Will You Survive... The Podcast
Survival Word Association Challenge 2
The ability to communicate clearly during a crisis might be your most valuable survival skill. In this episode, we put our communication abilities to the test with our survival-themed guessing game "1 to 100," where players must identify crucial survival items through a series of clues.
Think of it as "hot and cold" with life-or-death stakes. One person thinks of a survival item or concept, while others guess words and receive a numerical rating from 1-100. The higher the number, the closer they are to the correct answer. It sounds simple, but the pressure of finding the right word reveals how challenging clear communication can be when it matters most.
Our gameplay uncovers fascinating survival knowledge along the way. Did you know tundras are technically classified as deserts despite their frigid temperatures? Or that potassium iodide tablets work by preventing your thyroid from absorbing radiation during nuclear emergencies? We also debate the practical advantages of crossbows versus firearms in survival situations and discuss the versatile kukri knife that originated in Nepal.
The episode takes a surprising historical detour when we learn that powdered wigs became popular primarily because widespread syphilis caused hair loss - proving that even our fashion choices are shaped by survival adaptations! Between rounds, we introduce Cozy Moto Wesker Shrimp Gatsby the 18th (just "Cozy" for short), our newest four-legged survival team member.
Join us for laughs, survival knowledge, and a reminder that in any emergency, your ability to clearly communicate needs and understand others might be your greatest asset. Subscribe now and test your own survival communication skills!
Hello survivors and welcome to another episode of Will you Survive.
Speaker 2:The Podcast.
Speaker 1:I'm joined here by my two lovely co-hosts, Alex that's me and TJ.
Speaker 2:I am just in a pit of indescribable emptiness where the void is speaking to me constant. I can no longer see the sun.
Speaker 1:Okay, ron burgundy my favorite colors are blood and dark black. All right, tj has decided to become goth. Uh, wow, for a second there. That was the smoothest intro I think we've had in a while.
Speaker 4:Until TJ spoke yeah, and you know what I like that.
Speaker 1:I like that. So this episode we watched. Just kidding, I didn't watch anything About.
Speaker 2:I have a 32 minutes of a movie that we shouldn't say that we were supposed to watch. Yeah Well, we.
Speaker 1:Well, I'm the host, so I say we were never supposed to watch. Yeah well, I'm the host, so I say we were never supposed to watch a movie, although I did this morning or yesterday morning.
Speaker 3:This morning.
Speaker 1:This morning say what movie we were going to watch, although that should have been the indicator that I was not going to watch said movie.
Speaker 4:By the way, I want to go on the record this is constitutionally sound Water. It is not water.
Speaker 2:Oh.
Speaker 4:It's just straight russian happy juice.
Speaker 1:Uh, russian happy juice and soda oh, what soda. Uh, lacroix, oh lacroix, that's hardly a soda, it's, it's. Look, yeah, that's that shit is made in america.
Speaker 2:It is lacroix lacroix, lacroix.
Speaker 4:I appreciate that. I appreciate that that shit's LaCrox. Lacrox.
Speaker 1:That's even better. So we didn't watch the movie. I know I lost him for a second too. Oh, sorry, okay, well, that was out of nowhere. I have a dog. I just got a dog and I'm very excited about him.
Speaker 3:He's a puppy and he's very cute TJ.
Speaker 2:we'll reveal the name.
Speaker 1:Do you know his full name?
Speaker 2:His full name is Lateflon Plumbus Jr Jr. Sr III DeBarcus, 444 Willems I like DeBarcus.
Speaker 1:Debarcus is pretty cute. Actually his name is Cozy Moto Wesker Shrimp Gatsby the 18th, but it's Cozy for short.
Speaker 4:Yes ladies and gentlemen, that is named after the Wesker.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so Cozy was the name he got from the shelter. I think Wesker fits him. It's the bad guy from Resident Evil One of them. It oddly fits him. Gatsby also fits him very well. Shrimp is kind of an inside joke at work. And then the 18th was suggested because they said it sounds like he has some sentries on him because he looks like he descends from a white wig wearing man and I feel like that's accurate.
