0:03 Caloroga Shark Media. Hi there, I'm chining back with five good news stories. Hey, good news. We got the horse out of the pool. It's been a hot summer. I feel you, mister Worris. Well, well, here's what happened. In Oklahoma City. Police officers came to the rescue of a horse that fell into a swimming pool. The owners came home and found a horse standing in the pool's corner. How they get the horse out? They used a rope fashioned into a bridle. Police officers pulled the horse to safety. The horse was unharmed. I would not do this story if it didn't end well. You know how this podcast rolls. A police spokesperson said, you know, it's a hot day in Oklahoma City when the pony gets into the pool, and like they say, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it get out. Maybe we can help the climate with some world changing solar technology that can harvest energy from any light source. A company in Sweden has created a durable, flexible miniature solar cell that you could stick on to like anything, a keyboard, your headphone, speakers, bike helmets, maybe my baseball cap that I wore all the time. The lack of light during the winter in Sweden inspired the co founders to look for other sources of power for their solar cells, from direct sunlight to candlelight, even moonlight. These solar cells are waterproof, dustproof, and shot proof.

1:20 They think they could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by about six thousand tons every year. A nice job there. A fundraising campaign has raised more than one hundred one thousand dollars to help repair a Liverpool library and community hub that suffered severe fire damage after being targeted by rioters last week. Yeah, that's kind of awful. Nigella Lawson is among those who have donated to the GoFundMe page, which was set up and aid of Spello Hub Library. They had an initial target of five hundred pounds, but they've raised more than one hundred and twenty thousand pounds in just over two days, more than six thousand donations. The appeal was started by Alex who said I always loved to read as a child, and seeing a library and community space destroyed he broke my heart. I felt helpless and want to do something to help. I thought fundraising would be a nice waiter play. Some of the books lost in the fire. Sparrow Hub found itself part of a violent disorder last weekend. The riot was among a number of incidents of violences that have taken place across England. Police said when firefighters arrived at the library, the rioters attempted to stop them. They even threw a missile at the fire engine and broke the rear window of the cabs. That part's off. All the good news is the fundraiser. Good news for olympian Veronica Freely. She was competing in the Paris Olympics and mentioned on Twitter that she couldn't pay a rent. That got the attention of Flavor Fleeve. She had posted, I compete in the Olympic Games tomorrow and can't even pay my rent. My school only said about seventy five percent of my rent, while they pay football players who haven't won anything enough to buy new cars and houses. Flave noticed the tweet and wrote, I got you, DM me and I'll send

2:50 payment today so i don't have to worry about it tomorrow, and I'm going to be rooting for you tomorrow. Let's go. When I'm not doing this, I host a podcast that's called Daily com Many News. Keep you up to date on what's happening in the world standup comedy. It's a lot of fun. We talk about everything from Seinfeld, Saturday Night Live, Jim Gaffigan, Joe Rogan, Dave Chappelle, Nikki Glazer, the Roase to Tom Brady. You know that kind of stuff, and it could be very gossipy. It's a lot of fun. Same thing. I keep it clean like this show. So it's called Daily Comedy News, seven days a week, ten minutes. Where if you get your shows. I got a world record for you, I know, right, what's this one? Johnny Mack and Italian man pulled three small planes while walking on his hands. Yes, he broke the record for that most light aircrafts pulled by walking on hands. Congratulations to Mateo.

3:36 He said he'd turned two more unusual athletic pursuits after a series of injuries forced him to quit rugby. He said the worst of them was a bad back injury. The doctor said I can ever play sport again. But they were wrong. All right. How do you train for the record for most light aircrafts pulled by walking on your hands? According to Matteo, you do yoga, cardio and strength training. You could see the strength training part. Sure, I'm proud of this record, but I'm also not entirely satisfied about the final result. I'm sure I can pull four aircraft or even more so I'll try to do that as soon as I can, and I'm sure Johnny Mack will report on that. And those are five good news stories for today. If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it, they might like it too. And if you'd like the show without commercials, I get it. The show's a little short, and you get it. You got to pay the rent, right, So how do we meet halfway? There's a link of the show notes. You can get this show and a bunch of others on the Catalaroga Shark Network.
