Office Ladies | Episode 316 - Office Ladies Vs. Office Trivia Champs
Jenna [00:00:04] I'm Jenna Fischer,
Angela [00:00:05] and I'm Angela Kinsey.
Jenna [00:00:06] We were on "The Office" together,
Angela [00:00:08] and we're best friends.
Jenna [00:00:09] And now we're doing the ultimate Office lover's podcast, just for you.
Angela [00:00:13] Each week we will dive deeper into the world of The Office with exclusive interviews, behind the scenes details, and lots of BFF stories.
Jenna [00:00:21] We're the Office Ladies 6.0.

Angela [00:00:00] Hi, you guys.
Jenna [00:00:01] Oh my gosh, we have such a fun thing today. We're gonna do some Office trivia.
Angela [00:00:06] We are, and we are doing Office trivia with two amazing Office trivia... I don't know, Jenna, what would you call them? They're geniuses.
Jenna [00:00:13] I mean, I think that's a fair description. Yes, with my friend Will Allen, who is a national champion for Office trivia. And also our friend Will Friedle, (I learned the pronunciation of his name) who we know from "Pod Meets World."
Angela [00:00:32] That's right. And you guys will be familiar with Will Allen because he helped do the trivia quiz for Billie Eilish. This guy knows his stuff. But between the two of them, holy crap. I mean, they could take down any Office trivia night.
Jenna [00:00:47] Well, we go head-to-head with them and we're not going to tell you how it turned out, but I mean...
Angela [00:00:52] We did okay.
Jenna [00:00:53] I don't feel bad about myself.
Angela [00:00:55] There might be one moment where I was like, "Oh, come on, Ange." But it's super fun and we hope you guys play along with us. But first, why don't we do our Chit Chat of the Day?
Jenna [00:01:04] Yeah, this is coming from Ellen K. in Canton, Ohio.
Ellen K. [00:01:09] Hi Jenna and Angela, or Lady and Lady. My name is Ellen from Canton, Ohio. I've been a listener since the very beginning and I'm a huge fan. Can't wait for Wednesdays. Because of your show, my best friend Lindsay, and I have been calling each other Lady for years now. Anyway, Canton, Ohio is home of the NFL's Pro Football Hall of Fame. If there was an actor/actresses Hall of Fame, I believe you both would get in on a first time ballot. My question is, in your opinion, who are some of the top female actors of all times? Who would you vote in? Thanks, bye.
Jenna [00:01:49] Thanks Ellen!
Angela [00:01:51] I mean, yeah.
Jenna [00:01:51] Thank you for putting me in the Hall of Fame!
Angela [00:01:54] Seriously! Wow, I mean, there's just so many amazing, talented actresses.
Jenna [00:02:00] I answered this question a little differently because I didn't hear the audio of it until just now. So I thought I was just supposed to nominate some actresses for a Hall of Fame, because there's so many. My list was so long. I was like, "You know what? I wanna do 2026 Actress Hall of Fame" and just shout out some performances that I have seen this year that are just absolutely masterpieces of acting.
Angela [00:02:29] Right, because of all time, man... That's such a huge net. So OK, Ellen, if you don't mind, we're going to just put our own spin on this a little. OK, Jenna, you go first.
Jenna [00:02:41] Me?
Angela [00:02:42] Yeah, and I didn't think of this as just 2026. I just thought of people that I like. But you go.
Jenna [00:02:48] Well, I need to start with Kara Young. I just recently saw the movie "Is God Is." It's so good. It is so quirky and strange and unique. I absolutely loved it. This used to be a play. I did not see the play. I so wish I had, but she is the star of Is God is. And after I saw this movie, I looked her up and I found out that she is the first black actress to be nominated for a Tony Award for "Best Featured Actress in a Play" four years in a row.
Angela [00:03:22] Wow.
Jenna [00:03:23] In 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. And then she won in both 2024 and 2025, and I cannot wait to see what this woman does next. She's incredible.
Angela [00:03:39] Wow. So everybody be on the lookout.
Jenna [00:03:40] Yes. And see Is God Is. It's great. So that was my first choice. I'm putting her in the 2026 Hall of Fame.
Angela [00:03:48] I just had two actresses immediately come to mind to me, who every moment they're on screen I believe. I believe what they're saying. I believe that they're that person.
Jenna [00:04:01] This is good criteria.
Angela [00:04:02] Yeah, whoever like they are from role to role, I just fully believe that's who they are. So for me, it was Viola Davis and Emma Thompson.
Jenna [00:04:15] Mmm, those are good choices.
Angela [00:04:17] Right?
Jenna [00:04:17] Those are Hall of Famers.
Angela [00:04:19] They're Hall of Famers. I don't see them act. I just think they're that person.
Jenna [00:04:27] Yeah. That's very good. Alright. Well, my next 2026 Hall of Fame inductees are Olivia Wilde and Penelope Cruz for "The Invite." I have watched this movie twice. I love every second of it. Olivia Wilde also directed it and Rashida Jones co-wrote it.
Angela [00:04:44] Hey.
Jenna [00:04:45] So I love this movie and these two women are incredible. I mean, the whole cast is incredible: Seth Rogen and then also Edward Norton. But these two ladies, they get to go to the Hall of Fame.
Angela [00:04:56] Yeah, they do. I love, love Sally Field.
Jenna [00:05:00] Sally Field and Debra Winger are the two women who made me want to be an actress. I tried really hard to go to this party. There's this party every year called "The Night Before the Emmys" party. Angela, we've been many times. I went this year because Sally Field-
Angela [00:05:18] Oh, did you try to meet her?
Jenna [00:05:20] Yes, because Sally Field was nominated and then eventually won. I was like, "I bet she's gonna be there. I bet she's going to be at the party." So we went to the party, but we got stuck in traffic and I got there 45 minutes late. All I did was walk around and ask if Sally Field was there. "Has anyone seen Sally Field?" And they said that she left. She was here first thing and she left, she-
Angela [00:05:46] She's smart. She goes early.
Jenna [00:05:48] She got there for one hour and I missed her!
Angela [00:05:51] Dang it.
Jenna [00:05:51] It was so bad. She was the reason I got dressed up and got in my car that night.
Angela [00:05:56] That's a good reason. I have another actress that I've actually always wanted to work with because I think she's so powerful on screen. Whenever she's on screen, whoever else is her scene partner, I'm so sorry. I apologize to you because I just watch her.
Jenna [00:06:12] Who is it?
Angela [00:06:13] Regina King. I loved her in "The Watchmen."
Jenna [00:06:17] Oh yeah.
Angela [00:06:18] She's phenomenal.
Jenna [00:06:19] You know who I can't take my eyes off of in movies, and I'll see any movie she's in? Is Emma Stone. I have loved her since she did that comedy with Steve Carell.
Angela [00:06:31] "Crazy Stupid Love?"
Jenna [00:06:32] Yes.
Angela [00:06:33] Yeah, she's great in that.
Jenna [00:06:33] With Ryan Gosling. But then I love her in "Bugonia."
Angela [00:06:38] She was fantastic in Bugonia.
