Jan 19th: Epic Delivery Routes

DayStrider: Tales from a Time Traveler

When you think of delivery routes - you probably think of news papers. But that’s not epic! January 19th has epic deliveries that you won’t want to miss!

• Like the time a guy named Chickie delivered Pabst Blue Ribbon beers to his buddies in a war zone!
• Or the time the biggest route ever raced on a bike was invented - because of scandal and rivalries.
• How ‘bout the routes taken by zeppelin bombers that took over the British skies during World War 1?

If it's a special day for you or for someone you care about, why not learn a little more about today by listening to some fun, engaging tales of the past. You’ll find yourself a little smarter and have some great stories you can tell in those awkward silent moments at the next baby shower you attend. If you need some great gift ideas, we have those too (along with links to where you can find them on Amazon).

Learn more about today’s events here (these links worked in early-2025 - not sure how long the links will be available):

• Link to the Apple TV movie made about the Greatest Beer Run Ever
• Link to the Steve Smith’s guide page and blog post about zeppelin raids

Gift ideas for folks who celebrate January 19th:

• Immerse yourself into the Greatest Beer Run books and movies - and you gotta check out these Pabst Blue Ribbon crew socks
• There are books and decor featuring the Tour de France - but the winner is this yellow cycling jersey!
• Books about the zeppelin bombings - or about the towns bombed are nice - but so is a desktop zeppelin model.
• Posters & movies of today’s famous folks: Dolly Parton, Shawn Johnson, Paula Deen and Edgar Allen Poe
• Similarly, there are fun gift options to celebrate today’s holidays: Popcorn Day is fun, Brew a Potion Day

Text me your favorite time travel movie!!!
