Host: All right, welcome back, everybody, to Trivia Friday on American Family Radio. Thanks for listening to AFR. Tim Wildmon and Jonathan are here.
Host: By the way, we have several years of Trivia Friday shows cataloged, and you can listen to them anytime at afr.net. Just go to afr.net, click on the Trivia Friday banner, and pull up the podcasts. I do not know how far back we go.
Jonathan: People like to listen to those when they travel. It helps pass the time, and it is a lot of fun.
Host: It helps educate them.
Jonathan: It is “educate, educate, educate.”
Host: That is what we do here on Trivia Friday on American Family Radio. Now, let us repeat our questions, and then we will go back to the phones.
Host: Here is the hard one: There are four state capitals that do not have an interstate highway. Can you name them? The hint is that one of them is not Honolulu.
Jonathan: If somebody gets that, they deserve a T-shirt. I will buy one and send it to them.
Host: How many movies did John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart star in together? The answer is not one or two. Those have already been tried.
Jonathan: And the third one is, what is the name of a group of alligators? I did not even know alligators ran in groups.
Host: They do.
Jonathan: It is not a pack.
Host: It is not a pride. That is a group of lions.
Jonathan: I have been out to eat with a pack of alligators before. They have alligator arms. They do not want to pay for anything.
Host: Have you seen that commercial?
Jonathan: Yes, the alligator says, “Here, let me pay for that,” but he has those little short arms. They do not really want to pay.
Host: Are they arms or legs?
Jonathan: They are legs on an alligator. They have four legs. They do not even have arms, right?
Host: That is right.
Jonathan: But you know how cartoons are.
Host: Artificial intelligence, I guess.
Jonathan: No, no. Go ahead.
Jonathan: All right, here are my three questions. First, what is the name of the elderly lady who sold Barney Fife his first car on The Andy Griffith Show?
Jonathan: Second, who is the only person to hold the offices of both president and chief justice of the Supreme Court? It is not John Adams.
Jonathan: Last question, what feature on the Plymouth Road Runner distinguishes it from other muscle cars?
Host: I have one question left. The Great Smoky Mountains are found in East Tennessee, western North Carolina, and northern Georgia. Is that true or false? There is your American geography question.
Jonathan: All right. We are going to go to Kansas, where Michael is on the line. Michael, welcome to Trivia Friday.
Caller: I want to answer the question about alligators.
Host: Go ahead.
Caller: What is the name of a group of alligators?
Host: That is right.
Caller: You are a preacher, and I used that in the introduction of a sermon. I was talking about a group of Christians, a church, or an assembly, and then I named some groups. When I got to what a group of alligators is called and said “congregation,” they just watched me. I said, “I have to bring that one to Trivia Friday.”
Host: A congregation of alligators.
Jonathan: I never knew that.
Host: Michael, do you have a question for us?
Caller: You guys were talking about Batman. What do you know about a supervillain movie coming out with a backstory similar to the Joker?
Host: There is a new movie coming out with a backstory about Batman?
Caller: Yes. What is the name of it?
Jonathan: I did not know there was one.
Host: He is the superhero aficionado. Whatever you call it.
Jonathan: Bam, bam.
Host: I think Bam-Bam was in The Flintstones.
Jonathan: Bam, pow. Where is Bam-Bam?
Host: When Batman puts on his brakes, do you not think his feet hurt?
Jonathan: You know that was not real, right?
Host: We do not know the answer to this question, Michael.
Jonathan: Clayface.
Host: Clayface. Wow. Does that have anything to do with it?
Caller: I do not know his backstory, but he is similar to Sandman in Marvel.
Host: I guess they had to get something similar to compete.
Jonathan: I guess so.
Host: That is it, Michael. It was great to hear from you there in the Sunflower State of Kansas.
Jonathan: Michael calls in, and who is up next? We are going to go to Texas, where Orbin is calling. Orbin, welcome to Trivia Friday.
