12
00:00:40.439 --> 00:00:45.920
Today is National Fruitcake Day. Fruitcakes, they get a bad rap.
13
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:48.119
They're not that bad. They're actually pretty good. I mean
14
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:51.039
they're dried fruits, nuts, sugar laced with booze that can't
15
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:53.799
be all back in it now. They found fruitcakes back
16
00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:56.320
in ancient Egyptian tombs. I'm guessing they're probably a little
17
00:00:56.359 --> 00:00:59.240
dry now. If you give somebody a fruitcake for a gift,
18
00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:01.719
tell them it's really healthy for him. That way, they
19
00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:03.679
won't get maddief you're giving them a fruitcake. They'll get
20
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:05.280
mad because you think they're fat and need to get
21
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:09.079
in shape. Just enjoy yourself some fruitcake today, She's going

39
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:25.159
the twenty seventh, eighteen forty five and Jefferson, Georgia doctor
40
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:28.400
Crawford Long he is the anesthetic ether for the very
41
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:30.800
first time for childbirth. Yeah, they'd used it for our
42
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:32.680
dental procedures, but nope, he is the first one to
43
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.800
use it for childbirth, used it on his wife. Nineteen
44
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.840
thirty five, in Germany, Regina Jonas became the first woman
45
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:41.400
ever ordained as a Jewish rabbi. Now she wrote her
46
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:43.639
thesis on there were no Jewish laws stating that women
47
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:46.439
couldn't be rabbis. Now, after she was our dained, she
48
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:48.319
stayed in Nazi Germany and she believed that's where she
49
00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:51.000
was needed most. She continued to do our rabbi duties
50
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.960
until nineteen forty two. That's when the Nazis finally yeah,
51
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:56.159
they got her, arrested her and senator to Auschwitz. She
52
00:02:56.240 --> 00:02:59.080
ended up dying there. Then Regina's was forgotten from history.
53
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:02.039
Then in nineteen ninety one, after the Soviet Union fell,
54
00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:04.560
a researcher was going through some papers that had been
55
00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:07.599
kept in the former East Germany. He found her orientation
56
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:11.520
papers or dissertation and some personal documents. So now everybody
57
00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:14.479
knew all about the first female rabbi, Regina Jonas and
58
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:17.319
how she performed her duties with honor ended up dying
59
00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:19.479
from him. That's her picture he used today on the
60
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:21.919
podcast cover photo, Hey.
61
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:33.599
Kids, what time is it?
62
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:43.159
Nineteen forty seven, Nawty Duty Show became the first nationally
63
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:47.000
televised children's TV program. Howdy He was just a voice character. Yeah,
64
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.240
you didn't see Howty Duty. But the show became so
65
00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:51.800
popular that they got this guy named Francis Barres to
66
00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:54.159
create a puppet to be Houdy. He did, and then
67
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:57.840
the show even got bigger, so they started merchandising the puppet. Well, Francis,
68
00:03:57.840 --> 00:03:59.680
he didn't like that at all. See they paid him
69
00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:02.080
to make the puppet. He didn't have any rights to it.
70
00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:04.240
So the bigger Howdy Do he began, the more and
71
00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:06.080
more money that came in, and the matter and matter
72
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:08.960
Francis got. He got so mad that during a live show,
73
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:11.400
ran on stage, grabbed the puppet of Outy Duty and
74
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:14.599
ran off stage. Well, the producers, they were pretty sly
75
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:16.920
about how they handled it though. They said that Howdy
76
00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:19.240
Duty he was having plastic surgery so that he would
77
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:21.240
be more handsome when he ran for the president of
78
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:23.600
all the kids in the United States. Well it worked.
79
00:04:23.879 --> 00:04:25.759
Another puppet was made. It looked a lot better and
80
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:27.959
became even more popular. The first puppet was kind of
81
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.360
creepy looking nineteen eighty three Pope jump all. The second
82
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:34.920
he pardoned mehmet alii agga, that's the guy who shot
83
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:35.399

00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:42.199

00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:56.120
Cuss is born on Decemular twenty seventh. Chemist microbiologist Louis Pesteur.
89
00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:58.480
He was born in Doul, France, in eighteen twenty two.
90
00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:01.000
People thought he was crazy. See Louis, he had this
91
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:03.959
theory that diseases were caused by these little, tiny organisms
92
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:06.439
you couldn't see. I mean, yeah, we know about it now,
93
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:08.199
but back then they had no idea where gyms were.
94
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:12.240
Eighteen eighty five, Louis created the vaccination for rabies. Of course,
95
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.959
he's best known for the heating of food for our preservative.
96
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:20.120
Perservative preservation calls that pastorization. Married in eighteen forty nine.
97
00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:22.279
They had five kids. Louis he died from a stroke
98
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:24.360
in eighteen ninety five at seventy two years old.
99
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:40.839
Look never one, what am I like? Colly.
100
00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:45.920
That was actress Marlene Dietracht. She was born in Berlin, Germany,
101
00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:49.160
in nineteen oh one. She started out becoming a big
102
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:51.560
star when she made twenty five silent movies. Yeah, they
103
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:54.480
couldn't hear her sing. Then she made thirty seven talking
104
00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:56.680
and then she became super huge because of that. Then
105
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:59.040
she released forty one records. So what we just heard,
106
00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:00.600
and I don't think they could have sold many of
107
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:03.879
them now. She performed from nineteen nineteen to nineteen eighty four.
108
00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:06.639
She is considered one of the greatest female Hollywood legends
109
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:09.240
of all time. She married in nineteen twenty three and
110
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:11.120
they had one daughter. They were together and to her
111
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:12.839
husband died nineteen seventy six.
112
00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:13.680
Wow.
113
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:17.199
Now that is a remarkable Hollywood love story. Only problem
114
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.199
is that, see Marlane. She was very well known for
115
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:22.879
sleeping with almost every man and woman in Hollywood, and
116
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:24.600
she was not as great about it at all. She
117
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:27.639
didn't care what anybody thought. She d'ver dined from kidney
118
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:48.560

in August at eighty four years old from congestive heart failure.
130
00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:24.560
So are you old enough to remember when that cute
131
00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:26.920
little blonde girl said that in the movie Polter Guys,
132
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:29.079

in Poltergeys. Then she did Polter Guys two, Pulchter Guys three.
135
00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:37.000
Then she died when she was twelve in nineteen eighty eight.
136
00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:39.680
She had been born with some really goofy thing to
137
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:40.600
do with her intestines.
138
00:07:41.519 --> 00:07:44.879

He's still country now. He's got a few shows scheduled.
148
00:08:14.959 --> 00:08:16.480

00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:19.000
