Last week was the 41st anniversary of this week's headlining event. The Beatles had broken up long before this day, but that didn't make the mourning from around the world any less significant when John Lennon was murdered in New York City. What else was being reported on the same day?

On October 1, 1908, an advertisement appeared in newspapers around the country. That advertisement, although not front page news at the time, changed the world of transportation in the United States. That advertisement announced the sale of the first Model T Ford -- the first car meant to be affordable for everyone. What else was being reported around the country on the same day?

August 6, 1945, was a major turning point for the Pacific Theater during World War II. Some people think dropping an atomic bomb was unnecessary and some think it was the only option. No matter what your individual opinion is on the subject, the truth is that the bombing of Hiroshima wasn't the only thing being reported that day. What else was happening around the country and world?

For those listening in from the United States today, Happy Thanksgiving! Today's extra special mini episode has absolutely nothing to do with Thanksgiving, but it does have to do with one of my favorite subjects--buried treasure. This treasure isn't just a legend, though. This one is proven to be real. But, almost forty years later, it's still missing.

On November 29, 1895, only a couple newspapers printed about today's featured famous event from the day before. At the time it wasn't that big of a deal, but it turned out to be the first of many, many events like this one all over the world. And, the event was quite entertaining so I couldn't help but tell you all about it -- along with three additional history stories from the same day.

In 1866, as the United States government started to rebuild from the Civil War, they decided to add a few new cavalry and infantry units. The units were made up of the first professional Black soldiers in the country. Those men soon became known as Buffalo Soldiers and were there for some of the country's most historical moments. Listen to learn more about this special group of veterans.
