People, welcome to the reverse bean dish quiz. Yes. For new listeners or those with poor memories, the bean dish quiz is, we've had two previous bean dish quizzes. Bean dish is based, Tim, do you remember where the term bean dish comes from for our quizzes? I was trying to think of this again today and I can't. You said something and I misheard it as bean dish, but it was something else, wasn't it? It was fiendish.

Fiendish, that's right. Yes, yes. That's it. I said I had a fiendish quiz for Tim. He heard it as bean dish, hence the legend was born. And we've had two of them and both times I have quizzed Tim. This is the reverse bandage because today I am the victim. Tim is going to quiz me.

I have had no control over the preparation of this episode, and I cannot tell you how much anxiety and trepidation I'm feeling about the lack of control I have over this episode. It is making me sick to my stomach. Oh, man, that's awesome. I love it. This is three bean dish. Oh, nice. You know, you buy cans of three beans. Yes. Sorry. Three beans. This is the three bean dish quiz. All right. Tim, is there anything I need to know about how this is going to work or like, you know, structure or what you're doing or like, you know, are you going to be keeping score or what's going on?

Look, yes, I will. I have to say that one of the things I'm nervous about is I know that you're a real quiz master. Like, I know you love crafting quizzes and you're going to be all the way through critiquing how I'm going and how I've put it together. And so I'm even a bit more, I'm a bit nervous about that. But I do feel I'm very happy with the quiz. I think it's a sort of a high-level, sale-of-the-century-level quiz. There are several rounds and the rounds have themes and we'll follow them. And I've lent into your interests.

I know you have just a small niche of things that you know a lot about, and so I've tried to sort of, you know, home in on those a little bit and stay away from the more general knowledge stuff that I know you struggle with. For the civilians listening along, are they going to be able to participate? Any advice for them? Is there anything we can do to make this more interactive for them?

Well, obviously, like any quiz, I'll be asking a question. I'll pause. You'll probably take a good amount of time to think it over. You'll come back with an answer. But in the meantime, people can be answering it themselves, writing it down on a piece of paper. That would be helpful. Then I guess I can't recall.

Do we give the answer straight away and give you a mark? I think we do that as we go. We don't wait to the end of the round, certainly not the end of the quiz. So step by step, people will know how they're going. All right. So you'll tell me the answers as we go, as I get them wrong, probably. That's right. Yes, absolutely. How did you go about the preparation? Did you get out like encyclopedias and stuff like that? What were you – and how long have you spent on this? It's all up here, my friend. The encyclopedia was the one that I was drawing upon.

The Heinlopedia. I was using hindsight. I opened the laptop and I sat on the couch and I went, right, where do we start? And then I just went from there and things came to me. Yeah. And I have to say I did do a little bit of research on some of your, like your website and your blog and some of your video channels.

So I've made it a bit easier for you all right all right all right well the quiz master tint this is your tony barber moment take it away it is it is and i don't have like a beautiful assistant or anything with me as well to talk to i feel like people already know you so normally you get to know the contestant a little bit you know but let's just presume people know who you are and have listened before. Okay. Yep. And so it's time for round one, and round one is called Numberphile.

Okay. So. There's a bit of a trademark infringement going on already here, Tim. Just hold off on that letter to the lawyers until we finish the whole quiz, okay? Because that'll save you time. Okay. Okay. According to popular culture, what is the loneliest number?

Oh. Okay, according to popular culture, what is the loneliest number? Oh, one is the loneliest number. That's the song, isn't it? Very good. Very good, yes. So that's good. That's a nice easy one to start with. There we go. See?

Yeah. Just relax, take a drink, sit back. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yep. It's nice. I thought that was going to be based on like a Numberphile video where I'd done like some mathematical loneliest number.

I'm like, I don't remember making that video. We're starting easy and we're moving into these questions are all in Numberphile about numbers and so forth. So here we go. Question number two. We're sitting on 100% at the moment. So well done, man. That's good.

Yeah. Nice. Nice. Question number two. What is the magic number according to the hip-hop group De La Soul? What is the magic number? Oh, I know the song. Yeah, here's a magic number.

Is it three? Is that your final answer? Yeah, I'm going to go for three. Correct. Well three. Correct. Well done. Oh, that's great. Here we go. You promised me a number file and everything's about music so far.

It's all about numbers so far. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Which number was Hawthorne player Dermot Brereton's number? Oh, I know. I do know this. Because coincidentally, he made the number 23 famous before Michael Jordan did, didn't he?

Correct. This was Tim's favourite Australian rules footballer. And he wore 23. I wouldn't have known that back in the day, but I've known that more recently. There you go. Well done. Well done. Dermot was wore 23. I wouldn't have known that back in the day, but I've known that more recently. 23. There you go. Well done. Well done. Dermy was number 23.

Three out of three so far. Wow. This is maybe I've lowballed it. I don't know. Hmm. What number of seasons were there of the TV show Seinfeld? Oh. So, I don't know the answer to this at all.

I'm just going to have to guess. The first number that came into my head was eight for some reason. That feels a bit low, but I'm going to go with eight, although I think maybe I've low-balled it there. Incorrect. Nine. Nine. Oh. Because he was famously offered like $100 million to do one more, to do one more for ten.