Jenna [00:06:39] She does just great work and she chooses interesting projects. So I also love her. But I need to give one more shout out for my 2026 Hall of Fame this is for a stage performance that i just saw. I was just telling you about this, Angela, I just saw "The Imaginary Invalid." It's on broadway. I saw it in previews. It's a Molière play and there's an actress in it named Ava Lalezarzadeh. She has a scene where she has to sing. But she's making it up as she goes along, but she's communicating all this subtext while doing it. It's comedic.
Angela [00:07:16] So she has to act like she's making up a song that she really had to actually learn that was scripted?
Jenna [00:07:23] Of course, yes. And it is so good. If it were a movie, I would have rewound it and watched it over and over again. It was comedic timing genius. It was so good. I wanna give her an award for it.
Angela [00:07:37] Awesome.
Jenna [00:07:37] So I'm putting her in my Hall of Fame.
Angela [00:07:39] I love it. Well, Ellen, that was just such a fun question because it just let my mind just wander to all of these beautiful, wonderful moments of cinema and TV with these fantastic women.
Jenna [00:07:53] Agree. Alright, well listen, I think we should take a break and we should come back with Will and Will and do some trivia.
Angela [00:07:58] Let's do some Office trivia, you guys. Get your staplers and jello ready. I don't know. [laughs]
audio cue [00:08:05] [musical sting]
Jenna [00:08:11] Hello, Will Allen and Will Friedle! (Free - Dl)
Will F. [00:08:13] Close, Friedle. (Fri-Dell) No one gets it right, we talked about this.
Jenna [00:08:21] I've only been on your podcast and spoken to you many times.
Will F. [00:08:23] Doesn't matter, nope. It doesn't matter. No one gets it right. Like, literally.
Angela [00:08:25] You should tell her the story you told me because, that'll make her feel better.
Will F. [00:08:29] So we've been talking because I'm Will Allen and he's Will Allen. When I joined the industry, professionally in 1985, my managers begged me to drop the Friedle because no one gets it right. So I was going to be Will Allen. So it was going be Will Allen and Will Allen because Allen's my middle name. So half of my family actually says Fridel, we don't talk to them, and half says Freedle. That's the truth.
Angela [00:08:51] But which side is right?
Will F. [00:08:52] It turns out the Fridels were wrong. It was actually the Freedles that were pronouncing it correctly. So we try not to talk about that too much in public.
Jenna [00:09:00] Well, I was gonna say for today, since we have two Wills, how are we gonna differentiate you? Should we call you Allen and Friedle?
Will A. [00:09:09] Well, he's A-L-L E-N, and I'm A- L-L A-N. So just make that clear when you're pronouncing it, and think you're fine.
Will F. [00:09:16] Allen, Allan.
Will A. [00:09:17] Yes, I think you are fine.
Angela [00:09:18] So, Allan? (over pronounces Allan)
Will A. [00:09:19] I think, yeah, Fredell, Allan. Or Will F or Will A.
Will F. [00:09:22] Or what some people call me, because when I say my name quickly and I say, "I'm Will Friedle," people think I'm saying, "I'm Willford L." So many people call my Wilford, for short.
Jenna [00:09:32] Okay.
Will F. [00:09:32] So if you just wanna call me Wilford, that's fine.
Jenna [00:09:34] Alright, so Will and Wilfred.
Will F. [00:09:35] There you go.
Will A. [00:09:36] I love that.
Angela [00:09:36] I still like Allan. (over pronounced) Alright, well we should tell everyone what we're doing today with the two Wills.
Jenna [00:09:47] Yes, we should. We are going to have an The Office trivia contest. Here's what's happening. Will Allan is an Office trivia champion. You helped us craft questions for Billy Eilish.
Angela [00:10:03] I was gonna say, Office Ladies listeners, you have listened to his handiwork because there were some stumpers there for Billy.
Will A. [00:10:10] Oh, there were. Billy handled it very well, I will say. But some of those were brutal, though. I had a task and I accomplished it.
Will F. [00:10:18] To crush Billie Eilish, that was your task?
Will A. [00:10:20] That was the task. God, I feel great. Thank you for inviting me.
Jenna [00:10:23] Wilfred, we met when we did your podcast, Pod Meets World.
Will F. [00:10:28] Correct. Yes.
Jenna [00:10:29] We had so much fun on that.
Will F. [00:10:30] We had such a blast with you. It was great.
Angela [00:10:32] We learned something very interesting about you, which is you have sort of a photographic memory?
Will F. [00:10:36] With certain things, yeah. Not with everything, which is why I feel like I've been set up for failure. Like, I can only look bad, essentially. But no, for the most part, especially with television, for shows that I watch, I can essentially close my eyes and watch them again.
Angela [00:10:49] And so when we were talking about The Office when we're on your podcast, you knew all of these details. You knew the color of Pam's sweater. It freaked us out. We just shouted out an episode to you and you knew things. It was crazy.
Will F. [00:11:03] Yeah, I can do that. I'm pretty good at that with The Office. If this was a "M.A.S.H." podcast, you'd be really astounded.
Jenna [00:11:10] Is that your number one that you can recall, is M.A.S.H?
Will F. [00:11:14] "Friends," The Office, "Seinfeld," MASH, those four. "News Radio," for one that's a little more obscure. Those are kind of the ones that are my go-to, so yeah.
Angela [00:11:23] So Jenna and I thought it'd be super fun to have these two guys on the podcast to basically hand us our ass in trivia.
Jenna [00:11:33] Yes. So Will Allan, you have prepared some questions.
Will A. [00:11:38] Thank you for pronouncing that correctly.
Jenna [00:11:40] You're welcome. You have prepared some questions for us. They are Pam and Angela centered. We are going to attempt to answer them. And if we cannot, then Wilfred will have a chance to answer. Do you want to explain how you put this quiz together?
Angela [00:11:54] Yes, tell us your origin story in the Office trivia world.
Will A. [00:11:58] Yeah, so during the pandemic, there was a huge national Office trivia contest over Zoom every week, every Wednesday.
Will F. [00:12:06] Really?
Will A. [00:12:06] I created sort of a super team called "Who's Your Worm Guy?"
Angela [00:12:11] Nice.
Will A. [00:12:11] Hopefully, you know that reference. If you don't, today's gonna be miserable, and I actually recruited some of them. So shout out Ryan and Ashton for helping me put some of these questions together today.
Angela [00:12:22] Okay.
Will A. [00:12:22] Uh, and it was just this amazing way to stay connected to our friends. We had just moved to LA, like, five minutes before the pandemic. Then we were shut down and we were missing Chicago. We were missing our friends and it became this amazing way that, every Wednesday at six o'clock, we got together and we competed in this tournament. We won it multiple times as a team. I also won it once alone. On a day when no one else could make it.
Angela [00:12:50] You went solo?
Will A. [00:12:51] I went solo and it was white knuckle. Because we had a nemesis team.
Angela [00:12:58] What was their name?
Will A. [00:13:00] "DeBella DeBall," and I know that they're listening. I know they're listening and I want them to comment and show themselves.
Angela [00:13:09] So you beat DeBella DeBall with basically one arm behind your back?
Will A. [00:13:12] That's right, DeBella DeBall if you're listening. That happened the day you lost to Who's Your Worm Guy. I think it was maybe all the way in October. But show yourselves. We want to know who you are. We've spoken so ill of you for years now, and I bet you're very nice.
Will F. [00:13:30] We are.
