Non-musical history for today: 301 – San Marino, one of the smallest nations in the world and the world's oldest republic still in existence, was founded by Saint Marinus. If you don't know where it is, it's a landlocked enclave country located INSIDE Italy. Italy is the only country in the world with TWO enclaves within its borders. South Africa has Lesotho within its borders, and I thought Eswatini was one, but it's actually on the border between South Africa and Mozambique, similar to Andorra,

Non-musical history for today: 1878 – Emma Nutt became the world's first female telephone operator when she was recruited by Alexander Graham Bell to the Boston Telephone Dispatch Company. I don't usually make fun of people's names, but I can't pass up the thought of "what if her name was Imma instead of Emma?" I guess sometimes you feel like one, and sometimes you don't.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for September 1. Recorded in the Omniverus Podcast Studios at Liberty

Non-musical history for today: 1997 – Diana, Princess of Wales, her partner, Dodi Fayed, and driver Henri Paul died in a car crash in Paris. I guess in a way it is musical because I was standing on a stage in a place called the Red Pepper Tavern when it was announced. Di, Dodi, Henri... none of them can rest in peace because it's an ongoing thing. Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for August 31.

Non-musical history for today: 1898 – Caleb Bradham's beverage "Brad's Drink" was renamed "Pepsi-Cola." In the soft drink world, I'd say that Pepsi isn't really in my favorites list. I don't mind the cherry-flavored Zero Sugar version. And, where I'm from they are the distributors of Dr. Pepper, which is my favorite, along with the cherry and cream soda versions. Zero Sugar is my go-to on those.Music history, album anniversaries, birthdays, and deaths for August 28. Recorded in the Omniverus

Non-musical history for today: 1955 – The first edition of the Guinness Book of Records was published in Great Britain. Yes, it is from the old stout brewery. I thought it was around a lot longer than that. This is only 70 years. I thought it was 1800s when it was first published.

Non-musical history for today: 1791 – John Fitch was granted a patent for the steamboat. Now, many people want to attribute it to Robert Fulton. Robert Fulton, along with his pal Robert Livingston, created the first steamboat service. Fitch, it seems, is the rightful inventor of the actual conveyance. Hence, the patent.

Non-musical history for today: 1835 – The first Great Moon Hoax article was published in The New York Sun, announcing the discovery of life and civilization on the Moon. The author of the narrative was apparently Dr. Andrew Grant, the travelling companion and scribe of Sir John Herschel. It described animals on the Moon, including bison, single-horned goats, mini zebras, unicorns, bipedal tail-less beavers, and bat-like winged humanoids ("Vespertilio-homo") who built temples.

Non-musical history for today: 1995 – Microsoft released (unleashed?) Windows 95 to the public in North America. Up to this point, Windows 3.1 was the go-to operating system for Applications (or "programs" as they were called). And I must admit some nostalgia for that old thing. And, Windows 95 was a major breakthrough at the time.

In August 2006, Norwegian police announced that a police operation had recovered both The Scream and Madonna, but did not reveal detailed circumstances of the recovery.

Non-musical history for today: 1945 – The novella Animal Farm by George Orwell was first published. It follows the anthropomorphic farm animals of the fictional Manor Farm as they rebel against their human farmer, aiming to create a society where all animals can be equal, free, and happy, free from human intervention. However, by the end of the novella, the rebellion is betrayed, and under the dictatorship of a pig named Napoleon, the farm ends up in a far worse state than it was before. It was
