Hey, what's kind of
getting arrested.
He's getting ready to carry that cross up to Mount Sinai.
So it's pretty exciting times.
And we're going to just kind of wait and see what happens on Sunday morning.
The third day, which of course those Jews didn't really know how to count, you got Friday.
Apparently, it's day one for them. Saturday You got Friday. Apparently is day one for them.
Saturday is day two. Sunday is day three. I wouldn't want to have to take
calculus class with those guys. You're your priest or your rabbi or whoever
teaches you. My name is Quinn David Furnace and we are coming to you live from
the north side of Chicago with Quinn DavidDavid Ferness presents the B-town podcast. One of the top 500 podcasts on the north side of Chicago. I am the creator. I am the host,
the narrator, the art director, set designer, all that good stuff of this fine program.
And welcome into one of our big shows when we always celebrate Easter and pass over and good Friday and
Monday Thursday I got a
I posted on Instagram last
Yesterday, you know happy Monday Thursday show us your feet picks and I've gotten two likes from
Russian sex spots already so I think the story might have expired. So we got two likes. The only feet picks were my own, but I'll still cherish them. And, you know, they'll be just kind
of a nice commemorative memory, I would think. C-O-M-M-E-M-O-R-A-T-I-V-E commemorative. It's a nice
Friday, mid-morning here. It's actually not, it's not warm out,
but we got a heat wave coming next week.
We had some like, tornado warm weather
with crazy clouds and gusts early this week.
And now we're back into a small cold spell
and then we're going to be going back and not back,
but we're going to be getting as hot as it's been all year.
Next week, like 70, 75, something like that.
So today we're kind of the native of the weather,
NADIR, Ralph Nader.
But the sun is out, my plants getting some good action.
And the windowsill and the kitchen,
we got the cubs are back in town.
They haven't played in two days.
They had two days off one because of a
cancellation and Cincinnati and then a scheduled off day yesterday. They're playing the Texas Rangers
At home today a little inner league inner course. We're gonna have Alex Rodriguez
Pudge Rodriguez
Saying before we got cut off by GarageBand, maybe Nolan Ryan will be in the box seat.
So lots of things to be excited for.
First call to action for the beanheads today named five Texas Rangers in history.
That should keep you busy for a little while.
Let's see off the top of my head.
We got coach Ron Washington.
He was their manager both the years.
They went to the World Series. What was that 2010, 2011 back-to-back years?
They lost to the Cardinals and probably the Giants,
most of them one of those Giants years.
Let's see, I already mentioned Alex Rodriguez,
Pudge Rodriguez.
Well, actually did Alex Rodriguez play for the Rangers?
I know he played for the Mariners.
Well, we'll count that as one and a half.
You got Michael Young, was there really strong
second baseman for a while?
Oh, the drug addict.
Josh, what's his name?
I'm going to give myself half a point for that.
He was a really good player for a while.
He might have even won MVP.
I can't remember.
And then he was a drug addict.
So it was kind of up and down, kind of, kind of weird. Other great Texas Rangers.
I don't know Chuck Norris. Not sure. We'll come back to that if I think of anything, but
you all then tune into our Easter slash good Friday slash Passover episode to listen to
Quinlist famous Texas Rangers Nolan Ryan. There's one throughout history. He played for
Texas for a while. He played for Texas and Houston. So good stuff. We were talking, it was
just last week with opening day about some great new foods at Globally Field there in Arlington.
And there was the one who was one of the Texas ones had the two foot long burger patty with
the onion rings on top and then like a hero bun, which looked pretty appetizing.
But also one of those things where it's like once you start to hit the halfway point,
you start to feel your chest get a little tight.
The arteries are bulging out of your forehead and stuff and you just got to be careful.
So make sure you wash it down with an adult beverage of your choice, preferably something
Texas themed.
I don't know.
Are there any like mass breweries or beers that come out of Texas?
There must be and I just don't know.
Maybe Sam Houston could be the the sister beer to Sam Adams in the bean town.