Angela [00:13:32] Ohhh!
Will F. [00:13:32] I'm kidding!
Will A. [00:13:34] So yes, today's trivia is all Pam and Angela.
Angela [00:13:38] Oh, great.
Will A. [00:13:39] And so the ground rules that I kind of created for myself were; they either have to be things that you all say or things that you will do on the show, or it needs to be something about your character on a day that I could assume that you were on set.
Angela [00:13:56] Okay.
Will A. [00:13:57] I tried not to pick anything where they're talking about you, but we haven't seen you a ton in this episode because you might have been at home. I feel like that could have been cold-blooded of me, to lean into that.
Angela [00:14:10] That's very thoughtful of you. So Jenna, when we get it wrong, when the words came out of our mouth that we said to each other on set, it's just going to really, really...
Will A. [00:14:21] Other people might have said it, but you were at least in the shot.
Angela [00:14:26] Okay.
Will A. [00:14:26] So we'll see how well you were paying attention. The other rules for listeners, because there are listeners who will know all of these. The other rule is it has to have happened in an episode the way it originally aired on NBC. So there's no super fan episode trivia here, that seems too detailed to go into. And there's not behind the scenes, there's no podcasts, there's know anything like that.
Will F. [00:14:50] No bloopers.
Will A. [00:14:51] No bloopers. No "who wrote this," no "who directed this," nothing like that. So this is pretty much the meat of the show.
Angela [00:15:00] The original airing.
Will A. [00:15:01] That's right.
Jenna [00:15:02] I like it. That's good.
Angela [00:15:05] That's good. You're going to ask and then do Jenna and I get to work together as a team here?
Will A. [00:15:11] Yes. So I'm actually going to alternate who gets to attempt to answer first. So the first question will go to you two. If you get it right, you get two points. If you don't know it, then Wilfred has a chance to steal it for one point. There are also a couple of questions that have bonus opportunities. If neither team gets it, then I get a point.
Angela [00:15:34] Oh, okay.
Will F. [00:15:35] Am I allowed to heckle them as they're trying to work together?
Will A. [00:15:39] A hundred percent.
Will F. [00:15:39] Great.
Angela [00:15:39] What?
Will A. [00:15:39] This is a heckling safe environment. But yes, the two of you can and should work together. The reason you can only steal for one point is because Wilfred, theoretically, could listen to you.
Angela [00:15:52] And we could give you hints.
Will A. [00:15:54] He could work it out.
Jenna [00:15:54] Oh, gotcha. I like it, I like.
Will F. [00:15:56] Thank you, Allen.
Jenna [00:15:57] Well, Sam, maybe you can bring us into this quiz with a little quiz show music.
audio cue [00:16:01] [70's game show music]
Will A. [00:16:13] Alright, do you all want to try this?
Jenna [00:16:15] Yeah!
Angela [00:16:15] Let's do it.
Will A. [00:16:15] Let me pull up my little scoring machine here.
Will F. [00:16:18] I'm so nervous.
Angela [00:16:18] Oh, I have a question. Is there any time limit?
Will A. [00:16:21] There's no time limit, I mean...
Angela [00:16:24] Just a reasonable amount.
Will A. [00:16:23] I think my patience is the time limit.
Angela [00:16:26] Oh my gosh, can I just say, Will? Allan has some sass.
Will A. [00:16:32] You don't become Office trivia champion without a healthy amount of sass.
Angela [00:16:37] That's right, DiBella DiBall.
Will A. [00:16:40] Oh, I hope they comment. I have to know.
Will F. [00:16:44] I love how this is a personal vendetta for you.
Will A. [00:16:46] It so is. They beat us so many times, they're honestly probably better than us. But that's all right. Alright. Should we do it?
Jenna [00:16:52] (in unison with Angela) Let's do it.
Will F. [00:16:53] Yes.
Will A. [00:16:53] Alright, so these questions will vary in difficulty. I'm not going after anyone in particular. I have them on my sheet colored in red light, yellow light, and green light.
Angela [00:17:04] Oh my god, are you and Jenna best friends? This amount of organization. The spreadsheet, oh my gosh.
Will A. [00:17:10] I'm not going to tell you the color of the light associated with the question, but you may inquire after the question. If you're interested, which I can't imagine you would be.
Will F. [00:17:19] So we don't pick level of difficultly, gotcha.
Will A. [00:17:22] You are at the mercy of me.
Angela [00:17:25] Will Allan.
Will A. [00:17:25] Will Alan is making it all. Are you ready?
Angela [00:17:28] Yes.
Will A. [00:17:28] Alright, let's do this. So the first question is going to be for Jenna and Angela. What two adjectives does Michael use to describe Angela when determining if she could be a gay woman?
Jenna [00:17:43] [laughing] I don't even remember this happening. When is he wondering this? What episode is this?
Will A. [00:17:48] During the "Gay Witch Hunt."
Angela [00:17:50] Ah, this is so funny.
Will A. [00:17:53] Oh, this is gonna be hard. It's two words, two different words.
Jenna [00:17:57] He's wondering if she's a gay woman?
Will A. [00:17:59] He says, "She's _____ and _____. She could be a gay woman."
Jenna [00:18:02] For some reason, the word "severe" is coming to mind. So that's one, but I can't remember anything else.
Angela [00:18:11] Severe or strict? I can't remember.
Will A. [00:18:14] Do you want to lock it in?
Jenna [00:18:17] I'll lock in severe.
Will A. [00:18:18] Okay. So I'm going to give you the point, because severe is one of them.
Jenna [00:18:24] [cheers]
Will A. [00:18:25] But I'm going to get Wilfred the opportunity to steal the other one.
Will F. [00:18:28] "Severe" was the one I had.
Will A. [00:18:29] Okay.
Will F. [00:18:30] It wasn't tight, tight and severe?
Will A. [00:18:31] You're so close.
Will F. [00:18:32] What is it?
Will A. [00:18:35] "Angela, she's hard and severe."
Angela [00:18:36] Hard and severe!
Will F. [00:18:38] "I can picture her with another woman" and then Dwight looks to the camera like, "So could I."
Will A. [00:18:43] Yeah, that's the exact moment. Very good, very good.
Angela [00:18:46] Where am I in that scene?
Will F. [00:18:48] They're looking at you through the window of Michael's office.
Angela [00:18:50] Oh, yeah. I wasn't even probably in the shot when we filmed it.
Will A. [00:18:54] I think I'm in love with Wilfred, just for the way he described that. True Office aficionado. But good job. Also you can't lose points in this game so I'm not taking points away from people.
Angela [00:19:06] But Jenna, spy shot scenes where you're in the background are now allowed.
Jenna [00:19:10] Apparently fair game.
Will A. [00:19:11] You were definitely there. You were there that day.
Angela [00:19:13] I know, but I wasn't paying attention.
Will A. [00:19:16] I will tell you, that was a yellow question. I know I said I wouldn't tell you, but I'll tell you. That was a yellow question.
Will F. [00:19:22] Oh my god, if that's a yellow one...
Will A. [00:19:23] There's a lot of greens.
Angela [00:19:24] I was there, but I wasn't speaking in the scene.
Will A. [00:19:27] Yes. We were looking at you as it was being said. Alright, so this question is going to go to Wilfred first, and it's a doozy.