Speaker 4:George Washington's dog.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he looks like George Washington's wig, so Cozy Moto is you? Knowimodo fun fact so cozimoto wesker shrimp, gatsby the 18th all of you know.
Speaker 2:You know you think back in the day. Everybody's wearing powdered wigs. Do you know why?
Speaker 1:why, syphilis?
Speaker 2:wait, actually what? Yeah, they lost all their hair, so they had to wear powdered wigs don't think it was pretty sure was it syphilis, or was it like chlamydia or something, I don don't think either of those.
Speaker 4:I think it was.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't think either of those caused hair loss.
Speaker 4:I think it was head lice. Now Taste the Rambo just said Wesker had the best shades in the series. The dog needs his own version of the shades.
Speaker 2:To hide hair loss from baldness or diseases like syphilis.
Speaker 4:Oh wow, tj in with the knowledge.
Speaker 2:TJ knows everything about STDs.
Speaker 4:I collect them. Whoa Gotta catch them? All Gotta catch them all.
Speaker 1:No, you don't. You don't have to. I've got them in test tubes. You don't have to Ew. That's worse than just having them.
Speaker 4:I just have like a bunch of strains inside of needles just in case I need them host how?
Speaker 1:about. Uh, you tell us what we're doing today. Oh yeah, well, I was happy to just keep doing that for a while.
Speaker 1:So minus five million points for that, I'm just um, that would have been so funny if you weren't kidding I decided we're going to revisit a game that I think we had a lot of fun with and I think everybody did a great job in, and there was definitely nothing that needs to be brought up. This episode from last episode we're doing 1 to 100, part 2. Tarpon Square. No see, that's what I Okay, minus one who would like to go first?
Speaker 2:I would Would like him to go first.

Speaker 4:I want to get to 100. Yes.
Speaker 1:I have your word.
Speaker 4:Okay, and is it for navigation? I'm supposed to ask it more direct.
Speaker 1:One.
Speaker 4:It's just a single word word I took navigation as your word navigation as a word uh forest oh 50 um wood 55 paper 60 not getting there. Not getting there, okay, but we're going in a direction, uh can I?
Speaker 1:can I redo paper?
Speaker 4:okay, I'm like 85 85 uh, and navigation was one, so it's map okay, it has nothing to do with navigation papers 80 is it square? No, I, that was tj's help fucking those tj's one. Okay, it's not map, no, it's not tarp this out one.
Speaker 1:Okay, it's not map.

Speaker 1:Oh, this is going to suck, okay. Okay, my brain's a little affected by substances at the moment. Not anything crazy, but enough that my brain's working in funny ways. This is going to be really difficult for you guys, because I don't know how to get you here. What'd you say?
Speaker 4:fire fire.
Speaker 1:Fuck. When you get the word, this is gonna make sense.
Speaker 4:30 oh, oh okay okay chat. This is like a game of hot and cold the closer we get to 100, the more likely we get the item. It is for survival. It is for overall survival. I asked about navigation. It has nothing to do with navigation. Now we're at fire is 70.
Speaker 1:No, fire is 30.
Speaker 4:Fire is 30. Sorry, tarp was 70.
Speaker 1:Paper is 80.

Speaker 1:I fucked up because I started visualizing it in my mind, and in my mind, the closer you got to zero, the closer you were to it.
Speaker 2:Because I'm an idiot no, but it's closer to 100 fire yeah, it's closer to 100.
Speaker 4:Okay, fire 70 fire is 70, uh is is tarp still 85 no tarp is like 15.

Speaker 2:And if I guess it do, I have a point, oh man.
Speaker 1:Are you flipping this on me again? No, no, that's accurate, it's just.
Speaker 3:I'm not doing you any favors?
