I
I HAVE
I HAVE ABSOLUTELY LOVED GLOBES.
GLOBES.
GLOBES. I
GLOBES. I HAVE HAD THEM FOREVER.
IT IS GREAT WHEN YOU
HAVE KIDS OR GRANDKIDS
BECAUSE YOU YOU CAN SHOW
THEM DIFFERENT PARTS OF
THE WORLD BUT THIS ONE
DOES MORE BECAUSE MOST
GLOBES ARE JUST DAYTIME
GLOBES.
GLOBES.
GLOBES. YOU LOOK AT THE
DIFFERENT LINES AND
EQUATOR AND PRIME
MERIDIAN AND DIFFERENT
THINGS ON THE GLOBE,
THIS ACTUALLY COMES TO
LIFE AT NIGHT.
IT IS ONE OF THE ITEMS
THAT WE HAVE IN THIS
SHOW, I AM GOING TO HANG
OUT WITH JOE.
HOW WAS THE PIE?
IT WAS SUCH GREAT APPLE
PIE.>> Guest: A LOT OF
APPLE ORCHARDS IN NEW
ENGLAND, AND THEY LOVE
PIE.>> Host: WE SHOULD
BE BORN AS FARMERS.
WE CAN BE IN A HALLMARK
MOVIE.
MOVIE.
MOVIE. I
MOVIE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M
TALKING ABOUT.
TALKING ABOUT. IT'S ALL THAT SUGAR.
SO, I THINK I HAD ON --
I THINK I HIT ON
EVERYTHING, WE ALL LOVE
GLOBES, AND WHEN KIDS
ARE LITTLE YOU GET A
GLOBE BECAUSE KIDS ARE
FASCINATED BY THEM.
HERE IS THE WORLD, AND
THE CONTINENTS AND IT IS
A GREAT LESSON TO LEARN.
AND THEY CAN BE
EXPENSIVE, THESE
EXPENSIVE, THESE BEAUTIFUL GLOBES.
BEAUTIFUL GLOBES. OURS IS PERFECTLY PRICE,
$29.95, AND YOU CAN SEE
ALL OF THE CONTINENTS
BUT WHEN YOU TURN THE
LIGHTS DOWN, JOE, WHAT
HAPPENS?>> Guest: THE
LIGHT ON THE INSIDE
COMES OUT AND BLEW GLOBE
WAS DESIGNED TO SHOW YOU
WHERE THE POPULATION OF
THE EARTH IS.
WHEN YOU TURN OUT THE
LIGHTS, YOU ROTATE
AROUND THE EARTH, FROM A
SATELLITE, AND YOU CAN
SEE THE TOP-DOWN VIEW,
THINGS LIGHT UP.
YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE
POPULATION IS IN NEW
YORK, ACROSS THE
COUNTRY, ACROSS THE
WORLD, AND THE IDEA IS
THAT THIS IS A S.T.E.M.
TOY.
TOY.
TOY. THIS
TOY. THIS MAY BE A NEW CONCEPT
, MY CHILD IS IN MIDDLE
SCHOOL, THIS IS ALL THEY
TALK ABOUT IS, AND
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M. IS SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,
ENGINEERING AND MATH.
IT IS A NEW WAY OF
EDUCATING KIDS TO TEACH
THEM ABOUT THE
POPULATION AND
POPULATION AND TECHNOLOGY AND HOW TO
CREATE A BETTER
ENVIRONMENT FOR THE REST
OF THE WORLD.
INSTEAD OF HAVING ONE
CONCEPT, THEY TEACH
MULTIPLE CONCEPTS WITH
THE SAME TOY.
THIS IS A S.T.E.M.
TOY.
TOY.
TOY. WE
TOY. WE ARE TEACHING ABOUT
THE GLOBE AND THE
COUNTRIES AND IT IS BIG
AND EASY TO SEE.
THAT ONLY THE COUNTRIES,
BUT THE MORE POPULAR
CITIES, SO WHEN YOU
START TO WORK YOUR WAY
ACROSS, WHAT HAPPENS IS,
THE LIGHTS GO DOWN, LOS
ANGELES, THE WEST COAST
LIGHTS UP.
LIGHTS UP. YOU SEE THE EAST COAST,
AND NOW WE ARE IN THE
PACIFIC OCEAN, BUT IT
LOOKS LIKE THERE IS ASIA,
AND YOU CAN SEE THE
LIGHTS THAT COME THROUGH.
IT IS LIKE YOU ARE IN A
SPACE STATION.>> Host:
WHEN YOU GET THIS HOME,
THAT WILL BE MUCH
BRIGHTER, BUT IN STUDIO
LIGHTS, WITH A LOT OF
FILTERS YOU DON'T SEE AS
MUCH.
