Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's time for non headline news with Scottie and Hannah.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
On the New Mix ninety nine point five.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
All right, let's get into those news headlines that maybe
weren't headlines, maybe they were buried somewhere else in the news,
so we bring them to light. Like well, we'll start
with the warning in case you hadn't heard it about
trying things that were done in the Olympics.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
Oh, yes, don't do that.

Speaker 3 (00:23):
It's things doctors shouldn't have to say. But apparently a
lot of folks have been coming into emergency rooms after
the Olympics.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Yes, and they have injuries and they ask them, how
did you injure yourself?

Speaker 4 (00:34):
I think of what was one of them a shoulder
injury because they were trying to recreate a move in rugby,
like the lift for.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
The Yeah, they lift the person up in rugby, and
I guess they dropped the person and they were, you know,
bothered by on their shoulder. Also, a backflip is a
wonderful thing to watch, but that's if you've practiced it
for years.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Yeah, I had to picture like a neck head spinal
cord injury.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Not yeah, no bueno, that's exactly right.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
But if you are really good, and you do make
it to the Olympics, and even if you're not, you know,
for the USA, you could end up with some incredible things.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Right.

Speaker 4 (01:07):
Oh my gosh, I cannot get over Carlos. I'm probably
bittering his last name, Yulo playing for the Philippines, well,
competing for the Philippines. This is what he got just
for winning gold. One hundred and seventy three thousand dollars
from the government, which is promised by the way to
all gold medalists at the Olympics.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
He's the first man to get yes.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
And then the House of Representatives said, you know what,
that's not enough money. We'll give you an additional one
hundred and three thousand dollars plus a real estate firm says,
here's a three bedroom condo in this trendy neighborhood that
you're gonna love. He gets free university credits. Wow, from
various restaurants. He's going to get free ramen, mac and
cheese and grilled chicks a.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Bot a second, never mind all the other stuff. Yeah,
he gets free ra men yes, oh wow, Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
But perhaps Scotty the Pista Resistance. Yeah, the thing he
is most excited for free kolonoscapiece for life.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
That is such an odd gift.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
So I did some research.

Speaker 4 (02:04):
I guess there's a doctor in the Philippines who had
the hype around the thing and said, hey, you know what,
you come back with gold, we will give you colonoscopies.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
So he's set.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
They're very important, yes, man, but not to be taken lightly.
But it is an odd gift to add to the rest.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Quite random.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
Yes, but I mean with all of that mac and
cheese and raw your system, you know your colon's going
to be confused.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
It might need a it might need a colonoscope.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
It's right, Okay.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
Let me give you a story from our area. From
the Triad area of North Carolina, authorities are searching for
the owner of a large snake discovered in a vehicle
in Greensboro.

Speaker 5 (02:40):
I thought, I saw this. I just this poor poor woman.
She just heads too are car. She's trying to get
in and she notices the snake. The Guildford County Animal
Control was called. It was a python and apparently it
was at a parking lot at the Executive Forum office
building on Battleground Avenue, and it was nine feet long.

(03:01):
So they think it was a pet or something and
just escape it.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
What I want to know how long had it been
there and where did it like get on in her car?

Speaker 1 (03:10):
Did she drive a long distance? Like at what point
do you pick like you pick up a hitchhiker a snake?

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Right?

Speaker 4 (03:19):
And can you imagine I'm guessing she called nine one
one because that's what I would do and be like,
I don't know what to do. This is an emergency,
please help. Can you imagine one making that call, being
like this is gonna sound ridiculous, and then being the
operator who's like, yeah, I'm gonna need animal control.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
We have a nine foot python.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
On the loop.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yeah, and you know we do have snakes, but not
that particular kind. And I'm doubting that the person who
was the owner wants to come out and say, yeah,
that was mine.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Oh, probably not.

Speaker 4 (03:46):
I wonder if this is a situation like in Florida
they have a problem with them in the Everglades because
people take them as pets. They get too big, they
just release them into the wild. And I wonder if
this is a similar situation.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Well, maybe somebody had traveled from Florida with it in
their vehicle and didn't even know.

Speaker 4 (04:00):
I'm just saying my shoe fell off going into work today,
had they slide on, and it went a little bit
under my car, and I just thought, I hope there's
not a snake underneath here. I hope there's not a
snake underneath her. I remember, I'm going on a rant.
My mom would make us watch Animal Planet, and it
wasn't like the fun, fluffy Animal Planet. It was like
the World's Deadliest Snakes. Yeah, and then you would hear

(04:20):
these stories of this poor woman who's going to in
Arizona just to take her garbage out and she's a
jacked by a snake and she almost dies and her
foot swells up, And that's just what I think is
going to happen.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
It probably will, probably.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
Actually, you're terrified of frogs as well.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
I'm basically terrified of anything smaller than me. Like that's
creepy and crawley.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
All right, Well, authorities are searching for the owner. We'll
see if they ever find the owner.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
All right. Last story.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
This is a genius story because we have our North
Carolina beaches and wherever you happen to be, maybe it's
beaches on the ocean or on a lake. You have
to leave your stuff so you can go get in
the water. What do you do well? A person on
TikTok suggests using a diaper, okay, making it looks like
a dirty diaper, and then wrapping your keys and your

(05:08):
wallet and such in there.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
No one wants to steal a dirty diaper.

Speaker 4 (05:12):
That's a great idea because so often you just you're
gonna put it in a compartment, like, shove it to
the bottom of the bag, put a towel on top
of it, and now here you go. Although now that
we're telling people, yeah, I have a feeling maybe some
robbers will be like, hey, let's go look through the diapers,
but would you?

Speaker 3 (05:28):
I mean, knowing what else could be in there is
about to be easier targets than that. Folks are calling
her brilliant. They said this is classic.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Love it.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
Another person that they've been doing it for eight years
already on their third kid. They'll probably keep doing it
even after.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
I'm guessing, right, and I guess depending on you would
be maybe more familiar with diaper sizing than I am.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
How much stuff you have you need the bigger diapers, right?

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Yeah? Yeah, Well you can get some depends and just
keep this going forever.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
People will definitely avoid you.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Then.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Well, there you go. There's your non headline news, the
extended edition.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
Thanks for joining us. I'm Scotty.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Right over there is Hannah by Say bye, Hannah, bye bye.
Let's catch you next time.