I don't know. Listen to discretion is advised when you're listening Adams in bean town. I don't know.
Listen to discretion is advised when you're listening
to the bean town podcast.
Number one, we'll occasionally use some language number
to this podcast is objectively terrible.
But we're going to have some fun today.
We've got stuff for all you Jews.
We've got stuff for you Gentiles, even the pagans.
pagans, P-A-G-A-N-S.
Almost a palindrome are going to have fun.
And speaking of palindromes,
let's get, before we forget, let's get started right there with today's
palindrome of the day. Of course, it's a very religious time. So we have to have a
religious palindrome. And I gotta tell you, I've been doing some research. I don't
know how long we can keep up palindrome of the day. At least this sort of
high quality.
I mean, if you want me to start giving you
lame ones like none or Bob or a man, a plan, a cannell,
a panema, then, you know, obviously amateur
or anyone can do that off the top of their head.
But this, you know, coming up with fresh hot new ones
that are interesting, that are thought provoking.
It's a challenge.
So today it is Bible Baby Babel Bib.
Again, this Bible Baby Babel Bib.
Tower of Babel, a great Elton John Tune
from the Captain Fantastic in the Brown,
Der Cowboy album.
It's party time for the gods and the tower of Bable. Man, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, where even the not super popular songs are just spectacular. I mean, I'm thinking Tower of Babel, I'm thinking
bitter fingers. That's a killer song. Of course, a lot of you probably know someone saved my life
tonight. That's off of that record. So really good one. If you don't know Captain Fantastic and
the Brounder Cowboy, it's probably about 40 minutes long. Definitely worth putting on a listen.
Next time you're on your evening walk, perhaps,
could be good.
So what else are we doing on the show today?
We've already done Paladrum of the Day.
We're going to hear from our sponsors in a little bit.
It's always great when you have a religious themed episode
to hear from our friends at the SAMHSA and Q2U series,
First Kings, Second Kings, Second Chronicles, wherever he showed up, I don't
even know.
We're going to be talking traditional Passover, Sater, dinner and dishes.
We're going to break that down for you.
And then we got some Easter themed, Exodus themed trivia.
I got two different questions for you that I think you'll enjoy.
So let's jump right into it here so we're not wasting anyone's
time. I know it's probably Sunday morning, you're probably, you know, you're at church, you get
the notification on your phone, oh new bean-town podcast just dropped and you're trying to think,
do I go up for a communion? Do I go out in the back? Like, you know, I got a crying baby or something,
except it's the bean-town podcast, which know, I got a crying baby or something, except it's the
bean town podcast, which sometimes I'm like a crying baby, but usually slightly less composed,
you're making a tough decision. Do you listen to bean town or do you stick to church? So I'm going
to tell you, I'm going to tell you this, you can do both. Just find one of those, you know, church
services like old rock church that's, you know, two hours long or something like that.
Or one time we went to, it was a Baptist church, we had family friends who the God had three
and one, the patriarch was the, I think the main preacher there, I'm not sure it was, maybe
on the west side of Rockford or like downtownish on the east side, can't really remember.
But we went to those, we were in an exploratory church phase
for, you know, it was basically our version
of the 40 years wandering in the desert.
And we went to a whole bunch of different churches,
which in hindsight is just, I won't say like,
that's crazy, it's just wild that every Sunday
it was like pull up the map, pick a church,
let's try this one.
We must have gone to, I don't know, 75, 80 different churches.
No, that's not right.
But probably at least like, I don't know, five, six, seven different ones in the span
of a couple months.
But we went to this one.
It was a Baptist church.
I think it's the only time I've ever gone like legit been there the whole time to a Baptist
church service.
And it was just what you would expect from a Baptist church service.
There's a lot of music.
There's like an hour of music to start and you're thinking,
oh, maybe this is just one of, maybe this is like a cool church that only does music.
There's not going to be announcements.
There's not going to be a skit from the youth group.
There's certainly not going to be a full-length sermon that breaks down chapters
five through ten of Exodus or anything like that, right?
