1
00:00:19.399 --> 00:00:22.440
Hi everyone, I am Jeff and welcome to History and Factor.

2
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:27.039
It's about today. Today's April the fourteenth show.

3
00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:29.839
Lostings.

4
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:47.679
It is National xpouse Day. Now, I'm not over half

5
00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:49.079
of you out there. Yeah, I have one of those

6
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:51.600
running around out there. Just got to keep that gate

7
00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:52.840
closed so they can't get back in.

8
00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:53.439
Now.

9
00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:55.560
Today is to encourage those who have gone through it

10
00:00:55.600 --> 00:00:58.479
of ours to forgive their X and move on. Now.

11
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:00.920
It might not seem like it, but given someone it's

12
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.520
for you, it's not for them. Forgiveness it's the only

13
00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:05.599
way to get past the anger of bitter miss that

14
00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:07.480
you might have towards them. Yeah, and if you do,

15
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:10.439
that'll hold you back later on in life. Just moving forward, Yeah,

16
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:12.959
that's easier said than done. Just realize your ex is

17
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:15.560
your ex and your life it's ahead of you. That's

18
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:17.840
all ahead of you now. If it helps. They came

19
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:20.079
up with a mantra for today. It says, I'm good

20
00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:22.959
your history. I'm living my life with someone better. I

21
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:25.760
put that last part in now, truly make an effort

22
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:28.239
today to try and get over your ex wife, our

23
00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:31.120
ex husband, and just say good riddance and enjoy your

24
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:33.799
life from now on. I think they have xpouse day

25
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:35.680
of the one day before your income taxes due for

26
00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:40.079
any particular reason. All right, what was going on entertainment

27
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:42.239
on nine Pril fourteenth. Let's go back to nineteen eighty six.

28
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:45.519
Number one album was Whitney Houston by Whitney Houston. Falco

29
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:47.959
had the number one song with Rockney Amadas.

30
00:01:51.400 --> 00:02:23.080
To You, because.

31
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:12.919
Ricky Skaggs had the number one country song with Cajun Moon.

32
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:26.800
That's why, just.

33
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:31.400
To Eleving shut on me.

34
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.280
The number one book was The Born Supremacy by Robert Ludlam.

35
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:41.639
The top movie was The Money Pit. Now Tom Hanks

36
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.039
and Chili Long they buy a really crappy house and

37
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.039
they're gonna have a great time well fixing it up,

38
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:48.879
and it doesn't go so well. All right, let's see

39
00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:51.599
what happened in the world. On April the fourteenth, eighteen

40
00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:55.000
twenty eight, the first American Dictionary was published by Noah Webster.

41
00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:58.280
You called that the American Dictionary of the English Language.

42
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.080
Now you might have not notice this, but see we

43
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:03.439
talk a little different than they do over in England. Yeah,

44
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:06.919
but we still used Webster's English Dictionary today. Yeah, no

45
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:08.639
one looks at the book though, I don't even know

46
00:03:08.840 --> 00:03:11.439
after people could look it up. Yeah, just go online

47
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:14.919
that original dictionary seventy thousand words. The dictionary that came

48
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:18.560
out this year, four hundred and seventy thousand words. Now,

49
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:20.120
don't you hate it though, when you go into spell

50
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:21.800
check and you type into words so bad that he

51
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.800
doesn't even know what you're trying to spell. Eighteen sixty five,

52
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:27.120
President Nave Lincoln was shot by John Wiggs Booth while

53
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:29.879
he was watching a play at the Fourth Theater. Lincoln,

54
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:34.080
He's gonna die tomorrow. United States Secretary of State William Seaward. Yeah,

55
00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:36.639
he was attacked by some of Brute's conspirators also, but

56
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:40.520
he lived. Eighteen ninety six, Battle Creek, Michigan. Doctor James

57
00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:45.039
Kellogg he patented machine for making flake cereal and for

58
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:48.280
actually flake cereal. Well, he made this really crappy healthy

59
00:03:48.360 --> 00:03:50.879
cereal stuff. His brother Will Kellogg, he said, screw that.

60
00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:54.360
He started making corn flicks. Nineteen oh two, the first

61
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:57.479
DC penny store opened up. That was in kemera or Wyoming.

62
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.919
Still there, so if you're passing through, yeah, stop and

63
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:02.680
see some history. And they turned Tar Party into a

64
00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:06.319
museum Kemer. If you're not sure, it's between Diamondville and Frontier,

65
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:09.840
that's in the southwest part of the state. Nineteen ten,

66
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:12.520
President William Howard Taft, he started the tradition of the

67
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:15.000
president throwing out the first pitch on opening day of

68
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:18.000
the baseball season. Every president after him, they followed that

69
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:20.879
tradition well until Biden and Trump. But you know they

70
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:23.519
probably they are the oldest presidents we've ever had, so yeah,

71
00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:25.439
who knows, they might have seen Taft throw that first pitch.

72
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:29.680
Nineteen twelve, at eleven thirty seven pm, the unsinkable ship

73
00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:32.079
the Titanic hit an Iceberg. I guess we'll have to

74
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:34.680
wait till tomorrow and see how it turns out. Nineteen

75
00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:37.279
thirty five, known as Black Sunday, one of the worst

76
00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:40.319
dust storms in the United States history hit the Great Plains,

77
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:44.160
I mean eastern or Colorado and southern Kansas they got

78
00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:47.000
it bad. But Oklahoma and the Texas Panadel they just

79
00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:49.680
got crushed by now after us all over, that whole

80
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:52.399
area was called the dust Bowl. Four years later, to

81
00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:56.040
the day, John Steinbeck's book The Grapes of Wrath it

82
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:59.240
was released. It pretty much detailed the tragedy and the

83
00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:03.000
mass exodus of that entire area nineteen sixty Barry Gordy

84
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:06.879

86
00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:13.000
the world that features Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and

87
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:16.160
Stonewall Jackson all riding their horses. Started making it back

88
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.079
in nineteen fourteen. But the original sculptor he actually left

89
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:20.480
in the nineteen twenties. Yeah, he's the guy who did

90
00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:23.879
Mount Rushmore. Now Stone down. It is actually larger and

91
00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:27.319
carved area than Mount Rushmore. But if you ever said, yeah,

92
00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:28.639
it's kind of hard to see what the hell it is.

93