But yes, no, there's nine. So, that's wrong. I'm putting a cross there and that's zero. Okay. I was pretty close. Well, yes. Well, that's true. That wrong i'm putting a cross there and that's okay i was pretty close well yes well that's true that's true you were very close and the early seasons were very short they had brief episodes or you know like fewer episodes right if you rounded them off and even them out the mean i think would be but anyway all right let's move to something a little bit

there were you doing all right all right there two. No, there are three more questions. How, no, question number five. What number is the title of rock band Blur's sixth album? I know you saw Blur in concert just a few weeks ago and you've become quite the Blur fan, I understand. Yeah. Okay. So I don't know. I, I understand. Yeah. Okay. So, I don't know. I don't know the answer.

Okay. So, I mean, because it's their sixth album, maybe they called it six. That would be like using some logic to try and get it right. Other than that, I'm just going to be guessing a number, and that's probably not smart. So, although it doesn't ring true and I don't think it's correct, I can't say anything other than six. Incorrect. No. Their sixth album is number 13, which is also the name

of their studio. So... Okay. Right. So you've learned something there about Blur. That's something you can jot down. I have. I have learned something. Don't tell. I happen to know a member of Blur. So don't tell him that I got that wrong. No, I won't.

All right. I'm going to ask you a question now that I also asked you about 25 years ago. So I'll see if you know the answer this time. Okay. What number of members, original members, were in the band in excess? How many original members in the band in excess? In its prime.

I know they've had a few, you know, since Michael Hutchence died, there's been other, but ignoring all them, of the band we know, how many members have been in excess? There's Michael Hutchence, obviously. And there's those two Ferris brothers. And then there's that guy that wears glasses. So, that's what I'm going to go with. Is there a fifth? I'm going to go with four. Four.

Unfortunately, that's what you said 25 years ago, and you were wrong then and you're wrong now. There are six members of In Excess. So. Okay. There are three Ferris Brothers, plus Michael Hutchence. Yeah. Plus the bass player, Gary Gary Beers, and then the guy with glasses, which is Kirk Pengilly.

So, there you go. Okay. Incorrect. So I've got three out of six so far in this music round. Yes, yes. I tell you what, you're not across numbers as much as I thought you were. For someone that has a whole channel. Everything's about music.

It's like in the office, the British office, when Gareth Keenan runs the quiz and every question's about war and soldiers and stuff. You're like- Well, hang on. Okay. Okay. There's- All right. There are no more music-related questions in the remainder of Numberphile, all right?

In the remainder of Numberphile, right. But plenty more in the other rounds. Oh, yeah. It's basically just a music quiz. I should have known this was going to happen. Name five television programs with numbers in their title. Okay. Beverly Hills 90210.

Correct. All right, let me think. The Famous Five. Oh, well, I guess that was a TV show. Well done. Correct. Hawaii Five-O. Correct.

I had that one here too. Um. That's three. Two to go. Yeah. Okay. Oh, The 100, which was a show I just watched on Netflix. Correct. That's like a game show, isn't it?

So, fair enough. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I'll give you that. Four. Um, okay. Um. Yeah. Yeah. All right. I'll give you that. Four. Okay. I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you for your answer.

Hang on. I can have a bit more time, can't I? I'm just going through each number. That could take a while. Yeah. If you do that, one will come to you, that's for sure. Can I have Buck Rogers in the 21st century? The 21st?

You can. Yes, no, fair enough. That's all right. Is it? Yeah. Yes, I know. I can't see a reason to disallow that. There is a better one to use that number for, though.

The 21? What would that have been? 21 Jump Street. Oh, yeah, that would have been a good one to use that number for, though. 21? What would that have been? 21 Jump Street. Oh, yeah, that would have been a good one. Yeah. No, but you got there. You got five. So, well done.

Five out of five. I also thought of the show 24 and there's 30 Rock and Third Rock from the Sun. Yeah. And perhaps you playing at home may have thought of some others as well. But I also had Hawaii Five-0, but well done with 90210. But Rogers in the 25th century. Bonus question to round out. It's not related to round out number file,

but it's not related to numbers. It's related to 90210, which is what does the E stand for in Joe E. Tata? So minor character Joe E. Tata. That's an actor in the show whose name always came up and we never know who he was. He was. You famously pinpointed him down as being the guy at the Peach Pit who ran the Peach Pit.

Who I – yeah. Brandon's boss. What does the E stand for in Joe E. Tata? He looked like – I'm going to go for Enzo. No, incorrect. It's Evan. So – He didn't look like an Evan.

No, not at all. It's a bit weird. He looked more Enzo. He did. We'll go with enzo bonus point there well done man so all right all right well that's it that's the end of numberphile and so you've you've got that was not what i well it wasn't what i thought it was going to be when you said the name but it was it was probably what i should have expected it was it was it you did quite well yeah. It was. You did quite well. I think you did about as well as I thought. You started stronger than I thought, but then you finished it off

reasonably well. So well done. Now, do you need to go and rest for a bit or take a toilet break or something or do you want to just continue on? No, I'm ready for the next batch of music questions. All right. I'm ready for the next batch of music questions. All right.

What's the next round? The next round is called the periodic table. Okay. Periodic table of elements. And so question number nine this is, because question eight was the Joey Tata one. So question number nine this is, because question eight was the Joey Tata one. So question number nine, how many of the elements on the periodic table are metals? So you've famously done a video about all elements on the periodic table.