Wrong. You're getting you're getting all of it.
When you go to a Baptist church service, you're getting the full-length concert, you're getting the full-length
sermon, you're getting all the good stuff.
Except I don't recall, I don't know if the baptists
are as big on communion.
That's the one thing that the Catholic Scott going
without fail.
And you know when it's coming in the program,
it's a long program, but you know when it's coming,
you get your bread, your wine, if you go to one of the,
you know, richer suburbs, you might get, you know,
a really nice Cabernet-solving yarn.
So I think the Baptist, they got the music,
they got the energy, they got the passion.
Now we just need to add a little bit more alcohol to mix.
Maybe if the Catholic, if wine is kind of the Catholic thing,
maybe the Baptist could go for,
I don't know, they could do like rye whiskey or something
or scotch if they were,
you know, Scottish Baptist, I don't know if there's a big
Baptist population in the Highlands there,
but just things to consider, look, I'm always,
especially on our religious theme shows,
I'm always on the lookout to try to,
I'm kind of like a Nathan for you,
but for religious entities and organizations specifically.
I'll help you evate taxes.
I will help you lobby politicians for your, well, no, I won't for certain marginalizations,
if you will, speaking of which, the Chick-fil-A, I think is open now in Rigglyville,
or it's going to be open very soon and that's going to be a hard no from me dog.
They're doing some strong construction on what's supposed to be the culverts so
that's really what I'm holding out for. But let's jump back into it here. Let's
talk Passover dinners and we've mentioned this on the bean-town podcast before. Used to do Passover supper growing up as a family and always, you know, growing up, you're just, you know what you're taught.
That sort of thing.
And hindsight, it was a very kind of strange merging of cultures, you know, and I guess the, because Passover Seder now is very much like a Jewish thing.
Passover dinners in general, but we were, we were very not Jewish, we were very non-denominational Protestant.
And I think the only thing I can really say or figure from it is that Jesus, King of the Jews, yes, Jesus was a Jew, did the whole
Passover thing last supper on the winds, you know, your Passover winds day,
then your Monday, Thursday, then your good Friday, then your your black Friday,
and then whatever, this the super Saturday, sweet 16, I don't know what it is,
and then you have your Easter Sunday, and Easter Monday too, apparently. I don't
know what, you know, if they kind of just wanted to keep the celebration going.
I don't really know what happens on Easter Monday.
Nothing for me.
But so that's why I think we celebrated or or partook in Passover, satir dinner, although
we never would have called it satyr dinner. But basically what
goes on the plate, we've talked about this, and I'm getting this from the
spruce eats.com, so you can check it out, you can read along if you'd like. But it
all starts off with the satyr plate, and I think you know we were probably
using, you know, daisy brand paper plates back then. But apparently other people have nicer plates
that have some fun decorations.
It could be three crosses.
It could be, you know, a severed head of a lamb
to represent, you know, when the angel of death
comes to the, the, the Alexandra or Giza
or wherever those Israelites, the Hebrews were enslaved Cairo
You could do you could have you know people always say like oh, I see an image of Jesus in this log or in this piece of toast
Well, you could just do an NFT or something. I don't even know an NFT of a of
Jesus on a plate although I don't I don't know if we're really doing physical NFTs.
I think to be an NFT, it has to be sort of digital.
Moving ahead here, so to get to the actual dishes here,
I thought about doing like a power ranking,
but we're just gonna go through it,
which I think we've done something similar to this
in previous installments of the Bean Town Podcast,
which is one of the big issues, you know,
as we look at it to the next 100 years
of the Bean Town Podcast, we have these shows that occur annually unless they, unless the
church decided to do like Easter, kind of like the Olympics, whereas every four years, or you
could have, you could have Easter every four years, you could have, and then you could switch,
you could do another religious holiday. I don't think we could get away with Christmas. I kind
of like having that one every year.
But something else, like the, like the column,
rock church Columbus day, like football tournament.
