Random things I’ve learned from listening to the Jack Benny (radio) Program:
-If a bowl of wax fruit was already considered old fashioned and tacky in 1954, how come they could still be found in garage sales and doctor’s offices in the 1970s?

All these things I wondered about when I hear them mentioned (2 Thanksgivings, V-mail, etc.) that I then go out and research on Wikipedia or Google. Very interesting.