You've made multiple videos about all of the elements on the table. How many of them are metals? I could be really geeky here. Like, I'm not going to get it right, and I don't know the exact answer. But I could be quite – this could go a lot of ways, this question, because obviously it depends how one defines the periodic table. Like, there are elements that they've only made a few atoms of that last for just a few seconds, like element 118. Well, that might not be a metal, but like element 116, for example,

which has only existed for milliseconds. Yeah. It would technically be a metal, but it doesn't exist as a metal in nature. I'm going to guess the answer you've gone for goes up to about element 92, because they're the ones that exist in nature. And let's see. Let's take off. There is a periodic table behind me and in front of me,

but I'm endeavouring not to look. I'm going to take off about six and then take off seven and then take off another. I'm just going to have an approximate guess of around 73. I'm going to think you're not counting the really high ones. Incorrect. Now, I'm obviously relying on others for the knowledge of this and so forth, and there's a couple of numbers, but the numbers,

the most common number that I could find is 93. So they are counting. They are counting all the ones beyond 100. They are counting all the way up to 118 then. Right. Okay. Well, I'm going off for all these questions in this round on the periodic table, I'm basing my questions on the periodic table that's on your blog, like your periodic table.

So. Okay. Yeah. You got that clear in your mind? All right. All right right so that's incorrect so far okay incorrect fair enough i would never i wouldn't have got it right even if you were doing it my way i don't think so i'm not i feel no bitterness there a lot of metals a lot of a lot of elements are metals that's interesting um most of them are metal and most of them all look the

same as well oh that's cool oh that's what I should have done as a question. I should have done an identify this and just had like a line-up of different elements and got you to pick what they were from sight. That would have been good. Not that podcast friendly, but. No, no. Yeah. Yeah.

Maybe we'll just do it for fun after the show. That could be something that we could use to unwind. Maybe we'll just hang out. Yeah. We'll just text each other pictures of the show. That could be something that we could use to unwind. Maybe we'll just hang out. Yeah. We'll just text each other pictures of elements. A little bit more about metals. Name three heavy metal bands starting with M. Three heavy metal bands starting with M.

All right. Oh, Metallica. Well done. Correct. There must be one called Mastodon Correct, well done, yes Is there? That was a total guess I've never even heard of it

But I just thought that's got to be a bad name That's two, well done, yes Megadeth Yes,'s two well done yes megadeth yes correct well done all right you also three out of three yes you also could have gone with motorhead man o war uh merciful fate and at a stretch i would have taken iron maiden and um and then motley crew not technically heavy metal but i would have taken them too so there we go well done three and so forth all right all right okay that's the last music question in the periodic table uh okay well you're showing great restraint and you're having to breathe of sigh of relief, yes. I slipped that one in.

All right. So I want you to imagine the periodic table, and I'm just interested in how you can do this. How many elements are there across the periodic table at its widest point? All right. And you're using the layout here where the actinides and the lanthanides have been taken out and put below because the actual periodic table is very, very wide.

You know that block down the bottom? That's actually supposed to be inserted. Yeah. Oh, really? Well, inserted where? In like that little gap? Yeah, so basically the periodic table is actually really, really wide and those ones there have been taken out and put down low for, like, layout purposes.

That bar at the bottom actually should be shoved up into the periodic table, and it should be wider. Okay, so that's just terrible design. Why do they belong in there? It's not like they're alphabetical. Like, why do they belong in there? It's to do with the configuration of the electrons in the atom you look at the rows that go down right so the left hand row that starts with hydrogen and

then it's got lithium underneath it and that all the ones in that row have got the same outer electron configuration they're kind of like they're kind of like the same flavor right uh and they've got the same they they interact in flavour. Right. And they've got the same- They interact in similar ways with other elements. They've got the same- They're like similar jigsaw pieces, basically. Similar shaped jigsaw pieces. And so-

And the ones over on the other side, the noble gases that start with helium and go down to, like, you know, neon and all those ones. They've got the same- They're actually very stable. They're like the worst jigsaw pieces because they've got no bumps or lugs or anything. They don't react with anything. So, they all go on that piece. That's like the boring column, isn't it? Yeah, it is. It's good.

They're the noble gases, but they're also- They're inert. Yeah. So, each one in a row has got a very similar flavour to the one above it and below it. So, and there are lots and lots of different flavours. And what gives the atoms their flavour is the way that the electrons are packed around it. And there are lots of different ways to pack the electrons. And when you get down to those transition metals, you start getting some really funky ways to pack the electrons.

So, you're getting all sorts of flavours. So, if you were going to just have all the flavours in a row, it would be really, really wide. They took out those flavours called the lanthanides and the actinides and put them down the bottom. Anyway, I'm assuming you mean the width of the conventional-looking periodic table. Well, that's right.

How many columns are there in the conventional bit? It's a good way to explain it, though, with flavours. I felt like I was in an ice cream store and you were sort of talking about all the flavours under the glass that you could choose from all set out in square rows. I hope I'm not trivialising. How many columns are there? I don't know is one answer.

I don't actually know, but I'm going to guess. I'm trying to not look because there are so many periodic tables. I can see one. Like looking at you, I can see one over your shoulder. I know, I know. But I'm going to guess. I'm trying to not look because there are so many periodic tables. I can see one. Like looking at you, I can see one over your shoulder. I know, I know. But I'm not going to look. It must be about, I don't know, 18. Got it on the nose.

Well done. Is it? Yes. Yes. Well done. Lovely work. That was a bit of a guess. Well done. Well, that is a pretty good guess. Well, you Lovely work. That was a bit of a guess. Well done.

Well, that is a pretty good guess. Well, you've built websites and actually physically put it together. I mean, I should have known. I should have been able to figure it out anyway, but anyway, got lucky. Nice. Nice work. Nice work. All right.

I just want to reassure everyone that we've got adjudicators watching Brady at that end and this end. There's nothing, no funny business going on. It's not like he's got a cheat sheet on the wall behind him or in front of him or anything. I didn't cheat. It was a guess. All right.

