This is Trivia for Kids, where it's not just for adults anymore.

00:03:12 - 00:03:58 | Speaker 4:

Heidi-ho there, neighbors. Hey there, everybody. Welcome to this week's episode of Trivia for Kids, the podcast. I'm Quinn. And I'm Casey, and we are flipping this week's trivia on its head. Why is that, Quinn? I wrote all the questions and answers. And I am going to answer them. We flipped it, so I don't know anything about what the questions are. Quinn wrote them all, and I finally get to be the one who answers them. I'm so pumped. Me too. I write every episode. I write all the questions. And it's really fun to see what you guys know and have you answer them. And I love trivia so much. Even though I do a lot of trivia, I love to play trivia. So I am really, really excited about this week, Quinn. So thank you for writing the questions.

00:03:59 - 00:03:59 | Speaker 5:

Yes, ma'am.

00:03:59 - 00:04:00 | Speaker 4:

What did you think about writing trivia?

00:04:01 - 00:04:04 | Speaker 5:

It was hard, but I liked it when I came across a question I like.

00:04:04 - 00:04:31 | Speaker 4:

Right. That you'd never heard before. Yeah. But here's the thing. So we recorded this kind of backwards and you're going to hear me normally go round one the category is and me reading the question this is only after we've already recorded the answers rounds so I promise you I don't know the questions I'm not cheating we're just this is completely after we've answered all the questions right Quinn is just microphoned out at this point and oh I'll do the categories it's fine but I'm

00:04:31 - 00:04:54 | Speaker 5:

not cheating I promise but we have some jokes we do our first joke comes from Maddie and Malia McKinley in Columbus, Ohio. Thank you, Maddie and Malia. Why did the cat cross the road? No idea. Because the chicken quit. I'm out. I'm done. Find another animal. That's going to be

00:04:54 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 4:

me after all this. That's what he said. I'm out. See y'all.

00:05:00 - 00:05:08 | Speaker 3:

And our second joke comes from Mila. She is six years old and she's from San Diego. Thank you, Mila. What is a mermaid's favorite gymnastics move?

00:05:10 - 00:05:10 | Speaker 4:

I don't know.

00:05:10 - 00:05:17 | Speaker 3:

An aerial. Aerials are so cool. I wish I could do one of those. That's a great joke.

00:05:17 - 00:05:24 | Speaker 4:

Aerial is the name of the little mermaid and a gymnastics trick, which is a cartwheel with no hands. That's hilarious.

00:05:25 - 00:05:39 | Speaker 3:

And now it's time for the Sussed Conversation Starter. If you could control all of the elements, Mom, what would you most enjoy controlling? Water, earth, or fire? Stick around to the end to find out Casey's answer.

00:05:39 - 00:05:50 | Speaker 4:

I have to think about that one. That one's a real toughie. All right, Quinn, I cannot wait. Let's get going with some trivia where I get to answer the questions.

00:05:50 - 00:06:20 | Speaker 1:

Yay! Here's how the show works. Trivia for Kids consists of five rounds with seven questions each. We will announce the answers at the end of each round. Each new round will have a different category. After the fifth round, we will have the final exam, which will test you on the toughest questions we have covered in the previous rounds. Everyone ready? Let's get started!

00:06:20 - 00:07:59 | Speaker 4:

Round one, the category is Moana. Question one, what is the name of the coconut armored pirates that attack Moana and Maui on the ocean? Question two, where does Moana's father forbid her from going? Question 3. What is the island called that Moana lives on? Question 4. What is the color of Moana's shell necklace? Question 5. What is Maui the demigod of? Fire and Earth, Waves and Ocean, or Wind and Sea? Question 6. What spirit animal does Moana's grandmother turn into? Question 7. What is Maui's nickname for Heihei? Parrot challenge. What other Disney movie character does Maui shapeshift into?

00:08:05 - 00:08:18 | Speaker 3:

And now the round one answers. Question one. What is the name of the coconut armored pirates that attack Moana in Maui on the ocean? I know this. Um, not Tamatoa.

00:08:18 - 00:08:21 | Speaker 4:

They are the Kakamora.

