How high could gas prices go? Your weekly news quiz, with Max Foster

[0:02] welcome to what do you know where you answer the questions on the week's biggest stories [0:06] betsy cnn's white house reporter of course we know where her expertise is dave jorgensen host [0:11] of local news international can you get more answers correct than these guys it's a test [0:17] for you but dave we're going to start with you gas prices they've been the big talking point [0:22] of course they've topped four dollars a gallon and some analysts say they could break records [0:26] soon the question is what was the all-time high for gas prices was it four dollars 82 cents per [0:32] gallon was it five dollars and two cents was it five dollars and 52 cents or was it 622 per gallon [0:40] wow okay so this is the average because i know in the there's like you know my sister's out in san [0:45] diego and it's like already five or six dollars there so unless she's lying to me which is [0:49] possible i i think this must be the average um yeah i i feel like 552 as in 50 50 52 [0:56] 52 i don't know if i was gonna say 52 states i know how many states there are um 52 cards in a [1:02] deck yeah let's do 552 that's the whole the full house that's probably i remember i remember going [1:07] that high like in when i was in california too so we're gonna go with that it is tricky because [1:12] uh betsy they do vary don't they between regions but what do you reckon is the average [1:16] i'm gonna go with the lowest number there that first choice 482. i just find it hard to fathom [1:22] gas having been any higher than five dollars i feel like i would have remembered [1:27] okay the answer was five dollars and two cents you're both wrong but dave arguably had the best [1:32] way of thinking there it was in 2022 wasn't actually that long ago after the war in ukraine [1:36] started let's see i wanted to ask you about this because we focused a lot on cnn about this as one [1:43] price increase but it's so central isn't it when we come up to the election because people vote on [1:48] these things certainly and the more time this goes on this war with iran the longer it is going to [1:57] continue doing it the better thing is that it's not just about the price increase but [2:01] it's about the way that they are able to pay at the pump and also every other aspect of their [2:05] life it is driving up prices across the board and the difference with the war in ukraine was that [2:11] that was sort of a short term situation for gas prices this has the potential to have much [2:18] bigger implications for uh gas prices for years betsy the other big story this week artemis ii the [2:24] launch i don't know if you're a space junkie but if you are you're in a good stead because taking [2:28] Space Center. How long though is the mission itself set to last? Is it seven [2:32] days, ten days, fourteen days, or is it 21 days? [2:36] Ooh, I watched an incredible graphic about this and the way it's gonna orbit [2:41] the Earth and then orbit the Moon and it's going to take ten days. That's my [2:46] answer. Dave? Well Betsy seems so confident, but I am gonna do my thinking [2:50] towards this and probably conclude ten days. So we're going to the Moon and back [2:54] again, which is sounds kind of romantic, you know. I love this show to the Moon [2:58] and back. Also one of my daughter's books that I read to her at night and I feel [3:03] like it would take about four or five days to get to the far side and back. So [3:07] yeah, we're going with ten days, but also like mostly again because Betsy seemed [3:10] extremely confident. She did, she just went straight in there. She got it right, of [3:13] course. This is gonna be the furthest away from Earth that humans have ever [3:17] traveled, which is the exciting part of this. Okay Dave, time for your video round. [3:22] Pete Hegseth saying there will be no suspension for the army pilots who flew [3:27] a helicopter by plane. [3:28] Dave [3:29] is asking where is the Kid Rock's mansion, which he calls the Southern White House. The [3:32] question is, where is the Southern White House? Alabama, Florida, Tennessee or Virginia? [3:38] Okay, I'm basing this off of a few things. I don't know if he's based in Nashville, [3:43] but Nashville is a great place to go for and Memphis for any kind of Kid Rock shenanigans [3:48] and other adjacent rock or otherwise. So I think it's got to be out in Tennessee there, [3:56] though that's not really super southern. So maybe he needs to relocate. [3:59] Maybe he needs to get the real Southern White House because that's geographically, I don't [4:04] know. I don't know if I agree with that, Mr. Rock, but yeah, I'll say Tennessee. [4:07] Mr. Rock, I like that. Betsy, what do you think? I mean, the video is pretty amazing, [4:11] isn't it? [4:12] Video's insane. I am also going to go with the bachelor and bachelorette capital of the [4:18] world, Nashville, Tennessee. Just looking at the landscape there, that's where my money [4:23] is. [4:24] You're both right, of course. It is Tennessee. Even Donald Trump said the pilots probably [4:28] shouldn't have done it. [4:29] They're not supposed to be playing games, right? [4:31] Betsy, time for your video round. This is the rendering for the proposed Donald Trump [4:37] presidential library after he leaves office, which feature though is not seen in this promotional [4:45] video. Is it a golden statue, a golden escalator, Air Force One, or a mixed martial arts ring? [4:53] As much as President Trump would love an MMA ring, and he is going to have one at the White [4:59] House celebrating the country's 250th anniversary, that is the answer. [5:04] Dave, are you confident? [5:06] Well, I want to believe Betsy, but I also like the sort of, you know, the 2015 coming [5:12] back to a golden escalator, you know, the sort of bookend on that story. We'll go with [5:17] the golden