Shownotes Transcript

Hi everyone, I'm Encore Jane, the founder of Built, and it is time to take today's quiz. This is the quiz. History, pop culture, science, sports, civics. How much do you know? Let's find out.

- Florida. - Is it Texas?

Easy. That one's Texas. Let's get a little bit harder here. Question number two. John Adams was elected as a Federalist. Thomas Jefferson was elected as a Democratic Republican. What was George Washington's political party? Independent. Maybe a Federalist. Kind of a trick question. He didn't have one.

How are we doing so far? You ready? On to question three. Things get a little bit trickier now. Beginning his career with the formation of Band Chic, this guitar player has had hits with such artists as David Bowie, Daft Punk, Madonna, and Pharrell Williams. What's his name? Like John Lennon.

Noah Cyrus. Elton John. That would be Nile Rodgers. Did you get that one right? All right, even harder now. On to question four. Cleopatra's needles are ancient obelisks created in Egypt anywhere from 11 to 16 B.C. They stood in Cairo and Alexandria for centuries. In what two cities do they currently stand? Like L.A. and Moscow.

London and Paris. New York City and Rome. The right answer is New York City and London. Play, share, listen. You ready? Question five is next.

Somehow they won't go away no matter what I do, no matter how incredibly awful and mean I am to them. But I don't mind doing this work. In fact, if I'm being honest, I think it's God's work. So make sure y'all follow me on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts for new episodes every Wednesday. And now for the final question of the day. Question five. Water, water. Everywhere but not a drop to drink. Is a line from what poem? I don't know. I can't name a poem. No idea.

Robert Frost or something. I don't know. And the correct answer to the final question of the day is Rime of the Ancient Mariner. How'd you do, everybody? Hopefully you got all five right, but either way, you can try again tomorrow. And if you missed any along the way, you can always find more quizzes at thequiz.fox and then come back here to see how you did. I'm Uncle Jane, and thank you for taking the quiz.
