Speaker 1 00:00:03 Happy you picked Strawberries Day. Speaker 2 00:00:04 I'm Speaker 1 00:00:05 Ronnie. And I'm Brian. And this is Snorkeling with Narwhals. Speaker 2 00:00:11 Today on Snorkeling with Narwhals, we have a special announcement that is probably going to overwhelm you and not be that important, but stick around and we will definitely share it with Speaker 1 00:00:20 You. It's gonna be DC talk levels of disappointment for anyone who would get that, but stay tuned. Speaker 2 00:00:28 And after the, uh, and before that, sorry. We are going to be playing another game we do where we are going to test Brian's ability to not know things, Speaker 1 00:00:38 Which, if you recall from our last quiz, what was that one? The animal Speaker 2 00:00:42 Attacks. The animal attacks. And he got zero, correct? Speaker 1 00:00:45 Yeah, I got like two of 'em. Oh, but I got a great, he failed. Majority of them wrong. Yes. So hopefully this one I'll do a lot better. I know what the topic is, so I think I will, especially because I guessed at two of the ones you were looking at before you even like gave me any intro. Speaker 2 00:01:02 And by that he means he cheated while I was making the Speaker 1 00:01:04 Quiz. Anyway, we should probably tell you what said to quiz is. Speaker 2 00:01:08 Well, we'll do that once we transition. Speaker 1 00:01:10 Yeah. Transition. Now, Speaker 0 00:01:16 Welcome Speaker 2 00:01:16 Back. Before we get started with the game, I want to point out Brian's lovely shirt that he chose to wear today. If you don't know what animal it is, you should not be Speaker 1 00:01:25 Watching this. This is a narwhal and this is the first I own five shirts with narwhals on them, but this is the first time I've ever actually worn one on here. It's not, I think it's the second. Oh, well, we'll have to go back and look at the friend. Speaker 2 00:01:38 Friend doesn't know anything which he will prove when he plays today's game. All right, so for today's game, there is a prize which will be revealed later if I get it. If you get it Speaker 1 00:01:47 When I get Speaker 2 00:01:48 It. Actually, you know what I'm gonna tell you? Just you. Oh, I'm going to make you, I have your very own movie character costume that you can wear for Halloween this year. Speaker 1 00:01:58 I hope it's not like Woody from Toy Story. It's, it's not My cousin already got me that for Speaker 2 00:02:02 Christmas. That's a little creepy. But anyways, let's move on to the game. Alright, so for today's game, keeping with the idea of the prize. Yeah. I'm going to give you two characters from two separate movies and you have to tell me which actor played said roles. Speaker 1 00:02:20 Okay. Which we did a couple practice ones. Speaker 2 00:02:23 We did a couple practice Ones text. So he kind of gets to understand you guys can play at home. So I will give you two different characters. Like I will say, what was the practice one? Speaker 1 00:02:32 It was, uh, like a space pirate and Speaker 2 00:02:34 A space. A space Renegade. Speaker 1 00:02:36 Right. And Earth Fugitive. Speaker 2 00:02:37 And an Earth Fugitive. And the answer was Harrison Fors from The Fugitive and from Star Speaker 1 00:02:43 Wars. You probably shouldn't have used Fugitive in the Clue though. Speaker 2 00:02:45 Well, I was trying to make that one pretty easy. All right, and Speaker 1 00:02:48 Straightforward. All right, let's do Speaker 2 00:02:49 This. Ready? All right. So we're gonna try to start out easy and we'll see how it goes. So she played, so your hand, your first hand is she played an X man and a player in a future dystopian death game Speaker 1 00:03:04 Show. It's Jennifer Lawrence. Speaker 2 00:03:05 There are were choices, but yes, it is Jennifer Lawrence. You could have also picked Holly Berry, Jennifer Garner, or Cameron Diaz. But Speaker 1 00:03:13 It is neither of the last two were X-Men. Speaker 2 00:03:17 Jennifer Lawrence. Correct. Please keep your answers until I've read all the names for at least for the people playing Speaker 1 00:03:22 At home, but I want to be impressive. <laugh>. All right.

Speaker 1 00:04:54 Unrealistic Zomy movie, by the way, Speaker 2 00:04:56 That's a topic for another Speaker 1 00:04:57 Day because everything does not injure or hurt Brad Pitt, and it all happens around him.
