First, our last trivia answer:
And the correct responses include:
- Capt. Jeffrey T. Spaudling (Ret.) asked: “Where was the site for which the United States government contracted with the Crosley Broadcasting Corporation to build a radio station capable of broadcasting its message around the world - which utlimately became the Voice of America?”
- Our brilliant and sensational former colleague Brian K. Mabry asked: “Where is the location of the former Voice of America transmission station that still has a boiler dating from the Eisenhower Administration?”
- And DADvocate asked: “where is 700 WLW radio’s tower located. WLW is the home of two fine conservative talk show hosts, Mike McConnell and Bill Cunningham. Cunningham is the originator of Sean Hannity’s “You’re a great American.” phrase.”
Now, the next Extreme Trivia answer: President Theodore Roosevelt’s Nobel Peace Prize, which he won in 1907 for helping to end the Russo-Japanese War.
What’s the question?
