Time for Second Breakfast on Hashtag Holiday Calendar

A Day Full of Celebrations

September 22nd proved to be quite the special day, marking not just one but four unique celebrations that had the morning crew buzzing with excitement. The date holds particular significance as International Hobbit Day, celebrating the shared birthday of beloved characters Bilbo and Frodo Baggins from Tolkien's classic tales.

Honoring Our Centenarians

The day also honored some remarkable individuals through National Centenarians Day, shining a spotlight on those who've graced our planet for 100 years or more.

Sweet Treats and Dear Diaries

For those with a sweet tooth, National White Chocolate Day provided the perfect excuse to indulge, even though purists might argue about whether white chocolate truly counts as chocolate since it lacks cocoa solids. The crew didn't seem to mind the technicality!

The segment also recognized National Dear Diary Day, which perfectly set up the theme for the morning's pop quiz challenge. Jerry put both the studio crew and viewers at home to the test with two diary-related brain busters that proved trickier than expected.
