We're able to admin everything on the back end, front end, and sell things online easily. If Shopify were a bike accessory, I think it would actually be the bicycle.

They are circles. He has an arch-shaped door and two round circles on the pineapple. Question 2. Which Paw Patrol pup is the clumsiest?

00:11:13 - 00:11:14 | Speaker 2:

Marshall.

00:11:14 - 00:11:24 | Speaker 1:

Marshall is right. He is well known for his silly antics, often causing a humorous pileup or tumbling over the other pups when they rush to the lookout's elevator.

00:11:25 - 00:11:26 | Speaker 2:

One of my favorite guys is Marshall.

00:11:27 - 00:11:34 | Speaker 1:

I like that he doesn't take himself too seriously. And when he does something clumsy, he's like, oh, well, I'll try not to do that next time.

00:11:34 - 00:11:35 | Speaker 2:

And then he doesn't.

00:11:35 - 00:11:59 | Speaker 1:

Yes. Question three. In Peppa Pig, what does George always say he loves? Dinosaurs. Grr. Dinosaurs is right. George is so cute. Question four. The kids in the Loud House's names all start with what letter? L. L is right. There are ten kids. How many can you name?

00:12:06 - 00:12:12 | Speaker 2:

There's Lincoln, Lisa, Lori, Lenny. There's way more.

00:12:12 - 00:12:32 | Speaker 1:

They are Lori, Lenny, Luna, Luann, Lynn, Lincoln, Lucy, Lana, Lola, Lisa, and Lily. That's a lot of L's. I would have a hard time coming up with any more names. Question five. Which teen titan can turn into animals? Beast Boy, Starfire, or Raven?

00:12:33 - 00:12:33 | Speaker 2:

Beast Boy.

00:12:33 - 00:12:40 | Speaker 1:

That is correct. Beast Boy can transform into all kinds of animals. Is he the cyborg kind of one?

00:12:40 - 00:12:44 | Speaker 2:

or which one's Beast Boy? No, Cyborg to name is Cyborg. Oh, which one's Beast Boy? Beast Boy is

00:12:44 - 00:15:40 | Speaker 1:

the small green one. He normally wears like a black jumpsuit. Oh, yes. He looks like a goblin kind of. Yeah. Question six. What city does Miraculous Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir take place in London, Paris, or New York? London? The answer is Paris. The show is set in Paris with many scenes near the Eiffel Tower. Question seven. Why do Mabel and Dipper call Stan Grunkle? Because he's their great uncle. That is correct. So he is either their mom's or their dad's uncle, making him their great uncle, so they call him Grunkle. Parent challenge. what city does Garfield ship Nermal to? What? I don't know. The answer is Abu Dhabi. So Garfield was a cartoon when I was a kid and Nermal was this adorable little gray kitten that used to come visit their house sometimes. And Garfield couldn't stand Nermal because she was so cute and she got a ton of attention. So Garfield would ship her to Abu Dhabi, which is in the United Arab Emirates, and just like ship her away. I know, right? Interesting. Round two, the category is summer. Thank you to Kids Discover for sponsoring our kickoff to summer round.

What do we call the light shoes many people wear in summer that go between your toes? Question 2. What is a popular summer activity where you sleep outside in a tent? Question 3. What do we call the invisible water in the air that can make summer feel sticky?

00:15:46 - 00:17:35 | Speaker 1:

Question 4. What do we call a very hot period during summer that lasts several days? Question 5. What do we call the special glasses you wear underwater to see clearly while swimming? Question 6. What are the typical three ingredients in a s'more? Question 7. What is the title of the person whose job it is to make sure swimmers are safe at the pool? Parent Challenge Why are days longer in summer than in winter? round two answers question one what do we call the light shoes many people wear in the summer that go in between your toes slip-flops yep flip-flops my favorite thing to wear flip-flops are easy to slip on and help to keep your feet cool but they don't protect your toes very much when i was a kid we called them songs oh my word isn't that what they call in australia too Maybe. Question two. What is a popular summer activity where you sleep outside in a tent? Camping. Camping is right. Camping lets people enjoy nature, campfires, and starry skies.