Caller: It is good to hear from you guys. I think I will ask you all a question.
Host: Go right ahead.
Jonathan: You are not going to play an instrument for us, are you, Orbin?
Caller: I can. Are you ready?
Host: We need an instrument.
Jonathan: That sounds like a turkey.
Host: What is that?
Jonathan: That is a turkey. You are a turkey hunter, are you not?
Caller: I thought you had stopped doing that. I was there for a calling program a while back, and I tried to call in, but it was not my turn.
Host: Are you using a turkey call?
Jonathan: When is turkey season?
Host: It is in the spring.
Jonathan: So it is a long way away.
Host: That is a turkey call.
Jonathan: I have called turkeys with that call before, too, John. I have called them up with that turkey call.
Host: Really? Was it kind of high-pitched for a turkey?
Jonathan: It sounded pretty good.
Host: You had to practice and practice and practice on it.
Jonathan: That is why I do not turkey hunt. I do not have a lot of desire to practice with the turkey call.
Host: Snakes are usually out there during turkey season, too.
Jonathan: Wesley, my son, loves to turkey hunt.
Host: All right, Orbin, go ahead and ask your question.
Caller: We have been doing sound effects here, and I have a question. Do you want me to give you an old-time radio question that you might know the answer to, or do you want me to give you a sound-effects question pertaining to a cowbell?
Host: Old-time radio. Are you talking about the 1930s and 1940s?
Caller: Yes, sir.
Host: Go ahead with that. I was not alive then, but I know a little bit about that era.
Caller: My mother told me that I went to Alaska for 20 years because I used to listen to an old radio drama as a child. I am going to ask you the name of the program, if you can guess it. I will give you the prologue.
Host: Give us a hint and the prologue.
Caller: It started with dogs barking and the wind blowing. “Across the windswept, snow-covered reaches of the wild Northwest, the challenge of the Yukon. Back to the days of Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog, Yukon King, in his pursuit of lawbreakers. Mush on, you Huskies!” What was the name of that program?
Jonathan: You did that great, man. That was awesome. You sound like the real thing.
Host: You would not think there would be that many outlaws roaming Alaska in the wild. Who were they trying to escape from? What bank did they rob?
Caller: That radio show inspired me to live 20 years in Alaska.
Host: You went to Alaska for a two-week vacation and spent 20 years there because of that radio program?
Caller: My mother told me that was the reason.
Host: That shows you what kind of radio it was.
Jonathan: That is our radio. It is a great story.
Host: I do not know the answer to that. The introduction sounds very familiar, but I do not know the name.
Caller: It was called The Adventures of Sergeant Preston of the Yukon.
Host: Sergeant Preston. I thought Yukon was the name of the show.
Caller: Sergeant Preston of the Yukon. You can still find it on YouTube. They even made it into a television series, but I was listening to it before television.
Host: Radio dramas were very popular in the 1930s and 1940s.
Jonathan: Even into the 1950s. During World War II, people gathered around and listened to President Roosevelt and his fireside chats. They listened to radio dramas, too. I have heard of The Lone Ranger, but I never heard that one.
Host: All right, brother Orbin, thank you so much for calling in from Texas. That was a great rendition. That wind blowing was something else.
Jonathan: You are listening to Trivia Friday on American Family Radio, also known as Learning University. Tim Wildmon and Jonathan are here, and we will go back to the phones. Who is next?
Host: We are going to go to Indiana, where Lana is calling. Lana, welcome to Trivia Friday.
Caller: I am surprised I finally got through.
Host: Welcome, Lana. We thank you for your persistence.
Jonathan: It took me 84 years to get through.
Host: Are you 84, Jonathan?
Jonathan: I sure am.
Host: We are honored to have you with us. Do you remember radio drama shows?
Caller: Oh, yes. I listened to The Lone Ranger and Tarzan.
Host: Tarzan had a radio show?
Caller: Yes.
