one out of every eight hundred and sixty nine seven
14
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:10.840
and thirty nine people are named Jeff. Forget this, I'm
15
00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:13.319
not the only Jeff to have chieved worldwide fame. No,
16
00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:15.840

00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:38.560
go ahead and tackle yourself today. Now, most Jeffs, we
25
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:40.480
pretty much have what we need, So there's no reason
26
00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:43.719
for presidence today. But I'm sure most Jeffs they wouldn't

00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.519

31
00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:57.000
In October the twentieth let's back to nineteen ninety one
32
00:01:57.560 --> 00:01:59.959
number one album was Roping the Wind by Garth Brooks.
33
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:25.599
Ran Carey had the number one song with Emotions.
34
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:26.400
Travis Tritt. He had the number one country song with
35
00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:28.840
any More za.
36
00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:35.280
Kny Pritty, I don't love you anymore.
37
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:47.800
I've got to cha, Let fight extract to get on
38
00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:52.039
and my thought.
39
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:55.800
Number one book was Scarlett by Alexander Ripley. The top
40
00:02:55.879 --> 00:02:59.240
movie was Other People's Money. A corporate raider, he buys
41
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:02.120
a small and then he falls in love with the
42
00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:05.879
founder's granddaughter, star as Danny DeVito, Gregory Peck.
43
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:09.120
And Penelope and Miller. All right, what happened In October
44
00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:09.960
the twentieth.
45
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.560
Eighteen eighteen, The United States and Great Britain got together
46
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:15.599
and agreed that the forty ninth Parallel would be the
47
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:18.280
border between the United States and Canada. What about that
48
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:22.400
Oregon area, Yeah, said we'll just joint control that. It
49
00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:24.360
worked for a while, but yeah, about twenty years and
50
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:26.919
then it turned in almost to a war. In World
51
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.960
War One, airplane pilots they really didn't have parachute. No,
52
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:32.400
the cock boots, they weren't designed to have a pilot
53
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:35.520
and a parachute. So after the war they actually redesigned
54
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:39.199
the cockpits. In nineteen twenty two, US Army pilot Howard
55
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:41.680
Airs he was in a training flight when the wings
56
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:44.199
fell off of his airplane. Yeah, about twenty five hundred
57
00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:45.919
feet up in the air. So he was able to
58
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:48.479
jump out of the plane with this parachute. Now after
59
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:51.599
he landed with only some cuts, some bruises and stuff. Yep.
60
00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:53.639
He was the first pilot to ever jump from an
61
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:57.639
airplane that had become disabled and actually survived by a parachute.
62
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.000
How people had parachuted out of planes to test them,
63
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:03.159
but they wanted to do that. So you go back
64
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:06.560
to March twentieth. In nineteen forty two, Now, after fleeing
65
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:10.360
the Philippines and arriving in Australia, United States General Douglas
66
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:14.120
MacArthur he gave his famous decree I shall return. Well,
67
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:16.279
that didn't do any good for the twelve thousand United
68
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:18.639
States soldiers that he had left behind in the Philippines,
69
00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:21.519
or all those Filipino soldiers that he left there. But
70
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:23.439
the United States they went back, and they fought in
71
00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:25.439
the Philippines and they were able to take it back
72
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:28.600
from the Japanese. Was today in nineteen forty four, MacArthur
73
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:30.839
he waited ashore and a beach over and lady, it
74
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:34.399
had been secured. Now he was in his perfectly pressed,
75
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:38.759
starched and ironed uniform, surrounded by photographers. He walked on
76
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:41.959
the beach and proudly proclaimed, people of the Philippines, I
77
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:46.079
have returned. However, twenty thousand Yes soldiers had died fighting
78
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:50.240
so MacArthur could make that triumphant return. Now, usually when
79
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.360
you see a story about Bigfoot thatwy Wass played that
80
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:55.399
really grainy video of Bigfoot walking across the creek bed
81
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:58.480
that was filmed today nineteen sixty seven. Two hunters got
82
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:01.160
it when they were up in northern California. Now with
83
00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:03.800
all the latest technology and everything we have, they've actually
84
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:06.360
gone and done all kinds of research on that. Yeah,
85
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:08.879
they still can't debunk that video. Yeah, it's called the
86
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:09.800
Peterson footage.
87
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:10.600
Yeah.
88
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:13.079
The expert conclusion is they don't know what that thing
89
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:14.720
is in the video, but they know the video is
90
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:18.759
not fake. Nineteen seventy five, the United States Supreme Court
91
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:21.560
ruled that teachers could spank students after they gave him
92
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:21.920
a warning.
93
00:05:22.399 --> 00:05:22.920
Oh sort of.
94
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:25.600
They actually said that it was up to the states
95
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:27.399
if the states wanted to spank. You know, there was
96
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:31.240
nothing making it illegal to So today, even today, there's
97
00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:33.560
no federal loss in that somebody cannot spank a student
98
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:35.879
if they want. It's all state, so they might not
99
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.480
do it, But eighteen states still have laws on the
100
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:42.360
books that allow spanking. In nineteen seventy six, a pilot
101
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:46.560
on of a Soviet Airline passenger jet he bet his
102
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:49.639
co pilot that he could actually land that plane with
103
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:52.199
all the windows blacked out. So the two of them
104
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:54.360
they got together and they blacked out all the windows.
105
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:56.639
So the pilot hit the runway A one hundred and
106
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:58.759
seventy four miles an hour, caused the plane to flip,
107
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:02.319
killed seventy Now the pilot he was perfectly fine. Yeah,
108
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:04.959
he walked away unhurt. The co pilot he died from
109
00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:07.160
a heart attack on his way to the hospital. So
110
00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:09.279
that pilot he ended up spending six years in jail
111
00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:09.519
for it.
112
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:10.879
What do you think that bet was?
113
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:12.399
Joke?
114
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:16.360
Joke, joked, joke.
115
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:21.000

194
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.919
Karate Kid movie. Then he was just a jerk in
195
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:12.480
the movie Back to School. That was a Ridney Dangerfield

went back to Karate Kid has been on Cobra KaiA
197
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.360
since twenty eighteen. I think they did in that earlier
198
00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:21.480
this year. Now, do you, honestly though, think that Ralph
199
00:10:21.559 --> 00:10:23.600
Macchio could actually have beaten him in a fight. No,
200
00:10:23.799 --> 00:10:25.440
it would not happen, even with all the stuff that
201
00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:28.840
mister Meagi todt him. No, William would have kick Macchio's ass.
202
00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:29.600
All right.

00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:31.360

Laid back, laid back. I got me some Sis jeans.
206
00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:52.679
Everybody got their cups, but they ain't fifteen isn't now?
207
00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:55.559
That was Snoop Doggy Dog. But he's growed up now,
208
00:10:55.639 --> 00:10:57.919
so he just goes by a Snoop Dogg. He's born
209
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:01.519
in Long Beach, California, nineteen seventy one, fifty four year olds.
210
00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:04.320
Started out rapping on Doctor Dre albums. They let him
211
00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:06.200
go solo in their early nineties, so there were thirty
212
00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:09.759
seven million albums. It's a lot for rapping now. Snoopy
213
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:12.600
is everywhere though. I mean he's in commercials. He's a
214
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:14.919
coach on the voice. Basically, if there's a crowd in
215
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:17.679
the camera, you'll probably find snoop there now. He had
216
00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:19.679
a daughter from a fling and he married his high
217
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:22.360
school sweetheart in nineteen ninety seven and they have two
218
00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:26.399
