1 00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: Crystal ball, crystal ball, show me the future, show me 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:13,120 Speaker 1: it all, crystal ball, crystal ball show me. Heyb Elliott, 3 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,159 Speaker 1: you scared me and I dropped my crystal ball. Oh no, 4 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. Wait a minute, why would you have 5 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: a crystal ball? Well, I was hoping to predict the future, 6 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 1: but it wasn't working anyway. Clearly it should have told 7 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 1: me you were going to come in and ruin Maday. 8 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: Maybe I forgot to turn it on. But the you 9 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: don't need a crystal ball to predict the future. In fact, 10 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 1: it won't work at all. Instead, all you really need 11 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: is your imagination, like the two people were talking about today. Yes, 12 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,639 Speaker 1: two big names from the past who helped imagine and 13 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: shape the future, Jules Verne and Sally Ride. Jules Verne, 14 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: who imagined fantastic worlds of technological advancement in his popular novels, 15 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: and Sally Ride, who inspired a nation to dream big 16 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: with her pioneering work as a real life astronaut and beyond. Yep, Hey, sorry, 17 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: I bro your crystal ball. Yeah it's okay, it was 18 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: our rental.

Okay, 42 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: all right, well maybe that's something to work towards. Maybe 43 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: if you could work play the piano with your toes 44 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: and the violin with your hands. Well, thank you, Henry. Uh. 45 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: And today on the show, we also have Pressley. Hi. 46 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: I'm Pressley and I'm All Star cheerleadre Oh. All right, 47 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: that is so exciting, so uh, Pressley, please tell us 48 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: what's your favorite thing about cheerleading? Probably tumbling? Tumbling nice. 49 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: I think my favorite part of cheer leading would be 50 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: the vocal part of it, because I'm not very good 51 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: at tumbling. As it turns out, Presley, what is it 52 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: about tumbling that you like so much? I just like 53 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: learning how to do new skills. Very cool, that's great. 54 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: That's the most fun thing when you do an activity 55 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: is to learn how to do new things with it, 56 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: like tumbling while playing piano while playing violin at the 57 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: same time. I'm just thinking the two of you could 58 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: team up and really do your activities together. In a 59 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: way that challenges the world and changes the way people 60 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: think about violins and pianos and cheerleading. Thank you both 61 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: of you, and thank you to Eric, our musician, providing 62 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: that incredible meet the contestants music as well as all 63 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: the music you'll hear on the show today. So that's 64 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: who is Henry and Presley. Now let's find out who 65 00:03:55,880 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: was Jules Verne with four fast facts Prospects. Jules Verne 66 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: was born in France in eighteen fifty and died in 67 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: nineteen oh five. Verne wrote many classic novels beloved to 68 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: this day, including Around the World in Eighty Days. Jules 69 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: verne stories were among the first to combine real life 70 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: science with fantastical stories, in a style of writing we 71 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: now call science fiction. Jules was thirty years old before 72 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 1: he started writing the books that would make him world 73 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: famous Prospects. In his late nineteenth century stories, Jewels Verned 74 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:38,119 Speaker 1: predicted technologies like submarines and rockets to space decades before 75 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: they became realities. What science or technology do you think 76 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: we have today that would really blow Jules Verne's mind? 77 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: I think that you'd probably could probably be more puzzled 78 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:55,119 Speaker 1: about about how how our TVs work. I'm from now 79 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: and I get confused about how might TV works A 80 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: lot of the time. You're always texting me for your password, 81 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: elliott I said, just put it, write it down on 82 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: a piece of paper, and that's how. That's how used 83 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: alve that problem. Here's the thing. I also get confused 84 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: about how pieces of paper work. So it's something that 85 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 1: I just need a lot of help with everything. Uh, Presley, 86 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: what do you think? Did you have any predictions about 87 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: the future. What kind of machines do you think we 88 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: might have in the future? In a machine that will 89 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: solve my mask back? Yeah, that would be helpful for 90 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: all of us. I think I wish I had something 91 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: like that, and I need a machine that has my 92 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: passwords for my TV. Although then I'll need to have 93 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: a machine that keeps the password for that machine, and 94 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: I'll need a machine that's the password for that machine. 