Description

Troubled Waters is the pop culture quiz show where comedians disagree to disagree. Twice a month, Dave will stoke pointless arguments between two teams of comedians and make them compete against each other in order to settle their meaningless debates once and for all. Winner takes home the right to be right.

C is a programming language from 1972, one of the best known and most used, even today. Rust is a programming language from 2006 which competes with C and might even be starting to displace it finally. In 2022, Rust became the third programming language used in the Linux kernel, after C and Assembly. So, to programmers, this episode title is reeeaaaally confusing. It's like calling your episode "Chiefs vs Eagles" because one contestant described an executive meeting and the other scored especially well at golf.

Unfortunately, the sound quality on this recording was irregular. Couldn't understand Dave Holmes most of the time under yet didn't even know Alicia Silverstone was the theme for the questions in the 1st quiz till the 3rd question. S voice ranged from loud to inaudible.