MUCH.
MUCH. THAT IS HOW IT IS IN THE
STUDIO.
STUDIO.
STUDIO. BUT WHEN YOU TURN OUT
THE LIGHTS IT HAS A GLOW.
IT REMINDS ME OF BEING
IN AN AIRPLANE AND
FLYING OVER PART OF THE
U.S. AND YOU LOOK DOWN
AND YOU SEE THE GLOWING
LIGHTS.
LIGHTS.
LIGHTS. IT IS SURREAL.>> Guest:
AND IT IS NOT JUST ONE
LIGHT.
LIGHT.
LIGHT. >>
LIGHT. >> Host: IT IS THE MOST
POPULATED AREAS.>> Guest:
NEW YORK CITY WOULD BE A
VERY BRIGHT SECTION AND
ACROSS THE REST OF THE
COUNTRY IT WOULD BE NOT
AS BRIGHT AND THEN YOU
GET TO THE WEST COAST
AND IT IS BRIGHTER.
YOUR TEACHING OUR KIDS
MORE THAN JUST WHERE
THEY LIVE, BUT ABOUT THE
REST OF THE WORLD.
THERE ARE ABOUT 1
BILLION PEOPLE IN THE
U.S., ONLY 300 MILLION
LIVE IN THE U.S. YOU CAN
SEE THE MORE POPULAR
PATIENTS -- PLACES
AROUND THE WORLD.
THAT IS THE THING ABOUT
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M. BRINGING THE WORLD
TOGETHER.
TOGETHER.
TOGETHER. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,
SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, MATH, THEY
ARE TEACHING IT IN THE
SCHOOLS, AND THIS IS THE
WAY THAT OUR KIDS WILL
BE LEARNING.
BE LEARNING. AND THE OTHER GREAT
THING IS IT IS AN EASY
THING.
THING.
THING. YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY
ABOUT PUSHING BUTTONS,
ON THE BOTTOM, IT USES
BATTERIES, AA BATTERIES
TO GET STARTED, YOU JUST
PUT IN THE BOTTOM.
IT WORKS ON DIRECT
POWER, AS WELL, AND YOU
HAVE ONE SWITCH.
YOU DON'T NEED TO HAVE
THE LIGHT ON.
YOU CAN KEEP IT OFF, BUT
THEN IF YOU PUT IT ON
THERE IS A SENSOR, AND
AS THE SUN STARTS TO SET
AT HOME, THE LIGHT WILL
COME ON.
COME ON.
COME ON. THEN YOU WALK IN THE
ROOM, AND AUTOMATICALLY,
THE GLOBE WILL LIGHT UP.
THERE IS AMERICA.
THERE IS TAMPA, I CAN
SEE US THERE.
>> Host: THERE IS MY
HOUSE, RIGHT THERE.
THAT'S MY HOUSE.
>> Guest: AS YOU WALK IN
THE ROOM, THE GLOBE IS
NOW GOING TO BE
ILLUMINATED AND NOT JUST
ONE PART, THE ENTIRE
WORLD.
WORLD.
WORLD. IT
WORLD. IT IS COOL TO SEE, YOU
DIDN'T REALIZE WHAT PART
OF AUSTRALIA DO PEOPLE
LIVE IN?
LIVE IN?
LIVE IN? WHAT PARTS ARE POPULATED?
>> Host: YOU DON'T SEE
POPULATION DENSITIES
POPULATION DENSITIES DURING THE DAY BUT AT
NIGHT IT IS LIKE
EVERYBODY TURNS THE
LIGHTS ON.
LIGHTS ON. >> Guest: IT IS SO COOL
TO SEE.
TO SEE.
TO SEE. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A
NIGHTTIME SATELLITE SHOT
ON THE EARTH?
SUCH A NICE CONCEPT AND
AN EDUCATIONAL PIECE.
EVERYONE CAN USE A
GLOBE, THIS IS HIGH
QUALITY, WE HAVE HAD MANY
GLOBES IN MY HOUSE THAT
ARE BUSTED IN ONE WEEK.
THIS IS SOLID AND YOU
WILL HAVE IT FOR THE
ENTIRE EDUCATION PERIOD
OF THE KIDS.
IT IS ALSO BROUGHT TO
YOU BY THE DISCOVERY
CHANNEL.
CHANNEL.
CHANNEL. THEY WANTED SOMETHING
THAT WOULD ENGAGE
AMERICANS AND THE
CONCEPT OF
CONCEPT OF GLOBALIZATION.
