10:12

So today, it is. All

10:15

quiz. Number forty

10:17

nine.

10:26

Okay. Let me get us all started off 49 the fun

10:28

one very good job brainy type quiz.

10:30

It's titled. Colin always has

10:32

titles for his quizzes, so I feel like I should have a

10:34

title for this one. I'm titling this quiz. Super

10:37

sugar, anything. So

10:40

I don't know if we ever told the story on the

10:42

podcast before, but I just

10:44

love this line now as a

10:46

parent. I wanna tell this this I'll I'll

10:47

tell this story again as I remember it

10:49

is that they there was a

10:52

serial that is now known as

10:54

golden crisp But back in the day,

10:56

it was known as Super Sugar

10:58

Crisp, and they this is that they'd advertised

11:01

this on television and Colin and his sister

11:03

saw the commercial for super sugar crisp

11:06

and they're like, oh my god, and ran

11:08

to their mom and said, Mom, can

11:10

you get a super sugar crisp and she

11:12

immediately responded I'm not getting you

11:14

super sugar anything. You

11:17

got it. That's right. Which

11:19

as a dad now, I think

11:21

that's such a perfect, you know,

11:23

turnaround. And

11:26

and, of course, a lot of parents eventually sort

11:28

of came to realize that they did not want super

11:30

sugar or anything. And so that the names

11:32

of these things first, it changed to just regular

11:35

sugar crisp. Just trying to just trying

11:37

to let people know that they they told down.

11:39

Okay. Let's step it down. And

11:41

then 49 to golden crisp, but so

11:44

many cereals at this time

11:46

get a similar thing because I mean,

11:48

sugar checks. Sugar checks,

11:50

sugar pops, or now corn pops, famously

11:53

sugar frosted flakes, and I just call across

11:55

the flakes, burning out on his honey smacks,

11:57

used to be sugar smacks. Mhmm. There's

12:00

this whole thing that everything was

12:01

sugar, cereal. And so that

12:04

alone does not acquisimate, but

12:06

I wanted this inspired me to

12:08

talk about products

12:10

that change their

12:12

name at some point during

12:14

their 49 cycle. So it's simple quiz.

12:17

Grab your Barnyard buzzers,

12:19

and get ready to buzz into the answers to some

12:21

of these questions about products that

12:24

were known by something and we're not we're

12:26

now known by something else. Okay. Which

12:28

is the one I want to serve. Okay. Here we go.

12:30

It's a great one. This hygiene

12:33

product was originally known

12:35

as baby gaze.

12:38

Oh oh. Colin,

12:41

that is q tips. That is

12:43

the humble q tip. Yes. It

12:46

called was originally on his baby

12:48

gaze,

12:49

GAYS.

12:51

So I thought I meant like a baby

12:53

gazing, like, staring at No.

12:55

You're not the No. You're

12:57

not the the the baby

13:00

days. They changed it

13:02

to q tips. The queue stands

13:04

for quality. So when you're shoving

13:06

those in your ear, there no. No.

13:08

That you're shoving quality in there.

13:11

Question number two. This

13:13

popular beverage advertised as

13:15

a relief for dyspepsia

13:17

was originally known as Brad's

13:20

drink.

13:23

That was Karen first. Pepsi Cola.

13:25

Pepsi Cola. Was invented in eighteen

13:28

ninety three by Caleb Bratham

13:31

who I guess was even known to was

13:33

known to his friends as Brad. He called

13:35

it Brad Brad's drink. Brad.

13:38

You imagine? It sounds like something that

13:40

a a

13:41

a high a college freshman makes for you

13:43

at a party that they

13:44

definitely Yeah.

13:49

What's in it? Yeah. Ever clear in

13:51

Nick Will. It's Bradstreet. Yeah. It

13:55

was advertised really for upset stomach

13:57

indigestion, which was that time was popularly

13:59

known as dyspepsia. And

14:01

so they then he changed it to Pepsi.

14:05

So in the is sticking around a

14:07

few years later in the nineteen twenties, Guaimed

14:10

Edwin Perkins produced a

14:13

liquid concentrate he called 49

14:15

snack and then he was able to figure

14:17

out a way to remove the liquid from this concentrate

14:20

leaving only a fine

14:22

powder, which he called this. Oh,

14:25

Karen. 49 dip?

14:27

It's not it's not fun dip. It's not

14:30

fun dip. Color. Is it

14:32

kool Aid? It is

14:33

kool Aid.

14:35

It is kool Aid, which originally

14:37

was spelled

14:38

kool Aid like ADE. As

14:40

in, like, you know, lemonade, but it's now

14:42

spelled AID like Band

14:44

Aid. I don't

14:45

know why. Yeah. Introduce me.

14:47

Yeah. That makes no sense. Question

14:50

49 the Plamo

14:53

company originally called this invention

14:55

a Pluto Platter.

