MeatEater Trivia is a bonus podcast we drop a few times a month on the MeatEater Podcast feed. This is trivia you’re not going to find in Trivial Pursuit or Jeopardy, because these questions are born out of our four departments: hunting, fishing, conservation, and cooking. I’m the show’s creator and host, Spencer Neuharth.
Episode 323: Game On, Suckers! MeatEater Trivia VI just published today. It features Steve Rinella, Janis Putelis, Brody Henderson, Seth Morris, Chester Floyd, Mike Kmon, and Brent West competing for the title of trivia champion. And, like always, the winner gets to choose which conservation organization MeatEater will donate $500 to on their behalf.
Here are the 10 questions from this week’s show. If you want to play along and find out the answers, then make sure you listen to the latest episode of MeatEater Trivia.
