Love the podcast, but I feel like this impeachment concept is still not being communicated accurately. It's pretty simple though...The House of Reps impeaches (the Senate does not). You can think of this part of the process sort of like a criminal indictment that yields formal charges. If the House passes impeachment articles (charges), the process is moved into the Senate where they try the case (which is presided over by the chief justice of the SCOTUS). There are several options the Senate can take, but the ultimate outcome is conviction and removal from office. This is how a president can be impeached but not convicted or removed. Basically all that means is that the House was really pissed off at the president, voted on some charges, but the Senate didn't do anything concrete about it. - “submitted by Evan Tishuk Shout out to Dan Lundberg and Chuck Grovenor for educating us further on the process of impeachment in the Know Nonsense Trivia Facebook group.

In the comics it is Max Eisenhardt.” - submitted by Quizmaster Lee * Erin Sullivan and Andrew Fiffick wrote in to inform us that the classic Disney animators name is pronounced Ub, like “chub” as Andrew puts it. He adds that Ub Iwerks “isn't one of Walt Disney's 9 old men because he had left the company in 1929 and the 9 old men, who were all animators, came about in the mid 30s. Ub did return to the company in 1940 and pioneered many special effects used in their films.” * “Let me start by saying, that I am a religious listener of the podcast.

The only disease to have ever been fully eradicated was smallpox, which was officially declared eradicated in 1980. Efforts to eradicate polio did not actually start until 1988. Since 1988, polio cases have dropped 99%, however, the disease is still present today and unfortunately is still not eradicated. In fact, in September of this year the Phillipines declared a polio outbreak.

I think every time you do the Everybody Loves Raymond voice impression, you mention 4 kids. They only had 3 kids. Where is this 4th kid coming from? This actually screwed me up at my local trivia night a few weeks ago, when they actually asked how many kids they had on the show. I answered 4 because I thought I remembered it from the podcast.

Missed Correction “A group of geese is called a gaggle on the ground, or in flight a skein or a wedge (not a gander).” - David “Homeboy on your latest podcast episode pulled a dirty trick with that whole "natural disaster" thing. Here is the Oxford definition: "a natural event such as a flood, earthquake, or hurricane that causes great damage or loss of life." It is universally known that the phrase refers specifically to extreme weather events events and ocean/seismic activity. He HAD to use that phrase to keep his trivia question difficult enough to not give away that the answer was a disease, but in my opinion it just indicates that the question should be framed a different way. Using the term "natural disaster" is deceiving, and completely incorrect according to popular use! I call bullshit.” - Tim, MN Round Two CULINARY ARTS - In French, what cooking term means “to slice into thin strips,” usually leafy greens?

Rate My Question POKEMON - The following text is the Pokedex entry for what Pokemon? “This Pokemon uses a mysterious power. When it does so, this Pokémon generates brain waves that are supposedly only seen in sleepers. This discovery spurred controversy among scholars.” Final Questions NURSING - In medical nursing lingo, what does CTD stand for?

Also I’m pretty sure this is why Pride is usually celebrated in June. Also, the Miracle on ice in the 1980 Olympics took place in Lake Placid NY. The US boycotted the summer Olympics that same year which were in Moscow because of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

KUCI: Get the Funk Out

KUCI: Get the Funk Out

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 15, 2017


In recent years there has been an increasing focus in popular culture on the rising numbers of boys seeming to be at loose ends in their early adulthood - with fewer attending college, pursuing work away from home, or starting families of their own. And while there are several factors contributing to this “crisis of men,” many nod to a culture that does not support the ideals that encourage boys to flourish and grow into motivated, courageous and kind adults. Recognizing this negative effect that our culture has on boys, popular educator Heather Haupt sought a way to encourage her own three sons to develop strong character. Now, in KNIGHTS IN TRAINING: Ten Principles for Raising Honorable, Courageous, and Compassionate Boys, she shares how to instill essential values in boys by captivating their imaginations and appealing to their love of adventure. Based on the Knights’ Code of Chivalry as depicted in the French epic Song of Roland, she offers ten character-building codes that teach boys the importance of respecting women, pursuing excellence, and standing against injustice. Heather Haupt discusses: · Creating a micro-culture that mirrors their values · Mindful media consumption (i.e. why you don’t want your sons watching Frozen!) · Why play weapons are a good thing, and how rules for engagement teaches boys courtesy · Discouraging potty humor - even if it promotes reading · Learning the art of disagreeing. KNIGHTS IN TRAINING is an invaluable source for parents searching for a countercultural way to ensure that their sons grow up independent, self-sufficient, and fulfilled.