Will F. [00:19:35] Okay.
Will A. [00:19:36] What is Kevin's personal copy machine code?
Angela [00:19:39] Oh my god.
Will A. [00:19:40] We don't get the full 21 digits. But what are the numbers we do get, in order?
Angela [00:19:47] Oh my gosh, that's really tough.
Will F. [00:19:50] 4 1 7 1 7 2 6 9 8 5 3 0 0 4 6 2 1.
Will A. [00:19:58] That is correct.
Angela [00:19:59] Holy s**t!
Jenna [00:20:02] Stop it!
Angela [00:20:03] Holy s**t!
Jenna [00:20:04] How did you do that?
Angela [00:20:06] That was crazy.
Jenna [00:20:06] Could you just see it?
Will F. [00:20:07] I'm a big fan of the Office.
Angela [00:20:08] You went into a trance, like, your eyes like glazed over.
Will A. [00:20:12] That's a green question for real Office fans.
Jenna [00:20:15] No it is not!
Will A. [00:20:16] No, we are going to admit the truth to you. That was planned.
Will F. [00:20:18] We set that up for you.
Jenna [00:20:26] Oh my God!
Angela [00:20:28] Well done, well done!
Will F. [00:20:30] I memorized the actual number!
Angela [00:20:31] I was gonna say though. So your glazed look was concentration.
Will F. [00:20:35] That's the real number, but yeah, we set that up.
Will A. [00:20:37] We emailed back and forth. It was Wilfred's idea.
Will F. [00:20:39] I was like, "We got to start with one where no one could possibly know this, and then I'll memorize it."
Jenna [00:20:44] Have you just been waiting all morning to get to that so you could nail it?
Will F. [00:20:46] Oh my god, I would say it to my wife. Halfway through the day she'd be, like, "Tell me the number again." I'm like, "Alright, four, one, seven..." So yeah, we've been practicing.
Will A. [00:20:56] What is incredible is that you did get it exactly right.
Will F. [00:20:58] Yeah, of course. I watched it a lot. Well, the actual scene is "Zero." "Wait, another zero?" "Yes, another one."
Will A. [00:21:04] I had to watch it, like, 15 times to figure out which numbers were repeated and which ones were Kevin flubs, what was happening.
Will F. [00:21:11] I'm so happy I got 'em all right.
Jenna [00:21:14] I think you deserve two points for having memorized it.
Will F. [00:21:16] Just for having memorized the number?
Jenna [00:21:18] Yes, that's fair.
Will A. [00:21:18] We will look back on that at the end and decide.
Will F. [00:21:22] Okay, that could be a tiebreaker.
Will A. [00:21:24] Because you're gonna get another question right now. Alright. Here we go. Here's a real one. Okay, what is Angela's stipulation for having a tent wedding with Andy?
Will F. [00:21:35] Oh, okay, so she wants a hand plowed field,
Will A. [00:21:39] You've already got it.
Will F. [00:21:40] Oh, is that it? Just the hand plow? Oh, you don't also need, "He's gonna dig the trench because Nana Mimi can't squat over a trench." Okay, good, so the hand-plowed field, yeah.
Will A. [00:21:52] Yeah, wow. That's very good. That is a yellow question.
Angela [00:21:55] Which was written "hand-tilled field," but I can't say "tilled."
Will A. [00:21:58] Oh, is that what it was? Really?
Angela [00:22:00] On the day they changed it to hand-plowed. I kept having my Southern accent come out. So when you said that, I was like, "Hand tilled/hand plowed."
Will F. [00:22:09] That's great.
Will A. [00:22:10] That was really good. Well done. Alright, this one's going to go to Jenna and Angela. What kind of food do Pam and Jim decide to get for dinner when Pam is stuck in the elevator with Dwight?
Jenna [00:22:23] I don't remember.
Will A. [00:22:24] I'm just looking for a genre of cuisine.
Angela [00:22:27] I'm going to say Thai food.
Jenna [00:22:29] I thought it was Chinese food.
Will A. [00:22:30] I'm not taking anything until you tell me it's the answer you're locking in.
Jenna [00:22:34] I also wondered if it was Italian food. I think I'm gonna say Chinese food.
Angela [00:22:38] Yeah.
Will A. [00:22:39] Gonna lock it in?
Jenna [00:22:39] I'm gonna lock it.
Will A. [00:22:40] That's gonna be two points. That's correct.
Angela [00:22:43] [cheering] I felt like it was some kind of Asian fair.
Jenna [00:22:46] You know why I thought it was that? Because in season 9, when she visits him at AthLead and he sets up dinner for them,
Angela [00:22:53] He gets Chinese takeout.
Jenna [00:22:55] Yeah, It was Chinese takeout.
Will F. [00:22:55] And you're also thinking of Italian because when he comes up and kisses Pam, he says, "What, you want to try the new Italian place?" So that's the other thing.
Jenna [00:23:02] Yeah. I feel like these are their go-tos.
Will A. [00:23:04] "I think I love Italian food" is one of those moments that just gives you chills.
Will F. [00:23:08] It's the best, yeah.
Will A. [00:23:09] So great. Okay, wow. Alright, this one's going to Wilfred. What is Pam's salary, that she invents, as the Office Administrator?
Will F. [00:23:21] She starts at 40.
Will A. [00:23:23] You're gonna be so good at this.
Will F. [00:23:25] She starts a 40, and she goes to 45, and that's when Oscar goes, "45?" She goes, "No, 41 five?" So, 41 five.
Will A. [00:23:36] Forty one five is correct. She does go to 50.
Will F. [00:23:41] Oh, is that what it is? 50? She goes to 50?
Will A. [00:23:43] That's when Oscar freaks out.
Angela [00:23:50] Wow.
Will A. [00:23:51] Alright, this one's gonna go to Jenna and Angela. This one you should get. This one's kind of like iconic Office trivia.
Angela [00:23:58] Oh no.
Jenna [00:23:59] Oh boy.
Will A. [00:24:00] You got this.
Jenna [00:24:00] You just jinxed us.
Will A. [00:24:01] What are the two colors that Angela thinks are whorish or kind of whorish?
Angela [00:24:05] Green and orange.
Will A. [00:24:06] Yep.
Angela [00:24:07] Nice, that was a softball, thank you.
Will A. [00:24:09] That was a softball. We were going softball there. Alright. This one's gonna be for Wilfred.
Will F. [00:24:15] Okay.
Will A. [00:24:16] What kind of car is Pam driving when she is secretly dating Jim?
Will F. [00:24:22] Oh. God, great question.
Jenna [00:24:25] Oh yeah.
Will F. [00:24:25] It's the small gray car. I see her leaning over as he sneaks into the passenger side. It's one of those small SUVs. I don't know the make and model of the car. I honestly don't the make a model. It's at Toyota. I'm gonna make up something. It's Toyota.
Will A. [00:24:42] It is a Toyota.
Will F. [00:24:43] Okay.
Will A. [00:24:43] But the SUV department, you were in the wrong.
Will F. [00:24:45] No, it's like the small, the...
Will A. [00:24:47] It's a compact.
Will F. [00:24:48] Compact, yeah. But I'm confusing it with the first car she was in, though.
Will A. [00:24:51] I'll give you one point for Toyota.