14:59

Colin, that has got to be the

15:01

frisbee. It is the frisbee. It

15:04

is the frisbee. It's interesting because

15:06

mean, everybody agrees that there was that pie

15:08

company in Massachusetts.

15:10

Yeah.

15:10

Right. Right. Right. Right. Yeah.

15:12

But, like, what people seem to think happened

15:14

is that they they created, like,

15:17

the the the plastic flying disc,

15:19

you know. They called it the Pluto Platter,

15:21

but then the kids in that area

15:23

called it a

15:24

49. Because of the because

15:27

of the because of the game of throwing the the

15:29

the pipe pants

15:30

around. And then they renamed it to 49. But,

15:32

yeah, the Pluto Platter, originally. How

15:34

about that? The poo poo platter. The poo

15:36

poo platter. Question 49, this

15:38

breakfast food was

15:40

originally known as the pork

15:43

man toad

15:44

word, 49. I'm

15:47

sad. This

15:51

And then just in case you didn't hear me,

15:53

this breakfast food was originally

15:55

known by the Portman Toe word

15:59

49. 49. Oh.

16:01

But

16:01

you think I said? Like frothing.

16:04

FR0FFLES,

16:06

49. Ego. It's

16:08

Ego. It's Ego. So the

16:11

Ego was originally a

16:13

maiden name that this company made.

16:15

They called it Eggo because they put so many

16:17

eggs in it. But then

16:19

that was just their very popular brand

16:22

name, like generally for the company. So

16:24

they bring on Eggo. They call them 49, the

16:26

Puerto Rico. Froafels. 49

16:30

the makers of Eggo. Yeah. From the makers

16:32

of Eggo, the Eggiest mayo. And

16:34

then they just started calling those Eggo

16:36

brand waffles also

16:37

because Eggo just like a curry.

16:39

Popular, strong branding. Yep. You

16:41

know what? Chris, you

16:43

you have just scratched an itch that I didn't

16:46

know that I've had 49, like, thirty years.

16:48

Oh, like Why is it called Eggo? I

16:51

I just I just always

16:52

assumed, like, I don't know, maybe they were the the

16:54

first one to use Egg or something. I don't know. I

16:56

never

16:56

buy it.

16:57

That is actually sounds I need to

16:59

check if there are indeed eggs.

17:02

Or are there eggs in Hego?

17:04

Yeah. Right. I mean, even if they

17:06

are, it wouldn't make them special. I It

17:09

does say it contains wheat milk,

17:11

egg, and soy ingredients. Sure.

17:13

Okay.

17:14

Okay. Okay. Right? Yeah. Next

17:16

next question. Question number six.

17:19

Rather than give you the original name, I'm just

17:21

gonna see if you know this one. By what

17:23

name were cheerios

17:25

originally.

17:28

Oh, I've read this before. I

17:30

Yeah. I'm gonna be so

17:32

angry when you say it.

17:34

Yep. Yep. I We we can brainstorm

17:36

this, Collin. I wonder if it's, like, a really

17:38

boring name or if it's, like, a too outrageous

17:41

name.

17:41

Oh, well, they're

17:43

made with oats. We know that.

17:46

Cheery oats.

20:00

Here's here's one for you. These

20:03

three young ladies were originally known

20:17

Fictional characters. Oh. Recently

20:19

known as the whiplash girls. Colin?

20:22

Is it the Powerpuff girls? It is the

20:24

Powerpuff girls. In

20:27

the original, like, animated short

20:29

that was done. They were the Whoop ass

20:31

girls. And when

20:33

they decided, oh, we're gonna make this into a

20:35

TV show for children, that that name

20:37

did not exactly why. Oh, was it originally

20:39

not for children? We can what no.

20:41

It was originally done by a Cal Arts

20:44

student. Mhmm. And it's like the it

20:46

was the same sort of back story is like

20:49

they're being created in the

20:50

lab, but then he added and this makes so

20:52

much more sense now. He added a can

20:54

of web ass.

20:56

I would

20:57

the scientists made them -- Yes. -- into

20:58

the okay.

20:59

Yes. Exactly. Yes.

21:01

Couple of questions left for you guys. Bib

21:04

label, litigated lemon

21:07

lime soda. It was the original

21:09

49 of any for this product, Colin, The

21:12

the lithium

21:13

just made a light go

21:14

off. Is is that 7up? I feel like

21:16

it is 7up. Oh. You

21:19

used to have lithium in it. Sure.

21:21

You know, not it not everything can have cocaine

21:23

in

21:23

it. You gotta Right. Exactly. Exactly. With a

21:25

little lithium from time. You got it exactly. You gotta

21:28

if you're gonna a carbonated drink and it's the eighteen

21:30

hundreds. You have to put some

21:32

drug in it, but it's gotta be it's gotta be

21:34

a drug that somebody else is in YouTube. Exactly.

21:37

Yep. Okay.

21:39

Fans of this candy bar

21:41

in the United Kingdom were outraged

21:44

when they changed its name to match

21:47

the US version,

21:48

which

21:49

is called Snickers. Karen.

