## Transcript

[0:01] Welcome to. Are you quizzing me?
[0:03] I'm an admirer with my co-host on the deck of a ship.
[0:06] This is a quizzing trivia podcast room.
[0:08] Join us as we dive deep into History.
[0:10] Science fought of God, Ra and so much more.
[0:13] Let's get quitting. Hey, welcome to another episode
[0:19] of our podcast. Are you quizzing me today?
[0:23] My co-host beneath neither is unfortunately not with us and he
[0:27] is very busy doing great work of Health Care in our country.
[0:31] So I can't even fold him but casting cannot take precedence
[0:34] over saving lives, so good for you beneath, but in our unending
[0:40] quest to entertain people with absolutely useless, but very
[0:43] interesting, trivia. I am joined by our previous
[0:47] Better. Hurry, Krishna HK Hai re glad to
[0:52] be back though. Not directly back in this
[0:55] manner. I guess again.
[0:56] Shout out to Village for saving lives and I guess it's very
[1:00] clear that I clearly don't have that important a job.
[1:02] So I can be called in at any moment.
[1:05] So thanks for having me again in the higher.
[1:08] In the hierarchy of jobs, I feel like we need probably is higher
[1:12] but only by image, you also doing good public policy work,
[1:16] which is useful for the the I on the other hand, I'm in the
[1:19] entertainment industry, which arguably is a negative
[1:23] externality on society, and could be done away with Speaking
[1:29] of negative externalities, I believe you have something more
[1:33] to say on that front, the I have ordered, is it the answer to my
[1:38] previous week's question SK. I was really hoping this is.
[1:41] Nobody will ask me my God if you are you are in filling, we need
[1:46] shoes. More than adequately.
[1:48] Okay, I did ask what is something that old uncle's also
[1:52] like to do apart from playing carom?
[1:55] And there was a question from last week so go check out that
[1:58] episode. If you haven't heard, It.
[1:59] But the question was, what do old uncle's like to do in in
[2:01] housing Societies in India and this is not going to be funny.
[2:05] That's not even a joke. This is just a personal
[2:08] grievance, cause a lot of the older gentlemen are very nice,
[2:13] but some of them are just so such a pain in the posterior of
[2:19] my life. It is so annoying and that is, I
[2:22] think of it feels like a hobby, it is just like a random hobby
[2:25] whenever I'm walking in and out of the building that's being
[2:28] asking me. Like, I What are you up to?
[2:29] Where are you going at this time of the day and the time of the
[2:32] knee can be 2 p.m. it can very easily.
[2:34] Be 2 p.m. in the afternoon and will be asked what are you
[2:36] doing? And what are you doing in this
[2:37] very accusatory tone. So, in case I have any of my
[2:41] building people listening to this, hey, I love you.
[2:43] I'm not talking about you, it's the other until.
[2:46] All right. So let's having set aside that
[2:49] personal grievance and not funny joke at all.
[2:52] Let's move on to something a lot more entertaining.
[2:54] So I'm going to start us off today.
[2:57] HEI, you ready for some trivia? I don't think so but let's go.
[3:04] You can oh no I'm sure you got this.
[3:07] This particular event happened in Cali in Colombia.
[3:12] There was an instructor in a fitness center over there in the
[3:16] 1990s. This particular day, he came
[3:21] into class and realized that he had forgotten his usual workout
[3:26] music that he brings for his class.
[3:28] So as an instructor, he plays the Usual workout, mix or
[3:32] whatever in the 90s, I imagine it was a mixtape so here,
[3:36] forgotten to bring it in that day.
[3:39] In this moment of need, he decided to improvise.
[3:42] And what he did was he started using the cassette tapes that he
[3:46] personally listen to this was of Latin music that he liked
[3:51] listening to. So what was this?
[3:53] The origin of in the 90s? Hmm something probably
[3:58] fitness-related I mean I know calisthenics was the first thing
[4:02] that came to her but it does not arise.
[4:03] I think it's more related to using certain bars and I like
[4:08] free free style and it's more related gymnastics, the only
[4:12] other one I can think of is something to Zumba Zumba.
[4:16] Oh, right on the money, it is embody.
[4:19] This is how Zimbabwe originated. So the idea was that Zumba for
[4:24] those of our listeners who are might not be very familiar is a
[4:29] fitness program. It's a fitness regime that
[4:32] involves cardio and latin-inspired dance.
[4:35] There's a lot of Latin and slapping songs inspired Dance in
[4:38] it so salsa and Merengue specifically, is what Beto
[4:42] Perez, who was instructor? He played that music and he
[4:47] realized that the people attending his class loved it so
[4:49] much that he decided to integrate the dance aspect
[4:51] itself into the fitness regime and that's all Zumba came into
[4:54] being. And it's by the way, a lot of
[4:56] people might not know. This Zumba is actually a
[4:58] trademark that is owned by Zumba Fitness LLC.
[5:02] I was ever to ask because I don't know whether you know Gulf
[5:05] it has this class called Dance Fitness.
