Listen in as we share the fun-filled journey of how Kevin Bacon, the runaway pig, was found with the help of his namesake, the famous actor. Our furry friends continue to amaze us, as we tell the story of a Jack Russell terrier named Teasle, who adopted six abandoned kittens, nursing them as her own. We also bring to light an interesting development for those with peanut allergies, as a toothpaste may soon be a lifesaver. Our second half continues to inspire with the story of 12-year-old Shayna who won $25,000 in a science fair for her ingenious fire detection system. A story of resilience and innovation that proves age is no barrier to success.

To cap off, we immerse ourselves in the world of the Funny Bunny show, a rabbit competition filled with excitement and laughter. Listen in as we detail the challenges these bunnies faced and their adorable costumes. It's an episode filled with joy, innovation, and stories that uplift. Don't miss it!

00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:13.839
Callaroga Shark Media. H I am
Johnny Mack with five good news stories until

2
00:00:13.919 --> 00:00:17.199
Christmas. On Monday and Wednesday will
do normal five good news stories and on

3
00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:21.920
Tuesday and Thursday, Astro Ireland has
five good news Christmas Stories. Kevin Bacon

4
00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:27.079
helped find a runaway pig also named
Kevin Bacon. Yeah, it's another one

5
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:31.039
of those stories. I love these. Chelsea brought the pig home in October

6
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:36.000
following two brief breakouts. Kevin Bacon, the pig ran away after burning under

7
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:40.600
the fence of his holding pen.
This began two weeks of running around the

8
00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:45.399
area. Chelsea set up a Facebook
page called Bring Kevin Bacon Home that's set

9
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:49.520
up a running thread of locations and
news about the pig to help coordinate rescue

10
00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:52.679
efforts. She hasked neighbors and friends
to share the page, which eventually got

11
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:58.119
the intention of famous actor Kevin Bacon. Famous actor Kevin Bacon shared it on

12
00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:02.479
Facebook, captioning it bring Kevin Bacon
Home. While Kevin the pig was out

13
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:04.840
loose, he got accustomed to eating
food from humans, which eventually led to

14
00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:08.760
his downfall in the form of a
sticky button laced with harmless benda drill,

15
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:14.599
which for animals is sedative. A
Jack Russell terrier has become a mother to

16
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:19.079
six abandoned kittens, and he's even
producing milk for them. Two year old

17
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:22.519
Teasel stepped up when owner Sue took
in the kittens from a neighbor after they

18
00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:25.920
were abandoned by the kitten's mother.
Diesel embraced her new role. For the

19
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:29.920
next three weeks, Diesel was cleaning, snuggling, and nursing the kittens.

20
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:32.400
Sue was a little worried and said, I was scared she was going to

21
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:34.519
go for them. I was letting
her sniff them, and then she looked

22
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:36.719
at one of them. Then I
realized she actually just wanted to cuddle them

23
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:40.400
rather than meme them. And that's
even more good news because Sue runs a

24
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:44.560
hedgehog hospital and she has more time
now to work on her one hundred and

25
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:49.760
fifty four hedgehog patients. Good news
if you have peanut allergies. A special

26
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:55.079
toothpaste may soon be saving people with
peanut allergies from having severe reactions. They

27
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:59.319
did a trial with the toothpaste containing
tiny amounts of the peanuts to build patient's

28
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:02.599
immunity over ten time. Every participant
in the small trial tolerated the highest dose

29
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:07.879
of the peanut toothpaste without any moderate
or severe systemic reactions. Some experienced a

30
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:12.120
little itch in the mouth, but
it was a mile in transiit reactions similar

31
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:15.400
to what happens when you get in
an injection. Safety was monitored throughout,

32
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:17.639
as well as a blood test to
check out the person's immune system was responding

33
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:22.080
to an allergen. No word yet
in one it might be available for patients.

34
00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:25.159
Congratulations to Shana. She's twelve.
She won twenty five thousand dollars in

35
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:30.360
a science fare for her invention of
a new fire detection system that's faster,

36
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:34.680
cheaper, and more reliable than smoke
detectors. In twenty twenty two, a

37
00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:38.759
fire destroyed a restaurant behind her house. That inspired Shana to create a fire

38
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:43.599
detection system that involved connecting an affordable
thermal camera to a compact computer. It

39
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.000
wasn't that the restaurant didn't have smoke
detectors, just that for those to work,

40
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:49.280
there's to be a lot of smoke, which sometimes I mean a fire

41
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:52.680
has already started and gotten out of
control. The system could send a text

42
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:55.039
message when it detects a heat source
but no human presence for a continuous ten

43
00:02:55.080 --> 00:03:00.400
minute period. Shanea's system accurately detected
human presence ninety eight percent of the time

44
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:02.919
and heat sources ninety seven percent of
the time. She now wants to refine

45
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:06.919
the device by combining it with an
app that would allow you to switch over

46
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:12.719
to a camera after receiving a text
message. Sounds like The Funny Bunny Show

47
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:15.159
was a lot of fun. There
were a lot of contests, including an

48
00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:19.840
obstacle course, rabbit races, a
costume contest, and relay races. In

49
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.000
the obstacle course, bunnies were time
for how long it took to get through

50
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:27.240
the course. Some of the obstacles
are ramped to walk over, a tunnel

51
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:30.919
to go through, and a ring
of fire made from pipe cleaners. A

52
00:03:30.919 --> 00:03:34.240
lot of bunnies took on the challenge, but only one bunny passed through the

53
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:38.120
tunnel correctly. That bunny, Doctor
Strange. There was also a straight shot

54
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:39.879
race. Luna the bunny won that
one with a time of five seconds.

55
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:46.280
Then the costume contest. The costumes
included dinosaur Bunny, cheerleader Bunny, sleepover

56
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:49.759
Bunny, former Bunny, Gentleman Bunny, and Wizard Bunny. The winner,

57
00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:53.439
Panda the Bunny, dressed as a
former bunny and there was an overall fan

58
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:57.360
favorite award that one too, Sully
the Bunny. That's your five good news

59
00:03:57.360 --> 00:04:00.280
stories for today. If you enjoy
the shit, tell a friend about it.

60
00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:04.319
Astor will be in here tomorrow with
five good news Christmas stories and I'll

61
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:05.439
see you on Monday. Thanks
