[0:01] Welcome to Are you Quizzing Me? I'm Vineet Nayer with my Co host
[0:05] Aditya Kashim. This is a quizzing trivia
[0:07] podcast show. Join us as we dive deep into
[0:10] history, science, sport, pop culture, and so much more.
[0:13] Desk and quizzing. And we're back for episode #47.
[0:23] Aditya and I are back for another round of quizzing with
[0:25] this brand new episode of Are You Quizzing Me, Your Favorite
[0:29] quizzing podcast show. Let's start off today's episode
[0:32] with an audience question, the answer for which will be
[0:35] revealed at the end of the episode.
[0:36] So stay tuned and the question for the Today is for you, our
[0:41] dear audience. The first song to air on MTV,
[0:46] which was the first music channel on television in 1981,
[0:50] was a song by the Bugles, which had a very fitting name
[0:54] considering the irony of the message that it carried while
[0:58] airing on the very first music video channel.
[1:02] What was the name of the song? Let me repeat the question.
[1:07] The very first song to air on MTV, which was the first music
[1:11] channel on television in 1981, was a song by the Bugles, which
[1:16] had a very fitting name considering the irony of the
[1:19] message that it carried while airing on the very first music
[1:23] video channel. What was the name of the song?
[1:27] I apologize to our Gen. Z listeners if they feel that
[1:29] this question is slightly outdated, but the irony of this
[1:34] particular answer is just too sweet to pass up.
[1:37] So wait till the end of the episode to find out the answer
[1:40] and let's now move on to our regularly scheduled programming.
[1:43] Aditya Kashyap is now back with his question from last week.
[1:49] Aditya, take the baton. The question was, if Seiko was
[1:56] an Indian company, what would it be doing?
[2:00] And the answer, I'm not going to waste anybody's time is very
[2:03] simple. It would be a direct com
[2:06] competitor to Baiju. It would be in the Ed tech
[2:09] because that's how you seek home in India.
[2:15] That is actually a great way to introduce the fact that for some
[2:20] reason this week I decided of my own accord that I'm going to do
[2:24] a thematic set of questions. So all of my questions share a
[2:28] theme, which we will discover as I go along.
[2:31] Yeah, and Vineet had no clue till just right now that I'm
[2:36] doing this. By the seat of his pants, ladies
[2:39] and gentlemen, Aditya Kashyap. That would be me.
[2:43] Yes, so Aditya, let me start off today's session with a slight
[2:50] theme round of my own. So you are aware of aircraft
[2:56] carriers? Yes.
[2:59] So you may be aware that America has the United States of America
[3:02] has the highest number of aircraft carriers in the world
[3:07] and they keep building more. So something that I discovered
[3:11] recently while randomly watching an episode of NCIS was that
[3:17] aircraft carriers have nicknames based on the people they are
[3:22] named after, right? So for example, just to get the
[3:27] ball rolling, the USS Dwight D Eisenhower would be called
[3:33] Mighty Ike. So for today's session, what I'm
[3:38] going to do is to give you the nicknames of certain aircraft
[3:42] carriers and see if you're able to guess who the aircraft
[3:47] carrier is named after. Sounds reasonable.
[3:51] Yes. So let's start off with the Big
[3:54] stick. So this aircraft carrier's
[3:56] nickname is the Big Stick. The big stick.
[4:02] Abraham Lincoln because he was lanky and tall.
[4:06] Oh, that's a deep cut. But no, it's not Abraham
[4:08] Lincoln. It's not the USS Abraham
[4:11] Lincoln. I shall give you a clue.
[4:13] It's from a very famous quote by this particular person.
[4:19] And again, I think you already know this, but for the sake of
[4:22] our audience, most US aircraft carriers, at least the current
[4:26] run of them for the past 30-40 years, have been named after
[4:29] presidents or famous Admirals and sailors.
[4:34] In this case, it is a president. A quiz of a quizzing favorite
[4:38] president, I might also add. Oh, interesting.
[4:43] A quizzing Favorite president. We have covered JFK and I know
[4:47] enough about JFK to say it is not JFKA quizzing Favorite would
[4:52] mean. Not just us, I I find this
[4:54] particular president pops up for because there are lots of trivia
[4:58] associated with him and very famous photographs.
[5:01] OK, of him as well. Photographs, so probably 20th
[5:07] century. Yes, OK.
[5:10] I'll give you another clue. And this is my favorite portion
[5:11] of it. Before he became president, he
[5:14] was at one time the police commissioner of New York City.
[5:18] Oh, this is is is this Teddy Roosevelt?
[5:22] Yes, it is the USS Theodore Roosevelt.
[5:25] Because as you may know, Theodore Roosevelt once said
[5:29] speak softly and carry a big stick.
[5:33] You will go far. Oh, right, yeah, now that you
[5:36] say it rings a bell. OK, so the next aircraft carrier
[5:40] I'm going to is the Shall not Perish.
[5:44] Weird nickname, I know, but there is an aircraft carrier
[5:47] which whose nickname is Shall not Perish are.
[5:50] We again talking about a precedent.
[5:52] Yes. Give me a time frame perhaps for
[5:55] this. Oh, let's say the mid 19th
[5:58] century, mid to late 19th century.
[6:00] I'm giving a wide Swede so that I don't give you the answer
[6:03] immediately. Mid to.
[6:05] Mid to late 19th century. Mid to late 19th century?
[6:11] Well, I would go for the most famous option.
[6:13] Is it Lincoln? Yes, it is Lincoln, because it's
[6:16] a it's a, it's a quote from his Gettysburg Address, and
[6:20] specifically this line that we have, that we here highly
[6:24] resolved. These dead shall not have died
[6:27] in vain. That the nation shall have a new
[6:29] birth of freedom, and that the government by the people before
[6:34] the people, shall not perish from the earth, shall not
[6:39] perish. Very cool.
[6:41] Very cool. I do love Lincoln's writings.
[6:44] Oh yeah. There has been some controversy
[6:46] as to whether he has written all of it, but even the ones that he
[6:50] potentially might not have written or has definitely
[6:53] written regardless are very well written.