Jonathan: I watched Tarzan on Saturday afternoons, but that was not radio. How do you do a radio show about a man in the jungle who does not talk?
Caller: He talked on this one.
Host: He did?
Caller: Yes. That is where I first learned how to do the Tarzan yell.
Jonathan: Then Carol Burnett did it after you. Do you remember Carol Burnett?
Host: I do. She could really bellow.
Jonathan: Lana, we are honored to have you. You may be the oldest person on the show today. I am not sure how old some of the other callers are.
Host: You are 84. Are you, Jonathan?
Jonathan: I am not there yet. I hope to make it, but I am not there yet.
Host: Lana, do you want to ask a question, answer one, or both?
Caller: I was going to do both, but my question got answered. I do have a question for you.
Host: Go ahead.
Caller: How many Bethlehems are there in the United States?
Host: I know there is Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
Jonathan: I think there is one in New York.
Host: Bethlehem, New York. Are we talking about towns and communities?
Jonathan: I am going to say there are 20. That would be a very popular name for a town.
Host: I agree with you. How many are there? Are we close?
Caller: Thirty-six.
Host: A lot of places use biblical names for towns and communities, so that does not surprise me.
Caller: I came across this in an archaeology magazine. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, there are 36 populated places named Bethlehem within the United States, spread among 20 states. That number includes big towns as well as small, unincorporated communities, such as the township in Clark County, Indiana.
Caller: The total number of places increases to 52 if we include composite names such as Little Bethlehem.
Host: Do you live near Bethlehem, Indiana?
Caller: No, sir. I live in a little village called Pittsburgh. We are too small to even have a post office. If you draw a line between Chicago and Indianapolis and go halfway, that is approximately where our little town is located.
Host: There are probably not even 100 people there.
Caller: That is right.
Jonathan: It is witness protection.
Host: They cruise through and do health checks.
Jonathan: Did you have another question for us, Lana?
Caller: That was it.
Host: Well, Lana, since you are 84 and our oldest caller today, we are going to send you a Learning University T-shirt. Is that okay with you?
Caller: Oh, fantastic.
Host: Just hold on. Patty is going to ask for your address, and we will get it in the mail to you.
Caller: I love those Southern accents.
Jonathan: You got a dose of them today.
Host: You can understand them, though.
Jonathan: That is good. I try to be the interpreter for Tim and Jonathan because they need one.
Host: Thank you, Lana. We appreciate hearing from you in the Hoosier State of Indiana.
Jonathan: Let us repeat our questions for the last time today. There are four state capitals that do not have an interstate highway. Can you name one of them? We are dumbing it down.
Host: How many movies did John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart star in together? It is not one and it is not two.
Jonathan: What was the name of the elderly lady who sold Barney Fife his first car on The Andy Griffith Show?
Host: The second question is, who was the only person to hold the offices of both president and chief justice of the Supreme Court?
Jonathan: The last question is, what feature on the Plymouth Road Runner distinguishes it from other muscle cars?
Host: My last question is, the Great Smoky Mountains are found in East Tennessee, western North Carolina, and northern Georgia. Is that true or false?
Jonathan: It is a little American geography question for you. We have about six and a half minutes left on Learning University today. Who is next?
Host: We are going to go to Mississippi, where Anas is calling. Anas, welcome to Trivia Friday.
Caller: Thank you.
Host: Where are you calling from?
Caller: Water Valley.
Host: That is about an hour from us here.
Caller: That is right. They have the Watermelon Festival.
Host: They do. Check that out. Anas, do you want to ask a question, answer one, or both?
Caller: I want to answer the question about the lady who sold Barney the car.
Jonathan: All right, here is the question. What was the name of the elderly lady who sold Barney Fife his first car?
Caller: Mrs. Leach.
Jonathan: That is right. Good job, Anas. How did you know that?
Caller: I just like The Andy Griffith Show. I remember that episode, and the scene of him driving in it is one of my favorites.