00:08:21 - 00:08:25 | Speaker 3:

There you go. Oh, man, that took me a while. Dug to the back of your brain. I did.

00:08:25 - 00:08:29 | Speaker 4:

I have like a Rolodex when I play trivia and it has to click through things.

00:08:30 - 00:08:34 | Speaker 3:

Question two. Where does Moana's father forbid her from going?

00:08:35 - 00:08:43 | Speaker 4:

Like out past the point of where their island ends. Yeah, he goes, don't go beyond the reef.

00:08:43 - 00:08:49 | Speaker 3:

Beyond the reef. Beyond the reef. There you go. He had a dangerous experience as a teen.

00:08:49 - 00:08:53 | Speaker 4:

He did. That flashback is scary. I can see why he doesn't want his daughter to go out there.

00:08:53 - 00:09:16 | Speaker 3:

I get it. I'm a parent. Question three. What is the island called that Moana lives on? She is a girl who loves her island. It is called Montanui. There you go. Montanui. I am Moana of Montanui. You will board my boat, sail across the sea, and restore the heart of Te Fiti.

00:09:16 - 00:09:19 | Speaker 4:

The music in Moana. It's so good. It's such a good movie.

00:09:20 - 00:09:35 | Speaker 3:

Question four. What is the color of Moana's shell necklace? It's white, isn't it? It's blue. Though she keeps the heart of Defeati inside of it, which is green, the necklace that keeps it safe is the color blue.

00:09:35 - 00:09:50 | Speaker 4:

Okay, here's a picture of what the necklace looks like. The chain part is brown with white beads, and the pendant is blue so i think any of those colors would work question five what is maui the

00:09:50 - 00:10:00 | Speaker 3:

demigod of the fire and earth the waves and ocean or the wind and sea um i will guess

00:10:00 - 00:10:36 | Speaker 2:

wind and sea that is correct oh man what a guess it's like something i'm trying to think of the exact line it's like i am my way or something demi go out of the wind and and then she pops up from the ground like because he hit her with the boat and he goes i'm glad you're not asking a lot of moana 2 questions because oh i haven't even i have not seen moana 2. some of the songs from that one are really good as well okay they are question six what spirit animal does moana's grandmother turn into a manta ray yeah uh what spirit animal would you want to be probably

00:10:37 - 00:11:02 | Speaker 3:

something cool like a whale shark would be cool with like those oh is it an ocean animal no it could be anything like my patronus from harry potter that's what i keep thinking about um i would want my spirit animal to be an armadillo because they are so cute and they could just roll in a ball and roll over to whoever you're spiriting and just be like hello and pop open.

00:11:02 - 00:11:14 | Speaker 2:

Question seven. What is Maui's nickname for Heihei? Boat snack. My favorite. He says this because he doesn't understand why the chicken would travel on the boat other than to be a quick

00:11:14 - 00:11:30 | Speaker 3:

little meal. I don't understand it either. I don't understand. I mean, he snuck on though. Right. And props to Moana for keeping that thing as a pet because he is not smart, but not much meat either. No, he doesn't. He would be a very quick boat snack. Yeah, maybe half a drumstick.

00:11:30 - 00:11:37 | Speaker 2:

Right. Parent challenge. What other Disney movie character does Maui shapeshift into?

00:11:38 - 00:11:46 | Speaker 3:

Oh, that's a great question. Does he turn into Olaf? He turns into Sven. Maui briefly shapeshift

00:11:46 - 00:11:50 | Speaker 2:

into the reindeer from Frozen when its hook begins to break. But you had the right movie.

00:11:50 - 00:11:55 | Speaker 3:

Right. I love it when they throw Easter eggs in Disney movies from other Disney movies. I think

00:11:55 - 00:12:00 | Speaker 2:

that's clever. When Heihei was eating like the stuff that Moana dropped, there was like a Mickey

00:12:00 - 00:12:12 | Speaker 6:

Mouse in the pile. Oh, really? Oh, that's cool. Did you mess with my phone? Why is my connection suddenly good? We're trying T-Mobile. We switched to T-Mobile? No, we're doing a 30-day free trial.

Answers to the second round. Question 1. What Dr. Seuss book includes the character Sam I Am?

