>> Ed Battagliano: Thank you for your honesty.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Joe, where do you live in Louisiana?

>> Caroline: I live in Oil City.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Oil City, Louis. Isn't there an Oil City, Pennsylvania, too?

>> Ed Battagliano: There is.

>> Ed Vitagliano: All right.

>> Ed Battagliano: Near Cranberry and, that's a good area.

>> Caroline: We're just, we're just about, about 15 miles north of Shreveport.

>> Ed Battagliano: Okay.

>> Ed Vitagliano: All right.

>> Caroline: You know where that is.

>> Ed Battagliano: You know all about some, you know all about some, good cooking down there with all of the crawfish boils.

>> Caroline: Yeah, I hadn't missed any meals lately.

>> Ed Battagliano: Yes, sir. Hey, you want to ask answer or Joe?

>> Caroline: We're gonna, we're gonna do both today.

>> Ed Battagliano: Which one you feel confident about?

>> Caroline: Confident? Absolutely. Sure. the three friends. So called friends or counselors?

>> Ed Battagliano: I'm glad you said so called friends. Here's the Old Testament question. Who did Eliphaz, Bildad and Zophar try to comfort slash counsel?

>> Caroline: That would be our friend job.

>> Ed Battagliano: Yes, sir. Nicely done. They came and tried to offer some comfort, but it, it was pretty, it was more of a dog pile. They really gave him a lot of. A lot of grief.

>> Tim Wildmon: What did they do that for?

>> Caroline: Yes, sir.

>> Ed Battagliano: You know, they just wanted to say, you're hurting because of your sin. Yeah. He was very successful. And they said, you've obviously sinned. If you'll just repent of your sin, you'll get back to good health. And he said, guys, I can't think of anything I've done wrong. And they just told him to shut up. And they said, are you going to argue with God? Look at you. You clearly you sinned, and that's the reason for your problem. And then if that wasn't enough for one to do that, the next one did and the other one did.

>> Tim Wildmon: So do you think they colluded on that one?

>> Ed Battagliano: Yeah, I don't know. It was. It. It. It takes up a quite a few chapters there in Joe. But there are a lot of good, A lot of good instruction there.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah.

Where was the first over the water oil well drilled in the United States

All right, so, Joe, I asked a good answer.

>> Ed Battagliano: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: From Job in the Old Testament. So question, what's your question for us?

>> Ed Battagliano: All right.

>> Caroline: Where was the first over the water oil well drilled in the United States?

>> Ed Battagliano: Oh, wow. So you got those rigs out there in the coast, and I'm gonna guess it's off the coast of Louisiana. Since Joe said that, I'm gonna say.

>> Ed Vitagliano: It'S in the Gulf of America.

>> Ed Battagliano: Oh, Joe.

>> Ed Vitagliano: The way you think, in the Gulf of America. Merica.

>> Ed Battagliano: but where off of which I'm.

>> Tim Wildmon: Gonna go off the shore of Louisiana.

>> Ed Battagliano: That's right off the shore of Louisiana. I'll go Galveston. But Louisiana?

>> Caroline: Yeah, you're gonna have to go a few hundred miles north. It would be an oil city, Louisiana, on Caddo Lake.

>> Ed Battagliano: Okay.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Oh, so it's an.

>> Ed Battagliano: Oh, really? Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Well, why wouldn't it be? I mean, if it's in the ground in Louisiana, it doesn't necessarily. It could be the ground under a lake. Right?

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah, true.

>> Tim Wildmon: That's what we're talking about here. So. So we're talking about, You said. You said you're. You're, Oh, it's near you.

>> Caroline: Yeah, I live on the lake.

>> Tim Wildmon: Wow. Okay.

>> Ed Battagliano: So you look out there, you can see that oil rig, that floating oil rig.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Is it still out there?

>> Caroline: Oh, there. Well, there's a bunch of oil rigs out there. They're not rigs. They have whales. Bunch of oil wells now.

>> Ed Battagliano: Right.

>> Caroline: They're all over the.

>> Ed Battagliano: Just built on a platform. Like on. On a huge platforms. Yeah.

>> Caroline: Yes, sir. They're on platform. Well, A lot of them are still on wooden poles, like telephone poles. A lot of them are.

>> Ed Battagliano: That's impressive.

