Hello, Smarty Pants and welcome to Trusty Trivia Thursday.
Today we're soaring through the skies and diving into the lore of the most mythical creatures known to humankind.
Dragons! Before I play Trusty Trivia with you Smarty Pants, I want to give a big shout out to Ila M and Family in Diamond Springs.
They wrote to say, we love who's smarted because of the interesting content and the very funny narrator.
It is a staple on every car trip and we have listened to every episode as a family.
Thanks for the incredible podcast.
Huh, well thank you for being such an incredible Smarty family.
Now, let's hatch some facts about these legendary creatures, the dragons.
First question. Which culture is known for dragons that are typically seen as wise and benevolent creatures?
Is it A, the Norse? B, Chinese?
Or C, European? Did you pick B, brilliant?
Chinese dragons are often depicted as symbols of power, strength and good luck, contrasting with their more menacing European counterparts.
First question. Is the famous knight that slayed a dragon to save a princess?
Was it A, Sir Lancelot? B, Sir Galaad?
Or C, St. George? Did you true C, that is chivalrously correct?
St. George is celebrated for his legendary feet of slaying a dragon to rescue a princess, a tale that symbolizes the victory of good over evil.
Second question. What is the name of the dragon in J.R.R.
Tolkien's The Hobbit, who guards a vast treasure?
Is it A, Smog? B, Fafnir?
Or C, Traco? Did you pick A?
You are absolutely on fire.
Smog is the fearsome dragon in the Hobbit, known for his greed, intelligence and the immense treasure he hordes under the Lonely Mountain.