[6:55] And my favorite one has to be the letter to Mrs. Bixby that is
[7:00] quoted in Saving Private Ryan, which is the solemn pride that
[7:05] must be yours to have laid so costly A sacrifice upon the
[7:09] altar of freedom. What a fantastic book.
[7:14] The turn of phrase. People just don't speak like
[7:16] that anymore. I'm going to the next one.
[7:18] This is a very simple one. The nickname of the aircraft
[7:22] carrier is GW. George Washington.
[7:26] In one, Yes, it is the USS George Washington.
[7:30] The next one may be a little difficult, but it's very famous,
[7:33] so you may be able to get it. I wouldn't be surprised because
[7:37] you are the Aditya Kashyap, the aircraft carrier whose nickname
[7:40] is The Buck Stops Here. The buck stops here.
[7:45] This is not a precedent, right? This is a president.
[7:48] This particular president had this phrase made into a sign
[7:52] that he kept on his desk in the Oval Office.
[7:56] Oh, yes, yes, yes. I was thinking in general first,
[7:58] but you're right, I have heard of this.
[8:00] I want to say it's either FDR or is it Truman, one of the.
[8:04] Oh, very good. It is Truman.
[8:06] It is indeed the USS Harry S Truman.
[8:10] For the edification of our audience, the buck stops.
[8:13] Here is a phrase that was popularized by President Harry S
[8:16] Truman, who kept a sign with that phrase on his desk in the
[8:19] Oval Office. The phrase refers to the notion
[8:22] that the president has to make the decisions and accept the
[8:25] ultimate responsibility for these decisions.
[8:28] And an additional piece of trivia.
[8:30] Truman actually received the sign as a gift from a prison
[8:33] warden who was also an avid poker player.
[8:37] So was this originally in the context of poker?
[8:41] The buck stops. Here I think that in that case
[8:43] might be the chip stops here. OK, the chip stops.
[8:47] Now the last one in the American series, this one I want you to
[8:52] try and guess. The aircraft carrier is known as
[8:57] Avenger. Oh, that's easy.
[8:59] It is USS Bajaj. Oh, that hurt.
[9:06] Oh, that hurt. That hurt really badly.
[9:12] The Bajaj Avenger. No, Let us see Avenger.
[9:17] And is this also named after a president?
[9:19] Yes, it is named after a president.
[9:21] Give me a time frame perhaps? Let's say post the 80s.
[9:27] I'm not giving you anything more specific than that.
[9:31] Post 80s, yes. So then it has to be, as you
[9:36] know, I was going to say George Bush, the junior George Bush
[9:41] junior for avenging quote UN quote avenging the 9/11 attacks,
[9:46] but. Oh, that fits.
[9:49] Is that your answer? I am going to settle on that,
[9:53] yeah. Of course it is not George W
[9:56] Bush. No, because I knew most people
[9:59] would and quite reasonably guess that it was Avenger because
[10:04] George W Bush, you know, went went to war to avenge the attack
[10:08] on the US. But the name Avenger does not
[10:12] come from the action of avenging something.
[10:16] It actually comes from the name of something else.
[10:19] But you're very close with your answer.
[10:21] Just think a little harder. Very close.
[10:23] Makes me think George HW Bush. Yes it is Dodge HW Bush because
[10:29] it was named after the TBM Avenger aircraft which was flown
[10:34] by then Lieutenant Sorry Lieutenant George HW Bush.
[10:39] In World War 2 he was a naval hero so he he flew an Avenger
[10:44] aircraft and because of that the aircraft carrier is called
[10:48] Avenger. Just a few more.
[10:51] There is another one called Old Salt.
[10:53] Uncle Old Salt are also known as Uncle Chester.
[10:58] That's not named after a president.
[11:00] It's not named after a. President Arthur Chester Oh, no.
[11:03] OK. So this is actually named for
[11:07] Admiral Chester Nimitz, if you've heard of the Nimitz
[11:10] class. Exactly.
[11:11] So there's another one called Look Ahead that's named after
[11:16] Admiral John Stennis. Now the last actual question in
[11:21] this OK, I'm giving you the biggest clue that this is not an
[11:23] American aircraft carrier, but there is another aircraft
[11:26] carrier somewhere in the world whose motto is Ikdine.
[11:32] Ikdine. Yes, it literally means it's in
[11:35] German, which says I serve ikdine.
[11:39] Would it be too straightforward to say this is a German aircraft
[11:42] carrier? No, it is not a German aircraft
[11:44] carrier. OK.
[11:46] That would have been too easy. OK, then is it somebody that is
[11:49] related to the Germans? How many countries even have
[11:53] aircraft carriers? I know it's not a lot.
[11:55] No, Quite a few countries do have aircraft carriers.
[11:58] The usual suspects, obviously the five in the Security
[12:01] Council. Then you have India.
[12:04] Yeah, that's what I meant. Like it can't be more than.
[12:06] I don't know how many, but it can't be more than 10I imagine.
[12:09] Yeah, not more than 10. So I doubt in any Indian
[12:13] aircraft carrier has a German. No, no, no, no.
[12:16] We only have two aircraft carriers and neither of them
[12:19] are, you know, having a motto derived from German.
[12:25] Russia. China, Probably unlikely.
[12:28] So then I'm coming to Europe, which makes me think it could be
[12:31] France or it could be the UK. I'm going to venture a guess and
[12:36] I'm going to say UK. Yes, it is the HMS Prince of
[12:41] Wales. The Prince of Wales Feathers are
[12:45] the heraldic badge of the Prince of Wales, the heir to the
[12:48] British stone. The badge consists of three
[12:51] white ostrich feathers encircled by a gold coronet with a ribbon
[12:56] below, bearing the German motto IK Dine.
[13:00] OK, very cool. I find it it's not actually
[13:05] quite odd, but it's just quite odd.
[13:07] Haven't you go back to think of the fact that hardly any kings
[13:11] of England have been English? Actually, that's the reason I
[13:15] went with the UK, because they do have German blood at some
[13:20] point, pretty prominently. That's right, Mountbatten.
[13:25] The name was changed from Battenburg, right?
[13:30] I think the Last King or Saxon king.
[13:34] Actually, no. Even the Saxons were kind of
[13:36] settlers in EU, in the British Isles.
