    I always love when Tom gets sassy and tells us to calm down but when he said, "First of all, don't ever think about interrupting me again!" I lost it!!! Bahahaha!!! 😂😅😂

    I was watching this with headphones on in the exam room at the doctor's office. Evidently I was laughing loudly because when my doc came in she goes, "What are you watching?! I could hear you laughing at the end of the hall." Oops. But I might have gotten you another subscriber. She loves history and NYC.

Hugely important in the field of electrical engineering, it enabled things like long-distance telecommunications and early electronic computers, which was a foundationally important step in getting us to the modern world.

I know you have your own agenda, but I’d be fascinated to know more about places like, The Bronx, Harlem, and even the 5 points of Hell’s Kitchen and it’s early history there. Thanks a lot for what you do, and always look forward to your next vids! Especially when you sing because, well you know, it’s always pretty good!

    It's true. "Necessity is the Mother of Invention". As yes, people commonly used Corn Cobbs ! But when Hotels installed the Flush Toilets, Some of these same Corn Cobb users, were trying to flush them down the Toilet ! Of course, the results were disastrous. That's when Scott Paper, came to the rescue, with Toilet Paper. In doing so, not only did it have a better solution for Human Hygiene ... But it saved the Hotel Industry.

    I know of someone named, "Durr". In the Metropolitan Opera there's a guy who's a tenor who looks just like him (from the 60's). Tying up bears is proof that you being "failed lawyer" is you being a good guy? Bears are sometimes known as cops and should a person go to jail . . . getting shot in jail just isn't fair? Koala bears look like Teddy Bears. Hunted into near extinction by Aborigine tribesmen (with a name that is similar to the 'N' word) UNLESS they could survive by eating the Eucalyptus leaves laden with alkaloid (heroin, cocaine, etc.) while hiding from the killers on the ground below. Elvis . . . "love you, Teddy Bear."
