What’s Something You’ve Never Tried and Other Random Questions
Episode 540
Monday, 24 November, 2025
Welcome to Simple Joe. I’m glad you’re here. In this episode of Simple Joe, I kick things off with the fascinating fact that the very first website ever created, Tim Berners-Lee’s text-only page at info.cern.ch, is still online today just the way it looked in 1991, and I geek out a bit by “visiting” it in real time. I share the weather for my friends in Moscow, Russia and back home in Cincinnati, then we celebrate some big birthdays like Joe DiMaggio, Ricardo Montalbán, Annie Lennox, Ben Stein, John F. Kennedy Jr., Amy Grant, Billy Burke, and Christina Applegate, touch on Alfred Nobel patenting dynamite, and mark the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, Blasé Day, and National Parfait Day. It’s Tuesday, which means Random Questions, and today’s lineup will make you think. Here are the ones I pulled: Random Questions: If you could erase one everyday inconvenience from the world, what would it be? What’s something you’ve never tried but secretly think you’d be really good at? If your life had a theme song for today, what would it be and why? What is one ordinary object you think will be obsolete in 20 years? If you could instantly learn the entire history of any one country, which country would you pick? I share my off-the-cuff answers — some surprising, some personal, some a little philosophical — and invite listeners to think through their own. I wrap up with reminders about Wildcard Wednesday, how to share your thoughts, and of course, a nudge to make today epic, because memories are better than stuff.
