Shownotes Transcript

Hi everyone, I'm CJ Papa, 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. Let's find out.

Five days a week, it's five questions in less than five minutes. We ask people on the streets of New York City to play along. Let's see how you do. Question one. E equals MC squared is Albert Einstein's theory of relativity. What does it stand for? I have no idea. Energy. That's right. Energy. Question two. According to a study by Sportico, of the top 50 highest paid athletes of all time, only one woman made the list. Who is she?

Only one woman? That's sad. The only thing that's coming to my head is Martina Navratilova. She's a tennis player. Serena Williams.

That's Serena Williams, the legend on the tennis court. So how you doing so far? Do you think you're doing great or not so good? Don't worry, we have more questions. On to question three. The late 1990s, early 2000s musical act Destiny's Child has sold more than 60 million records and won two Grammy Awards. The trio version of the group consisted of what three singers? Destiny's Child is Beyonce. I know that, but I don't remember the other two.

Scary Spice. Baby Spice. Angry Spice? Pass. The correct answer is Beyonce Knowles, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams. Question four. In 2021, in response to her Masters being sold, Taylor Swift announced she would begin re-releasing Taylor's version of her six studio albums to gain the rights to her old music. Whose big machine label group initially acquired the Masters to Swift's music?

Guys, this is hard when you're put on the spot. You can't think of the names. Taylor herself. All I can think of is Barry Williams. If you guessed Scooter Braun, you're correct. Play, share, listen. Question five is next.

Jeffrey Preston Jorgensen in Albuquerque, New Mexico on January 12th, 1960.

I have no idea. I could not answer that. Bryan Adams. I was going to say Eminem, but he's not. He was born after that. Freddie Mercury. Elton John. Close, but not quite. The answer is Jeff Bezos. Mr. Amazon himself.
