Summary

In this episode of The Brain Food Show podcast, we wrap up our discussion (for now) on one of the more remarkable individuals in modern history- Theodore Roosevelt. In particular we look at the truth about how and why the Teddy Bear was named after him and a boatload of fascinating Teddy Roosevelt facts conclusively demonstrating he was more awesome than we could ever hope to be. And as a little bonus to the Bonus Facts at the end, we discuss what the famous song The Rose has to do with the undisputed greatest show of all time- Star Trek the Next Generation. (Also we very casually allude to the fact that Teddy Roosevelt probably helped delay WWI by several years, but then completely forget to mention HOW he did it later on. We’ll remedy this in an upcoming episode. And let’s be honest, there’s always more interesting stuff to talk about concerning Teddy Roosevelt, so I’m sure we’ll come back to him for more episodes at some point in the future as well.) And as mentioned in the episode, here’s the Wikipedia page on various forced sterilization campaigns by nation. On another note, if you could do us a huge favor and rate and review this show in whatever podcasting platform you’re using (including hopefully giving us some feedback related to the new format), we would be extremely grateful. Thanks! (You can also discuss this episode and view references on The BrainFood Show forum here.)

it ended up being, but it was a long one where we told two bad-ass stories from President Theodore Roosevelt's life.

0:15.8

Basically, it was just, he's got so much stuff, he did so many crazy things that he couldn't fit it all into one episode without it becoming ridiculously long,

0:23.8

so we split it off and this is essentially part two.

Before we get into all of that, just a little bit of housekeeping to get us started.

0:57.9

There you go. I feel like we're Hello Internet with facts that's an interesting way to say that, but that's a good thing.

1:04.0

It is to imply, as if to say being like Hello Internet wouldn't be a good thing.

1:09.0

That's, or I, sorry, I think they say it's like Hello Internet, but in a good way.

1:14.3

So they must not like Hello Internet.

1:16.1
