Guess or Mess: Margaret Thatcher | Kids Shows

Welcome to the Game Show by PragerU Kids! I'm Noah, and in this show, if you answer a question fast and correctly, you avoid getting totally gross and messy. Joining us today, we've got... Charlie. And we've got... Jackie. Before coming here today, each of you read our PragerU Kids digital magazine about Margaret Thatcher from our website. Now, we're going to test how much of it you remember. Here are your messes for today. Blue goo. Pickle juice spray. Gefilte fish. Water beads. Seven-layer dip. Frosting and sprinkles. Flour. Raw eggs. Cheese spray. And a pie in the face. Before we play, Margaret Thatcher was the first woman to serve as the Prime Minister of Great Britain from 1979 to 1990. She was the only 20th century British Prime Minister to serve three terms in a row. She was such a strong leader that she was nicknamed the Iron Lady. Thatcher did not like the way socialism took away people's liberty and believed in individual responsibility. During her time as Prime Minister, Thatcher worked hard to empower citizens. The British economy improved and people's lives got better. Thatcher and American President Ronald Reagan worked together against Soviet communism to win the Cold War. Are you ready to play the game? Yes. The youngest player goes first. So that's Jackie. Everybody get your hands into the bowl. You're not allowed to take them out for the whole game. If you do, you lose one point. Let's go, Jackie. Here's your first question. When a country has a parliamentary system, like Great Britain, their political leader has the title of a President, a Prime Minister, or a King? Prime Minister. That is correct. The answer is a Prime Minister. So you know what that means? Charlie gets the mess. No. How do you like frosting on your arm? Should we be done? Yeah. No. I don't think so. I hope he likes sprinkles. Oh, no. Sprinkles everywhere. You look like a cupcake. Do you just eat it? Question and mess number two goes to Charlie. Thanks to her opposition to communism, what was Margaret Thatcher's famous nickname? The Iron Lady. That is correct. Her nickname was the Iron Lady. Oh, no. It's so cold. I'm sorry. How's that? Oh, it feels kind of good. I have to take a nice shower after this. Question and mess number three goes to Jackie again. How many consecutive terms did Margaret Thatcher serve as Great Britain's Prime Minister? It is a record. Three. That is correct. It is three. Margaret Thatcher was the first woman in the United Kingdom to become Prime Minister. She served from 1979 until 1990. Charlie, that means the next mess goes to you. Seven-layer dip. You like beans? No. That smells disgusting. Frosting and beans together? Are you going to lick this one? No. Ew. Oh, it stinks. Question and mess number four goes to Charlie. Margaret Thatcher lost the first two elections where she ran for office. True or false? True. That is correct. It is true. Water beads. Ready? What is that? This alarm means that it's time for a Patriot Pop quiz. You each get a chance to answer a trivia question about America that was not in the Margaret Thatcher digital magazine. But there's a twist. You're gonna be blindfolded. What was the King of England's name when our founding fathers declared freedom from Great Britain in 1776? A. King William. B. King George III. C. King George VI. And D. King Charles. King Charles. Unfortunately, Jackie, that is not the right answer. But Charlie gets a chance to answer it now.

That is correct. It is King George III. No! King George III ruled Great Britain from 1760 until 1820 during America's Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. Jackie, you want to guess what your mess is? Eggs? Maybe it's eggs. I don't know. Is it eggs? Yes, it is eggs. Oh, no, it's flour. Oh, that feels good. Feels good? So good! It's like making a cake in your bowl. You make a cake, then bake it, then make people eat it. Patriot Pop Quiz question two goes to Charlie. What do the United States and Great Britain have in common today? A. Both countries have democratic ideals and values. B. People in both countries enjoy eating fries. C. Both countries have flags that are red, white, and blue. Or D. All of the above. Um, A. Jackie gets a chance to answer! Can you repeat the question, please? Yes, I can.

Both countries have flags that are red, white, and blue. Or D. All of the above. Red, white, and blue. The correct answer was D. All of the above. Fun fact! In Great Britain, they often call fries chips. So, neither of you guys answered correctly. So, you know what that means? Both of you get the mess. Do you know what it is? No, and I don't want to get it. It's a fish! Do you want fish juice? Do you like fish juice? Do you like fish on your hands? How about fish juice? Oh, oh, it stinks. What is in your bowl? Now, back to our magazine questions. Question MS number five goes to Jackie. Which U.S. president was Margaret Thatcher personal friends with? Ronald Reagan. That is correct! She was personal friends with Ronald Reagan. That was easy! Yeah! I don't even know if I knew that. It's all over the magazine. I think you taught me something. Do you like eggs? Uh, yeah, but not on my hands. Not on your hands? Charlie, I'm sorry! Oh, egg whites! A little more, a little more! Okay, question MS number six goes to Charlie. Thatcher pushed British citizens to work hard and believe in themselves instead of wanting the blank to support them. The government? That is correct, Charlie! It is government and socialist programs that they didn't want to support them. Thatcher criticized socialism for taking away liberties from the British people and giving privileges to government leaders. She preferred capitalism, which gave opportunity to people. Jackie! That's not all. I'm gonna get a big one. You ready? Do I have one on my face? What about pickles? Do you like pickles? Not at all. Ew, you can't smell that, right? You can't smell that, right? I can. Question MS number seven goes to Jackie. After they invaded the British-controlled Falkland Islands in 1982, Margaret Thatcher decided to go to war against which South American country? Um... Two? Four? That means you're out of time. That means Charlie gets a chance to answer. After they invaded the British-controlled Falkland Islands in 1982, Margaret Thatcher decided to go to war against which South American country? Uh, Argentina. That is correct. It is Argentina. Jackie, I'm sorry to do this to you again. Let's shake it up first. Okay. What is this? What is that? It's cheese. Ew, ew, ew. Ew! I don't know what you're doing. What are you doing? Listen. Listen to the sound. Listen. Okay, okay. Question MS number eight. This is our last question and our last mess. Goes to Charlie. What did Margaret Thatcher believe would happen to people if their government took care of their basic needs? You didn't answer in time, so Jackie gets a chance to answer. What did Margaret Thatcher believe would happen to the people if their government took care of their basic needs? Five, four, three, two, one. Both got it wrong. The right answer was that the people cannot reach their full potential. They get lazy. Their ambition is killed. Yada, yada, yada. Both of you get the mess. What's the last mess? Crash that pickle. Okay. Should I do it all the way? All the way. Keep going. Okay, that's it. Now for the fun part. Chocolate sauce. It's gonna get in my mouth and I'm gonna be very, very happy. Whoa. Who wants to go first? Me. Really? Yes. That tasted very good. Your turn. Fire in your face. That tasted so good. I can't see anything. Here's what we learned. Margaret Thatcher was the first woman to serve as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990. She supported limited government, free markets, nationalism, and individualism. Her nickname was the Iron Lady, thanks to her strong opposition to communism. Winner is, drumroll please, Charlie! You've won a Proud to be an American medal and a jar full of American coins. Why coins? Because our American mottos are printed on all coins. In God we trust, liberty, and E Pluribus Unum. What does E Pluribus Unum mean? Do you guys know? Do you know?