00:17:35 - 00:17:47 | Speaker 2:

You guys camped this year in a tent? We got like no sleep because it was cold and yeah, I was freezing and then it was just cramped in there. Question three. What do you call the

00:17:47 - 00:18:47 | Speaker 1:

invisible water in the air that can make summer feel sticky? I want to say humidity, but that sounds like the wrong answer. That is the right answer. Humidity is how much water vapor is in the air. High humidity makes it feel hotter and stickier. I do not like humidity. Neither does my hair. It stands up everywhere. There's not a ton of humidity in Iowa, which is very nice, but the further south you get in the U.S., oh man, summers are humid. Question four, what do we call a very hot period during summer that lasts several days? Summer solstice? Talk about a heat wave! Oh, what is summer solstice? The first day of summer. What am I talking about? A heat wave is when temperatures stay much hotter than normal for a few days or more. We just had a heat wave for a couple days. It was so hot. It was like a furnace. Yeah, the pool was so busy. It was, but that was the only place you could be outside without roasting.

00:18:48 - 00:18:48 | Speaker 2:

Yeah.

00:18:49 - 00:19:44 | Speaker 1:

Question five. What do we call the special glasses you wear underwater to see clearly while swimming? Goggles. Goggles is correct. Goggles keep water out of your eyes so you can see underwater. Question six. What are the typical three ingredients in a s'more? Graham cracker, chocolate, marshmallow. The best combination of three items you could have. That is correct. I know some people replace just plain chocolate with either like a Reese's peanut butter cup or a Hershey's caramel or like a feastable caramel. I think the original though can't be beat. Question seven. What is the title of the person whose job it is to make sure swimmers are safe at the pool? A lifeguard. Alivegard is correct. Parent challenge. Why are days longer in the summer than in the winter?

00:19:45 - 00:19:52 | Speaker 2:

Because the earth tilts, and that's just how it works, and I'm not really sure the science. I'm sorry to all my science teachers who are trying to teach.

00:19:52 - 00:22:51 | Speaker 1:

You are right. It is because of the earth's tilt. Earth is tilted. So in summer, you're part of the earth. faces the sun more, giving more daylight hours. I remember that now. Round three, the category is candy. Question one. What candy was first made by stretching sugar on a hook to trap tiny air bubbles? Licorice, taffy, or Tootsie Rolls. Question 2. What candy was originally called fairy floss? Question 3. True or false? Smarties in the United States and the United Kingdom them are the same candy. Question 4. Which candy's slogan is, there's no wrong way to eat a what? In 2017, a cocoa company introduced a fourth type of chocolate, alongside dark, milk, and white, called what, that is made with a specific type of cocoa bean and is known for its pink color? Ruby chocolate, scarlet chocolate, or crimson chocolate? Question 6. Which Hershey chocolate bar with a blue and white wrapper is filled with coconut and has a single nut on the top? Question 7. True or false. There is a city in the United States called Hershey, Pennsylvania. Parent Challenge What candy is made by heating sugar until it turns brown and tastes buttery? Answers to the third round, Ren's favorite thing in the world. Candy! Question 1. What candy was first made by stretching sugar on a hook to trap tiny air bubbles? Licorice, taffy, or Tootsie Rolls? Licorice? The answer is taffy. Pulling taffy adds air, making it soft and chewy.