00:15:27 - 00:15:34 | Speaker 1:

Green Eggs and Ham! I was thinking Sam I Am was the name of the cat in the hat, but it's not.

00:15:34 - 00:15:47 | Speaker 2:

Oh, mom, that's the cat in the hat. Right. Question two. In Beverly Cleary's Ramona series, what is the name of Ramona's sister? Geraldine, Penelope, or Beatrice?

00:15:47 - 00:15:50 | Speaker 1:

Her name is Beatrice, but they call her Beezus.

00:15:51 - 00:16:08 | Speaker 2:

I read those when I was little. I remember reading like one or two and I saw this question. I was like, this is going to be a good one. I loved those books. Question three. What does the man in the yellow hat's tie look like? Does it have polka dots, stripes, or checks?

00:16:09 - 00:16:12 | Speaker 1:

Oh, I don't know. I don't even.

00:16:12 - 00:16:18 | Speaker 2:

I thought it was just yellow until I read, I like actually read it and I searched it up and I was like, there's no way it has this.

00:16:18 - 00:16:25 | Speaker 1:

I don't even know that I realized he was wearing a tie. Um, I'm going to say polka dots.

00:16:26 - 00:16:32 | Speaker 2:

That's correct. Yes. I would have thought maybe checks or stripes. I never would have guessed that he had polka dots

00:16:32 - 00:16:59 | Speaker 1:

on his tie. Do you remember what his real name is? George. No, that's the monkey. His real name is Ted Shackleford. I don't remember that, honestly. I looked that up once we asked it in a round a long, long, long time ago. Question four. Where is Paddington from? Oh, I believe, if I remember correctly from the movie. He is from Peru. That's correct. Yes. Paddington is a little

00:16:59 - 00:17:15 | Speaker 2:

bear who comes all the way from Peru and South America, and he's famous for his love of marmalade sandwiches. Why does he have a, doesn't he have a British accent? Yeah. Why does he have a Peruvian accent? I don't know, but there's a movie called Paddington in Peru. Is it, is it not called? Yeah.

00:17:15 - 00:17:19 | Speaker 1:

Does he come, does he go to England from Peru and then he gets a British accent? I don't know.

00:17:19 - 00:17:24 | Speaker 2:

Question five. In Amelia Bedelia, what is Amelia known for?

00:17:25 - 00:17:43 | Speaker 1:

She takes things seriously. Like we just had the idioms round last week. And so if you said something was a piece of cake, Amelia Bedelia would bring you a piece of cake. Like she doesn't understand. She doesn't understand like sarcasm and I don't know how to say it, but.

00:17:43 - 00:18:25 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, she takes things very literally. Yeah. Amelia gets confused because she doesn't understand that some phrases are just expressions and not literal instructions. If someone tells her to draw the curtains, she might actually pick up a pencil and start drawing pictures of the curtains instead of opening them. Which is very funny. Question six. What falls on flat Stanley making him as thin as paper? I don't know this one. I'm doing good. A piano. A bulletin board falls on him in like the middle of the night oh like above his bed it just well that would be or

00:18:25 - 00:18:31 | Speaker 1:

have to be a really heavy bulletin board like corks are not heavy right i mean he'd probably

00:18:31 - 00:19:13 | Speaker 2:

get hurt but i don't know about totally flattened flat but yeah okay question seven which is not eaten by the very hungry caterpillar a plum a banana or a pear i don't think he eats a banana That's correct. Yes. He doesn't eat the banana. I know he eats an apple. Chocolate cake, plums. Parent challenge. In To Kill a Mockingbird, what is the name of the lawyer defending Tom Robinson? Oh, I know this. Even I know this one. Right. I haven't read it, but I know his name is, like, unique. Yeah. I don't know. His name is Atticus Finch, and he's the main character's father.

00:19:13 - 00:20:00 | Speaker 1:

I didn't read in To Kill a Mockingbird. I had you for school, but it's kind of a hard read. Round number three, the category is things that are blue. Question one, what fast video game hero is known as the blue blur and collects golden rings? Question 2. What dairy product gets its distinct blue color from mold? Question 3. Which mischievous blue alien crashes into Earth and slowly...

