Speaker A:

Sound statistics.

Speaker A:

Sound statistics.

Speaker A:

Guess the number, hear the clue.

Speaker A:

Sound statistics.

Speaker A:

Sound statistics.

Speaker A:

Haystacks.

Speaker A:

Got a question for you.

Speaker B:

That's right.

Speaker B:

It is the game show where I give you a trivia question and then a sound effect for a hint.

Speaker B:

Because apparently I found a way to make trivia even nerdier.

Speaker B:

All right, question one.

Speaker B:

11% Of people will do this with their significant other in the next two weeks.

Speaker B:

Now, of course, that could be a lot of things.

Speaker B:

Go on vacation, start a diet together, have the same argument about where to eat for the 400th time.

Speaker B:

All right, here's your sound effect hint.

Speaker B:

That is the hang up sound from FaceTime, right?

Speaker B:

The answer is break up.

Speaker B:

11% Of people will break up with their significant other in the next two weeks.

Speaker B:

Can you believe that?

Speaker B:

That's huge.

Speaker B:

11%.

Speaker B:

That's why We need to Talk is the scariest four word sentence in the English language.

Speaker B:

That's wild.

Speaker B:

All right, we're going to.

Speaker B:

We're going to stick to a theme here.

Speaker B:

Question 2.

Speaker B:

15% Of those who cheat on their significant other on this type of a pet.

Speaker B:

And now I'm not saying the pet is involved.

Speaker B:

I'm not saying the pet is to blame, but I'm not saying the pet is not to blame either.

Speaker B:

All right, here's your sound effect hint.

Speaker B:

That is a snake, of course.

Speaker B:

And the answer is snake or other reptile.

Speaker B:

15% Of those who cheat on a snake or other reptile, which feels a little bit like foreshadowing.

Speaker B:

I mean, nothing says, trust me, like some guy with a terrarium and secret text messages.

Speaker B:

Question number three.

Speaker B:

30% Of women in a recent survey say they will not marry a man.

Speaker B:

Bad.

Speaker B:

With this reminder, it is a family show.

Speaker B:

There are a lot of things that could be deal breakers, of course.

Speaker B:

Bad hygiene, bad manners, a bad fantasy football team name that he thinks is funny from 20 years ago.

Speaker B:

Here is your sound effect hint.

Speaker B:

That is Apple Pay's decline sound effect.

Speaker B:

The answer.

Speaker B:

A bad credit score.

Speaker B:

30% Of women say they will not marry a man with a bad credit score, which means romance is alive and well, but only after a soft pull from Experian.

Speaker B:

And I guess that's fair.

Speaker B:

I mean, for richer or poorer sounds pretty great until you find out the poorer comes with a 30% interest rate.

Speaker B:

So there you go.

Speaker B:

Sound statistics, weird numbers, noisy clues, and proof that love may be blind, but it still checks your credit score.

Speaker A:

Nerdy.

Speaker A:

It's noisy.

Speaker B:

It's facts with a kick.

Speaker A:

Sound statistics, sound statistics.