00:22:52 - 00:25:46 | Speaker 1:

And delicious. And delicious. What's your favorite kind? Of taffy? Banana Laffy Taffy. Me too, definitely. Love them. Question two. What candy was originally called fairy floss? Cotton candy? The cotton variety is correct. Cotton candy was invented by a dentist. in 1897. I love cotton candy. It's so good. Question three, true or false? Smarties in the United States and the United Kingdom are the same candy. False. It's false. In the United Kingdom, Smarties are small milk chocolate drops covered in a hard crunchy candy shell, almost similar to M&M's. In the United States, Smarties are tart, sugary, chalky, disc-shaped tablets wrapped in a roll. If you are looking for the U.S. version of Smarties in the U.K. or Canada, they are sold under the name Rockets. Conversely, if you're looking for the chocolate U.K. Smarties in the U.S., you won't find them here, but they're highly comparable to M&M's. Interesting. Question four. Which candy's slogan is, there's no wrong way to eat a what? I have no clue. There's no wrong way to eat a Reese's. Oh. Question five. In 2017, a cocoa company introduced a fourth type of chocolate alongside dark milk and white called what? That is made with a specific type of cocoa bean and is known for its pink color? Ruby chocolate, scarlet chocolate, or crimson chocolate? Crimson chocolate. The answer is ruby chocolate. Ruby chocolate is made from naturally occurring ruby cocoa beans. Found in regions like the Ivory Coast, Ecuador, and Brazil, the beans are processed to unlock their natural pink color and a distinct fruity berry-like flavor profile without the addition of any artificial colorings or berry flavors. That's cool. That is cool and it is pink. It's sort of like a mauve color. The only reason I've heard about ruby chocolate is because I really like to watch baking shows and sometimes they make things with ruby chocolate. That's the first time I'd heard of it. Question six. Which Hershey bar with a blue and white wrapper is filled with coconut and has a single nut on the top? Almond Joy? Almond Joy is the answer. What is the non-nut version of the Almond Joy? Almond Sad. That might be the best answer. I've ever heard Almond Sad. Oh man. No,

00:25:46 - 00:28:44 | Speaker 1:

they are called Mounds. So Mounds are like Almond Joy's brother, except just coconut covered in dark chocolate. No nut. And Almond Joy is coconut, almond, and milk chocolate. Question 7. True or false? There is a city in the United States called Hershey, Pennsylvania. True? Yes, it is true, but that's not what the chocolate is named after. Founder Milton S. Hershey named the company after himself. He built a massive chocolate factory in his rural Pennsylvania birthplace, and the community that grew up around it was eventually renamed Hershey in honor of the company and its founder. So the chocolate came first before the town. The town was named after the guy and the chocolate. Oh, oh, that makes sense. I thought the chocolate was named after the town that it was made in, but it's the other way around. Parent challenge. What candy is made by heating sugar until it turns brown and tastes buttery? Yeah. Butterscotch? The answer is caramel. This process is called caramelization. Some people call it caramel. I call it caramel. Caramelization. Yeah, right. Caramelization. But there is a candy bar called Caramello, but I don't say... Caramello? Yeah, Caramello, Anthony, who used to play for the Knicks. Round 4. The category is Mexico. Question 1. What famous Mexican food was first made by the Aztecs using cacao and chilies? Salsa, mole, or rancheros? Question 2. What Mexican state shares its name with a tiny dog breed? Question 3. What are prickly pear cactus pads called in Mexico? Nopales, Cuevos, or Picos? Question 4. What animal is sitting on a cactus on the Mexican flag? A vulture, an eagle, or a hawk? Question 5. What famous Mexican painter painted many self-portraits, often over-exaggerating the unibrow, and owned many exotic pets?