00:20:00 - 00:21:42 | Speaker 2:

Which fuzzy blue monster from Sesame Street is known for being clumsy, silly, and sometimes speaking in a funny voice while trying to help his friends. Question 5.

Parent Challenge What is the Blue Power Rangers' real name in the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers TV show? Billy Cranston, Jason Lee Scott, or Zack Taylor?

00:21:47 - 00:21:58 | Speaker 1:

And now the round three answers Question one What fast video game hero is known as the Blue Blur and collects golden rings?

00:21:58 - 00:22:00 | Speaker 2:

Sonic the Hedgehog.

00:22:01 - 00:22:02 | Speaker 1:

The Hedgehog.

00:22:02 - 00:22:05 | Speaker 2:

Yep. Not Sonic the Burger Restaurant. Sonic the Hedgehog.

00:22:06 - 00:22:14 | Speaker 1:

Question two. What dairy product gets its distinct blue color from mold? And my mom really loves it.

00:22:14 - 00:22:25 | Speaker 2:

I do. This is my favorite kind of cheese. The blue cheese. That's correct. Oh, man. It is so... I could just sit with a container and just eat blue cheese crumbles. Oh, they're so good.

00:22:26 - 00:22:39 | Speaker 1:

Blue cheese is made from milk that is turned into cheese. A special safe mold is added. As the cheese sits and ages, the mold grows inside and makes the blue streaks and strong flavor.

00:22:39 - 00:22:40 | Speaker 2:

And deliciousness.

00:22:41 - 00:22:42 | Speaker 1:

That does not sound good to me.

00:22:42 - 00:22:43 | Speaker 2:

Give me it all.

00:22:44 - 00:23:04 | Speaker 1:

I could maybe try like a blue cheese dip for like a burger or something, but I don't know if I could just eat blue cheese. Question three. Which mischievous blue alien crashes onto earth and slowly learns about family and love while living with a girl named Lilo? Experiment 626. His name is Stitch.

00:23:04 - 00:23:09 | Speaker 2:

It actually is 626. I think so. I've done a lot of Lilo and Stitch rounds. I think it is.

00:23:09 - 00:23:47 | Speaker 1:

Never watched that movie. I haven't either. Question four. Which fuzzy blue monster from Sesame Street, is known for being clumsy, silly, and sometimes speaking in a funny voice while trying to help his friends. This is like my favorite one. Grover? Yeah. I'm trying to think of his funny voice that he does. Hello, everybody. This is your old pal, Grover. Question five. Which Disney character learns how to fly with pixie dust with her younger brothers Michael and John? Wendy Darling. Wendy Darling. I thought the answer was going to be

00:23:47 - 00:23:51 | Speaker 2:

Tinkerbell, and then I thought this is things that are blue, and she has a green dress, so that didn't

00:23:51 - 00:24:00 | Speaker 1:

work. Yeah. Wendy Darling. Question six. Which type of fish is Dory in Finding Nemo? A blue

00:24:00 - 00:24:11 | Speaker 2:

ocean ray, a blue tang, or a bluegill? I am thankful you gave me multiple choice because I did not know off the top of my head, but she is a blue tang. That is correct.

00:24:11 - 00:24:18 | Speaker 1:

Dory is a blue tang fish with a short memory and a playful attitude. And she has a very good motto. Just keep swimming.

00:24:18 - 00:24:25 | Speaker 2:

I like to think about that, because it's like, don't get down on yourself. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other and keep going. Yeah. I like it.

00:24:26 - 00:24:36 | Speaker 1:

Question seven. Which blue-skinned supervillain turned hero is known for his giant head, love of gadgets, and rivalry with Metro Man?

00:24:37 - 00:24:40 | Speaker 2:

Oh, Megamind.

00:24:40 - 00:24:42 | Speaker 1:

Yeah. That movie's so funny.

00:24:42 - 00:24:49 | Speaker 2:

I like Megamind because Will Ferrell is his voice. Are you serious? And I think Will Ferrell is so funny, so.

00:24:49 - 00:24:50 | Speaker 1:

There are so many funny lines in that movie.

