22 years ago the turtles scarf their
last pizza
when you think about it the Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles were an improbable
hit humanoid turtles named after
Renaissance painters who live in the
sewers it doesn’t sound like a shoe-in
for success but these heroes in a
half-shell became a staple of the late
80s and 90s with the original animated
series running for one hundred and
ninety three episodes until the tenth
season finale on November 2nd 1996 heck
they were half the reason we ate so much
pizza originally airing a shocking and

guide 42 years ago carry blood ease up
theater screens November 3rd 1976
nowadays screen adaptations of Stephen
King novels are a dime a dozen and while
some are brilliant masterpieces landmark
films and instant classics others are
the first and some argue the best was
Brian DePalma scary as scary today as it
was 42 years ago the spellbinding tale
of a bullied girl who discovers she has
dangerous telekinetic powers enthralled
and haunted both audiences and critics
in no small part thanks to De Palma’s
deft innovative direction and strong
performances from the cast
this classic overshadows the best
efforts of later adaptations and remains
a benchmark in the genre yeesh how do
ten years ago TI does whatever you like
November 1st 2008 a decade ago yeah
that’s ten whole years rapper TI gave us
whatever you like and listeners didn’t
just like it
hey loved it promising riches to a girl
with a brain so good because school she
went to college the pop rap track was
the lead single from TI’s album paper
trail and first reached number one in
September after temporarily making room
at the top for Pink’s so what it seemed
to finally relinquish first place to
TI’s own live your life and Britney’s
womanizer before charging back to number
one on November 1st and refusing to
budge for another two weeks no wonder he
was popping bottles all night 25 years
ago the advertising world’s original
thirst trap October 29th 1993 the famous
got milk ad campaign taught us the
perils of peanut butter sandwiches and
of course the virtues of Dairy believe
it or not the first commercial in the
series was actually directed by Michael
Bay yeah that Michael Bay of Armageddon
and transformers Fame which begs the
question how do you manage to hold back
all the explosions maybe they were cut
anyway the campaign went on to become
one of the most iconic in history you
know it’s hard to believe that the first
time we were asked if we got milk was a
quarter of a century ago and by the way
yes milk we get you got milk 37 years
ago r.i.p Lily and James Potter October
come to die in the world of fiction it’s
a week of both birthdays and sadly
untimely demise –is this Halloween 37
years ago
Voldemort arrived in Godric’s Hollow
hoping to kill a young Harry Potter the
Dark Lord used the killing curse to
murder first Harry’s father James and
then his mother Lily but as the words of
Otto Kedavra hung in the air over baby
Harry the wizard’s spell encountered
unexpected resistance created by Lily’s
self-sacrifice her love saved Harry and
destroyed Voldemort’s corporeal form in
the rest as we know is history you’re a
wizard Harry I’m a wizard eighty years
ago the radio scared the out of people
October 30th 1938 eighty years ago
aliens landed in New Jersey at least
that’s what was announced over the CBS
radio network October 30th 1938 actor
Orson Welles performed an adaptation of
the classic novel by HG Wells he’ll
relation however Orson’s take on the War
of the Worlds was in the form of news
bulletins causing many listeners to
panic thinking the broadcast was real
they thought Martians had really
attacked although why aliens would pick
rural New Jersey as their first point of
contact is anyone’s guess the program
caused outrage and calls for legal
action because how could people possibly
be expected to realize that an alien
invasion from Mars was fictional the
Martians are coming this way we must
evacuate the city take food with you who
knows how many years ago
happy birthday SID November 2nd oh I
can’t stand it got a cookie now c is for
cookie and many of us have Cookie
Monster to thank for that fundamental
knowledge the 2nd of November is the
monster otherwise known as SIDS birthday
and since he debuted on the first
episode of Sesame Street in 1969 a
confection addict is turning at least 49
it’s been a long road in the muppet
superstar reports having had some crazy
times as the Robert Downey jr. of
cookies but now acknowledges on camera
at least that cookies are a sometimes
food your feet I think we think of
your nose is a cookie to me that
lamppost is its cookies for me he shares
this week of birthdays with Beavis of
beavis and butt-head who turns 39 on
October 28th and Alf who on the same
days Beavis hits an impressive 262
cookies chronic and cats for all 12
years ago the pumpkin dance is breaking
news October 31st 2006 if you haven’t
seen the pumpkin dance have you really
lived the news industry is a tough
business especially when you’re on a
tight budget desperate to fill in time
during the underfunded ten o’clock
nightly newscast on Nebraska’s CW
affiliate KX vo anchor Matt Guyler
struck gold he would Don a unitard and
pumpkin mask and dance to the
Ghostbusters theme sure might not be
news but it was new we guess in 2009 the
clip went viral and in 2017 Guyler took
his act all the way to America’s Got
Talent
where he made the judge cuts the
classics never go out of style
[Music]
[Applause]
fifteen years ago there’s always money
in the banana stand
November 2nd 2003 how much clearer can I
say there’s always money it was the show
so good it wouldn’t say die back in the
early 2000s critics hailed Arrested
Development as the funniest show on TV
in fact many say it was one of the
greatest comedies of all time how’s my
son he’s going to be alright that’s a
great attitude I got to tell you if I
was getting missed news I don’t know
that I’d take it this well but you said
he was alright
yes he’s lost his left hand so he’s
going to be alright
okay it’s witty dialogue and absurd
larger-than-life characters were
influential beyond the show’s original
three season run so much so that it
returned for an encore in 2013 and again
in 2018 with a whopping 25 Emmy Award
nominations and six wins the show was
achieved lasting popularity despite all
the cancellations as audiences clamor
for more Bluth family antics let’s all
celebrate with a chicken dance 75 years
ago the Philadelphia Experiment messes
with space-time October 28 1943 don’t
screw with the space-time continuum
everyone knows that
but according to mysterious letters
received by astronomer and ufologist
Morris K Jessup in 1955 and is just what
the US Navy did at the Philadelphia
Naval Shipyard on October 28 1943
according to these letters and
subsequent conspiracy theories their
top-secret experiment turned the USS
Eldridge invisible then teleported the
ship around the country and even to
another dimension
they opened a whole
and it stayed open good god there it is
you could consider the alleged
experiment a great success except for
the crew members that got fused to the
hull and turned inside out
