If FDR had been president during the crash of 29, I doubt he would have been elected to the presidency 4 times. And I think the openning speech by Adolf Hitler during the 1936 Olympics in Berlin was the first or one of the first "television" broadcasts, or use of that technology.

Thankfully Biden will be dealing with current affairs. 
As a note to those who are a little less enlightened on American history, it was the 31st president of the United States, Herbert Hoover of the Republican Party, who was president during the Great Depression. A loathsome politician indeed.
Wouldn't it be ironic if our current market crashed in October? It would be "Black Tuesday" all over again.
Have you got a video or news article with Biden saying that? I'd love to read more about it. Reminds me of how President Bush (the current Bush; not Old Man Bush) couldn't spell "Connecticut", the state he was born in:

Stealth Hunter, I heard it on KOA 630 AM Radio, during the Kaplas and Silverman Show. I think it was on wednesday's or thurdays show.
There was also a bit where it sounded like he was trying to blow off a young voter who was questioning him on some of his policies in Ohio, and to dodge it, he responded with a statement about a tornado in Missouri, or Kansas and the 10,000 people died there, and he had to go. Again same radio station and talkjocks.