00:24:50 - 00:24:57 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think that it's funnier since Will Ferrell is his voice. Like, I think he plays that up a lot.

00:24:57 - 00:25:00 | Speaker 1:

I guess I'll have to watch again and picture that. I just figured out.

00:25:00 - 00:25:09 | Speaker 2:

that tim allen voiced buzz in toy story 5 and all the toy stories and i thought that that was so much different when you watch the movies about it well because you just started watching home

00:25:09 - 00:25:16 | Speaker 1:

improvement so you had no idea who tim allen was before that parent challenge what is the blue

00:25:16 - 00:25:23 | Speaker 2:

power rangers real name in the original mighty morphin power rangers tv show billy cranston

00:25:23 - 00:25:34 | Speaker 1:

Jason Lee Scott or Zack Taylor? I have no idea. I remember kids that I babysat for watched Power

00:25:34 - 00:25:48 | Speaker 2:

Rangers. Oh, man. Billy Cranston is my guess. That is correct. Yeah. Jason Lee Scott is the Red Power Ranger and Zack Taylor is the Black Power Ranger. Go, go, Power Rangers. Money more

00:25:48 - 00:28:15 | Speaker 1:

and Power Rangers. I'm pretty sure that's how the theme song went. I didn't watch it, so I mean, I have no idea. A lot of kids love the Power Rangers. Round number four. The category is technology. Question one. What was the first ever computer mouse made out of? Steel, wood, or plastic? Question 2. True or false. Gold is not a good conductor of electricity. Question 3. What color was the original Game Boy? Question 4. One gigabyte is equal to how many megabytes? 75, 100, or 1,000? Question 5. What kitchen technology device was invented when the creator Percy Spencer noticed a melting chocolate bar in his pocket? Question 6. In Nintendo, what is the name of the pink dinosaur-like creature with a funnel-shaped mouth that wears a bow and is capable of spitting eggs? Question 7. What is the name of the popular e-reader made by Amazon that is used to read digital books? Parent Challenge What color do you get if you mix together the two colors that appear twice in the Google logo?

00:28:15 - 00:28:27 | Speaker 2:

And now the answers to round 4. Question 1. What was the first ever computer mouse made out of? Steel, wood, or plastic?

00:28:27 - 00:28:28 | Speaker 1:

It was made of wood.

00:28:28 - 00:28:39 | Speaker 2:

It was. The very first mouse looks nothing like today's sleek designs. It was a chunky wooden block with a cord sticking out, which is how it got the name mouse.

00:28:39 - 00:28:48 | Speaker 1:

Well how did it hook to the computer if it was made of wood? There had to be some sort of computer components in it, in the wood? Yeah. That seems odd.

00:28:48 - 00:28:55 | Speaker 2:

I thought it was just a normal mouse, and then they put a wood block on top of it. And now that you're saying that, I'm like, that doesn't really make sense.

00:28:55 - 00:28:56 | Speaker 1:

Must have happened.

00:28:56 - 00:29:02 | Speaker 2:

Question two. True or false? Gold is not a good conductor of electricity.

00:29:03 - 00:29:05 | Speaker 1:

I believe that's true.

00:29:05 - 00:29:13 | Speaker 2:

That is false. Gold is actually a very good conductor of electricity, which is why tiny bits of it are used inside computers and phones.

00:29:14 - 00:29:19 | Speaker 1:

Oh, that makes sense, because if you look at a microchip, a lot of the pieces are gold. Okay.

00:29:20 - 00:29:24 | Speaker 2:

Question three. What color was the original Game Boy?

00:29:25 - 00:29:26 | Speaker 1:

Gray?

00:29:26 - 00:29:26 | Speaker 2:

Yeah.

00:29:27 - 00:29:29 | Speaker 1:

That was a trick question.

00:29:29 - 00:29:40 | Speaker 2:

The first Game Boy came out in 1989, and even though the games were super simple, kids thought it was mind-blowing. It was chunky, gray, and totally awesome for its time.

00:29:40 - 00:29:42 | Speaker 1:

It totally was. We still have your dad's original one.

00:29:42 - 00:29:43 | Speaker 2:

I have a drawer over there.

