Happy Flag Day!

I know Flag Day isn't the most exciting holiday but as with nearly every holiday there's always something you can learn. Flag Day is in celebration of when the United States adopted the Stars and Stripes as the American flag on June 14, 1777. Since then, I feel like Flag Day is a great way to learn about all kind of flags from state flags to different countries flags. I figure it's always good to learn more.

Below is a small geeky list of flag themed episodes from two shows: Molly of Denali and The Big Bang Theory. Happy Flag Day everyone!