That could be every four years also,
but two years stagnated from, that's not the right word,
but you know what I'm trying to say,
towards two years after Easter.
So I don't know if that's gonna be very popular though.
It would mean fewer opportunities for me
to wear my dynamite purple suit,
which I'm gonna break out.
We'll see how the Catholics feel about that on Sunday,
but it's gonna happen.
So the first dish here is,
and I'm not trying to mispronounce anything,
but I'm not Hebrew, I don't speak the Yiddish language
or anything like that.
So first up is Carpus, K-A-R-P-A-S. Apparently this is a vegetable, preferably parsley
or celery, representing hope and redemption.
It's served with a bowl of salted water or vinegar to represent the tear shed by the Israelites.
So there's something, you know, when we're talking about getting started with a nice hefty meal,
there's something that really gets me hungry for more.
It's parsley dipped in vinegar.
Now, if that doesn't wake you up or get you going, get you excited for the garden of
Gethsemane and all that is to come, you come. Years getting chopped off and smooches on the lips.
Did you just kiss him on the cheek?
Maybe he should have kissed him on the lips.
I don't know if that would have changed anything,
but it could have been pretty spicy.
Maybe we'll save that for the good Friday fan fiction novel
that I may or may not be currently working on.
But that's how it starts the carpice.
I always remember we had to have a sprig of parsley
on the plate.
And it was always kind of like,
I don't know what I'm supposed to do with this.
We watch, tell you what,
we watch a lot of cooking shows,
your chop, your beat Bobby Flays,
lately a lot of cutthroat kitchen.
And what they'll always tell you,
if you give them a big sprig,
a big bunch of parsley on your plate,
they're just like,
what am I supposed
to do with this? And that's how I feel about this opening dish. It's only compounded by the
fact that it's dipped in vinegar, apparently. Plumbing ahead here, my definitely by far my least
favorite thing growing up, the Marr, M-A-R-O-R, a bitter herb, usually horse radish.
There it is.
It used to symbolize the bitterness of slavery,
either a piece of fresh horse radish
or a spoonful of horse radish is placed on the plate.
During the service, Halal Sandwich is made.
Oh God, combining the marr with charisette
between two pieces of matza, M-A-T-Z-O-H.
I don't know exactly what's the charoset.
We didn't talk about that already.
But yeah, nothing says, nothing says a great sandwich.
Oh, okay, the charoset is coming.
That's the sweet, dark colored paste made of fruits and nuts.
That's actually not terrible out of all the things on here.
It's probably the most tolerable. But nothing says, hmm, I think, you know, Jimmy John Subway, if you
guys are listening to this Chi Bahut, take some notes. This is how you're going to bring
those Hebrews in. This is how you're going to bring those Jews in the Jewish folks up
from, you know, West, Westridge and West Rogers Park and stuff you need to serve the Hillel Sandwich all you it's simple you just need fruits nuts
Matsu, I guess they call it bread. It feels more like a cracker to me like a big cracker
And then your horse rider sauce which you probably already have on hand. So hmm, that's pretty delicious
All right moving ahead here as we continue here
So we had we mentioned the charisette, which is CHAR O-S-E-T.
This is a mixture of apples or dried fruit nuts wine.
I gotta tell you when we were growing up,
we did not get the wine part.
Mostly just chopped up apples and nuts
and kind of a red blend or something.
Although I don't know where the red,
maybe it was just red
die 40, probably had a lot of that growing up. And other spices, Charisette is a reminder of the
mortar used by the Jews as slaves and the construction of buildings for the Pharaoh,
there's many recipes and variations. Yeah, so that was one of those things we definitely had
as part of the Passover plate or the Sater plate. And it was, you know, kind of like,
or the Sater Plate. And it was kind of like everything on there
in terms of being a very small quantity.
Definitely one of those nights for cost saving purposes,
you don't have to do much grocery shopping,
you got a lot of those items on hand,
already chopped nuts, apples.
So you don't have to,
we didn't even have hillow sandwiches growing up.