escalator. [5:18] Okay, you're wrong. Betsy's right. The MMA ring. The site they've chosen is Miami, isn't [5:25] it, Betsy? Fascinating. [5:26] Yeah, and it's really a remarkable set of Easter eggs in that, you know, it's a [5:30] set of Easter eggs in that AI video of Trump-associated moments. As you mentioned, that golden statue [5:34] of the president pumping his fist like that moment in Butler. It's got the golden escalator. [5:39] He came down back in 2015. Other nods to his career. Obviously, it's also a skyscraper. [5:45] Presidential libraries are usually just museums, places where archives are housed. This is [5:50] going to highlight the president's time as a real estate developer. [5:53] Well, he's never low key, is he, Dave? [5:55] I don't know if you got my live reaction. That was my first time seeing that. It's the [5:59] closest we've gotten to the all-star. [6:00] Alternate timeline in Back to the Future Part Two. It looks like Biff Tower. So, cool. [6:06] Dave, time for your pitch around. Staying in Florida, this is Palm Beach International [6:12] Airport. Seemed to be renamed. What new airport code, though, has the Department of Transportation [6:18] ordered it be called? Is it USA, TIA, DJT, or FLA? [6:25] Okay. It's got to be DJT. I mean, I've seen that. [6:31] Yeah, it's just got to be. USA would, maybe 10 years ago, I would have said USA. I feel [6:36] like that was, you know, everyone would always chant USA, especially at Republican conventions, [6:41] but I think it's got to be DJT. [6:42] It is. The airport being renamed as Trump International Airport. One of the roads leading [6:48] to it has already been renamed Donald J. Trump Boulevard. [6:51] When I wrote the story about Southern Boulevard in West Palm Beach, Florida, connecting the [6:56] airport to his Mar-a-Lago club, it was actually interesting. We learned that there's also [7:01] a Barack Obama highway just about 20 miles south. So, we're growing up with all of it. [7:08] Celine Dion now. Betsy, for you. She's announcing her return to the stage on Instagram. But [7:13] which city will be hosting her only tour dates? Is it Paris, Las Vegas, Montreal, or London? [7:21] You know, could be any of these, couldn't it? Because she's got relationships with all [7:24] of them. [7:25] Yeah, exactly. I think that it is going to [7:27] be Paris for the reason that there had been these really cool signage of her songs popping [7:34] up across the city over the past few days. Super interesting. Also, where she made her [7:39] big comeback at the Olympics a couple of years ago. [7:41] I mean, Betsy was literally made for this game. The answer was Paris. [7:45] Yeah, and this is a big comeback for her. She's suffered from this really debilitating [7:50] disease. And I think at some point, I watched that documentary, it was unclear if she was [7:54] ever going to perform again. So, this is going to be a really big moment. [7:57] It really is. [7:58] Okay, Dave, time for your headline round. Give us the missing word from this CNN headline. [8:03] The toughest new sport in Japan is street racing blank. Is it office chairs? Is it e-scooters? [8:10] Is it shopping carts? Or is it pogo sticks? So obvious. [8:14] Back in the day, Max, which was the 90s, I used to try to pogo stick to my friend's house [8:19] and it was very exhausting, but I got pretty good at that. I don't know if that's what [8:22] they're doing, but I will say after a block of pogo sticking, it's exhausting. So, I'm [8:25] going to say no to that. I feel like I picked the wrong one. I'm going to say no to that. [8:26] I feel like I picked the wrong one. I feel like I picked the wrong one. I feel like I picked [8:27] this up in some, I don't know where online, but I'm in an office chair. So, I'm going to [8:33] go with office chair. That feels right to me and also would be not that easy, but fun. [8:38] Dave is right. Finally, he's getting office chairs right. These races take place in 10 [8:42] cities across Japan. The winner gets 90 kilos of rice. What a prize. [8:48] That's great. The arm is breaking off this thing. So, I'm hoping that by getting that [8:51] question right, I get my own office chair sponsorship and I can compete too. [8:55] Let's see your headline round. [8:57] Give us the missing word. [8:57] Let's see your headline round. Give us the missing word. [8:57] Let's see your headline round. Give us the missing word. [8:57] Let's see your headline round. Give us the missing word. [8:57] Let's see your headline round. Give us the missing word. [8:57] Let's see your headline round. Give us the missing word. [8:58] Give us the missing word. From the CNN headline, thieves steal [9:00] 12 tons of blank in Europe heist. Was it art works, crude oil, gold bars, Kit Kat bars? [9:07] Ooh. Okay. 12 tons. I'm going to go with Kit Kat bars because I saw a statement from [9:16] the Reagan Library reacting to this and it was a known favorite candy of the former president. [9:21] What was the Reagan Library saying about it? [9:24] They said they had nothing to do with it, but they have a strong supply of jelly beans [9:27] just in case. [9:28] You are right. The answer is D, Kit Kats. I'm sure you would have got it right, Dave. [9:32] But actually, it's had this double effect for the company because they're saying these thieves had such good taste. [9:38] There isn't any risk of a shortage, by the way, in case you're concerned that Easter has become a bit of a PR victory for Kit Kats, hasn't it? [9:45] Yeah, I think maybe the theme of this week's show is that I don't know what presidential libraries do, but I'm glad that the Reagan Library was on top of that one. [9:54] Guys, thank you so much. That is What Do You Know? Did you do better than our two top correspondents? [10:01] I mean, how can you beat Betsy? But I'm sure you gave it a good go. If you didn't beat Betsy, have another go next week. Thank you for watching.