Speaker 2:Do I get a point if I guess it, though? Uh sure, I don't think you're gonna guess it heat uh no no you want that to be a.
Speaker 1:I mean, it doesn't really matter, you want me to read that. Yeah, really, we were working together last time too, because I would say, I would say 90, oh, but no well, no Well, no Okay, let me read. No, I'm going to say 10.
Speaker 4:Heat is 10.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 4:Fire is 70. Heat is 10.
Speaker 1:Camp 15.
Speaker 4:Hmm, fire is 70. What else, what else? What else Did I already say? I don't remember if I said flashlight, flashlight you already said, that did I. I rated it low, it's like 10.
Speaker 1:Okay, um tent uh 10, it's not an object oh, not an object.
Speaker 4:Not an object, uh light no no five fire, not an object. Uh light, oh no, five fire, not an object um oven was low um I would just start going with the senses no, it's not an object.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I know uh that's all I was gonna play, maybe warmth, but but that was me.
Speaker 4:And it's a survival item, right it's not an object. It's not an object.
Speaker 1:It's survival related, but it's not an object.
Speaker 4:Survival Water.
Speaker 1:Okay, okay, we're getting somewhere. 70.
Speaker 4:Water and fire are both at 70. Purification.
Speaker 1:No five.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:Is it like a statement water? And fire no, it's not a statement um uh dehydration oh, 90, um. Okay, I know how I could get you there uh I'm not giving you a hit right now oh you're like looking down. I'm like no, I was looking for my dog, what?
Speaker 1:um water and fire both at 70 um dehydration is 90 um no shit, right, I feel like you're there, I feel like you're getting it. Uh think just broad survival. I feel like I have to give you some more hints because I really fucked you in the beginning is it um?
Speaker 4:it's a concept, it's not.
Speaker 1:It's not an object, it's I wouldn't call it a concept is it um like?
Speaker 4:is it the rule of three?
Speaker 1:it's not a concept okay, I I would say that's like one okay water and fire both at 70 um dehydration is at 90 well, I mean, I actually I would say the rule of threes are just pretty universal 50 exposure, oh uh, 90 dehydration.
Speaker 4:Okay, okay. So we're, we're in that, we're in that realm where we want to be dehydration exposure that 90 mark um um elements, um, uh, what else could we say? What else, what else is there? Dehydration, fire or dehydration?
Speaker 1:what else was it can I give you guys, each three hints that you've already had to um, yeah okay, I'll allow each of you three hints. Uh, because good luck today. Um, you were closer when you were guessing things like camp, like places um dehydration desert 95 desert's 95 desert is 95 um um.
Speaker 2:Do you remember what he put forest at?
Speaker 3:Forest was like 50.
Speaker 4:Stranded.
Speaker 1:Not like five.
Speaker 4:Desert 95. Dehydration Heat Desert is 95. That means that as I'm working this out, I want to get up to that next word. That would be how do I get closer from water fire? Dehydration exposure. Dehydration exposure right there desert? Um, oh, he's right there. Um, what is the word? What is the word? What is the word Castaway?
Speaker 1:Oh, no Five.
Speaker 4:Desert Exposure.
Speaker 3:Marooned.
Speaker 4:What is the word Lost?
Speaker 1:You were closer with places.
Speaker 4:Desert Tundra.
Speaker 1:Yes, tundra.
Speaker 4:Is that it?
Speaker 1:That's the word, that was the word Tundra yes, hundred, is that?
Speaker 4:that's the word. That was the word tundra. Okay, all right, okay, yeah, no, no, no I get it.
Speaker 2:That was, that was decent eric, that's, that was decent.
Speaker 1:Okay, really okay, good, no, because like was it fair to put heat at 70? Because I was thinking like that's super important, it would be very hard. Well, no heat, I put it at 20. It was fire that I put at 70 because I was like you're gonna need that.
Speaker 4:But yeah, it's because a tundra can be like.