All right. So I'm going to ask you another periodic table question. This is question number 12. And I'll give a little bit of a hint because I think this is hard to answer, but I'm going to give, there is another reason why this, there are two reasons why this one may have been chosen. But let me, let me, I hope this isn't stuffed by the, all right. The question is, I've got it down here without knowing before about how you've got that, all those others jammed into that little gulf there. Okay. Name the element seven down and seven across,

counting that gap as one. Okay. All right. Yeah. I think I know. Counting the periodic table as it looks to you, like how it traditionally looks. Yes.

Yeah. Seven down and seven across. I mean, I have no way to get this. This is a bit like playing battleships. That's a ridiculous question. Yes, yes. Yeah. Seven down and seven across. I mean, I have no way to get this. This is a bit like playing battleships. That's a ridiculous question. It's wonderful. You could play battleships with the periodic table. So, if we're going seven down, I think we are going down into the actinides or lanthanides.

How many is seven down? We're starting with hydrogen and lithium. Yeah, I reckon I'm going to go for like Einsteinium. I don't know where that is. What's the number? What are the letters for Einsteinium? Einsteinium I think is like number 100 or 99. Oh, right.

It's down the bottom there. Incorrect. Seven down and seven across is Boreum. Is that how you pronounce it? Yep, yep. Named after Niels Bohr. Right. And I went with Boreum because it's BH for Brady Haran.

That was the other little reason. Okay. So that was a little hint there, but that didn't pay off for you. Oh, you could have told me that. You could have told me there was a little bit of something, something. That might have helped me. Well, I did. I told you.

I did say there was another reason why, but no. Oh, okay. Yep, fail. That brings us to the end of round two, the periodic table round. Yeah. No, I think it's a congratulations. I tell you what, you're lucky you know your heavy metal bands or you'd be really lost with all the science.

That's where I got all my points. Seems like you know more about heavy metal bands than you do about the periodic table. I'd be starting a new video series on heavy metal bands starting with Em if I was you because I think there's some fertile ground here to think. All right. Okay.

Okay, round three. Round three. Round three. We're up to question 13. Round three is called 60 symbols. 60 symbols. First question. How many videos as of today are on the Brady Haran 60 symbols YouTube channel? I mean, there's no way.

Have I got any leeway here? Well, okay, well, maybe within, I'll give you, if you really don't know, I don't know if it's the sort of thing you carry in your head or not, but obviously not. No, no idea. I'll give you 10 each way. Okay. I'm going to go for 210.

Incorrect. By a lot, 389. Oh, gosh. That's a lot. Wow. Gosh. That's not bad. And that's not my biggest channel.

No. Which is your biggest channel? I mean, the most videos, I don't know, maybe Numberphile. I can look it up, but i don't want to uh i could tell i have got a tab on my thing i could open right now and tell you how many are on all of them but but i don't want to ruin any other no no indeed well indeed indeed just in case we touch upon it in the future that's right all right so symbols so so 60 symbols can i ask a question this is not not part of the quiz. This is just, you know, a Tim question.

Why is it called 60 symbols when there's 389 videos? Well, because when we started the channel, we didn't think it was going to go for so long and have so many videos. And the website was laid out with a grid with, I think it was 10 by 6, and it was going to have 60 different symbols on it, and each one you clicked on was a different symbol used in physics. That was going to be the idea of the channel. We moved away from that really quickly,

and now the videos aren't based on symbols at all. So the name still exists, but it has nothing to do with the format now. It's just basic physics videos. But initially it was going to be, you know, this video is C, which is the symbol used for the speed of light. And, you know, this was going to be you know this video is c which is the symbol used for the speed of light and you know this this is going to be that so they're all going to be loosely based on a symbol to tell a physics video and we thought 60 was about how many we'd make and it had a nice alliteration to it it just sounded cool 60 symbols so that was sort of the pitch in the name of this channel not only is the the word the number 60 redundant, but the word symbol is redundant as well.

Is that right? It's now just heaps and heaps of physics stuff. That's cool. Yeah. There you go. Yeah. I should have called it 380 videos about physics and counting. No, the alliteration is not quite as strong, is it?

All right. So this is question number 14. But these questions, because this is the category 60 symbols, these questions are about symbols. All right, so this is question number 14. But these questions, because this is the category 60 symbols, these questions are about symbols, all right? Yep. In which year did Prince change his name to a love symbol? The artist known as Prince changed his name very famously in the 90s to sort of an unpronounceable love symbol.

Yeah. Well, you did say the 90s so thanks for that i thought you would have known that because it was yeah no i would have i know obviously a music question from you is going to be 90s um so i'm just trying to think like were we still at school? Like, I feel like maybe it was after school, after we graduated from high school. So, I'm thinking maybe it was quite late. I keep thinking 1999, but that's because Prince, like, I can't think of him and not think of 1999. But I think it must have been before that.

I'm going to go for 95. 1992. Oh, okay. I guess it's is 93 but actually it was in 1992 so okay yep um have you done a video about the prince's symbol the love symbol on 60 symbols that's not one of them no man no that's not one not one yet. But I'll bear it in mind. Oh, indeed, indeed. I mean, you get symbols like we have done one on the symbol for Venus, which is sort of lovey. So when we did a video about the planet Venus.

What is the symbol for Venus? Is it like a heart or something with an arrow through it? It's the female symbol. It's the circle with like the little cross underneath it. And the symbol for Mars is the male one with the arrow through it? It's the female symbol. It's the circle with, like, the little cross underneath it. And the symbol for Mars is the male one with the arrow. Well, the prince's love symbol is those two, the male and the female combined together, which he famously put into a guitar. All right.

