Great topic! Yes, by all means keep the trivia and anecdotes coming.
Here's a little known fact. In "Speedy" Harold Lloyd's last silent film there is a segment filmed on location at Coney Island. Harold's new suit keeps getting soiled. As he walks past a fun house mirror, Harold flips the bird at his distorted reflection.

The book and jockey incidents were the most interesting to me. Thanks for the video!

I love the fashion from that era especially the evening gowns and the wedding dresses they all had huge bouquet of flowers

This was so fantastic. The Grand Ole Opry radio show debuted in November 28, 1925 and remains the longest running program, still broadcast. It’s origins are interesting. I could watch this all day.

I'm the one in my family who has a head full of useless but interesting facts rolling around upstairs. My family frequently asks me, "How do you know that?!?" so I completely understand your fascination with trivia. This video gives me more interesting information. I love the birds named Nip and Tuck 🤣

You often pique my interest enough for me to continue to delve further into subjects you cover for more information. You do a marvelous job. Keep up the great work! 👍

Great stuff. My father was a kid during the 20s, and when I was a kid during the 60s - 70s, I loved hearing his stories about growing up during the era. Keep up the good work here on your channel, cheers !!!

Bradford, who killed himself to prove there was an afterlife, was the most interesting to me. I also had no idea Coolidge kept so many pets. And Bessie Smith running after some 'hoods' and scaring them off was also amusing. Believe it or not, I knew about the dead man who won the horse race. Poor guy. He was so dedicated.

Your introduction describes a man after my own heart. I’m remarkably dull, rarely invited to parties held by interesting people, or even those less interesting.

Frank Hayes was seen to slump as Sweet Kiss crossed the finish line, or just after, depending on which June 1923 newspaper you choose. The one in this video says "after."

I became A huge fan of your channel during covid, when things opened up I stopped watching your vids but I’m back! Back when I was in high school my old teacher was born and raised in the 20’s he had so much knowledge about the time period I would come in during lunch and bug him for information

[suzp]

Fascinating thank you! My favourite part was that on the promotion of smoking outdoors for women but it was all great. Love your channel.

[sheilaabrahams]

This was great. More videos, please!

[Mr.H-YT]

Thanks so much for this video! I'm currently wrapping up work on a novel set in the 1920s that leans heavily on the Egyptomania in general and Tutankhamun specifically. Love to see a piece on "the curse"! Thanks for all the hard work.

Loved it all. Kerp, it coming this 1920s vintage lifestylers aka time warper loves your chanel

[robertgrace]

always love your series, but would love to see your take on one of the most famous literary critics of the 1920s, HL Mencken. I find it odd that he has never been mentioned in your posts despite being famous for, among other things, the Hatrack case involving the publication of Hatrack, a short story by Gangs of New York author Herbert Asbury