[13:39] I think the Britons are, you know, Brittany, they were the
[13:42] last people and I think it was in the middle of the first
[13:46] Millennium, at which point where they had a Last King.
[13:49] The last Saxon king was Harold the 2nd who was defeated by
[13:53] William the Conqueror who came from Normandy.
[13:55] So technically he was French so and after that they've had
[14:01] Frenchmen, Scotsmen, Germans on the throne, but hardly any, you
[14:07] know, native Englishmen source to speak.
[14:10] So that ends my series of aircraft carrier questions
[14:15] inspired by NCIS, in which one episode Gibbs actually says that
[14:22] the Big Stick is Theodore Roosevelt.
[14:24] And when one of his when McGee guesses that the USS Abraham
[14:29] Lincoln might be honest, Abe Gibbs corrects him and tells him
[14:33] no, it's not the Honest Abe, it's the Shall Not Perish.
[14:36] And I thought, that's weird. I didn't know that aircraft
[14:39] carriers could have nicknames, so this particular question set
[14:42] was brought to you by NCIS. I'm not surprised actually, that
[14:46] they do have nicknames, but I am surprised at the nicknames
[14:49] themselves. You're right.
[14:50] I would have gone with the honest honesty perhaps, but
[14:54] Shallot perishes pretty cool too.
[14:57] Sidebar question and I I've put in too many questions already,
[15:00] but sidebar question, Do you know which U.S.
[15:03] President was the first to be inducted into the Wrestling Hall
[15:07] of Fame? Oh, that would be Lincoln.
[15:09] Yes. And do you know for what?
[15:11] He was he. Was a big wrestler.
[15:13] He was a big wrestler. That's true, but he is supposed
[15:16] to have invented. Now this is apocryphal, but he's
[15:19] supposed to have invented a very classic wrestling move.
[15:24] Well, that I didn't know. I knew the wrestling fact.
[15:26] I didn't know. A move.
[15:27] Yes, yes. So this is apocryphal because
[15:29] there nobody mentions it by this particular name, but the
[15:33] description of the move is there in a couple of books about him
[15:37] from that time period. So he is believed to have been
[15:42] the first wrestler to do the choke slam, wherein the wrestler
[15:46] would catch somebody by the neck, lift them up off the
[15:49] ground, and then slam them down to the floor on the back.
[15:52] So Lincoln apparently used to do.
[15:53] This good for you, Lincoln? All right, all right.
[15:57] Which is why I felt that Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter is quite
[16:00] apartment apartment. Of all the Lincoln films that
[16:05] could be made him as a vampire, Daniel Lewis, the one that you
[16:08] forget Daniel Lewis Method acting can go suck it.
[16:14] It is all about the vampire hunting for beneath.
[16:16] Yes. All right, OK well, since you
[16:21] started us off with American institutions, I'm going to move
[16:25] into my team. Which actually connects back to
[16:29] my joke answer of the day, which is Baiju.
[16:32] So it's sort of a tech. So I'm going to talk about tech
[16:35] giants, and a lot of them are American.
[16:37] Oh God. So all of my questions today are
[16:40] going to be about the tech giants.
[16:41] But it's going to be fun questions.
[16:43] It isn't exactly technical details about these companies.
[16:47] So let's see how many Venetian figure out.
[16:49] Let's start with one of the biggest ones right now on
[16:52] Instagram. Are you on Instagram, Vineet?
[16:54] You are on Instagram. I have seen.
[16:55] Yes, with all of three posts, the last of which I think was 10
[16:58] years ago or eight years ago, I don't know.
[17:02] OK. You were.
[17:04] You were an early adopter and an early.
[17:06] Abandoned the diary of Instagram.
[17:08] I abandoned it. I ran away from it screaming.
[17:11] Abandoned it all right, Well, you perhaps made the right
[17:14] choice, but in any case, the question today is which is the
[17:18] most followed Instagram account. I would think it would be some
[17:24] kind of sportsman, right? A sports person.
[17:27] A lot of people. So The thing is, this is a
[17:29] question that I love asking in my trivia nights whenever I
[17:33] conduct them in person. And I get lots of fun answers
[17:37] very often. Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi.
[17:41] Great guesses, but not the correct answer.
[17:43] So yeah, go for it. Try some other.
[17:46] OK, so answer. It's not the usual one.
[17:50] It's LeBron James. OK, so let me now try to help
[17:55] you. It's not from this field of
[17:57] sports. Not from the field of you said
[18:00] Tech. Wait, does Instagram have an
[18:04] account? Does Instagram have an Instagram
[18:06] account? No.
[18:07] That would be meta. You got the you got the very
[18:11] quickly indeed. It is meta because Instagram's
[18:14] Instagram account is the most followed Instagram account.
[18:17] Try saying that 5 * a. Little and the fact that it is
[18:19] actually meta and the company is named Meta.
[18:23] Boom. Inception.
[18:25] It is inception did happen because Instagrams Instagram
[18:29] account is the most followed Instagram account and that is
[18:31] indeed as when you put it, meta. So yeah, well done.
[18:35] You crack that very quickly. I expected a little bit more of
[18:39] trial and error there, but you you are obviously gifted at
[18:43] this. You should really start a
[18:44] podcast trivia. Yes, yes.
[18:48] I'll move on to my next question.
[18:49] But before that, let's hear yours.
[18:51] OK, this is a very guessy, guessy question.
[18:54] I don't expect an exact year or an answer or something.
[18:58] Obviously I can't give you too many chances to guess with this
[19:02] either, right? So I'm going to restrict your
[19:04] guesses to three for this particular.
[19:07] It's because of the type of question.
[19:09] It is not a reflection on any kind of fascist tendency on my
[19:13] part to restrict your answers or anything like that.
[19:16] Right? In which decade was the 1st 3D
[19:22] film made? That is a fun question. 1st 3D
[19:27] film. So I know there have been
[19:30] multiple attempts at 3D films and the current iteration of the
[19:37] coloured lenses while viewing 3D films is not the earliest.
[19:43] There have been other versions of 3D films and I'm guessing the
[19:48] earlier ones are different. I want to say 19, 2019 20s.
