0:03 Caloroga Shark Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with five good news stories. So there you are. You're at the miniature golf course and you're playing the claw machine, you know the thing. You put in some coins and then the claw goes down. You pick something up. Maybe you get like a Teddy Bear or a blast of toy or something, or how about a live groundhog? Wait what? The Pennsylvania Game Commission said in a Facebook post that the game warden was called out to the Meadows Family Fund mini golf in Duncansville, you know the one. A groundhog how found its way into the claw machine. The game warden saw a wave of stuffed animals move as the groundhog scurried around underneath, and it popped its head out to assess the situation, So he put in a couple of coins and grabbed now. A representative of the company that operates the claw machine was called out to unlock it so that the game commissioner could remove the groundhog.
0:55 The animal was not injured and was released back into the wild. If you're in Denver, the Downtown Quarium as a new resident a rare orange lobster. No it's not red and it's not blue, it's orange. It was rescued from a shipment of crustaceans delivered to a red lobster in Pueblo. An employee who is a dishwasher and quote head biscuit maker spotted the bright orange lobster while unpacking a shipment and alerted restaurant managers. They named the lobster Crush after the Denver Broncos legendary orange crush defense from back ye around seventy six to eighty six. The GM of the Red Lobster, Kendra, said, myself and many of my team were born and raised Denver Broncos fans, So as soon as we saw that orange color, we knew that Crush would be an excellent representation, and we want all our defensive line to be that good again. The Pueblo Zoo couldn't take Crush, but then they called the Downtown Aquarium and they were interested. Right away. They packed Crushed with ice packs and a plastic foam container and delivered it to the aquarium. The GM tells us as soon as they acclimated him to his quarantine tank at the Denver Aquarium, he was very active right off the bat, really exploring his little area. Ryan Herman, general curator at the Denver Downtown Aquarium, in a statement, said, We're thrilled to be able to share this very rare and extraordinary animal with the community and visitors to Colorado. I was curious where this thing came from. All right here it was shipped. It's in Denver after being captured and sent to a Red Lobster in Pueblo that had come from a supplier in Tennessee. Originally caught off the coast of Canada. However,
2:26 the general manager of Red Lobster was unable to confirm which coast fun story there I Meanwhile, in Des Moines, Iowa, they have some new rules for backyard chickens and roosters. After some chicken and rooster fans paraded around city hall, city manager Scott Sanders released a statement saying he thinks that the city can find a way to amend the proposed restrictions on backyard chickens so that they will better serve the whole community. The proposal that got approval from a city council would have cut the number of birds allowed from thirty to twelve and ban roosters that are disturbing the piece in some neighborhoods. Chicken parade organizer Ed said the city seemed to be overreacting to a total of three complaints about chickens. The new rules should allow roosters, but require the licensing of chickens and a setup process for dealing with nuisance animals that can't contain their cock of noodle tools. So when I'm not doing this, I hosted another podcast. It's called Daily Comedy News and tell you what the comedians are up to. You know, people like Seinfeld and Chappelle and Gaffagan and Joe Rogan and you know everybody. So it's called Daily Comedy News, seven days a week, ten minutes long. Wherever you get your shows.
3:32 Nice job by ultra marathoner and Natalie daw Natalie has set a new record for fastest crossing of peninsular Malaysia on foot. Natalie covered over seven hundred kilometers in eight days forty six minutes. To finish the course. She ran between eighty five to ninety five kilometers daily, starting as early as twelve thirty five am to avoid the heat. She says the last twenty kilometers of each day with the hardest I've ever experienced. She did this to raise money for a global charity that supports girls and women through sports that is called GRLS. You know girls get it. She says there is a huge gender gap when it comes to exercising, as females are forty percent less likely to be active, and the numbers even higher in underprivileged communities.
4:15 And do you collect bedpants? Well? The owner of Europe's largest collection of bedpans is trying to find them a new home. She tried to sell them an auction didn't work. Mary said she started her unusual collection while helping out with rummage sales in nineteen eighty four. She told Suffolk News, I saw a slipper bedpan come in and I bought it for sixty four cents and that was the start, and I wanted to collect something different. It's snowball from there and I found myself going around as so many places to add to my collection. She now owns one hundred and sixty three different bedpans and has run out of room to store them. She said, I had a cupboard built to store them in my front bedroom, but I'm getting older, She's seventy seven now and need to clear some space. I hope they go to a good home.
4:55 They're clean Washington and fantastic condition. Boy, I mean good luck with that. I recently had to empty out my mother's apartment. I had all this Waterford crystal I had to find a home for Luckily I did. There was some furniture. There was this table I loved. I had no room for it. I tried to give it away. Nobody wanted it. That one to charity. I don't know how you're getting people to take bedpands. I'm sorry. Those are your five good news stories for today. If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it too.
