ROUND 1:
The episode kicked off with a quirky game titled 'Was it Invented by an Albanian or an Alabamian?' Contestants Bob from Static Radio, voice talent Tyler, and podcaster Izzy were to identify the origin of various inventions.

Bob took an early lead with windshield wipers while Tyler stumbled with internet-connected vending machines, but he rebounded with nitric oxide's role in blood vessels. Izzy, the podcaster and ghostwriter from Houston, banked on tungsten filaments for color photography. Interestingly, all three contestants had a rough time distinguishing inventions, ending the round with Bob at 1 point and both Tyler and Izzy at 2 points each.

ROUND 2:
In round two, the guests shared insights into their work and passions. Tyler discussed his roles at Home Depot, hosting 'Geek Talk with Tyler,' and his voiceover lessons. Whereas Izzy enlightened everyone with her ghostwriting service and vlogs on entrepreneurial life. In the heart of the game, 'Liquid Connections,' contenders found themselves tied in a web of clues with a splash of ingenuity, as they linked seemingly unrelated items like airbags and Wikipedia to energy and alcoholic drinks. The 'New Year Name Five' added to the excitement, pushing them to brainstorm activities fitting into minimalist themes like decluttering or healthier living.

FINAL ROUND
The final round, a video round on historical figures, sports, and more, was a buzzer-beating bonanza with Bob mistakenly linking badminton and poker before hitting the nail with pickleball. It brought to life the thrill of the show, showcasing the heated yet friendly competition. A highlight was identifying Rosa Parks as 'the First Lady of civil rights.' As the game intensified, we virtually toured Yellowstone National Park, toasted to the founders of Arby's, and reminisced over 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.' The showdown reached a climax with a tie between Bob and Tyler, leading to a tie-breaker round where Tyler triumphed, guessing closest to the number of jelly beans in a pound. The episode showcased the essence of the show: laughter, learning, and the sheer joy of trivia, intertwined with guests' personal stories and endeavors.

Hey, everybody. Welcome to the stuff I never knew, trivia, game show,

podcast. I'm Jeff. I'm your host on the Armstrong neighborhood

channel. I've got three great guests, Bob, Tyler and

Izzy. Let's hear that theme music.

That is correct. You are correct. You are wrong. You are wrong.

You are wrong. You are right. That is correct. All right, as you know, on

this show, we go right into it. And in round one tonight, I wrote

a game that I can't pronounce and I'm going to stumble over this title about

eight times. Tonight, we're going to play was it invented by an

Albanian or an Alabamian? So, I'm going to read you

an invention. You got to tell me which one is it

albanian or Alabamian? We'll start with Bob.

We'll go in the order that everybody showed up tonight. Bob,

windshield wipers, was that invented by an

Alabamian or an Alabamian? Albanian. I'm

going to say an Alabamian.

Alabamium is

correct by Mary Anderson in

1903. Over to Tyler,

vending machines that connect to the Internet.

Is that albanian or Alabamian?

I'm going to go with Albanian. Albanian is

incorrect, is Alabamian. James

Satchel Jr. Over to Izzy,

invented and developed tungsten filament lights for color

photography at MIT.

I'm going to say Albanian.

Albanian. Albanian. Yeah.

Albanian is correct.

We got two points awarded. We got two more questions

each. Back to Bob, the van de graph generator,

better known as the device that makes your hair stand up.

Albanian. Albanian is

incorrect. That's an Alabamian.

Darn. Over to Tyler.

Discovered nitric oxide's role in relaxing

blood vessels. That has to be

albanian. It has to be albanian, because

it is Albania. Albania.

Over to Izzy, pioneered the R

D methods for utilizing ethanol as an

alternative engine fuel.

I'm going to say Alabamian.

Alabamian is

incorrect. Albania. Albania is what we're looking for.

And the last one for each of you in this round.

Back to Bob, the portable electric

hearing. Hmm. Oh, my gosh. This is

a tough know because there's hard people

in Alabama and Albania. So I'll say

Albania again. Albania is

incorrect. That's an Alabamian. Miller, Reese, Hutchinson.

Over to Tyler. Airbags for

automobiles. We had windshield wipers.

I'm going to say alabama. Alabamian is

correct. Correct. And our last one to

Izzy, Wikipedia that free online

encyclopedia. Is that Alabamians

or Alabamians? I'm going to go

with alabamian. Alabamians

is correct. Correct. Very

well. Played in the first round. We're going to go to that

scoreboard. We have Bob with one,

Tyler and izzy tied with two. Bob, you get a little bonus going into the

second round because you have a different score. You get to pick

the order. Do you want to keep it the same or change it up?