21:52

Marathon. Oh,

21:54

Karen knows her foreign

21:56

candy back to front. So

21:57

which one came 49? Was like Snickers 49 and

22:00

then introduced as marathon or

22:02

I believe that Snickers came first because it

22:04

was only in the UK that it was called Marathon.

22:06

Just don't write to me if

22:08

if -- Yeah. -- the other country as well. But generally,

22:10

it was you know If it was, like, our cop like, they couldn't

22:13

get the name. Maybe. Or maybe

22:15

it it sounded too much like nippers. Right.

22:18

That's true. It was like all about, like, oh, this

22:20

is a candy bar for energy.

22:23

You get yep. Go away. Yeah. Yep. Because

22:25

it has those peanuts. That's what makes it different

22:27

than the -- Yes. -- the the milky way

22:29

22:29

Yeah. -- doesn't do a thing for you. Yeah.

22:32

But you Yeah. The snickers with the three peanuts

22:34

in there.

22:35

And those -- That is filled up.

22:38

-- more outrage in the United Kingdom.

22:41

When this product's name was

22:43

changed

22:44

to, I can't believe

22:46

it's so good for everything.

22:51

I can't believe it's peanut butter. What

22:53

if it's just butter? Alright.

22:55

Nobody is buzz Sorry. Sorry. Yeah. You're right.

22:57

I'm not committed. We're we're just in shock

22:59

of the yeah.

23:02

I'm gonna say, I can't believe it's

23:04

not butter Yes. I can't they did

23:07

not yes. They did not change the name of

23:09

butter, but they did change the name of I

23:11

can't believe it's not butter to I

23:13

can't believe it's so good for everything.

23:16

Was this, like, a temporary, like, marketing

23:18

-- Yeah. -- that was a

23:19

for so yeah. No. It was intended

23:22

to be an app absolutely was going to be a permanent

23:25

change. But it

23:27

was so reviled that they

23:29

that they changed it back. Alright.

23:32

One more question. If I

23:35

was a time traveler from eighteen

23:37

seventy, and I asked you

23:39

to please go to the general

23:42

store and pick me up

23:44

a container of wonder

23:46

jelly. With what product

23:49

23:51

with? Karen.

23:54

Vaseline. Vaseline. Yes.

23:58

Well done originally known

24:00

as wonder

24:01

jelly. Did you did you know that?

24:03

Yeah. Wonder jelly is confusing

24:06

because it also sounds like a food. Right.

24:08

It does sound like something you would put on you put it

24:10

on wonder bread, you know? Yes. So wonder

24:12

bread is wonder bread.

24:13

Oh my god. Yeah. That's

24:15

why I wonder why I'm in the hospital. Year

24:24

by year, the the dad jokes just

24:27

It just gets stronger. It's it's

24:29

exponentially. Yeah. Not too

24:31

powerful. I

24:36

can't. Oh,

24:40

man.

24:41

Alright. Thank you, Chris.

24:45

Well, Colin, you have a special

24:47

quiz. I do. I do. And you know

24:49

my trademark 49 is I had

24:51

a lot of fun putting this way together. And

24:55

III really did. III am

24:57

I am I am never lying to

24:59

you both. But there is a very special

25:02

twist on this quiz that I put together. III

25:04

had some help from a computerized friend that

25:06

I am not referring to

25:08

Elvis This is not a music quiz.

25:11

For the first time in our

25:13

show's history, I got some help

25:15

from a chat bot. And 49,

25:18

of course, you guys can probably

25:20

see where I'm at. High point. I got some help

25:23

from ChatGPT. The

25:25

listeners at this point are probably having one

25:27

of 49 reactions, which is, oh,

25:29

cool. Another chat, GPT story.

25:31

I love these. Or oh,

25:33

man, another chat GPT story.

25:36

I don't know. Or I have

25:38

no idea what you're talking about. What is a chat

25:40

GPT? When

25:42

do you guys wanna when do you guys wanna give,

25:44

like, a a thumbnail description here? How would how would you

25:46

describe it to somebody who has never heard of chat

25:48

GPT? In the most basic terms,

25:51

there's a bot that pretty much

25:53

is trained to generate

25:56

writing and it learned from

25:59

so many

25:59

sources, books, code

26:01

-- Mhmm. -- these scripts, songs

26:04

-- The Internet. -- the Internet.

26:07

One of the great, like, novel

26:09

kind of breakthrough

26:11

49 uses. Certainly, if you're anywhere

26:13

in social media, is you know,

26:16

give me this in the style of that.

26:18

And and it's seemingly

26:20

endless combinations and it it it is

26:23

game. Like, if you ask it to read

26:25

the constitution, you know, and the style of jar

26:27

jar banks. It will absolutely it is up

26:29

it is up for

26:30

it. It will do it for you.

26:32

I saw it past the bar Right.

26:35

Yes. So I decided

26:37

to work with my colleague, Chad

26:39

GP. You're intern. Yeah.

