Stuff You Missed in History ClassTracy and Holly talk about the bummer story that didn't make it into Unearthed!, kids who discover things, and Indiana Jones.
Welcome to Stuff You Missed in History Class, a production of iHeartRadio, Hello and Happy Friday. I'm Tracy V.
Wilson and I'm Holly Fry. We talked about our autumn installment of Unearthed. Yes, something we did not talk about at all because I just felt like it was too big of a bummer and also an ongoing immediately as I was working on this. It might have even did it happen in September or October? The person who cut down the tree in the gap in Hadrian's Wall, we didn't talk about that.
That's none on Earthed.
It's just not really on Earth. It's a thing that happened at a historical site.
And I don't know. I was like, people might ask why we didn't talk about this. That's why.
The kid who found the coin in the sandbox, Yeah, the last time we had something that was about a child that had found something in school. I was just charmed and delighted by the photos of this child who had no patience.
It looked like a historically significance. Yeah, I loved it. I loved it.
So the photos in the video that I saw of this particular little boy who this was in German. It's possible that had I emailed my friend who lives in Germany, to say, can you tell me what this video says, she might have elucidated some things, but she also has COVID right now, and I did not want to bother her with work question. It does not have the same demeanor of like no patience for any of this, but does just seem absolutely unfazed by being on television right now. So I found that amusing. Also, we were gonna be sure to mention, yeah, we are aware that there is antikytheris stuff in the ladiest latest Indiana Jones movie. I'm aware of this, having not even watched it myself. Do you want to hear my ridiculous reaction to that film?
Sure? So I was lucky enough to get invited to the premiere. Yeah, so Brian and I went, which was very, very fun and I truly truly loved it. Like for me, this was like someone reached in my brain and said, what would Holly like to see in an Indiana Jones film? I love it when that happened. Yeah, but what was funny? And they pronounced it differently? They say antiquetta and it's often matts Michelson saying it which makes it very alluring but also scary the second that was introduced Because I knew nothing about it going in, I was like leaning over to Brian periodically and going that part's true, that part's true, that's not true at all. Sponge Diver did find it, like I was like obsessed. But what was funny is as and like that was just a magical evening. John Williams conducted an orchestra before the movie started, with several pieces played from the Indiana Jones over of music and it was just amazing. But as as the film ended and we had plans because we had other friends that were also there, I just like looked at Brian and I said, I feel so sorry for the people were about to have drinks with, because they're just gonna get NonStop me talking about the anti KITHR mechanism. Yeah, boy, did I like that movie. And as we were doing this, I was like, I think Tracy knows that that's a key part. I mean, the whole movie is about it essentially. Obviously they attribute some qualities and capabilities to it that are not real in any kind of way. But I was like, I feel like if we don't say anything about this. A lot of people are going to be like, did you guys not know that. I feel like we probably will have gotten emails by the time this Friday episode comes out asking why we didn't mention it in the episode itself. I still am thinking a lot about how fun it would be to make that Suffragette card game.
Oh yeah, Suffragette card game is so. I hang out with a lot of people who are very into games and design games and make games and write games, a lot of game people in my life. And every fall we take a long weekend and a bunch of the same circle of friends we hang out at a very big house that we all rent together as a group for a long weekend, and there's a lot of playing games that usually happens there.
And I can just see in my head that group of people playing the Suffragette game and like screaming jail, Jail, Jail at the top of their lungs. I mean, listen, you don't have to be playing a game. You could just yell jail, jail jail for fun now and again. But it does seem like it would be enjoyable as a game. Yeah, yeah, uh so, yeah, and I think I might go dig up. It seems like like there was a printed There was a scan of the rules which I read, and I really do think there's like a PDF of all of the card faces. That would be an easy thing to you know, print out and stick on some card stock, I suppose. I'm like that seems like work. Would those cards be smoothed? Like, I'm already into the logistics space.
Yeah, Holly is not in the world of print and play games.
No, I want factory laminated for smooth shuffleing. Yeah, that's what I want. Yeah. I also really enjoyed the Barbe letter that oh yeah at the end of the first part, because it was really about like Austin's identity as right right, a place of free spirits, which.
Which really was what my curiosity had been when I posed that question, Like, man.
Was that a good place for our bet to have settled back into? Right? And it's right? Like maybe?
So, yeah, whatever's happening on your weekend, I hope it's gonna go great, whether it's work time or leisure time or some other time. I hope it's gonna be as good as it can possibly be. We will be back with a Saturday Classic Tomorrow.
We will have a brand.