Speaker 1:Antarctica is a tundra, siberia is a tundra yeah they're deserts, but they're not that's why I was like I I when I said I know how I can get you there yeah it was, if you guess desert I can give you 95 because it could have been way shorter.
Speaker 2:What you're thinking? Yeah, if you just said cold.
Speaker 1:You know what sucks just said cold. I would.
Speaker 4:It's like 99 I thought of tundra much earlier, but I was second guessing myself oh my gosh, okay, okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1:I really fucked you over in the beginning there. Okay, I'm with it. I'm hip, all right, tj, are you ready? It's TJ's turn. You have to do that now. For every single time I have your word. It is one to 100. 70. Cold Probably 20.
Speaker 2:I'm getting on my notepad.
Speaker 4:Ladies and gentlemen, this is a one to 100 DJs guessing, guessing Eric's mind, which could take us a while. We get rankings on the words that we guess, from one to 100, 100 being the ultimate goal. That is the word.
Speaker 2:Uh object.
Speaker 1:Oh, good, word 95. Word 95 fire starter one. Well, 20, no, no, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, one pack pack yeah uh, one pouch one, okay, um, I think this is how I should rate things.
Speaker 2:Object 95. So it's an object.
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm navigation uh one, but you have three hints, of princess, you have three I'll take a hint um, it's two words. It's two words, yeah, but it's one. Object food, uh one. I suggest the stone words out.
Speaker 2:Desert, uh oh no one salamander, one purple one.
Speaker 1:These are just wildly unrelated, so I don't know where. I don't I feel like putting them anywhere other than one seems unfair purple rain okay, but imagine like a random one and then it fucking there you go 98 um fire uh, 50. No, no, sorry, sorry, no, no one one. I'm sorry, that's my fault. That's my fault, I've twice confused the object. But that's a one, two words object survival related yes weapon uh one uh tool, yeah two, oh uh uh 65 um useful. A little subjective 80?.
Speaker 2:Can I have another hint?
Speaker 1:More of a unit of an object.
Speaker 2:What does that even mean?
Speaker 1:Like you would technically say, like it's not technically one thing, but it is all one unit and all parts are needed to do what it does.
Speaker 2:Filter 75. Water 80.
Speaker 1:I feel like you're getting there.
Speaker 2:I'm writing them down as I go. Did I say purify?
Speaker 1:No, you did not. 95. I'm writing them down as I go. Did I say purify? No, you did not. Uh, 95. I think for purposes that's fair, but by technicalities I feel like that should be lower. But I think 95.
Speaker 2:And it's an object Um fuck Plastic.
Speaker 1:Uh, 40. Metal 40. Fuck Plastic 40.
Speaker 2:Metal 40.
Speaker 1:I'm not 100% on those answers. Maybe take those with a grain of salt. I don't think so.
Speaker 4:I'm pretty sure that's fair but I don't really know. I don't really know what I think of the answers.
Speaker 2:I gave you Hot was 70? Yeah. Object 95, purify Another hint please.
Speaker 1:Your final hint. We've talked about it extensively on this podcast Solar still 100. Dang, I knew that was was gonna give it right away. That was almost gonna be my first hint and I was like, no, I was gonna give it away uh, I I thought a solar still, and then I I was like I get it, though.
Speaker 2:That was those those.
Speaker 1:You did the good on that hot 70 right it's necessary yeah, and then did it seem fair to rate all those stuff one, because I'm like it has nothing to do with it at all yeah, I get it as a vibe. It could have been purple. You know, I did consider that. Josh just said it could have been purple yeah I very much did consider giving that like a five or something, but I was like oh, that'll be the one thing he sits on is that purple is a five it'll fucking sit on it forever, so I'm just gonna give it a one.
Speaker 1:It could be purple, alex's turn you said nice for everyone I like that, I like the commitment. I have your word.
Speaker 4:Real quick. What's the word?
Speaker 1:One.
Speaker 4:Communication oh, fuck off 40. Navigation.