I'll say this, if you wanted to serve that off to the side,
at least we're getting some extra bites in here, but the charisette was really just kind of
It was almost like having dessert as part of your your satire plate and
Not my favorite thing in the world, but I will take it over the horse radish and the
That's strike two for garage band, but finishing or continuing on here with our Passover
Plate, we have something that's very similar sounding and it's spelled almost exactly
the same.
It's the Chaz-erat, not Chaz-Bano, not Sunny-Bano.
This is the Chaz-Serat.
So let's see, it looks like kind of like a leak on a plate
if I can tell you exactly what I'm seeing here.
It's nothing, nothing particularly appetizing,
but it's the second bitter herb.
You know, that I always feel that,
I always feel that when I make dinner,
just generally, or if you know, my big batch cooking
on Monday night, big bitch cooking could be a new show idea.
Or it's a nicer supper we might cook on a Friday.
I'm always thinking, you know what we need here?
A second bitter herb.
So it's a chaser at a second bitter herb
in the form of a bitter green, often romaine lettuce.
I would, if we're talking romaine lettuce,
we did not have that pass over growing up,
but you could start to formulate a nice,
think about this like a chopped salad.
If you have the other one, the charisette,
not the chasera, but the charisette,
I guess it's supposed to be a sound,
but that's tough on the throat after a while.
The charisette, you add the little,
kind of the candied spiced nuts and apples,
now we're doing some romaine.
I would even take a sprig of parsley on the top
You could just very covertly swap out the horse radish with some hidden valley ranch buttermilk dressing
Now we're talking you get a little protein in there. I don't know how the hello sandwich really fits in here I think I'll nnessl. Do fish
You know like a dried fish. I think if you have like a nice like tuna steak or something,
if you sear that just medium well, oh, that would be delicious.
Now we're talking, but a lot of us didn't get domain lettuce growing up or endive is the
other example of a second bitter herb that they mentioned.
That might be what's on the plate here, because I don't know when I'm looking at endive
E and D-I-V-E, we're learning something.
Is a leaf vegetable belonging to the genus?
Okay, yada, yada, yada.
I don't think this is something you can really find.
There's a Belgian endive, something you can't really find
at your trader joeus, but you can check anyways.
Maybe for Passover week, I don't know.
Some families will include it as such on the cedar plate, cedar plate, well also ebonyns
of cedar, cedar is ebonyns.
Well others will use horse radish twice.
So that's, you know, if you have to decide between a nice fresh endive or horse radish
twice, I'd probably go with the nice fresh endive just to, you know, because horse radish
twice is just that feels lazy.
I don't know about you guys. Plowing ahead here, pizza, not pizza, pizza with a B, B-E-I-T-Z-A-H,
a roasted egg. This was something I don't think we had growing up. I do not recall the roasted egg.
And I would have remembered it because if mom would have said, yeah, we're having pizza for dinner,
I would have said, all right, I'll have sausage, pepperoni,
double cheese, please.
No, this is, this is pizza, she would say.
I roasted egg symbolizes life and the perpetuation
of existence.
You can use a hard boiled egg or roast the egg in a shell.
OK, now they're giving cooking instructions.
Not important.
Dip in saltwater also.
There's a lot of Jewish tears as part of this.
I think we should, what if we,
you know, this is a very salty thing, you can still have some of your salt, your vinegar,
dipped parsley, all that stuff, but we need some sweet as well. And I know we get some of that
from the candies or the apples and the nuts, but I'm thinking what if there was like a big,
a big job raker as part of Sator dinner as well.
It could be on the plate, kind of its own thing,
you could decorate it, you could paint it like you paint your eggs.
I don't know, I think just something new
or like some Jolly Ranchers or something.
We're almost done here at the Zora, ZER OAH.