GLOBALIZATION. WHEN YOU LEARN ABOUT
MORE OF THE REST OF THE
WORLD, YOU DEVELOP
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M. TOYS AND IDEAS.
>> Host: A GLOBE IS A
GREAT TEACHING TOOL TO
HAVE AT HOME.
WHEN DANNY WAS LITTLE
AND AROUND THE TIME HE
WAS GOING TO SCHOOL,
AFTER DAYCARE AND STUFF
I GOT A GLOBE AND HE WAS
FASCINATED BY IT BECAUSE
LITTLE KIDS, THAT IS ONE
OF THE FIRST THINGS THEY
UNDERSTAND, THEY ARE
TACTILE AND THE LIKE TO
TOUCH AND MOVE THINGS.
THEY LIKE TO LOOK AND
DISCOVER AND THERE IS A
LOT OF COLOR ON THIS.
THEY CAN CHECK OUT ALL
THE DIFFERENT AREAS OF
THE WORLD.
THE WORLD. NOT ONLY THAT, HOW MANY
TIMES DOES SOMEONE SAY,
LET ME SAY TO JOE, SHOW
ME WHERE SYRIA IS ON
THIS GLOBE?
THIS GLOBE? AND JOE MIGHT SAY, SYRIA?
BUT THE NICE THING IS HE
COULD SAY, WELL, GUY, AS
THEY GO AROUND THE
GLOBE, AS HE IS TRYING
TO FIND IT OVER HERE ON
THE MAP, HE CAN SEE IT
IS RIGHT HERE.
IT IS RIGHT IN THIS
REGION, RIGHT HERE, JOE,
THIS REGION OF THE
GLOBE.
GLOBE.
GLOBE. WE
GLOBE. WE NEED TO LOOK FOR THE
LIGHT.
LIGHT.
LIGHT. BUT HONESTLY, THERE'S
SAUDI ARABIA, LOOK, JOE,
THERE'S CHAD.
THERE'S CHAD. THERE'S CHAD.
THERE'S CHAD. HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO
CHAD?>> Guest: I HAVE
NEVER BEEN TO CHAD.
I HAVE BEEN TO EUROPE.>>
Host: ALL OF THESE
DIFFERENT PLACES.>>
DIFFERENT PLACES.>> Guest: THERE IS MOROCCO.
>> Host: YOU REALLY NEED
A GLOBE, BECAUSE WHO
KNOWS WHERE ALL OF THESE
LITTLE PIECES ARE.
BELARUS.
BELARUS.
BELARUS. IT'S ALL PIECED OUT NOW.
>> Guest: SO MUCH LIGHT
OFF OF EUROPE AND THEN
THE LIGHT TRAVELS
THROUGH RUSSIA.
THROUGH RUSSIA. A GREAT CONCEPT BECAUSE
NOW YOU DON'T JUST SEE
WHAT THE EARTH LIKES --
LOOKS LIKE DURING THE
DAYTIME, WHEN THE LIGHTS
GO DOWN, YOU SEE WHAT
THE WORLD IS UP TO AT
NIGHT.
NIGHT.
NIGHT. IT
NIGHT. IT IS COOL TO SEE, WHEN
YOU TURN THE LIGHTS
DOWN, IT LIGHTS UP THE
GLOBE, BUT ONLY WHERE
PEOPLE LIVE.
PEOPLE LIVE. SO, YOU SEE PARTS OF
RUSSIA, AND PARTS ARE
DARK.
DARK.
DARK. AND
DARK. AND YOU SEE THE MORE
POPULATED AREAS.
POPULATED AREAS. A GREAT CONCEPT AND BY
THE WAY, THIS IS
AUTOMATIC.
AUTOMATIC. YOU CAN JUST LEAVE IT
ON, AND WHEN THE SUN
SETS AND THE LIGHTS GO
DOWN IN YOUR HOUSE, THE
GLOBE WILL LIGHT UP
AUTOMATICALLY.
AUTOMATICALLY. IT IS ALMOST LIKE A
NIGHTLIGHT.
NIGHTLIGHT. MY SON HAD THIS IN HIS
ROOM FOR THE LAST WEEK
AND HE LOVES IT.
IT IS NOW HIS
NIGHTLIGHT.
NIGHTLIGHT. IT ILLUMINATES
IT ILLUMINATES EVERYTHING.
EVERYTHING. IT ALSO BECOMES
EDUCATIONAL BECAUSE IT
IS NICE TO HAVE THE GLOBE
TO REFERENCE FOR
SCHOOLWORK, AND SEE IT
AT NIGHT, A COOL CONCEPT.
