00:00:20.039 --> 00:00:23.039
Welcome to history and factoids about today. I am Jeff.
2
00:00:23.079 --> 00:00:24.760
Today's February of the seventh.

00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:40.399
Alfredo el Bredo, Elfredo, Alfredo, Elfredo, Elfredo, Alfredo, el Bredo,

el Bredo, el Bredo, el Bredo Alfrado.
5
00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:49.280
Today is National Fedcini Alfredo Day. Now Italy is Alfredo
6
00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:52.079
de la Leo. He created nineteen oh eight. He made
7
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:54.039
it for his pregnant wife. She couldn't seem to keep
8
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:56.640
anything down, so he came up with Fedcini Alfredo. She
9
00:00:56.840 --> 00:01:00.600
absolutely loved it. So he put his butter, every cream
10
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:05.560
parmesan mixture over Feticcini Boston and his menu restaurant since
11
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:07.879
then Fetiini Alfreda. That's pretty much a mainstay on every
12
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:10.719
Italian restaurant. But you can put mushrooms and shrimp and
13
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:13.560
spinach in there whatever you like. Now, if you really
14
00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:16.439
want to enjoy a Fetinia Alfredo, they say the best
15
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:18.719
way to do it is with a glass of white
16
00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:23.560
wine and to have fruit for desserts. Now, olive garden carabas.
17
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:25.159
Now a bunch of you local restaurant are all having
18
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:28.359
deals today. Now if that doesn't sound good, Today is
19
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:32.280
also National ice Cream for Breakfast Day. Yeah, tight, you
20
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:34.680
might like that one, all right? This Who's going on
21
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:37.400
entertainment on February seven, It's back. In nineteen sixty six,
22
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:40.239
No one album was rubber sold by the Beatles, but
23
00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:42.480
Tulacark had the number once on with My Love.
24
00:01:43.319 --> 00:01:49.680
My wal Some Shine, somet My Love, The.
25
00:01:52.159 --> 00:02:02.280
Machine Wine Sky Star Shines read nine and there is
26
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:05.599
in this world can ever change?
27
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:10.280
Jack Green had the number one country song with there
28
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:11.639
Goes My Everything.
29
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:12.199
There Go.
30
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:19.520
ALMD the.
31
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:30.599
Ree.
32
00:02:33.719 --> 00:02:36.439
The number one book was The Source by James Mischner.
33
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:40.479
Top movie was Doctor Shivago, a Russian doctor and poet.
34
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:42.360
Now he's married, but he falls in love with the
35
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:45.000
political actor of his wife. Yeah. During World War One
36
00:02:45.039 --> 00:02:49.120
and the Russian Revolution, stars Omar Sharif, Julia, Christie Roth Stagger,
37
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:53.400
Alec Guinness. Nineteen seventy four Mill Brooks. He premiered his
38
00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:56.439
movie Blazing Saddles. He did at the Pickwick drive in
39
00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:58.960
in Burbank. Now everyone had to watch the movie sitting
40
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.159
on the back of a horse. No cars were allowed,
41
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:05.319
all right. What happened on in February the seventh, eighteen seventeen,
42
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:07.840
Baltimore became the first American city to be lit up
43
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:10.280
by gas street lamps. Yeah, they used the gas that
44
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:14.319
came from coal. Eighteen fifty six in Tasmania, the island
45
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:17.000
off Australia, first time in world history, they passed the
46
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:19.960
law that elections would be held by secret ballot. Now
47
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.240
the first time the United States had a secret ballot
48
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:26.000
for their election eighteen eighty four. Let's go back to Baltimore.
49
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:28.240
Now this wasn't because of the gas street lamps. In
50
00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:30.800
nineteen oh four, I just caught a cigarette, started a
51
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.159
fire that became absolutely huge. Last of thirty one hours,
52
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:37.159
burned eighty blocks. Now, fire departments all over the Eastern
53
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:39.360
Seaborne rushed over there to try and help, as far
54
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:41.599
asway to New York City. When they got there, they
55
00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:44.080
couldn't do anything. No one else's hoses would connect to
56
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:45.960
the Baltimore's hydrants.
57
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:46.639
Yeah.
58
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:49.439
See, back then, every city had their own fire department,
59
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:52.879
and they had their own fire hydrants and their own hoses.
60
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.800
Nothing could ever get interchangeable. So that led to the
61
00:03:55.879 --> 00:03:58.919
national standard on fire hydrants. It's in use today every
62
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:01.280
fire department hose of work in any city they go
63
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.960
to to help with World War Two in nineteen forty three,
64
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:08.120
United States began shoe rationing. Now you can only buy
65
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:10.520
three pairs of shoes a year. I know that doesn't
66
00:04:10.520 --> 00:04:13.719
really sound that unreasonable, but get this, we got everybody
67
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:16.319
really upset. Shoes were only allowed to be made in
68
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:21.120
four colors black white, town brown or Armory russet that
69
00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:23.519
is a reddish brown. And women's hills they could be
70
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:26.480
no longer than two and five eight inches. And men's
71
00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:29.199
sandals and golf shoes they were banned, so I really
72
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:31.240
made them. Man, what if that an exception for kids? Though?
73
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:34.680
Now this guy has some big balls. Nineteen eighty four,
74
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:38.480
United astronout Bruce McCandless he did a spacewalk from the
75
00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:42.399
Space Shuttle Challenger untethered, first time anyone has done that. Yeah,
76
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:45.399
nothing connected him to the Space Shuttle, but honestly, don't
77
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:46.199
you think it was probably a.
78
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:55.319
Bet doked joked jake shug this shiverf dakenna he left
79
00:04:55.399 --> 00:04:58.079
this shuverfday. We got simple tar he left.
80
00:04:58.079 --> 00:04:59.040
This shibf day.
81
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:01.199
