Speaker 1 (00:00):
On today's episode. If I didn't know, maybe you didn't either.
Can we just take a moment to reflect on this
journey through black history that we've been on twenty eight
episodes in one month. We did it. I didn't know,
I didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't know. I

(00:23):
didn't know. I didn't know. On Season four of I
didn't Know, Maybe you didn't either, we covered everything from
Dapper Dan flipping the script in fashion to Paul Revere
Williams literally turning the tables on racism in architecture by
mastering upside down drawings. Brothers like, oh you don't want
to sit next to me in the meeting. Cool, I'll

(00:43):
just hit this flip and still be the best in
the room. Now that's some patty energy that we can
all get behind. We highlighted the women in season four,
like Grace Wisher, the twelve year old the Princess, to
Betsy Ross that stitched up the American flag, or Betty
Mason who went from being enslaved to all one than
half of la or Alice Parker since invented central heating,

(01:04):
just furthermore proof that women been bringing the heat. You did,
but of course it wasn't all wins, right, We had
to talk about the ugly stuff too. Jay Marion Sims
aka the so called father of gynecology out here performing
experiments on black women without anesthesia. Then you fast forward
with that to today and black women still don't get
the care they deserve in hospitals, like how are you

(01:25):
more likely to die from stereotypes than actual diseases? But
we also showed love to the culture HBCUs, like WSSU
and FAM the first Black football game that was us
even discuss the parallels of HBCUs and PBIS predominantly black institutions.
Then the language they used back in the day, like

(01:46):
drape domania, that what they called enslaved folks who wanted
to escape, Like oh you want to be free? Oh
that must be a disease. And now we're here done,
and I know you like down, that's got to be here,
right nip in the words of Jesus at that wedding
when they ran out of wine. Let's keep the party going.
Starting in March, we dropping new episodes every week. And

(02:09):
it's not just black history anymore. It's anything that I
didn't know. Maybe you didn't either. For example, did you know.
Jalil White Erkle auditioned to play Rudy on The Cosby Show. Yeah,
Rudy was supposed to be a boy, but Keisha Knight
Pulliam pulled up and was like, yeah, I'm him. Or
here's something else that I didn't know. Maybe you didn't either.

(02:30):
A snail's mouth is smaller than the head of a
safety pin. But hey, y'all twenty thousand teeth. Oh yeah,
we diving into all the random, weird and amazing stuff
that I didn't know. Maybe you didn't either. So stick
with me, and I promise, we'll laugh, we'll learn, and
we'll leave every single episode saying damn, I didn't know.

(02:54):
Maybe you didn't either. No, stay curious.