[5:07] And I'm fairly certain it's Zumba, but I think they can't
[5:11] call it survived resume because they have it record dance with
[5:15] Liz. I mean, I don't know, I don't
[5:17] know. Probably something else I'm
[5:19] gonna go out on a limb and I'm hoping that the statute of
[5:22] limitations has expired on this. Because many years ago in
[5:26] Singapore, I have conducted and I didn't even know that this was
[5:29] a case. I've continually something
[5:30] called Bollywood Zumba and this is me teaching a bunch of ladies
[5:35] who are interested in being fit and I was like, you know what?
[5:37] I'm going to For bollywood's about and I had no authorization
[5:41] from Zumba Fitness LLC, so I might have been doing some
[5:46] trademark infringement in that moment, but hey, if you're
[5:49] listening to this Super Fitness LLC, I'm sorry, it's been many
[5:52] years, please forgive me, don't sue me, nobody should ask him
[5:55] for a sponsorship now. Yeah, you're giving them a
[5:58] plugging them now and I am, yeah, please anybody, who is a
[6:02] interest in Fitness coaching for Zumba Fitness LLC?
[6:05] It is. It's only Zumba if it is my
[6:07] Zumba. - otherwise it is fake. All right.
[6:10] Okay, HD your question. Before I start this question,
[6:14] I'm going to give a big shout-out to this podcast that
[6:16] I've been listening to recently. It's called lateral by Tom
[6:20] Scott. One of the is an amazing
[6:22] YouTuber and I came by this podcast by way of his YouTube
[6:25] channel. Again.
[6:26] If you love this podcast is a very high chance that you're
[6:28] going to love that podcast. I mean again I haven't asked for
[6:31] his permission but I mean in the spirit of fair game that you
[6:34] know that knowledge should it be gated and everyone deserves to
[6:37] hear everything, I'm going to take a few questions.
[6:40] Three of my favorite questions from the from His podcast and
[6:44] get a Hope to bedazzle at the other three are with them.
[6:48] So yeah, so moving across the Panama Canal.
[6:52] Did you know that Air Force? One has taken off more times
[6:56] than it has landed. Why do you think that's the
[6:58] case? Who that is.
[7:03] That's a brilliant question because it is immediately.
[7:06] So intriguing, the Air Force One has taken off more times than it
[7:09] has landed landed. Yep.
[7:13] My okay. So I'm going to ask for like I
[7:15] usually do ask for a few hints does land landing and taking off
[7:18] mean like is there some technicality of like it landed
[7:21] on water or something? That would still be considered a
[7:25] landing. Okay, it is a technicality, but
[7:28] it's of the technical this video thinking of, which is that it's
[7:30] not to do with Landing. Yeah, even if it crashes, it's
[7:33] technically a landing, you know, so, you know, but and as fun as
[7:36] far as we know, he hasn't crashed so it does.
[7:38] Yeah. Yeah.
[7:39] First one is not correct either. Wow.
[7:41] Okay, it has taken up more than that has landed.
[7:45] This is such a brilliantly phrase, question, I don't know,
[7:48] idea. Okay, let me try who.
[7:51] Oh, I like this idea, maybe. the Air Force, One loses, its
[7:55] designation as Air Force One, if the president is I don't know if
[8:02] there's no precedent on it, follow that train of thought.
[8:06] Okay, that's that's a very good thing.
[8:07] I thought so your mean that's the way you like trying to
[8:10] loophole rights, it's clearly an edge case.
[8:12] That this is not something that happens overnight, okay?
[8:14] If you another hint is, it's only happened one so far that
[8:18] that, that that the mismatches only ones, it's not like
[8:21] something that happens all the time.
[8:23] So what might have happened that that it like I said it loses its
[8:27] resignation, interesting us. Okay now my my My my go-to seems
[8:32] to be, there are a lot of times when presidents, when they
[8:35] undergo medical procedures, they assign the powers to the Vice
[8:39] President in the u.s. at least. Yeah.
[8:41] And that person acts as acting president but that has happened
[8:44] more than once so that can't be it.
[8:46] I mean and also where does it happen?
[8:48] That medical emergency happens on the ground red so but what
[8:51] else has happened In American this in recent American history
[8:56] I was going to see. The other thing I can think of
[8:57] is JFK being shot and also on the ground.
[9:03] Yeah, he was shot on the ground but the LBJ was sworn in on
[9:06] another plane, but they even then it would mean the other way
[9:08] around, right? It wouldn't be.
[9:10] Yeah, it was landed more times than it has taken over her.
[9:12] Yes, Sookie, you're close, right?
[9:14] It's this happened. A few years after JFK died, I
[9:19] think almost a decade after the archetype.
[9:21] So what happened after that? Okay.
[9:24] A kid after JFK died. So 1970s is, it can't doesn't
[9:30] have anything to do with the Watergate scandal.
[9:33] Yes, what happened after what, I get the president being
[9:38] impeached, and designing, not impeached.
[9:42] The president was not impeached, he resigned before he was in
[9:45] previous what happened after he resigned.
[9:49] Wow. No idea if you up from White
[9:55] House, that's it. So Richard Nixon flew off.
