No, 3 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,120 Speaker 1: though I'm flattered you think I can afford a light 4 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: bright Okay, then what is it? Well? I was reading 5 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: about our famous figures for today, Nicola Tesla and George 6 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: Washington Carver, and I was inspired by Tesla's work with 7 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:24,080 Speaker 1: electricity and by the fact that Carver was a celebrated painter. 8 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: So don't tell me you made your own kind of 9 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 1: light bright thing called a blight. Yeah, I just combined 10 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 1: B and light blight. You may want to rethink that name. 11 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: But beat, do you have any experience with electronics or 12 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 1: wiring or no?

Mr Bruno is 75 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: here with us right now. Mr Bruno, what words of 76 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: encouragement do you have for these two star students. They're 77 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: they're definitely stars, and uh, just good luck to you. 78 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: I think you're doing a great job. Okay, and Mr Bruno, 79 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: if you were a gambling be I mean a gambling man. 80 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: Which contestant would you tell your bookie to pit fifty 81 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: on and let it ride large? You know, hypothetically speaking, 82 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: Mr Bruno, I'm gonna I'm gonna jump in here and say, 83 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: our lawyers have requested that I ask you to not 84 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: tell us which child you would gamble on in this scenario. 85 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: We yeah, that is a very small our decision. So 86 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 1: that's who is. Now, Let's find out who was George 87 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: Washington Carver with four fast facts Prospects. George Washington Carver 88 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: lived from eighteen sixty four to nineteen forty three. He 89 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: was an accomplished painter and showed paintings at the World's Fair. 90 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: Carver's book on How to Grow the Peanut and On 91 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 1: Five Ways of Preparing It for Human Consumption revolutionized the 92 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: peanut and the peanut industry. He was the first Black 93 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,799 Speaker 1: American to have a national park named after him. Prospects, 94 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 1: and how's that for working for peanuts? I feel I 95 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: need to smooth something out and let people know that 96 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: George Washington Carver did not create peanut butter, but he 97 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: did help popularize it. Okay, well, it sounds like you're 98 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: advocating for smooth peanut butter. There, I'm a crunchy gal myself. 99 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: Why I'm not surprised You've always seemed kind of crunchy 100 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: to me. Ellie, what's your stance on peanut butter? Do 101 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: you like it smooth crunchy? What's or none? What's your preferred? Uh? 102 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: Smith is definitely smooth, Kinsley, What about you? Do you 103 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: prefer smooth peanut butter or crunch of peanut butter or 104 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: no peanut butter or I guess those are all the options. Um, 105 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 1: I don't really care, but I would prefer smooth peanut butter. 106 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: We've got to smooth smooth criminals here, smooth operators to 107 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: smooth peanut butter criminals. Now that we're all buttered up, 108 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: it's time to move on to our first game. True 109 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: or false? True, false? It is false? Is a false? 110 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: Or is a true? It's a true that it is false? 111 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: It was true or true? True or false? Thank you 112 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: Eric for this game. The will read a statement. You 113 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: will then let us know if the statement is true 114 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: or false, just like the title of the game. Now, 115 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: this is our first game, so each question is worth 116 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: one point each. The first question goes to Ellie. Take 117 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: it away, being though we know him as George Washington Carver. 118 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: For most of his early life, George went by the 119 00:06:54,720 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: name Carver's George. Is this true or false? True? That's right. 120 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 1: It's true. He was born to parents who had been 121 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 1: enslaved by Moses and Susan Carver and did not have 122 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: the last name of his own, whose slavery was abolished 123 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: when he was a baby. He still went by Carver's 124 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: George until about the age of thirteen, when he, like 125 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: many formerly enslaved people, took the surname of his former owners. 126 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: The next question is for Kinsley Highland College, where George 127 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: was accepted after completing high school, was the first educational 128 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: institute that turned him away because he was black? Is 129 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: this true or false? False? That's right, it's false. As 130 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: a young child, George was also turned away from his 131 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: local school because it was for white children only. He 132 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: had to travel many miles to a neighboring town to 133 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: attend the school that was for black students. George would 134 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: end up doing this several more times over the course 135 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: of his early life. He never let it get in 136 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: the way though, of his thirst for education and knowledge. 