Have you heard that February 5th honors a profession that some say is as much guessing as it is science? I’ll tell you what it is in due time - but first...

Speaking of TIME - On this day in 1924 - 101 years ago today the Royal Greenwich Observatory started broadcasting the first TIME signals from the famous Greenwich MEAN Time! I guess you could say they were pretty MEAN about keeping everyone on schedule!

And hold onto your sweet tooth, because today is also World Nutella Day! This chocolatey-hazelnut spread was invented in Italy, and it become a global sensation! Did you know the first jar was sold in 1964 over 60 years ago? Talk about spreading joy!

Oh, and here's something that'll make your jaw drop faster than a METEORITE - on this day in 1971, astronauts Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell walked on the moon during Apollo 14! They spent 33 hours on the lunar surface, which is a pretty LONG moonwalk - eat your heart out, Michael Jackson!

Have you heard that female monarch butterflies can lay up to 500 eggs at one time! Talk about having your wings full with the kids!

The #1 song on February 5th 1962 was Peppermint Twist - Part I by Joey Dee and the Starliters.

And finally...

February 5th is National Weatherperson's Day (also known as National Weatherman's Day) it honors all individuals working in meteorology, weather forecasting, and broadcast meteorology. The day also recognizes volunteer storm spotters, observers, and others who work in the weather field. This annual holiday commemorates the birthday of John Jeffries, born on this day in 1744. Dr. Jeffries, a scientist and a surgeon, is considered one of America's first weather observers. He kept weather records from 1774 to 1816. Additionally, Jefferies pioneered the field of ballooning in the United States and took his first balloon observation in 1784.

Have YOU heard that February 4th is a big day for a food that actually has healing powers - I’ll explain what it is later in the show - but first…

HERE'S something that'll make you say "Holy cow!" - or should I say "Holy Facebook!" Because on this very day in 2004, a little website called Facebook was launched from a Harvard dorm room. I guess you could say Mark Zuckerberg really put his FACE in the book of history! Who knew that college project would turn into such a SOCIAL success?

Today's the birthday of civil rights pioneer Rosa Parks, born in 1913. She took a stand by keeping her seat, and that's no joke, folks. Her courage helped drive the civil rights movement forward, and that's something worth celebrating!

Here's a random fact that'll knock your socks off - the average person walks the equivalent distance of five times around the Earth in their lifetime! That's what I call getting your steps in!

The #1 song on February 4th 1984 was Karma Chameleon by Culture Club!

AND FINALLY… it's National Homemade Soup Day!

In every cuisine, soup provides a rich basis of flavor and history.

Before the era of modern transportation, soup was a product of regionally available foods. For this reason, there are thousands of soup recipes available today.

Many soups also offer medicinal properties. What was once considered a wive’s tale, chicken soup now has the backing of the scientific community. Yes, chicken soup helps relieve the symptoms of the common cold. How? Well, scientists believe that a bowl of soup may reduce inflammation of the lungs. It is thought that chicken soup slows down the activity of white blood cells that can cause inflammation.

Welcome to a "Have YOU heard?" EXTRA on Super Bowl 59 (LIX)!

We're gearing up for some super-sized fun facts about this year's Super Bowl on February 9, 2025 featuring the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.

Did you know that Super Bowl LIX will be the eleventh time New Orleans has hosted the big game? They hosted Super Bowls 4-6-9-12-15-20-24-31-36 and 47 from 1970-2013. The Big Easy is no rookie when it comes to throwing the biggest party in football!

Now, here's a quirky tidbit for you: The longest National Anthem performance in Super Bowl history clocked in at a whopping 2 minutes and 35 seconds, sung by Alicia Keys in 2013. Talk about hitting those high notes!

Get ready for a halftime show that'll knock your socks off! Kendrick Lamar is set to headline this year's extravaganza. From chart-topping hits to Pulitzer Prize-winning lyrics, Kendrick's sure to bring the house down at the Caesars Superdome!

Speaking of the Superdome, did you know it can hold up to 83,000 screaming fans? That's like filling up almost 2,000 school buses with football fanatics!

And here's a fun fact that'll make you go "aww": the last time the Eagles and Chiefs faced off was 2 years ago in Super Bowl 57 and it featured the first-ever sibling face-off when Travis Kelce of the Chiefs went head-to-head with his brother Jason of the Eagles.

As we wrap up today's show, remember that the Super Bowl is more than just a game – it's a cultural phenomenon that brings together football, fans, food, festivities and let’s not forget the commercials!

Have YOU heard that February 3rd is the day the music died - I’ll explain what tragedy happened later in the show - but first…

TODAY is National Carrot Cake Day. Speaking of sweet celebrations, here's a crunchy fact - carrots were first grown for medicine, not food! Those ancient civilizations really knew how to get to the root of good health. And while we're talking about orange things, the color orange was named after the fruit, not the other way around!

And here's a fact that'll feed your curiosity - Norman Rockwell, the legendary American artist, was born on this day in 1894. He created over 4,000 original artworks in his lifetime! That's enough paintings to fill a museum - which, by the way, actually exists in Stockbridge, Massachusetts!

Have you heard on this day in 1966, the Soviet Luna 9 spacecraft made the first soft landing on the Moon. Talk about a smooth operator!

The #1 country song on February 3rd 2010 was The Truth by Jason Aldean.

AND FINALLY…

February 3 is NATIONAL THE DAY THE MUSIC DIED DAY - it remembers the unfortunate and untimely death of singers 22-year-old Buddy Holly, 17-year-old Ritchie Valens, and 28-year-old J. P. Richardson, aka: "The Big Bopper." These three artists died in an airplane accident on February 3, 1959, near Clear Lake, Iowa. Their pilot, Roger Peterson, also perished in the crash.

Have YOU heard?

Did you know that January 27th is National Chocolate Cake Day? Now that's what I call a BATTER celebration! And here's a slice of history - the first chocolate cake wasn't made until 1764, when Dr. James Baker figured out how to grind cocoa beans. You could say he really TOOK THE CAKE with that discovery!

And talk about a NOTEWORTHY birthday - Mozart was born on this day in 1756! He wrote his first piece at age 5, which is pretty impressive considering most kids that age are still learning their ABC's, not their Do-Re-Mi's! He even had a pet starling that could sing part of his concerto - I guess you could say that bird was quite the TWEET composer!

Here's something that'll make you go PAW-SE and think - animals can be left or right-handed! They call it "laterality" in science circles, but I call it getting a GRIP on things! Polar bears are usually lefties, while parrots are RIGHT on board with their left feet. Talk about putting your best foot forward!

Now here's something to get CRACKLING about - the last Monday in January is National Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day! This protective packing material was originally invented to be wallpaper! Talk about POP art! I guess you could say that idea really got WRAPPED up in something bigger!

And here's one last fact that'll make you ROOT for nature - trees communicate through underground fungi networks! Scientists call it the "Wood Wide Web." I guess you could say they're really BRANCHING out with their social network!

And for a trip down memory lane, The #1 song on January 27th 1990 was How Am I Supposed to Live Without You by Michael Bolton.