[10:00] Okay and while he was on the flight on Air Force One as into
[10:04] cost Gerald Ford was sworn in and so the F was one is not a
[10:10] type of a curve which a call sign and their call sign is only
[10:14] when the president's range. So he lost his presidential.
[10:16] Theaters made are so the flight lost its status as Air Force.
[10:19] Once it became another typical that The normal flight.
[10:23] So he landed in a normal flight, but he took off an Air Force One
[10:27] that's good. So then that's my logic, not
[10:31] stand for lbj's case because he was sworn in on a flight.
[10:34] And if he becomes President, Biden was his one, your honor
[10:38] flight is the question, I'm pretty sure he was okay.
[10:41] Maybe the Air Force on designation started being
[10:43] attached. Only after LBJ then perhaps
[10:45] that's the other thing that prior here.
[10:47] We will check this but that is a brilliant little question, I
[10:50] love it. So cool.
[10:52] I love that. It is bringing the game today.
[10:55] Alright, I'm going to try this one, this little memory for all
[10:59] of us. The Millennials from our
[11:01] childhood was caught up in some sort of a controversy.
[11:05] If I may for its insensitivity to people who suffer from the
[11:12] aftermath of wars. Okay, so let me be a bit more
[11:18] clear? Because I think that is very
[11:19] big. There is this a computer game
[11:21] from our childhoods Millennials? I speak of which was considered
[11:26] controversial in certain societies, especially those,
[11:30] which have suffered War for a prolonged period of time, and
[11:33] even after War, right? And hence, Microsoft brought in
[11:37] a change. Microsoft games.
[11:39] Also, well, that's a giveaway. Michael gives us.
[11:42] Another games was the producer of the games, they brought in
[11:45] the change. JH to cater to that.
[11:48] What was culturally insensitive thing in the first place?
[11:50] So that they could, they could be kinder to these people who
[11:54] have suffered involves. What to, what game am I talking
[11:57] about it? Ficus of Calles, the 2000's
[12:02] weight with. I've got I'm gonna go whatever
[12:04] random dance that thing, but I know China sensors, a lot of
[12:07] video games. I know, I don't know if you've
[12:09] seen like, China has a big thing against lighting depictions of
[12:12] skulls and blood than I have assessing whether from Dota 2, A
[12:16] lot of those icons and stuff are changed.
[12:18] But I mean, looking at the time then probably is not that.
[12:21] So the country invited came, his PTSD related, something that you
[12:25] do over and over again that you respawn over and over again.
[12:28] But that's again seems like a lot of games have that problem.
[12:32] No, no, so yeah, that that to, that's a good guess.
[12:34] But no, it's not where I'm going with think even more.
[12:37] So not even to thousands of older than 2000, in fact, okay?
[12:40] Okay, older than 2000 in the 90s, it's the 90s.
[12:43] Yeah. The games I can think of the
[12:47] deities is behave to these that the game?
[12:50] No, it's not. It's not, it's not.
[12:53] Okay, wait and you said, it's because the game is insensitive
[12:57] to people who have PTSD from war, is it?
[13:00] Or potentially insensitive? And you are not even people on
[13:03] fighting the wars just general societies.
[13:06] And this would be very common in countries that have faced
[13:09] prolonged Wars. The source that I am referring
[13:11] to doesn't have specific examples, but I imagine
[13:13] countries like Vietnam and stuff.
[13:15] Where where there were prolong of CJ's and prolonged Wars.
[13:18] That happened in the recent history, so which which game am
[13:23] I talking about the change something in the game they did a
[13:26] visual redesign in the game. Okay?
[13:29] Microsoft games, I said, Age of Empires management, what could I
[13:34] do that is? I love and I'm going to give a
[13:37] lot of Age of Empires courses. Anybody who knows?
[13:39] Both of us know that we have spent way too much time playing
[13:43] Age of Mythology and Lil Bit of Age of Empires but unfortunately
[13:47] this is not an iom or AOE question damage.
[13:49] Okay, it is probably a much more universally played game than
[13:53] either Age of Empires or Age of Mythology or gave potentially
[13:58] way more people have played this game than either of those games.
[14:01] Oh, is it Minesweeper of any chance?
[14:06] All of that HK? You got it, completely right?
[14:08] It is Minesweeper you are right? Yeah.
[14:10] And what did they change? okay, so my cheaper was
[14:14] introduced back with Windows 3.1 in 1992, so it is one of the
[14:19] oldest games that Microsoft had on its on its platform They were
[14:24] told over the years by many societies communities, people,
[14:28] that users, that they felt that the mines were insensitive,
[14:31] because people have lost, obviously, their loved ones, but
[14:35] even like lost Lemmings and stuff.
[14:36] And these are very harrowing stories and, and they felt it
[14:40] trivialize. The problem of landmines by
[14:42] making it a game where you're supposed to find find land mine.
[14:45] So what Microsoft did and I believe this was with the
[14:50] introduction of Windows Vista, they redesigned the game.