Will F. [00:24:53] Okay, yeah, gotcha.
Will A. [00:24:54] But I can't give you two. It's going to be the Toyota Yaris, which I don't even think they make anymore.
Will F. [00:25:01] Okay. I did not know that.
Will A. [00:25:03] But yes, so we'll give you a point so we're tied.
Will F. [00:25:05] Okay. I'll take Toyota.
Angela [00:25:08] Now, do we get a chance to steal from Wilfred?
Will A. [00:25:11] You would, but since he got the Toyota...
Angela [00:25:12] The Toyota part, got it.
Will A. [00:25:13] I also got energy from the other side of the room that maybe they didn't know it was a Yaris.
Jenna [00:25:18] I would not have gotten that. I thought Pam's other car was a Kia. Did she drive a Kia?
Will F. [00:25:25] That's the bigger one, right?
Jenna [00:25:26] The bigger SUV car, I think it was a Kia maybe?
Will F. [00:25:29] Yeah, that's the one when Roy comes and pulls her out of the meeting.
Angela [00:25:32] So is she driving the Yaris when they keep leaving voicemails back and forth to one another and it's just that montage? It's so cute, when she's driving away.
Will F. [00:25:45] When they're missing each other, so they just keep leaving the voicemails?
Angela [00:25:51] Yes, I thought that was a sedan.
Will A. [00:25:52] I don't know if the cars stayed consistent.
Angela [00:25:53] No, they didn't. That was a thing.
Will A. [00:25:56] Okay, movin' on.
Angela [00:25:57] I love all this, you guys. This is so fun.
Will F. [00:25:59] These are tough. Yeah.
Will A. [00:26:00] Yeah. But you did well.
Will F. [00:26:01] Well, thank you. Good pull on Toyota. That's a good pull.
Will F. [00:26:04] Now I know why DeBella DiBall didn't want me on their team.
Will A. [00:26:07] [laughs] Okay, this one, hopefully not too much of a softball, but might be a soft ball. At the painfully uncomfortable birthday lunch, for Helene, Pam's mom,
Angela [00:26:18] Oh, yeah.
Will A. [00:26:19] What age is she actually turning?
Jenna [00:26:23] 56.
audio cue [00:26:25] [buzzer noise]
Jenna [00:26:25] Oh no, I got it wrong!
Will F. [00:26:27] Can I steal?
Will A. [00:26:28] I'm gonna let you steal.
Will F. [00:26:30] 58.
Will A. [00:26:31] 58 is correct.
Will A. [00:26:33] Yep, you get a point for that.
Will F. [00:26:36] Thank you. She's doing the math.
Jenna [00:26:37] 56 is what freaked Michael out, but it was 58.
Angela [00:26:42] 58. You were very close, lady.
Will A. [00:26:44] Yeah, it was "49th for the ninth year in a row."
Jenna [00:26:48] Oh yeah, okay.
Will A. [00:26:49] Alright, good steal. That's our first steal.
Will F. [00:26:51] First steal of the day.
Will A. [00:26:52] We should celebrate that.
Jenna [00:26:53] The fact that there was ever a time when we were tied, I'm taking as a personal win.
Angela [00:26:59] We've already won, lady.
Jenna [00:27:00] We've already one over here. We feel good.
Angela [00:27:04] You got "severe." That was really good.
Will F. [00:27:05] Severe, yeah. That's the only one I got. That was great.
Angela [00:27:06] I did not remember that.
Will A. [00:27:08] Yeah, that was a very good poll. I was impressed by that.
Will A. [00:27:11] Alright, this one's going to Wilfred then. While attending "Sweeney Todd," Pam sits next to Michael. That's why this question is legal. What colors are the balloons Michael brought to congratulate Andy?
Will F. [00:27:25] Oh, for the love of God. Red and blue?
audio cue [00:27:30] [buzzer sound]
Will A. [00:27:30] That's incorrect.
Will F. [00:27:30] D**nit.
Angela [00:27:31] Steal?
Jenna [00:27:31] I think they're just blue.
Angela [00:27:33] I thought they were black.
Will A. [00:27:34] I need all the colors, to get this right.
Jenna [00:27:38] More than one color?
Will F. [00:27:39] These are crazy.
Jenna [00:27:39] I thought they were just blue.
Angela [00:27:40] They're a dark color.
Will A. [00:27:42] I'm gonna give you a hint.
Will F. [00:27:44] I didn't get a hint!
Will A. [00:27:45] I know, you didn't.
Angela [00:27:46] Do you get one of them?
Jenna [00:27:47] Are they multiple colors?
Will A. [00:27:49] What'd you say again?
Angela [00:27:50] He said "red and blue."
Will A. [00:27:52] Yep, so two of the three have been said in the room.
Jenna [00:27:56] Oh, so then is it blue and black?
Angela [00:27:58] It's black and, maybe, red.
Jenna [00:28:01] I swear, I think they're blue.
Angela [00:28:03] OK, so let's go black and blue.
Jenna [00:28:04] But I don't know. Maybe it's red and black.
Angela [00:28:08] You thought blue and black.
Jenna [00:28:10] Oh God, I'm scared. Okay, blue and Black, locking it in.
audio cue [00:28:12] [buzzer]
Will A. [00:28:13] I'm gonna take my first point for the day here.
Angela [00:28:15] Oh, they're black and red! Are they black and red?
Will A. [00:28:18] So I threw in Sweeney Todd just because there's a common color palette easily associated with it.
Jenna [00:28:24] Of course! It's black and red!
Will A. [00:28:24] Black, red, and white.
Will F. [00:28:31] Tough question.
Angela [00:28:32] I just remembered black.
Will F. [00:28:33] Was that a red question?
Will A. [00:28:33] That was a red question.
Will F. [00:28:35] Okay. Yeah. Thank God. Wow, that's tough one.
Will A. [00:28:38] So this one's gonna go to Jenna and Angela. In the Office Olympics, Pam takes on the role as delegate of what country?
Jenna [00:28:46] Oh god. I don't remember the first season.
Angela [00:28:47] I know, I'm barely in that one. I'm just judging you from the corner.
Jenna [00:28:52] Gosh, it's something Iceland, or the delegate from...
Angela [00:28:58] Norway! I don't know. I don't remember that at all.
Jenna [00:29:02] Oh, I don't think it's Iceland, but I'm just gonna say Iceland. I don't think that's right.
Will A. [00:29:08] You gonna lock it in?
Jenna [00:29:11] Sure.
Will A. [00:29:11] That's gonna be two points. That's correct.
Will F. [00:29:11] That's correct, yeah!
Will A. [00:29:14] You're the delegate from Iceland.
Will F. [00:29:16] "Thank you, Delegate from Iceland," is what he says, yes.
Will A. [00:29:19] Nice, good pull!
Jenna [00:29:20] Alright, it's in there, right? I don't trust it, I don't know why it's there, but it was there.
Will A. [00:29:27] I knew you had that one in you.
Will F. [00:29:29] That was a good one.
Angela [00:29:31] I had zero memory of that.
Will F. [00:29:33] That's great.
Will A. [00:29:34] Alright, this one's going to go to Wilfred, who is trailing by one. Just one. What kind of hot sauce is the hot sauce packet Jim puts in the teapot for Pam?
