6
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:49.439
They taste great, super healthy, can be stored forever. During
7
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.759
World War Two, when there was sugar ashing, people just
8
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:54.000
use carrots instead of sugar. How do you think they
9
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:55.039
came up with carotcake?
10
00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:55.719
Now?
11
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:57.719
Today's basically remind you that as you're getting ready to
12
00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:00.679
plant your garden. Yeah, don't forget the carrots. All right,
13
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:02.960
let's going on to entertainment. On April fourth, it was
14
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:05.680
back to nineteen sixty four and one album was Meet
15
00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:07.879

16
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:09.319

Get you Anything, my friend Lily below right to I
19
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:33.439
Don't care you Much the Money Money Bobby.
20
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:37.319
Johnny Cash had the numb one country song with Understand
21
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:37.719
your Man.
22
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:42.079
I'll lay there then you'll be keeping your mouth shut
23
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:46.959
till I'm gone don't give me that old familiar crime
24
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:53.959
cussing mom, unlustand you man. I'm a party of bad mouth,
25
00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:57.280
unlustanding you man.
26
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:01.159
The number one book was The Spy Who Came In
27
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:04.079
from the Cold by John Lecar. The top movie was
28
00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:07.159
It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Mad World. After a car
29
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:10.199
crash out in the desert, the driver's dying words tell
30
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:13.080
of a location of a hidden stash. Alot. Well, all
31
00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:15.280
the witnesses that have pulled over, oh they all make
32
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:19.599
a mad dasher try and get to it first. Stars Spencer, Tracy, Milton, Burrow,
33
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:23.159
Ethel Berman, Seed, Caesar, Buddy Hacket. Yeah, there's a whole
34
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:23.840
bunch of them.
35
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:25.759
All right.
36
00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:28.280
What happened on April fourth and eighteen eighteen Congress they
37
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:30.599
enacted in the US Flag Act now stated that the
38
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:32.960
United States flag would have only thirteen stripes, and those
39
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:35.919
are represented the original thirteen colonies. Then there'd be a
40
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:38.879
star from every stripe or for every state that comes in.
41
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:41.199
See the United States. They had been adding stars and stripes,
42
00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:43.080
so every time they added a state, and it got
43
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:45.159
ridiculous when they got up to twenty straits to have
44
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:49.120
on twenty different stripes. So, yeah, eighteen forty one, United
45
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:52.199
States President William Henry Harrison. He died from pneumonia, so
46
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.960
after only thirty one days in office, so he was
47
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:57.280
the first president to die in office. Actually, John Tyler
48
00:02:57.360 --> 00:02:59.039
he became the tenth President of the United States to
49
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:03.039
take over for him. Eighteen eighty seven and outspoken Susan Salter.
50
00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:06.280
She was elected mayor of Argonia, Kansas. So the first
51
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:09.039
woman elected as a mayor in the United States. See
52
00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:11.639
a group of men they wanted to teach women that
53
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:14.120
they didn't have any place in politics and just be quiet,
54
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:16.159
because you have to remember, women they couldn't even vote
55
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:19.479
back then, so they wanted to just humiliate Susannah so
56
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:21.680
they nominated her and put her on the ballot. She
57
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:23.599
didn't even know she was running until the morning of
58
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:26.120
the election. When she heard about it, she went downtown
59
00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:29.360
and did some campaigning. Yeah, ended up winning the election
60
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:32.479
by two thirds of the vote. Well, she actually went
61
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:34.639
and only served her one term and then she proved
62
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:37.919
her point something. Yeah, she walked away said I win. Now,
63
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.800
this show is just how much influenced video and pictures have.
64
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:44.759
In nineteen thirty three, a United States Army airship basically
65
00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:47.639
a blimp. It was called the uss Ex Akron. It
66
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:50.599
crashed into the Atlantic Ocean off of New Jersey. Seventy
67
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:53.080
three the people on board were killed. Only three survived.
68
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:56.319
Now you've probably never heard of the Akron. But when
69
00:03:56.360 --> 00:03:59.439
the Hindenburg crashed, thirty six people were killed and sixty
70
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.039
seven lived. But we all know about the Hindenburghs. Could
71
00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:05.639
we saw the film? Nineteen forty nine, twelve countries they
72
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.400
signed the treaty creating NATO, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
73
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:12.680
In nineteen eighty nine, when NATO got up to sixteen countries,
74
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.400
they promised in the Soviet Union and Slash Russia that
75
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:18.399
they would not add any more countries. Well, today there's
76
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:21.920
thirty two countries in NATO. Nineteen sixty eight, Martin Luther
77
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:24.319
King was assassinated as he was standing on a hotel
78
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:27.560
balcony in Memphis, Tennessee. That was one day after he
79
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:30.240
gave it as really famous I've been to the mountaintop speech.
80
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:32.959
As soon as word got out about King being killed, Yeah,
81
00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:35.439
riding broke out and over one hundred cities across the country.
82
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:37.879
Army and National Guard had to be called out in
83
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:41.040
order to calm everything. Down. Over twenty thousand people were arrested.
84
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:44.439
Forty three people were killed during the writing. Nineteen seventy three,
85
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:46.360
in New York City, the World Trade Center opened up
86
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:49.519
three hundred and fifty feet high one hundred and ten stories,
87
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:52.680
world's tallest buildings. Well for one month, then the Serious
88
00:04:52.720 --> 00:04:55.879
Tower opened up in Chicago. Now I would think if
89
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:58.279
you went to jail, you'd want all the other prisoners
90
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:00.839
to think that you were really tough. Let's make it
91
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:03.959
kind of hard. Nineteen seventy five singer Steve Miller. You
92
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:05.959
know from the Steve Miller Man. He got arrested for
93
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:07.160
burning his girlfriend's clothes.
94
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:13.839
