50,000 bees in the wall, 50,000 bees! Take one down, pass it around...

0:03 Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm shunning man with five good news stories. Good news humans, one, alligators zero. There was this eight foot alligator and he ran into Mike. Mike is a licensed alligator and I think I made that termino, But he's an a licensed alligator trapper an alligates hoor sounds cooler though, Should we go with that? Mike the alligator caught the alligator by his tail and sat on top of the eight foot alligator so that the eight foot alligator could not escape. Mike didn't even have shoes on. He got the upper hand of the alligator. A crowd began to cheer. He picked up the alligator like a baby. Mike showed the scary looking eight foot alligator was no match for him. He paraded around with the alligator for everyone to see. All this happened when the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office reached out, can't have an eight foot alligator walking through town, you know? Yeah? Now, maybe Mike could help with the seagulls. I love this headline. Brits are being terrorized by savage seagulls with rifle XL gully gangs competing for the title of Britain's toughiest Avian thugs. Yes, there are some seagulls. They cause chaos, they come down, they steal your food, they menace you.

1:17 One gang of seagulls has been nicknamed the XL Gullies Gang, and they are led by Bugsy seagull. Local resident Martin told the Daily Start this seagull walks around up and down the street as if he owns the joint, swiping any food and get his beacon. Some other locals are fans of a different seagull named Stephen Seagull. Ben said, the bird residing on your front page of the newspaper couldn't face the web boots of Steven. You may not be familiar with the burden question, but Steven has such confidence, such testosterone, such swagger that he truly believes he's an eagle. Megan is a fan of Judas, the seagull who's taken over her garden. She said he's hardcore. Every time another seagull comes anywhere near him, go for them, practically take a chunk out of their wing. What's good news about this, John, I don't know. Sometimes the stories are just fun. I define good news as not bad news. Judas. The seagulls favorite foods apparently are pizza fruit and Cathedral City cheese. The fun is in the details. Another world record in Nigerian chess champion played chess NonStop for sixty hours in New York City's Times Square to break the record for longest chess marathon toon day set out to play chess for fifty eight hours, but continued until he reached sixty at around twelve forty am in the morning. That beat the previous record of fifty six hours, nine minutes, thirty seven seconds toon day. Played against Sean, an American chess champion. That was to keep in line with the Guinness World Record guidelines that any attempt to break the record must be made by two players who would play continuously for the entire duration. So didn't Sean also break the record or

2:52 did he quit like five seconds before ago? You went like, I'm confused, but hey, it's fun. For every hour of the game, they were given only five minutes break. The breaks were sometimes grouped together and today used it to catch up with locals cheering them on. It was a fundraiser here. They raised twenty two thousand dollars. Now good news if you live in Chicago and you want nice street sidewalks. They got rid of that rat hole. One do you know about the rat hole? There was a sidewalk in Chicago's North Side and it had like a divot and the divot looked like somebody had smashed a rat. A Chicago comedian had shared a photo of the rat hole on social media, and it became a thing. Locals started complaining about visitors showing up all the time, leaving coins and other items by the rat hole on the sidewalk. Some of the neighborhoods said, it's not even a rat, it's a squirrel, But good news. Erica is a spokesperson for the Chicago Department of Transportation. She said the square of sidewalk containing the famous Chicago rat hole is now in temporary storage. This could wind up in a museum somewhere. How fun, all right? A fair criticism from Wowie Wow, who left a one star review on Apple podcast and said crazy ratio of ads to the actual podcast.

4:23 Like, at some point, you know, I gotta eat. Do you like bees? Just another one of the stories that I'm not sure is good news. If you like bees, it's good news. A toddler told a mom that she heard monsters in her bedroom. Well that's not good. Well, a beekeeper came by and discovered over fifty thousand bees in the wall. Ashley tells people the little girls that she heard monsters and we'd been watching monsters inc We told her nobody's in the closet. We made jokes about fighting the monster. We gave her a spray bottle full of water that was her monster spray. But the poor girl was freaking out, kept saying there were monsters. Then mom noticed a few bees in the attic. Since they live in a one hundred year old farmhouse, they decided to call pest control. Past control said they were honey bees, probably just looking for a place to stay.

5:10 They don't spray the bees because they're in danger, so that opened up a whole new thing. They went through several beekeepers who were like, no, can't help. Finally a beekeeper came with a thermal camera to assess the situation. It revealed a bee hive. Mom said, at first I thought it was a body. I was like, what is that and the beekeeper says, it's a hive. He took out a hammer and knocked on the wall. Bees came swarming out like a horror movie. Mom says, there were streams of bees in the wall where he hit. It was oozing honey, but it looked like blood because it was really really dark. Running down my daughter's pink walls looked really strange. He opened up the wall and it was one of the biggest hives he's seen in his forty year career. Just fifty thousand bees swarming like crazy my daughter's bedroom. This poor little girl. We sealed off the room. He came back the next day. The first day, the beekeeper was able to remove twenty thousand bees and a one hundred pound chunk of honeycomb. They had to seal off the room. He came back the next day and he took out another twenty thousand bees. They introduced the beekeeper to the little girl and said his name is mister Munster Hunter.