137 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: The next question is for Ellie. The Tuskegee Institute, a 138 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: historically black college and vocational center in Alabama where George Todd, 139 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: was established by another famous Black American whose initials are 140 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: the same as the acronym for by the way bt 141 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: W or BT dubs false. I'm sorry, that's true. The 142 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: B t W is Booker T. Washington, a leader in 143 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: the black community, later advised several presidents. George decided to 144 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: leave his life in Iowa to go teach at the 145 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: new Tuskeee Institute because it felt it could do the 146 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: most good for his community there. The next question, this 147 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: is the last one for the round, goes to Kinsley. 148 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: George is best remembered for his work as being the 149 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: patron Saint of peanuts, but another name he could have 150 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: earned was Sir Sweet Potato, because of his work encouraging 151 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: farmers to grow sweet potatoes. Is that true or false? 152 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: I think it's false. I'm sorry that was true. George 153 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: wanted to help southern farmers improve their soil and their incomes, 154 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: encouraged them to stop focusing on cotton and instead grows 155 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: sweet potatoes, cowpeas, sweet beats, rice, soybeans, and alfalfa. And 156 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: those are the ingredients for a great salad, which we 157 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: can now eat because it's the end of the round 158 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: salad time, everybody, true, true, true, great rounds and thank 159 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: you all. You're both doing fantastic. Let's touch base now 160 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: with our producer Jane for the scorers, Jane Wary right now, Oh, Elliott, 161 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: funny should ask we are tied up at one a piece. 162 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: Ellie and Kinsley both have one. Thank you, Jane. Close game. 163 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: It's a tie game already. That's contratty, but it's it's 164 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: still anyone's game because there's a lot more game to 165 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: get to. Well, Elliott, technically could not be my game 166 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: or your game, but it could go to Ellie or Kinsley. 167 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: That's true. I guess there's billions of people all over 168 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: the world who this game could not go to. So 169 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: really it's not anybody's game. It's either Ellie or Kinsley's game. 170 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 1: Will be more precisely my wording, thank you specially. I'll 171 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: keep that mind as we come back after this short break, 172 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: Eric play us some nut music if you would. Th 173 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: nuts are not nuts? M H. Welcome back to the 174 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: Who Was Podcast. Today we're learning all about who was 175 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: George Washington Harbor and who was Nicola Tesla? And now 176 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: back to your host, Elliott Calein in thank you be. 177 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: Our scores as we enter this next round are Ellie 178 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: one and Kinsley one. They both got one. These are 179 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: fierce competitors, so let's get right to finding out more 180 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: about Nicola Tesla, the man who inspired an electric car 181 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: brand with four fast facts. Tesla was a Serbian born 182 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: in Croatia and lived from eighteen fifty six to ninety three. 183 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: He improved electricity by engineering the alternating current, the way 184 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: we still get power in our homes to this very day. 185 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: One of his early jobs, digging ditches, led him to 186 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: find backers for his research. Only after his death did 187 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: he get credit for his pioneering work with radio waves, 188 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: which paved the way for television and the Internet. You know, 189 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: when you really start digging into his work, no pun intended, 190 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: because he dug ditches, at one point you really realize 191 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: how many things we still use today that we're all 192 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: started by Nicola Tesla. Yeah. I mean, if it wasn't 193 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: for him, I wouldn't have all these unanswered emails and 194 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: text messages and group chats that I'm like sixty responses behind. On. 195 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: So thanks a lot, Tesla. Yeah, thanks Tesla for get 196 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 1: everything nice we said about him. But let's move on 197 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: to our next game, something we call invention or deception. 198 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: In this game, we list an invention that Tesla made 199 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: and gave a reason as to why he invented it. 200 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: If the reason is correct, the contestant will say invention. 201 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: If the reason we give is incorrect, the contestant says deception. 202 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: And this this is our second game. Each question is 203 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: worth two points. Kinsley her up first. Nikola Tesla made 204 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: his own candles when he was just a little boy 205 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: so he could stay up as late as he wanted 206 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: to and read invention. That's right, invention. He was always 207 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: an ingenious person who would cover up his keyhole and 208 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 1: shove sheets under the door. Snow light would escape and 209 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: he could read until the wee hours of the morning. Luckily, 210 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: his whole life he didn't need very much sleep. He 211 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: only slept for a couple of hours a night. We 212 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: assume he was spending that time reading who was books? 