Speaker 1 (00:03):
Caloroga Shark Media be there of Johnny Mack with five
good News stories? Did you enjoy five good news Halloween
stories yesterday? I had a ball doing it. I hope
you enjoy that. I've actually recorded a few of them.
They're a lot of fun to do. And elementary school
teacher in Australia has her head in the clouds after
(00:24):
a proposal from her fiance okay, what happened here? Will
took staff up in a plane and popped the question,
hoping a ten thousand foot view of their relationship would
be the winning formula to capture her heart. She told
the local news. I thought it'd propose suit, but I
wasn't expecting to do it that way. Oh there's more
to this. See he is a farmer. So what he
did was he spaced out twelve meter long rows to
(00:47):
form each letter, mark them out in a GPS file
and use that as a guide in his air powered
seed spreader. Said the E didn't come out so good,
so he had to redo that by hand. A couple
weeks later. Fiancee usually wants to come out on a
crop tour and I had to say no, which I
didn't like too much. Anyway, there they are in the
plane and guess what it's spelled out in the canola.
(01:10):
That's right, marry me. Nice job there, Let's keep it
in the form. In Maine, a family farm that honors
children's books in local history has once again taken the
prize for the nation's best corn maze. I probably get
a squeeze this in a five Good News Halloween stories,
couldn't I Tree Orgy Orchards has won for the fourth
year in a row in a competition that measures unique
(01:32):
and expressive corn mazes. This one is a carve out
of a fisherman. The inspiration of this year's design are
the two most important industries in Maine, farmers and fishermen.
Those are represented on the state flag. By the way.
They've also won in the past with designs from Peter
Rabbit and Winnie the Pooh. I'm happy with just a
regular corn maze. In fact, maybe I'll do that Saturday.
(01:54):
Congratulations to an orchard in Virginia. They have captured a
Guinness World Record. Now, not one of these silliest ones, like,
you know, eating most grapes in six seconds using your
left hand while standing on your head. You know, not
one of those, this is heaviest peach. I probably just
gave that other guy an idea heaviest peach by growing
a fruit that weighed in at one point eight three pounds.
(02:14):
That doesn't seem that heavy, But I've never weighed a peach.
How much is a peach weigh? I guess they're pretty light.
The Child's Peach Orchard said peach pickers harvested the massive
fruit in September, and they suspected it could beat the
world record, which was one point eight pounds. This one
is one point eight three pounds, much much heavier. Henry
Chiles to a local TV We weren't intentionally trying to
(02:36):
grow the biggest peach out there. Just so happened that
the weather we had this year turned out good got
a joinormous speach. The Annals of Improbable Science have announced
this year's ig Nobel Prize winners, the Ignobel Prize. It
was the thirty fifth first annual Ignoble Prizes. They added
out awards for scientific research that makes people laugh then think.
(02:57):
The Literature Prize was given posthumously to William. William had
persistently recorded and analyzed the rate of growth of one
of his fingernails over a period of thirty five years.
The Nutrition prize went to four researchers who determined that
rainbow lizards at a seaside resort in Togo prefer four
cheese to other varizies of pizza. I gotta love this.
(03:19):
The Chemistry prize was presented to some researchers who analyze
weather eating teflon would be an effective way to increase
food volume without extra calories. I'm not sure what the
research was there, but I could guess. The Ignoble Peace
Prize went to some researchers whose study found that drinking
alcohol sometimes improves a person's ability to speak in a
foreign language. The flip side of that, The Aviation Prize
(03:42):
went to researchers who did a study that shows that
alcohol ingestion affects the ability of bats to fly or
drunk bats. And the theme of this year was digestion.
Guest speakers addressed a study that links using a smartphone
on the toilet? Are you doing that now as you
listen to me? That's weird and developing hemorrhoids. I think
(04:04):
this is one of those episodes that's actually four good
news stories, and this one's it's probably not good news.
I'm not sure it's really bad news. It's just news.
San Francisco Bay area residents are told to be on
the lookout for an aggressive squirrel. The aggressive squirrel has
sent at least two people to the emergency room. Joan
said she was walking and the squirrel came out of
(04:26):
nowhere and attacked her leg and started biting her. She
said it clamped under my leg. The tail was flying
up here. I was like, get off me, get off me.
Isabelle was walking in the same area, also attacked by
a squirrel, presumably the same squirrel. The squirrel launched itself
from the ground, jumped on her face, wound up on
her arm, leaving it bloody. Flyers have now been posted
warning residents that the squirrel is no joke. More than
(04:48):
five people have been attacked by a very mean squirrel
that comes out of nowhere. Those your five good news
stories for today. Why you're laughing, I don't know. It's
a silly story. This is just a fun, fluffy show.
Have you not figured that out. I don't want anyone
hurt by a mean squirrel, but the flyer is funny.
You have a great day.
