"The Bet"

"The Bet", also known as "The Gun", is an episode that was written for the second season but never filmed. In the episode, Elaine bets against Jerry on the ease of buying a handgun to protect herself. In a subplot, Kramer returns from a vacation in Puerto Rico and tells Jerry and George he had sex with a flight attendant during the flight back. George makes a bet with him and goes to the airport with Jerry and Elaine to ask the flight attendant if Kramer's allegation is true.

Marijuana was not illegal in the United States until October 1, 1937, when Congress passed the "Marijuana Tax Act". Total debate time on the House of Representatives floor concerning this issue: 90 seconds. This act did not actually ban the substance - it simply said that one could not sell marijuana without a license. Congress refused to issue any licenses. Congress finally banned marijuana outright in 1970.

I'll try "Yesterday" by the Beatles.

I'm pretty sure it is/was the most covered song in history, so most radio plays should be a reasonable possibility.

Yesterday first appeared on The Beatles' Help! album, released in August, 1965. It was first released on 45 RPM in September, 1965, b/w Act Naturally.

I chose the wording of my questions very carefully. There's often a clue to the solution, or something to rule out something else.
