January 28th is Rubber Ducky Day

Edgar Allen P oe was born in January of 1809

London opened the first operational underground railway January 10th, 1863

Here's some TV shows and podcasts I've been listening to.

Podcast : "Hey Babe!" ? Hosts and comedians Chris Distefano & Sal Vulcano started this pod sharing crazy personal stories and their common experiences living in New

York! Very funny and interesting people!

TV Show : "Bridgerton" on Netflix ? My college roommates and I are watching this show during our weekly FaceTime calls and we're hooked! It's an "alternate history period drama"

about dating, marriage, and family.

Movie : "Palm Springs" on Hulu ? This film features past SNL cast member Andy Samberg and it's like a modern version of

"Groundhog Day" but with more weddings and drugs. I was pleasantly surprised with the storyline & character developments. Would Recommend!

On January 13th, 1930 newspapers across the US featured Mickey Mouse cartoons for the 1st time