Will F. [00:29:44] Oh, meaning like the actual brand?
Will A. [00:29:47] It is a famous type of hot-sauce packet that does exist in the world.
Will F. [00:29:53] Is it Taco Bell?
Will A. [00:29:55] And can you tell me what level of heat?
Will F. [00:29:57] Oh, come on. Seriously, the actual brand isn't enough?
Will A. [00:30:03] The reason I'm demanding that is because the level of heat is what we actually see on the packet.
Will F. [00:30:08] Okay, "extreme."
Will A. [00:30:11] Good guess, but it's gonna be "fire."
Will F. [00:30:14] I didn't even know that was a thing. Wow, we're getting very specific with me.
Angela [00:30:18] I only knew Taco Bell. I didn't know what level it would be.
Will A. [00:30:20] I am giving you one point.
Will F. [00:30:22] Okay.
Will A. [00:30:22] Taco Bell I think is a pretty good one. I used to go to Taco Bell and just steal hundreds of packets of Taco Bell fire sauce.
Will F. [00:30:33] I think I've been to Taco bell twice.
Will A. [00:30:35] Don't sue me Taco Bell, okay. Alright, here we go. This one could be a little tougher, but we'll see. This one's gonna be for Jenna and Angela. What poker hand does Pam have that knocks Jim out of the game?
Jenna [00:30:47] I think she has a full house. I don't think she has a royal flush, or a flush. I think she has a full house. I'm gonna say full house.
Will A. [00:30:56] Locking it in?
Jenna [00:30:57] Yeah.
audio cue [00:31:00] [buzzer]
Will A. [00:31:00] Wilfred, you have a chance to steal.
Jenna [00:31:02] Oh no!
Will F. [00:31:02] Doesn't she have a straight?
Will A. [00:31:05] She indeed has a straight. I'm going to give you an opportunity for a bonus point here, which is what hand does Jim have that she beats?
Will F. [00:31:16] Oh, Jim has three of a kind, doesn't he?
Will A. [00:31:18] He has three of a kind. Do you know what the three are?
Angela [00:31:21] Oh my gosh.
Will F. [00:31:23] No, is it three threes?
Will A. [00:31:24] Three nines, but you're still getting the bonus.
Will F. [00:31:26] Okay good.
Will A. [00:31:27] Because that was really impressive. Everyone loves this iconic moment. Is this for you?
Will F. [00:31:35] This is for me now.
Will A. [00:31:36] Yeah, okay. You should get this. Pam asks Prison Mike what the food was like in prison. What were the two things he said they could eat?
Will F. [00:31:46] Gruel, gruel sandwiches.
Will A. [00:31:50] So I'm counting "gruel and gruel sandwiches" as one.
Will F. [00:31:54] Okay. He doesn't say slop? Water?
Will A. [00:31:58] Alright, I'm gonna give you the point for gruel. But I'm going to give them an opportunity to steal the other point.
Jenna [00:32:05] I don't remember.
Angela [00:32:05] Yeah, I don't either.
Jenna [00:32:06] I only remembered gruel. I didn't even remember gruel sandwiches!
Angela [00:32:09] I knew gruel and I remembered f**king Taco Bell.
Will F. [00:32:16] I don't remember.
Jenna [00:32:20] And does somebody say like, "Is that it?" And then he says, "Sometimes _____."
Will A. [00:32:24] He doesn't say "Sometimes," he says "and you can ____."
Angela [00:32:28] Yeah, I so remember him going [in a ghostly voice] "Gruel.
Will F. [00:32:31] "And you can eat your own hair."
Will A. [00:32:32] "You can eat her own hair," that's what it is. I'm still only giving you the one point.
Will F. [00:32:36] That's fair, that is fair because we worked it out as a team.
Will A. [00:32:40] Going back to Jenna and Angela. In "Benihana Christmas," when we have our rival Christmas parties, what is the budget of Angela's Christmas party and what is the budget of Pam and Karen's rival party?
Angela [00:32:53] Oh, 800 bucks? No, I remember thinking, "That's such a lot of money."
Jenna [00:32:58] I didn't even know Karen and I had a budget. Where did it come from?
Angela [00:33:03] I know. But I feel like one was 200, and one was more.
Jenna [00:33:08] But was it more by, like, a dollar? Because wasn't that their whole thing? That you had a budget of 200 and we had a of 201?
Angela [00:33:16] Yeah.
Jenna [00:33:17] That sounds sort of familiar.
Angela [00:33:19] 200, you think?
Jenna [00:33:20] I think 200 and 201. I want to lock in 200 and 201.
Will A. [00:33:27] That's gonna be two points. Correct.
Will F. [00:33:29] You're a secret assassin.
Will A. [00:33:31] I love watching the two of them.
Will F. [00:33:33] I know, cause they're trying to figure this out.
Will A. [00:33:35] It's really cool, it's really great.
Will F. [00:33:37] I was going to steal that one, that was a good steal.
Will A. [00:33:39] Alright, this is for Wilfred. When Angela is communicating with Dwight on his newly won walkie talkies, she uses the code name "monkey," of course. What's the code for Dwight?
Will F. [00:33:53] Possum.
Will A. [00:33:55] That is two points!
Will F. [00:33:57] Wow.
Will A. [00:33:58] That's good. That's a yellow though.
Will F. [00:34:00] We kidding? After the Sweeney Todd one? Everything's butter after that. Are you kidding?
Will A. [00:34:06] Alright, this is my favorite question and it's going to give you an opportunity for a lot of points. You're only trailing by three.
Jenna [00:34:15] Okay.
Angela [00:34:16] Oh gosh.
Will A. [00:34:16] We're going to give you a good opportunity to take the lead here.
Angela [00:34:19] Okay.
Will A. [00:34:20] So I'm going to give you one point if you can just answer the first part of the question.
Angela [00:34:24] Okay.
Will A. [00:34:24] And then you're going to get five bonus points.
Jenna [00:34:28] If what?
Will A. [00:34:28] If you can do the second part.
Angela [00:34:30] Oh, gosh.
Will F. [00:34:31] Oh, man.
Jenna [00:34:32] Oh, Gosh. Okay.
Will A. [00:34:33] And this will be great because then you'll have a chance to tie with your last question.
Angela [00:34:37] Oh, wow.
Will A. [00:34:38] Alright, what song does the office sing on the bus on the way home from beach day?
Jenna [00:34:44] Okay, on the way there, we sing "Shabooya Roll Call."
Angela [00:34:49] Is it Flintstones? [singing] Meet the Flintstones.
Jenna [00:34:52] I think we sing that on the way there. Here is what is hard for me with this one, is that I remember when we broke this down on Office Ladies, we discovered all of this deleted singing. We watched it, and we remembered singing it, and then now it's in the Superfan episode. So I can't remember what's in the broadcast version anymore. But maybe it's the Flintstones on the way home.
Angela [00:35:15] I thought Shabooya Roll Call was on the way there and Flintstones was on the way back.
Jenna [00:35:20] I will trust you on this.
Angela [00:35:21] Oh god.
Jenna [00:35:22] I will, because I can't remember.
Angela [00:35:26] Alright, well that's it, I guess.
Will A. [00:35:28] You gonna say the Flintstones theme song?
Angela [00:35:29] Yes.