[19:58] Why do I even bother? Why do I even bother to come up
[20:01] with a question like I was like, oh, he'll not think he'll think
[20:04] it's the 50s or something? Or the 40s maybe, But no, it is
[20:08] the 1920s. The first ever 3D film was
[20:12] called The Power of Love. It was an American silent drama
[20:16] film and the 1st 3D feature film worldwide.
[20:21] The premiere was on September 27th, 1922 at the Ambassador
[20:25] Hotel Theatre in Los Angeles. The 3D version of the film is
[20:29] presumed lost. The film was later shown in 2D
[20:32] as Forbidden Lover. This 2D version is also believed
[20:36] lost, so it has been lost to the With Sands of Time.
[20:42] But the first ever 3D film interesting was from 1920s.
[20:48] Very cool. That was honestly unexpected.
[20:52] I thought I might be off by a decade at least, but I was glad
[20:55] I got that on my first try. So modest.
[21:00] Yes, all right. Yes.
[21:03] Coming back to tech and another similar question we spoke about
[21:08] Instagram. Let's move on to X, formerly
[21:11] known as Twitter. OK.
[21:14] Quick question before the actual question.
[21:16] Do you know who the most followed Twitter account is?
[21:19] Oh, I suck at these. The most Followed Twitter
[21:22] account I'm going to try. Does Twitter have its own
[21:26] account? Well, for all intents and
[21:29] purposes, at this point, I guess Elon Musk is Twitter.
[21:31] Yeah, so it is Elon Musk. Oh, OK.
[21:34] Which is the most. Yeah, it I don't think that
[21:36] counts because if you own the platform, I I mean he could just
[21:40] go into the code and make it like, OK, 11 billion people
[21:43] follow me. I would not be surprised if Elon
[21:47] Musk did come up with 11 billion followers, but in this case,
[21:53] regardless of how he got there, he is at the top.
[21:56] Let's do some. Do the actual question though,
[21:59] Oh, this wasn't the question. So my question is going to be
[22:02] no, my question was going to be in India, an Indian account.
[22:07] OK, The most followed Indian account is Narendra Modi.
[22:11] Yes, the. Second most followed Indian
[22:15] account is Virat Kohli. OK.
[22:18] What is #3? Oh, Narendra Modi, Virat Kohli,
[22:24] OK, I have absolutely no knowledge of this, so I'll have
[22:29] to kind of, you know, throw out a lot of guesses and see what
[22:32] sticks. Is it a cricketer?
[22:35] No, it's not a cricketer. It's not even from the field of
[22:38] sports. OK.
[22:39] So then I'll go Bollywood. Is it Shahrukh Khan?
[22:42] No, Shahrukh Khan is, I believe, number 70.
[22:47] Somebody with more followers than Shahrukh Khan?
[22:50] Blasphemous. There's actually a bunch of
[22:52] Bollywood folks above Shahrukh. Really.
[22:55] Oh, OK. I guess he's not very oh, wait,
[22:58] is it Amitabh Bachchan? He's very, very, very active on
[23:01] Twitter. Amitabh Bachchan, you're right
[23:03] is #4. Oh, it's so close.
[23:07] Who else on in India is on Twitter that much?
[23:10] Hey, don't tell me it's Kangana Ranaut or something.
[23:13] It isn't Kangana Ranaut, no. There is still some justice in
[23:16] the world. OK, give me a clue here.
[23:19] I need some shine light on me. OK, so you guessed.
[23:24] Or rather I told you. It's not from the sporting
[23:26] arena. It's not even from
[23:28] entertainment. Wait, this is a temple account
[23:31] like the Tirupathi temple or something like that?
[23:34] Interesting guess, but no. It's from political sphere.
[23:38] Shashi Tharoor. Good guess again.
[23:41] One of those questions that I ask very often in quizzes.
[23:43] And Shashi Tharoor is one of the common guesses I get once I say
[23:46] politics. Oh.
[23:48] OK. I also get a lot of Rahul Gandhi
[23:51] which which I don't know why people guess but yeah.
[23:54] I guess there are some. I wouldn't have guessed the but
[23:58] the political sphere. Wait, is it the president of
[24:01] India's account? Oh, very close.
[24:05] Not. Oh, the PMO office account
[24:06] there. But very close.
[24:08] The PMO is #3. You are right Vineet.
[24:12] So technically Modiji has both #1 and #3 spot.
[24:18] And then Kohli played spoiled sport.
[24:20] Kohli actually recently went to #2.
[24:23] So the way this question used to be phrased was very interesting
[24:26] because it used to be At #1, it is Narendra Modi.
[24:29] At #3 it is Kohli. Can you guess who's at #4?
[24:32] And that always used to a little bit of a spanner in the wheels
[24:37] for people, but always fun to realize.
[24:40] Oh, technically Modiji is 2 out of the top three spots.
[24:44] Yeah, the PMO account is #3. The Prime Minister's office is
[24:49] Twitter account is #3 in India. Very interesting.
[24:53] Following on with that same framing of question, the US
[24:58] military is the number one buyer of explosives worldwide.
[25:04] Who's number 2? Buyer of explosives.
[25:08] Because the US military, I mean like they are, they don't
[25:10] manufacture most of the thing. They have private contractors
[25:14] and people like even the biggest airplanes, the most advanced
[25:19] airplanes are not built by the military themselves.
[25:22] They contracted out to Grumman or to, you know, JPL or you
[25:28] know. Lockheed Martin.
[25:29] Martin Exactly. So they usually contracted out
[25:32] to a defense manufacturer, so they are technically buyers
[25:36] still. So the US military.
[25:38] Same for explosives. So the US military is the number
[25:40] one buyer of explosives worldwide.
[25:43] Who's number 2? Is it by any chance Israel?
[25:46] No. OK, I know Israel spends a
[25:48] pretty hefty sum on its military.
[25:52] Yes. I don't know if China would buy
[25:55] and Russia would buy. Maybe they just manufacture it.
[25:58] So China is the provider for most of these explosives.
[26:05] But let me also just put to that you're not technically wrong in
[26:08] one aspect, because China's also the largest consumer of
[26:12] explosives, but for industrial applications.
[26:16] Oh, that's interesting. Yeah, that makes sense too.
[26:18] They do a lot of mining. Explosives and military use.
[26:24] I guess I'm thinking of a big land border.
