Other times Modesto came up

1. Yeah, so this fact was sent to me by at shutter underscore butter on Twitter. It's an amazing fact. Thank you, shutter underscore butter. So Modesto is in California. It is a town that has had a bit of fame via the fact that it's the birthplace of George Lucas. Back in the day, he made a very famous movie called American Graffiti.

3. The coldest temperature ever outside of Antarctica was measured in Siberia, but no one knows if that's right because the thermometer broke due to the cold. It is time for our final fact of the show. That is my fact. My fact this week is that when financier William C. Ralston modestly refused to allow a town to be named after him, the town instead called itself Modesto. Modesto or Modesto? Modesto. Modesto.