26:42

To assemble a quiz for our show. I

26:44

felt like I was its editor.

26:46

And, Chris, I know you've been an editor, you've been

26:48

edited, and I tried to take this dance

26:50

that the editor's job is to make the

26:52

writer look good. Every word

26:54

that you hear of this quiz and batch percent

26:57

was generated by chat, GPT, I

26:59

did not I did not write. I

27:01

did not copy edit. I didn't

27:04

I I all I did was I

27:06

I asked it leading questions, and I tried

27:08

to sort of engage in a dialogue

27:10

with it. I ran into some really interesting

27:12

twists along the

27:13

way. So I have a a ten question

27:15

quiz. Here is the original prompt

27:18

that I typed into channel. Oh, okay. Okay.

27:20

This is the prompt word for word.

27:22

Mhmm. Create a ten question

27:24

trivia quiz about famous depictions

27:27

of AI in movies, comics,

27:29

literature, or on television. The

27:32

questions should be moderately difficult

27:34

but not beyond the reach of someone well

27:36

versed in pop

27:37

culture. That

27:39

was wow. That's good, specific.

27:42

The the grim joke maybe is is

27:44

that, you know, our jobs are not gonna be replaced,

27:46

but just our jobs are now gonna become writing prompts

27:48

for the AI. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

27:51

It generated ten questions. Very quickly.

27:54

I have to say it did a great job.

27:56

I did have to tweak I had to

27:58

work with it on about half

28:01

the questions. Okay. Really just

28:03

just to help with avoid ambiguity or

28:06

maybe slight kind of

28:08

correction, but It did

28:10

a fantastic job. So here we go. We're gonna dive into

28:12

a

28:12

quiz. Get your Barnyard buzzers ready. Hold

28:14

on. Yes. Didn't give you the

28:16

answers, though. So I asked it to Jenny's

28:18

questions and it did, gave me ten

28:20

questions, and I'm like, oh, these are really good.

28:22

I was like, oh, wait. Can you also please

28:24

provide the answer And it did not it didn't give

28:26

me the answers the first time. So I had to ask you the second

28:28

question. Oh, I see. Okay. Yeah.

28:31

Once I did that, it caught

28:32

on. And so in subsequent, revisions

28:35

of the questions, it would provide the answer with the

28:37

question. I I didn't have to tell it to do that

28:39

again. Okay. Another question. Yeah.

28:42

Are the answers that it provided Correct.

28:45

You know what mean? Like, did you have to double check

28:48

49, you know, are we trying to guess what the answer

28:50

that the bot is

28:50

giving? I worked with it to make it

28:53

a good quiz. So but

28:55

III I'll follow-up with you guys after the

28:57

quiz and give you some of the the the little interesting

28:59

points here in my collaboration. Okay.

29:03

Ten question trivia quiz. Yes. Famous depictions

29:06

of AI, movies, comics, literature, and

29:08

television. Here we go. Get your Barnyard

29:10

buzzers ready. Number

29:12

one, In the nineteen eighty

29:14

two film Blade Runner, what

29:17

was the name of one of the sentient

29:19

androids or replicants?

29:23

No, jeez. Karen. Rachel.

29:28

I will accept Rachel. Yes. That's

29:30

right. Yes. Chris, do you wanna name another

29:32

one here? Roy Baddie.

29:34

There you go. Roy Baddies. Yeah.

29:36

Yep. Chris? Yep? Yep. Also, except

29:38

Leon Kowals And

29:39

and, of course, you have to accept Deckard. Right? Director's

29:42

side.

29:43

I asked Chad GPT. I

29:45

said and Zora, of course.

29:47

I asked I asked Chad GPT. I said,

29:49

was Deckard a replicant? And here's what it

29:52

said, the question of Deckard's own identity

29:54

and whether or not he is a replicant himself

29:56

is a central theme and point of ambiguity

29:58

in the film. Number two,

30:01

who portrayed the Android character

30:03

Bishop in the nineteen eighty

30:05

six film aliens?

30:11

No. No. No. I'm thinking of the the the

30:13

later sequels, which was Michael

30:15

49, but

30:16

this is the original oh, listen.

30:18

Alright. The middle one. Right? Yeah. Not not

30:20

ash. This is Bishop. Right? And the it was

30:22

actor, I'll read them exactly as

30:24

written. The android character Bishop

30:27

was portrayed by actor Lance

30:29

Henriksen. Steve, again, his role. Yeah.

30:31

The answer is also written by a church. GPT here.

30:33

I did not I did not edit these. Alright. Number

30:36

three, in the movie, the Terminator,

30:39

what was the name of the AI system that

30:41

became self aware and attempted to

30:43

exterminate

30:44

humanity. Everybody.

30:48

Scott.

30:50

Skynet. The AI system in

30:52

the terminator that became self aware

30:54

and attempted to exterminate humanity was

30:57

named Skynet.

30:58

Correct? Okay.

