The Quiz

Shownotes Transcript

Hi, everyone. I'm Jillian Michaels, and it's time to take the quiz. ♪

This is the quiz. History, pop culture, science, sports, civics. How much do you know? Let's find out. So five days a week, it's five questions in less than five minutes. And we ask people on the streets of New York City to play along. So let's see how you do. Question one. Which artist broke television records with his first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show on September 9th, 1965?

I might be wrong. Probably Elvis Presley. That's right. It's Mr. Elvis Presley. Elvis the Pelvis. Come on. I mean, I wasn't even born in 1956, but everybody knows this. If you got this wrong, shame on you. Question two. Who was the youngest person to hold the office of president of the United States? Is it Obama or JFK? JFK. JFK. Teddy Roosevelt.

That would be Theodore Roosevelt. Not going to lie, I didn't know that one. That's okay. It's all right. It's okay. On to question three. Who was the last Major League Baseball player to finish the season with a batting average higher than 400? Mickey Mantle? Sammy Sosa? I don't know. Ted Williams. The correct answer is Ted Williams.

I was going to say Aaron Judge. I'm wrong here too. Question four. What is the scientific name for white blood cells? I thought it was white blood cells. Lymphocytes? I have no idea. The correct answer is leukocytes. Play, share, and listen. Question five is next.

Question five.

On Black Monday, October 28th, 1929, the U.S. stock market crashed. Less than a month later, the Dow had lost almost half its value. And three years later, it was 89% below its peak. In what year did the Dow return to its pre-crash heights? 1937. 45. I'm going to say 42. 41. 41.

That would be 1954. All right, how'd you do on the quiz? I'm not three for five. Would you beat me? Either way, you can always try again tomorrow. Remember, take the quiz every weekday at thequiz.box. Then come back here to see how you did. I'm Jillian Michaels, and thank you for taking the quiz.
