Hey, Hello, I'm Jeff and welcome to history and Factoids

2
00:00:13.199 --> 00:00:16.120
about Today, presented by Cool Media. Today's October the twentieth,

3
00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:17.960
and we all.

4
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:23.879
Had chicken, and we all had chicken, and we all

5
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:31.719
had chicken after and we all had chicken and wine.

6
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:34.359
We all had chicken.

7
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:41.560
Today is National Chicken and Waffles Day. Pretty simple, a

8
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:45.960
waffle served with fried chicken, syrup and butter. What's really odd.

9
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:49.479
In the seventeenth century, the Pennsylvania Dutch and African slaves

10
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:51.679
in the South both created chicken and waffles about the

11
00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:54.679
same time. The African American version. That's the one that's

12
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:58.159
popular today. Some local restaurants are having big deals today.

13
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:01.159
So whether you make them yourself, go out. Just enjoy

14
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.239
a Sunday with some chicken and waffles. All right, let's

15
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:07.000
say it happened to entertainment on October the twentieth. It's

16
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:09.799
back the nineteen fifty eight number one album with Frank

17
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:13.879
Sinatra sings for Only the Lonely Bye Frank Sinatra. Tommy

18
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:15.840
Edwards had the number one is on with It's all

19
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:16.359
in the Game.

20
00:01:17.319 --> 00:01:26.640
Mania has to fall, But it's all is the game,

21
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:33.920
all in the wonderful game.

22
00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:43.159
That we know as love. Ray Price had the number

23
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.000
one country song with city lights. A right.

24
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:55.200
Of city lights as far as I can see, wide

25
00:01:55.480 --> 00:02:03.319
way shines through the mind. Only God that the cavel

26
00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:09.280
raggets their flash signs and.

27
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:14.159
By their number one book was Lolita by Vladimir Nikobov.

28
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:17.719
Todd movie was cut on a hut tin roof Paul Newman.

29
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:20.719
He's an alcoholic ex football player who just ignores his wife,

30
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:24.199
Elizabeth Taylor, so she gets his dying father for Alves

31
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:26.879
to reconnect and then Newman and ives they have some

32
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:30.639
issues to work through, alright. What happened In October the twentieth,

33
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:33.439
eighteen eighteen, the United States and Great Britain agreed that

34
00:02:33.479 --> 00:02:35.719
the forty ninth Parallel would be the border between the

35
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.439
United States and Canada and that they would jointly control

36
00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:42.000
the organ territory. Back in World War One airplane pilots

37
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:44.479
they did not have parachutes, no cockpoit had been designed

38
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:46.960
that could hold a pilot added parachute, so after the

39
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:49.840
war they decided they needed to fix that. Nineteen twenty

40
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:53.120
two US Army pilot Howard Harris he was on a

41
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:55.520
training flight when his wings fell off of his airplane,

42
00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:57.439
he is about twenty five hundred feet up. He was

43
00:02:57.520 --> 00:02:59.800
able to jump out of the plane with this parachute,

44
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.439
landing with only cuts and bruises made in the first

45
00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:04.599
pilot to jump from a disable there planing and live

46
00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:07.800
because of a parachute. People had jumped with parachutes before,

47
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:08.840
but they wanted to do it.

48
00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:10.599
Now.

49
00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:13.199
If you go back to March twentieth, the nineteen forty two,

50
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:16.639
after fleeing the Philippines and arriving in Australia, United States

51
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:20.000
General dougl MacArthur gave this famous degree, I shall return.

52
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:22.240
I mean that didn't do much good for the twelve

53
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:25.280
thousand US soldiers and sixty three Philipino soldiers he left beyond.

54
00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:29.759
But then the United States they reinvaded the Philippines. They

55
00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:33.199
able to fight back and retake the Philippines from Japanese control.

56
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:36.400
So today, in nineteen forty four, MacArthur waited ashore at

57
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:38.919
a beach in Leydae. He hadn't been secured, so it

58
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:42.840
was perfectly safe, and he was in a perfectly pressed

59
00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:46.800
and ironed and starts uniform, surrounded by photographers and media.

60
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:50.879
He probably beclaiming people of Philippines, I have returned. Twenty

61
00:03:50.919 --> 00:03:53.919
thousand US soldiers had died, so MacArthur could make that

62
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:58.439
triumphant return. Now, usually when you see a story about Bigfoot,

63
00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:01.960
they play that really grainy video of Bigfoot walking across

64
00:04:01.960 --> 00:04:04.840
the creek bed that was shot today in nineteen sixty seven. Yeah,

65
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:08.159
two hunters in northern California. Now, using all the latest

66
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:10.840
technology that we had today, they still can't debunk that video.

67
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:14.599
It's called the Peterson footage. Now, the expert conclusion is

68
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:16.639
they have no idea what that thing is in the video,

69
00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:20.199
but they know the video is not fake. Nineteen seventy five,

70
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:23.120
the Supreme Court ruled that teachers could spank students after

71
00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:25.439
they gave him a warning. Well sort of. But this

72
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:27.279
pre court rolled was that it was up to the

73
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:29.560
stage and if they wanted to. Yeah, state could decide

74
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:32.360
that they wanted to spank their students. Even today, there

75
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:34.839
is no federal law saying that teachers can't spank students,

76
00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:38.079
but they might not do it. In nineteen States do

77
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:41.759
have laws allowance banking. Well at eighteen Colorado, they just

78
00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:43.759
passed a lot last year saying that you can't spank

79
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:47.360
the kids. Nineteen eighty six, the pilot of a Soviet

80
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:50.759
Union passenger of Jed Island. He bet his co pilot

81
00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:53.000
that he could land that plane with the cockpit windows

82
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:55.600
completely blocked out. So the two got together and they

83
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.000
covered up all the windows. Yeah, then they did an

84
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.519
instrument landing. They hit the run way of going about

85
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:02.480
one hundred and seventy four miles an hour, caused the

86
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:05.879
plane to flip upside down, killed seventy passengers. Pilot he

87
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:08.639
was perfectly fine. He walked away unhurt. The co pilot

88
00:05:08.680 --> 00:05:10.120
he died from a heart attack on his way to

89
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:12.759
the hospital. Pilot had to spend six years in prison

90
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:14.360
for it. What do you think the belt was?

91
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:23.879
DOKEJP goat shot this Shibf Day's he left this Shubf day.

92
00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:25.079
We want simple tage.

93
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:26.600
He left this Shibirf day.

94
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:27.800
And you know we don't do.

95
00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:30.040
Well.

96
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:33.160

The color of the egg, it depends on what color

190
00:10:34.480 --> 00:10:37.759
the hens earloab is. I'm serious, that's what they say.

191
00:10:38.120 --> 00:10:41.679
See it the hens earlob is red, then the chicken

192
00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:44.480
egg the shell will be brown. If her earload is white,

193
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:46.919
yeah it'll be a white chicken shell. But it doesn't

194
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:49.480
matter what color the shell is. They have the nutritional

195
00:10:49.519 --> 00:10:51.000
stuff and the flavor. It's going to be the same

196
00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:53.879
