, but it is

770
00:57:46.639 --> 00:57:50.360
a great cause where a little bit
of money goes a long way and directly

771
00:57:50.719 --> 00:57:55.119
helps save lives. And it's in
a simple fix tootting netting can prevent them

772
00:57:55.199 --> 00:58:00.599
while they sleep of not getting malaria. Fantastic charity. We're happy to give

773
00:58:00.599 --> 00:58:05.800
a donation to them in your name
as well as Unicorn Riot. Sam Kavanaugh

774
00:58:06.000 --> 00:58:08.760
is you can see him at Sam
Underscore Kavanaugh on Twitter. He's playing for

775
00:58:08.960 --> 00:58:14.320
Unicorn Riot and again, tell tell
the people what Unicorn Riot does. They

776
00:58:14.800 --> 00:58:20.039
send out reporters to places that are
maybe underreported. So in a lot of

777
00:58:20.840 --> 00:58:24.039
the civil unrest in the George Floyd
protests here, there's a lot of people

778
00:58:24.079 --> 00:58:28.400
in the ground there that really helped
educate me of kind of what's going on,

779
00:58:28.519 --> 00:58:34.440
and I think really help shine a
light into some dark places. Fantastic.

780
00:58:34.480 --> 00:58:37.960
We're so excited to be giving to
both of these charities. But the

781
00:58:37.079 --> 00:58:43.039
game is not over. We're heading
to the final thing where I get to

782
00:58:43.079 --> 00:58:46.559
play against my heroes, my Tournament
of Champions heroes, Me and Andy Wood

783
00:58:46.599 --> 00:58:52.440
get to go head to head in
the final throwdown. The final throwdown.

784
00:58:54.199 --> 00:58:58.280
Now, what's going to happen is
Annie, our producer, is going to

785
00:58:58.400 --> 00:59:02.199
share her screen and give a question. It could be anything that she came

786
00:59:02.280 --> 00:59:06.360
up with. Andy, you get
first DIBs to come up with an answer.

787
00:59:06.400 --> 00:59:08.360
I can either agree with you or
come up with my own. But

788
00:59:08.960 --> 00:59:13.400
here we go, Annie, our
producer. I've never seen this question.

789
00:59:13.519 --> 00:59:15.360
It could be anything, So let's
let's see what it is and I will

790
00:59:15.400 --> 00:59:20.119
read it to you. Andy.
Oh my gosh. Okay, here's the

791
00:59:20.239 --> 00:59:24.840
question. What is the best selling
board game of all time? What is

792
00:59:24.880 --> 00:59:30.440
the best selling board game of all
time? That sounds very simple, but

793
00:59:30.599 --> 00:59:35.960
it's not. Andy. I'll give
you a few seconds to come up with

794
00:59:36.159 --> 00:59:42.000
your guests. I've got a top
three, and I'm hoping that this game's

795
00:59:42.159 --> 00:59:50.360
internationality. I hope it's Clue Slash
Cluto. Oh man, this is tough,

796
00:59:50.400 --> 00:59:52.360
because yeah, I have a thousand. I love board games and they're

797
00:59:52.400 --> 00:59:58.519
all flying through my head right now. I don't think it's payday or go

798
00:59:58.679 --> 01:00:01.599
to the head of the class or
Hi, ho cherio. Could it be

799
01:00:01.760 --> 01:00:07.719
Pizza Party? Remember Pizza Party?
I do remember Pizza Party. Hmm.

800
01:00:08.400 --> 01:00:13.440
A game that anyone could be best
selling board game of all times. I

801
01:00:13.559 --> 01:00:15.079
want to you know, Monopoly is
always right there, but I don't want

802
01:00:15.119 --> 01:00:20.280
to say Monopoly. I'm going to
go with Scrabble, a game that most

803
01:00:20.320 --> 01:00:24.039
people can play. I'm gonna go
with Scrabble. So Producer Annie reveal our

804
01:00:24.159 --> 01:00:28.480
answer. We have what was your
What was your guess? Mine was clue.

805
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:31.320
Clue and Scrabble were our guesses.
Here is our answer. We're gonna

806
01:00:31.360 --> 01:00:36.519
learn a little bit about what it
is. Oh, okay, horse the

807
01:00:36.639 --> 01:00:39.800
correct answer. We were both wrong. It is chess that is considered a

808
01:00:39.880 --> 01:00:44.599
board game. And here is a
little info about chess. There are three

809
01:00:44.679 --> 01:00:50.639
million units sold annually, three million
chess boards sold yearly. It dates back

810
01:00:50.719 --> 01:00:54.559
to twelve hundred a d. The
folding chessboard was invented by a priest trying

811
01:00:54.599 --> 01:01:00.639
to hide his gameplay. Did not
know that that's awesome. You're going to

812
01:01:00.760 --> 01:01:06.840
hell. Padre and the cast from
Queen's Gambit memorized and played all moves.

813
01:01:07.199 --> 01:01:09.559
Wow. So we learned a little
bit about chess. Of course, it's

814
01:01:09.719 --> 01:01:15.679
chess. Son of a gun,
Andy, would you remain the smartest person

815
01:01:15.760 --> 01:01:19.360
in the world for one See,
we had a good time. It was

816
01:01:19.440 --> 01:01:22.079
great to have a nice little Jeopardy
reunion and talk about our favorite show and

817
01:01:22.159 --> 01:01:25.760