00:28:44 - 00:31:22 | Speaker 1:

Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, or Jose Orozco? Question 6. What Mexican city shares its name with a Disney princess? Merida, Tiana, or Aurora? Question 7. What is Mexico's most popular beach vacation spot? Cancun, Tijuana, or Mexico City? Parent Challenge What Mexican federal highway runs all the way from Laredo, Texas, to Mexico City? Answers to the fourth round Question 1 What famous Mexican food was first made by the Aztecs? Using cacao and chilies. Salsa, mole, or rancheros. I'm just going to say salsa because that's the only one of the three that I know. The answer is mole. Mole is generally slightly sweet, but not like a dessert-like sweetness. Authentic mole is a deeply complex, savory sauce that balances sweet elements like chocolate, fruits, or sugar with earthy, smoky, and spicy flavors from various dried chilies, nuts, and spices. It is a super old recipe that has tons of different variations. Question 2. What Mexican state shares its name with a tiny dog breed? Chihuahua. Chihuahua is correct. The Chihuahua dog is named after the state of Chihuahua. Question three. What are prickly pear cactus pads called in Mexico? Nopales, huevos, or picos? I know it's not huevos because that's eggs. Um, picos. They are nopales. Nopales are cactus pads that you can actually eat. They're used in tacos, soups, and even scrambled eggs or huevos. Question 4. What animal is sitting on a cactus on the Mexican flag? A vulture, an eagle, or a hawk?

00:31:22 - 00:31:31 | Speaker 2:

I thought it was going to be like dog, cat, or bird, and I was just going to say bird. I don't know what kind of bird. I feel like an eagle is very American, so I'm just going to say

00:31:31 - 00:33:03 | Speaker 1:

hawk. It's an eagle. Oh, great. An eagle on a cactus with a serpent in its beak. The image is from an Aztec legend which claims that it was prophesied that where they found a real-life version of this picture, they would build their new home. The Aztecs eventually found it and they built their home where the eagle stood as prophesied, which is now where Mexico City stands. That's so interesting. I did not know that. That's awesome. Question five. What famous Mexican painter, painted many self-portraits, often over-exaggerating the unibrow, and owned many exotic pets. Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, or Jose Orozco? Frida Kahlo. That is right. Frida had monkeys, parrots, and even a deer, and she painted herself with her bold unibrow on purpose. I thought she just painted the animals. I didn't realize she had them. I agree. I didn't realize they were kind of like pets. Question six. What Mexican city shares its name with a Disney princess? Merida, Tiana, or Aurora? I'm gonna say Tiana. No, I'm gonna say Aurora. Well, the answer is Merida. No! Question seven. What is Mexico's most popular beach vacation spot? Cancun, Tijuana, or Mexico City?

00:33:03 - 00:33:08 | Speaker 2:

I could go for a Cancun right now, so I'm going to say that. The answer is Cancun.

00:33:08 - 00:36:07 | Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, yeah! Cancun is famous for turquoise water, giant resorts, and beaches that look like postcards. Parent challenge! What Mexican federal highway runs all the way from Laredo, Texas to Mexico City? Highway 67. The answer is Federal Highway 85. 5. It is one of Mexico's major north-south highways, a straight shot from the U.S. border to the capital. Round number 5. The category is sports. Question 1. True or false? In some soccer leagues, you can get a blue card. Question 2. What sport has a championship trophy called the Ashes, and it's only a few inches tall? Cricket, rugby, or high-lie? Question 3. In hockey, what happens to the puck before the game so that it slides on the ice better? It gets covered in lubricant, it gets frozen, or it is wetted down? Question 4. What sport allows players to run behind the goal and still be in play? Lacrosse, field hockey, or netball? Question 5. Marco would know that what sport... uses horses and long-handled mallets to hit a ball? Question 6. What Japanese sport involves two large athletes trying to push each other out of a ring? Question 7. What sport has a rule called double fault, where if you miss two serves, the other player gets a point? Volleyball, badminton, or tennis? Parent Challenge What Scottish sport involves tossing a giant log end over end? And now the answers to round five. Round five. Question one, true or false?

