The Shark Deck. I'm Johnny Mack
with five good news stories. Hey,
2
00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:13.279
good news. If you've replaced your
lawn with astro turf and you're missing out
3
00:00:13.439 --> 00:00:16.960
on lawn care and getting out there
with the mower, here's a solution for
4
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:22.160
you. Cleaning fan Camerie She'd posts
on TikTok under the user name Camrie fifty
5
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:26.000
three and says if you don't hoover
the artificial grass, you're doing life wrong.
6
00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:30.600
She shared a video she's vacuuming her
artificial grass, removing any debris so
7
00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:33.679
it looks as good as new.
Over the clip, the caption reads point
8
00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:37.320
of view the crazy neighbor who hoovers
the grass on the weekly. Now,
9
00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:42.640
don't take lawn vacuuming advice from Johnny
Mack because Kite Landscapes says you should only
10
00:00:42.799 --> 00:00:47.479
vacuum grass with a specialist vacuum,
as household cleaners can do some serious damage
11
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:51.079
to the artificial grass. As an
alternative, they suggest you get a leaf
12
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:56.119
blower or a garden vacuum. They
explained vacuums that use inside the house are
13
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:59.560
often very intense in terms of suction. You could start sucking grass fibers out
14
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:03.520
of the ground or ruin the strands
of grass. Good news if you feel
15
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:07.120
young at heart. A new study
shows that older adults who feel young at
16
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:11.120
heart may not only live longer,
but may also have more life satisfaction,
17
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:15.000
lower dementia risk, reduce depression symptoms, and better health in the future.
18
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:19.719
This study is in Psychological Science.
The report that over time, adults have
19
00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:23.319
been feeling younger. You know,
the old fifty is the new forty kind
20
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.879
of stuff, and younger than those
of the same chronological age in the past,
21
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.239
even when accounting for other factors that
could influence subjective age, such as
22
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:34.239
chronic illness, loneliness, and education
level. They studied almost fifteen thousand Germans,
23
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:38.959
and the participants felt on average eleven
point five percent younger than their chronological
24
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:42.879
ages. For example, a sixty
year old would feel more like they were
25
00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:46.920
in their early fifties. People born
more recently feel even younger. Every decade
26
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:51.680
that passed conferred an approximately two percent
younger subjective age. For example, a
27
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:55.840
sixty year old born in nineteen thirty
six would feel more like fifty three years
28
00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:57.519
old. They've been doing the study
since nineteen ninety six. I know you
29
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.799
just did some math in your head
there, and we're trying to catch me.
30
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:01.840
No, no, no, no. The study started in nineteen ninety
31
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:06.879
six, but a sixty year old
born in nineteen fifty six would feel like
32
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:12.719
they were fifty years old. The
researchers call the effect subjective rejuvenation feeling younger.
33
00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:15.639
It can be seen as positive because
it's associated with greater well being,
34
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:19.759
healthier lives, and lower rates of
mortality. The researchers also point out physical
35
00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:23.919
activity and stress reduction also have a
positive long term effect on subjective age.
36
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.919
Good news if you're a Pacific blue
whale. Decades ago, as you know,
37
00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:30.680
being a blue whale, you guys
were almost hunted to extinction. But
38
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:35.360
blue whales are back, baby.
According to the University of Washington, the
39
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:39.360
West Coast blue whale population is bounced
back to ninety seven percent of its pre
40
00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:45.080
whaling population. This started when whaling
was outlawed throughout much of the world in
41
00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:49.520
the nineteen seventies. Jenny Dean is
the VP of Education and Conservation at the
42
00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:53.199
wonderfully titled Aquium of the Pacific.
Jenny says there's an opportunity for regrowth and
43
00:02:53.240 --> 00:03:02.599
restoration if we think about this balance
and work together. I am Patty Callahan

Woodson Harvey. Friends in Fiction is
led by four longtime friends, the four
46
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:16.360
of us, with more than seventy
five published books between us. Through end
47
00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:21.599
depth conversations and interviews, we discussed
the books we've written, the books we're
48
00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:25.120
reading, and the art of storytelling. We are here with endless stories to
49
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:31.039
support indie bookstores, authors, librarians
and readers just like you. We are
50
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:38.080
always seeking innovative ways to introduce dynamic
voices and trends in publishing. On this

00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.719
channel, you will find hundreds of
episodes with some of your favorite authors,
52
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:45.120
including the four of us, with
our new releases, as we reveal the
53
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:50.120
stories behind the stories, offer writing
tips and talk about the creation of novels,
54
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:54.680
memoirs, and nonfiction titles. So
if you love books and you're curious
55
00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:59.960
about the writing world, you are
in the right place. You can listen

streaming platform. Congratulations to Michael Lee.
57
00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.879
He's just been awarded his ninth degree
in judo. Oh by the way,
58
00:04:15.959 --> 00:04:19.600
Michael is ninety. He first discovered
the sport while working in the Royal Air
59
00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:24.600
Force after he stumbled on a judo
book in a charity shop though it looked
60
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:28.399
interesting. He went on to become
the chairman of British Judo for two terms,
61
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.000
a national coach and an international referee. Hen told the BBC, I've
62
00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:34.199
had a very interesting life. I've
been to about one hundred and sixty countries.
63
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:38.160
I'm tempted to go on the mat, but until my current disabilities go
64
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:40.439
away, I don't think I'll be
able to. I miss it very much,
65
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:44.920
but everything has a beginning, middle
and end. And congratulations to doctor
66
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:48.920
Robert Moore. He turned one hundred. The neighborhood put on a dog parade.
67
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:54.439
His family estimated twenty to thirty dogs
which show up. Nearly two hundred
68
00:04:54.480 --> 00:04:58.720
dogs came by to wish doctor Moore
a happy birthday. Moore was overjoined and
69
00:04:58.759 --> 00:05:02.519
petted every dog that came by.
Many canine ancends brought gifts including cupcakes,
70
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:05.839
flowers, posters and drawings, and
his daughter Allison said, my father he
71
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:09.839
was so touched. He pet every
single dog that came through. Every person
72
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:13.199
brought the dog up to him.
It was so lovely. Happy birthday,