[14:53] And when they, when they came up with Windows Vista, the OS and
[14:57] they gave a style Change option when you're playing my zipper,
[15:01] you have the traditional minds, but you otherwise have flower
[15:04] garden. So you can click on those things
[15:07] and flowers open up or, or you're supposed to avoid the
[15:09] cover as it were and they redesigned the game to have a
[15:12] flower garden and that is a style thing that they did only
[15:15] invest. And the reason they did it was
[15:17] because they wanted to be more sensitive to these claims of
[15:21] triggering PTSD for people. It's not there after Vista.
[15:26] So it's one of the few things that whisper got, right?
[15:30] It would be one of the few things that is right?
[15:32] Because it did get a lot of it wrong.
[15:34] I don't know if it is there since mr.
[15:36] Or was it just wish I believe it is there.
[15:38] Since that I can always fact check that later.
[15:41] But it was definitely introduced to Mendoza stuff.
[15:45] So, yeah, the very one of the few things they got the right.
[15:50] All right, your question. So this is a Brand /, lower
[15:56] question a thing which is a favorite.
[15:58] I think this one almost every episode and I presume it's a
[16:00] favorite of our the and when it. So I'm going to pay homage to
[16:04] that. The logo of the says turn chain
[16:07] was meant to be a dynamic one, that is the logo would change as
[16:11] in when number of restaurants and other chain group.
[16:15] However, this quickly proved impractical and the logo was
[16:18] stopped at three, what chain is this?
[16:22] Oh, this is a question that I know because it has been on my
[16:25] list of questions to ask Monday when I'm gonna answer it.
[16:28] It's a great question. The answer is Dominoes Dominoes
[16:31] was the brand, which is supposed to die.
[16:35] Believe the founder wanted to keep adding the dots the Pips on
[16:38] The Dominoes as the store is increased.
[16:42] Yeah, rather like roll the Domino's over, right?
[16:45] So I presume now they would need more than a dinner.
[16:47] How many ever Domino's? Because you can only have six on
[16:49] one, right? So yeah.
[16:52] What could be a very impractical logo.
[16:54] Yeah, it goes to show that sometimes you don't realize how
[16:57] successful you're going to be eventually good forever right
[17:00] now. That's as far as short, sweet
[17:01] question. I like it since you asked
[17:04] beautiful, but so that's a short question.
[17:06] Let me ask something, which would possibly be longer.
[17:08] Do you know what is biomimicry architecture?
[17:11] I think it is pretty self-explanatory.
[17:13] Yep. Okay, so just to clarify, for
[17:16] anybody who might not be aware biomimicry, it's agree.
[17:19] It comes from, we can obviously, it means making life, so life
[17:24] forms and anything related to things, which are found in
[17:26] nature and architecture. Obviously, things that humans
[17:30] are constructed. So whenever you means make any
[17:33] sort of architectural design, which is inspired by Nature, it
[17:35] is called biomimicry academic, okay?
[17:38] Having said that, let us do some famous examples of it from the
[17:42] world. Let me ask Q HK, would you
[17:44] rather I tell you the origin and you tell me what is the example
[17:48] that exist in the human world, human construction?
[17:52] Or would you rather tell me the origin?
[17:54] And I can ask, oh, I mean, we can we can do a bit of both.
[17:58] If you have many, then let's do more.
[18:00] Okay, great. I have a few, I am of you, so
[18:02] let's try this. Okay, the I'll give you an easy
[18:05] one, this should be easy, the Esplanade, Theatres and
[18:07] Singapore. So it's a durian, right?
[18:10] It's it's a beauty, All That You Are.
[18:14] It is also called the dude and you're right, there's no theater
[18:17] both htn I have spent a considerable amount of time in
[18:19] Singapore is a very famous theorem Singapore and
[18:22] inspiration is during which is a very popular fruit in Southeast
[18:26] Asia and especially in Malaysia and Singapore.
[18:28] So the durian, I think it's the national sport of Singapore.
[18:32] If I'm not mistaken, in fact, check that but I think I believe
[18:35] you're right. It is an offshoot of Singapore
[18:36] Air. And yet band on buses and metros
[18:42] for being a bit too. Smelly it is a polarizing fruit
[18:46] and I know so many people who love it at so many people who
[18:48] hated but all right, it does inspire a very wonderful piece
[18:51] of architecture the next one. Do you know this building called
[18:54] the gherkin? Oh, it's a London.
[18:58] Yes, yeah, yes, you do no idea. What is the gherkin inspired by
[19:03] what is gherkin inspired by? I mean, the obvious one is the
[19:07] gherkin. Like, it's a quick cook on ver,
[19:10] but it is that I would never do it would be a bit too much of a
[19:15] giveaway to last that if it was the gherkin.
[19:17] So no, according to my source, it is not the gherkin itself,
[19:21] okay? I know it's called another
[19:24] thing. But no, that's is it.
[19:25] The shadow that leg is also called I mean, I want to make is
[19:28] NSFW, but it's also called that because it's very similar to
[19:32] shape to that, but I don't think they.
[19:34] Okay, the male appendage, yes, to be fan of most buildings look
[19:41] like the maid of. So we do genetic.