00:36:08 - 00:39:08 | Speaker 1:

In some soccer leagues, you can get a blue card. True. It is true. Yes, there is a blue card in soccer, though its use is specific to certain leagues or formats. It primarily serves as a temporary suspension or penalty for misconduct. In some leagues, a referee issues a blue card to send a player to a sin bin for a temporary period, usually 10 minutes for outdoor or two minutes for indoor. The player must sit out, leaving their team shorthanded. So a blue card is like a power play in hockey. When you get a yellow card in soccer, the player still gets to play, unless they get a red card, and then they're automatically out. But some leagues have what's called a blue card, and it's just sort of like you have to go sit out for a little bit, your team is shorthanded because of it, and then you get to come back. That's kind of cool. I kind of love that. Question two. What sport has a championship trophy called the Ashes, and it's only a few inches tall? Cricket, rugby, or hyaline? Hyaline. The answer is cricket. The Ashes is a biennial cricket series played approximately every two years, alternating its host country between England and Australia. Its ultimate prize is a tiny 10.5 centimeter or four inches terracotta urn believed to contain the ashes of a cricket ball. It is one of the most famous trophies in sports. I'm going to show you a picture of the ashes trophy and you tell me what you think. Okay. Wow, that is tiny. It's only a couple inches long. It is no bigger than like a chicken drumstick. Wouldn't you say? Is that about the size of it? Yeah. Isn't that funny? Yeah. Question three. In hockey, what happens to the puck before the game so that it slides on the ice better? It gets covered in lubricant, it gets frozen, or it is wetted down? It is wetted down. The answer is it gets frozen. A frozen puck bounces less and glides faster on the ice. Question four. What sport allows players to run behind the goal and still be in play? Lacrosse, field hockey, or netball? Netball. The answer is lacrosse. The goal in lacrosse sits forward so players can run around it. Unlike sports with rigid back boundaries at the goal line, a regulation lacrosse field extends beyond the goal. Players frequently run, set picks, and shoot from behind the X, which is the area directly behind the goal. Can you think of another game where players could run behind the goal in

00:39:08 - 00:39:58 | Speaker 1:

order to still be in play? Hockey. That's another one, yep. But think about soccer. You can't play behind the goal in soccer. That's a closed area. That's out of bounds. But in lacrosse and ice hockey, you can run right around it. Question five. Marco would know that what sport uses horses and a long-handled mallet to hit a ball? Polo. Polo is correct. Marco! Polo. Polo is one of the oldest team sports in the world. And you play it on top of a horse and you have a long mallet and you hit a ball on a horse and you try to hit it into the goal. Question six. What Japanese sport involves two large athletes trying to push each other out of a ring?

00:40:00 - 00:40:21 | Speaker 2:

Sumo wrestling is the answer. Sumo wrestlers can weigh over 300 pounds. Question seven. What sport has a rule called a double fault, where if you miss two serves, the other player gets a point? Volleyball, badminton, or tennis?

00:40:21 - 00:40:22 | Speaker 8:

Volleyball.

00:40:22 - 00:42:05 | Speaker 2:

The answer is tennis. If the serve misses, it's called a fault, which is either if you hit the net or if it lands out of bounds. The player gets to try the serve again. If they miss this attempt as well, it's called a double fault. As a penalty for missing both tries, the server automatically loses the point and the other player gets the point. In volleyball, if you miss the serve, it's just the other team's ball. You don't get another chance, but in tennis you do. Parent Challenge! What Scottish sport involves tossing a giant log end over end? Bucket log. This is called the caber toss. The goal of the caber toss is to flip a large, tapered wood pole, or the caber, so that it lands perfectly straight in line with the thrower, pointing directly away from them. Distance is not a factor. Precision and technique are the ultimate objectives. Have you seen this before? It's usually at the Scottish games where contestants will wear kilts. And it's like they take a telephone pole and they hold it between their legs with their two hands. And they run and they throw it forward and they try to make it flip a big pole. Flip end over end. And the goal is to make it be pointing straight away from them and not be turned at all. Have you seen this before? No. So I have seen Caber Toss. I thought the goal was to throw it as far as you could, which was why I thought the stronger you are, the better. Because you could throw the pole farther. But really, it's a matter of throwing it straightest. I learned something new.