Host: That is a great episode.
Caller: I have a question. On The Andy Griffith Show, what were the names of the three women convicts?
Host: Were they all on one show?
Caller: Yes.
Jonathan: They escaped, and Barney and Floyd were looking for them.
Host: I remember the episode, but I do not remember their names.
Caller: Maude, Naomi, and Sally.
Host: Maude. Naomi and Sally.
Jonathan: Those are names from yesteryear. There are a lot of names that were very popular in the early part of the twentieth century, even into the 1970s, that disappeared. Some of them have come back, but you do not hear many Naomis anymore.
Host: Anas, how old are you?
Caller: I am 84.
Host: The last caller was 84, too. Our friend from Indiana. What was her name?
Jonathan: Lana.
Host: We are going to send you a T-shirt, too, Anas. Is that okay?
Caller: I appreciate that. I was not going to say my age in advance because I did not want you to say that.
Host: We would not have thought that.
Jonathan: We are going to send somebody down there to verify it.
Host: We will send you a Learning University T-shirt in the mail. You can drive over here and get it if you want to. Water Valley is about an hour from our studios.
Host: We appreciate you calling in, and thanks for listening. We will get that T-shirt in the mail.
Jonathan: It has to go through the Memphis post office, though, so it will be 2027 before it gets there.
Host: It will be there in January.
Jonathan: I am just kidding. Thank you, Anas. It is good to hear from you.
Host: All right, fellows, we are going to have to answer the questions that have heretofore gone unanswered. We have not used that word today.
Jonathan: Heretofore is a word that needs to be brought back into our common, everyday vernacular.
Host: It is made up of three words.
Jonathan: Here to four.
Host: The four state capitals that do not have an interstate highway are Juneau, Alaska; Jefferson City, Missouri; Dover, Delaware; and Pierre, South Dakota. They do not have an interstate. All the others do.
Jonathan: How many movies did John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart star in together?
Host: It is three.
Jonathan: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, The Shootist, and How the West Was Won.
Host: Who was the only person to hold the offices of president and chief justice?
Jonathan: William Howard Taft.
Host: The Plymouth Road Runner is distinguished from other muscle cars by its iconic “beep, beep” horn.
Jonathan: The Great Smoky Mountains are found in East Tennessee, western North Carolina, and northern Georgia. Is that true or false?
Host: I think it is false.
Jonathan: It is false. The Great Smoky Mountains are in East Tennessee and western North Carolina, not Georgia.
Host: Even though that mountain chain comes down, the Great Smoky Mountains are in Tennessee and North Carolina. We hope you have a wonderful weekend. Thanks for listening to Trivia Friday, and we will see you on Monday.
Host: All right, welcome back, everybody, to Trivia Friday on American Family Radio. Thanks for listening to AFR. Tim Wildmon and Jonathan are here.

Jonathan: William Howard Taft.
Host: The Plymouth Road Runner is distinguished from other muscle cars by its iconic “beep, beep” horn.
Jonathan: The Great Smoky Mountains are found in East Tennessee, western North Carolina, and northern Georgia. Is that true or false?
Host: I think it is false.
Jonathan: It is false. The Great Smoky Mountains are in East Tennessee and western North Carolina, not Georgia.
Host: Even though that mountain chain comes down, the Great Smoky Mountains are in Tennessee and North Carolina. We hope you have a wonderful weekend. Thanks for listening to Trivia Friday, and we will see you on Monday.
Tim Bert and Jonathan welcome callers from across the country for a fun round of Trivia Friday on American Family Radio. Questions cover state capitals without interstate highways, John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart films, alligators, the Andy Griffith Show, and the Plymouth Roadrunner.
Callers also share a turkey call and an old-time radio rendition of Sergeant Preston of the Yukon. The hosts discuss radio dramas, towns named Bethlehem, and the Great Smoky Mountains before revealing the answers and sending Learning University T-shirts to two callers.