[19:46] No. Okay.
[19:47] Okay. Is it a plant?
[19:50] Yes, you're absolutely right. It is a design making the Venus
[19:53] Flower Basket sponge, it's a flower structure.
[19:56] Oh, okay. Okay, let me do it.
[19:59] The other way around, this has two potential source of
[20:02] inspiration. The first one is the woven lines
[20:07] round bezel. So it is a form of Art and also
[20:12] the home of a species. I'm being a bit vague because if
[20:15] I get more specific it'll be very easy but it's either an old
[20:19] art. From, which is the woman lines.
[20:23] I think that I mentioned or the home of a species, what am I
[20:26] talking about? Evade, the bothered ability
[20:28] concern is the birds nest Stadium because like we said,
[20:31] homework species, her nest. So it is worth missed by name
[20:36] obviously from the botanist but also an old Chinese art form,
[20:40] which is little pil moment for me.
[20:43] Yeah, this one might be slightly difficult but let's try it.
[20:47] Okay, so it's Eastgate Center. And it is in Zimbabwe, it was
[20:52] completed in 1996. And it has a natural cooling
[20:58] system. So what is the main inspiration
[21:00] that they derived from the natural source was a cooling
[21:02] system? It is supposed to be able to
[21:04] have this very wonderful network of whatever the cooling system
[21:09] is installed and and centralized no way that was inspired by a
[21:13] nature, what natural phenomenon or structure is it inspired by?
[21:19] Interesting, okay, when you say cooling and Zimbabwe I mean
[21:21] think of Africa. I don't mind when it comes to
[21:23] water. I know The Baobab tree is very
[21:26] famous. I mean, it's not for water
[21:29] retention, whatnot. So, is it somehow inspired by
[21:31] The Baobab tree devs or how it holds water?
[21:35] Oh, that's a great guess but no, it's not that it's okay, okay.
[21:40] Is it an animal? Or is it like another?
[21:42] Like it is a plant formation. Think, you know, what is it that
[21:45] it's technically, not a single animal or a single plant if that
[21:49] makes sense. Oh, okay.
[21:51] That makes sense. Okay, okay, okay, okay, hmm.
[21:55] I know that sometimes it is. I mean I've seen it usually the
[21:58] other way around. I don't know that happens this
[22:00] way. But I know like for example
[22:01] sometimes bees fight off Hornets by basically like, you know,
[22:05] flying around the Hornet and like raising the body temp is
[22:08] that it literally Cooks to death.
[22:09] So I wonder if there's anything that happens in Reverse.
[22:12] We're in a bunch of animals like swarm around or gather around
[22:15] and like, who love each other to this thing.
[22:19] It's a great. It's a great guess what?
[22:21] No, it's not. It's not it's not that.
[22:23] Let me give you more of a hint over here.
[22:25] It is supposed to be inspired by the house or the home of of an
[22:29] alibi just like the birds nest. Something along those lines.
[22:34] Oh, okay. Okay.
[22:35] That is it like a termites nest because of the network of like
[22:39] love that. Yes.
[22:40] Yes. It is a termite Mound.
[22:42] It is inspired by termites and it's supposed to be.
[22:47] It's a shopping mall and office building that makes use of
[22:50] natural Cooling, and the natural cooling is inspired by termites
[22:53] Mount. The air enters the building at
[22:54] the lower floors, that escape through the chimneys and this
[22:57] helps reduce energy consumption by around 10 percent when
[23:00] compared to a standard building which is quite 10% of signify.
[23:03] Amazing. Yeah.
[23:04] Yeah. One more.
[23:07] Okay, I have one, last one and this is much closer to home,
[23:11] which one is inspired by a flower.
[23:16] I mean, it's the Lotus Temple available High, the bar Faith to
[23:22] worship or it is Lotus Temple. And this one was an easy one.
[23:27] I just wanted to do it because hey, why not give a shout out to
[23:29] one of our very beautiful characters in India in Delhi.
[23:33] I really like the Lotus Temple. Yeah, okay, great.
[23:36] There was my longest question on biomimicry, on to, uh, a The
[23:42] wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. I've got to go back to another
[23:46] brand fashion. This one also inspired by
[23:48] lateral though. Okay, this is very cryptic, but
[23:51] obviously, we can get more and more hands.
[23:53] I mean, if, you know it in the first shot, amazing.
[23:55] I mean, sell hats off to you, but okay, which company uses the
[24:00] 10 840 to rule? Ten 842.
[24:07] Yeah, wow. So obviously right of the bat I
[24:10] have no idea what it is. So I'm trying to think where
[24:13] again I find 10:8 at 42 No. Okay, I love him there.
[24:19] If it helps other companies use ten, six, thirty, seven, or ten,
[24:25] seven, thirty seven or ten 935 as the rules.
[24:29] You know, these are such random. Numbers could become think of
[24:32] 35, 37 42 being sorry. What is the second digit?
[24:37] Use is usually 89 or something to celebrate 10:8. 4210 637 ten,
[24:44] seven, thirty seven or ten 935. So It 679.