Will A. [00:35:30] The Flintstones is correct, so you're going to get the point for that, and you can get the additional points.
Angela [00:35:39] Oh no.
Will A. [00:35:39] If you can sing it.
Angela [00:35:41] If we can sing it?
Jenna [00:35:42] If we can sing the Flintstones?
Will A. [00:35:43] If you can sing the Flintstones theme song.
Jenna [00:35:46] I think I can.
Angela [00:35:47] I can!
Jenna [00:35:48] You want to try?
Angela [00:35:50] Okay.
Angela [00:35:52] [singing in unison with Jenna] Flintstones! / Meet the Flintstones / they're a modern Stone Age family / from the town of bedrock / there a page right out of history
Jenna [00:36:07] [speaking to herself] They're a page right out of history... What comes next?
Angela [00:36:11] [singing] When you're with the Flintstones?
Jenna [00:36:14] No, that's the end. There's a bridge.
Angela [00:36:16] Oh, there's something about Fred.
Will A. [00:36:19] [singing a hint] Let's ride!
Angela [00:36:20] [singing with Jenna] With the family down the street / through the courtesy of Fred's two feet / when you're with the Flintstones / have a yabba dabba doo time / a dabba do time / you'll have a gay old time!
Jenna [00:36:40] You had to help us.
Angela [00:36:39] You had to help us with that little bridge.
Will A. [00:36:42] But, to be fair though, you nailed the first part of the song.
Angela [00:36:45] I remembered "courtesy of Fred's two feet," but I forgot how to get there. And then what's the one where they shout out everyone? That's the Jetsons.
Will F. [00:36:54] [singing] Meet George Jetson, his boy Elroy!
Will A. [00:37:03] So you are up by two. So Wilfred,
Will F. [00:37:06] Yeah?
Will A. [00:37:06] You're getting a red question to tie this game. You might know this. What is the full name of the rabies run that is stated by Pam when she answers the phone? It's also on the front of the t-shirts.
Will F. [00:37:24] No... It's the "Dunder Mifflin Race for the Cure..." Oh, God... No, no, it's... [to Jenna] Did you know it?
Jenna [00:37:36] "Race for the Cure" is at the end, I think.
Will F. [00:37:37] Yeah, cuz then it also ends with him saying "Pro-Am"
Will A. [00:37:42] This one does not include the "Pro-Am."
Will F. [00:37:44] Oh, right, yeah. It's the "Dunder Mifflin Meredith Palmer Memorial 5K."
Angela [00:37:53] "Run for the Cure"
Jenna [00:37:55] "Rabies Awareness"
Angela [00:37:57] "Race for the cure" Something like that?
Jenna [00:37:59] I had to memorize that, you guys.
Will F. [00:38:05] The "Dunder Mifflin Meredith Palmer Memorial Race for the Cure 5k Pro-Am." Something like that, yeah.
Jenna [00:38:13] Rabies is in there.
Angela [00:38:15] Rabies Awareness, and something about "run for the cure" or something.
Will A. [00:38:20] You're very close, but not close enough. It is "Michael Scott's Dunder Mifflin's Scranton, Meredith Palmer Memorial Celebrity Rabies Awareness Fun Run Race for the Cure."
Will F. [00:38:42] Never would have gotten that. Never would've gotten that in a million years. No. That's great.
Will A. [00:38:46] Very good. So I can't give you that, unfortunately, but you did a great job.
Will F. [00:38:51] Well, thank you.
Will A. [00:38:51] You did a really good job.
Jenna [00:38:52] And you got a point, then.
Will A. [00:38:53] I'm taking the point, but I've only got two points so I'm not even in this game as it is right now...
Will F. [00:38:58] Can I sing the Flintstones?
Will A. [00:39:00] It's a little late, I think.
Jenna [00:39:02] I don't think we should have gotten a full five points for that Flintstones song.
Angela [00:39:05] I don't either.
Jenna [00:39:06] I would have given us two.
Angela [00:39:07] That's fine.
Will A. [00:39:09] If we want to just award two for that, then I will go back. But then you will be losing by one.
Will F. [00:39:14] No, that's not right.
Jenna [00:39:15] I think we would get three for that. Three or four maybe.
Angela [00:39:18] I think three.
Will F. [00:39:19] You should win by 1.
Angela [00:39:23] Well, first of all, that was so much fun.
Will F. [00:39:24] That was a ton of fun.
Jenna [00:39:25] That was so fun. So I guess we technically won, but I feel like we all won today.
Will F. [00:39:30] We all won today.
Will A. [00:39:31] We're calling it a tie because I took your advice to deduct two of your points for the Flintstones. So that is a straight-up 12-12 tie, which is really good. You all did really well.
Angela [00:39:41] I was so ready for, like, "What were the cats that Dwight didn't like in Angela's bed?" I was ready for that.
Will A. [00:39:48] We didn't even touch on cats. It was coming.
Angela [00:39:52] Well, Jenna and I came up with some questions for you guys.
Jenna [00:39:55] Yeah, we wanted to see a little bit of what you can do, Will Allen.
Will F. [00:40:00] You've seen what I can do, which is tie you. So I got nothing.
Angela [00:40:02] Well, these are gonna be ridiculous.
Jenna [00:40:05] I know, I'm realizing how easy mine are.
Angela [00:40:08] Do you want to take turns? Like, you do one, I do one?
Jenna [00:40:10] Sure.
Will A. [00:40:11] Do we get to work together?
Jenna [00:40:13] Sure, sure.
Will F. [00:40:13] Oh, we're one team?
Will A. [00:40:14] I think that should be the Will Hour.
Jenna [00:40:15] Alright, I'll go first. Michael Scott has color-coded notes in his Rolodex. What does green mean?
Will A. [00:40:24] "Go ahead and stop."
Will F. [00:40:25] "Go ahead and stop."
Will A. [00:40:25] Go ahead and don't talk about it, yeah.
Jenna [00:40:28] That's not exactly right. You're close, but I would like it word for word.
Will A. [00:40:31] Oh, "Go ahead and shut up about it."
Will F. [00:40:33] Is that what it is?
Will A. [00:40:34] Yeah, "Go ahead and shut up about it."
Jenna [00:40:35] What does orange mean?
Will A. [00:40:37] Orange means "orange you glad you didn't bring it up?"
Will F. [00:40:40] They're all just colors to make sure you don't mention anything.
Jenna [00:40:47] Well, do you have one more, Ange?
Angela [00:40:49] I mean, I do, but here we go. In "Ben Franklin," how does Michael refer to the party planning committee as they plan for Phyllis's wedding?
Will A. [00:40:59] Is it the PCP?
Will F. [00:41:01] Is it? No.
Will A. [00:41:03] I mean, he's a fool.
Will F. [00:41:04] No, but I think it's something vaguely sexual squad. Or something like that. It's something inappropriate, isn't it?
Will A. [00:41:11] Michael Scott would never say anything inappropriate. You're barking up the wrong tree.
Will F. [00:41:16] It's something vaguely "ew."
Will A. [00:41:19] How do I not know that? I don't I'm just getting embarrassed.
Angela [00:41:23] Here's my hint, it is not "Party Planning Bi**chas."
Jenna [00:41:26] That's a Christmas one, right?
