                              Script

             Hi! I’m ally George and this podcast is about mother Teresa and her life, Mother Teresa was born on august 27th 1910, he real birth name was Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu. At the age of twelve she had realized what she wanted to do, she wanted to help the less fortunate and poor. At the age of nineteen, she went into the sisters of Lorette to start being a contributing part of the community and helping out the most she can because to even a little makes a big difference to her.

             From 1929 to 1948 Mother Teresa taught at St. Mary's High School in Kolkata, outside the building of the school, it was depressing to her top see how many people were living on the streets, and didn’t have food and money to support themselves. In 1946 she left the school system, to work to help the street “slums” of Kolkata. She devoted the rest of her life to helping people and received several awards including a Nobel peace prize pope john XXIII peace prize. She was recognized around the world.

              After years and years of hard work to help others she passed on September 5th 1997. It is said by many that she is the most inspirational person ever to walk this earth.

Thanks for listening!

Theodore Roosevelt Script

Ally Geogre


Theodore Roosevelt and the River of Doubt

 

It started in 1913 when Theodore Roosevelt lost his presidency and then had the opportunity to go take an expedition through the jungle to speak at when an invitation came to speak in Buenos Aires, Argentina, he went tough several difficulties and tough times trying to find food, they ate monkey and anything else that they could get their hands on.  In an attempt to survive safely, see the animals and appreciate the nature, they fought their way through. In their journey, they encountered bug bites, infectious disease, fevers, and a lot of illnesses. Theodore had gotten a gash across his leg and had got a serious skin infection and ended up with a high fever of 105 degrees.  While battling sickness, they were struggling to get across waterfalls, rapids, and the local Indians didn’t like them so much and was following them. Among their own group of people, there was a murder; Unsure of who did it, they continued on. Toward the ending of their expedition, they were all in pretty bad shape, when they arrived they were relieved that all but one had made it. The main reason Theodore wanted to go on that trip was for the nature, and the animals. In conclusion, Theodore Roosevelt was a naturalist, whose first love was nature. He spent his life being the president, and exploring. He died a while after the expedition from a reoccurring sickness called malaria.