[26:26] I did not say military use. I just said the US military is
[26:30] the number one buyer of explosives.
[26:32] Who's at #2? Oh, OK.
[26:34] So then it doesn't necessarily have to be.
[26:36] Not necessarily. Now, this may just me be me
[26:40] giving you a clue, or it may be me just misleading you.
[26:45] How would you know? It's too late in the night.
[26:48] We need to be playing games with me, but I will.
[26:50] Imagine I'm playing games because I'm loopy right now.
[26:54] Oh, I have recorded with Late Night Vineet.
[26:56] He's a whole different beast. I know, I know what I'm up
[26:59] against, all right, So I'm going to try and say, is it some sort
[27:06] of roadway construction or? Nothing to do with construction.
[27:11] Nothing to do with construction. Nothing to do with construction
[27:14] and still explosives. Interesting.
[27:16] So then maybe some mining company?
[27:18] No. OK, then I need a hint.
[27:21] They're from the entertainment industry.
[27:24] Oh, that is so much fun. Just explosives in the
[27:28] entertainment industry, I'm going to say FIFA.
[27:34] No. Why would FIFA need explosives?
[27:37] Well, it would be fun. Like if somebody commits A foul
[27:40] instead of showing a yellow or red card, blow them up I.
[27:44] Was thinking more of fireworks, but then I don't think you need
[27:46] experience. Oh, OK.
[27:47] You're thinking fireworks. Then you should be thinking of
[27:51] something else. Perhaps you're on the you're on
[27:54] the right line when it comes to fireworks.
[27:56] OK. But you also said entertainment,
[27:58] right? So I went a bit too tangentially
[28:00] into sports. More directly connected to
[28:03] entertainment. And then I would say Disney.
[28:05] Yes, and you would be right. So I'm guessing is this for
[28:08] Disneyland or Disney World or? Worldwide, basically for
[28:11] worldwide, they, you know, shoot off so many fireworks that the
[28:17] company, I think is the biggest consumer of fireworks also in
[28:20] the world and the world's second largest buyer of explosives,
[28:24] Disney, the House of Mouse. That would be interesting
[28:31] because Disney also loves to do everything and own everything.
[28:34] Which reminds me of the other company which does everything
[28:36] and owns everything, which is Acme.
[28:39] Ah yes. And Acme is very much is in the
[28:45] business of explosives as well. So yes.
[28:47] But Acme is actually a competitor.
[28:50] Oh, that's true. That's true.
[28:51] Because it's from Warner Brothers.
[28:53] You're right. Yeah.
[28:54] So not really Disney, but great question nonetheless.
[28:57] I loved it. Very cool.
[29:00] OK. I love that you're going with
[29:02] the American military, and I'm going with the.
[29:04] Tech companies. The military industrial complex
[29:08] is in the house today. Let's try one more in the tech
[29:13] space. And now we're talking about the
[29:15] biggest name in social media. And that will obviously have to
[29:19] go to Facebook. So do you know Facebook when it
[29:23] was designed in 2004? Andrew McCollum design
[29:28] Facebook's first logo. And this had the, well, let's
[29:33] say a close representation of a human face.
[29:36] Do you know who this face was modeled after?
[29:39] A. Human face.
[29:43] First of all, that seems a really bad thing for a logo of
[29:46] like something like Facebook. But still, human face indeed.
[29:51] And I'd say to a certain degree, even recognizable as that
[29:55] person. So it's not like too far out an
[29:58] interpretation of what they would look like.
[30:00] It well, it is close enough as a representation.
[30:05] Was this like an accident where he drew the picture of like, a
[30:09] mask and people thought it was Zuckerberg?
[30:14] Oh, that is hilarious. But no, not in this case.
[30:17] This is actually based off of an actor that Andrew McCullum
[30:22] really liked. An actor and for Facebook.
[30:27] Not closely related to Facebook. It just so happens that the
[30:30] first logo of Facebook was designed after him and I don't
[30:34] think it was publicly acknowledged.
[30:37] So this is more of like an urban legend or or.
[30:39] A lot of people agree to it or say it as the case reliable
[30:43] sources, but it isn't exactly a reproduction of that face.
[30:47] OK, wait, who starred in A Man Without a Face?
[30:51] Was it Mel Gibson? Great guess, but no, again, not
[30:55] not. It has nothing to do with
[30:57] anything to do with face, rather so it isn't a face off reference
[31:02] or oh shit. I should I should have gone with
[31:05] face off. I should have gone with face
[31:07] off. No, none of those answers would
[31:10] be very accurate. So this actor has won an Oscar,
[31:14] a Bafta, 2 Emmys, 2 Tonys and four Golden Globes.
[31:18] He was also nominated for a Grammy, and that is a long list
[31:23] of his achievements. Oh, so he's an EGOT winner?
[31:27] And he also has had 9 nominations for Academy Awards.
[31:30] 9 Academy Award nominations. And how many did you say he won?
[31:35] Indeed, he's won only once. Is this Peter O'Toole?
[31:39] No, but in 1993 he won his Academy Award.
[31:43] Academy Award in 1993. The first time he was nominated
[31:48] was 1973 and the last nomination that is received, or the most
[31:53] recent nomination he has received was in 2020. 2020.
[31:58] Both 1973 and 2020 were best supporting actor.
[32:01] His win in 1993 was for best act. 93 Best actor.
[32:06] He was consecutively nominated in 737475 and 76 Al Pacino.
[32:13] Al Pacino is the right answer. Well done, Well.
[32:16] Because when you told me consecutive consecutive ones,
[32:18] that's the godfather godfather Part 2 dog day afternoon, which
[32:23] was the 4th 1:00. He missed one.
[32:25] In between it was Serpico. Serpico.
[32:27] Serpico. Yes, yes.
[32:28] Yeah. His win in 1993, obviously for.
[32:30] Scent of a woman, yes. Most recent nomination was for
[32:33] the Irishman the. Irishman.
[32:35] The Irishman was a little, how shall I say, a little bit of a
[32:39] damp squib. Just too long.
[32:43] Way too. Long way too long.
[32:45] But in this case, the answer to the original question, in case
[32:49] you've forgotten already, was who was the face after which the
[32:53] first ever Facebook logo was modelled.
