Speaker 3 (00:36):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Really realized that the daughter.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
The daughter was the first lady.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Sang number four realized that.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
The most expensive video game console that has come out
in the last thirty years when adjusted for inflation, of course, yeah,
was the Segas Saturn and this was in nineteen ninety five.
It would have cost about over eight hundred dollars in
today's money.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Yeah, the PlayStation three he was a close second though,
that's just under eight hundred dollars. But that Sega Sidron
back in the day was pricey for what it was.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
You would know you've got little ones, and they don't
play video games that often. I don't think. But what's
the most popular game out there right now? What's everybody playing.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
I couldn't tell you.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
There's big.
Speaker 3 (01:15):

Number three.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
When JFK was single in nineteen forty one, he dated
a journalist. Her name was Inga Arvid and she was
one of Hitler's personal guests at the nineteen thirty six Olympics.

Oh no, I know she was there.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Wow. Number two.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Led Zeppelin is the fifth best selling album in the
US history. That's led Zeppelin four twenty four million copies sold,
But it was never number one on the Billboard charts.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
It only peaked at number two.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
I did not realize that. I thought, I'm sure that
was a number one. Number one.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
The longest golf hole in the world is a one thy,
one hundred yard hole in South Korea, par seven.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
There's no way it's a par seven.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Par seven, And if you somehow managed to get a
hole in one on that on that whole, it would
be called a phoenix if you did it in two shots,
that would call it an Ostriche an ostridge.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Now teach me something that's cool, right there? Test Tuesday's umber.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Paul Bakari wrote the song let it Be, but then
he sent it to Aretha Franklin and she recorded it,
but she held up the release for the song for
so long that the Beatles just decided to do it themselves.
It became one of their huge hits. Now Aretha eventually
did release her version, but of course.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
It's not as well known.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Right.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Number four rainbows are actually full circles.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Really, we just can't see the other half because.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Of the ground.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
If you were to be able to see the whole thing,
it's the way the light reflects it would create a
full circle.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Love it.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Umber three Johnson and Johnson was founded by three guys
named Johnson, not just too like the name implies. They
were all Robert James and Edward Johnson.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Oh why the three instead of two? I did not know.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
The Netherlands has a defense system where they can turn
the provinces of North and South Holland into an island
because they can flood any potential crossings into those provinces.
And it's part of their national defense system.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
That's wild.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
That is wild in the Statue of Liberty.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
We know it celebrates the relationship between France and the
United States. It was also made to celebrate the centennial
of the Declaration of Independence, but it also is a
symbol of abolition.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
And the end of slavery.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
A lot of people don't realize it, but there is
a set of broken chains hidden partially hidden at the
feet of the Statue of Liberty, and that's part of
the symbolism of the whole entire thing to celebrate the
abolition of slavery.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I did not know that.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
A lot of people don't. That's why they're random.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Fact Wednesday Lego.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Bricks have been around for a long time, but the
bricks that were made back in nineteen fify fifty eight
would still fit perfectly with your modern lego. And the
reason why they're so insanely accurate, I mean the molds
that they use them. We're talking within two thousand, two
thousandths of a millimeter, Oh my god, which is point
zero zero two mm. If you're looking at that.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
That's unlivable crazy.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
And also with legos during the Christmas season, almost twenty
eight Lego sets are sold each second.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
That's still number five.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
No, that was another one. That was number four.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah, okay, all right now number three sorry number three.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
There are only twenty eight hotels in the world that
have three thousand or more rooms.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Oh goodness, fifteen of them are in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yeah, I could see that.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Out of twenty eight to fifteen of them are in
Las Vegas.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
I could see that.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Two.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
This is cool.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
The Beatles were so successful. Part of their success led
to CT scanning. What Yeah, Their early record label EMI
used to their profits to research medical technology, and that
money that research led to developing the full body CT scanner,
and it even led to a Nobel Prize.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
And it was all done with profits from the Beatles' music.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Why am I just hearing about you?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
Because that's what this bit brasy.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
That's crazy one.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
There are a.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
Approximately two hundred different types of fungui on your feet right.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Now, fun guy, on my feet?
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Fungus on your feet?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Huh, fun guy?
Speaker 4 (05:23):
How much about two hundred different types?
Speaker 2 (05:25):
We need an old fashioned foot washings what we need?
That's exactly what we needed Thursday.
Speaker 4 (05:31):
There is no record of a cheetah ever killing a
human in the wild.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Well that's good to know.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Makes you wonder. Has a cheatah ever killed anybody? Not
in the wild? They get a zoo.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
No only child has ever been elected president of the US.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
I didn't realize they have all had siblings.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
All had siblings. Give me number three, Mber three.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Another president fact, Dwight Eisenhower. Like that, the only president
who was baptized in office.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
During the nineteen fifty two presidential campaign, the word got
out that he had never been baptized, so he did
it twelve days after he was inaugurated.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
It was never the same, It was always good too.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Michel Entires, Michel Entires.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
We all know Michel Entires, and we all know you
want to eat at a restaurant that has a Michelin star.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Oh yeah, same company.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Yes, they got into the business of reviewing great restaurants
for its Michelin Guide in nineteen ninety so that people
would drive farther to eat and need new tires sooner.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Marketing brilliant, brilliant. Number one.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
And you are more likely to be stung by a
bee if you're eating a banana.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
A banana, yep, the chemical compound that gives bananas their
taste also works as a pheromone that makes bees angry.
The scent of bananas makes bees angry, so try not
to eat them outside or around bee I'm just.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Thinking to have something to do with the potassium.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
No, if you want to just decrease your risk, bees
are repelled by the scent of almonds, So munch on
almonds outside if you want to keep the bees away.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
That makes okay. I like that, But I'm an almond
fan too, I like you. Well, that's it, keep the
bees away. It's a Friday.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Let's count him down. You know, we're always really really.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Worried about black widow spiders, but maybe we should tone
it down just a little bit. They're not very aggressive,
and you'll often have to actually pinch or squeeze one
of them to get it to attack you. But their
venom will make a very painful bite. So and it's
two small animals like mice fatal. But yeah, just don't
provoke it, and you probably don't have to worry about
black widows fighters too much. The average person will take
(07:38):
about two hundred and sixteen point three million steps in
their lifetime, which is the equivalent of walking all the
way around the Earth five times, assuming the average active
person takes about seventy five hundred steps per day, give or.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Take number three.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
The first college football All American team was picked in
eighteen eighty nine, and the quarterback was a player from Princeton.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
His name was Edgar Allan Poe. Now he wasn't the poet.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
He was actually the second cousin of the author Edgar
Allan Poe, and he was named after him.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
That's pretty interesting.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Martha Stewart wants dated Anthony Hopkins, but she broke up
with him because she couldn't stop associating him with Hannibal
Lecter from Silence of the Lambs.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
But yeah, they used to go out, they used to
hang together.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
Over one and the World Meteorological Organization maintains a six
year rotating list of names for hurricanes. So we're looking
at a storm heading our way soon to be named,
I'm sure as a hurricane. But yeah, we already know
what the names are going to be for the storms
leading all the way up to twenty twenty nine currently.
