Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, America to fifty. It is burying a nine
- 0:02Speaker 1: hundred pound time capsule today in Philadelphia. It won't be
- 0:06Speaker 1: opened for another two hundred and fifty years. We can
- 0:08Speaker 1: tell you. It's filled with items from all fifty states
- 0:12Speaker 1: and all US territories, from a copy of the Constitution
- 0:16Speaker 1: signed by all of the Supreme Court Justices to a
- 0:19Speaker 1: Coca Cola bottle. Chief Congressional Correspondent Chad Program is live
- 0:23Speaker 1: in Philadelphia with more.
- 0:25Speaker 2: Hey, Chad, Emily, good afternoon. Well, the ceremony commemorating two
- 0:31Speaker 2: hundred and fifty years is really about five hundred years.
- 0:35Speaker 2: They will open this time capsule in the year twenty
- 0:38Speaker 2: two seventy six. And that's why today is not just
- 0:41Speaker 2: about where we've been, but where we are going.
- 0:49Speaker 3: Today. We're not simply celebrating the past. We are speaking
- 0:53Speaker 3: to the future when this time capsule here to my
- 0:58Speaker 3: left is open two hundred fifty years, but in a
- 1:00Speaker 3: real sense, our voices will be the Americans of twenty
- 1:06Speaker 3: two to seventy six.
- 1:10Speaker 2: Multiple governors wrote letters for the time capsule. A last
- 1:13Speaker 2: assented state flag. Arkansas offered a diamond from the creator
- 1:17Speaker 2: of Diamond State Park, and Iowa submitted a Space Station
- 1:21Speaker 2: medallion that's for Peggy Whitson, the first female commander of
- 1:26Speaker 2: the International Space Station, but some items failed to make
- 1:30Speaker 2: the cups well in New York.
- 1:32Speaker 3: Next Championship ring would be incredible, and perhaps even a
- 1:36Speaker 3: World Cup for Team USA, which remains to be seeing
- 1:39Speaker 3: what happens, but they're on their way.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Some items inside the capsule could spark interest and scholarships.
- 1:48Speaker 2: There's hope the capsule intrigues people in the future to
- 1:50Speaker 2: study why certain things were important to us today.
- 1:55Speaker 4: I think a lot of times that when you start
- 1:58Speaker 4: peeling back the onion, you're like, Wow, that was really incredible.
- 2:01Speaker 2: I didn't know this person did X.
- 2:03Speaker 4: I think that's the opportunity for that discovery.
- 2:08Speaker 2: Now it will certainly be cooler in the ground with
- 2:11Speaker 2: the time capsule. The high today in Philadelphia one hundred
- 2:15Speaker 2: and two, but a lot cooler here two hundred and
- 2:17Speaker 2: fifty years ago. You know Thomas Jefferson, he was pretty
- 2:20Speaker 2: maniacal about keeping weather records. And one reading that he
- 2:24Speaker 2: took on July fourth, seventeen seventy six, at around one
- 2:28Speaker 2: o'clock in the afternoon, seventy six degree. It's very apropos,
- 2:35Speaker 2: isn't it though?
- 2:36Speaker 1: All right, no, tell us what is the most interesting
- 2:38Speaker 1: item do you think that's in the time capsule?
- 2:43Speaker 2: Well, I think one of the things that California sent
- 2:45Speaker 2: in they set in an Ai Claude prompt about what
- 2:49Speaker 2: it thought that the United States would look like in
- 2:51Speaker 2: twenty fifty. We don't know what it came up with
- 2:53Speaker 2: because it's in the time capsule. And something they could
- 2:56Speaker 2: not put inside the time capsule was a football. The
- 2:59Speaker 2: reason is that the leather from the football would degrade
- 3:02Speaker 2: over two hundred and halfty years.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Well, that football better have come from the former Oakland Raiders,
- 3:09Speaker 1: but I don't think it Did's okay, all right, guys,
- 3:11Speaker 1: thank you so much, and stay cool out there at Judd.
- 3:14Speaker 1: All Right, we're going to talk about it a little bit
- 3:16Speaker 1: on the counch. So all right, Katie, we talked about
- 3:18Speaker 1: this sort of in ingest in a commercial break. What
- 3:20Speaker 1: would we put in the time capsule if we could?
