from “Have YOU heard?” · host Troy W. Hudson
Have YOU heard? January 2nd is the day when the first edition of the New York Times was published back in 1851? Imagine reading the newspaper without all the headlines we see today! It was originally known as the New-York Daily Times and it’s now one of the most widely-read newspapers in the world. Makes you wonder what news is going to break today, right? Did you know that January 2nd is also the birthday of the first human ever to appear in space? Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was born on this day in 1934. He made history in 1961 as the first person to travel into outer space, and his story inspired generations of space enthusiasts! It’s National Science Fiction Day, a day to celebrate all things sci-fi! From Star Trek to Star Wars, science fiction has sparked imaginations for decades. Whether you love aliens, time travel, or futuristic inventions, today’s the day to dive into a good sci-fi book or movie. Who knows? You might just get inspired to invent something out of this world! And it’s also National Buffet Day! Whether it’s a family gathering or a special occasion, buffets are a fun way to serve up a little bit of everything. You get to choose from a smorgasbord of foods, and it’s a great way to try new things or stick to your favorites. Today’s the perfect day to indulge in a buffet if you’re craving a variety of flavors! Isaac Asimov, the legendary science fiction writer, was born today in 1920. He’s best known for his Foundation series and his rules of robotics, which have had a major impact on the way we think about artificial intelligence. His stories shaped the genre and continue to inspire fans of science fiction. And if you're in the mood for something a little different, how about National Cream Puff Day? These delicious pastries filled with whipped cream or custard are the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth. Did you know they’ve been a favorite since the 1800s? A treat that never goes out of style! ⏰ Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:20 New York Times first edition 00:41 Yuri Gagarin - birthday of the first man in space 01:05 National SCIENCE FICTION Day 01:33 National BUFFET Day 01:57 Birthday of Isaac Asimov 02:22 National CREAM PUFF Day 02:41 Closing Watch and Enjoy!
