Brainless Bodies, Hooters' Family Makeover, and a Pregnant Bank Robber

The Headlines:

• Scientists Are Developing Brainless Human Bodies for Organ Transplants and Medical Testing

• Hooters Is Trying to Go Family-Friendly in a $300 Million Rebrand

• A Pregnant Woman Pulled Off Two Bank Heists—And Tricked Her Husband Into Being the Getaway Driver

Scientists Are Working on "Brainless Bodies" for Organ Transplants

In what sounds like a sci-fi plot, researchers are exploring the creation of bodyoids—human bodies grown in artificial wombs without brains or consciousness. The goal? To create a sustainable source of organs for transplants and a new way to test medications without using live humans or animals.

While the concept raises serious ethical concerns, supporters argue that it could eliminate long transplant waitlists and revolutionize medicine by offering non-sentient test subjects. Scientists are proposing small-scale tests on animals first to see if the process is viable.

Hooters’ $300 Million Makeover: Less “Hoot,” More Family-Friendly

Hooters is in serious financial trouble, with around $300 million in debt and 40 locations shutting down last year. Their latest survival strategy? A family-friendly makeover they're calling "Re-Hooterization"—but some might call it "De-Hooterization."

The plan includes:

• A stronger push toward a family dining atmosphere (yes, Hooters has a kids' menu).

• A menu overhaul with fresher ingredients.

• A shift away from the “Hooters Girls” image that made them famous.

Will this work, or will it alienate the brand's core audience? Time will tell.

Pregnant Woman Pulls Two Bank Heists, Tricks Husband Into Being the Getaway Driver

In one of the wildest crime stories of the year, a woman in Poland robbed two banks while eight months pregnant—and convinced her husband to unknowingly be her getaway driver.

Anna A., 37, got hooked on gangster movies during her pregnancy and decided to live out the fantasy. She told her husband she had a baby doctor appointment, then went inside the banks and pulled off armed heists.

She was eventually caught, gave birth in prison, and just lost her appeal. Hollywood, take notes.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, it takes three minutes to get everything you need

(00:01):
to know for the day with Nita's what's trending.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
So Hooters is getting rehooterized, so that they're rehooterizing themselves
as in rebranding. So if you remember Hooters, this is
a great spot everybody would go to for wings another.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
Awful wings the way.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Wait, seriously, they were never Wings were that bad. I
thought they were.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
I used to all the time, and then it was
fun because they would sing for people anytime you were like,
oh it's a birthday, or just embarrass them.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
You don't, don't, you don't bread wings Wings are stupid anyway.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Sorry, anyway, they're rehooterizing themselves in a way that means
that they're going to be more family friendly. They had
to file for bankruptcy. They're over three hundred million dollars
in debt and they're just refusing to let go. So
they want to try this again by adding more fresh
ingredients to their menu, having their waitresses not dressed the
way that they did before, or servers.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
I guess it's it's always called themselves a family place.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
They have it's always been a family restaurant technically speak that's.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
Funny on paper, and now they're really leaning into that
to make it actually a family place.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
So they're just going to be a wing place now,
yeah right, eventually, Yeah, but.

Speaker 4 (01:09):
If they would never were a great wing place and
people didn't go there for the wings.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
That was just my opinion.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
But it's just like Applebee's or it could be like
any one of those, like Applebe's, Chili's.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
It's like that.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
Really, if they're not the thing that they were, then
there another apple Bee's or Red Robin or something like that.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
Well, men used to go there so they could feel
good about themselves. The people that worked at Hooters had
really cute outfits and they were really good at working
them for tips.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, anytime I was out of Hooters, it was always
so pathetic to look over to see a table of
guys watching sports or something to think that the waitresses
actually done to them.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Really funny. Actually, my friend Bla used to work there.
I can say her name because she tells everybody she did,
and you guys know her. But you know, they got
a lot of tips. But now the family friendly is
going to be making the whole thing a little bit different.
I just love that they have titled it rehooterizing. Yeah,
they're bringing it back with rush your ingredients. This is
actually really fascinating. Science is doing something big. They're working

(02:07):
to create brainless human bodies to use for organ transplants
and medical testing. Have you guys heard about this?

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Yeah, I'm very confused.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
They're growing human bodies with honey brains. They can't feel anything,
but they're basically harvesting your organ yeah, or organs?

Speaker 1 (02:21):
How do they grow a human body stem cells? I mean,
probably a lot more than that, but at least that.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
I just picture walking into one of those rooms and
there's all these bodies like floating in water, you know
what I mean, Like when you see in the movies.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
They're just like a zombie apocalypse.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
Yeah, listen, I don't know that I hate this. It
is creepy, but it is like, I don't know, it's creepy.
It's creepy, creepy, but.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
It also could possibly say libes exactly, Yeah, that's something.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Could save lives exactly true.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
But I've been thinking of like you are on like
an organ transplant list, like this could like really save you.
But also I don't know, we don't know what's going
on with those bodies that like do have brains and
are just like Chillian tanks.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Well that's what they're saying. It raises ethical questions. But
these body body OIDs I could revolutionize medicine, not by
giving people more organs, also by reducing testing on animals
and all that kind of stuff too.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
So really fast, you needed a heart transplant and you
get a heart from a body oid. I hate that name.
To find something else, but like what is I don't
I'd be curious to know what that body thing with
that heart?

Speaker 1 (03:31):
It has me different.

Speaker 4 (03:32):
So what I'm saying, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Well, it's like a synthetic organ.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Oh, essentially, So there's only one hundred thousand people on
the transplant list, and there's three hundred million plus in
this country alone. So my thought there is like not
to say that one hundred thousand people is in a
lot of people, but I'm just saying, you know, it's
how many body oys you have to make? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Enough for an army. I'm just saying later, yeahs behind it.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yes, Oh my gosh, should we just send on body
ooids or do you want to know about a pregnant criminal? Yeah?
Of course, my bad. So have you ever watched the
show and thought, oh my gosh, I can do that.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
No.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah, this pregnant lady in Poland, eight months pregnant, was
watching a lot of bank robbery movies and so and
so she thought, you don't have.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
The fetus grabbed the cash. Yeah, great idea.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
She probably thought she could get away with it because
she was pregnant. She's like, nobody's gonna suspect a pregnant anyway.
So she tricked her husband into being an accomplice because
she told him she was going to the doctors to
get checked.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
And then she went into the bank stole money.

Speaker 4 (04:39):
And then if you put that picture together in your head,
feeded stealing the money, gave me back.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
Just reaching out, just a little hand grabbing.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
It, grabbing and pulling it back in.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
You can't get man, did your fetush just grab cat? No,
can't do that. This got weird, Absolutely not. That's just
on a bet.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
It's a body hooid.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
She walks out in high five. Is the fetus?

Speaker 2 (05:09):
Are you still going? Are you still going