Speaker 1:Well, no 20.
Speaker 4:Food 20.
Speaker 1:Water Shelter 10, 20. 20.
Speaker 4:40, 20.
Speaker 1:Food 20. Water One Shelter 10. First aid Five Navigation was 40?.
Speaker 4:Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1:It could be like 30. Is it a noun.
Speaker 4:I should say noun.
Speaker 1:That's a good question, uh person, place or thing yeah, 95. That's an interesting tactic that you guys have pulled, by the way well, I needed it.
Speaker 4:On the first one, you said it's not an object I would have never yeah I mean, but although technically it was, but more accurately it was a noun.
Speaker 1:Yeah well, I wouldn't say tundra is an object, it's a place.
Speaker 3:Yeah, a climate.
Speaker 4:So it's a noun, Let me say paper 15. I know what it is Tarp.
Speaker 1:Minus five. You can't do that. Minus five.
Speaker 4:That's unfair. That's just mean you did it to yourself, own it. You should be giving me points for bringing it up.
Speaker 1:Oh, that was just the reading of the word, oh.
Speaker 4:Let me see, let me oh um, let me see, let me see, let me see, uh, temperature, uh one okay compass one okay, so it's a thing in the noun category and but it has nothing to do with first aid.
Speaker 1:Food, water, navigation communication I mean very loosely not communication I think I gave communication a one. No, I gave that a higher one, but for reasons I don't think you should dwell on navigation.
Speaker 4:You gave 40, so that was the closest thing. So it has nothing to do with any of those. Um, I forget, I'm I forget, I'm sorry, your rating on shelter 10. Okay, it's a thing, water One Did I already say food.
Speaker 3:Yes 20.
Speaker 4:That was Okay. Gathering.
Speaker 1:Well, maybe 40.
Speaker 4:Okay, still too far away.
Speaker 1:Can I redo home?
Speaker 4:Redo.
Speaker 1:Or you said shelter, shelter. No too far away.
Speaker 4:Can I redo?
Speaker 1:home Redo. Or you said shelter, shelter, no, never mind.
Speaker 4:No, I think you also gave fire a very low rating right.
Speaker 1:Fire, I would give maybe five.
Speaker 4:Nothing was above 50. Nothing so far, other than it's a noun. It's a thing. Nothing to do with water, food, first aid, shelter, what the hell? No communication. Very loosely to do with navigation. It's not a compass Watch.
Speaker 1:One Knife oh 80.
Speaker 4:Hunting 50. Okay, Knife 80.
Speaker 1:I wouldn't bet money on that answer loosely to do with knife.
Speaker 4:Knife thing um 80. I mean, why are you giving such a high rating if I shouldn't? No, not that one on hunting oh um knife is 80 let me say dressing uh five do you know what I mean by dressing?
Speaker 1:Like a wound.
Speaker 4:Um, like, like, uh, gutting and cleaning an animal.
Speaker 1:Oh, oh, I don't know. I think five would be right.
Speaker 3:Far. Away.
Speaker 4:Okay, knife.
Speaker 1:It's not what I think of it, or? Knife, it's not a hunting knife, if that's what you're getting at.
Speaker 3:Hmm.
Speaker 1:Hmm.
Speaker 4:That it.
Speaker 1:That's a freebie hatchet, 70 hatchets a little further away from knife.
Speaker 4:What if we go up? Well, what about a machete? That's like a 90 machete, 90, self-defense? What 95? Sword 95? Sword 90. Kukui 100. All right.
Speaker 1:See, that's why I asked about home and shelter, because if you said home, I would have given it a higher rating.
Speaker 4:Because it's here. Because it's here, that's good.
Speaker 1:All right, all right. Well, just to recap Alex has successfully gotten Tundra and Kukui TJ has successfully gotten tundra and kukui tj has successfully gotten solar. Still tj, are you ready for your next one? It's tj's turn okay, I have your word tj food, uh, uh 40 water.
