Weak Sauce has a new special ingredient

Weak Sauce has a new team member!! Denise's husband Pete joined us to add his knowledge of history and science.  The three of us know so much about so little and yet none of the questions seemed focused on any of our areas of expertise.  But it made us all feel better to tell each other random facts that had nothing to do with the quiz.  (Did you know that Tolkein coined the term "elven" and - little known fact from Chi - the plague was spread by hamsters?)    For the record, Pete is NOT googling an answer below.  I think he was translating something into Elvish.

 Bonus movie round.  Even after hearing the answers I have no idea what  number 7 is.  Is that Lionel Ritchie??

Yikes - Hockey Hall of Fame?!  This is when we all agreed we need Bill!!  We are missing our sports guy!!  Luckily Pete knew Wayne Gretsky.  Another team just wrote Bobby Orr for every answer figuring they would get at least one right but turns out he wasn't on here.