[24:54] Noah have no idea what sorta, tell me, what industrial
[24:57] something, or if that helps, okay?
[24:59] I might give it away very quickly, but okay, it's a
[25:02] Japanese company. I'll give you that much.
[25:04] And I mean, always, I'm fairly certain you've heard this
[25:06] company, and if I lose any word, I mean it's very likely.
[25:11] Almost everyone listening to show us how this company.
[25:14] Yeah, but of these companies have Okay, I look at this is
[25:19] Japanese and my first instinct was to say manga.
[25:22] Okay, now, da da, da. It's a, it's a consumer product
[25:25] company. Yeah, it's not.
[25:27] It's not like a nine statement on Saturday.
[25:30] Okay. Consumer product would be
[25:34] Japanese cars. Wow, I can't, I can think of
[25:37] what I mean. They used to previously use a
[25:40] 10:00 10:30 if that's a hint, you know, when they move to
[25:44] dedicate for it. What can you sense about these
[25:50] numbers and say something like, for example, the 10 isn't
[25:53] changing much. And then the second number is
[25:55] not changing much between, like, it's always 8, 9 10.
[25:58] So, what could, what, what, what what operates in those ranges,
[26:01] like, what phenomenon that, you know, of, you know, operates in
[26:04] those stages can eat 42. Okay, so when you said
[26:10] initially, when you said 42 and stuff, I was thinking if tell
[26:13] the alphabets because but then 3537 insert like I collect again
[26:18] job. Yes.
[26:18] Yeah, skip doesn't have, if I'm not wrong any limited number of
[26:22] alphabets. Well, the two of the three
[26:24] scripts have limited number is it time, is it got something to
[26:29] do with time? Good one.
[26:31] What, what? Specifically about time?
[26:33] Oh, you said it's a consumer product with something like
[26:41] directly sold to Consumers customers.
[26:43] Yes, yeah, only thing that I can think of Gov is 10 8 being the
[26:49] hands of the clock because I know in advertisements, they
[26:53] usually keep it at those ends so that the the name of the brand
[26:56] is centered. That is precisely it.
[26:59] This is the rule used by, okay, but which company now Japanese.
[27:04] Same, as you know, what's funny. Is, this is Cassio, Cassio, the
[27:10] Japanese. This one is not Cassie, I'm sure
[27:12] Casio has a similar rule, but this one is another famous.
[27:15] Okay? Oh, boy.
[27:18] I'm gonna show my ignorance of watch brands, but I don't know
[27:22] many Japanese ones. Oh, it's is that Japanese
[27:26] because I know what, I don't know.
[27:27] Is it starts with an S Seiko psycho.
[27:29] Psycho psycho psycho it is like, yeah, okay, but the answer
[27:34] together, this is basically 10 840 to is the is the time that
[27:38] is shown on all psycho timepieces and it's believed
[27:41] that they chose this because one like know if you look at 1080 it
[27:43] doesn't obscure the brand name and 42.
[27:46] You know, it's it's it's a particular Arrangement that I
[27:50] mean apparently represents dynamism and all those things.
[27:52] But in general it's like a aesthetically pleasing
[27:55] arrangement of hands and all of them would have it and I think
[27:59] Apple Place pays homage to it as well.
[28:02] I think you look at the clock app, it will also be a 10-8 by
[28:05] default on the iPhone that I think I'm not mistaken, but
[28:11] yeah. Wow.
[28:19] You said, what are the other numbers?
[28:21] You mentioned 10 840? 210, 7:30, a 10-6, 3710 737 10
[28:27] 935. So, almost roughly be in that
[28:30] v-shape, right? Yep, that in that reflect.
[28:33] Yeah, no, I didn't know it was that precise 10 840?
[28:38] Those love that and using it is across all psycho ads and and
[28:42] whatever display pieces. Yeah, it's a company rule.
[28:47] Google. Okay, let's do something more
[28:51] mythological since you did do a little previous order to Age of
[28:55] Mythology, this actually is a mythological story and it has a
[29:01] modern-day application, right? So I'm going to tell you the
[29:04] story, and you can tell me how it is represented in the
[29:07] modern-day right? This particular God.
[29:09] And I'm not giving you the names because that might make it too
[29:11] easy. This particular God from my
[29:13] theology was known to be secret. Tiff and and mischievous.
[29:18] Okay? So he would draw a veil of
[29:21] clouds around himself to hide his mischief.
[29:25] And his wife was, one of the only few people who would be
[29:28] able to peer through the clouds and reveal his true nature.
[29:34] Okay, so this is the mythological anecdote story,
[29:37] whatever. You might call it and it has a
[29:39] modern-day application or a modern-day relevance.
[29:42] So let us start off by just guessing what these more, which
[29:46] mythological character I'm talking about, goddamn takuma.
[29:50] Wow. Okay.