Speaker 2:Hey, I'm getting it, huh water oh Water oh 70. Electricity One Thirst.
Speaker 1:Uh 50.
Speaker 4:Hmm Interesting.
Speaker 1:Hot oh 90. Oil Uh 10.
Speaker 2:Imagine it's solar still again, I'd respect it 100. Fuck, I'm not writing it down. What's what was hot again 90 is. I'm not writing it down.
Speaker 1:What's what was hot again? 90 is, I think, what I said.
Speaker 2:Object.
Speaker 1:One.
Speaker 2:I said water. What was water again?
Speaker 1:70. Moisture, 90. I'd even say 95. Collection One Dangerous, oh, 99. Steam 10.
Speaker 2:I'm so stupid. What did you give 99? I'm trying to write them down Moisture, moisture.
Speaker 1:Oh, dangerous, dangerous, Sorry, dangerous. Moisture was 90. Alive, oh, 60. Oh, no, maybe more. How much is that going, mold?
Speaker 2:It's definitely not mold, is it uh?
Speaker 1:mold would be I don't really know 20, what was the one you guessed before mold?
Speaker 2:you're asking me the wrong questions here you're the one asking the questions I feel like you should be keeping track of that, I know um survival.
Speaker 1:Uh, I'm 50 weapon, got one did I say tool already.
Speaker 2:No, you didn't but one I wish I still had him, scott damn no, I meant three per guess.
Speaker 1:Oh can.
Speaker 2:I have a hint, please.
Speaker 1:Yeah, think more like a place. Volcano, one, hot spring, oh, maybe five. I could be wrong about that.
Speaker 4:Keep going in that line, tundra.
Speaker 1:One Forest 70.
Speaker 4:Oh, DJ, I have a guess. Think of a very specific place.
Speaker 1:You know it.
Speaker 2:You got it A very specific place.
Speaker 4:Yeah, closer to you than us.
Speaker 1:I don't think you got it.
Speaker 4:Oh really.
Speaker 1:Maybe Washington One, california One?
Speaker 2:Island One Rainforest 100.
Speaker 1:Oh, okay, makes sense.
Speaker 4:Rainforest 100. Oh okay.
Speaker 1:Make sense.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's hot, it has water Very dangerous. It's moisture Dangerous.
Speaker 4:That's funny because hot water moisture, dangerous living. I was thinking Old Faithful, oh, because you said hot springs and you were like it may not be. So I was like, oh, you might be looking for geyser.
Speaker 1:When you said hot springs, I was like I wouldn't doubt that there are hot springs in the rainforest, but it is not something I think about when I think about a rainforest. But I could be wrong about that.
Speaker 2:I don't know how common that is. I don't think there is Actually.
Speaker 4:Yes, there are.
Speaker 3:Scratch that there is yes, there are.
Speaker 1:Yeah, scratch that, there is no.
Speaker 2:I, I think I remember seeing a video I've seen, like instagram posts where it looks like a hot spring in a rainforest. I think it was zander budnick on youtube. I think he was in like the amazon rainforest or something and there was like a natural hot spring that led into the river, but I don't know yes, that's what I'm like.
Speaker 1:I could definitely.
Speaker 4:I wasn't sure about that one, but you got it now also, just and just so you know, um in alaska, there's technically a rainforest up there, even though it is it rain forest in washington too. It snows an awful lot up there and it actually has a uh wonderful hot spring I didn't know it was classified.
Speaker 1:See, when I think rainforest, I think the amazon yeah, most people do I, I, I guess, the same way that some people wouldn't think of antarctica as a desert, I guess it's kind of like that yeah all right. Uh, alex, are you ready for your last word?
Speaker 4:Okay.
Speaker 1:I have it.
Speaker 4:Okay, last word, let's go. Is it a noun, a noun?
Speaker 1:95.
Speaker 4:Okay, food 20. Water 20. Self-defense. Well, 40. Shelter One Navigation.
Speaker 1:One.
