  • Healthy Foods Trivia

    Another shorter Mostly Trivial. We'll still do the standard version

  • This is interesting.

    A Spanish breed of pig called the Iberico, possesses, naturally, omega-3 fatty acids. This is the only pig known to naturally possess omega-3. Also, quite recently at the University of Missouri, 5 cloned and modified pigs were produced with their muscle tissue stacked with omega-3 fatty acids. These modified pigs abide at the University of Missouri and are kept in very nice surroundings. There is little likelihood of any one them ever finding their way to our table. We love piggies at Mostly Trivial, so we dont eat them!

    It's Raining Cats and Dogs

    Who Doesn't Dig Animals?

  • Cats are Historic

    Recently the cat was commonly believed to have been domesticated in ancient Egypt, [thats what I thoughtas well!] where it was a cult animal. I think some people worship their cats even now :-)

    A 2007 study found that the lines of descent of all house cats probably run through as few as five self-domesticating African Wildcats around 8000 BC, in the Near East. Now THATS a long time ago!

  • Dogs are Furry

    Domestic dogs have a coat, a layer that covers its body. A dog coat may be a double coat, made up of a soft undercoat and a coarse topcoat. Unlike the wolf, some dogs may instead have just a single coat. Dogs with a double coat, are adapted to survive in colder temperatures, and tend to originate from colder climates. I need 2 coats when it 10 below here in St. Paul!

    Country Diva Trivia

    This is another new shorter of Mostly Trivial. We'll still do the standard version.

  • We just want to TRY and get out more shows!

    Another form of the country music style is known as western-country. While honky-tonks were filled with its fans, theatres were filled with fans of the cowboy songs made popular, again, in Texas and Oklahoma. The often-romanticized life of the cowboy, heroic but lonely, drifting, fit in perfectly with this style of music that took its sound from the hills of Tennessee and the bayous of Louisiana.

    Gemstone Trivia part II

    Another Crystal Clear Show, except a mistake corrected in the questions! ;-( [now fixed]

    More Diamond Trivia

  • Diamonds were worn by aristocratic families to ward off the plague during the Middle Ages. The poorest people always died first, since they lived closer to the docks, where the ships often brought the plague from other countries. The rich had an idea that since the poor went first, that displaying their wealth (diamonds) would keep them from infection. This just goes to show how naive people were about what really caused the plague, kinda like religeon does.

    A Glowing Review

    Thanks to Ralph from the Unmutual.Blogspot post

    http://the-unmutual.blogspot.com/2008/12/podcast-review-mostly-trivial.html

  • Trivia should be fun -- and not many people make it as much fun as Johnee Bee, host of the "Mostly Trivial" podcast. The show is a nice balance of frantic silliness and straight-forward common sense.

    The calm, even-voiced Johnee Bee hosts the quiz. He asks the questions, provides the answers and gives additional information about the subject. Introducing the show is Mr. Category Guy, whose deep, gravelly electronically altered tones don't quite disguise the fact that he's also Johnee Bee. And the same is true of Johnee's able assistant, Robot Boy, who speaks in a higher and more artificial-sounding voice.

    The trivia's interesting enough; it's usually about things that a reasonably well-rounded person might know. But it's the production values that really make this podcast.

    I don't know who Johnee Bee is, but he has to have a background in major market radio. His characters are deftly drawn, and with a few simple sound effects, he can paint an audio picture of Mr. Category Guy having one too many in his sound booth, or Robot Boy extending his hydraulic arm to give Johnee Bee the list of questions. Although all three voices are done by the same person, the conversations flow naturally, and the comic timing is impeccable -- these are mad editing skills at work!

    And the podcast is peppered with all kinds of crazy and non-sequitur quotes and sound effects. Snippets from classic films, TV shows, and cartoons pepper the podcast, providing a counterpoint -- and sometimes humorous commentary -- to Johnee Bee's simple, straightforward delivery.

    The choice of music is also brilliant. Johnee Bee uses the strange musical stylings of Coconut Monkeyrocket, which provide a Carl Stalling-like soundtrack to the proceedings (if Stalling was more like Spike Jones, that is).

    I thoroughly enjoy this little six to eight-minute podcast, and only wish it came out more often. But I can hear the amount of production work Johnee Bee puts into each episode, and I know that probably won't happen without a bigger payday.

    My suggestion? Syndicate it. One of the reasons I'm moving away from radio is the dull, uninspired "morning trivia" segments on some of my local stations. If "Mostly Trivial" was available as a segment radio stations could just drop in, then I think the show would be a much bigger hit than it is, and Johnee Bee might become as famous as Dan Orkin's "Chickenman" -- and for much the same reason.

    - Ralph

    Swimming Pool Trivia

     

    Mostly Trivial makes a BIG splash

     

     

     

    One of the most haunted sections of the ship the RMS Queen Mary is the former First Class Swimming Pool.

     

  •  

    The Second longest swimming pool is the Orthlieb Pool in Casablanca, Morocco. The pool is 480 meters or 1,574 feet long and 75 meters or 246 feet wide. The Orthlieb Pool is filled with sea water and covers 8.9 acres.

     

  •  

     

    Nemo 33 is a recreational diving center in Brussels, Belgium that is home to the world's deepest swimming pool. The pool has two large flat-bottomed areas at depth levels of 16 ft and 32 ft, and a large circular pit descending to a depth of 108 ft

    Los Alamos continued to be the most secret town in the U.S. until well after the Cold War. Dugway is the U.S. Army chemical weapons test range in Utah. Alamogordo was the site of the first nuclear explosion and White Sands was a missile testing area close by.