213 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: Perhaps this next question is for Eli. Tesla designed the 214 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: Tesla Coil because originally he wanted to compete with Slinky 215 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: and find a toy that could go downstairs and get 216 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: its own theme song, like everyone knows it's Tesla deception. 217 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: That's right, deception. He invented the Tesla coil as a 218 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: way to turn low voltage into high voltage, which was 219 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: then released as a spark. The next question goes to Kinsley. 220 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,439 Speaker 1: Tesla pioneered controlling a toy boat with radio way so 221 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: his friend, a mouse named Stuart Little, could have joy 222 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: rides through the ponds of New York City. Deception. Yes, 223 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 1: that's right, deception. He did use the boats as a 224 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: way to demonstrate how radio waves worked by traveling through 225 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: the air. Stuart Little is, of course a fictional character, 226 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: so it would be hard for him to beat friends 227 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: with him, but you never know, maybe he was. I could. 228 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: I would love to be friends with a fictional mouse anyway, 229 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: or a real life mouse. Mice. If you're out there listening, 230 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: take the cheese. I'm friendly. Yeah. If there're any mice 231 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: listening to this and you're in bees house, go for it. 232 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: She's just trying to be friends. She's not trying to 233 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: trap here. Now. The patent for radio technology first went 234 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: to Tesla's rival Google O Marconi, but the Supreme Court 235 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: overturned those patents shortly after Tesla's death. Oh so close, 236 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: too late for Tesla to make any money off it. 237 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: The next question goes to Ellie Nicola built the warden 238 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: Cliff Tower, named after the town of warden Cliff, Long Island, 239 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: where he hoped to send power and signals wirelessly to 240 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: the citizens or wardens of Wardencliffe and the world beyond invention. Yes, 241 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: you're right, invention. Sadly this plan didn't work out for 242 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: Tesla and get to shut down warden Cliffe, a tragedy 243 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: for the people of Long Island. This was somewhat the 244 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: beginning of the end for Tesla. He spent much of 245 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: the rest of his life feeding pigeons around New York City, 246 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: even bringing them back to live with him in hotels, which, 247 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: now that I know he was friends with the pigeons, 248 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: it makes it much more likely he could have been 249 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: friends with a mouse. And that was invention or deception. 250 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: That was a great game, everybody. Okay, let's go to 251 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: Jane with the scores. I can't wait to find him out. 252 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: Oh well yet and be You're not gonna believe this, 253 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: but we are tied yet again, each contestant having five points. 254 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: You know, be h. Both Nicola Tesla and George Washington 255 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: Carver they were so focused on their work that they 256 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: lived alone most of their adult lives. I wonder if 257 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: they ever got lonely. Yeah, I mean personally. I know 258 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: no amount of pigeons can replace human interaction. I do, 259 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: I know that personally. And Nicola did tell a newspaper 260 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: that he never married because having a partner would take 261 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: away too much attention from his work, but that it 262 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: was a pity for sometimes we feel so lonely. And 263 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: George Washington Carver talked about feeling lonely after his brother died. 264 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: If only George Washington Carver and Tesla could have helped 265 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: each other to feel less lonely, or even being friends 266 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: with each other. Oh sorry, wait, Elliott, it says here 267 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: we've got a new sponsor that can solve those problems. 268 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: Then what are we waiting for? Eric, Please play us 269 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: that we've got a new sponsor jingle, We've got a 270 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: new girl. Are you a work obsessed scientist in Turn 271 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: of the century America? My name is George Washington Cobble. 272 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: I thought I'd never make a friend who wasn't a 273 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: pig nut. My name is Nicola Tesla. I thought I 274 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: never have a pal who understood why I worked for 275 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: twin the hours straight every day for a year. Then 276 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: we try a science. E Science is the number one 277 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: social network for lonely scientists. We match brilliant geniuses who 278 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: have real chemistry, even if they are chemists. Okay, all right. 