Oh, boy. Do you have any music for me here?

TikTok music? No, I guess.

Let's start with Tyler. Tyler's going first. All right, we're

going to round two. And my favorite part of the show where we get to

meet my guest tonight, Tyler. Welcome to the

show. Hey, thanks for having me. Where are you calling in

from? Calling in from Pearl River, New York, where it's cold

as well. It's just cold. The word I want to say, I can't say.

Yeah, I could believe it. It's cold here in Pennsylvania, but I can imagine it's

a little bit worse than New York. Tell us a little about what you do

in New York and how can people connect with you. Currently I'm

working at Home Depot just to pay the bills and get a roof over my

head, if barely. But while I'm doing that, I work

as the host for Geek talk with Tyler. I'm also taking

voiceover lessons and I am also currently

working on the audio series the Undadable X Men

and some other projects I can't speak of right now, but

trust me, they are worth looking into in the foreseeable

future. Well, if people want to connect with you and follow along in your

journey of creating these, how can they stay in contact?

I am currently on Facebook, Instagram, and if you have it,

LinkedIn. All right, we'll put all those links in the show

notes. Tyler, are you

ready for the hot seat? Ready when you are. Here we

go. In this round, we're going to play liquid connections and a new year

name five for the new year, 2024. A liquid connections

are four questions that all have something tied

together with liquid. The answer might not be a liquid,

but they will all connect to be something that is a

liquid. And then your new year name five. I'll give you a very

basic category about the new year, something you'll do in the new year. And you

have to give me five things that fit into that category.

Tyler, I think I get what you're saying. What's

that? I think I get it. You'll get it as soon

as you go through it. All right, here we go. Your first question, what type

of creature might be hiding under a kid's

bed? A boogeyman

a boogeyman is also a more generic

monster. We'll give you a monster for the boogeyman, but we're

looking for monster. Just keep that in mind.

Which video game company created Red Dead

and Grand Theft Auto?

Weird. Three second rule. Just shows up every once in a while.

3 seconds on the clock. Yeah, I'm not really sure on this one.

That's all right. That's Rockstar. So

remember, we got monster and Rockstar so far. Let's

go to our third question. Which marvel

alien symbiote attaches itself to Tom

Hardy? The

movie was Venom. Venom is

correct. Correct. And which

device helps a guitar produce sounds through a

speaker?

Not my area of expertise, but

honestly, the acoustics. You plug a guitar into a.

Speaker? A speaker. Well, we're looking for amp on that

one. So, Tyler, what ties together

monster, rockstar, Venom? And

these are. Remember, we're looking for liquid connections,

monster rockstar, Venom, and amp.

Things that come out of the night? No, we're looking

for energy drinks. Monster energy drink, rock star

energy drink. Those are all energy drinks. That was the liquid

connection. Clever. Well, thank you.

And your name. Five bonus question. I'll put 10 seconds on the clock

once I read you the category, you'll have 10 seconds to

name five types of items or

areas to declutter in your home. Where would you clean up in your home for

the new year and go? Living room,

bedroom, bathroom, closet, and

under the bed.

Did you get all that? I got all five. I always give

you the full 10 seconds just to see how it turns out. Tyler, very

well played. You got seven points in that round.

Let's go to Izzy. Welcome to the show.

Welcome. Thank you for having me. Tell us where you're calling in

from. I am calling in from Houston, Texas, where we were

just 20 degrees the other day, and today we're 68

degrees. 20 degrees. We call that spring up north

here. Tell us about what's going on in Texas. What do you do down

Yeah. Baking soda. Baking soda. We're looking

for yeast. I knew that. I knew it was yeast. Okay. That's

okay. People don't understand how hard it is when you're in the hot seat. We

call it the hot seat for a reason. Ken Loach's film about the

Barley. We're looking for barley.

wine is incredible. Those are white wine.

Apparently, I don't drink a lot of wine.

All right, the second one, the movie the

Gosh. Goodness gracious. All right, Bob, you're

close game. Only three points from first to second place. Bob and

Tyler with nine. Izzy's right in there with six points. We

have 30 points coming your way in this final

round. This round is a video round,

and I'm going to start to read you a series of clues. Now, at any

point, you can buz in. I've asked each of my guests to bring their own

buzzers. We'll test those in just a second. But if you buz in on the

first clue and you get it right, that's worth three points. Your

second clue is worth two points, and your last clue is worth one point. If

you're right, you're going to earn that point value, and we'll add that to your

total. But if you're wrong, we'll subtract those

points from your total. So you want to be fast, but you want to be

accurate. So let's go around and test each of my guest buzzers so

people listening at home knows who's buzing in. Bob, let's hear
