Jun 25th: Bucket List Triple Threat

DayStrider: Nostalgic Tales for Knowledge Seekers

June 25th is a Bucket List Triple Threat because of the fun things and interesting places that originated on this day in history! Today’s stories include:

• A celebration of Catfish Day - do you know what “Catfish Noodling” is?
• How the diary ponderings of a newly minted teenager became an international symbol, inspiring millions of readers
• Celebrating the birth of a world famous architect and his iconic masterpiece

If it's a special day for you or for someone you care about, why not learn a little more about today by listening to some fun, engaging stories. You’ll find yourself a little smarter and have some great stories you can re-tell - AND - have three things you can add to your bucket list! If you need some great gift ideas, we have those too (along with links to where you can find them on Amazon).
Today’s show mentions three bucket list items, some official links are provided here for you. (this link worked in mid 2024 - not sure how long the links will be available):

• Link to one of Hannah’s videos
• Link to the Anne Frank House museum
• Link to La Sagrada Familia basilica

Gift ideas for folks who celebrate June 25th:

• Celebrating Catfish Day with a shirt or hat will be sure to spark conversations everywhere you go.
• Anne Frank’s inspiring Diary is a great gift if your loved one is a reader - or if they like coffee table books.
• Sticking with that theme, coffee table books featuring Antoni Gaudi’s impressive works are nice. Perhaps some mosaic wall decor in his style is a better option?
• There’s lots of cool stuff to celebrate famous birthdays from today featuring Ricky Gervais, Linda Cardellini, George Orwell and George Michael.