[32:57] And that was Al Pacino. Al Pacino's face was the
[33:01] Facebook official face of Facebook.
[33:04] Yes, it makes sense. I'll tell you why.
[33:07] Because the logo and the tagline for Facebook were going to go
[33:11] together, right? You'd have Al Pacino's face, and
[33:14] then they would have the tagline.
[33:15] Say hello to my little friend. Come make friends on.
[33:18] Facebook. That would work, yeah.
[33:22] Why not? Why not Say hello to a lot of?
[33:24] Little. Yes.
[33:24] A lot of little friends, Yes. OK.
[33:29] Staying with somewhat of an entertainment team, I want to to
[33:33] guess this particular sitcom. I'm going to talk about a
[33:37] sitcom. I'm going to give you a lot of
[33:39] details and I want you to tell me which sitcom this is.
[33:42] And I guarantee you upfront, you already know which sitcom.
[33:45] I mean, you already know the sitcom.
[33:47] Guaranteed, right? OK, so this, the pilot for the
[33:51] sitcom first aired and for our audience sitcom stands for
[33:56] situational comedy. Think Friends or Seinfeld.
[34:00] The pilot for the sitcom first aired in 1959 and was originally
[34:05] geared towards a primarily adult audience.
[34:09] This was reflected in the comedy which resembled the prime time
[34:12] sitcoms of the era, with family issues resolved by the end of
[34:16] each episode as well as the inclusion of a loft rack.
[34:20] The first two seasons were Co sponsored by Winston.
[34:24] Cigarettes and characters appeared in several black and
[34:28] white television commercials for Winston the night after it
[34:32] premiered. Variety magazine called it a
[34:35] disaster, and the series was among many that debuted in a
[34:39] vast wasteland of 196061 television season, considered
[34:43] one of the worst in television history up to that point.
[34:47] Despite the mixed critical reviews following its premiere,
[34:50] it is generally been considered a television classic and was
[34:54] rerun continuously for five decades after its end.
[34:58] Following the show's cancellation in 1966, a film
[35:02] based upon the series was created.
[35:04] The name of that film was The Man Called XX, derived from very
[35:11] it's derived from the name of the sitcom itself, and it was a
[35:13] musical spy caper that parodied James Bond and other secret
[35:17] agents. I want you to identify the
[35:20] sitcom which has spawned 9 spin off shows, five TV movies apart
[35:25] from the one I mentioned and 12 TV specials.
[35:28] No, I'm a bit lost. I don't know which TV show was
[35:33] that. It's not MASH, right?
[35:35] It's not mash, It's not mash. How are cheers?
[35:38] No Cheers was in the nine 80s and early 90s.
[35:43] Yeah, that's right. Slightly more recent 1953.
[35:48] It can't be I Love Lucy. It is not I Love Lucy.
[35:52] OK, then I don't know. OK, my first screw to you would
[35:55] be that focus on the thing. I mentioned that the show when
[36:00] it aired was originally geared towards a primarily adult
[36:04] audience. Today it would be considered the
[36:08] direct opposite, at least the later episodes which are rerun
[36:13] and that spin off shows and specials and all are all
[36:17] diametrically opposite when it comes to audience.
[36:20] This is, again, not Sesame Street, right?
[36:23] No, it's not Sesame. Street.
[36:24] But no, that wasn't meant to be. That wasn't meant to be in for
[36:27] adults and oh, 1953 is too early for. 5959.
[36:33] Sorry, 59 is still too early for Simpsons.
[36:35] Yes, The Simpsons were the early 90s, ninety one, 90s or
[36:38] something like that. And they first appeared on The
[36:40] Tracy Woolman Show. Sitcom.
[36:43] It can't be an animated show because you did say sitcom.
[36:46] Why not? Would a sitcom?
[36:48] Sitcom The reason why I specifically mentioned to the
[36:51] audience that sitcom stands for situational comedy.
[36:55] It chance for situational comedy.
[36:57] Never. Nothing in the title says it has
[36:59] to be live situational comedy or it has to be live action.
[37:05] Like would you call, you would call The Simpsons a kind of
[37:08] sitcom, right? Fair enough.
[37:10] OK. Yeah, by that definition.
[37:12] So I'm going to try to venture, I guess, is it either the
[37:14] Flintstones or the Jetsons? It is the Flintstones.
[37:18] Flintstones, right? I came across this fact when I
[37:22] read this piece of trivia that said that the Flintstones was
[37:25] sponsored by Winston cigarettes. And I was like, that can't be
[37:28] true. And then you go down the rabbit
[37:30] hole and realize that when Hannah Barbara made the
[37:33] Flintstones, it was intended to be a block of adult programming
[37:37] as in, you know, cartoons for adults.
[37:41] So that's why Winston cigarettes and water.
[37:43] But after the first two seasons, they realized that they are our
[37:45] target audience would be much better served by making a little
[37:48] more. And especially after the birth
[37:50] of Pebbles the baby. They moved it to a more younger
[37:55] audience and there was a musical spy caper called The Man Called
[38:01] Flintstone, which is a parody of James Bond.
[38:04] Oh, OK. All right.
[38:07] So that was a great question and moving on from that fantastic
[38:11] question to hopefully one that is equally interesting, which
[38:17] tech company and we're back to my team, which tech company
[38:22] started off with the name Tote? How do you spell that?
[38:26] TOTE. Tote as in tote bag, that kind
[38:31] of tote. I couldn't find a rationale
[38:34] behind the name. OK.
[38:35] I'll have a look at it, but it was called tote.
[38:39] OK, it was called tote TOTE. Let's assume it's a tote bag.
[38:49] So something that would be dealing with something that can
[38:53] be carried around. OK, before you continued on this
[38:57] path, let me also give you a little bit more information and
[39:01] actually technically even more trivia.
[39:03] So this was created by somebody called one of the creators,
[39:07] rather, was somebody called Ben Silberman Ben Silverman in a
[39:13] recent interview where Sam Altman was being interviewed as
[39:17] an anecdote about Ben Silverman came up, and Sam Altman, in case
[39:21] you're not. Sure, Open AI.