Don't know as much about the lump symbol. A bit unfortunate for the next question, which is what album did he release first with the name Love Symbol? I can't believe these questions. He's one of the biggest artists in the world. Everyone knows this. People at home will be yelling it. They'll be calling it out.

Yelling it at the TV. It's just like, oh, I've got these quiz tailored to your interest, Brady it's like what prince album did he what it's a love symbol um come on you've got 389 videos about symbols yeah and you haven't covered the love symbol uh i don't know the answer to this i'm going to say i'm trying to think of the most pretentious album name i can like like it seems like he wouldn't title it. I can't believe he would give it a title. Like, it seems like something he would just not title it or just call it, like, you know, a colour or something.

I'm going to go untitled. Well, you're close. Hmm. Hmm. It was called. What was it? It was the love symbol. It was the symbol.

So, you're actually, that's, oh, jeez, is that half a mark or is that first? He changed his name to an unpronounceable. That surely gets me half a mark. If he's just using his artist name. Yes, yes. I'm taking half a mark. Very good.

Half out of one. Very good. So he changed his name to Love Symbol in 1992 and then released the album, which was called Love Symbol, or it's not called Love Symbol, it's the Love Symbol. And a whole bunch of our younger viewers are googling prince love symbol at the moment wondering what the heck we're talking about and it will come up i i can assure you they're not listening anymore don't worry it's just you and me now baby well that that is fine

with me okay let's plow on question 16 A bit of a bonus question But What is the What was the name Of the first single And the first song From The Love Symbol

Album By Love Symbol I'm gonna go with Love Symbol No no Think about it I saw this I watched the video

For this for the first time In your lounge room When it was on like video smash hits one Saturday morning. You were in the room. So I know you've heard the song. I literally have memory of you hearing the song. I'm sure it didn't make as big an impression on me as it did on you. Was it I don't know. I'll go with 1999 because I can't think of anything else. Incorrect.

It was called My Name is Prince. Ah, My Name is Prince. And I am funky. See, you know it. There you go. I do know it. It looks fantastic. I'd already written down your cross for that one before you even said it.

Nice. All right. All right. We'll move off questions about symbols. You have not done as well there as you have. Symbols. I think we'll move off questions about prints is what you're saying. But, yeah.

We'll move into a – this is getting a little bit more up your alley. This is a round about the West Wing, the TV show The West Wing, which you've often said is your favourite television programme and I can see the relief. Yeah. You know, can you pour out so nice and so forth? Yeah, it's a great show. And this is a very Brady question in it.

In one episode of The West Wing, there's a space probe. What song? Which hip hop song is Charlie humming as the president walks past? Name eight bands with the word West in their name. Which band played at the inauguration? Now, there's an episode of the West Wing. This is a spacey question as well. So it's a Brady question.

A space probe is released to Mars, heading towards Mars. What is the precise name of the space probe oh i don't know i don't remember um so do you remember the episode no i don't know i don't remember the episode space probe is launched to mars i'm guessing they would have used one of those you know cliched names like you know voyager and stuff that NASA always use, but all the good ones seem to be taken. Can you give me a clue? And I'm already down to half a point for using a clue.

Part of the name is also the name of the episode. All right. Part of the name. That wasn't a very helpful clue because I don't remember the episode. But I would have thought this would be a favourite episode of yours. I don't know. That wasn't a very helpful clue because I don't remember the episode. I would have thought this would be a favourite episode of yours. It's not ringing. What happens in the episode?

Remind me what happens in the episode. So the episode starts off and the president is practising rehearsing for a forum with schoolchildren who are going to ask questions at the launch of the space probe. And he and CJ are rehearsing for that, the questions that are going to come. And then other hijinks ensue and they lose the probe halfway through in the midst of other things happening. But they make a virtue of that failure for the school children. Right.

I don't. I can't remember. So I would go for Mars Explorer or something. No. Galileo. Oh, yes, of course. Yes. Yeah.

I thought you would get the Galileo easily. So, I was tripping you up by saying the actual probe is called Galileo 5. And the episode starts off with the president walking through, doing a walk and talk, going, Galileo 5, Galileo 5. I just love that name. Doesn't it inspire? NASA are great at naming things, you know, all that kind of stuff. Yeah, yeah.

Okay. All right. All right. All right. Question number 18. What does the CJ stand for in CJ Craig, the character on the West Wing? I do know the answer to this. That is Claudia Jane.

Correct. Well done. Where did President Bartlett go to college? He, oh, hang on. I do know this because he's obsessed with their football team. Oh, hang on. I'm having a mental blank. I should know this.

Is it two words? Yes. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's a college of two. It's an Ivy League college of two words. Yeah, it's just I'm just having a mental blank. I do know it. You didn't have a mental blank with mastodon, man.

You came up with it. It was right at the front of your mind. I know, I know. They're a really good football team. Maybe it will help. Okay. I'll give you, I'll move to the second, which is a bit of a bonus question. What was his, and that might help you in it.

What was his, you know, in America they have a major and a minor. What was his minor? Oh, no, I don't remember. He obviously would have majored in economics. He didn't actually. No, I don't. But he went to the London School of Economics later on, but he did a BA and he majored in American Studies.

But the focus of a particular episode was about his minor. Do you remember what the minor was? No, I don't. All right. So his minor was in theology because he was thinking of becoming a priest. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, of becoming a priest. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, of course, yeah. Does that prompt you to get the original for half a mark?

