S20 E1 - Yuck!

We are officially back for our final season, and Justin starts us off by finally finishing our sporadic six-part series on the basic emotions, with a whole quiz about disgust and disgusting stuff. We also get a little queasy talking about classical music, football, and movies! 2:55: Q1 (Music): What classical composer wrote numerous scatological pieces, including Leck mich im Arsch – “Lick me in the ass” – though Eine kleine Nachtmusik is performed more often these days? 8:54: Q2 (Sports & Games): In one of the most disgusting and horrifying moments in sports history, Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor broke quarterback Joe Theismann’s leg in two places, ending his career. What team did Theismann play for (either the current name or the name at the time is acceptable). 18:06: Q3 (Times & Places): The Erfurt latrine disaster involved about 60 noblemen drowning in human excrement after King Henry VI of Germany called an assembly. Despite this, what other, more powerful title was bestowed on Henry in 1191 by Pope Celestine III? 25:55: Q4 (Movies & TV): Known as much for his signature pencil mustache as for his transgressive films, what director’s work includes the so-called “trash trilogy” of Pink Flamingos, Female Trouble, and Desperate Living ? 31:06: Q5 (Arts & Literature): What famous muckraking journalist said about his most famous (and famously gross) novel, “I aimed at the public’s heart, and by accident I hit it in the stomach”? 36:45: Q6 (Everything Else): What psychologist developed the theory of basic emotions and originally studied disgust, along with happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, and fear?
