DR. LEO COOL.

AS YOU CAN SEE, I JUST GOT SOME MAIL DELIVERED.

I LOVE GETTING MAIL, DON'T YOU?

IT'S SO EXCITING BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GONNA GET.

LOOK!

HERE'S A LETTER FROM ONE OF MY VIEWERS.

AW, IT'S THE LETTER C. MY FAVORITE.

C. FOR MY LAST NAME, COOL.

SEE, I TOLD YOU I LOVE GETTING MAIL.

SPEAKING OF MAIL, THAT HAPPENS TO BE TODAY'S TOPIC.

WELCOME TO DR.

COOL'S FUN SCHOOL!

[ FANFARE ] SO BEFORE TEXTING, EMAILING, AND CALLING PEOPLE, MAIL WAS THE NUMBER ONE WAY TO COMMUNICATE WITH OTHERS.

NOW, THE NATIONAL MAIL SYSTEM WAS CREATED BY THE SECOND CONSTITUTIONAL CONGRESS IN 1775.

FIRST POSTMASTER GENERAL WAS BENJAMIN FRANKLIN.

EVER HEARD OF HIM?

OLD BEN WAS AN EXTREMELY SMART MAN, INVENTOR, STATESMAN, DIPLOMAT, AND HIS FACE IS ON THE $100 BILL!

SEE?

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE BENJAMIN.

NOW, THE POSTAGE STAMP WAS CREATED IN 1847.

WITH THIS STAMP, YOU COULD SEND ANY LETTER FROM EAST COAST TO THE WEST FOR ONE PRICE.

NOW, DO YOU KNOW IN THE COUNTRY OF BELGIUM, THEY HAD A STAMP THAT SMELLED AND TASTED LIKE CHOCOLATE?

I BET YOU NOBODY COMPLAINED ABOUT LICKING THOSE STAMPS.

BACK IN THE DAY, MAIL WAS DELIVERED BY FOOT, CARRIAGE OR HORSE.

AND AS TECHNOLOGY IMPROVED, THE POSTAL SERVICE UTILIZED TRAINS, STEAMBOATS, CARS, AND AIRPLANES.

NOW, ONE OF THE MOST UNUSUAL METHODS THE POSTAL SERVICE USED ONE TIME IS WHEN THEY PUT 3,000 PIECES OF MAIL IN A CRUISE MISSILE AND THIS MAIL WAS DELIVERED IN 22 MINUTES.

WOW!

THAT'S PRETTY QUICK.

JUST A HEADS UP, YOU ARE NEVER SUPPOSED TO MAIL THE FOLLOWING ITEMS: BATTERIES, FIREWORKS, OR YOUR KID SISTER.

FUNNY STORY, IN 1914, A FAMILY MAILED THEIR DAUGHTER FOR 53 CENTS TO HER GRANDPARENTS.

I BET YOU THAT DAY THEY CALLED THAT PACKAGE FEE-MAIL!

WELL, THAT'S ABOUT ALL I HAVE FOR TODAY.

I'M DR. LEAH LEO COOL AND I WILL SEE YOU NEXT TIME ON DR.

COOL'S FUN SCHOOL.

LET ME SEE WHAT I GOT IN THIS PACKAGE TODAY.

TALK ABOUT JUNK MAIL!

♪ "FRIDAY ZONE" ♪ ♪ FRIDAY ♪♪ >> HEY, GUYS, WE WILL GO ON OVER AND CHECK IN WITH CHEF CORBIN WITH ONE WORLD CATERING AND SEE WHAT HE HAS COOKING UP IN THE KITCHEN.

HI, CHEF CORBIN.

HOW ARE YOU DOING.

>> I'M DOING GREAT.

HOW ARE YOU?

>> IT LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE HERE WITH QUINCY.

>> HI, QUINCY.

>> HI.

>> WHAT ARE WE DOING TODAY?

>> SO WE HAVE SOME FRESH BLUEBERRIES.

>> YUM.

>> AND WE'RE GOING TO MAKE SOME FRESH WHIPPED CREAM TO GO WITH THEM.

>> FRESH WHIPPED CREAM WITH BLUEBERRIES THAT SOUNDS AWESOME.

OH, LET'S GET IT STARTED.

>> OKAY.

HERE WE GO.

WE START WITH HEAVY WHIPPING CREAM.

WE'LLPOUR THAT INTO A GOOD-SIZED BOWL.

YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BIG ENOUGH BOWL SO THAT WHEN YOU WHISK, IT GETS A LITTLE MESSY.

>> OH, OKAY.

>> A BIG BOWL HELPS IT STAY CONTAINED.

AND THEN WE'LL ADD A LITTLE BIT OF CINNAMON SUGAR TO THE WHIPPED CREAM.

A LITTLE FLAVOR.

>> IMPORTANT.

>> AND THEN QUINCY WILL STIR LIKE MAD!

[ CHUCKLES ] >> MAKE SURE THEY CAN SEE.

>> SO YOU HAVE TO STIR REALLY, REALLY -- HOW DOES THE STIRRING MAKE IT INTO A WHIPPED CREAM?

>> WELL, THE TOOL THAT HE'S USING IS A CALLED A WHISK.

IT INCORPORATES LITTLE TINY AIR BUBBLES INTO THE WHIPPED CREAM, AND THE WHIPPED CREAM IS THICK ENOUGH AND HAS ENOUGH MOLECULES THAT IT GRADUALLIES TO RISE GRADUALLY STARTS TO RISE AND RISE, AND EVENTUALLY IT'S WHIPPED CREAM.

YOU COULD USE A HAND MIXER OR A STAND MIXER TO DO THIS, IF YOU DIDN'T WANT TO USE YOUR OWN MUSCLE POWER, BUT I THINK IT'S EVEN MORE REWARDING WHEN YOU WHIP IT BY HAND.

>> HMM.

>> QUINCY, DO YOU NEED A BREAK YET?

>> UM -- >> DO YOU WANT ME TO TAKE IT OVER?

[ CHUCKLES ] >> OKAY, I WILL FINISH THE WHISKING.

IT DOES TAKE SOME EFFORT.

>> AND WE'RE JUST GOING TO PUT THIS RIGHT ON TOP OF OUR BLUEBERRIES?

>> YES.

WE HAVE ONE MORE INGREDIENT WE ARE GOING TO ADD FIRST, AND THEN THAT WILL BE MAPLE SYRUP TO THE BLUEBERRIES.

>> NICE!

>> AND THAT'S WHY WE DIDN'T ADD VERY MUCH SUGAR TO THE WHIPPED CREAM BECAUSE WE ARE ADDING A LITTLE BIT OF MAPLE SYRUP TO THE BLUEBERRIES.

I CAN SEE IT'S DEFINITELY GETTING LIGHTER AND FLUFFIER.

WHY DON'T YOU GO AHEAD AND PUT THE MAPLE SYRUP ON THE BERRIES.

>> HEY, QUINCY, DO YOU MIND PULLING BACK THAT BLUEBERRY BOWL JUST A LITTLE BIT?

WOULD LOVE TO WATCH YOU, THE AMOUNT THAT YOU ARE GOING TO PUT ON.

>> NOT TOO MUCH.

THERE WE GO.

>> GORGEOUS!

♪ >> HEY, QUINCY, WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FRUIT?

>> MUSTMY FAVORITE FRUIT IS PROBABLY STRAWBERRIES.

>> STRAWBERRIES.

THOSE ARE REALLY GOOD.

I LOVE STRAWBERRIES.

I BET STRAWBERRIES WOULD BE REALLY GOOD WITH THE WHIPPED CREAM TOO.

>> OH, YEAH, ANY KIND OF BERRIES WOULD BE GOOD IN THIS DISH, OR EVEN BANANAS OR WHATEVER FRUIT YOU LIKE, PINEAPPLES.

>> HMM.

>> PEACHES IN THE SUMMERTIME.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

DOES IT LOOK FLUFFY ENOUGH?

>> YEAH.

>> LOOK AT THAT!

>> IT'S NICE AND LIGHT AND FLUFFY NOW.

>> WOW!

WOULD YOU HOLD THAT UP TO THE CAMERA FOR A SECOND SO WE CAN GET A -- NICE!

THAT LOOKS BEAUT IF UHL!

-- THAT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL!

>> AND THEN WE WILL PUT A BIG DOLLOP RIGHT THERE?

>> THAT WAS REALLY SATISFYING!

[ LAUGHTER ] WOW, THAT LOOKS SO GOOD!

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH.

QUINCY, YOU'VE GOT TO TAKE A BITE AND TELL ME HOW IT IS.

>> I THINK IT'S GONNA BE GOOD.

>> WE GET THE QUINCY NOD OF APPROVAL.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THAT LOOKS AMAZING!

WE WILL BE RIGHT BACK.
