Hello everyone and welcome to a special mini episode, extra episode here on Generation in Between. I'm Katie. And I'm Danny. And we are going to play some trivia today. We realized it'd been a minute since we did. And also, I didn't have time to watch Dawson's Creek. So here we are. Also, she didn't have time to watch an assigned episode of Family Matters, but we won't go into that. Listen to the Family Matters episode and you will understand, my friend. Anyways. But look, this is life. So I have the 90s box, Hella 90s. Hella 90s. This is mine. I got uh like totally 80s. That's mine. I love it. So I don't know how many will ask, but we're just gonna kind of go through of if you're new to the show. Our friend Victoria bought these for us, what, two years ago now? Wait. She bought one for us. Somebody bought the other one, yeah? Yeah. Sarah? Maybe. I don't think it was Sarah. Sarah, if it was you. Sarah has bought us loads of amazing. We like just both brain dead. We don't know what happened in that moment. This is gonna go great. Okay. Okay, but listen, so we have trivia, basically. There we go. And you can play with us if you want. Since you have the 80s box, you should give me a question first. All right. So we haven't done this in a while, but this will be a fun one. So play along. Play along in your car, in your kitchen, wherever you be. Alright. So, oh uh. I would never know this, but you might. So the it says it's a numbers game, so the answer is just a number. Okay. All right. It's Ronald Reagan's presidential number. Like the order that he is. Okay. Katie's good with numbers, guys. So show probably figure it out. I will say 38. Let me know. Too far back. I can't tell you. Let me see. I wouldn't have. Because we're on 44. Stupid question. If someone's president twice, they don't get a new number, right? That's not a stupid question because I don't know. Because we've got 44 now, but is he also 42? You see what I'm saying? Yeah. Good question. So if we're going by that, oh yeah, I'd say like 39. Girl, you're off by one. It was 40. Ah, okay. You were so close. So close. Dang, I was like, for sure she's gonna get this because Katie's really good with math. Yeah. I I I think the whether they had consecutive terms or none, it was messing me up a little. And I don't know the answer to that, but I was close. All right. Time for a 90s question. Very good. I would have just said, I don't know, move on. I was doing the math, but then I didn't then I didn't know what math I was doing, so I got confused. Like I was like, but wait, I don't know the rules. Yeah. I mean, that's that's an important question. I feel like we need to Google that. Can you do your Siri? I'm not doing mine because I'm gonna find out. But what do I say? Say, ask Siri if it counts it twice. Hey Siri. I was hoping you guys would hear the man voice. Every time it goes off, everyone's like, it's a man. I'm like, I know. Um is Donald Trump the 42nd president and the 44th president? I mean, you could have used anybody else. I didn't get that. Could you try again? If a president is elected twice, does it change which number president they are? Do do do do do do do. Oh, it's not answering. See, we could have typed it by now. This is why I don't use voice names. Everybody, AI is dumb because you could have just typed it in and we could have read it and it would have said. Oh my gosh. Everybody else out there is probably hollering at us. I feel like people don't know that though. I feel like we don't know that. Well, we are people. All right, maybe we'll loop back to that. We'll loop back. But let's do another trivia question. Okay. Even though I did tell you, I did tell you to do Siri. You did? So I can't throw I that's not that's yeah. I did tell you to do that. You didn't tell me. All right, let's play spot the poser. Ooh. Which one of these is not a compliment? Remember, we're in the 1990s. The 1990s. Not the 1890s. Not the 2020s, okay? Fat, P-H-A-T, fly, whack, dope. Girl, it's whack. Yeah. Whack is not a compliment. Come on. So for the youngins, I can explain what whack means. We're gonna count that. Okay. Yeah. What is whack? I mean, it just means like I think the the today's equivalent would be chopped. Yes. Yes. Good. Wow. I mean, you know why I say that? Why? Because my kids be telling me, Mom, you look chopped. I'm like, thank you so much. Like a salad? That sounds great. No. No. Okay. No. All right. My turn. All right. Let's see if I can get close but wrong again. Oh, you might get this one. Okay. What links these three clues together? Okay. Nikki Six, Mick Mars, and Tommy Lee. Pamela Anderson? Girl, it's all people in Motley Crew. Oh. Pamela Anderson. Okay. That was that was not even close. I need another math one. I thought as soon as you heard Nikki Six and Tommy Lee, you'd be like, duh, I don't I the name Mick Mars, I don't know, but the other two I did. The only one I knew was Tommy Lee. I didn't know the other one. So we know she's not a Motley Crew fan. No. I mean, I'm not a Knopf fan. Well, apparently, you don't know who's in it. I don't. I'm sorry, everyone. But she knows they're all so disappointed. They're like, political knowledge, none. Pop culture knowledge, none. They're not if they're not new here, they're not surprised that we don't know most of these. And you knew that one. You knew that one. Well, I would have known that one. I know what whack, man. Oh dear. This helps our case. Here we go. Oh, oh, you're gonna know this because this is one where we gotta we keep saying we're gonna do an episode on what MTV series debuted in 1992 and featured a true story of a group of strangers picked to live together in a house. The real world. Double or nothing. Where did the first season take place? New York. Yes! Oh, that was a good one. We really do have to do that. We'll do that soon. Real world. Oh, you're waiting on me? Yeah. Yes. I gotta get one right. Come on. We gotta go till I get one right. Uh-oh, we might be here all day. Um oh well, this is supposed to do with another player, so you cannot do that. I don't want to do that one. Hold on. Okay. We're just gonna I'm gonna be random. I like that. I'm glad. Congratulations. Okay, this is a good one. What is the name of NBC's long-standing public service announcements that feature well-known celebrities sharing knowledge to improve lives? The more you know. Yes. Yeah. Look at that. Look at that. Okay, I got one right. We can quit. No, I'm just kidding. Okay. Um, nope, that's drawing. Goodbye. Oh. This is weird the way they phrase it. Okay, let's do it. But I think you'll still get it right. I like weird. What would you do for one of these ice cream treats? What would you do for a Klondike bar? That's it. Also, what was I supposed to do? Just sing it? Just say it. That was just the answer. That's weird. That's weird. But also, what would you do for a Klondike bar? Well, it depends on what I'm doing. I'm not a huge ice cream person because I have sensitive teeth. Especially bars. Ice cream bars. So I have to be in the super ass mood for them. Not super. I should learn about using the word ass after adjectives. You should. Um it it I have to be in the right frame of mind. It's I've got to be hot. I've got to be outside because I can't eat. This is super weird. I don't like to eat ice cream and air conditioned. No, I mean I get that. Oh, my stomach just rumbled. So apparently I want one right now. You would leave it. Do you like them contact bars? I'm not a big ice cream person either. Yeah. I just don't really I don't hate it. It's just like if I'm gonna have something sweet, it's not ice cream. What is it? Fruity candy. Fruity, probably, yeah. Well, mine's chocolate. Yep. And we always know Katie's here for a Caesar salad. You know that. That's what I would like to say. I don't even know. Oh, that's what I would. And my eyelashes keep sticking together. I put that in my pile. Here, this goes in your pile. Oh my god, I can't giving yourself wins from my answers. I love that. I am okay. Hold, hold. Let's see. Doo-doo doo. All right. What is the name? No, that's too easy. It was about Sweet Valley High. That's too easy. Okay. Oh, this is gonna be a good trick question. Alright, I'm gonna give you clues. And you can guess at any time. Okay. There are one, two, three. Right? Three clues. I am scared of ghosts. I like to eat pellets and fruit. I was introduced as the femme fatale of the game world. I don't know, so I'm gonna guess Zelda. Oh my god, I am out of here. Who is that? Katie. What?

