You’ve probably wondered this just as much as I have, or even “Google’d” it before!
The original name they came up with for Google was “Backrub”. Obviously that didn’t stick so they renamed it Google after the word googol, which is a term for the number one followed by 100 zeros.
Interesting.

We discussed what we think are cults this morning and then Anna found this page! Would it be considered a cult following, or just dedicated fans?
Anna is obsessed with Peloton even though she doesn’t even have the equipment yet – and that’s when she realized that she may be joining a cult. What do you think is a “cult” even though it’s technically not a “cult”?! Your calls are hilarious…and accurate.
Do you and your significant other have assigned chores? Anna and her husband have split the household chores into outdoor and indoor, with Anna handling the inside of the house and her husband handling the outside. But something has been going on that has Anna wondering if they need to hire someone… (:30)
Are you up to date on this week’s news? If not, Anna and Raven can help! Anna picks three crazy news stories, and Raven picks one to talk about. This week the options are; Someone who woke up after surgery with an Irish accent, a woman who held a fake funeral for her boyfriend, and a pet tiger who was wandering around Houston (3:25)
Sometimes you just zone out and stare off into space, it happens. But if you’re one of those people that has a serious staring problem, that’s all I need to know about you! (6:57)
Have you ever broken up with someone, and then gotten back together with them later? Did it end up being a good thing or a bad thing? Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are back after breaking up almost 20 years ago! Hopefully their reunion goes better than Producer Jon’s though! He got back together with his ex and it left him stranded in a different state! (10:40)
Have you ever started a new job, or joined a new gym and thought to yourself, “this feels like a cult”? Anna is obsessed with Peloton and she doesn’t even have the equipment yet. She just wants to be part of the community! One caller makes a compelling argument that this beloved staple of our childhood is totally a cult! (17:25)
Is your kid a biter? Anna’s 2 year old bit her the other day, and Anna started crying not just from the pain, but from the realization that her kid bites people! One caller had a very unconventional method to get her to stop, but Anna isn’t sure she’s willing to go that far! (28:05)
Couples Court: Mark and Dorothy for over a decade have hosted a massive Memorial Day party at their home with over 100 people. Last year it was canceled, and this year Dorothy wants to permanently reduce the invite list to about 20 people. She says it’s a lot of work and expensive! He thinks it’s tradition to have their huge blow out and the entire neighborhood comes. They can’t stop now! Whose side are you on? (37:45)
Raven is on a roll and the jackpot is up to $800! Does JJ have what it takes to end his winning streak and win the prize? (44:39)

If you have kids especially teens they’re probably on Tik Tok doing dance videos and trying to go viral.
This one woman in Pennsylvania has been posting videos of her 60-year-old father roller-skating, and now he has become a star on TikTok. She uses the hashtag #ShuffleDad which is hilarious. He doesn’t really do anything special. He just skates in circles to music at his local rink but the followers love it! He already has 10 million views and almost all the comments have been positive.
Here are some of the videos. Fun!

That got me thinking. Does Barbie have a full name? Or is it just simply “Barbie”?
She does have one come to find out, as well as a whole backstory! Barbie’s full name is Barbara Millicent Roberts. She is from Willows, Wisconsin. Her birthday is March 9, 1959. She also first made her debut when she was displayed at the New York Toy Fair.
