  • The USA does not own Antarctica?!?! HAWHAT?! Yeah, apparently it's a bit complicated and the story if full of some colorful characters. This is the story as told by the comedy geniuses - Map Men (Jay Foreman and Mark Cooper-Jones).

      @@michaelkennedy8270 JJ's style doesn't lend itself as easily compared to some lazy reactors. I'd bet a recent chunk of most reactor's audience is only watching for positive reinforcement and they'll barely care about the reactor themself. Whereas JJ going on little research tangents to investigate the topics or rewinding to catch all the jokes like Jay said isn't hitting that positive reinforcement as frequently.

    On the topic of penguins, you really need to look into Major General Sir Nils Olav III. Mascot of the Norwegian Kings Guard and resident of Edinburgh Zoo, he occasionally inspects the troops and it is excellent.
    To quote wikipedia: The next honour was a knighthood, awarded during a visit by soldiers from the Norwegian King's Guard on 15 August 2008. The knighthood was approved by King Harald V and Nils was the first penguin to receive such an honour in the Norwegian Army. During the ceremony a crowd of several hundred people watched the 130 guardsmen on parade at the zoo, and a citation from the King was read out, which described Nils as a penguin "in every way qualified to receive the honour and dignity of knighthood".

    Re. 🎶"Jerusalem" - by "The Hoppers" sounds like a cheesy Europop song...rather than the hymn "Jerusalem", with music written by Sir Hubert Parry in 1916. The famous orchestration was written by Sir Edward Elgar in 1922, & features every year at the "Last Night of the Proms" in the Albert Hall in London. The lyrics are based on "And did those feet in ancient time" - a poem by English poet & painter William Blake, from the preface to his epic "Milton: A Poem in Two Books" printed in 1808. Blake was generally dismissed as bonkers in his lifetime, but was highly regarded by later critics, as being ahead of his time. Ho-hum.

    that's the wrong Jerusalem song. The song referenced started as a poem by William Blake in 1804, set to music by Hubert Parry in 1916.
    And did those feet in ancient time,
    Walk upon Englands mountains green:
    And was the holy Lamb of God,
    On Englands pleasant pastures seen!
    And did the Countenance Divine,
    Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
    And was Jerusalem builded here,
    Among these[c] dark Satanic Mills?
    Bring me my Bow of burning gold:
    Bring me my Arrows of desire:
    Bring me my Spear: O clouds unfold:
    Bring me my Chariot of fire!
    I will not cease from Mental Fight,
    Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand:
    Till we have built Jerusalem,
    In Englands green & pleasant Land.
