He had the number one country song with am I

00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:28.560
the only one. Am I? The only ball who wants
23
00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:33.959
to have fought to night? Is there anybody out there
24
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:36.239
wants to have a cold beer? Kick it to the
25
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:40.000
moon and line. If I have to rise hill, if
26
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:41.719
bound myself, I will.
27
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:42.959
Be all that ain't right?
28
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:45.840
Just time to get it all? Am I?
29
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.760
The only wall who wants to have thought tonight. That
30
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:53.120
Number one book was The Omen Machine by Terry Goodkind.
31
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:56.519
Top movie was The Help. An aspiring writer in the
32
00:01:56.599 --> 00:01:59.319
nineteen sixties writes a book from her black maid's point
33
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:01.640
of view during the Civil Rights movement. So I was
34
00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:06.159
Viola Davis, Emma Stone, and Octavia Spencer A What happened
35
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:09.919
on August the thirtieth in eleven forty six in Europe?
36
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:12.199
Somehow they were able to get all the leaders in
37
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:16.159
royalty together and they all decided to outlaw crossbows. Yeah,
38
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:18.560
they all believed that it would end war for all time.
39
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:22.000
It worked for a couple months. Seventeen seventy six, during
40
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.800
the American Revolution, the British had the Continental Army on
41
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:27.319
the ropes, the Cotton Isln Army. They had to evacuate
42
00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:31.240
Long Island. They fell back to Manhattan. Eighteen sixty one,
43
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:34.280
Union General John Fremont. He declared that all slaves in
44
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:38.159
Missouri were free. It was called Fremont's emancipation. Only problem
45
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:41.280
was Fremont had no power authority to do it. President
46
00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:43.759
Abraham Lincoln actually had to relieve him from his command
47
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:48.120
for insubordination. Eighteen ninety, President Benjamin Harrison he signed the
48
00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:52.039
first law requiring inspections of meat products over in England
49
00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:54.080
in nineteen oh one. You were both. He thened the
50
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:57.840
first powered vacuum cleaner in nineteen fifty six. The Lake
51
00:02:57.919 --> 00:03:00.800
Ponchetron Causeway Bridge will put up down there in Louisiana.
52
00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:03.879
Now it's the longest bridge in the world that runs
53
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:07.599
continuously over water. It's twenty four miles long. It's actually
54
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.159
the eighth longest bridge in the world. There are six
55
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:12.599
Chinese bridges and one bridge in Thailand or longer, but
56
00:03:12.639 --> 00:03:16.280
they don't run continuously over water. Nineteen sixty three, the
57
00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:18.960
United States and the Soviet Union, they had the Washington.
58
00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:22.400
The Moscow Hotlon got installed. Now it was to provide
59
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:25.759
emergency communication between the two superpowers. Now there was no
60
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:28.520
red phone. The hotline actually wasn't any phones at all.
61
00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:31.319
Started out as a teletype and then in nineteen eighty six,
62
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:33.919
it became a fax machine. Two thousand and eight became
63
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:38.039
a security email. Nineteen sixty seven, the United States Senate,
64
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:41.479
they confirmed Thurgood Marshall as the first black justice to
65
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:45.360
serve on the Supreme Court. Nineteen sixty nine of Birmingham, England.
66
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:48.199
During a concert by the band Earth, their lead singer
67
00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:50.520
of this Guy named Ozzy Osburn, he stopped the show
68
00:03:50.919 --> 00:03:53.599
announced that the band was changing their name to Black Sabbath,
69
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:57.039
and then they started playing to finished the show. Nineteen
70
00:03:57.120 --> 00:03:59.439
seventy nine, for the first time in history, humans had
71
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.199
witness and recorded that had common hit the sun. Now
72
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:05.599
that explosion released enough energy to equal one million hydrogen bombs.
73
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:08.919
Twenty twenty one, in Algeria, they became the last country
74
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:11.960
in the world to stop selling leaded gasoline. Leted gasoline
75
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:13.919
and been used around the world for ninety nine years.
76
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:20.680
But now no, no, no more cop Co cop coat shag.
77
00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:24.839
This shibirth day, were gonna pause. He left this shiverbthday.
78
00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:26.040
We gonna sit with targe.
79
00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:28.879
He's like this shivebirthday and you know we don't.
80
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:32.480
Get that birthday. Yeah, you're probably wonder who was born
81
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:35.439
on August the thirtieth well writer Mary Shelley. She was
82
00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:38.639
born in Summerstone, England, in seventeen ninety seven. When she
83
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:41.319
was eighteen years old, during a cold, rainy, dreary summer,
84
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:45.199
she was staying at that summerhouse with a bunch of friends. Well,
85
00:04:45.279 --> 00:04:47.920
she was challenged to ride a horror store. She accepted
86
00:04:47.959 --> 00:04:51.199
the challenge. She WoT Frankenstein. Now her original buck is
87
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:53.040
quite a bit different than all the movies you've seen.
88
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:57.240
One hige misconception is Frankenstein is not the monster. Frankenstein
89
00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:58.560
is the guy who created the monster.
90
00:04:59.439 --> 00:04:59.560
Now.
91
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:02.560

00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:06.439
You are, it brings memories when I was a Pruss.
108
00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:14.160
It wasn't God made all key talk game.
109
00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:19.399
That was Kitty wells Now that song. It wasn't God
110
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:22.319

123
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:03.319
That was said by astronaut Jack Swigert. It was during

00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:03.920
were able to sell forty million albums. Now, John, he
139
00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:06.160
tried to go solo, but he shouldn't have done that.
140
00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:09.120
He had one son and one daughter from his first wife.

there together until he died in two thousand and one
146
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:26.319
from heart failure at sixty five years old. Comedian Lewis
147
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:28.680
Black he's seventy six. He's going to Washington, d C.
148
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:31.920
In nineteen forty eight. It's done some movies in TV shows,
149
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:34.039
but he's pretty much known for his stand up act
150
00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:36.480
now if you haven't seen him, his bets usually end
151
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:39.399
up with an angry rant about culture, religion, politics, that
152
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:41.799
kind of stuff. So the lot of seed is quite
153
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:44.720
a few books, done, a number of comedy TV specials.
154
00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:47.320
Got married once, but surprisingly that's the one thing he
155
00:08:47.360 --> 00:08:51.279
will not talk about. Actor Michael Chickliss. He's sixty one.
156
00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:54.399
He's born in Lowell, Massachusetts. In nineteen sixty three. His
157
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.720
first movie was Wired Weird, Wired w I r Ed.
158
00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:02.080
He played John Belushi in it. Now it was a
159
00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:05.600
really controversial movie. Critics hated the movie, and it bombed
160
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:08.120
at the box office. But Michael, he got great reviews
161
00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:10.600
for how he played Belushi. First really got known though
162
00:09:10.639 --> 00:09:13.120
on TV. He started on The Commission, then The Shield,
163
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.480
the Vegas Gotham biggest movie, Fantastic four. You got to
164
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:19.159
Play the Things. He got married in nineteen ninety two
165
00:09:19.200 --> 00:09:21.679
and they have two daughters. Okay, all my nerd friends
166
00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:24.399
out there, Michael, he is a huge comic book fan,
167
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:27.279
so much so that after he finished playing The Thing,
168
00:09:27.679 --> 00:09:30.200
he vowed that he would never turn down giving autographs