95 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna need so many machines, you know what. We Uh, 96 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: we should just keep moving on. But those were great answers. Yes, 97 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: as we're very good answers. Are you getting those answers are? 98 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, it cannot be sure, Fern Jules. But 99 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: technology even eyes. The great George barn Put have predicted 100 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: the world changing. Who was app Who was that? You want? 101 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: Someone in the past? Wow, Jules Verne, Hey, do you 102 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: want to help us with the first round of our game? Well, 103 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: I'm not here to play. How you say hungry hungry hippos? Yeah, 104 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: that's how you say it. But here's what we're going 105 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: to do. It's a game we call true or false. 106 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 1: Whereas Juels might say ray Ufoe, Hey, Eric, do we 107 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: have a special ray Ufoe staying for jewels? Yeah? False? 108 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: As Eric never ceases to amaze us, they have a 109 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: jingle for everything. Okay, In this game, Jules Verne is 110 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: going to say something about his incredible light, and you'll 111 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: have to tell us whether what he's saying is true 112 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: or false. And because this is our first game, each 113 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 1: question is worth one point each. So this first question 114 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: is for Henry. You're at first okay, already True or false. 115 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: My father was a little bit upset when I began 116 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: my writing career because he wanted me to join the 117 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: family business, which was running at cheese shop. False. You're right, 118 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: it's false. The burn family business wasn't cheese It was 119 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: the slightly less smelly profession of law. Take that lawyer's 120 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: lawyer burn. Jules's father, Pierre wanted his son to become 121 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: a lawyer just like him, Right, Jules, you can say 122 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: that my father Pierre really put a lot of Pierre 123 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: pressure on me. You couldn't say that, and you did. 124 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,239 Speaker 1: But as Jules's success grew, so did his father's support 125 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: of his career. Now how you say, um hugged it out? 126 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: How lovely? Okay, This next question is for you President Waila. 127 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: True or false? In eighteen seventy I had to put 128 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: my career on hold while France was fighting something called 129 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: the Franco Prussian War. That's right, it's true. You're right. 130 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: France was fighting off an attack by the Prussians which 131 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: we would now call Germans in the Franco Prussian War, 132 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: and Jules lent his services by piloting his boat to 133 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: the San Michelle to help search for enemy ships. I 134 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: did not find any enemy ships, but I found new 135 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: determination to write the greatest books I could. How inspiring. 136 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 1: The next question is for Henry Jules, Okay, true or false? 137 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: Twenty thousand Leagues Onto the Sea was my super smash 138 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: heat novel, which followed the Brave Captain Nemo and his 139 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: adventures playing faithball on the ocean floor. False. Yes, that's false. 140 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: The leagues in twenty Leagues under the Sea were in 141 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: baseball leagues. They referred to an old way in which 142 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: we measured underwater distances. Exactly, Elliot, my friend, But I 143 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 1: do get that base part thing a lot. Okay. Resley 144 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: is up next. Okay. One of my first books was 145 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: about an adventure in a hot air balloon. But it 146 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: wasn't a very big seller until one of my friends 147 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: started flying a giant hot air balloon around Perry. True 148 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: or false. False, I'm sorry, that's true. Five weeks in 149 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: a balloon with the name of the book is not 150 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: a big hit at first, but and Jule's friends, the 151 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: eccentric photographer and writer named Nedair, captured France's imagination by 152 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 1: demonstrating a giant balloon. The book took off. Oui monsieur 153 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: Nedir in crib. He called this giant balloon Gian because 154 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: Gian means giant in French. A gentleman and a genius 155 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: and a Gian, and my book wrote a wave of 156 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: French hot air balloon favor. And now let's ride that 157 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: fact to the end of round one and the end 158 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: of true or false true true true true poorful? Ah, 159 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: does this mean I must go? I'm afraid so, Mr Verne, 160 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: But thank you so much for visiting well where the 161 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: pleasure it was all mine. The future is a fantastic world, 162 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: beyond even my imagination. Now, could you direct me to 163 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: the nearest rocket to the moon. This is the future. 