00:00You've waited as I have for more than two hours for this.
00:03It's time for the Point of News quiz here on Bliver This Weekend.
00:05Let me tell you what, David Gurra and Lisa Mateo,
00:07if you change the rules again to benefit David,
00:10I will walk off this set.
00:11There were some hardcore shenanigans.
00:14I always defer to Lisa.
00:15That's why I do so well at this game.
00:16It's my deference to the quiz master.
00:17Giving her cash under the table.
00:19What is happening?
00:20Lisa, I thought we had a girl code,
00:22and you just shattered that last week.
00:24Just my respect and adoration.
00:26It comes down to that bonus question, guys.
00:28Yes, it's important.
00:30Don't discount it.
00:31David, let's do it.
00:32We are talking about the Pointed News quiz, everybody.
00:35This is the part everybody's waiting for.
00:37Okay, so for those of you at home, you're like,
00:39what is this game?
00:40Okay, here's what happens.
00:42You can play it, too, at home if you want.
00:45Now, pay attention, because she might change the rules again.
00:47She might change the rules.
00:48There will be three categories, okay?
00:51David and Christina each have 30 chips in front of them.
00:53They will place their bets on each category
00:55depending on how they feel.
00:57So, you know, maybe they feel more confident about the first
00:59or maybe not so much the second.
01:01We'll see.
01:02Are you ready for your three categories?
01:04I'm born ready.
01:04Before you place your bets?
01:05Okay, here are your categories.
01:07First off is birds.
01:09Second is frequent flyers.
01:11And third is world records.
01:14Birds.
01:14Did you read a little story on birds this week?
01:16I've read no stories this week,
01:17which is part of my strategy going forward here.
01:20So are you going 30, you know, across the board?
01:22Ten across the board, because birds could be frequent flyers.
01:26I'm also going to read it.
01:27True.
01:28Lord help us from David Gurra puns today.
01:30I'm going to do ten across the board as well.
01:32All right.
01:33They have placed their bets.
01:34Let's go on to the first question.
01:35Here we go.
01:36Birds.
01:36Lisa.
01:37So, Chinese exports are surging for what type of bird
01:42used in a popular dish?
01:43Now, this is despite local demand kind of being soft.
01:46So, Chinese exports surging for what kind of bird
01:52used in a popular dish?
01:54What bird is used in a popular dish from China?
01:58Anytime now, David Gurra.
02:00He's writing.
02:01Duck.
02:01He even drew a picture for those of you who don't know.
02:04Duck is correct.
02:06Hey!
02:07Well, that's good for us.
02:08More specifically, Peking duck, but I'll give it to you.
02:10All right.
02:10Okay.
02:10There we go.
02:11I've never had Peking duck.
02:12Why is demand soft?
02:14I've tried it, and I'm not a big fan.
02:15I don't know.
02:16Crispy skin?
02:18Yeah.
02:19I don't know.
02:19I think it's hard to prepare.
02:20They have to do it, like, really well, is my understanding.
02:22But, yeah.
02:22It's a place very close to us here.
02:24So, why are the exports up?
02:27Get us back on track.
02:28I'm focusing.
02:29I'm focusing us back down.
02:30He's trying to get us back on track.
02:32Why are they soft?
02:33Soft in the country?
02:35Soft demand.
02:35They just don't.
02:36Soft demand in the country.
02:37They just don't.
02:37I see.
02:38They're over it.
02:38I mean, they have it all the time.
02:39Why?
02:39All right.
02:40Okay.
02:41So, they're trying to export it.
02:42Getting more popular, Ron.
02:43Trying to get more popular.
02:44Yes.
02:44All right.
02:45Okay.
02:45There we go.
02:45We're moving on to frequent flyers.
02:47I feel like my energy is low here.
02:48I picked that up there.
02:49I'm just thinking about that duck.
02:51Ducks to frequent flyers.
02:52Here we go.
02:53What public figure has flown 57,000 miles since June in a Gulfstream private jet, enough
03:00to circle the equator twice?
03:03See, I know you know who it is, but what is the name?
03:06Of what?
03:06What is this person's name?
03:08Wait.
03:08Okay.
03:10That's cryptic.
03:12Now I'm confused.
03:14What public figure?
03:15What is his name?
03:16He's flown 57,000 miles since June in a Gulfstream private jet.
