🍻Popping the Cap on History's First Canned Suds!
from “Have YOU heard?” · host Troy W. Hudson
Today is National Peanut Butter Day! Now that's something to get "nutty" about! Did you know it takes about 540 peanuts to make one 12-ounce jar of peanut butter? Talk about a "spread-tacular" amount! And here's something that'll make you go nuts - peanuts aren't actually nuts at all, they're legumes! And speaking of spreading news, on this day in 1935, the first canned beer was sold by the Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company! But here's the "hop-ening" truth - they were so nervous about how it would be received, they gave away the first 2,000 cans for free! Talk about a "can-do" attitude! I guess you could say they really "tapped" into the market! Neil Diamond was born on this day in 1941! Before becoming the "Sweet Caroline" singer we know today, he actually started out writing songs for a whopping $50 a week! Talk about a "diamond" in the rough! I guess you could say he really made his career "shine" on! These puns are getting "crystal" clear, aren't they? Want to hear something that'll really make you say "gold-y"? Today in 1848, James Marshall discovered gold at Sutter's Mill, starting the California Gold Rush! But here's the "nugget" of truth - Sutter ended up going bankrupt because all his workers left to search for gold! Talk about a "rush" to judgment! And here's something to "compliment" - it's National Compliment Day! Did you know giving someone a compliment can actually boost their performance by up to 44%? That's what I call "praise-worthy" research! And hey, you're doing an amazing job listening to these terrible puns! See what I did there? And finally have you heard the number 1 song on January 24th 1958 was: At the Hop by Danny & the Juniors. ⏰ Timestamps: 00:32 National Peanut Butter Day 01:00 First canned beer was sold 1935 01:20 Neil Diamond's Birthday 01:43 California Gold Rush starts 1848 02:04 National Compliment Day 02:35 Number 1 Song from January 24, 1958 Watch, Learn and Enjoy!
