00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:10.400
Caalaroga Shark Media. Hey there, Johnny Mack with five good

2
00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:12.599
news stories. I hope the summer you've been enjoying all

3
00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:14.480
these Guinness records I've been telling you about. Some of

4
00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:18.280
them are quite silly. Well, the latest one, congratulations to

5
00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:22.839
Chen Xoujing, who broke the record for most spins of

6
00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:26.000
a mobile phone on one finger in one minutes. Yes,

7
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:29.480
that is a record. Chen jouzing spun the phone three

8
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:32.920
hundred and twenty times. Again, that's most spins of a

9
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:37.799
mobile phone on one finger in one minute. Congratulations. Good

10
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:41.840
news for Misty the puppy that Koweika sinkson happened to

11
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:45.359
be in Hawaii Volcanos National Park. Misty the puppy was

12
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:48.240
in a remote area of Hawaii Volcanos National Park when

13
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:51.159
she got into a tight spot. She ended up at

14
00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:54.560
the bottom of a narrow volcanic fissure that was twenty

15
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:57.600
five deep. She couldn't get out, and her owner couldn't

16
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:00.240
get down. Something similar happened to me on Sunday. My

17
00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:04.680
old dog, who's almost seventeen, got trapped under the recliner

18
00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:07.640
I was reclining in and she wanted me to help her,

19
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:09.879
but I couldn't get up because if I went to

20
00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:12.640
stand up, the recliner part would crush her. So I

21
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:14.560
had to actually call my wife and be like, can

22
00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:17.799
you come outside, this is a ridiculous thing happening out here. Anyway,

23
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:20.920
Misty ended up at the bottom of a narrow volcanic fisher,

24
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:23.480
twenty five feet down. She couldn't get out, her owner

25
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:28.560
couldn't get down. Kawika is a well known repeller on

26
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:31.200
the Big Island of Hawaii. Her owner had heard about

27
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:34.599
her through social media. She reached out. Kuwika Singhson is

28
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:37.680
a former military man and athlete and told USA Today

29
00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:40.239
they are like five volcanoes on the island. Some of

30
00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:42.560
these dogs they end up wandering in large, very thin

31
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:45.280
volcanic fishers, basically crack in the ground that goes very deep.

32
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:49.120
Not many people can actually go under. Singson got the call.

33
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:51.280
He knew he had to help. The owner had tried.

34
00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:53.400
Singson said, they couldn't even squeeze down the crack. They

35
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:55.680
could hear the dog, they couldn't even see the dog. Oh,

36
00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:58.439
never mind, the same dog they got trapped under you

37
00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:01.840
very gear. The same dog got trapped under my recliner.

38
00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:03.959
A million years ago. I had this wood deck and

39
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:06.280
the dog got trapped under the wood deck and I

40
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:08.759
was calling her and she wouldn't come, and I started

41
00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:10.159
to freak out, and I'm like, oh my god, what

42
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:13.439
if she got stuck and something horrible happened under the deck.

43
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:16.599
I actually took out a chainsaw and cut open the

44
00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:18.919
wood deck to get her out. And then the dog

45
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:20.879
was like, oh yeah, hey, and just walked out. I

46
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:22.639
had the deck repaired, but then you have to get

47
00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:24.319
a guy. He's got to cut the wood a certain way.

48
00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:26.520
Then you have to restain the whole thing. Or you know,

49
00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:28.479
when I call you, you could just come out from under

50
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:30.919
the deck. Sinson drove about two hours from where he

51
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:32.719
was to the other side of the Big Island, went

52
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:35.599
into a dense forest area where Misty was trapped. He

53
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:38.520
also could hear Misty but not see her. He said,

54
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:40.120
I put my lights on, I got my ropes, and

55
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:42.120
somehow I squeezed down into the crack. I could see

56
00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:44.080
the dog at the bottom. She was twenty five feet down.

57
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:47.039
Very anxious, he took his GoPro with him shot the

58
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:49.560
whole thing on video. He got to the bottom. Misty

59
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:51.879
had been there for nine hours, Sinkson told maw we

60
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:54.039
knew she was scared. Her paws were bloody because she

61
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:55.960
was trying to scratch her way out. It was pretty

62
00:02:56.039 --> 00:02:58.639
dramatic because it was difficult getting down, even more difficult

63
00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:01.199
getting back out with the dog. And this show is

64
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:04.199
called five a good news stories. Everything okay in the end.

65
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:07.599
Nice job there everyone. Meanwhile, a Tennessee diver came to

66
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.400
the rescue when a thirteen year old boy lost his

67
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:15.759
fishing pole in Norris Lake. Kendricks inherited the fishing bole

68
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:18.159
from his father. His father passed away in twenty twenty two,

69
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:20.840
so you can understand why Kendricks was upset when the

70
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:23.800
fishing pole sank to the bottom of Norris Lake. He

71
00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:25.759
told the local TV I was on our kayaks. I

72
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:27.560
paddled too fast. The wind caught the back of it.

73
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:30.919
It fell off the back of the kayak. Grandma called Jason,

74
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:34.759
a local diver known for finding your stuff. He found

75
00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:36.639
the pole in a matter of minutes, Jason said, to

76
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:40.639
see the smile on Kendricks's face was priceless. Not sure

77
00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:42.639
this is good news, but it's fun. A pair of

78
00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:47.199
goats decided to give a stress test to an suv

79
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:51.360
on a Colorado mountain. Mindy came back to her suv

80
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:54.599
after hiking on Mount Blue Sky, about forty five miles

81
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:56.879
west of Denver and noticed on the top of her

82
00:03:56.919 --> 00:03:59.680
car there were hoof prints. She posted on social media.

83
00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:01.719
These are Prince. There was a goat on my car.

84
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:03.840
That's hilarious and all the way here to the top.

85
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:08.000
Two Colorado Parks and Wildlife shared the video on social media.

86
00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:10.520
The post said, look up mountain goat on top of

87
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:13.599
vehicle coverage. Mountain goats of special hoofs that helped them

88
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:16.600
travel up cliffs, steep slopes, and in this case a car.

89
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:21.079
And if you want to vote for literally anyone else

90
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:24.560
moved to Texas because a texasman has changed his name

91
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:29.319
legally to literally anybody else. He's running for president. He's

92
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:31.600
thirty five years old, he qualifies. He used to go

93
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:35.120
by the name Dustin, but now literally anybody Else says

94
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:38.399
he's running for presidents to protest the major party candidates

95
00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:41.160
and to show his distaste for a system that his

96
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:45.920
website says often prioritizes partisan battles over real solutions. He

97
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:48.199
was running a writing campaign in Texas. He did not

98
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:51.519
get the required one hundred and thirteen thousand signatures, but

99
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.480
it's expected he'll appear by name on the Tennessee ballot,

100
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:58.519
where he did get the signatures needed. Mister Els also

101
00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:02.199
announced his running mate, Neil David Sutz, who's a New

102
00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:06.600
york Man currently living in Switzerland. Okay, those are five

103
00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:09.279
good news stories for today. If you enjoy the program,

104
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:11.600
tell a friend about it. They might like it too.

105
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:13.360
You know, they'll be like, oh, that was a good story.

106
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:15.720
Thanks for sharing that podcast. I like that Johnny mat guy,

107
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:17.519
that's what's gonna happen. So you should do that and

108
00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:18.360
you have a great day.
