Tim Wildmon, Ed Vitagliano, and JJ Jasper welcome first-time callers to the Labor Day weekend edition of Trivia Friday. Ed kicks things off with questions about the only woman to appear on a U.S. Treasury note, the gospel tracing Jesus all the way back to Adam, and whether cashews share a plant family with poison ivy. JJ asks which of the five senses is fastest, which animal lives almost exclusively on eucalyptus leaves, and whether the Detroit Tigers really reached a pre-agreement with a twelve-year-old prospect for a four-million-dollar signing bonus. Tim challenges listeners to name the land mammal with the longest lifespan after humans, explain what causes electricity, and identify the character Lee Majors played on The Six Million Dollar Man. Listeners from Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Mississippi call in to answer and stump the panel. Janet correctly confirms the Tigers deal and asks how many years passed between the tin can and the can opener. Carlin guesses Matthew for the gospel lineage but stumps the hosts with twin killers and sex killers, the original Roman names for July and August. Lisa correctly names elephants and surprises everyone with the scarecrow's handgun from the original Wizard of Oz book. Chris identifies cashews as poison ivy relatives and asks what Ken Griffey Jr., Tom Seaver, Sparky Anderson, and Babe Ruth have in common. Kelly identifies Colonel Steve Austin before the final break. The hour includes plenty of donut hole banter, a lumberjack joke about September, and JJ's story about a 911 call on Eucalyptus Street