279 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: With E Science, you'll finally find someone who understands your 280 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: special childhood. Okay, not to brag, but as a kid, 281 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: I fixed the town fire hose. Now that's cool. But 282 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: did you have a nickname like the plant doctor? Because 283 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: that's what people called me. Someone with whom you can 284 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: share your strangest secrets. Anything made out of peanuts? Well, 285 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: I only eat milk, honey, bread, and vegetable juice, and 286 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: only at eight ten p m. Here's to highly specificate nebits. 287 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: You'll be surprised at how much you and your new 288 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 1: science friend have in common. You died in ninety three. 289 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: I died in nineteen forty three. Now what are the arts? 290 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: And who knows with his new friendship might lead. Okay, okay, 291 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: maybe this is crazy, but what about electric peanuts? Sir? 292 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:39,159 Speaker 1: I'm listening thanks E Science because unraveling the mysteries of 293 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: the universe doesn't have to me unraveling your social life. Wow, 294 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: what a great sponsor, and we'll find out what else 295 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: these two amazing scientists had in common. After this short break, 296 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: Eric plays some electric peanut music. Please this is La 297 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: rooms are on fire? Sally, Who was there? Marie Curie? 298 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 1: You may remember me from winning multiple Nobel crisis or 299 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: perhaps from my episode of the Who warst podcast where 300 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: I played myself. I wanted to take a moment to 301 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: read one of my favorite reviews about the Who Was podcast. 302 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: This is from Shaken Bay and it reads loved this 303 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: Me and my little sister love this show more. Please. 304 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: Our faith is ariet Toman.

We're back on the who 309 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: wast podcast. When we last left up, Ellie had five 310 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: points and Kinsley had five points. Now back to your host, 311 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 1: Elliott Galin, Thank you be. It's been a great game 312 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: today and it's going to continue to be a great 313 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: game as we go onto our last game. Which will 314 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: also be great. It's called converge of greatness. In this 315 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: multiple choice game, we'll explore how inventors George and Nicola connect, overlap, 316 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: or converge. And because we're in the third round, each 317 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: question is worth three points. Big points on these questions. Ready, Ellie, Ready, Kinsley, Okay, great. 318 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: The first question goes to Ellie be take it away, 319 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: all right, Ellie. Both George Washington Carver and Nikola Tesla 320 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: suffered from childhood illnesses that affected the course of their lives. 321 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: While George had about a whooping cough, Nicola caught which 322 00:19:55,320 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: of the following illnesses after completing high school A polio, B, 323 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: cooties or see cholera see color. That's right. The answer 324 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: to ce cholera. He had to stay in bed for 325 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: nine months after catching cholera. When we returned home, his 326 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: parents feared he would not survive. That's obviously different from cooties, 327 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,439 Speaker 1: which everyone knows at the time required at least twelve 328 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: months of bed rest. They had yet to invent the 329 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: cooty shot, which luckily science now knows is just circle, 330 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: circle dot dot. Kinsley, This next question is for you. 331 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: Both Nicola and George were raised with religion as a 332 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: big part of their lives. George felt spiritually connected to 333 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 1: a higher power through plants and nature, but Tesla felt differently, 334 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: even though he had this role at his church. Was 335 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: it a bell ringer be orthodox priest? Or see an 336 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: usher a bell ringer? That's right, he was the ringer 337 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: of the bells there. Tesla rang the bells at church 338 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: as a young boy, but he wasn't necessarily a spiritual person. 339 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: His father wanted it to become a priest. But once 340 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: when Tesla was very sick, he told his dad the 341 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: only way he would get better is if he could 342 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: go to school to become an engineer, and his father said, okay, 343 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 1: I'll allow it. Drama, drama, drama at the Tesla household. Okay. 344 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: The next question is for Ellie. Both Nicola Tesla and 345 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: George Washington Carver were invited to work with famous inventor 346 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 1: Thomas Edison, but only Tesla ended up working with Edison. 