I saw this very impressive video on TikTok yesterday where this guy was out on the street. You know how people do this. They go and ask people questions to test their knowledge, their world knowledge. And he was interviewing this young girl. And she just started to absolutely school this guy.

And she goes on and on and on. She knew them all.
How did the viral TikTok of a capital-city whiz kick off the segment?
I think I was most impressed by New Zealand because everyone just goes Auckland.
Pretty good, eh?
Yeah.
Unbelievable. I thought we could test the young person on our show, producer Ella. On her capital city knowledge. This isn't fair. This is a stitch up. It is. Because you know I'm not good at geography. I like to call this game, Ella's got to get those capital games. Hey, is that a money thing? Yeah. Nice. Anyway, it doesn't matter.
