Florida Steakhouse Offers Nude Dining

0:03 Oh my, a Florida steakhouse has decided that the problem with dinner is pants. Hi, I'm Johnny Mack with 5 Good News Stories. It's the Class Soiree Steakhouse in Hollywood, Florida, and they're offering what it calls a nude dining experience on the first Monday of every month. That's coming up. October's almost here. You should do it. The chef and owner say the idea is pretty straightforward. Running in a restaurant is difficult, and getting people to notice the restaurant is more difficult. So what do you do? Nude dining. However, the staff is always dressed. The chef says employees have been trained to treat the evening professionally. He says, I'm the chef and owner of my crew. We're all professionals.

0:46 Men pay $ 250. Women pay $ 150. Couples can attend for $ 300. You have to be at least 18, and you can't touch people. That's one of the rules. And I'm going to say a good rule. Toshiba is one of the hostesses. She says, once you walk through the door, I'll most likely be nude, no clothes on. I'm glad she clarified that. So when you come in, you feel more comfortable. Each guest receives a robe, a soft towel, and a seat cover, which answers at least one of the questions that you had. I'm going to flip the order of my stories here. I'll tell you why when we get to number three. I'm flipping two and three. New story number two is an engineering prodigy from Florida has officially been recognized as the youngest college professor in history to Nathan was just 18 and 346 days when he began teaching at Miami Dade.

1:34 By 18, he had a master's degree in electrical engineering. His achievement breaks a record dating back 300 years. Scottish mathematician Colin McLaurin was 19 when he became a professor. Thomas is now 21, still teaches online, but now he's studying for a law degree at the University of Miami School of Law. He's expected to graduate in 2028. He told Guinness, engineering taught me how to break down complex problems in a structured way, and that's carried over into how I approach law school now. All right, John, what story did you skip there? What didn't you want to do after the nude restaurant? Well, a British man has turned a favorite kid's food into a Guinness World Record. Nathan ate 15 fish sticks in one minute. There's a famous joke about fish sticks. I got to make sure I take a pause there. I don't want to get in trouble or anything. We're talking about fish fingers. Let's call them fish fingers. A little safer. Nathan set the record for most fish fingers eaten in 60 seconds. He told Guinness, I decided fish fingers was achievable given I've got a few less formal eating records, so it's up my street. He said, it's a bit strange, but I'm very proud of a world record, but less proud when it's fish finger related. I think I could have done more if I'd let them cool down longer, but I'm happy to have the record. A passenger waiting at a train station saw a tortoise beside the tracks alerted the railway staff. Avanti West Coast and Network Rail stopped the trains while they organized a rescue. The whole thing took 10 minutes, then service resumed. The tortoise, believed to be around 50 years old, was taken to a local rescue center and reunited with its owner. The train people had some fun with it because their mascot is a turtle.

3:07 The turtle mascot is named Turbo. Catherine from the train company said, After receiving reports of a slow-moving trespasser on the tracks, our team worked with Network Rail to carry out a safe rescue. Even our mascot, Turbo, came out of his shell. to help the unexpected visitor company on the journey to a local rescue center. They thanked passengers for their patience. The folks over at Network Rail, they chimed in too and said, while there was initial shell shock in our control room when we first got the call about a trespassing tortoise, there was nothing slow and steady with our response. At last check, the trains were running and were on schedule. Oh no, an Australian beagle ended up at the emergency vet after eating 2.4 pounds of gummy worms. Scooter, the beagle. Ate an entire bag of gummy worms. They're known in Australia as jelly snakes.

3:53 Of course they are. Now, jokes aside, the problem is that some gummy worms contain an artificial sweetener that can be dangerous for dogs. This type did not. But the vets were still worried about the enormous amount of sugar that Scooter concerned, so they induced vomiting. Scooter then vomited up 2.4 pounds of gummy worms. To be safe, they checked out her canine sibling, Jada. They made Jada throw up. Jada threw up exactly one gummy worm. So we know who ate the bag. But if you've got a dog, you know, if you just ask the dogs, hey, who did this? One of the dogs would have made guilty face and the other dog would have been like, what are you talking about? I have dogs. I'm telling you, you could have just asked. They would have guilted themselves.

4:37 The vet summed up Scooter's feelings and said the experience was 10 out of 10 and should do it again. Those are your five good news stories for today.