[29:52] Mysterious and wife was able to pierce the veil and identify I
[29:57] mean, when you think of God who are mischievous is putting it
[30:00] one way but the the the the famous kind of husband I've done
[30:03] week is most common in like Zeus and Hera but I don't think Jesus
[30:07] is mischievous. In the sense of hiding himself
[30:09] in clouds and things like that. This much more known for his
[30:12] other kind of exploit. So I mean, I don't think it is
[30:15] Zeus and Hera, but correct me if I'm wrong.
[30:19] You. You are so close.
[30:20] You're so close. It is not, Zeus and Hera.
[30:22] But it is very, very close if I may.
[30:25] Okay, Jupiter and what says, what Sarah is Roman mythology,
[30:31] you got that a truly, right? It is Jupiter, do you know the
[30:35] name of Harrah's? Roman counterpart?
[30:41] Truman counterpart doesn't looking thinking back to Pisces
[30:45] accent but I can't ever. Okay, so the the counterpart to
[30:53] Hera and Roman mythology is Juno, or Juno.
[30:57] Yes to know. Okay.
[30:58] Okay, okay, okay. Jupiter's it is mean, consort
[31:02] mean, wife, whatever. Okay, however, specifically the
[31:05] describe it. Okay.
[31:06] Now, let's talk about, where would you see this in in in the
[31:09] in today's world or Was this applied in the modern day?
[31:15] Jupiter and Juno piercing the way.
[31:17] I mean, all these things reminds me of like a radar or detection
[31:20] and things like that, like piercing the clouds, and things
[31:23] like that, something with the radio as well.
[31:26] You know, that's the other one that I can think of, but what
[31:29] steps to precisely about radio, it's something the band's.
[31:33] Is it something wrong with the names of the bands?
[31:35] Or, you know, receivers and run? No, no no.
[31:40] You are close, you're getting there, you're getting there your
[31:43] clothes here? Okay.
[31:45] Not got anything to do. Okay, let me also give you a
[31:47] time frame. It is 20 times.
[31:50] Internet-related something internet-related.
[31:52] Then definitely right. What about?
[31:55] No, no, it is not intimately to know.
[31:57] It's a it is a it okay. Piercing the waves but not
[32:01] internet-related. Okay.
[32:03] They have, I mean, I'm focusing on piercing the sky.
[32:06] He does is that I'm sure that's the part to focus on.
[32:08] I presume you are absolutely right piercing the sky.
[32:12] But where I would say we're in a metaphorical said, you know, in
[32:18] a very literal sense, would wear.
[32:21] So is there a skyscraper? No, no, you're going a bit cold.
[32:25] It's not as calculated by. Okay, 2010's you said right?
[32:31] Okay. Yeah. 2011 specifically L tell
[32:33] you 2011 specifically It was there a spaceship or something?
[32:37] Was named Juno or absolutely? Right.
[32:41] It is it is a NASA space probe that was sent to Jupiter into
[32:48] Jupiter's inner workings and to figure out Jupiter's
[32:53] gravitational field, magnetic field, poll and magnetars
[32:56] magnetosphere. And the space probe is called
[32:59] Juno. So, the idea was, you know, was
[33:02] the be able to peer into the Clouds Of Jupiter and and figure
[33:05] out What Jupiter is up to and that's our NASA named.
[33:09] This is yeah, great question. Great question.
[33:13] Yeah. All right, your turn.
[33:19] Do you know what animals are on the Australian coat of arms?
[33:23] I believe I have seen a version summer.
[33:27] I know there is a kangaroo for sure.
[33:30] Yep. Yep, the rest, I'll have to
[33:33] guess. So I'm going to say is there a?
[33:35] There's only one more lie. Okay.
[33:37] And that's not the main question.
[33:39] Whether it's just that, that's, that's one of those, you know,
[33:41] typical quiz special, you know a Droid, okay?
[33:43] It's an evil. And the kangaroo, the
[33:44] interesting, Is that why do you think they were chosen by?
[33:48] Do you think these two animals were chosen to be on the
[33:50] Australian coat of arms? Wow, interesting.
[33:54] I know I know Australia does have some sort of a contentious
[33:58] history with with the Emu is they have had their waged war on
[34:02] the emus and they lost but that happened after this.
[34:05] Yeah, that's the absolutely insane part of history that I
[34:09] love the gray to move or nipple still available, okay?
[34:15] Our emus. I mean, the obvious on the same
[34:17] to be amused and Kangaroo seem to be very resilient animals.
[34:20] And when study and Hardy and tough to kill It is a
[34:25] characteristic, it is not a resilient city after killed.
[34:28] I mean they're probably plenty of animals that do that but
[34:30] there is a specific characteristic of these two
[34:33] animals. That probably are very symbolic
[34:35] for a nation, we can imagine either on the coat of arms.
[34:38] So you won't probably want something very symbolic what
[34:41] about into animals, did they, or why did they choose these two
[34:44] animals? Specifically, there's something
[34:46] about them, what is it about that?
[34:49] I'm gonna I don't think kangaroos are known for the
[34:51] speed but I'm just going to guess that.
[34:53] Is it like that fast-moving? Is that a thing?
[34:55] Like it is Something about how they move.
[35:00] Okay, now we think about how they move.