unknown: 10:02

It's the only girl I can think of.

SPEAKER_00: 10:04

Miss Pac-Man! Oh! Pellets and fruit and scared of ghosts. I didn't know those were called pellets. Power pellets! The ghosts and the fruit make sense. My husband is very ashamed of me right now. I'm gonna edit that part all totally out. No, I won't. I'll take I'll take my loss. Okay. Yeah. Here we go. Should this be the last one? Sure. Let's do one more. I mean, I am winning by a lot. So let's stop now. Uh, I feel like we've had this one, but maybe we've just talked about it. Maybe in our beverages episode, we talked about this. What lava lamp looking fruit drink hit shelves in 1997 and quickly disappeared due to poor sales? Orbits? Yeah. With a Z. Orbit Z. Isn't that also gum? Orbit? It's different. Look, I wish Look. Do not question my gum knowledge because I will come hard with my gum knowledge. Okay. Okay, we need a replay of Ed Slow-Mo of how you just enunciated that fucking T. She was like, or bit. It's not the same. It was good. Remember that time I did a freeze frame where you falling asleep when I was talking?

unknown: 11:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00: 11:24

I remember. And I was like, Katie, were you just falling asleep? And she was like, no. Literally. And then somebody in our socials was like, I saw that too. Like they noticed you falling asleep. Like before you pointed it out. That's when you were still working that other full-time job with the little full job. That was that was draining me. And apparently what I said was too. I was really, really intrigued by your information that you were bringing. Okay, we're gonna do another one of you enunciating. She was like, or bit. Well, they're different. And one is a gum. And how dare you? I know how dare you. How dare you? Listen, I'm from Southern Louisiana. We don't know how to enunciate a lot. A lot of stuff. It's fine. So that's why everybody should give me tons of applause when I do a British accent because it's all about enunciating. And it's hard for the Southern Mouth to do that.

unknown: 12:18

I can't.

SPEAKER_00: 12:21

Oh my God. So you get do I get one more? I went first. I think I went first, but that's okay. You're way behind. Give me another one. Um okay. You're good with math. So we're gonna do a math one. We'll try. You're gonna get this. Okay, it's a number of Baskin Robbins ice cream flavors minus jump street number. Nine. Eleven. No! Nine. Tell wait!

unknown: 12:51

Okay.

SPEAKER_00: 12:52

You know what? I was thinking 32 flavors. Why? I don't know why. But it's 31, right? Yes. So it should be 10. Yes. But I was thinking 32. I don't know why. It's like 32 flavors. I don't know. Okay. Well, she fixed it. You guys? That was you were just like not my day for trimming at all. I thought for sure you'd get that one. Well, it's a good one. Wait, are we in? Oh yeah, we're right. Okay. That was clear. You got one. You got four right. Look at that. All right. Well, that's a fun little rematch. Not today, another day. I wonder if people are sad we don't have a Dawson. I think in general, if they're listening right now, they're sad. Oh disappointing. Why? They're happy. I mean, they might at least be happy that they're smarter than we are. So, you know, that's your win today. About themselves. Not us. We turn it off and just sit here and like, wow. We just stare into the ring like, what are we doing? Why are we not getting paid the big bucks for this content? Hello? This content right here. I think we need some of wisdom. I think we need to think about this. I mean, we won't, but we're still gonna show up. Don't worry. We'll be here next week with more riveting content like this. Katie doing math on numbers that aren't real. And me just being stressed that my eyelashes keep sticking together because I have the worst mascara known to man. Yes. What if you too home did this the whole time? I know. I can't wait to wash this off. It's gonna be good. It's gonna be amazing. Thanks for listening, everyone. Thanks, guys. And we hope you enjoyed our little mini uh extra episode this week. And we'll see you next time on Generation in Between. Bye.