No, I can't believe I can't remember the college. It's such a famous one. And he's so loyal to them all the time. Americans, they wear the merchandise for their college all the time, don't they? They do. That's not an Australian thing at all. What's the first letter? You know, just because I will kick it when you tell me.

N. N for nose. But it's not new, is it? It's, oh, Notre Dame. Yes. Well done. Yeah. Yeah.

Well, not very well done, actually. It was a long time. You got that. Yeah. I needed the letter. Yeah. That is a quarter of a point, that all right a quarter of a point you don't yeah a quarter of a point which might come handy later on you never know because it'd be a shame to lose to some of the

home viewers at um by half by a quarter of a point and so forth all right that is the end of the West Wing round and so forth. Now, this is a question that you asked me and I failed dismally at and I was so embarrassed by it that I wanted to ask you because I want to see how I went in comparison to you. So this is a repeat question from a previous bean dish, from Bean Dish 2. Is this going to be the 12 apostles? Yes. Name the 12 apostles of Jesus.

All right. All right. You'll have to count them for me. I won't. I mean, I won't. I'll be terrible at this. Matthew, Mark, Luke, John. No.

No, you're't. I'll be terrible at this. Matthew, Mark, Luke, John. No, no. No. Some of them have got to be apostles. That's right. Yeah. I mean, Luke's Greek, so he's not an apostle. Okay. Yeah, yeah. No, so he's not. And Mark's not around at the time, too. Mark's just a guy who walked around with one of the others and wrote his stuff down. Is Matthew one? Matthew is. Yes, yes.

Matthew. John? Yes. Oh, that gets me, too. Judas. Well done. Yes, yes. Peter.

Yes. Simon. The other one. Yes. Because it's Simon Peter as well. Yeah. Yep. Well done.

Yeah. Bartholomew. Yes. Isn't there two Judases. Yeah. Yep. Well done. Bartholomew. Yes. Isn't there two Judases? Yeah. Well, hang on. Oh, I don't know, man. Well, you haven't got them written down.

I have got them written down. There are different ones in. Yes, there are. Yes. But to say yes is to give it away. That's all. So I was not wanting to answer the question. Oh, well, no.

I'm just going to say names until you tell me to stop. Oh, right, okay. I don't know. Was there a poll? No, poll comes later. There could be more than one poll. Oh, that's true. Well, no, fair enough, true.

Okay, fair enough. I'm just throwing out biblical names, man. I'm not thinking of who poll is. I've got no clue who poll is. Yeah. You're like, no, how dare you? He comes later. I don't care. I don't know.

It's like I've said, name the characters in the Millennium Falcon, you know, and you've gone Jar Jar Binks. And it's like, no, you idiot. He comes earlier, actually, technically, doesn't he? So you've got one, two, three, four, five, six, which is, I think, better than I did or about the same as I did. Was there a Tim or Timothy in there? No, not in there.

Was there an aubergine? No, no. No. Timothy also is Greek and comes later. He was quite young. I don't care, Tim. I don't care. It doesn't matter that they're Greek.

You cared about mastodon. How did you care about mastodon? All right. There's a couple of other low-hanging fruit, easy ones. Oh, Thomas. Hommus? No, man. That's what you have as a dip.

Oh, Thomas. No. No. Yes, Thomas. Yeah, doubting Thomas. Homus? No, man, that's what you have as a dip. Oh, Thomas. No. Yes, Thomas. Yeah, doubting Thomas. Yes. Correct. The sceptic of the group. Yes.

I hope you're not looking at a poster on your wall of the man like you were with the periodic table. No, all my posters are of Greek people who came later. Very good, yes. Is there more low-hanging fruit? Yep. Well, yeah. I mean, yeah. Well, they feel obvious because I'm looking at them.

Chewbacca wasn't mine, was it? No, he came later. Right. He's in the Old Testament, man. Nah. What have I got? the Old Testament, man. Nah. What have I got? I had seven? That's pretty good.

I think that's seven. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Yeah, no, that's pretty good. That's pretty good. Well done. There's also Thaddeus. He's always forgotten Thaddeus. Oh, yeah, Thaddeus.

Yeah. I wouldn't have got. I remember that was when you didn't get. Yeah, the Thad man. That's right. And then there's Philip and James and James and Andrew. So there you go. All right.

Not bad. Not bad. All right. Pretty good. All right. Well, better than me, I'd have to say. I'm in no position to judge this and so forth. All right.

Has this been going as long as I think? Yes, it has. Okay. All right. Move on to name Greek followers of Jesus who came later. Hang on, hang on. I feel like we've done that. I've done all of them.

All right. That's my specialist subject. I know. I know. We're moving back on to a musical round. And I wanted to, but with a difference. This is a bit different. I know that you say when I play in the studio here,

you can't hear the guitar for some reason, which we need to mic it up or do something. So we're moving, I'm doing something a bit different. We're moving to a round called Name This Riff. And because I don't have a guitar, I'm just going to, like, na-na-na the riffs, okay? And I want you to tell me. I don't know what it's called.

Na-na-na the riffs. But I want to see how many. Name this riff, all right? All right. All right. So, question 21. I know that one. That's Smoke on the Water.

Correct. Well done. I tell you, you've done very well in the heavy metal sort of area tonight. I tell you what, very surprisingly. All right. Question 22. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Do you want me to keep going?

Can you remind me what the band is? I know it. I know it, but can you remind me what the band is? It might help me get the name. All right. The White Stripes. Oh, yeah. It's Seven Nation Army or whatever it is.

Correct. Correct. Well done. Yes. Yes. Well done. Good. Hang on. I'm just going to have a Yes. Well done. Good. Hang on.