[35:04] All that travel vast distances distances and that is what are
[35:08] still wants to do is go get very far negatory bird.
[35:12] Then you know, but something I don't think I can also emo right
[35:16] also. Don't this, I mean, focusing on
[35:17] camera is good because you probably are more familiar.
[35:20] I mean there's something about how kangaroos move read, like,
[35:22] what do you notice about how? Kangaroos, group, example, the
[35:26] leaped they leap and the sorry adding, which means And how did
[35:31] they leave? Like I said, you know again I'm
[35:33] not really familiar with this biology of kangaroos but okay,
[35:37] let me try. Does it have to do with?
[35:39] They are very öyou. Must also have good Runners.
[35:43] I'm guessing strong feeds or something along those lines.
[35:45] They are very sturdy and okay, okay.
[35:49] Yeah, it's something about how they move but it's a, it's a
[35:53] kind of secret is probably something that our nation would
[35:56] want to emulate. So what could that, which is
[35:59] what I'm trying to think of Like sturdiness, move fast pace and
[36:02] what we are going to take those are all probably things that we
[36:05] can find many examples. But there's something somewhat
[36:07] unique about, which I'm to and the e-book.
[36:09] So you could give me focus on the kangaroo, what do you think?
[36:12] Is a consequence of them kind of Leaping and going, right?
[36:16] Like what do you think is going to be difficult for them to do
[36:18] or probably almost impossible for them to do?
[36:23] What is something that cannot do that?
[36:24] Congress cannot do. So as a okay, also as a Young
[36:30] Nation in Jocelyn was at them, what do you want to keep doing?
[36:33] What do you want to keep doing it?
[36:34] What do you want to avoid? Doing is the question, right?
[36:38] Oh, okay. This is going to be random.
[36:40] I have no clue if this is true, but can they not move backwards?
[36:44] Yes, they cannot move backwards. Ha ha.
[36:47] I love that. Also cool bits.
[36:51] Kangaroos cannot move backwards. No kangaroos.
[36:54] Cannot go backwards and Emos. Also cannot move backwards,
[36:58] apparently so yeah. Yeah, that makes sense.
[37:01] That is probably one of the very few animals which can't do that.
[37:05] Then that is that is a really cool question.
[37:07] I love that. Okay, great.
[37:08] Alright, I think this, this could be the end of our episode
[37:11] and it's a lovely time to wrap it up.
[37:14] Okay, thank you so much. Thank you for joining us today.
[37:16] This was fantastic, fun episode and, and even as much as I
[37:19] missed beneath must say, I had a lot of fun today.
[37:23] And before I wrap up, I should do this feel that that we need
[37:27] does. So any listener who liked this

[37:55] question and the answer that happens at the end of every
[37:57] episode which brings us to you. Yeah, it's really hate them.
[38:02] Then definitely do that. Okay, so this is the question
[38:08] freshest in my mind is, is about coat of arms and animals.
[38:13] I'm gonna so get myself quietly canceled, but no, no, I'm going
[38:17] to save myself in my next week's episode.
[38:19] I'll figure out a way to not get cancelled.
[38:21] I mean, as this if If country, which country it, let's pick
[38:25] Antarctica. If Antarctica was to tomorrow
[38:27] declare independence and became a country of its own, which
[38:32] animal would they put on their coat of arms and this will be
[38:34] symbolic. So don't assume it's going to be
[38:36] something dumb, like the penguin.
[38:38] Nah, nah, nah, I wouldn't give you the answers.
[38:40] Like that, which animal don't unexpected, I never would
[38:44] Antarctica the nation put on its coat of arms if they were
[38:47] declared independence from the rest of people I guess.
[38:50] I don't know. Alright so that's my Shouldn't.
[38:53] And that would bring us to the end of the episode.
[38:55] Please, wait around after the miracle staying, I shall be
[38:57] doing the fact check. Thank you.
[38:59] Once again, HK, anything you want to shout, as you guys,
[39:01] could you give me the name of that podcast?
[39:03] Again? I would love to go.

[39:07] lateral by Tom Scott. I think so.
[39:09] Yes it. So listeners listeners.
[39:12] Please go check out this podcast.
[39:13] They contributed couple of em quick questions today.
[39:17] I guess. So thank you once again, h k and
[39:20] goodbye and see you guys next week.
[39:39] A quick note before the fact check, while researching the JFK
[39:43] assassination, and Lyndon B Johnson swearing-in story, I
[39:47] realized it would be better served as a standalone
[39:50] mini-episode rather than as part of a very long fact check.
[39:55] So watch out for that. Will put it out very soon and
[40:00] here's the fact check for the episode.
[40:02] The Air Force. One Call Sign was created in
[40:05] 1953 Minesweeper was installed by default with the flower tile
[40:12] option in Windows Vista and Windows. 7 since then, it hasn't
[40:17] come pre-installed on any Windows OS but it can be
[40:20] downloaded. The gherkin in London isn't
[40:25] officially declared to be inspired by the sea sponge,
[40:30] however, many experts claim that that is where the inspiration
[40:33] lies, and that's all for the factory.
