Today is January 17, and what happened this day in history? Well, as usual, quite a lot. So to highlight the flow of history, instead of talking about one event, I decided to talk about a few- just a smattering- of the historical events that occurred on January 17 that deserve to be remembered.

Devastating earthquake. 6,600 killed.
I like your cat
Love your show as always. I didn't know that you were a Coloradan. I am too. Estes Park High School class of 1990.
The first child born in the White House was the grandson of President Thomas Jefferson, James Madison Randolph, on January 17, 1806
Happy new year history dude 🎉
I wish I could go on that trip, but I’m hoping (praying) for a transplant soon, and wouldn’t be clear to go by then. sad face
Great episode, HG! Do more of them, maybe a weekly episode?
This was terrific. No pirates though. Maybe they didn't care what time it was. 😁Although there may have been a few pirates involved in some of these events.
All Hail The History Cat 🙂
On Jan. 17, 2024, you ask me to go to Dreary Old England with you?
Has Hell Frozen Over TOO ?
It’s a legit question. Hell is supposed to be warm…
Send me a postcard.
My grandmother would have appreciated this episode as we shared our birthdays on this day, she would have been 117 today.
Too cool
You forgot my daughter was born today lol
Was wondering if you have ever considered making a video about the first military reconnaissance flight in Laredo, TX march 3rd, 1911. Think it would be very interesting 😊

LZlE😅😅

This is fantastic, don't suppose you could do one everyday! It's perfect watching on my way home from work! Even if I've achieved nothing at work for the day I can learn somethings on my way home. Thanks for your hard work.
Watch out! That cute cat is a scene stealer!
Love the, "on this day in history" episode idea. You should do more.
January 17th I went to work. Day over.
