  • Youngest U.S. Presidents Trivia

    So who were they? Listen to the show for goodness sakes!

  • Gerald Ford is also on the list of assassination attempted presidents, and he actually had two attempts on his life. What state did these both happen in? California.

    On September 5, 1975, Ford was on the street in Sacramento when Lynette Alice Fromme ran up and pointed an unloaded pistol at him. Police tackled her to the ground and she was arrested. She did this because she wanted to get attention for the Manson family

    What do you know, Joe?

    One of the most famous assassinations was that of Abraham Lincoln, who was killed by John Wilkes Booth in Ford's Theatre in 1865. What day was it?

    A. Holy Thursday

    B. Good Friday

    C. Easter Sunday

    Last Post Answers: A. Germany The German federal election was held on 18th September 2005. Although Merkel's party had begun the campaign with a 21% lead over the main governing party in the opinion polls, the final result was so narrow that it was two months before coalition talks between the two largest parties could be finalised and Merkel confirmed as Germany's new chanceller. She is the first woman and the first citizen of the former East Germany to hold the post.

    World Leaders Trivia

    History is fasinating!

  • Chandrika Kumaratunga was president of Sri Lanka from 1994 to 2005, leaving office in November of that year.

    As well as being the first woman to serve as as her country's president she was also the second woman to serve (albeit briefly) as the country's prime minister, the first being her own mother. When she was elected as president, Ms Kumaratunga resigned as prime minister and appointed her mother to serve once more as prime minister.Very Interesting.

    Iceland Trivia

  • Iceland was the last European country to be settled, mostly by Norsemen in the 9th and 10th centuries. They came mainly from Norway and in the Scandinavia area, and from the Norse settlements in the British Isles.

    All branches of the arts do very well in Iceland, especially painting, which started at the turn of the century. Literature has always been the mainstay of Icelandic culture. I could read and paint all day myself!

    In Reykjavík, the capital, there is a symphony orchestra, an opera house and ballet company.

    Famous Old-Time Comedians

    Marx Brothers Trivia

  • From 1929 on they were very active in film. Their first films they appeared as The Four Marx Brothers (Chico, Harpo, Groucho, Zeppo), but Zeppo left the movie business after Duck Soup. He didnt like acting much. From 1929 to 1949 they made 13 films. After that Chico and Harpo more or less retired, but Groucho started a second career as a show master in the quiz show "You Bet Your Life" which I use to watch as a kid late at night.

    Surf's Up!

    Kowabunga

  • Surfing wasn't dead in the Hawaiian Islands in the late 1800s, but it was drowning, along with most Hawaiian customs and most Hawaiians. After 125 years of Hawaiian-European contact/ conquest, the haole had tried to exercise control over just about everything Hawaiian: their Gods, their culture, their magic, their land and their lives.

    Coral Reefs

    So facinating

  • The whimsical names of corals — bubble, staghorn, starburst, and brain — hint at their spectacular appearance, but not necessarily at their true value. As the largest living structures on the planet, coral reefs are also among the greatest storehouses of biodiversity on Earth.

  • Coral reefs are also one of the most threatened marine systems. Scientists estimate that unless we take immediate action, we could lose up to 70 percent of coral reefs by 2050.

    I'm not a Doctor, but I play one on T.V!

    T.V. Trivia

  • Syndication – this is the terminology rather broadly used to describe secondary programming usages (beyond the original run). It includes secondary runs in the country of first issue, but also international usage. In many cases other companies or TV stations that do the syndication work, in other words to sell the product into the markets they are allowed to sell into by contract from the copyright holders, in most cases the producers. Actors, if they are lucky and have a good contract, can make a TON of dough as well!