[39:22] Is is a guy who is the president of Y Combinator and wasn't
[39:29] Stanford drop out. And yeah, he's done a bunch of
[39:33] things in the tech space. So he was in that interview
[39:37] talking about Ben Silverman and he mentioned this very
[39:39] interesting thing when everyone thought his product was a joke.
[39:44] He recruited initial users by chatting up strangers in coffee
[39:48] shops. He really did.
[39:50] He just walked around Palo Alto and said will you please use my
[39:54] product. He also used to run around the
[39:57] Apple Store in Palo Alto and he would like to set all the
[40:00] browsers to the homepage of his product really quickly before
[40:05] they caught him and kicked him out.
[40:08] So that is a little. Piece of trivia associated to
[40:12] this company and to the founder that Sam Altman shared.
[40:16] Something that an app that people could use and that he's
[40:20] going around to coffee shops to get people to use the app.
[40:25] He didn't go to an office or something, right?
[40:27] So this is most probably a Is this Tinder?
[40:30] That's a great guess. What?
[40:31] No, it's not Tinder. OK, I didn't.
[40:34] I don't know if Tinder has a website.
[40:36] Yeah, I think it is mostly on phone.
[40:38] So let me give you a little bit of context to Tote, which is the
[40:41] original name. And Tote was supposed to serve
[40:45] as a virtual replacement for paper catalogs.
[40:48] Virtual replacement for paper catalogs.
[40:52] So an app that would be like a catalog.
[40:56] Is it a shopping indeed? Is it an e-commerce shopping app
[40:59] kind of thing? No, not really.
[41:03] Another clue. Please.
[41:04] OK, so let me give you the niche.
[41:06] Let me give you the niche in social media that this company
[41:09] occupies and that is image sharing.
[41:12] Image sharing? Is it Flickr?
[41:14] No, no, that's a great guess. Image sharing, That's the first
[41:17] name that would pop to your head.
[41:19] But this isn't image sharing like licensed images being
[41:22] shared. I mean, sure that that happens
[41:23] too, but there's more user generated stuff that other users
[41:28] might like. I'm going to quickly just read
[41:30] out the first line on Wikipedia. Oh God, tell me what you think.
[41:34] OK X He is an American image sharing and social media service
[41:39] designed to enable saving and discovery of information like
[41:42] recipes, home styles. For Pinterest and.
[41:45] Inspiration Pinterest Pinterest was the which was initially
[41:50] called taught and Ben Sibelman along with Paul Scaria were the
[41:56] founders and were the Co creators.
[41:59] And when Sam Alton was being interviewed, he mentioned how
[42:02] Ben Silberman, when everyone thought Pinterest was a joke,
[42:05] actually recruited initial users for Pinterest by chatting up
[42:08] strangers and by going to various Apple stores and setting
[42:12] the homepage as Pinterest. So somebody walking into the
[42:15] store might see it and be intrigued and sign up for this
[42:18] potentially. Nice, nice.
[42:23] Lot of passion. He's what you call a true
[42:25] entrepreneur. As as entrepreneurial as one can
[42:29] be, I guess. I'm guessing he's a billionaire
[42:32] by now. I would imagine I haven't really
[42:35] checked up on it, but should be one or close to 1.
[42:39] You know that there was this movie called Yesterday.
[42:43] I don't know if you've seen it. It's about a guy who travels.
[42:46] The one about? Yeah, he wakes up in a world
[42:49] where nobody knows Beatles songs.
[42:51] So then he sings Beatles songs and writes it as if it's if it's
[42:53] his own creation. Just imagine if you had all
[42:57] these ideas for stuff and then one day you woke up in a world
[43:00] without any of it. Then you already know the
[43:03] business plan. You already know everything.
[43:05] The funny thing about this is a lot of these plans weren't
[43:07] unique when they first came up. Facebook wasn't exactly breaking
[43:11] new ground in terms of the. Service.
[43:13] It was off Orchid and Myspace at the time, yeah.
[43:16] Myspace was there. Orchid was there.
[43:19] Pinterest also wasn't exactly earth shattering in its
[43:21] approach. But a lot of these were just at
[43:23] the right time, in the right place, and perhaps the right
[43:26] people at the helm of it, at least.
[43:28] So that's stage in their life. They were the right people and
[43:31] that's what made them great. So even if tomorrow in the world
[43:34] I wake up and there is no Facebook, I doubt I'll be able
[43:37] to create a Facebook and have it become as wildly successful as
[43:43] true Mark Zuckerberg managed to make his version.
[43:47] You know, if I could send a message back in time to my
[43:51] parents or to me in the time I would send them stock tips.
[43:56] Buy Wipro in the 80s at ₹10,000 for ₹10,000.
[44:00] You'll have hundreds of crores today.
[44:03] And that's where the butterfly effect kicks in and Wipro is
[44:07] before you're not crashing. No, I, I, I'm, I'm someone who
[44:10] believes in the inertia of time. Oh, OK.
[44:15] No. So I don't think like you can do
[44:18] anything to may change the major kind of linchpin events of time,
[44:23] right? Like if you tried and go, if you
[44:26] went back and tried to kill Hitler as a kid, you wouldn't be
[44:29] able to. I'm saying the inertia of time
[44:32] would prevent you from doing that because the effect that
[44:34] that man has had downstream is so huge that I believe that you
[44:39] wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
[44:41] Oh, interesting. That's an interesting philosophy
[44:45] I also love. How are you quizzing me?
[44:47] Late night transforms at some point into a philosophical
[44:52] forecast. People who have absolutely no
[44:56] credibility. Absolutely.
[44:59] Nothing. I still not going to be stopped
[45:01] from speaking their mind about it.
[45:03] And next week we'll deal about how causality works in the
[45:08] quantum world. Stay tuned for that.
[45:12] Yeah, I feel like. I like how so many of regular
[45:16] listeners of IU quizzing me showed us how in the wrapped we
[45:19] featured in the top five Spotify wrapped and at this point we are
[45:24] just challenging them. Can you speak to them any
[45:28] longer? Yeah, so true.
[45:34] OK, I believe that brings us to the end of this episode.
[45:37] Yes, for the regular programming.
[45:39] Aditya, what is your special question of the week?
[45:43] My special question for the week is Flintstones, If they had to
[45:48] be sponsored by a different company, which would be more
[45:52] relevant today and back in the day Winston Cigarettes was it?
