    E4: How Do You Like Them Ample? (Bank of Utah '26)

    Clue 4 of the Bank of Utah Where's the Wallet Cash Quest is out, and it is four lines of pure anagram bait. What's something that's sweet that you always want ample. Solve for M and you'll have something for the old hippocampal. Look for a place that's in the wrong spot, that's pretty and fun and feels like a plot. We ran the whole thing through a new segment called Start, Bench, Cut. Maple started, apple got benched, jingles got cut. Slope started, because M is slope. On hippocampal, Christian went full Greek mythology: the hippocampus is a creature with the head and body of a horse and the tail of a fish, horses get apples as treats, and the thing in the wrong spot is the tail. That is Horsetail Falls in Alpine, which sits in Phelps Canyon, which is the trail from last week's census question. It rated a 6.8. Chad liked the orchard on Dry Creek better. Also: the bonus clue came out as narcissus, which is a genus of daffodil, one week after we spent an episode on Wordsworth and the daffodils. Confirmation bias at its absolute best, and Christian's confidence in Alpine went down anyway. If you're here for real solve work, there's an anagram, a slope, and a 16th century anatomist in here. If you're here for Dolphin To Go, we have that too. In This Episode: Chad wants a spreadsheet tracking everyone who speaks in absolutes about their solveMaple or apple, and whether the line even has to make sense in the sentenceSolve for M, where M is slope, John Moyle, or nothing at allWhether they picked ample to rhyme with hippocampal or hippocampal to rhyme with ampleThe big P on the Alpine mountain, which is on Peterson's land and is therefore in the wrong spotPlot as a cemetery plot, a literary device, a garden bed, or the button on a TI-83Half-baked ideas, biggest robberies, and the worst lines from past hunt poemsLast week's question is answered: the one Alpine trail that shares a name with the 1850 census is Phelps Canyon. One ask. People have been searching the Alpine Cemetery. It's not there, we've looked, and it's a real cemetery with real families buried in it. Please leave it alone. We're hitting the trail this week and doing an Instagram Live from it. With audio this time. #utah #treasure #utahtreasurehunt #bankofutah #wheresthewallet

    E3: You Can Barrow This Solve (Bank of Utah '26)

    This one has pickup lines, an argument about whether paragliding counts as transportation, a longer argument about whether a Caterpillar tractor counts as a big cat, three separate definitions of the word barrow, a game we stole from an improv troupe, and then, eventually, actual treasure hunt theories. Clue 3 of the Bank of Utah Where's the Wallet Cash Quest is out, and Christian walked in with a solve the other two had never heard. The lonely soul who danced among the flowers is William Wordsworth, who wrote "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud." Alpine, Utah was settled by a William Wadsworth, and it started out as Fort Mountainville, a mud fort. A very muddy ville. From the monument at Legacy Park you walk straight up Main Street, no turns, to the Alpine Cemetery at the base of Cemetery Hill. A barrow placed below the hill. On Clue 1 he has moved off Promontory Point and onto the Golden Spoke monument at the Point of the Mountain, one letter off the Golden Spike and sitting right on the Salt Lake and Utah county line. Clue 2 still has us beat. Everything we find points at Lehi, and Lehi is a city, not a county. If you are here for real solve work, there is a poem, an 1850 census, and a fault line in here. If you are here for five minutes on whether a tractor is a big cat, we have that too. In This Episode: Caden explains the new no-gatekeeping policy: he does not believe in us, he believes in the audienceThe Golden Spoke, which is technically a plaque, which Christian keeps calling a monumentFollow the big cats, and no, not the CougarsChristian calling his own confirmation bias out loud before the solve, because he and Caden both grew up in AlpineA barrow is a burial mound, a wheelbarrow, or a castrated male pig, and only one of those helpsHey Baby, a new pickup line segment that Christian swept in three roundsChristian goes on record at 72 percent Listener challenge: there is exactly one trail in Alpine that shares a name with someone on the 1850 census carved into that cemetery monument. Christian knows which one and will not say it. Go find it and tell us. If you send us a solve and you do not want us talking about it on the show, say so and we will not. Next week, Christian's new segment: the Seven Habits of Highly Ineffective Treasure Hunters. #utah #treasure #utahtreasurehunt #bankofutah #wheresthewallet