164 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 1: You have those No, no, we don't have those. But 165 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 1: you can have a phone that fits in your pocket. 166 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: I have no idea what any of those words mean. Okay, 167 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I guess in Jules Verne day, they 168 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: didn't really have pockets. Learn something new every day. Now, 169 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: let's touch base with producer Jane for the scores. We 170 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: have a very close game. Presley has one point and 171 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: Henry has two points. Thank you, Jane. Those scores are 172 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 1: very close. It's still anyone's game and we'll get right 173 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: back to the game after this short break. Eric, please 174 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: play us some future music if you would. The song's 175 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: gonna have, the song's gonna add the songs about down, 176 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: the songs about and the song is gonna the song ended. 177 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Hulas podcast. Today we're learning all 178 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: about who was Jules Verne and who was Sally Ride? 179 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 1: And now back to your host, Elliott Kaylin, thank you be. 180 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 1: Our current scores are Henry too and Pressley one. These 181 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: are fierce competitors, So let's get right to the next 182 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: game by finding out more about Sally Ride with four 183 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: fast factors. Sally Ride was born in California in ninety 184 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: one and died in Sally Ride became the first American 185 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: woman to fly to space in Sally's intense physical training 186 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: for her space flight included exercises like being dragged behind 187 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: a speedboat while wearing a space suit. Sally will the 188 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: first openly l g B t Q person on United 189 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: States currency when she appears on a quarter entering circulation 190 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 1: in two that's this year. Wow, what a pioneer. How 191 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: about you, Henry? How about you, Besley? Do you think 192 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: you'll ever be able to go up into space? Do 193 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: you want to? And if you do, what do you 194 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: want to do there? Henry shaking his head, No, you 195 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: don't want to go into space? Yeah, tell us more 196 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: about that? Why why not? Well? What is that like? 197 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: It's not going to take its toll on the body 198 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: to I don't have to have to train for a year, right, Yeah, 199 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: that does seem like a lot of time just to 200 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: like go somewhere, Like, I don't want to have to 201 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: train for a year, you know, to go to San 202 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: Francisco or Seattle or Chicago or Akron or Toledo. Well, 203 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 1: now Toledo, i'd train for a year. Okay, we're training 204 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: for a year to go to Toledo. Op Pressly, what 205 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: about you? Have you ever thought about going into space? 206 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: Is that's something you'd like to do. I just want 207 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: to go up there, and since i'm waitless, I can 208 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: just do like flips and stuff. Yeah, imagine how much 209 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,959 Speaker 1: great cheerleading you could do with no gravity. You could 210 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: fly through the air with the greatest of ease. That 211 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: would be amazing. Henry, is this making it sound any 212 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: more exciting to go into space? No? No, okay, given 213 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: a big shake of the head. No, I understand that 214 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: that means more astronaut ice cream for us. It's okay, Henry. 215 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 1: Don't worry. We'll send you a postcard though. Yeah, yeah, 216 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: I wish you were here from space. Well, I understand. 217 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: Those are great answers. Everyone's got their own opinions about space, 218 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: and there's a lot to think about it. There, So 219 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: let's move on to our next game. It's all about 220 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: Sally Ride, and it's called multiple Space Choice. I like 221 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: that theme song. That's great. It's like multiple choice questions, 222 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: but about space. You'll hear a space question and three 223 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: space answers, and you'll have to tell us which one 224 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: is the space correct one. And since this is the 225 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: second round, each question is worth two space points. Are 226 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: you ready? B did you just write a multiple choice 227 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: game but use the word space for every other word 228 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: hex space? Now? Okay, Presley. Before she became an astronaut, 229 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: Sally Ride went to Stanford University to become a scientist 230 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,439 Speaker 1: who studies the properties of space. This kind of scientist 231 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: is called a a space propertist, be a cosmonaut, or 232 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: see an astrophysicist. That's right at C. An astrophysicist is 233 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: what you call someone who studies the properties of space. Oh, 234 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: you mean, like it's hugeness or its emptiness. Yeah, we're 235 