#bayofpigs #ushistory #apush

For the few Americans who know about what we now call the Bay of Pigs Invasion, the only thing they know about it was that it was a failure. In this video, I'm going to tell you WHY it was a failure, and you better just, like, listen, because if you don’t I will fail you.

The Bay of Pigs Invasion, as most folks call it now, was an embarrassing defeat for Kennedy and the United States. It showed the CIA was in over their heads. They got too cocky and miscalculated. And the agency must have been embarrassed, too, as it classified lots of information that made it look bad.


The invasion also ended up being quite a political victory for Castro and his authoritarian government. It turned not only most Cubans, but most LATIN AMERICANS against the American government, and only made Castro more popular.

Still, despite feeling abandoned by the American government, many of the Cuban exiles who participated in the Bay of Pigs Invasion remained steadfastly loyal to the United States in the following years. Some went on to become officers in the military. Some even served in the Vietnam War. Today, here in the United States we honor members of Brigade 2506 as heroes who tried to overthrow a dictator and free their home country. And what an honor it was to visit the Brigade 2506 Museum and Library in Miami. And good news…it’s getting a brand new building soon! Exciting stuff.

And it was an even GREATER honor to have the privilege of speaking with an actual Bay of Pigs Invasion VETERAN. Dr. Eduardo Zayas-Bazán, thank you for sharing your story with us.

What’s Next for Immersive Storytelling? | Mark Grimmer | TED

"New possibilities for storytelling are emerging faster than at any other time in history," says film producer Mark Grimmer. With an immersive approach to art exhibitions, he shares several multidisciplinary projects — including a kaleidoscopic exhibit of David Bowie's world-changing career and a luminous, interactive show that brings visitors inside the paintings of David Hockney — and shows what's possible when ideas collide. (Recorded at TED2024 on April 19, 2024)

“Every business idea is taken” is a bullsh*t excuse. Find ANY proven idea… and just do it different.


Do polls actually predict election results?

Yes. I mean...no.

This video might possibly drive you crazy. I know it drove me crazy researching it.

Hey man, got any of that SAWEET polling data? I need me some more delicious polling data. GIVE IT TO ME.

Wait a second, does polling actually predict election results?

Most of the time, yes. Actually. But while polls may give us a GENERAL picture of who will win, they are much less accurate predicting by how much. For example, they generally predicted Joe Biden would win the 2020 presidential election, but they were about 4 percentage points off.

It’s not surprising that polls wouldn’t be completely accurate because any time we conduct polls there’s a margin of error, the range of values below and above a sample statistic to let us know how much a poll could be wrong. Since it’s nearly impossible to poll EVERY SINGLE VOTER before an election, EVERY poll has a sampling error. But there are also non-sampling errors because stuff just goes wrong, man. (list them on screen)

So what does that mean for the upcoming 2024 election? Well, based on polls, it could be extremely close or a landslide victory for Trump or Harris. Oh no.