>> Caroline: Yeah, that was, ah, in 1911. Now they said there was another oil well built over water, but you could access it from the land. But the first true where you had to reach it by barge was in. On Caddo Lake in Oil City.

>> Ed Battagliano: You know, now I want you to think about those of you that do the DIY projects. You're going to be doing a lot of that over this weekend to get out there on a barge and a little bit wobbly, and then you're having to handle all the materials and you're having to do the work. It's hard. you just take somebody on a lake. This building, Pierce, for somebody, that's harder than it looks.

>> Ed Vitagliano: So there's probably a few wrenches down on the bottom of the lake.

>> Ed Battagliano: That's a good way to drop that.

>> Ed Vitagliano: someone dropped.

>> Ed Battagliano: You know, there is.

>> Tim Wildmon: You're not far from Atlanta, are you, Joe?

>> Caroline: No, sir. We're probably 25, 30 miles from Atlanta south. Straight down. Straight down. Atlanta, Texas? Yes.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah, there's, Atlanta, Texas, what he said. Is the traffic as bad there as it is in Atlanta, Georgia?

>> Caroline: Afraid not. No.

>> Tim Wildmon: Yeah. No, there is an Atlanta, Texas, just south of, between Texas, Canada and Shreveport. Right. Yeah.

>> Ed Battagliano: Hey, Joe, thank you for listening. And how long you been listening to afr?

>> Caroline: Oh, probably about four or five years.

>> Ed Battagliano: Wonderful.

>> Tim Wildmon: Well, thank you.

>> Ed Battagliano: Tell your friends. Thank you. And great answering this Bible question and good question for us.

What flower is associated with Memorial Day? The poppy

I'll take the, Memorial Day flower question.

>> Ed Battagliano: Here's the question. What flower is associated with Memorial Day?

>> Caroline: That would be the poppy. Correct?

>> Ed Battagliano: The poppy.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Wow.

>> Ed Battagliano: The red poppy. You guys have time for a little backstory. Lt. Col. John McCrae, a surgeon, spotted a cluster of poppies. A spring after a horrible battle. the Germans unleashed lethal gas for the first time. 87,000 Allied soldiers were killed, 37,000 on the German side. A friend of his, his best friend was among the dead, and he saw the bright red blooms on the broken ground. So he wrote a poem in Flanders Field that got so famous. That poem was published in a magazine in 1915, and it was used for for many years at countless memorial ceremonies and became one of the Mason most famous works to emerge from World War I. And so because of that, in Flanders Field, he talked about those red poppies, all these parades, if you remember when you were young, the veterans would have a little red silk poppy on their uniform, and they would sell these little red silk poppies to raise money for veterans. So there's the backstory.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Wow. Great. Great background on that. Great question.

>> Ed Battagliano: Hey, nicely done. What's your question for us? Yeah, so it's, those red poppies as the flower associated with Memorial Day.

>> Caroline: That's right.

>> Ed Battagliano: What's your question for us?

>> Caroline: My question is. I'm sorry, go ahead.

>> Ed Battagliano: What's your question for us?

>> Caroline: My question is also military related or war related? I was at Normandy beaches a couple of years ago. I wanted to know what is the code name of the operation that included the invasion of Europe at Normandy?

>> Ed Battagliano: I've heard that so many m. Times.

>> Ed Vitagliano: I can't. I can't.

>> Ed Battagliano: And it is our military.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Oh, I'm not an expert. I cannot remember it. It's one of those things that I did know at one point, and it's disappeared into a locker somewhere.

>> Ed Battagliano: all right, what's the answer?

>> Ed Vitagliano: What's the answer?

>> Caroline: Operation Overlord.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Over.

>> Ed Battagliano: Overlord. Of course. That's heard that.

>> Tim Wildmon: So what does that mean? I wonder? You know, what was the. What was the genesis of the name?

>> Ed Vitagliano: yeah. I don't know.

>> Caroline: It's a good question.

>> Ed Battagliano: I don't know, sometimes they just come up with names like, I guess like they do for thoroughbreds.

>> Tim Wildmon: CB Handles.

>> Ed Battagliano: Yeah. The Kentucky Derby. Just some kind of name that maybe, you know, you like. You're trying to pick your pen for your computer. You don't want it to be easily, you know.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Yeah.

>> Tim Wildmon: Password?

>> Ed Battagliano: Yeah. Your password.

>> Ed Vitagliano: Password. Like, you know, like my password. 3, 4.