I'm just going to have a glass of water here before I continue my guitar. Just to lubricate those na-nas. People are finally going, finally some decent guitar playing on this podcast. I definitely got more chance of getting it than if you were playing it on a guitar. That's right. All right, here we go. All right. All right.

All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right.

All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right.

All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. No. No. Fail. No. No.

That's Into Sandman by Metallica. I would have thought you'd know that one. That's one of the most famous rock songs of all time. I certainly didn't recognise your rendition. I don't know. No, it's fine. All right, well, let's see how we go. Number 24.

All right, here we go. Down and out. Down and out. Down and out. Down and out. Down and out. Down and out. Down and out.

Down and out. Down and out. Down and out. Down and out. Down and out. Down and out. Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, Is it smells like teen spirit? Correct. Yes. Well done. Very good. All right. Nice work. This is great.

You're doing very well. Question number 25. This is ridiculous. Question. How many of these are there? This is the last one in name that riff, which you're doing very well in. I think you're doing better than any of the other rounds so far. You're doing quite well. It's my strongest round.

All right. Here we go. Number 25. Oh, wow. I've not heard it so in tune from you before, but I believe that's Money for Nothing. Well done. That's correct. I finally learned it.

That's great. I just wanted to surprise you. I was sure you were going to give me, I was sure you were going to give me, dun-na-na, dun-na-na, ch-ch. Oh, yeah. Dun-na-na, dun-na-na. That's great.

Look it up, people, if you don't know that one. All right, here we go. So, let's move on. We've got two more rounds. Okay, so we're on the back straight now. Doing really, really well. Back straight. Here we go.

All right. This category is called, this round is called objectivity. Objectivity. Okay. All right. And it starts with a who am I? Ooh. I know.

So it's objectivity. Who am I? I'm typically a watertight vertical cylinder or truncated cone or square with an open top and a flat bottom attached to a semicircular carrying handle called the bail. I appear in popular culture in phrases including drop the, kick the, and a desired list of achievements before death is known as a... You're a bucket. Correct. Well done.

Very good. One out of one. All right. Question number Correct. Well done. Very good. One out of one. All right. Question number 27. All right. How many pieces of KFC chicken are placed in a bucket? Oh, oh, I don't know, but I'm going to guess, I'm going to guess 12. Incorrect.

You need to move those numbers around. 21. No way. That's why they're so awesome. That's amazing, isn't it? Yeah. That is incredible. Very good.

Name the five different types of KFC pieces. Now, I don't mean flavourings. I mean parts of the chicken. Oh, God. Well, the drumstick. Correct. Drumstick. The thigh. Correct. The wing.

Correct. I didn't know there were two others. You've never stopped to look, do you, man? You just throw them down? No. Just gobble them up? I'm trying to think what other parts of a chicken there are that you'd eat. The beak.

The neck. The head. What other pieces of a chicken are there? A wing? A thigh? Oh, the breast? Correct. Yes.

Thigh, wing, drumstick. What other parts of a chicken have a back? A back? I'm just thinking of like a chicken structure. Now I can't think of what the other one is. What's the other one? The ribs. You get a rib, a drumstick.

Yeah, they're rubbish, the ribs. And a breath. I know, I know, yeah. You've got to pick out the bits and pieces and that sort of stuff. So, very good. So, four out of five there. Very good. All right.

Yeah. This is not the greatest question. I mean, you sort of, you know, any seasoned KFC lover will just sort of have this in their back pocket but we'll just do it quickly so forth how many kfc outlets are there in the whole world wow you're gonna give me some margin here hopefully uh one either way well this is this is only a round thing because there's like one opening up every day you know that kind of thing so i'll give you within i'll give you within um i'll give you a 5 000 outlet leeway oh wow wow that's already like all right well let's go through it we've got traralgon it's got mal, got Adelaide City Centre.

We have to count the right ones as well. All right, I'm going to go. It would be fun to count up which how many we've been to. That would be interesting. You could kind of track it a little bit. I don't even know what ballpark to put it in. Now that you've said my leeway is 5,000, it's clearly much higher than I thought.

I'm going to go, let's say like, let's say 100 countries have KFC and each one has, I'm going to go 60,000. Oh, that's a little bit high. I mean, that's the vision, obviously, but the answer is 25,000. Oh, that's a little bit high. I mean, that's the vision, obviously, but the answer is 25,000. Oh, okay. 25,000. So that's incorrect. All right.

Yeah. Big fat fail. All right. We come now to the last round, right? And the last round. How many KFC outlets was an objectivity question, just for the record? Well, because the object was the bucket, and then the objects were the objects in the bucket. And then I just thought of that one too and I thought I'd check it out.

That's what I thought. It was just a quick one. I just thought you'd have that at hand. But anyway. It's all good. You're the quiz master. No, indeed. Indeed.

I am. That's right. That's right. Correct. I am the quiz master. Here we go. We come to the final round. The final round is called Brady Stuff.

Brady Stuff. So, here we go. Okay. This is going to be a little bit more difficult for those playing at home. What did, question number 30. What did your sister want to call the family cat, but you vetoed it? All right. So, I didn't veto it. I just kind of manipulated her into not using the name

she wanted to call it that's worse than vetoing yeah she wanted to call it fluffy but we ended up calling him scuffy nice and i basically told her if she called it fluffy i would nevertheless call it scuffy and it would cause mental distress for the cat because it was being called two different names. She was so worried about causing the cat mental distress that she went with my name. Do you know the funny thing about that is that my, when we first got Spindles, all I wanted to call him Fluffy

and my dad said, no, we're calling him Spindles. You like the storybook spindles and dad got really angry and yelled at me his name's spindles and i was like i want to call him fluffy anyway yeah question 31 what color were the letters that were mysteriously written on your Grandmother's wall. In crayon. Yes. Yes. My initials of BH were scrawled onto my grandmother's toilet wall in a silver crayon, which was my favourite crayon, my silver Crayola crayon. Wow.