Speaker 4:Communication One Shelter's 40?.
Speaker 1:No one.
Speaker 4:Or self-defense rather, yeah.
Speaker 1:Self-defense.
Speaker 4:Meh, it's a noun Self-defense. I think that one will only make sense once you know the word okay, um, let's start knife. Uh one, um, what about more vague? What about blade?
Speaker 1:uh, maybe five okay, stone.
Speaker 4:Maybe, five, okay, stone, one Metal.
Speaker 1:I don't know, hang on.
Speaker 4:And for those of you just tuning in, we're playing a game called 1 to 100, where our host, eric, has a word and we're trying to guess what that word is. Specifically Similar to hot and cold, if you remember. Am I hot, am I cold?
Speaker 1:One Metal is.
Speaker 4:One Metal is one Plastic, one oh jeez Metal plastic organic.
Speaker 1:One.
Speaker 4:So it's inorganic. It's for self-defense. It's really not for anything else in the categories.
Speaker 1:I really wouldn't dwell on self-defense at all.
Speaker 4:No food, no water, no shelter, no communication, no navigation. It is inorganic, but it's not plastic, uh, nylon one um polyester one fiberglass one chimney cricket. How many more inorganics do you need? It's not metal, and metal is organic Glass.
Speaker 2:One.
Speaker 1:Jesus, I would give you more than one for fiberglass If it was glass.
Speaker 4:They're completely different.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but you said half the word.
Speaker 4:Sand, that's organic.
Speaker 1:What is your word? Sand? No, I don't know, oh, no one.
Speaker 4:Jeez, what? All right, give me my first hint.
Speaker 1:It's an item.
Speaker 4:it's an item, it's an item, it's an item. Um okay, uh, let me say bass pro.
Speaker 1:Uh, I don't think so.
Speaker 4:Five Um, let me be more generic retail uh meaning is it sold in retail stores?
Speaker 1:oh 20 online oh 50 it's an item I'm assuming I can purchase it.
Speaker 4:It's not really for self-defense, but maybe could be used in a pinch Hammer One. It's inorganic but it's not metal, so that wasn't a good call. Let me see, let me see, let me see.
Speaker 1:I know what my neck tent for you is um let me ask a rubber one.
Speaker 4:What the fuck is this material? It's not plastic, it's not fiberglass, it's not polyester, it's not nylon, it's not metal wood petroleum, but no, it was inorganic one. It's not metal Wood Petroleum, but no, it was inorganic.
Speaker 1:One. It's not wood, right, no one.
Speaker 4:What the fuck could this material be Paper?
Speaker 1:No one.
Speaker 2:Tape One.
Speaker 4:Jeez Velcro.
Speaker 1:One.
Speaker 4:Let me say baseball bat one. Um, let me say what about? Oh goodness gracious, it's not plastic, it's not nylon, it's not polyester, I don't know what other inorganic material things are made of Vinyl. Uh one um, I need my last hint fallout, uh, fallout shelter uh one iodine 95 um antibiotic, oh like 80, 80, but it defends you and iodine is high iodine it's. It's an anti, anti-radiation. Um, I feel like I should give you a free aluminum foil. I feel like I should give you a free hint it's iodine.
Speaker 1:It's an anti-radiation. I feel like.
Speaker 4:I should give you a free hint Aluminum foil.
Speaker 1:I feel like I should give you a free hint to say it's technically two words.
Speaker 2:It's two words.
Speaker 1:Iodine 95.
Speaker 4:Iodine pill, iodine pill.
Speaker 1:I'll take it Iodine tablets, iodine tablets. Okay, does that make sense? Yeah but I believe iodine is organic. No, I looked it up. Potassium iodine are made of potassium and stable, non-radioactive iodide salt and when you look up iodine, it's an element.
Speaker 4:Oh, interesting.
Speaker 1:It's not technically inorganic or organic Is at least what AI Overview said. Yeah, which is what I was trusting.
