Speaker 1: Yeah, it upset the others a lot. But some people
Speaker 1: will say it's technology or knowledge that he gave to humanity.
Speaker 1: I would probably be inclined to accept those answers. But
Speaker 1: it's in the form of fire, so that you know,
Speaker 1: humanity could settle and tame the land and grow as
Speaker 1: a civilization because they hadn't you know, figured out fire yet.
Speaker 2: That's a big one.

Speaker 1: country just won the twenty twenty six Men's FIFA World
Speaker 1: Cup Spain.
Speaker 2: Question two, which twenty seventeen animated film starring John Cena
Speaker 2: and Kate McKinnon, follows a pacifist bull on his journey
Speaker 2: to return home from a bullfighting ranch. Ferdinand.
Speaker 1: Question three, whose expeditions were the first known European contact
Speaker 1: with the Caribbean in Central and South America, Christopher Columbus.
Speaker 2: And Your Big Bang question, whose face adorned the first
Speaker 2: US coin to bear the likeness of a foreign monarch,
Speaker 2: known for unifying Spain and being patrons of Columbus with
Speaker 2: her husband Ferdinand. It's Queen Isabella it's the eighteen ninety
Speaker 2: three Isabella Quarter.
Speaker 1: Now we did say first coin to have a monarch
Speaker 1: on there. There is a second coin that has had
Speaker 1: a monarch on it. The monarch is King Kamehamea of Hawaii.
Speaker 2: Very cool. I want that coin.
Speaker 1: It's much more recent than eighteen ninety three.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, the Isabella Quarter probably is a special collector's.
Speaker 1: Items now, yeah, totally.
Speaker 2: I was lucky enough to get to go to Spain
Speaker 2: when I was in high school and some of my
Speaker 2: classmates went to a bullfight and I wanted to go,
Speaker 2: but I didn't know. I just had seen like KR
Speaker 2: tunes of bullfights and stuff, so I thought it was
Speaker 2: just a man who dances around a bull and shows,
Speaker 2: you know, the little flag flag to get it going.
Speaker 2: And I was like, well, it seems like the chances
Speaker 2: of seeing the man getting injured are low, so I
Speaker 2: think it'd be cool to go and have that experience. Luckily,
Speaker 2: my mother was like, they kill the bull, they stab it,
Speaker 2: it dies. I don't want to see that at all.
Speaker 2: So no, I have not seen a bullfight, and I
Speaker 2: don't think I ever will. I think you could argue
Speaker 2: that all bulls are pacifists that sounds like a cute movie. Anyway,
Speaker 2: Sorry to be a bubber about bullfighting.
Speaker 1: I think it's important to know. I mean here in
Speaker 1: the States, I feel like we haven't heard that growing up.
Speaker 1: When you see the cartoons and stuff, you just think, Oh,
Speaker 1: they're just doing their thing. Yeah, maybe it's getting more known.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it is important to keep that
Speaker 1: in mind if you're thinking about wanting to see one,
Speaker 1: since it's not, you know, generally taught.
Speaker 2: Yes, I know what you're in for when you want
Speaker 2: to go see something. I mean, I would have been
Speaker 2: horrified if I had. I've been like, what am I watching?
Speaker 2: Why am I seeing this?
Speaker 1: And I think we just heard on an old QI
Speaker 1: episode that the bulls don't go after the red color
Speaker 1: of the cape that they wave. They go after the
Speaker 1: movement of it. Yeah, is what they said, right, So
Speaker 1: that's interesting.
Speaker 2: Yeah. They also said that the Robin hates the color red.
Speaker 2: And we had a funny experience at the beginning of
Speaker 2: this summer where Robin's when at certain stages of their
Speaker 2: life become extra crazy and extra territorial, and Robin decided
Speaker 2: to pick a fight with my sister's car. It would
Speaker 2: jump onto the side mirror, then jump onto the window,
Speaker 2: look at the mirror, attack it, fall off, and repeat
Speaker 2: it over and over again. Well, it actually it started
Speaker 2: by attacking our window. So there was a little period
Speaker 2: of time where every morning David and I were waking
Speaker 2: up to the sound of our robin throwing itself at
Speaker 2: our bedroom window and we're like, what is happening? And
Speaker 2: we finally had to just tape up our window with
Speaker 2: newspaper because we didn't want I mean, first of all,
Speaker 2: it's not the best way to wake up, but second
Speaker 2: of all, we didn't want the poor little thing to
Speaker 2: hurt itself, so we had to tape it up and
Speaker 2: leave it taped up. And finally it's like, all right,
Speaker 2: I beat this window now to the next. And so yeah,
Speaker 2: my sister had to do all sorts of things to
Speaker 2: try to get it to stop attacking the car. Luckily,
Speaker 2: it has a grown out of this phase in our
Speaker 2: window in her car back to normal, but it was
Speaker 2: it was kind of annoying, but it was also very
Speaker 2: funny in the Robins Fine, he survived his agro phase.
Speaker 1: Well, if you want to get into your agro phase

Speaker 2: Been Annie Flora quiz But yeah, I guess the eagle
Speaker 2: landing on the moon was as part of a congratulations
Speaker 2: to Apollo eleven. And just like the fire, it wasn't
Speaker 2: a real eagle that landed on the moon. Could you
Speaker 2: imagine if they had brought an eagle with them and
Speaker 2: put it an eagle in a little astronaut suit just
Speaker 2: to be extra patriotic.
Speaker 1: I can imagine that happening nowadays.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. Don't give him any ideas.
Speaker 1: Speaking of Prometheus, an eagle was the punishment. It would
Speaker 1: eat his liver every day as he was chained to
Speaker 1: a mountain, so Eagles and Prometheus already connected Danny.
Speaker 2: There we go
