All right, now time for On This Day in History. We begin in 1849. Geneva Medical College bestowed a medical degree on Elizabeth Blackwell. She was the first woman in the U.S. to receive a medical degree. At the time, she was facing and women were facing near uniform opposition from male students and medical professionals about women in medicine.
Blackwell would go on to set up a clinic for the poor in New York City. And she was determined to treat as many patients as possible despite all of the pushback she was getting. Notable years later, 2017 is the year for the first time that a majority of medical students in the U.S. were women.
Yes, because it turns out that women don't go in there thinking they know everything. They ask more questions and that's turned out to be effective, especially when surgery is happening. So keep that in mind if you have to go in for surgery at some point. No insult to the great male surgeons out there just passing along the data that we saw recently.
On this day in 1941, Charles Lindbergh testifies before Congress and suggests that the U.S. negotiate a neutrality pact with Hitler. Charles Lindbergh, despite being a national hero for flying nonstop solo across the Atlantic, was very into Hitler, was very friendly with Hitler. They had lots of conversations where they shared their mutual hatred of Jews and other issues.
In fact, Henry Ford, the founder of Ford, was in those conversations. And there was actually a scenario, Jill, where Charles Lindbergh was considering running for president against FDR and might have won to keep the country isolationist. So a moment there in American history. Again, before Pearl Harbor, when the U.S.
was having a serious conversation and there were advocates like Lindbergh saying, you know what, just make a deal with Hitler. Let's not plan to go to war with him.
Yeah, scary, scary alternate history there. Fast forward to 1957 on this day, the Wham-O Toy Company introduced these new aerodynamic plastic discs they called Frisbees. Now to a bit of pop culture history, to the clue from the beginning of the podcast. Here's looking at you, kid. Of all the gin joints in the world, you walk into mine. Casablanca premiered on this day 82 years ago.
Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, a classic Hollywood film. Turning 41 years old today... Another classic, but in this case, music. Michael Jackson released Thriller on this day in history. And turning 40 years old today. Material Girl, not Madonna herself. Her song, Material Girl, released on this day in 1985.
Material girl living in a material world. Makes sense.
Listen, another generation memorizing Madonna lyrics.
Yeah, leave us those five star reviews. They matter. They help. They help us grow. They help expand reach here. So appreciate all of you who can leave us those reviews over in the Apple podcast store. But thanks for listening. We are getting through the week here. Happy Friday Eve and we'll see you tomorrow.
I know we have Hi, this is Mo Schwanunu, the Mo from Mo News. If you're familiar with us on Instagram or our podcast, I'm a longtime TV news producer who launched an independent news brand just a few years ago. As you know, Nicole is on maternity leave. So this week, my co-host Jill and I are guest hosting Money Rehab.
Each day, we're going to be sharing the latest episode of Mo News right here on the Money Rehab feed. So you guys get the news you need to know every day this week. Here's today's episode. Hey everybody, it is Thursday, January 23rd. You're listening to the Mo News Podcast. I'm Moshua Nunu.
And we read all the news and read between the lines so you don't have to. Jill, with that old expression that one man's trash is another man's treasure, a fun story I was reading about out of Greece where somebody apparently... threw away a statue, a headless statue that they thought was just, you know, garbage, put in a garbage bag in the city of Saloniki.
It turns out a resident was walking by and was like, this might be worth something, this headless statue. It turns out the statue, 31-inch statue, so just a couple feet tall, is 2,000 years old. You got to watch out there, I guess, especially in Greece. If you find something in your backyard,
something kind of sitting around you might be sitting on like ancient treasure even if it is a headless statue apparently uh police have an open investigation they talked to the person who threw it away they have not been charged with anything nonetheless this is from the roman era in greece so just a heads up don't quickly well i guess in greece this is especially important but even here in the us you might be sitting on something valuable as you clean out your garage
Be careful what you throw out. I mean, listen, you're not going to have millennia old stuff in the backyard on Long Island or anywhere else, but you might have something that's really valuable from 100 or a couple hundred years ago, you know, here in American historical terms.
You need to go, well, I don't know what's left there, but you probably should go do inventory ASAP, Jill, before mom gets rid of some more stuff.
making a lot of changes very quickly there as his team has been taking over.
A lot of pain right now at some of the legacy media companies.