[45:55] But today, in 2023, which company should be sponsoring
[46:00] Flintstones if it was created today?
[46:03] OK. And an additional question from
[46:06] me, I'm just adding on to that question, who would be their
[46:08] brand ambassador? OK, wow, Vineet is joining in.
[46:12] I love this. OK.
[46:14] I just hope I can remember what I was thinking of right now next
[46:16] week. Time to make a note.
[46:18] All right. You had an audience question.
[46:21] Yes, The audience question for today was about the first song
[46:24] to air on MTV, which was the first music video channel and it
[46:29] was a song in 1981 by the Bugles which had a very fitting name
[46:33] and very ironic 1. So what was the name of the
[46:35] song? Was the question Aditya, Do you
[46:37] have any guesses about this? I believe it is video killed the
[46:41] radio star. Yes, and you would be right.
[46:44] So it's very ironic that the first ever music video on MTV
[46:50] was called Video Killed the Radio Star talking about how the
[46:53] death of radio and we've now seen how the Internet and
[46:57] streaming has killed MTV, a very meta episode today.
[47:03] Yeah. Wow.
[47:04] I love it. I love it.
[47:05] It is philosophical in many runs.
[47:06] Yes, Aditya, what's your pop culture recommendation for this
[47:10] week? Before I give my recommendation
[47:13] for this week, I would love to point out that if you have seen
[47:16] the video of anit of Video Killed the Radio Star, you would
[47:19] notice a very famous face on the keys.
[47:24] Do you know who's in the keys? No, I have not actually seen
[47:26] this video. It's a little bit for my time.
[47:28] I don't want to leave it as a cliffhanger for our audience
[47:31] members. I'm just going to reveal it
[47:32] right now, but do check it out. It is Hans Zimmer.
[47:35] Oh, I should have guessed this. I should have guessed this
[47:38] because again, and this is again another additional piece of
[47:42] trivia, when Doctor Who was cancelled, there was a concert.
[47:47] A fan concert done to try and revive the series.
[47:51] And guess who was on the keys at that time?
[47:54] Hans Zimmer? Mr. Inception.
[47:56] Himself. It is the man.
[47:59] Hans Zimmer was on the keys in the first ever MTV Video and
[48:04] like I said, in The Doctor Who fan.
[48:07] Revival concert. Concert as well.
[48:10] Didn't work though, but. Well, that's history.
[48:15] And you asked me for my pop culture recommendation, and I'm
[48:20] going to recommend a YouTube channel that I'm a huge fan of,
[48:24] and this one's called Binging With Babish.
[48:27] Oh, I know this. I binge this episode, This
[48:32] channel, quite often. I wait for it for him to.
[48:35] I think it's called Now the Babish Culinary Universe Babish.
[48:39] Culinary Universe includes a bunch of other series as well,
[48:43] but he does continue with Binging with Babish whenever he
[48:45] does videos from and this is the speciality that shot him to
[48:50] fame. He basically does recipe videos,
[48:53] food videos, but the food that he prepares is usually from
[48:57] movies and TV shows. So an iconic dish, an iconic
[49:02] recipe that is mentioned in a movie or ATV show.
[49:05] He'll recreate it and teach you how to make it.
[49:08] And I have actually followed him on multiple occasions.
[49:11] He recently started producing videos again since The Strikes
[49:15] in Hollywood ended. So he has started making the
[49:20] videos all over again. And yeah, good time to get in on
[49:24] it and binge it, as Vineet mentioned, if you haven't seen
[49:27] it before. Yes, I liked his presentation
[49:29] style, where initially you you never saw his face.
[49:32] It was only the hairy forearms. And then the hairy forearms
[49:36] themselves had kind of an evolutionary arc, where
[49:39] initially there was no tattoo, and then there were a couple of
[49:42] tattoos, and then he got the tattoo of the what is that, the
[49:45] spork with spaghetti on it? Right, right, right.
[49:49] You can. I believe he has a knife as
[49:50] well. Yes, yes.
[49:52] He keeps getting more hands, getting more.
[49:53] Yeah, but yeah. His hands are prominently
[49:56] featured in the videos. You see his hands doing the
[49:59] magic and yeah, binging with Babish.
[50:01] Check it out. My pop culture recommendation
[50:03] for this week is actually a trilogy of movies.
[50:08] Many of you may have heard of this or watched this because it
[50:12] is quite popular, but for those who haven't, it is a must watch.
[50:18] The trilogy is a trilogy of Korean movies and the movies are
[50:22] the outlaws, the roundup and the third part which is the roundup.
[50:27] No way out. If you watch The Eternals, you
[50:30] may have noticed the Korean gentleman, the gigantic Korean
[50:33] gentleman playing Gilgamesh, the actor known as Dong Lee.
[50:38] So he's the main character, he's the main actor, he's the lead
[50:41] actor in all three movies and they these are basically crime
[50:45] movies. It's based on a group of
[50:47] policemen who fight crime in South Korea and they do it with
[50:51] panache, with humor and the story is amazing.
[50:55] The it's so natural. It seems you get immersed in the
[50:59] movie very quickly and Don Lee is a gigantic personality on
[51:05] screen, both literally and figuratively.
[51:08] So I would highly recommend that you go watch all three.
[51:11] The first part is the outlaws, the 2nd is called the Roundup
[51:15] and the third is called The Roundup.
[51:16] No Way out. And a fourth movie is due to
[51:18] release next year, so watch out for that as well.
[51:22] They're planning, I think a total of 8 movies.
[51:24] All three are fantastic movies. A lot of humor, lot of comedy,
[51:28] lot of action, just watching Donnelly slap people.
[51:33] That in itself is worth the price of admission.
[51:36] OK, well I'm always excited to be see people being slapped I
[51:40] guess, so I will check this out. And the man has a hand that's
[51:45] about as wide as my waist. And as you know, Aditya, I'm not
[51:49] an insubstantial person. So when I tell you that he's got
[51:52] a huge hand, trust me, he's got a huge hand.
[51:57] All right. That that is an incentive enough
[51:59] to watch this trilogy, I guess. Now, yes, definitely so.
[52:05] To our dear audience, I say this, it is time to say goodbye.