Silver crayon. Sounds cool. I mean, you're asking me questions that are like burned into my soul and being. You're asking me questions that are impossible for me to get wrong. You may as well ask me what my name is. Okay. 32. What was the name of your primary school headmaster? Oh, I was just talking about him the other day.

My primary school headmaster was Mr. John Partington. Oh, we've got an interesting clash here. Partington, you reckon? See, I have Paddington, but that might be. No? No. You've been misinformed by a source who is probably less reliable with spelling

and pronunciation. Hang on, we're going upstairs just to check. I'm sure it was Mr Partington. No, he's being, no, he does pronounce it Partington, so well done. Yes, no, that's correct. We'll give you that one. I had my hands slapped with a ruler many times by Mr. Partington.

Oh, oh. Question number 33. Yeah. What animal was the symbol of the Harren family crest that hung in the pool room? Oh, that's interesting. I'm going to go with, I'm assuming my sister has been a source here, and I see lots of potential for mistakes. But I'm going to go with lions.

Correct. All right. Three lions, which is a. Yes, it was three lions. There was also my mother's side of the family crest was on the same, like, shield. And that was three crescent moons. But the way the crescent moons were configured, it looked like the face of a friendly bear. Like two eyes and a nose.

And I saw the potential for my sister's memory to somehow take her down a route of thinking it was a bear there. But, no, it was three lines in in there is in the brackets a um like i've been informed by my producer um allow eagle was there an eagle involved somehow somewhere yeah i think there was an eagle at the top and you know holding some arrows or something like there always is at the top of those crests all right that was big i remember a lot of people had those sort of family crests in their home. Yeah, heraldry and stuff, yeah. Yeah. All right, we come to the final question.

What did your sister inherit from your grandpa, Ron? Oh, that's interesting. What did she? Not to everyone else it's not, but to you it is. It's not interesting at all, is it? When my grandpa Ron passed away, my sister and I were very young and we were taken to his home and we were allowed to, like, you know, choose any trinket from his belongings, you know, in his office and stuff

as a keepsake, you know. I chose aet from his belongings you know in his office and stuff to as a keepsake you know i chose a little leather bound diary i think it was a 1982 diary like because i just thought it was a cool piece of stationery i remember i took that i can't remember what my sister chose as her as her item. It's not coming to me, so I might need to take a clue maybe to help nudge me. There are two objects. Okay. Were they statues? Were they some kind of tacky statues or something?

Like something like that? I feel bad. You've thrown the word tacky in there, which might be a problematic thing for you to say. Like were they statues of ladies or something? Or, you know, they were like something like that? That's pretty good. Statue of a doctor and statue of a clown. Oh, okay. Right. Yeah. I do have a vague record. It doesn't say they were tacky though. No. No. Okay. What do I get? Do I get half a point for that?

Not like anyone else is going to get points for that. You can get a quarter for that one. So with the other quarter, that makes another half a mark. So there we go. All right. I know. Well, there's one home viewer who I know will be very excited and will be measuring itself against you in that.

All right. That is the end of Bean Dish 3. Now, I have to do some adding up here to find out what the total is out of. Okay, I can tell you what my score was. Did I get 27? I think I make it out of 46. I reckon I got 34 points. 2, 33, 34, 35.

Okay, it's out of 47, because where I've said it's a bonus question, it's a bonus. I don't think it really matters what it's out of anyway. It's just, can you beat the benchmark of others? 14 and a half. I thought I got 34. For the West Wing, what was it? One and a... Oh, I totally skipped the Disciples.

Yep, yep, yep Disciples Yep yep yep Totally Yep yep Totally I missed that too So what did I get? How have I done? You get 34 as well

Man I've added them up And I tell you Look it's pretty It's pretty good It's a pretty good score in the end But I tell you what You were saved by your knowledge of heavy metal And riffs Because Some of the more science-based questions,

number questions, periodic table questions were a bit dodgy. 34 out of, I think I've got it out of 47. So 34. Okay. That's not bad. So that's the benchmark, people. Hopefully this is going to drive a bit of traffic to my YouTube channels as well. So thanks, Tim. You know, people are going to want to go and learn more about physics, astronomy, numbers, heavy metal and the 12 apostles. Indeed. You'll be up all night tonight getting that mastodon clip up, won't you?

It's really satisfied people. That's 73%. You know, I reckon that's around about what I got for year 12. So I think you're actually not doing too bad in the tin-shaped questions and so forth. Well done. Go on to Reddit and stuff and let us know how you did, people. We're very curious.

Any questions that you liked or didn't like? Anything you disagree with? By the way, Tim, in keeping with the reverse nature of this episode, I was given two secret words by my wife. Oh, wow. And did you manage to get them in there? They have been successfully smuggled, both of them. Oh, geez, you're smooth.

Well done. That's great. Oh, well done. Thanks. That's fantastic. Luckily, one of them was mastodon who would have thought no wonder it was front of mind you're like yes no that wasn't one of them but they are in the episode so there you go I'll do another version, a version more familiar to people than the one I played before, which is... Can you recognise that, man? Yeah, now I recognise it.