>> Host: IF YOU ARE A
GRANDPARENT OR MOM OR
DAD OR WHATEVER YOU ARE,
UNCLE, YOU HAVE KIDS WHO
ARE SIX YEARS OLD, IT IS
A GREAT GIFT, EVEN AS A
NIGHTLIGHT.
NIGHTLIGHT. THEY CAN SEE IT IN BED.
THAT IS IDEAL.
BUT PURELY, AS AN
EDUCATIONAL TOOL, THIS
IS AWESOME.
IS AWESOME. KIDS GO TO SCHOOL AND
NEED TO KNOW THINGS FOR
PROJECTS, YOU CAN PICK
THINGS TO STUDY ABOUT OR
LEARN TO TRAVEL THE
WORLD, AND I THINK A
GLOBE IS A THING THAT
ONCE YOU GET IT, YOU
KEEP IT FOREVER.
YOU NEVER OUTGROW THIS.
EVEN GROWN-UPS WILL NOT
KNOW WHERE SOMETHING IS
SOMETIMES, RIGHT?
SOMETIMES, RIGHT? WE WERE FOOLING AROUND
WITH IT, AND THEN, TURN
IT OFF, AT NIGHT, I
GUESS THAT IS THE
EQUATOR IN THE MIDDLE,
AND YOU SEE NEW YORK
CITY, --
CITY, --
CITY, -- >> Guest: COMING INTO
EUROPE.>> Host: THEY DID
THIS HOW IT IS.>> Guest:
THEY TOOK SHOTS FROM
OUTER SPACE, SATELLITE
SHOTS, AND MIMICS THE
LIGHT.
LIGHT.
LIGHT. YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE,
OVERHEAR, BOMBAY, HONG
KONG, TOKYO, IT IS
ILLUMINATED BECAUSE IT
IS POPULATED.
IS POPULATED. THEN YOU GO DOWN TO
AUSTRALIA AND THE AREA
IS MASSIVE BUT ONLY A
FEW ARE LIT UP.
HAWAII WILL BE LIT UP.
AS YOU GO ACROSS
AMERICA, ALL OF A SUDDEN
YOU SEE THE WEST COAST
IS FILLED UP WITH LIGHT.
IN THE MIDDLE, NOT AS
MUCH LIGHT, AND IT
TEACHES YOUR KIDS WHERE
THE POPULATION IS.
IT GOES BACK DOWN TO THE
CORE OF WHAT THIS TOY
WAS DESIGNED FOR.
IT WAS DESIGNED FOR
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M. LEARNING.
LEARNING.
LEARNING. SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY,
SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, MATHEMATICS.
ENGINEERING, MATHEMATICS. IT IS ABOUT EDUCATION
AND BRINGING EVERYBODY
TOGETHER.
TOGETHER.
TOGETHER. NOT JUST THINKING ABOUT
ONE ITEM, IT IS A BROAD
CONCEPT THAT THEY ARE
TEACHING OUR KIDS.
THIS IS AN OFFICIAL
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M. TOY.
TOY.
TOY. THIS
TOY. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME
WE HAVE EVER HAD IT.
IT TURNS ON IT NIGHT AND
LIGHTS UP, SUCH A COOL
CONCEPT.
CONCEPT.
CONCEPT. >> Host: HONESTLY, EVEN
AS A GROWN-UP, YOU CAN
STARE AT THIS FOREVER.
I THINK WHAT IS NEAT
ABOUT IT, TOO, WE DON'T
OFTEN GET TO SEE THE
WORLD UP CLOSE LIKE THIS
OFTEN GET TO SEE THE WORLD UP CLOSE LIKE THISrIN
YOU THINK THAT THINGS
ARE SO FAR AWAY BUT WHEN
YOU LOOK AT A GLOBE AND
YOU REALIZE HOW MOST
THINGS ARE ALMOST
CONNECTED, DEPENDING ON
HOW YOU LOOK AT IT, IT
IS AMAZING, WHEN YOU
LOOK AT IT LIKE THAT.
YOU THINK IT IS THIS
BIG, GIANT THING BUT
PEOPLE ARE NOT THAT FAR
AWAY WHEN YOU LOOK AT
SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
I THINK IT GIVES YOU A
GREAT APPRECIATION FOR
HOW MUCH WATER THERE IS
ON THE PLANET.
>> Guest: YES.>> Host:
THERE IS A LOT OF WATER
OUT THERE.
OUT THERE. LOOK AT THAT.
WE ARE WATER PEOPLE, JOE.
WE ARE MOSTLY WATER.
I'M PRETTY SURE 80% OR
