Do you remember the day that Fara Fassa
0:04
died. I do not, and I'm ashamed,
0:07
but you.
0:07
Know it was the same day as Michael Jackson,
0:10
was it. I'm Morocca and
0:13
I'm excited to announce season
0:15
four of my podcast Mobituaries.
0:19
I've got a whole new bunch of stories to
0:21
share with you about the most fascinating
0:23
people and things who are
0:26
no longer with us.
0:29
From famous figures who died
0:31
on the very same day, This next
0:33
pair could not be more different, Former
0:36
British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher
0:38
and Annette Funacello.
0:40
She brought us not only the Mickey
0:42
Math Club, but the most influential
0:45
was beach blanket mingo.
0:48
To the things I wish would die
0:51
like.
0:51
Buffets, stuffing goods,
0:53
ham chicken, most beef and trim.
0:56
People actually take little tastes along the
0:58
way with their fingers.
0:59
Oh they do. Oh mo, I'm so
1:01
sorry.
1:02
Do you need a minute?
1:03
This is the only interview where I needed a spit bucket.
1:06
I'm so sorry.
1:08
We'll tell you about the singer who
1:10
helped define cool.
1:13
She had a.
1:13
Scarf, and she had curlers
1:16
and sunglasses, and someone looked at her and said
1:18
are you, Peggy Lee, And she said
1:21
not yet.
1:22
And the sports world's very first
1:25
superstar.
1:26
Jim Thorpe, an American Indian, the
1:28
only winner of both Pentaplan and the
1:30
Kaplan.
1:31
To call Jim Thorpe the greatest athlete in American
1:33
history is not a stretch because no
1:36
athlete before since has done what
1:38
he did.
1:39
And I'll investigate the death of the accent
1:42
that once dominated culture.
1:45
That's the only thing we have to
1:47
fish.
1:51
The idea that that's the way you wanted to hear your leaders
1:53
speaking is a different kind of America
1:55
than today.
1:56
All that and much more you
1:58
can listen to Mobitchuar on the iHeartRadio
2:01
app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever
2:03
you get your podcasts. I
2:06
think that you'd either get below the fold on
2:08
A one, or you'd at least get the Little Reefer,
2:10
the little go to box Squad. Thank
2:12
you for having thought of this, and
2:15
you were plotting my
2:16
Death as I came in here today
