Rigby

In the summer of 1921, 14-year-old Philo Farnsworth... was driving a horse-drawn harrow, which was a big tool for breaking up clods of dirt.

As he moved across a potato field on his family's farm in Rigby, Idaho, he had his eureka moment.

At the time, inventors were trying to build televisions using spinning mechanical disks with holes in them, which moved too slowly to create a sharp picture.

Looking at the parallel furrows of dirt in the field, Farnsworth realized an electron beam inside a vacuum tube could scan an image back and forth, row by row, and reassemble it on a screen faster than the human eye could track.

But by means of the partnership agreement, then the competition, and then some quite brutal and cutthroat competition between them, they all sat down on the roads that led them more or less to where they are today.

Colonel Justin Tolman was a teacher at Rigby High School in Rigby, Idaho.

And among the courses that he taught was senior chemistry.

Young Philo T. Farnsworth, who had just moved to the area, was a freshman in high school, but he desperately wanted to take this senior chemistry course.

One day, Tolman was walking down the hall, and he hears Farnsworth's voice coming from a study hall.

And he expects to hear Farnsworth helping his fellow students with their chemistry assignment.

Instead, he was expounding on Einstein's theory of relativity, which was fairly new, and certainly would not have been on the curriculum of the Rigby High School school system at that time.

what was miraculous about it what tolman so responded to was that farnsworth's fellow students were hanging on every word there was something about this kid when he started talking about his ideas people listened he just caught fire and he managed to convey the ideas in a thrilling dynamic and compelling way from the moment that farnsworth had the idea of electronic television transmission.

Also, number 14, the guard, 6'0 junior from Rigby, Idaho, is Cambry Taylor.

And at center... 6'3 sophomore from Lagos, Nigeria.

Number three, Mbola Youssef.

They were stopping at the cities and towns.

Where did this 21-year-old TV builder live? Just coming up with the idea of one of the most incredible technological advances ever in the middle of a town called Rigby in Jefferson County, Idaho, where we read where most farms in Rigby, Idaho did not have electricity.

Well, just like we stated, rural electrification did not reach most Idaho farms until the late 1930s, 1940s.

And this is exactly why the Rural Electrification Act was installed in 1936.

Chad continually reached out to him three or four times over the year to keep asking him to help with the book.

Warwick says he kept saying no. 1.55 p.m. Warwick says he first met Chad in 2015 in Rigby, Idaho, at a meeting to talk about the darkness of this world.

1.56 p.m. Warwick did not know most of the people at the meeting, but he remembers Chad, John Miller, Larry Hilton, Tom Harrison, Bob Walker, and Hector Sosa being there.

1.57 p.m. Chad asked Warwick to leave the meeting with him to go to his home, but Warwick didn't want to.

Um, in the Philippines, um, maybe one or two, like, in, uh, in Angeles or in San Pedro, um, City.

Um, other ones like, um, I don't know, maybe Rigby, Idaho.

[laughs]

Yeah, yeah.

Yes, and, and so, uh, it'll be accessible that way.

Also, if you live in the Upper Valley, Idaho Falls, Rigby, Shelley, uh, and, and a little bit even north of that, you'll be able to pick it up on 105.1 FM, which right now is, is a music format.

But beginning October 26th, it will switch over to News Talk 2, and you'll be able to catch all the programming that we've just, um, outlined for you.

Laid out for you, yes.

We're bringing Jesse Kelly into the market in the evenings, and Michael Berry, uh, later at night from 10:00 to midnight, and there's an overnight show called On the Other Side of Midnight that is kinda paranormal related.

So there's still more details to reveal and, and unfold, but that's what we're launching, uh, News Talk 2.

You can catch it at 105.1 FM in the Idaho Falls, Shelley, Rigby, uh, area, and also on HD channel 2.

If you have a, a HD radio either in home, probably more likely in your car, uh, make sure you activate your HD and, uh, you can hear all of that on HD 2 at, at News Talk 107.9, so.

Certainly there's a lot of, like, problematic history in the very annoying online liberal sense of the, of the phrase.

Um, but signs that say things like, "You loot, I shoot." Brother, who is looting your house? You are in r- you are outside Rigby, Idaho.

Ain't no looters.

There's no, no Antifa paratroopers dropping out of the sky to steal your KitchenAid mixer.