347 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: Why did Tesla eventually stop working for Thomas Edison? Was 348 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 1: it a Edison refused to give Tesla a bonus he 349 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: was promised b Tesla bought Edison's company or see Edison 350 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 1: stopped inventing and took up blind dancing. Hey, that's right, 351 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: the answers a Edison refused to give Tesla the bonus 352 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 1: that he promised them. Edison said he would pay Tesla 353 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: a fifty thou dollar bonus to redesign his generators. So 354 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: Tesla worked nineteen hours a day every day for a year, 355 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: but after a successfully updated the generators, Edison was all 356 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: that was a joke. That bonus was a joke. Likes like, 357 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: so thankfully Edison was an inventor, not a stand up comedian, 358 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: because it's not a very good joke. It feels like 359 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: more of a prank than a joke. It was part 360 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 1: of Thomas Edison's prank show light Bulb, which was it 361 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 1: was a lot of light bulb based pranks and just 362 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: surprising people with light bulbs in different places. It was 363 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: and there was no TV at the time, so no 364 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: one could watch it. So I really don't know why 365 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: he was doing it. Okay, the next question is for Kinsley, 366 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 1: All right, Kinsley Nicola Tesla was known for holding big 367 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: parties full of celebrities and giving grand speeches about his work. 368 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: George Washington Carver famously gave a speech that was only 369 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,360 Speaker 1: supposed to last ten minutes but ended up going on 370 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: for hours. It wasn't at a dinner party. But who 371 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 1: was he talking to? Was it a congress b his 372 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 1: plants or see the Royal Society of Arts in London. 373 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: I believe it's a congress. That's right, it's a He 374 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: gave a riveting talk to Congress that helped him pass 375 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 1: legislation to help the peanut industry. George was honored by 376 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: the Royal Society of Arts in London though, And if 377 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 1: he didn't talk to his plants, he was most definitely 378 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: what you would call a plant whisperer. And that's stirring 379 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: heavenly music means it's the end of the game, which 380 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 1: means it's almost the end of the show. Before we 381 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: get to the very very very end of the show, 382 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: James gonna tell you the points. And while she's doing that, 383 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: I'd love to hear from our contestants. What's something that 384 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 1: you were really surprised to learn about Tesla or Carver, 385 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: or something that really stuck with you that you thought 386 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: was really cool, Ellie, was there something that stuck out 387 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: to you about either one? So Nico Tesla knew about 388 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 1: like Internet. He already had that like in his head 389 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: that it's going to happen in the future. And I 390 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: thought that was really cool because it had it already happened. Yeah, 391 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: it's that amazing. It was like the nineteen thirties and forties, 392 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: and he was telling people someday you're gonna have a 393 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: machine in your pocket that you can look up any 394 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: information on the world or talk to anybody through and 395 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 1: nobody and what did they do that? They were they like, yeah, 396 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: you're right, Tesla, that's going to happen. Yeah, they laughed 397 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: at him, right, but they were wrong. And now Tesla 398 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: is the one doing the laughing. That's right. Pigeons, Yeah, yeah, 399 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: and his pigeon buds are just laughing at the rest 400 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: of us. Yeah, that was really cool. Yeah. I think 401 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: that also speaks to the way that they talked about 402 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 1: Nicola's sort of like mind and the way that it 403 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: worked that he could just see things so clearly in 404 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: a way that other people couldn't. Yeah, that he could 405 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 1: invent machines in his mind and test them in his 406 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: mind because he could visualize them so clearly. Kimsley, was 407 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: there anything about either Nicola, Tesla or George Washington Carver 408 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: that really jumped out of it, that made you really go, oh, 409 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: that's amazing. It's that he like already had the picture 410 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: in his mind and like he just knew how to 411 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,880 Speaker 1: build it already. He was just like, oh, I can 412 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: build this because he had a good picture. It's mine. Yeah, 413 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: I I even I have trouble thinking of like what 414 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 1: I'm gonna wear during the day in my mind, and 415 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: he could to put together an entire machine just in 416 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 1: his head. Mr Burna, what about you, Is there anything 417 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: about either of these historical figures that really stuck out 418 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: to you? Yeah? Read Tesla got his big break digging 419 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: ditches and the foreman heard I'm talking about some motors, 420 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: and so he's out there digging ditches and they got 421 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: a job. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. You always got to be 422 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 1: very verbal about your passions and dreams. Yeah, yeah, that's true. 423 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 1: The Tesla was really not one to hide his light 424 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: under a bushel. He would talk to anybody and everybody 425 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: about what he was interested in doing, and Carver was 426 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: the same way too.