    E2: Locomotive? I hardly know 'ive. (Bank of Utah '26)

    Clue one was a gentle lob right over the plate. Clue two came in and completely rocked our confidence. Caden, Christian, and Chad dig into Bank of Utah's second clue for the "Where's the Wallet" Cash Quest, and things get weird fast — is it about locomotives, automotives, or just plain old motives? Is Box Elder County still in play, or did we all fall for the misdirection the clue literally warned us about? We revisit the Box Elder theory (sweet sap, unsettled territory, Promontory Point train ties), float a Weber County curveball, and yes, someone brings up Cache County purely because it lets us say "Cache my Cache Quest" out loud. Buckle up. Got a theory better than ours? Send it our way — happy to read it on the show, or keep you anonymous if you'd rather just quietly be smarter than us. Leave us a review! Every episode we pick a favorite and send that reviewer $25. Make us laugh, make us think, or just tell us we're wrong about Box Elder. In This Episode: Caden's 5-year-best solve streak gets a shoutout (thanks, dude)Six-legged vs. eight-legged, and Highway 8 vs. Highway 6"We're cashing up" — an instant classic, we don't make the rulesLocomotive → automotive → literal motive, a philosophical journeyBox Elder trees have sap you can tap, and now you know tooThe Cache County pitch that may or may not just be brand loyaltyA Utah trivia bonus round, because five words really can be "Under the Banner of Heaven"

    E1: This Cash Quest is B-A-N-A-N-A-S (Bank of Utah '26)

    We are back after a year and a half, new hunt, new poem, new pig. This is the Bank of Utah Where's the Wallet Cash Quest, $20,000 on the line, and we are already behind schedule. Before we get anywhere near clue one, Chad becomes a farmer's market guy, Caden gets stranded in Chicago like Home Alone, Christian debuts a segment he did not run by anyone, and somebody says a word he cannot explain why he said. Then we actually break down the first stanza and land hard on Promontory Point. Motive means locomotive. Connection means the two rail lines meeting. Box Elder County, here we come. If you are here for the solve, it is in there. If you are here to watch one host go zero for the night on every single bet he makes, that is also in there. Best review on this episode wins $25. Extra credit if your name is Janet, for reasons that will make sense about 33 minutes in. In This Episode: Christian keeps calling you readers and will not be stoppedA word association segment that makes no sense until it makes perfect senseHow Long Will It Take, our new game with no rules and no clear winnerA goalkeeper riddle nobody solved and a banana riddle nobody wantedThe pig side quest, and the one they hid 50 yards from our officeTonksville, a real city in Box Elder County that we definitely did not make upBuy a zucchini, get a Cache Me Outside hatThe entire preamble to the Constitution, performed live and mostly wrongWhether the ground under Utah Lake is going to liquifySend us your theories on clue two. If you send an audio message we will play it. If you sing it, that is a guarantee.

    E2: Blessed Belles Win Bank Bounty... Before Us (WALLET 2025)

    The Bank of Utah's Where’s the Wallet Cash Quest has come to a close—and spoiler: we didn’t win. But the winners did agree to come on our podcast and tell us how they solved it, so that’s something.In this episode, we interview the dream team behind the find (Jeanette, Koaly, and Stazie), who cracked the clues, avoided the rabbit holes, and hiked to the exact right rock—while the rest of us were still arguing about fonts in Clue 2.We also talk about what this year’s hunt did right (charity prize, solid clues, actual feasting metaphors), what we hope Bank of Utah does next year (don’t give up on us), and what it felt like to lose to people way nicer and more competent than us.Please excuse the occasional weird edit—we had technical issues, including a lost original recording. The interview you hear is technically Take Two, but still full of heart, screaming, and a cave wallet.#utah #treasure #treasurehunts #bankofutah #podcast
