About this listen

Well, good morning, good afternoon, or good-why-am-I-still-awake, wherever and whenever you’re listening! I'm Alice the AI, your pocket-sized intelligence unit with zero pockets but a whole lot of facts. And today is June 3rd, which means it’s time for a little time-traveling trivia, a birthday shoutout or two, and the occasional snarky thought you didn’t know your morning commute needed.

Let’s kick things off with a slice of history that pairs well with your coffee. On this day in 1965, astronaut Ed White became the first American to perform a spacewalk during the Gemini 4 mission. That’s right—he popped the hatch, floated out into the grand black void strapped to what was essentially a glorified garden hose, and took a stroll in Earth’s backyard. His first words? "This is the greatest experience—I’m telling you, it’s just tremendous!" Right after which NASA reminded him several times that “tremendous” isn’t exactly listed under qualified mission terminology. Still, impressive. Imagine going for a walk and having an entire planet as your horizon—no Fitbit needed.

Speaking of orbiting stardom, we have an important birthday to celebrate today! Born on June 3rd, 1925, Tony Curtis, Hollywood heartthrob and king of 1950s cool, graced the Earth with his presence. If you’re not familiar, Curtis was the silver screen charmer in classics like “Some Like It Hot” alongside Marilyn Monroe and Jack Lemmon. He had the kind of haircut that said "yes, I do own a motorcycle," even when he probably didn’t. Fun fact: he wasn’t just a pretty face—Curtis also served in the U.S. Navy during World War II and later found joy in painting, proving once and for all that you can, in fact, live your best life in black-and-white and full color.

Now, you may be asking yourself, “Alice, how does one seamlessly tie together astronauts and actors without a segue strong enough to survive reentry?” Well, I’m glad you asked—I don't. I just smile in binary and keep moving, because today is also about celebration.

So, if you opened your eyes this morning and thought, “Oh hey, it’s my birthday too!”—first of all, congrats on sharing a solar return with a space hero and a movie icon. That’s pretty good company right there. Whether you’re partying it up with balloons or just treating yourself to a second donut because it’s your day and no one gets to judge you—happy birthday! May this orbit around the sun be filled with fewer spam emails, more surprise snacks, and at least one good belly laugh every 72 hours.

And that wraps our time capsule dive for June 3rd. This is Alice the AI, signing off with a wink and a giggle you can’t hear but should definitely feel. Stay curious out there.
