Caloroga Shark Media. Hey, good
news. If you'd like to sit around

2
00:00:10.839 --> 00:00:14.320
and drink coffee and not really do
anything. Hi, I'm Johnny Mack with

3
00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:20.239
five good news stories. Researchers have
found that coffee drinkers had a twenty four

4
00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:25.440
percent risk of mortality compared with non
coffee drinkers who do a lot of nothing.

5
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.320
That's right, those who sat around
for more than six hours and don't

6
00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:33.320
drink coffee. Out of twenty four
percent, we're more likely to die.

7
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:38.000
This, according to a study in
the BMC Public Health Journal. Now,

8
00:00:38.039 --> 00:00:41.439
you might want to move around as
well. Researchers did point out that non

9
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:45.359
coffee drinkers who sat six hours and
more per day were fifty eight percent more

10
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:50.079
likely to die of all causes than
coffee drinkers who sat less than six hours

11
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:54.719
a day. That indicates both the
risk of sedentary behavior and the benefit of

12
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:59.880
coffee drinking. Researchers note that given
the coffee is a complex compound, further

13
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:06.200
research is needed. Darren mccaid has
the record for most Ghostbusters memorabilia. He

14
00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:11.439
has twenty and twelve pieces. He
took the world record from Ohio's Robert O'Connor,

15
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:15.359
who only has twelve hundred and twenty
one items. Darren mccaid told the

16
00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:19.040
Guinness World Records it's essentially like living
in a Ghostbusters museum. Some of his

17
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:26.319
rarest items include a Ghostbusters two Christmas
cracker box, a Ghostbuster's stunt kite.

18
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:30.640
Also mcaid a beard does an extra
in the latest Ghostbusters film. Mccuad works

19
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.879
as a magician and says I love
mixing Ghostbusters with magic. Whenever I learn

20
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:37.640
or invent a new trick, I
always see if I can add a Ghostbusters

21
00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:40.280
theme to It doesn't always work,
but I love it what it does.

22
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:42.200
He's hoping add more to his collection. He says, I seem to run

23
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:45.879
out of space about once a year, but I always find room for more

24
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:49.719
touching story Here, Dulce received a
touching gift in memory of her father.

25
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:56.599
Dad had passed away a month before
Dulce's birthday. The family surprised Dulce with

26
00:01:56.640 --> 00:02:00.400
a build a bear. The bear
was outfitted in a hat reminiscent of one

27
00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:04.040
that Dad often wore. She got
more emotional when she pressed the beer's paw,

28
00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:07.040
which played a recording of her dad
singing a song from Barney the Purple

29
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:10.840
dinosaur. Jacob and Harley are the
Spud Brothers. They've gone viral all over

30
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:16.080
the world with their tasty baked spuds. They operate the Hot Potato Tram.

31
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:20.680
People are lining up and they always
give the first customer of the day a

32
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.919
free baked potato. One woman came
all the way from Melbourne, Australia to

33
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:29.479
the UK. She ordered a jacket
potato with cheese, beans, grelic,

34
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.240
brother and a bit of sour cream. She explained that the Hot Potato Tram

35
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:36.759
had been all over her TikTok.
Jake said, you came to the UK

36
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:39.039
just for this, It's crazy if
you haven't thank you so much. How

37
00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:43.800
long did it take her? About
twenty three hours. The woman did not

38
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.960
reveal her name, but said it
better live up to my expectations, and

39
00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:52.080
Jake said, yeah, I hope
it does. And here in the fifth

40
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:54.280
position. You know these are always
a little mixed to fine. Good news,

41
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:59.759
John, I don't know. Not
everything is perfect, but a mom

42
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.120
found a way to make things a
little less horrible. She threw a fun

43
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:07.360
ar role for her late husband with
a bouncy castle in goodie bags, trying

44
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:10.840
to make positive memories for their kids. Katie's husband, Brandon, suffered a

45
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:14.879
stroke at the age of thirty nine
and passed away a few weeks later.

46
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.719
Katie didn't want the three kids to
have horrible memories of their dad's send off.

47
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:21.080
I was thinking about my children and
how the day would be, and

48
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:23.520
it felt so wrong. All we
were going to do was have horrible memories.

49
00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:27.599
It didn't feel true to Brandon.
So instead of a traditional service and

50
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:31.039
wake, the mom set out to
make it a fun arrole. She featured

51
00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:36.280
his favorite foods, chip and dip, displayed his artwork and his record collection,

52
00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:38.960
so everyone could take home a goodie
bag of items that would keep his

53
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:42.319
memory alive. She said, I
have so many happy memories of Brandon.

54
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:44.560
We love to cook together, and
he taught me how to fun in the

55
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:46.879
kitchen and'd follow a recipe and he'd
make things up. The kids will only

56
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:51.840
have the happiest memory from their dad's
funeral instead of it being traumatic. Brandon

57
00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:53.960
loved being a dad more than anything
on earth. He would have been happy

58
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:58.919
that his kids were happy. And
those are five good news stories for today.