31:00

Just as long as chat, GPT didn't add

31:03

hashtag

31:03

goals. After that

31:06

answer, I'm okay with that.

31:08

Yeah. It doesn't it's illiquid. It's not emoji

31:11

aware yet, at least in

31:13

my

31:13

It could do emojis. Yeah. You

31:15

know what? I as soon as I said that I was like, I've been I

31:18

asked it to, it would've been promoted to a Yeah. Sure.

31:20

Of course. Of course. Of course. Of course.

31:22

Dude, give me give me George or Banks's

31:24

monologue in the style of the emoji.

31:28

Number four, what was the name

31:30

of the robot in the film Short

31:32

Circuit? Oh, Oh,

31:36

close. But I think Chris there. I'm gonna give that

31:38

one to Chris. Johnny five. The

31:40

robot in short circuit was named

31:43

Johnny five. Correct. Oh,

31:46

Jeremy. Jesus. Number five. Number

31:49

and I had to work with it on on this question a little

31:51

bit. We'll come back to this one, but number 49. Here's

31:53

the final result. Who wrote the

31:55

novel iRobot? And

31:57

what was the name of the detective who

31:59

solved crimes with the help of a

32:01

robot in the book? That

32:04

is two questions, Chazzy, because you know Yeah.

32:06

Yeah. I like how it kind of Oh, I just

32:09

combined it, it gave you a two parter.

32:11

It it it on its own generated a

32:13

two

32:13

parter, which I thought was interesting. This is something

32:15

we actually do, which is we would ask

32:18

a question that is kind of

32:20

easy to get, and then you follow

32:22

it up with a more deep cut one,

32:25

which is how I interpret it. That's

32:27

that's exactly how I interpret it. The answer

32:29

is Isaac Asimov and

32:31

Will

32:32

Smith. Okay. Here and here's what Chad GPT

32:34

said. Isaac

32:36

Asimov and detective Elijah

32:39

Bailey. So now, the the

32:41

Will the Will Smith movie is

32:43

very

32:45

extremely loosely loosely

32:48

baked. It really it really has almost no

32:50

connection

32:51

to to the book. Other than just title,

32:53

maybe generally, the title and some general

32:55

themes. But, yeah, So now here's what's interesting

32:57

when Chad GPT first asked me

32:59

the question, the answer was detective Del

33:01

Spooner. Now which was the name of the Will Smith

33:03

character in the Oh, So

33:06

I had to work with chat GPT

33:08

to kind of arrive at the correct

33:10

answer. So here's what I said. I said

33:12

to chat GPT. I typed back.

33:15

I think Del Spooner was a character

33:17

in the movie eye robot and not a character

33:19

in the book of the same name. Do you agree

33:22

I'm really trying to engage in a socratic method

33:24

here with the with Chad GPT. And

33:26

so it said immediately, yes,

33:28

you are correct. Spooner as a character

33:31

in the two thousand four film iRobot,

33:33

which was based on I as a Asimov science

33:35

fiction series. Spooner is portrayed by

33:37

Will Smith, etcetera, etcetera. Original

33:40

Isaac ESMO book features different characters

33:43

and does not include

33:44

Spooner. I apologize for them

33:46

stake in the previous answer. That's

33:49

alright. Light.

33:50

Number six. In

33:53

the comic book series, the

33:55

Transformers

33:56

What was the name of the evil artificial

33:59

intelligence that led the decepticons? Oh,

34:03

oh, comic look. Oh,

34:05

jeez. Get give it little bit of

34:07

leeway here. Give it a little bit of leeway on this.

34:09

Sure. I mean, it could be just the antagonist

34:12

of the Megatron?

34:14

There you go. It's like a silver magnet. Yeah.

34:16

The evil artificial intelligence that

34:18

led the decepticons in the comic book series,

34:21

the Transformers, was named megatron.

34:24

I see. And so and so here's an interesting

34:26

where it got tripped up a little bit that

34:28

it's true that there was a 49 comic

34:30

book series. But the way it's

34:33

49, it's almost as if it's ignorant

34:35

that when you say the 49, almost

34:37

all of us are gonna think of either or both

34:39

the the TV series or the movie. You

34:41

34:49

Next Generation, What was the

34:51

34:53

35:01

together --

35:03

Yeah. -- data That's

35:04

a lengthy question. That's a very lengthy

35:06

question. And had to work with that one

35:08

a little bit. Its first formulation

35:11

of the question was in

35:13

the series, Star Trek Next Generation. What was the name of

35:15

the Sentient? Artificial intelligence that controlled

35:17

the USS Enterprise D. Oh.

35:19

And so I had to work with it. I'm like, what was

35:22

data's role? I'm like, would you say

35:24

would you say it's fair to say that data

35:26

controlled the USS Enterprise

35:28

Team?

35:29

Your I'm actually in a computer is what

35:31

you're Oh, no.