Speaker 4:I thought it was a metal.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I thought so too. That's why I had to look that up. Not a metal and it's not a rock. Potassium is a metal. Potassium is a metal. Yeah, I didn't know about that until a little later.
Speaker 4:You know, that's very interesting.
Speaker 3:Right.
Speaker 4:Potassium is a metal, alright.
Speaker 2:Okay, TJ, are you ready?
Speaker 1:You ready for your last word? I am ready. Okay, I have your word, hot.
Speaker 2:One.
Speaker 1:Cold.
Speaker 3:One.
Speaker 2:Cold One Water, one Moisture, one Dangerous 80.
Speaker 1:Weapon 95. Metal 90. Just to get it out of the way Wood 90.
Speaker 2:Just to get it out of the way, wood 70.
Speaker 1:Not a kukuri. It could probably go lower. Wood could probably go lower Sword One Cut, one Bludgeon, one Shoot. Well, I mean technically I guess 10 for Bludgeon One. Shoot. Well, I mean technically, I guess, 10 for bludgeon Shoot 95. Gun 50. Bow 99. Bow and arrow 99. Crossbow 100. Wow, he got that one way faster, he got that one real quick with no hints, let's go. I think getting weapon at 95 really early was very helpful. Okay, guys, how do we feel about part 2?
Speaker 2:part 2 to this is this the season of part 2.
Speaker 3:Yeah we just only do part 2.
Speaker 2:I liked it. Yeah, no, it's a lot better. I feel like the uh, the stuff in your system that's been you're like, oh, it's gonna fuck me up. I feel like it was it was helping you here, uh wow I actually got words.
Speaker 1:Uh, we weren't stuck on tarp I feel like my stuff actually made sense today.
Speaker 2:Yes, besides the beginning, where you inverted your rules, yeah I don't know what the hell happened there.
Speaker 1:That was bad, I'm sorry. Okay, well, I appreciate you guys playing. Um, I guess I have to choose a winner now while you're doing that, I have some interesting information that I just learned from this.
Speaker 4:Iodine tablets specifically work against radiation by blocking the radiation or blocking the thyroids from absorbing that radiation, so it allows your body to pass it through. Otherwise your thyroids would naturally absorb the radiation in an attempt to in its attempt to defend you.
Speaker 2:Did you say lead as one of your?
Speaker 4:guesses I didn't, I didn't that would have been a great I did say metal, but lead is a little.
Speaker 1:If you said lead, that's radiation and if you said lead, I would have associated radiation, probably giving you like 60 or 70.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I don't know how well that would have helped you or thrown you off but well, if I would have a couple words that could have revealed, I guess it would have made it a little better if you would have rated metal a little bit higher, because yeah, um I didn't know about potassium, like if you were to say, like hazards and stuff which is is funny because, uh, iodine tablets are specifically potassium iodide.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I didn't know about the potassium part. I didn't know potassium was a metal, so I was not going to be much help there.
Speaker 2:Potassium metal is cool. It's highly reactive.
Speaker 4:This is the purpose of the podcast. We want to learn all of these little niche information bits.
Speaker 1:Share them with everybody.
Speaker 4:And we do it in fun games.
Speaker 1:So is lead not as soft as potassium no, no, definitely you guys know that joke where uh doctors or dentists or whatever uh put a lead bib over your balls and then walk behind a concrete wall and then they over an intercom, go, don't worry, it's totally safe.
Speaker 2:I mean yeah, they do kind of walk but it's because they get it all it's because they're doing that all day, yeah so like they would be getting it once is way better than them getting it 3 000 times yeah, eight hours a day wow, slowly cooking your meat Sounds like pussies, but whatever. Yeah, you'll probably grow one if you get exposed to that enough.
Speaker 1:Damn. Never mind, I'm not going to go where I was going to go. Okay to end this episode I have to choose a winner. I've carefully considered and I'm so sorry, but after that final round it has to go to TJ for him.