And you know you don't.
82
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:04.920
Oh, okay, let's see it was born on February seventh.
83
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:08.120
Writer Charles Dickens was born in Portsmouth, England, in eighteen
84
00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:10.720
twelve his books have never been out of print. Over
85
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:12.759
two hundred movies and TV shows have been based on
86
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:15.720
his books. Something you might know of or Oliver Twist,
87
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:19.759
The Christmas Carol, David Copperfield, the Teletoo Cities, Great Expectations,
88
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:22.600
probably at least heard their titles now. Back in the day,
89
00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:26.120
Dickens was huge celebrity, probably more famous than most actress
90
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.759
and singers are today now. He would go on world tours.
91
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.000
He came to the United States twice. So what do
92
00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:32.759
you do is go to the town, their biggest theater,
93
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:34.759
and then he would go on stage and just read
94
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:36.600
his book to the sold out crowd. Yeah, the hardest
95
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:39.519
ticket to get. Charles. He had married in eighteen thirty
96
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:41.720
six and they had ten kids. That sounds like a
97
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:44.839
rock star. He left his wife in nine eighteen fifty eight,
98
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:47.240
hooked up with an eighteen year old actress. Sounds like
99
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:50.720
a rock star during those days, though, the way it
100
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:54.000
worked in politically and pretty much entertainment, that kind of
101
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:56.480
Dickens was too famous to get a divorce, so nobody
102
00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:58.000
knew that he ever left his wife for that eighteen
103
00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:00.399
year old girl. He died from a stroke in eighteen
104
00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:04.240
seventy at fifty eight years old, Are you old enough?
105
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:04.399
Or?
106
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:06.680
He watched reruns of the TV show Little House on
107
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:09.560
the Prairie. That's where Melissa Gilbert played Laura Ingles and
108
00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:12.360
Michael Landon played Paul. The show is based on the
109
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:15.120
books by Loura Ingles Wilder, the Little House on the
110
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:18.319
Prairie book series now the real Lour Ingles. And she
111
00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:21.600
was born in Pipton County, Wisconsin in eighteen sixty seven.
112
00:06:22.040 --> 00:06:24.160
The books are based on where she grew up and
113
00:06:24.199 --> 00:06:26.720
how she grew up, but the stories are all fiction. Yeah,
114
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:28.879
she made all those up. She got married in eighteen
115
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:31.240
eighty five and they had two children, Laura. She died
116
00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:33.639
in nineteen fifty seven and ninety years old from diabetes.
117
00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:37.680
Actor James Spader. He's sixty six. He's born in Boston
118
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:40.879
in nineteen sixty. His first big movie was Pretty in Pink,
119
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:46.000
then Mannequin, Six Lives of Videotapes, Crash. He get really
120
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:49.000
big on TV and The Practice in Boston Illegal. Then
121
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:51.759
he played Red on Blacklist for ten years. Kind of
122
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:54.319
funny a ball guy being called Red now James. He
123
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:56.399
had two sons from his first wife. They divorced after
124
00:06:56.480 --> 00:06:59.120
seventeen years. He's been with his girlfriend since two thousand
125
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:01.560
and two, and they have an You know that today
126
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:03.800
is actually really slow day, so I just thought, you know,
127
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:05.279
what the hell? I hope you all like Garth.
128
00:07:06.519 --> 00:07:09.079
Sometimes the craziest things in the world can happen.
129
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.680
You can actually cut a song, they can actually put
130
00:07:12.680 --> 00:07:14.800
it on one of those little bit of this, They
131
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:17.800
can take it to your radio station and it's then
132
00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:24.439
and only then you realize something's wrong. I didn't first
133
00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:25.560
notice it.
134
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:27.600
I've blayed it, and I've blayed it, and it never
135
00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:29.279
hit me till all of a sudden. One day I
136
00:07:29.319 --> 00:07:31.720
was driving around back home and it became on the
137
00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:35.800
radio and I said, Garth, that's what I go buy
138
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:41.199
back home this guard And I said, Garth, I said,
139
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.279
would you handle this situation that way?
140
00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:45.560
I said.
141
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:50.720
No, I don't think I would, So I.
142
00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:53.079
Hope you don't mind. But I had to go back
143
00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:54.720
and write a third verse for this song to make
144
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:55.600
it a little bit more mean.
145
00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:59.399
If you know what I mean, give it the rockers.
146
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:02.199
Like a sous row.
147
00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:07.480
I'll just snow me at all. Then I've been there.
148
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:09.879
And everything.
149
00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:15.560

00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:27.799
then he married me Lacunas in twenty fifteen. They have
172
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:28.720
a son and a daughter.
173
00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:30.879
No Kiddle Taco Ben.
174
00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:37.600
That was Gidget to Chihuaala Gidget. She was a spokesperson
175
00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:39.960
for Taco Bell in the late nineteen nineties. Now she
176
00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:42.919
was born today. In nineteen ninety four, Carlos azer all
177
00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:45.720

said all gidgets lines for now. She was hugely popular.
181
00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:56.480
Somebody said that in two thousand, when talking Taco Bell

00:09:56.519 --> 00:09:59.840
stopped using her for their TV commercials, sales fell six percent.
183
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:02.519
That is still the biggest dropping sales that Taco Bells
184
00:10:02.559 --> 00:10:05.480
ever had. Well Gidget. She also did a Geico commercial
185
00:10:05.559 --> 00:10:07.919

186
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:09.879