- 3:22Speaker 1: What's something that you would put in?
- 3:24Speaker 5: I would put in a revolving series of clips of
- 3:27Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk. And when I think about America two fifty,
- 3:30Speaker 5: I think about his love of country, his love of Christianity.
- 3:34Speaker 5: It's something that I think two hundred and fifty years
- 3:36Speaker 5: from now, if we were broadcasting out, I would say,
- 3:38Speaker 5: listen to this man. Listen to what he said. Listen
- 3:41Speaker 5: to how faith is at the center of our nation.
- 3:43Speaker 5: He said, just before he passed to Laurence Jones and
- 3:45Speaker 5: Fox and Friends, he thought we were on the precipice
- 3:47Speaker 5: of a Christian revival in this country. And I believe
- 3:49Speaker 5: his assassination spearheaded that. So I would put his infinite
- 3:53Speaker 5: wisdom and all those who have listened, in all the
- 3:54Speaker 5: lives he's changed, and his unfortunate death in that time capsule.
- 3:59Speaker 5: Make Kevin crowded was his goal, and he has done
- 4:01Speaker 5: just that. And there's no more worthy thing to put
- 4:03Speaker 5: into ten thousand. That's beautiful.
- 4:05Speaker 4: I show well. I was going to do a comedic
- 4:08Speaker 4: take on this, but that was really sincere in heartfelt.
- 4:11Speaker 4: I was going to say that, first of all, we
- 4:12Speaker 4: should have put a Coke zero or a diet coken there,
- 4:14Speaker 4: because who who the heck is still drinking a regular coat.
- 4:16Speaker 5: It's a good point.
- 4:17Speaker 4: Also, I would put in just like an iPhone. I mean,
- 4:20Speaker 4: we live on these devices, so I would have put
- 4:23Speaker 4: in a bunch of different gadgets that we just like
- 4:26Speaker 4: you know, use every single day so that in two
- 4:28Speaker 4: hundred years or whatever, they open it they can laugh
- 4:30Speaker 4: at us.
- 4:32Speaker 2: You know what I'm still fascinated about is when you
- 4:34Speaker 2: travel the country.
- 4:34Speaker 6: I'm still amazed that, you know, two hundred and fifty
- 4:37Speaker 6: years in that you still go to the Carolinas and
- 4:39Speaker 6: you go to Alabama and you have different accents. People
- 4:42Speaker 6: have different accents in New England than they do in
- 4:44Speaker 6: Seattle and they do in California, And it's amazing. I
- 4:47Speaker 6: would try to go around the world and get different
- 4:50Speaker 6: accents and different people, and then two hundred and fifty
- 4:53Speaker 6: years from now, see if it's still like that. I
- 4:56Speaker 6: know it was two hundred and fifty years ago, but
- 4:58Speaker 6: it seems unusual that we st you'll have all these
- 5:00Speaker 6: different nu ones that.
- 5:03Speaker 5: That was cool.
- 5:04Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, so this isn't as deep.
- 5:08Speaker 1: I'm so glad that I'm not to go right after
- 5:10Speaker 1: tailing everyone serious?
- 5:13Speaker 4: Okay, did anyone catch that Chad program said that we
- 5:16Speaker 4: put a Coca Cola in the time capsule, right, but
- 5:19Speaker 4: you couldn't put a football because the.
- 5:21Speaker 6: Leather would degrade.
- 5:22Speaker 4: After two hundred and fifty years. So the coca cola
- 5:25Speaker 4: is fine.
- 5:28Speaker 6: Leather football is.
- 5:29Speaker 1: Not because if it we're drinking, it's in glass. I
- 5:32Speaker 1: don't know, or.
- 5:33Speaker 4: Like what.
- 5:35Speaker 3: Is that not?
- 5:35Speaker 4: Like don't know if it's drinkable in two hundred and
- 5:38Speaker 4: fifty years.
- 5:38Speaker 1: I know, but like you.
- 5:39Speaker 6: Would think it would something would happen to it. It
- 5:41Speaker 6: would like combust.
- 5:42Speaker 1: I would put in a bottle of my family's wine
- 5:44Speaker 1: because that will tastes amazing my age age perfectly. Hey everyone,