03:21What's been happening since June, I wonder?
03:23Yeah, I wonder, David Guerra.
03:25I don't know.
03:25A lot's been happening since June.
03:27I feel like this was mentioned on the show as well.
03:27Like a certain sport, maybe?
03:29You're paying attention to the chat in weeks beyond.
03:31I don't know.
03:32I'm ready.
03:33Are you?
03:33I don't know.
03:34Okay.
03:35He's excited.
03:35He's excited.
03:36Okay.
03:37Flip it.
03:37What do you got?
03:38Johnny Infantino.
03:39Yes!
03:41Taylor Swift.
03:41You went close.
03:42Hey.
03:43I wrote Taylor Swift, but then you said it was a guy.
03:45Yes, yes.
03:45So the president of FIFA.
03:47Yes.
03:48He is the one.
03:49I mean, you have the expanded World Cup, right?
03:51There's now 48 teams.
03:52Excuse my reach.
03:53Thanks.
03:53I get her chips.
03:54Okay.
03:55But listen to this travel schedule.
03:57Okay, June 26th, he went from Miami to Dallas, Dallas to Seattle, Seattle to Miami.
04:02Because he has to watch all these games, most of them.
04:04So it's a tough schedule.
04:05That's a plan, I should say.
04:05He's paying for it.
04:06No, no, no.
04:07It's a chartered plan.
04:08Yeah, the estimated cost for jet fuel, $350,000.
04:11That is a price tag.
04:12Quite the carbon footprint.
04:14Yeah, well.
04:14That is well.
04:16Number three, you ready?
04:17Number three.
04:18World records.
04:19Please continue my suffering, Lisa.
04:20Okay.
04:21I did this story, so I want to make sure you guys were listening when I did it.
04:24Oh, no.
04:24Runner, Josh Kerr.
04:25He broke the world record for fastest mile.
04:29Yes.
04:30Which Berkshire Hathaway-owned brand designed his shoe?
04:34Such a good question.
04:35Sneaker brand.
04:36Think about it.
04:36Sneaker brand.
04:37Running.
04:38The moral here is always listen to Lisa Mateo.
04:41Pay attention.
04:42I can't remember.
04:44We talked about the shoe.
04:45Pulling back the curtain.
04:46You know, we're always trying to get ready for the next segment.
04:48You know it.
04:48The director has to say, always, Tim Brooks.
04:52No, it's not.
04:53It's Brooks.
04:54Oh, Christina.
04:58Yes, he also was wearing a speed suit.
05:01Special suit.
05:02Yeah, special suit from Brooks, too.
05:02Incredible to see him shave those thousandths of a second off his tongue.
05:07Every second count.
05:08I don't know if, like, it's not swimming.
05:10I don't know how much the speed suit is going to make a difference.
05:12Well, three hours, 42 minutes, and 66 seconds.
05:15That's exactly what it took him.
05:16Maybe we can speed up this.
05:18All right, let's do it.
05:19Let's hit the bonus, because, Christina, you can win these back.
05:22Do I get all of my points back?
05:22You get all of them back.
05:24Okay.
05:24The bonus is New Jersey.
05:26Okay, that's the category.
05:29James Patton was sentenced to 20 months, 21 months in prison after he inflated sales
05:35from $20,000 to $100 million for what type of New Jersey small business?
05:42Think about it.
05:43New Jersey small business.
05:45What type of New Jersey small business?
05:48Okay.
05:49Interesting.
05:50All right.
05:50I really have no idea on this front.
05:52Oh, you don't.
05:52Oh.
05:53New Jersey.
05:53You wrote so fast.
05:54Okay.
05:54I wrote lawn care.
05:56I wrote a trash collection.
05:57No, it's deli.
06:00Deli.
06:00Yes.
06:01I remember the story.
06:04Next week.
06:05Nice try.
06:07Do you see that condescending?
06:08For our radio listeners, there's a very condescending, conciliatory pat on the back I just received.
06:14Always listen to Lisa Mateo.
06:16You can test your knowledge on all 10 questions.
06:18You can take the pointed news quiz at Bloomberg.com slash pointed.
06:20You can find it on the Bloomberg Business app.
06:22I hope it goes better for you, dear viewer, than it did for me.
06:25Oh, my gosh.
