That is correct. You are correct. You are wrong. You are wrong. You
are wrong. You are right. That is correct. That is correct. And as
you know, on this show, we get right into it and we're going to play
a game called Yoga pose or comma Sutra
Position. What I'm going to do is read you a name of
something. All you have to do is tell me, is that a yoga pose or
a Kama Sutra position? We're going to start with
Ayla, the feathered peacock.
Is the feathered peacock a yoga position or
Kama Sutra? I'm gonna say Kama Sutra. Kama Sutra
is incorrect. That's a yoga
pose. And to Bintou
the fire log. Is the fire log
a yoga or Kama Sutra?
I think it's Kama Sutra. Kama Sutra
is incorrect. Also a yoga
pose. Over to Megan, the
one legged king pigeon. Is that going to be a
yoga pose or a comma Sutra position?
The one legged king pigeon. I'm going to
say yoga pose, but I don't know if that's right or
not. I'm not sure. Yoga pose is
correct. Correct. Okay. All right,
back to Ayla Splitting bamboo.
Let's go with Kama Sutra for that one too. Kama Sutra
is. Oh, Kama Sutra. Wait, Kama Sutra
is correct. It's a fake out. Yes.
Just trying to keep you on your toes. I know, I'm, I'm on the edge.
All right. To Bentu the lotus blossom.
Is that yoga or Kama Sutra?
I think that's a yoga pose. Yoga is
incorrect. That one is Kama Sutra. And
I mean, I don't know. How do I know? Megan, the glowing
triangle, is that yoga or
Kama Sutra? I wonder how that looks like Kama
Sutra. Kama Sutra is comma
correct. Is correct. All right, your last ones and we're
out of this round for you. To Ayla, the
reclining hero, I'm gonna. Say yoga pose for that one.
Yoga with certainty is
correct. Correct. To Bendu
the plow. Is the plow a yoga pose
or Kama Sutra? I'm gonna say yoga
pose. Yoga is.
Oh, correct that one. Right.
Because I was like so nervous. And finally to
Megan, the seated ball.
Well, I know they have those big huge like inflated
balls that they sit on for yoga, so I'm gonna say yoga
pose. Yoga is
incorrect. I not going to explain it because I don't know. I don't know what
any of these are either. Let's go to that
scoreboard. We have Megan and AA with two. Okay. And
Bintu with one. Bintu, you get a little bonus going into the second round. You
get to pick the order. Would you like to change it up or keep
it the same? We can just keep it the same. All
right. That means we'll keep it alphabetical. A's go into the hot seat.
Ayla, welcome back to the show. We had you on a previous episode. So
glad to have you here. Tell us where you're calling in from. I'm calling in
from Maryland, and I'm happy to. To be back. It was a lot of fun.
Marilyn, I know you this time. You said you're coming back. You went as a
redemption episode. Redemption. Because I was so nervous and did
terrible last time. Well, that's part of the
fun. It was so fun. And tell us a little bit about what you're doing
in Maryland and how can people connect with you? Oh, for the most part, I'm
doing a lot of work on my podcast. I did pitch this last time too,
but it's a podcast for history nerds and museum
lovers. So if that's you, definitely check me out. It's a
curator's choice, and basically I feature a different museum each
episode and some of the cool, quirky stuff they collect and protect.
I do think you told us a really cool story last time. I'm trying to
think. I might have talked about
some of the coprolites. I think that's what it
was. Fossilized feces. I have an episode of the
Coprolite Museum, which is very quirky but amazingly
interesting. And I recently did an episode on Johnny
Appleseed, and I even went international this time with an
episode on the Whales of Iceland museum. So
very nice. And the website, one more time if people want to listen. If you
Want to listen curatorschoice podcast.com or you
can search anywhere you get your podcasts. So, Ayla, are
you
ready for the hot seat? I mean, after the hot yoga and the Kama Sutra,
I'm already hot. So let's do this. It's hot in the hot seat tonight. It's
hot in here. So in this round, you can get one question from each of
these three categories. Sports, entertainment, and the
arts. Your sports question. What
are the indented parts of a golf ball called
a divot. A divot is the indented parts of
a golf course. But a golf ball is dimples.
Dimples. You're close. That's a cute name. Your
entertainment. What was the legal profession of Walter
White in the TV drama Breaking Bad? He was a
teacher. Teacher is correct. Chemistry teacher. We'd also
accept. I was careful to not say which kind of teacher because I was
not sure. As long as it's legal, we are okay with it.
Which famous battle did ABBA top the charts
with in 1974? That's your arts question.
I'm panicking slightly because I thought it was a BBA for
way too far into my adulthood. So I have no answer. It's not a
rap battle. I'm just gonna go with rap battle because I have no idea.
Howlandrome. But it is Waterloo.
All right, your name. Five. Bonus question. I'll put ten seconds on
the clock. Ayla, name five
traditional Halloween costumes. And go.
A witch, a pumpkin, a cat, a skeleton, and a
vampire.
Five, right. You had five right
off the bat. But I always let the time run the full time just to
see what you'll do. But you. I was like, maybe that wasn't five.
You just like to make us hot in here. Sorry, it's part of the
show. I'm contractually obligated. Bintu, welcome to
the show. Hello. Oh, hello. There
you are. How's it going? I'm doing good. How are you? Tell us where
you you're calling in from. I'm calling in from Michigan.
Michigan. We had a chance to connect on Facebook and tell us a little bit
about what you do in Michigan and how can people connect with
you? Sure. So like I said before, my name is
Bintu and I'm actually a creative storyteller. Like,
I write books, spoken word songs, and film.
And maybe in the future I'll write some comic books. And
actually, I'm going to publish a book soon. It's called Tragedy in the
Tides. And there's more information about it on my Instagram,
which is bin number two, underscore
rights number one. That's where I post my
writing. And I also post my writing on YouTube, which is