Traditionally, Zer-Zeroa is a piece of roasted lamb shank bone, symbolizing the
patchical sacrificial offering in the outstretched arm of God. If it is
difficult to find a lamb bone, you can use a poultry neck or wing and you're
supposed to roast it. So here's the thing, you're supposed to roast it at 375
in the oven for about 30 minutes, but it's not eaten obviously. It's a lamb shank Bone so what's the point like at this point? I'm getting concerned with the Hebrews because you're using all that energy to fuel your
You know clay pot ovens or whatever they use back in the day and we could be using that to power
You know send our kids to schools
Invest in you know green energy. You could just not do it, I don't know.
So they don't seem to be that big on sustainability
and green stuff.
Well, there's a lot of green stuff on the plate,
but I guess beyond that.
So other symbolic foods that you might find on your
satir plate, MOTSA, of course, traditional and love and bread,
we would always have, I don't know,
would you, I don't remember it specifically being called Matsu
that we would have grown up,
but we would have oftentimes, yeah, that's exactly what it is.
I don't have to tell you exactly what that is.
I think we all understand it's very flavorless.
I think if I had like some chocolate syrup or something or here's the thing, if you
want a fried egg, if you want to fry your pizza rather than just roasting it in the oven,
you fry an egg, you throw on maybe some bacon, I don't know if the Hebrews were big on pork
or it could be like turkey sausage or something, I'm sure they had turkeys in Egypt. You know, you could all fry that up and then, I don't know.
It's not going to be quite as nice as a burrosh kind of buttered roll.
So what if we, you know, let's sub out, here's a real hello sandwich.
Sub out the matza, get a nice buttered burrosh or chibatta, CIA, B-A-T-T-A-Chibatta.
Some nice turkey sausage rendered in pork fat,
so it's like all the guilt without the calories.
You can, we mentioned fry an egg,
you might fry two eggs on there.
Maybe a nice thin, two thin slices of avocado,
usually you get the big chunks,
but this could be nice to get you a little bit of flavor.
It would go well with the fat of the rendered pork
grease, add some more fat to it, and of course the butter, which is good. And now we're
cooking. That's really a Hillel sandwich. So, capping off our satyr supper here, Jimmy
John's subway, Jersey Mike's Firehouse subs, whoever is listening to this looking for the next great product idea.
Call it the Hillel Sandwich, but don't even, you know, you just make it good.
And if anyone complains or they're like, is this kosher you to say, yeah, I was blessed
by Rabbi Jersey Mike, okay, because he got ordained earlier.
So there you go, or Jared from Subway
or Jimmy John himself found it in Illinois somewhere, right?
I think it's from like Bloomington.
So there's our Sator rundown here on the Bean Town Podcast,
a brand new segment that I think we did last year as well.
I want to shout out our sponsors as we plow ahead here
and finish up with some trivia, Home Pride Oregon.

When God speaks, he uses a Samsung.
And did I mention the crisp, clear audio quality.
Finally, Bob and Weave, we all know the hairstyle and we all
love it, but how many Chicago-based independent
barbers can actually give it to you the way you deserve?
Enter Cuts by Q. It's a little like Enter Sandman,
just different. Cuts by Q has been independently owned and operated since 1995 and is probably one of the
better barbershop operations serving Chicago, Cook County, Northwest Indiana, and the greater
Chicago land area.
From beehives to bangs, fallhooks to flat tops, and everything in between called Cuts
by Q. No, well, yeah, you can.
Probably go to voicemail.
A lot of, I've been getting a lot of spam calls lately, you know. Sometimes I pick up and I will play like a cool song on YouTube and they just sort of hang up and I'm like, man
If I was going through the effort to make calls I would at least want to
You know listen to some John mayor free fall in live at
You know city field or something
But I digress a bit on the John mayor kick lately or. Or you can email cutsbyqatyahoo.com.
That's cutsqutzmyqatyahoo.com. Oh, and you need a fresh do something snappy and new. Just
call the experts that cuts by Q. And here's your annual reminder that Peter cottontail is a total banger.

Gunning down the bunny trail, hippity, hoppity, Easter's on its way.
Classic, children love it, especially in Tennessee.
Easter bunny with a gun, there's something to put
in your chat, GPT.
