Interesting Things with JC #1302: "The Man Who Controlled a Computer with His Mind" – A man paralyzed from the neck down typed with thought alone. What began as science fiction became proof that the mind can still move the world.
Interesting Things with JC #1301: "Marilyn Monroe" – She was born unnamed in a charity ward and died a global icon. Between them: factories, fame, and a fight for authorship. Her story is not what you think.
Interesting Things with JC #1300: "When the F5 Came to Pennsylvania" – The funnel dropped fast. The roar came faster. Pennsylvania’s only F5 tornado left a scar on towns, science, and silence itself.
Interesting Things with JC #1299: "How to Properly Clean a Fish" – From Norwegian docks to Japanese markets, or out on the lake, cleaning fish was never just about hygiene, it was about survival, taste, and respect. The skill still matters.
Interesting Things with JC #1298: "86 Oldsmobile Cutlass" – It was America’s best-selling car, and a quiet accomplice in state secrets, back-alley deals, and unmarked government fleets. Beneath the vinyl and velour? A whole different story.
Interesting Things with JC #1297: "The Chain of Rocks Bridge" – A mile-long bridge with a hard 30-degree turn. Not a flaw...a feature. Built to defy the river and time, it bent where others broke. And it’s still standing.
Interesting Things with JC #1296: "What Was Cash for Clunkers?" – A national trade-in program meant to save the economy. Instead, it sentenced 700,000 engines to death. Fuel savings or forced extinction? You decide.
Interesting Things with JC #1295: "Get Out and Move" – A simple walk does more than stretch your legs. It grows your brain, lowers your stress, and resets your rhythm. The science is moving.
Interesting Things with JC #1294: "5/25/25" – It’s a once-in-a-century number stack, where day, month, and year align. Not a palindrome, not a mirror, but something deeper. A date that won’t come again.
Interesting Things with JC #1293: "Traditions of the Indy 500" – Before the engines roar, 300,000 people stand still. Milk is chosen. Bricks are kissed. A race becomes ritual. A track becomes sacred.
