The Blue Plate Special is served every Tuesday and Thursday at 12:15 p.m.—a quick, lively show where Andy Andrews dishes out stories, laughs, and perspective on all kinds of topics. Sometimes he’s flying solo, sometimes a guest pulls up a chair, but every episode is a fresh helping of fun you’ll want to come back for again and again.
Join us in this episode as we delve into the intriguing events of May 23 throughout history. Discover the fate of Spanish explorer Hernando De Soto in 1542 and the infamous end of British privateer Captain Kidd in 1701. Learn about Benjamin Franklin’s announcement of his bifocal invention in 1785 and the ambush that ended the lives of American outlaws Bonnie and Clyde in 1934. We’ll also touch on the founding of World Turtle Day in 2000 and much more!