I feel like chat GPT is just like,
in the last two weeks, two, three weeks,
it's like all I see, not all I see,
but I've just seen so much of it,
whereas before I never even heard of it.
It's such a wild phenomenon,
a lot of talk about it in the college admissions world.
Okay, we're gonna finish up with two trivia questions here.
Neither one of them are crazy in depth or
involved. They're pretty kind of just surface level what you see is what you
get. So the first one, excuse me, we oftentimes around this time of year talk
about the 10 Commandments, the great film, you will bring her in Charlton
Heston, it's 220 minutes long, all that good stuff,
but a lot of people I think don't know this.
So we know the Ten Commandments, 1956,
Epic Religious Drama Film, obviously,
directed by the incomparable C. Sol B. DeMille,
maybe almost a palindrome.
But what I'm saying, a lot of people don't know
is that it's actually a remake of a 1923
silent film which was kind of like the 1956 one but just slightly lesser in scope.
So my question to you is who directed and it's a legendary director who directed the
1923 silent film also called the 10 Commandments.
The one we know, the one that's played on ABC or used to be probably Apple TV now.
From 1956 that was directed by Cecil B. DeMille but who directed the 1923 silent film.
So there's your first one. The second one, we'll do our answers
after the second question here.
Second one is more Easter themed
unless Exodus themed.
So it's more geography, okay,
geography history, that sort of thing.
So here we go.
European Explorer, and I looked it up, he was Dutch,
but it's someone I don't know. European explorer and I looked it up, he was Dutch, but it's someone I don't know.
European explorer Jacob Rogovine, R-O-G-G-E-V-E-N, discovered this southeast Pacific island on
April 5, 1722.
And I want to be very clear when I say discovered I'm saying he's the first European
Person to lay eyes in recorded history to lay eyes on the island people have been living in this place
Since like 800 AD or something so Jacob Roggovine on April 5th
1722 became the first European to set eyes on this
South Pacific Island
So there are your two trivia questions
I
Think that second one is is either like I have no idea what you're talking about or oh
I know what the theme of this podcast is so I can come up with it the first one is a little bit of a trick question
And I don't usually like to do trick questions,
so I apologize, but I think the film buffs
out there would be able to call it right away.
So the answer to question number one,
the 1923 silent film, the Ten Commandments,
that the 1956 film would expand upon,
was directed by this legendary director
and the correct answer.
And I hate to do this to you, but it's also Cecil B. DeMille, which is pretty cool. You don't really hear about that anymore. What if Mel Gibson made another passion of the Christ in 10 years,
30 years after the fact that'd be pretty crazy, if like Steven Spielberg wanted to make minority report again
or could have chosen 50 other Spielberg films.
But the 1923 silent film, The Ten Commandments
was also directed by Cecil B. Demille
and then our second trivia question here,
Jacob Robin Lovon discovered this Southeast Pacific Island in April 5, 1722.
When I say discovered, of course, first European delay eyes on it, people have been living
there long before it was, quote, discovered.
Don't have to think too hard.
It is a very holy, pious week, culminating in Easter Sunday. So the answer is Easter Island because he
laid eyes on it on Easter Sunday
1722 this day in history 301
Years ago and plus two days. Let's say April 7th today. So there you go

good stuff.

I just got to get organized. Okay. I hope everyone has great holy weekend Easter Sunday. Don,
you're, you're great, you know, big suits in your pastoral, pastoral pastel colors. And

fun stuff. My name is Quinn David Furnace. This is my show. Happy it. Easter beagle, Charlie Brown, all the good fun stuff.
My name is Quinn David Furnace.

Hopefully I don't think I offended too many religious groups,
which is not common for this show.
So I'm going to notch that as a win.
Maybe we'll try to shop this to some of the local churches.
They could play this instead of a sermon, get the pastor the week off.
Just thinking out loud here.
Go out, enjoy the sunshine, have a nice weekend,
stay safe, stay sane, I'll check in on you next time. Bye. I'm just going to sit there. ndご視聴ありがとうございました