00:29:43 - 00:29:48 | Speaker 1:

Yep. I didn't have one, but Dad did. So lucky. Oh, he was so cool. He was.

00:29:50 - 00:30:04 | Speaker 2:

Question four. One gigabyte is equal to how many megabytes? 75, 100, or 1,000? Well, mega feels big, so I'm going to say a thousand.

00:30:04 - 00:30:16 | Speaker 3:

That is correct. Yes. Question five. What kitchen technology device was invented when the creator, Percy Spencer, noticed a melting chocolate bar in his pocket?

00:30:16 - 00:30:17 | Speaker 2:

The microwave.

00:30:18 - 00:30:31 | Speaker 3:

That is correct. Percy Spencer discovered the idea for the microwave oven after noticing that a chocolate bar in his pocket had melted while he was working. This unexpected observation led to the invention of a faster way to heat and cook food.

00:30:31 - 00:30:50 | Speaker 2:

That is super interesting. I would also have been very concerned if that happened to me. Like, all of a sudden you're standing there and then the chocolate bar melts, and you're like, what just happened? Dude, what do you got in your pants, man? That probably did not look good for Percy Spencer or whatever his name was.

00:30:50 - 00:31:05 | Speaker 3:

Question six. What is the name of the pink dinosaur-like creature with a funnel-shaped mouth that wears a bow and is capable of spitting eggs? Birdo! That is correct.

00:31:06 - 00:31:07 | Speaker 2:

I love Birdo.

00:31:07 - 00:31:11 | Speaker 3:

I liked playing on our old, what was that called? The old...

00:31:11 - 00:31:11 | Speaker 2:

Switch?

00:31:12 - 00:31:14 | Speaker 3:

No. The old little...

00:31:14 - 00:31:15 | Speaker 2:

Oh, when we played my old Nintendo?

00:31:16 - 00:31:18 | Speaker 3:

Yeah, and it had, um...

00:31:18 - 00:31:19 | Speaker 2:

She was the bad guy in Super Mario Bros. 2.

00:31:19 - 00:31:21 | Speaker 3:

Yeah, you had to jump on her eggs and throw them at her.

00:31:21 - 00:31:32 | Speaker 2:

yep that was that was always like hard but it was always fun yeah she was like an og nintendo villain but now i don't think she's a villain because she's so cute with her little bow and

00:31:32 - 00:32:06 | Speaker 3:

her little big mouth and question seven what is the name of the popular e-reader made by amazon that is used to read digital books kindle kindle a kindle is like a small tablet made just for books. You can carry lots of stories in one little device instead of a big backpack full of books. Packback. That's funny. Parent challenge. What color do you get if you mix together the two colors that appear twice in the Google logo? There are two colors that appear twice

00:32:06 - 00:32:24 | Speaker 2:

in the word Google. I understand your question. I'm trying to think about what two. I feel there's that too isn't the g blue why would i tell you that i don't know i'm sorry i'm thinking out loud i'm thinking out loud i feel like the g is blue i feel like there's somewhere red in there

00:32:24 - 00:32:37 | Speaker 3:

i'm gonna guess purple that is correct yes red and blue appear twice in the logo it might it might start with blue but it goes like blue red yellow green blue red or something like that i could be

00:32:37 - 00:32:41 | Speaker 2:

be very wrong. You did such a great job with this round. I've written technology rounds before.

00:32:41 - 00:32:46 | Speaker 3:

They are hard. They are hard. That one spent me the longest. You did a really good job. Those

00:32:46 - 00:35:20 | Speaker 2:

were good questions. Thank you. Round number five. The category is music. Question one. What special accessory did Michael Jackson often wear on stage? A pair of glowing shoes, a silver cape, or a single white glove? Question 2. What is the largest brass instrument? Question 3. What female singer is known for her long bangs, Black and White Wig, and hit songs, Chandelier and Cheap Thrills. Question 4. How many different family members are in the song Baby Shark? Question 5. How many Kidz Bop albums have been sold since they started in 2001? 10 million, 15 million, or 20 million? Question 6. What movie did Justin Timberlake write the song, Can't Stop the Feeling, for? Question 7. What famous Latin singer performed at the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show? Kendrick Lamar, Shakira, or Bad Bunny? Parent Challenge! Which astronomer is name-dropped in Bohemian Rhapsody? The answer's to round five. question one what special accessory did michael jackson often wear on stage a pair of glowing shoes a silver cape or a singular white glove i thought it was silver but i know it's a glove i know i i got like mixed reviews whether it was white or whether it had those sequins on it right

