Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yesterday was the anniversary of the invention of the chocolate
chip cookie. Not really important in any way, but the
chocolate chip cookie was invented in nineteen thirty eight, and
somebody for some reason pointed out that we have four
US senators that are older than chocolate chip cookies. Uh,
you know, I'm skipping this. Uh that's giving the question

(00:20):
of how exactly you date the birth of the chocolate
chip cookie whatever. That that's not the important part of
this story. The important part is our oldest U S senator.
So the chocolate chip cookie was invented in nineteen thirty five,
our oldest U S Senator, Ian Feinstein, Democrat, was born
in nineteen thirty three. Nineteen thirty three, she was old
enough to fully know what's going on when World War

(00:43):
two started. That's incredible. Grassley, same age, also born in
nineteen thirty three. He's a Republican, So he got a
Republican Democrat who shared the same birth year just months apart,
nineteen thirty freaking three. Wow. Then it's a Senator Shelby
who's a Republican born in thirty four. Senator in Half

(01:04):
also Republican born in thirty four. Then you get to
the kids. Lay He who was born in forty and
Bernie Sanders, who was born in forty one. Those your
oldest U S. Senators. Wow, Bernie's that old? Yeah, fern
Art Sanders still still energetic. That's forcibly, President Hilary stolen
from me. It's four senators older than the chocolate chip

(01:25):
cookie thirty three. You can't have an age limit. That's
got to violate free speech or something. I don't know,
but come on now, Well, like we were playing clips
from Henry Kissinger, he seems like he could be a U. S.
Senator if that was what he wanted to do. His
mind seems to be fine. He's gonna be a hundred
here in a couple of months. So I would read
his speeches instead of listening to them his paces. It's

(01:47):
always been slow, but I just found that amusing. Well,
Jack had been around for many moons, many moons, many
buck moons, hey moons, berry moons, and thunder moons. That
all of that is happening tonight. The buck moon also
known as name moon or the berry moon or the
thunder moon. Did you see the moon last night? And
last night was not the peak? Is tonight? I was
outside last night. I left my house and went over
to the Park in the Dark. Don't look at it,

(02:09):
freaking stunning. That was my favorite moon I've seen so far.
Park in the Dark was Dr seuss unreleased controversial fourth book. Uh,
the Big and Bright Supermoon will be the third of
four super moons in a row and the biggest and
brightest of the year. That was the brightest moon I've
ever seen. Last night, I remarked out loud to passers by,
that's the brightest moon I've ever seen. Look at the moon. Yeah,

(02:32):
it's something. So if you want a really good moon,
like a moon that will knock your socks off, check
this one out. What is it called. It's the buck moon,
the full buck moon, also known as the hey moon
or the Berry moon, or the thunder moon, buck hey
berry moon. Okay, yeah, that's a pretty good moon. Full

(02:52):
buck hey berry, fullbull hey berry full buck hey berry moon.
And take a right. I don't take it now. Left out.
Thunder Moon two, Barn Strong and Yetty
