05:10Kevin Iannone joins us from Flagstaff, Arizona, where he's a trivia host.
05:14I love it.
05:14Where do you host, Kevin?
05:16We do weekly pub quizzes as well as private parties, corporate events, stuff like that.
05:22Are you like a Flagstaff trivia celebrity?
05:24I hope to be.
05:26I have been spotted in places where people are like, you're the trivia guy.
05:29So I have a little bit of that, but yeah.
05:31I get that a little bit too.
05:33Congratulations.
05:33It's an elite club we're in.
05:35Also with us, Divya Sreejay, originally from Spartanburg, South Carolina.
05:39You are a student with a crop.

05:49Another individual from South Carolina, his name is Edward Curry.
05:51He broke the record for the spiciest pepper in 2001 with the Carolina Reaper.
05:56Wow.
05:56But he recently broke his own record with Pepper X.
05:58And my friends and I love spicy peppers, but we didn't get a chance to try Pepper X
06:02because he didn't release it to the public.
06:04So we decided we were going to grow our own peppers.
06:06And so I have an indoor greenhouse, like the size of my shoulder,
06:09growing Carolina Reapers and ghost peppers and various other secret peppers.
06:13Possibly peppers X through Z.
06:14Like you want to beat the record, maybe?

06:27Yes.
06:28Which is?
06:28Six.
06:29And why is six your favorite number?
06:31Because F is the sixth letter of the alphabet, and F is my favorite letter.
06:37Dare I ask why F is your favorite letter?
06:39Because when I was a young kid, I found a stick that's shaped like an F,
06:42and I was very proud of myself.
06:43There's still a picture of me.
06:44And the stick is still in my parents' house somewhere.
06:46Yeah, I just love the letter F.
06:49Like, there are so many fun words like Flagstaff.
06:51I'd have a bunch of Fs.
06:52For example, I love that we still have the stick.
06:54If you keep winning on Jeopardy, the F stick could be in the Smithsonian someday, right?