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: it's second home in Taus. That's another property that space has. Okay, Henry, 236 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: this next question is for you. After being selected to 237 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: be an astronaut, Sally was surprised to find out that 238 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: out of four thousand people working at NASA's Mission Control 239 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: in Houston. How many of them were women? A About 240 00:14:55,080 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: two thousand, B about forty or C about four B. No, 241 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: I'm sorry the answer is C. When she arrived at 242 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: NASA ninety seven, Sally found they were just under a 243 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: handful of women working there, But she paved the way 244 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: for thousands of other women who broke through and followed 245 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: her lead over the years since then. The next multiple 246 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: space choice question is for Presley Pressley. For her first 247 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: Space Shuttle mission, Sally Ride helped both design and operate. 248 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: What important piece of equipment was it? A A navigation system, 249 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: be a giant robotic arm, or C a space heater. D. 250 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: That's right, it's be a robotic arm. The massive robotic 251 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: arm that Sally helped design was used to move equipment 252 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: and even to launch satellites into space. Plus, I'm assuming 253 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: giant robot arms were also used to give giant robot hugs. 254 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: And the last question is for Henry all right, Henry. 255 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: After her career as an astronaut, Sally started a company 256 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: called Sally Ride Science with the help of some colleagues 257 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: and her partner of twenty seven years, Tam O'Shaughnessy. What 258 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: did that company do? A. It made robot arms for 259 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: American homes. B. It promoted science education, especially for girls. 260 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: Or see it sold t shirts that said ride Sally 261 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: Ride B. That's right, it's be Sally Ride. Science created 262 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: programs to inspire young people to pursue their love of 263 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: science and science careers, especially girls. And it worked. More 264 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: and more girls are going into science and that can 265 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: only be a good thing. Indeed, and that's it for 266 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: multiple space choice, Choice Choice. That was a great space game. 267 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: Now let's go to space Jane with the space scores. 268 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: A space eliot. I believe these scores right now? Are 269 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: Presley five Henry four? All right, Well, with all that 270 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: talk about space, I've realized I need a little space 271 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: for myself. Let's take a break, fair enough us, and 272 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: we'll be back with the last thrilling game in just 273 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: a bit. After this break, Eric, please play us some 274 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: giant robot arms music. Please massive capture Sally. Who was there, 275 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 1: Marie Curie? You may remember me from winning multiple Nobel prizes, 276 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: or perhaps from my episode of the Worst Podcast where 277 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 1: I played myself. I wanted to take a moment to 278 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: read one of my favorite reviews about the Who Was Podcast. 279 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 1: This is from Shaken Bay and it reads loved this 280 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,959 Speaker 1: Me and my little sister love this show more. Please. 281 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: Our faith is Rietman. If you want to hear your 282 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,439 Speaker 1: review right on the air, make sure to subscribe, like 283 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: and review to the Oast podcast in the I Heart 284 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: Radio up or wherever you get your podcasts A revoir 285 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: Should I stay abio? We're back on the Who Was Podcast. 286 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 1: When we last left off, Henry had four points and 287 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: Presley had five points. And now back to your host, 288 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: Elliott Klin, Thank you be, and now it's signed for 289 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: our final game, Converge of Greatness. In this multiple choice game, 290 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 1: we'll explore how the lives of Jules Verne and Sally 291 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 1: Ride connect, overlap, or converge. And because we're in the 292 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: third round of the game, each question is worth three points. 293 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: Are you ready? Okay? The first question goes to you, 294 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: Henry be take it away, okay, Henry. Sally Ride wrote 295 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: a book about her real life experience of spaceflight, called 296 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: To Space and Back. Jules Verne wrote a space flight 297 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 1: book too, about and imaginary trip to Space. What was 298 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: that book called? Was it a From the Earth to 299 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: the Moon, be around the Galaxy in thirty five days, 300 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: or see the Intrepid Star Travelers from Beyond Time see 301 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: I'm So sorry. The answer was a The book was 302 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: called From the Earth to the Moon. It also had 303 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: a sequel called Around the Moon, and it inspired the 304 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: first ever science fiction movie, which was called A Trip 305 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: to the Moon. Okay, let's move on to the next question, 306 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: which is for Pressley. In his Moon books, Jules Verne 307 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: predicted that rockets to space would someday take off from Florida, Florida. 