got ahead of myself. Are you ready
for the hot seat? I was born Ready? All right,
we have sports entertainment in the arts. Been to your sports
question. Which American tennis player won her sixth
consecutive Wimbledon ladies singles title in 1987?
I'm not in sports.
How about the 80s?
I don't know anything. Not a sports
person. So I. I don't think I can pass
on this question. Right, you can. Yeah. I'm like, you don't have to stay in
the hot seat. Yeah, I'm not good at sports, so
that's okay. We're looking for Martina
Navratilova. Martina N.
Our second one, one of my favorite movies. The movie Back to
the Future 2 appeared in theaters in 1989,
but what date became known as Back to the Future
Day? I'm just going to take a
huge guess and say 1993. 93.
It's coming up. We're
looking for October 21st. It was an
October question, but the official day is the 2015
year. All right, one last one, and then we'll go to the name
Five. What band did Jefferson Airplane
evolve into in 1970?
A band? I
don't know.
I just want to say the Beatles because they're famous, but I'm pretty sure it's
not that. So let's
pass on this question. Sadly, one of my favorite questions have the answer in
it. Jefferson Starship. All right, here we go. We're gonna get five points
on this one. Bintu. I'll put 10 seconds on the clock.

played. Nice comeback there. We're gonna move over
to Megan. Megan, welcome to the show. Hello. Hello.
Hello. Thank you for having me. Oh, we're so glad to have you here. Tell
us where you're. Tell us where you're calling in from. I'm calling in
from a small town in southeastern Alabama.
Very nice. Tell us what you do in southeastern Alabama.
Well, I'm an actress, and right now I have my own
YouTube show for kids called the Aunt Nene Show. It's
like a variety show for kids 8 years old and younger. We
have songs, stories, jokes, educational content and
more. And I put out. I
premiere a new episode once a week every Saturday morning,
so. Every Saturday morning. And the name of my
YouTube channel where you can find the Aunt Nene show is
It's My Name, Making Claire Murphy. And the number two,
that's making Claire Murphy, too. Very nice. I love
that it's a Saturday morning show that. That's something I certainly missed from my
childhood. But, Megan, are you
ready for the hot seat? Oh, excuse me.
You're gonna get the same category, sports, entertainment, and the
arts. Who has been the most successful
American Formula one driver to
date? Or not just today, but all the
days leading up? As a typo producer loves. When I
make a mistake, I'm gonna. Say the name of the only race car
driver that I know. Dale Earnhardt. The
Ornhart Formula One. We're looking for Mario
Andretti. Oh, I've heard of him, too. I just didn't know
that. Let's go to the entertainment question. In
the 2005 movie Walk the Line, which actor
played Johnny Cash? It's one of my favorite
movies, and it is Joaquin Phoenix. Joaquin Phoenix
is correct. Correct.
And which Rolling Stones track was their
first number one hit single in the United States?
Is it I Can't get no Satisfaction?
I can't get no Satisfaction.
Satisfaction is correct. Correct.
All right, this next one, you can either act out or just give me the
sounds. But, Megan, name five eerie
sounds you might hear in a haunted house.
And go.
And laughter. I heard laughter. So the producer said five
because you were acting them out. The laughter does count. Five for five.
That was a great segment. We're going to that scoreboard and look
how close it is. Megan is in the lead with nine,
Ayla with eight and Bintu with six. But we have 30
points remaining in this final round.
In this round, I'm going to play a series of videos with a very basic
question. Something like, who am I? What am I? Where am
I? And then I'm going to start to read a series of clues to help
you get to the answer. If you're. If you think you know
the answer, you can buzz in at any time. You can buzz in
multiple times. But if you buzz in on the first clue, that's worth
three points. The second clue is worth two points, and
the last clue is worth one point. Now, if you're
right, you'll get those points, but if you're wrong,
you will lose that point value. Now, sometimes
in this round, I will put up pictures and some
nonsense thing that may or may not help you get to the right answer.
So don't always rely on the visual clues that you see, because
sometimes I'm having laughter in my head because I think it's funny. And you
won't know till the end of the video. So because I've asked each of you
to bring their own buzzers, the people listening at home need to know who's buzzing
and when. So, Ayla, let's start with you and hear your buzzer.
She's got the shaky egg and B,
the shaky keys. And Megan,
it's a train. It's a toy train whistle. The toy train whistle.
Very nice. Let's go to that first one.

a what? And on the right side, you'll see a little timer counting down. Let
you know how much time you have left on each clue. My name is
derived from the Arabic word for bench.

incorrect. Remember, all three clues have to
match. Okay, I forgot about the clues. I'm. I'm nervous. I'm
sorry. That's okay. That's part of the fun. I am commonly used
for sitting, lounging, or napping.
What am I? Like the word.
We're looking for the word that would match all three of these
clues. I often have cushions and can be found in living rooms
and lounges. Megan, couch or

the clues. That's why I couldn't accept chair. But you're on the right path
right away. So now I'm looking for a game. What