35:32

Yeah. What a life I wanted to

35:34

work with it like it was a person and like if this

35:37

was a person that I had hired to write

35:39

a quiz, this is how I would do it.

35:41

coming. Yeah.

36:12

It's five letters. It's four

36:14

letters. It is it

36:17

is an acronym. The AI system

36:19

in the film War Games was named

36:22

whopper, W0PR,

36:25

whopper. I asked Chad GPT.

36:27

He said, what does whopper stand for?

36:30

War operation plan

36:33

response. Alright. Last

36:35

one. Last one. Number ten.

36:37

In the nineteen seventy eight television

36:39

series, Battle Starklactica --

36:41

Yes. -- what was the name of the

36:43

artificial intelligence that

36:45

controlled the robotic

36:48

silons.

36:49

Oh. Oh, Christie,

36:51

you remember? I wonder if it's in the new

36:53

series too. It's

36:54

not. It's not

36:55

gonna be so good. No. No. We don't know what

36:57

It's

36:57

it's subtly different. Right? It is and I had

37:00

to work with a chat GPT on the on this one

37:02

little bit. It is the

37:04

imperious

37:05

leader. Imperious leader.

37:07

Oh, wow. So I had to I had to work

37:09

with that one a little bit because the the first

37:11

question that it asked me was

37:14

in the series, BattleStar Galactica,

37:17

what was the name? And so right off the bat,

37:19

unlike that's bad trivia question because

37:21

any trivia nerd worth their salt.

37:24

Which there's two series, please. 49

37:27

What did I say to it? I

37:28

said,

37:28

hey, idiot. You

37:31

messed up. I said, there

37:33

have been two battle star Galacticica series.

37:36

Perhaps question ten could be rewritten

37:38

to be less ambiguous. And it

37:40

said, certainly, here's a

37:42

revised version of question ten.

37:45

All in all, I was extremely

37:47

impressed. Don't think I don't

37:49

think it's gonna put us out of a job just

37:51

yet, but I think it might make our

37:53

lives easier in some ways.

37:56

Let's

37:56

take a break and we'll be right

37:59

back.

38:02

episode is brought to you by athletic greens.

38:04

49 you are a perpetual and obsessive

38:07

38:14

or watching leather work videos or reading

38:16

Patrick Swazzy's full filmography. Too

38:19

38:21

little time. But being healthy is one of my

38:25

habit stacking life hacks that I do to save

38:27

time. First, I add cooked spinach

38:30

to all of my meals, especially to

38:32

my instant ramen. Second of all, I

38:34

take AG1 by athletic greens almost

38:36

every morning when I front load my water

38:38

intake of the day. And it makes me feel like

38:40

I'm covering my nutritional bases. Just

38:43

one scoop of powder in water takes

38:45

me ten seconds, seven five vitamins,

38:47

minerals, And then I don't have to spend extra

38:49

brain cells and energy worrying about supplements,

38:52

and I also struggle to drink enough water

38:54

too. So it's a win win. If you're looking

55:14

a suit out of linen, very versatile,

55:18

One of the the oldest and

55:21

most widely used fabrics in humanity's

55:23

history, linen comes from the fibers

55:25

of what plant. What plant?

55:30

Chris, is it the linseed?

55:33

Plant? IIII I'm

55:35

gonna need you I'm gonna need you to to to press

55:38

55:43

I will accept Lindsay. I will accept Lindsay.

55:45

I was looking for flags, but I will

55:48

accept Lindsay.

55:49

Like Yeah.

55:51

Mike, are we

55:52

are the the same thing? They are. That's

55:54

right. And they vary yeah. You get

55:56

you get a lot of stuff out of

55:58

the linseed plant or

56:00

flat. Call it linseed oil, but you don't

56:02

linseed oil. That's right. But you you

56:04

have

56:04

a lot linseed. Okay. 49

56:07

you can get flaxseed oil. They're

56:09

kind of like flaxseed oil kinda tends

56:12

to be more

56:12

49, like, you ingest it. And windseed

56:14

oil kind

56:15

of I see more for it for yeah.

56:17

But they all come in the same plant. Yeah. 49, very,

56:21

yeah, very useful plant.

56:23

Wow. The the word

56:25

itself has actually worked its way into

56:27

the English language in ways that you may not

56:30

even realize So we

56:32

talk about materials having

56:34

say, you know, I got a jacket that has a nice

56:36

lining. Right? Or we talk about

56:39

This book is with

56:42

the verb to line

56:44

something with originally

56:47

meant to cover with linen.

56:49

In the middle ages, it was extremely

56:52

common to use linen as

56:54

an inner layer on garments

56:56

and jackets

56:57

against, you know, particularly heavier

56:59

rougher materials. Wow.

57:03

Alright. As parents of

57:05

toddlers, which we all are,

57:07

I can almost guarantee that

57:10

you have in your house

57:12

somewhere at least one item

57:15

made of felt. What

57:18

is felt? Oh, geez.

57:20

If if you wanted to make some

57:21

felt, how would you go about doing it, Karen?

57:24

It is basically meshing

57:27

wool fibers with

57:29

no regular

57:30

pattern. It's just kinda compressed and

57:32

nodded fibers of wool.

57:35

Broadly correct. Yeah. You're even a little maybe

57:37

little more 49. It's just natural.

57:39

Just fibers mashed

57:41

together. Yeah. Whoa.

57:42

Whoa. It doesn't have to be whoa. It doesn't

57:44

have to be whoa. And 49 fact, yeah, these days there are

57:46

a lot of, you know, natural and other natural

57:48

and synthetic fiber felt that

57:50

you can you can felt a lot of different fibers

57:53

broadly, there's wet felting and

57:55

dry 49. And wet felting

57:57

is kind of the more historic classic

58:00

way of doing it. Yeah. You get some wool wool

58:02

49. Correct. You you

58:04

wet it, you mash them together, and the

58:07

the fibers on a microscopic

58:10

level that the little jagged

58:12

shapes in the hooks, they they interweave. And

58:14

then when they dry again, it's as

58:17

if it's a, you know It's one big uniform

58:19

piece. That's right with strength. I hope

58:21

this is true because it's a great sort

58:23

of history of 49 kind of thing. I read that

58:25

there were some peoples, in particular,

58:28

some nomadic peoples. Where on

58:30

long journeys, they would

58:32

stuff wool, you know, kind of loose

58:35

wool into their into their booties and their boots.

58:37

And the action of walking

58:39

-- Oh. -- between the agitation. Turns

58:42

them to the shoes. And the sweat from your feet

58:44

turns them into socks. So it's like by the time,

58:46

you know, you like, at the end of your journey,

58:48

you've got these, like, little socks that you kind

58:51

of like, you know, baked in your

58:53

shoes. Yeah. Another crafty

58:55

hobby that think has had a resurgence in the

58:57

last few years is crocheting. What

59:00

does the word crochet mean

59:04

in French. Chris,

59:09

a hook. It does. Crochet

59:12

just means look. Maybe easier

59:14

to say that you're crocheting rather than you're hooking.

59:17

So I never thought We'd

59:21

love to talk about our world's 49 on

59:23

the show. One of the

59:25

standout highlights of the nineteen

59:27

thirty nine New York World's Fair

59:30

was the public debut

59:33

of nylon in

59:36

the form of women's

59:39

nylon stockings. What

59:42

household item, common

59:44

household item was

59:46

the first commercial product

59:49

to use

59:49

nylon. It was not in a

59:51

fabric form.

59:53

Toilet cleaner, like a toilet brush

59:56

or like a On your your your

59:58

your on the right track. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe.

1:00:01

Yeah. Maybe something with brittles

1:00:03

maybe. Oh, toothbrush? It

1:00:05

was a toothbrush. Oh, you

1:00:08

know. Yeah. Replacing

1:00:11

hair, you know, for bristles. mean

1:00:14

Oh. I mean, that's what

1:00:16

bristles. That what bristles were made out of

1:00:18

paint paintbrushes. It was

1:00:21

hair, you know, maybe a horse hair, maybe other animal

1:00:23

hair. But yeah. Mhmm. This

1:00:26

waterproof 49 fabric introduced

1:00:29

in the nineteen seventies was

1:00:31

made of expanded

1:00:34

poly tetrrafluoroethylene, but

1:00:37

better known by what name.

1:00:42

Karen. Is it neoprene? Oh,

1:00:46

it is not

1:00:46

-- Not like Scuba stuff. -- is not

1:00:48

neoprene. Is it rayon?

1:00:52

It is not rayon. This

1:00:54

is a family company. The family's name

1:00:56

is in fact in the name of this

1:00:58

fabric. Gorex. Oh,

1:01:01

gorex. My gosh. My gosh.

1:01:05

Gorex. Gorex. The Gore 49. Bill

1:01:08

and Shannon Leave Gore and

1:01:11

their son, Bob. Yep. Bill

1:01:13

Bill Gore, in fact, worked at

1:01:15

DuPont. And was convinced

1:01:17

that he could build a successful business

1:01:20

around PTFE, the

1:01:22

the substance that I just named. And sure

1:01:24

enough he did, still in business today. Gourtex

1:01:26

mix gets tough. Alright.

1:01:29

Whoa. It comes from sheep. You

1:01:31

probably knew that. And, you know,

1:01:34

also, alpacas, sure, camels, other

1:01:36

animals, merino

1:01:38

wool comes from merino

1:01:40

sheep. Mhmm. But where Did

1:01:43

Marino sheep first

1:01:45

come from? Yeah. Where did Marino

1:01:48

sheep originate? Chris.

1:01:52

Spain? Yes. It was Spain.

1:01:54

I understand. Spain. Marino. Marino. Marino.

1:01:56

The breed of Marino sheep in

1:01:59

in the middle ages. This was

1:02:01

fiercely protected, like

1:02:03

the merino sheep sort

1:02:05

of monopoly in Spain. You

1:02:08

people were not allowed to export

1:02:10

the sheep, like under, you know, severe

1:02:13

penalty. Like, yeah. You could you could theoretically

1:02:15

be killed if it found if they found out that you were, like,

1:02:17

taking marine marine sheep out of out of Spain

1:02:20

or letting it kind of get out into the

1:02:22

wider world. Today, of course, there are

1:02:24

a Reno sheep in many, many

1:02:26

countries. Alright. Last

1:02:28

one. Last one, speaking of luxurious

1:02:30

wolves, cashmere wool

1:02:34

does not come from merino

1:02:36

sheep. It does not come from cashmere sheep.

1:02:39

What animal does cashmere will come

1:02:41

from? Both

1:02:44

of you. At the same time, let's hear it. Llama.

1:02:46

Goats. Oh, Karen's

1:02:49

correct. It is from me. Oh, okay. Alright.

1:02:51

Good job. Guys.

1:02:54

49 we close the show out, I wanted

1:02:56

to say on the show because I I think that

1:02:58

maybe some of our listeners might be interested in,

1:03:00

like, what I have been doing, you know,

1:03:02

at my job, you know,

1:03:04

for the past little while. So we had a pretty

1:03:06

big year in twenty twenty two at the end of twenty

1:03:08

twenty two. Video game developer that I worked for,

1:03:10

which is called Digital Eclipse. We actually had a couple

1:03:13

of big game releases. We

1:03:15

had teenage mutant Ninja Turtles, the

1:03:17

Kalabanga collection. Which

1:03:19

collects up all the Ninja Turtles

1:03:21

games from the eighties to the nineties. And

1:03:23

what I do, I'm editorial director, and so

1:03:26

all of our game completions that

1:03:28

we do of these classic games, they all have

1:03:30

a major, like, historical elements. Like we

1:03:32

talk about the making of the games,

1:03:35

Kalbanha collection we had tons of

1:03:37

the design documents, you know, like

1:03:39

scans of the original gaming boxes

1:03:41

and manuals and scans of, like, magazine

1:03:44

ads put together actually a

1:03:46

a brand new thing, which was a an interactive

1:03:49

strategy guide for the game. So

1:03:51

if the games have secret codes and things like

1:03:53

that, we actually you know, 49 additional

1:03:55

guide that you can read it looks like

1:03:58

an old school video game magazine from the

1:04:00

nineties, but you click on the the screenshots

1:04:02

and watch a little video of tip. Then

1:04:04

we had another game that's called Atari 49, The

1:04:06

Anniversary Celebration. And this,

1:04:08

we really went all the way with

1:04:11

It's an interactive documentary. It

1:04:14

has over a hundred games in it, but

1:04:16

the whole thing is laid out. Like a museum.

1:04:19

Yeah. That's that's what we tried to

1:04:21

do. Yeah. And so, like, I wrote this

1:04:23

whole, like, timeline of atari history

1:04:25

and pull together all

1:04:27

these, like, cool, like, digital artifacts and

1:04:29

scans of, like, arcade game flyers and

1:04:31

stuff like that. If you're interested, I mean, atari

1:04:33

fifty, I would really I would recommend this

1:04:36

even if you don't really play

1:04:38

a lot of video games. It's not like everything, you

1:04:40

know, Nintendo Switch in the House, but also PlayStation

1:04:42

or Xbox or steam

1:04:45

PC and it really a

1:04:47

very very different approach to, like,

1:04:49

releasing classic games. And

1:04:51

so if you like all of the

1:04:54

trivia on Goodjob

1:04:55

Brain, like, this is really just full of interesting

1:04:58

trivia about your relationship. I'm not being paid to say

1:05:00

this. But, yeah, to call it a game is really

1:05:02

and and under selling it. Yeah. It's it

1:05:04

is. It's it's as Karen said, it's like it's

1:05:06

like a museum. On the site, Metacritic, which

1:05:09

you know, aggregates reviews and

1:05:11

averages them out. They listed as the

1:05:13

number six best Nintendo Switch

1:05:16

game of twenty twenty two.

1:05:18

Wow. It's it's a it's a unique

1:05:20

and different experience atari fifty. Really

1:05:22

proud of really proud of what we

1:05:23

did. So

1:05:24

Wow. At trivia is your job. Yeah.

1:05:27

That's always what I was most passionate about,

1:05:29

you know, doing you know, do on the media

1:05:31

side, you know, was was researching video

1:05:33

game history and writing big features

1:05:35

about it and stuff like that was always super 49. And

1:05:37

so, like, now I'm doing

1:05:40

that same work, but the output

1:05:42

is a video game. Instead of an

1:05:44

article. So that kind of spooled me.

1:05:46

Yeah. So check out video games.

1:05:51

I didn't mean me to try some of these

1:05:53

Have you thought video video

1:05:55

games? Yeah. And

1:05:59