Angela [00:41:28] Yeah, it's not that. He has his, what he walks in and calls them. I have a clip if you'd like to hear it.
Will F. [00:41:34] Yes, please.
Will A. [00:41:34] I would like to hear it.
Will F. [00:41:35] Yes, I would too.
Angela [00:41:35] Okay, can we play the clip?
clip from The Office - Michael [00:41:37] What's up, Spin Stars?
Will A. [00:41:40] Yes, damn it! Oh my gosh, I used to quote that all the time.
Will F. [00:41:50] That's a great one.
Will A. [00:41:51] Y'all, the hot seat is hot.
Will F. [00:41:53] Yeah, right?
Will A. [00:41:54] I'm amazed y'all scored as well as you did.
Angela [00:41:58] I feel so good about our stumper questions.
Will A. [00:42:02] The number of rooms I've walked into and said, "What's up Spin Stars."
Will F. [00:42:05] Oh, that's a good one, too. Yeah.
Angela [00:42:08] Oh, you guys, thank you.
Jenna [00:42:10] This was so fun.
Will F. [00:42:12] Thank you for having me.
Angela [00:42:13] Will you please come back and do this with us?
Will F. [00:42:15] I'm going to do a heck of a lot more research next time, I'm telling you.
Will A. [00:42:19] I've only got thousands of potential questions. As I was just rewatching the whole thing with my wife, we would literally go like, "Oh, that's an Oscar question, if Oscar does it. ""Oh, that's a Kevin question." So we've created side folders.
Jenna [00:42:30] I like this idea. We need to get more cast members in here and quiz them.
Angela [00:42:36] "The Office, the trivia, with Will and Will."
Will F. [00:42:46] Thank you for having us!
audio cue [00:42:46] [musical sting]
Jenna [00:42:50] Well, that could not have been more fun.
Angela [00:42:52] So fun. I'm serious. I want Will Allen to do more quizzes, and then we have a guest. So Will Friedle (who we called Wilfred) was in the hot seat next to him versus us. But I think we need to have Office cast members sit in the Hot Seat.
Jenna [00:43:07] I know, I love this idea.
Angela [00:43:09] And then of course, Wilfred you're invited back anytime.
Jenna [00:43:11] Of course. Of course! Well, listen, why don't we do a little...
audio cue [00:43:16] [Around the Town sting plays]
Jenna [00:43:18] There it is.
Angela [00:43:19] [laughing] It scared me.
Jenna [00:43:20] Angela, why don't you start?
Angela [00:43:21] Okay, this first one is from Megan H. in Walkertown, North Carolina. But Megan is formerly from Eugene, Oregon. Megan says, "Hi, Office Ladies. I'm breaking the rules a little because I actually don't live here anymore. But this tradition is so amazing, I needed to share. My former home of Eugene, Oregon has a yearly tradition of crowning a SLUG; which stands for the "Society for the Legitimization of the Ubiquitous Gastropod" Queen (by popular vote) each August. The Slug Queen then acts as an informal goodwill ambassador for the city for the following year, usually championing a philanthropic cause close to her heart. The 44th Slug queen was just crowned a couple of weeks ago amist much fanfare and costumery. Even though I don't live in Eugene anymore, I always check the local paper online each year to keep up with this wacky and wonderful tradition. I couldn't tell you how it started. Maybe a case for Mom Detectives? Hope you enjoy."
Jenna [00:44:29] Well, I looked this up online because I was so intrigued. This year's reigning slug queen is Mugsy W. Slugsy, known to the human world as Margarita O'Brien. So congratulations.
Angela [00:44:45] I also like the Mom Detective's assignment of finding the origin of the slug queen, because we've had a lot of folks writing in with marching orders. Like, topics they want us to Mom Detective. I'm just saying, we should throw this in the folder.
Jenna [00:44:59] Happy to do it.
Angela [00:45:00] Happy to research.
Jenna [00:45:02] I think we'd need to go to one of these, though, to really properly research it.
Angela [00:45:05] To really do it up.
Jenna [00:45:06] Right? Alright. Next Around the Town is from Amanda B. in Allentown, Pennsylvania who said, "In August, our nearby town of Bethlehem Steel (which still stands and the song 'Allentown' was written about) held their annual music fest, which is the largest free musical festival in the nation. There are over 400 performers and 500 performances over 10 days and over 1 million visitors from around the world. This year, my husband and I took our 10-year-old Kodiak and almost 12-year old Cecilia (Cici) to see AJR. Wow, let me tell you, they put on an amazing show and are very involved with the audience. They even had a kid with a sign saying, 'I can play any AJR song with my harmonica.' So they brought up this young teen and had him play the songs."
Angela [00:45:59] That's so cool.
Jenna [00:46:00] "AJR even came out to the back stands, where we were, to play 'World's Smallest Violin.' All I could think about was the Office Netflix song they sing and how you gals had him on the show. If you ever get the chance to see them in concert, this is a must."
Angela [00:46:16] That is so great. And he knows tons of Office trivia.
Jenna [00:46:20] Yes, he does.
Angela [00:46:21] Yes, He does. Alright, well, I'm gonna wrap up our Around the Town with something really kind of fun. Since it is October, this is from Eileen M. in Ireland. "Dear Office Ladies, love the podcast. I wanted to write to you about something kind of fun I think you'll like. Since the two of you love mystery dinner theater."
Jenna [00:46:42] I have performed in Mystery Dinner Theater, Eileen.
Angela [00:46:45] We have discussed this. I think Eileen knows that, and we have discussed we'd like to do it together, Jenna. I was just at this fan convention and someone came up to me and was like, "I really want you and Jenna to come do Mystery Dinner Theater in my hometown." Okay, back to Eileen's letter. Eileen said, "There's a really fun Halloween murder mystery dinner party in Cork." Eileen included a link, you guys. And so I went to it and it says, "Looking for a fun and unique night out in Cork? Get ready for an unforgettable murder mystery dinner party at the Village Douglas and Douglas Cork." And then it says, "It's a dinner with a twist. Someone is about to die and everyone is a suspect." Anyway, I guess the murder mystery unfolds naturally throughout the dinner and I think that'd be a fun way to spend Halloween.
Jenna [00:47:35] I think so too. That's literally what my Murder Mystery Dinner Theater was. It starts with you being seated, getting a salad, and then I would run into the room and say, "Murder! There's been a murder!"
Angela [00:47:47] I guess this one has a detective Jacques Clueless. Well, Eileen, I love that. I love to see how people celebrate holidays, just all over.
Jenna [00:47:57] Well, this was such a fun episode. Like you said, Angela, we have to do this Office trivia again. We just want to give a big final thank you to Will Allen and also to Will Friedle, who by the way (he wants you to know) has got a book coming out, The Pod Meets World folks. They have a book out called "Book Meets World." It is in stores November 10th, so you can pre-order it now.
Angela [00:48:21] Yeah, and of course you guys know their podcast. It's fantastic. It's called Pod Meets World. It is now available on Disney Plus. So you can listen to it wherever you get your podcasts, or you can go over to Disney Plus, how cool is that?
Jenna [00:48:33] Love it.
Angela [00:48:34] Alright, you guys. Well, we hope you have a great week and we love you.
Jenna [00:48:38] See you next week.
Angela [00:48:39] Yeah!