00:35:20 - 00:35:29 | Speaker 3:

so i i just have i'm gonna go with glove yes that was correct but i am wearing a glove on

00:35:29 - 00:35:59 | Speaker 2:

only one pen it is super cool question two what is the largest brass instrument tuba tuba the tuba is the largest and lowest sounding brass instrument it is so big that musicians usually have to sit down to play it even though it's huge skilled players can make it sound smooth warm and and surprisingly gentle, but I wouldn't play the tuba. I'd get squished.

00:35:59 - 00:36:09 | Speaker 3:

Yeah, you have to at least be of some size. It is a very large instrument. Like, Brooks could fit in the tuba. He couldn't play the tuba, at least yet.

00:36:09 - 00:36:20 | Speaker 2:

Yeah. Question three, what female singer is known for her long bangs, black and white wig, and hit songs, chandelier, and cheap thrills?

00:36:20 - 00:36:24 | Speaker 3:

Sia. That is correct. But you know what she can't do? What?

00:36:24 - 00:36:31 | Speaker 2:

with that wig on. Ba-dum-bum. Question four. How many different family members are in the song

00:36:40 - 00:36:49 | Speaker 2:

Kidz Bop albums have been sold since they started in 2001? 10 million, 15 million, or 20 million?

00:36:49 - 00:36:58 | Speaker 3:

I thought you were going to ask me what number they're up to. Like, Kidz Bop. Kidz Bop 68. How many have they sold?

00:36:58 - 00:37:00 | Speaker 2:

That's a good question, too.

00:37:00 - 00:37:07 | Speaker 3:

I'm going to guess 20 million. That's correct. This is the highest one. Did you know that you went to a Kidz Bop concert?

00:37:07 - 00:37:18 | Speaker 2:

I went with Grandma, yeah? You did. Question six. What movie did Justin Timberlake write the song Can't Stop the Feeling for? Trolls. Can't stop the feeling.

00:37:19 - 00:37:33 | Speaker 3:

I can dance, dance, dance. We saw Trolls in the theater like three times. Yeah. I loved that movie. It is a good movie. So good. I love the music. I love colorful things. And it was a good

00:37:33 - 00:37:57 | Speaker 2:

movie. Question seven. What famous Latin singer performed at the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show? Kendrick Lamar, Shakira, or Bad Bunny? It was Bad Bunny. It was. Parent Challenge. Which astronomer is named dropped in Bohemian Rhapsody? Galileo! Galileo Figaro!

00:37:58 - 00:38:00 | Speaker 3:

That is one of the best songs ever.

00:38:00 - 00:38:02 | Speaker 2:

It's a great song. One guy wrote the whole thing.

00:38:02 - 00:38:03 | Speaker 3:

Was it Freddie Mercury?

00:38:04 - 00:38:07 | Speaker 2:

I don't know who wrote it, but it was like their songwriter. One person wrote it.

00:38:07 - 00:38:16 | Speaker 3:

It's like two different songs in one, so that's crazy that one guy made it. It's the most unique song ever. Yeah, it's like a whole different song style. Totally.

00:38:16 - 00:38:22 | Speaker 4:

answer to the conversation starter. If you could control all of the elements, you would most enjoy controlling water, earth, or fire. I was going to say earth because we live on earth, and then I

00:54:33 - 00:54:42 | Speaker 1:

thought that water is way more prevalent on the earth so i would control water because there's

00:54:42 - 00:55:00 | Speaker 2:

way more of it than earth i was gonna say fire and not like the most popular one but the most fun one you know like oh yeah i could see that making s'mores whenever you want yeah yeah or like heating up water for mac and cheese i see that you do

00:55:00 - 00:55:05 | Speaker 1:
