Speaker 1 (00:01):
It feels good, all right, good news, happy stories. We
share them with you every day on the program Kale
and Go.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
I love this so much so parting ways with your
phone actually pays off. At one restaurant in Italy, Al Condominio,
which opened in the northern city of Verona in March,
offers a free bottle of wine to customers who hand
their phones in before meals. We wanted to open a
restaurant that was different from the others, said the owner,
so we picked this format. Customers can choose to renounce

(00:28):
technology while enjoying a moment together. Technology has become a problem.
There's no need to look at your phone every five seconds,
but for many it's like a drug. This way they
have a good opportunity to put it aside and drink
some good wine upon arrival. Diners can also so they can.
You can put your phone in one of those boxes
under lock and key at the entrance, and then the
key will get you the free bottle of wine. There's

(00:49):
also another perk where if you leave a review, you
get a free meal the next time you go, and
they say ninety percent of customers have opted to leave
their phone in exchange for the free and it's about
my own one. I mean, hey, we got to have
balances those people and then it's me.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Right, are you still going to get that for who's
going to review? You know? Ticket victory? Yeah, well Victoria
is going to Victoria one. I still think it's where
the Victoria is a picture of you. I want to
change that on your burner account. Massachusetts, where's it again? No,
mass Jose it nice job. That place has won a

(01:29):
million dollar prize in this state lottery instant ticket for
the second time in ten weeks. So her name is
Christine Wilson. She claimed the first million dollar prize in
the Lifetime Millions fifty dollars instant ticket game on February
twenty third. She opted a receiver prize in the form
of a one time payment of six hundred and fifty
thousand dollars before taxes, and then ten weeks later she

(01:49):
hit it again playing the one hundred times cash ten
dollars instant ticket game, and she said she plans to
put her winnings into savings two million dollars scratch off winnings.
Whoa in ten weeks and I just keep playing. Here's
the thing, like I would not think to keep playing
if I won because the odds, and I realized that

(02:10):
some statisticians listening going wow, that I would just think, look,
I already defied the odds. I want, I don't need
to play the lotter anymore. The odds of me winning
twice are just absurd, And then just keep going by
one twice,