308 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: That's so specific, And indeed Sally Ride's space Shuttle flights 309 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: took off from what Florida location? Was it a cape? 310 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: Jules Verne b Cape Canaveral or see Cape Disney The Yes, 311 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: that's right, it's b. It's the Kennedy Space Center at 312 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: Cape Canaveral in flori where that fights took off from. 313 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: NASA wanted to do launches near the ocean in case 314 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: the astronauts got in trouble and had to splash down 315 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 1: to safety, and amazingly, astronauts splashing down to safety is 316 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: another aspect of space flight predicted by Jules Verne. Also, amazingly, 317 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: no one at Cape Canaveral actually wears a cape. They 318 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: wear spacesuits. Makes sense, right, Well, they don't want to 319 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: be too on the nose, you know, it's not cape 320 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: Cano's role, all right. Henry Jules Verne wrote about nineteenth 321 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: century technology helping someone get around the world in a 322 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 1: zippy eighty days. In her pioneering space flight, Sally Ride 323 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: orbited around the world many times in just six days. 324 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: But how many times did Sally Ride travel from Earth 325 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 1: to space altogether? A once? B twice or see three times? 326 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: A space pioneer lady, See, I'm sorry, it's actually be 327 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: Sally Ride was the first American woman to go to space, 328 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: and also the first American woman to go to space twice, 329 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 1: once in nine eighty three and once in nineteen eighty four, 330 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: not any times after that. But it's still not fair 331 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: she went to space twice. I haven't even been up 332 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: there once. All right, get in line, buddy, okay. Last 333 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 1: converge of greatness question is for Pressley. Sally Ride inspired 334 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: millions of girls with her career in space. But we 335 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: also know that Jules verne book Around the World in 336 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: eighty Days inspired one particular young woman to try her 337 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: own trip around the world. In eighty nine she succeeded too, 338 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: and just in seventy two days. What was her name? 339 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: Was it a Julia Verne b Edith Alice Poe or 340 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: see Nellie Bly? See that's right, The answer is see 341 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: it was Nellie Bly. Newspaper readers in America loved her 342 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: stories from her adventures around the world. Plus during her travels, 343 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: Nellie even got to meet Jules Verne himself. Great job everyone, 344 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: and that's it for Verge of Greatness. And that was 345 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: our final game of the game. But while we wait 346 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: for Jane to telly the final points, I'd like to 347 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 1: hear a little bit more from our contestants. What's something 348 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: about either Jules Verne or Sally Ride that really surprised 349 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: you or stuck out to you or made a big impression. Yeah? 350 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 1: How should be surprised about? How? Really? About how Jewels 351 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: friend his father reacted to him becoming a writer. Yeah? 352 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: Did you think he would have been more excited about 353 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: him becoming a writer if he was Oh yeah, I 354 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: mean if he was alive today, he'd be like, let 355 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: me see if you wrote any books that that did well, wow, 356 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: they're all still here? Yeah, Okay, go ahead and do it. 357 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 1: I would say, as someone who's a writer, I think 358 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: it's great to be a writer. It's pretty bold of 359 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: Jewels to say, like, you know what, I gotta do 360 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: my own thing. I have to carve my own path, 361 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: and this is what I think. And that he became 362 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: so successful. And that's another real similarity between Jewels Run 363 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: and Sally Ride. Is there both people who I'm sure 364 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: we're told at different parts of their life you can't 365 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: do the thing that you want to do. I don't 366 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: want you to be a writer, or you can't be 367 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: an astronaut. But they pushed through and they did it, 368 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: and that's really exciting. If you want to do something, 369 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 1: then do your best to make it happen. And don't 370 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,479 Speaker 1: listen to people who say that you can't. Unless they 371 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,360 Speaker 1: say you can't play a violin with your hands while 372 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: you play a piano with your feet. That might be, 373 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 1: now that I think about it, that might be a 374 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: little too difficult.
