Listen in as we bring you a fun-filled episode full of good news!

We kick things off with Richard Shelton, a lifelong fan of The Price is Right, who won a trip to Switzerland on the show and brought along the game show's character, Yodely Guy. Hear how Richard, a Price is Right expert, navigated the Cliffhangers game and made his childhood dream come true.

But the good news doesn't stop there. We've also got an inspiring story about Joe, a 13-year-old boy known as Doodle Boy, who's landed a deal with Nike thanks to his creativity.

Discover the intriguing find a family in Norway stumbled upon in their garden using their metal detector, and hear about the unique surgery performed on Joey, an 82-year-old tortoise with a bladder stone.

Lastly, we debunk a bizarre report about the Beacon Theater in New York City's dress code.

1
00:00:02.560 --> 00:00:09.240
The Shark Deck. I'm Jenny Mack
with five good news stories. Hey,

2
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:13.320
good news. If you're the Yodeley
guy from The Price Is Right? You

3
00:00:13.400 --> 00:00:18.399
finally got to go to Switzerland.
Richard Shelton, come on down. Richard

4
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:21.280
said, my dad would always watch
The Prices Right every morning when I was

5
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:24.640
home before school. So I guess
I was just amazed by the lights and

6
00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:27.719
the colors and the sounds and the
fact that people were happy and winning.

7
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:32.159
Is there a West Coast feed of
The Price Is Right? Because it airs

8
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:34.920
at eleven am Eastern? And if
this was before school, what time are

9
00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:37.960
you going to school? But I
digress. I'm just really thrown by that.

10
00:00:38.759 --> 00:00:41.240
Richard said, I grew to watch
it over time and kept watching it.

11
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:44.399
Maybe dad DVRs the show and watches
at seven am. Okay, that

12
00:00:44.479 --> 00:00:47.560
makes sense. Oh no, Richard's
from Long Island. Dad must definitely DVR

13
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:54.240
the show anyway. Richard Shelton recently
brought Hans aka Yodeley Guy along on his

14
00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:57.960
trip to Switzerland. Shelton won the
trip on The Prices Right and Yodeley Guys,

15
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:00.880
you know as a character on the
game shows classic pricing game called The

16
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:03.680
Cliffhangers Shelton's one of those prices right
experts. He said, I know a

17
00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:07.120
lot of secret things about the show, like how to play the games,

18
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:08.680
and I know the themes of the
games are always the same whether he watched

19
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:11.400
them tomorrow the next day. There's
a lot of trends that they use that

20
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:15.359
people watch the show would catch on
to. Shelton played the second game on

21
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:19.599
the show and had to guess the
price of a Gucci carry on and fanny

22
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:23.439
pack. He bid twenty seven hundred
dollars. That was the high bid.

23
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.159
He got on stage with Drew the
announcer said, he's playing for Yodly guys.

24
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:33.040
Favorite place to visit Switzerland. The
game Cliffhangers. Here are the rules

25
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:37.079
of Cliffhangers. The contestant bids on
three small prizes for every dollar the contestant

26
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:40.200
is away from the actual prices.
A mountain climber takes one step up a

27
00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:42.400
mountain. If the mountain climber does
not exceed twenty five steps, then the

28
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:47.359
contestant wins a bonus prize. Now
Shelton knew some of the tricks. He

29
00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:51.680
explained how different items on cliffhangers typically
increased from twenty to forty dollars. Based

30
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:55.400
on levels in the game, he
guessed the exact price of the first prize.

31
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:57.319
He was five dollars over on the
second and only two dollars away from

32
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:01.200
the third. Yodeli Guys Stop Moving. Shelton had officially won the game.

33
00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:06.799
They let Shelton take Yodeley Guy home. Yodaly Guy was photographed around different parts

34
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:10.560
of Switzerland. One image was shared
by the prices Right Instagram account. Good

35
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:15.680
news for Joe. He's thirteen and
he was told he was doodling in school

36
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:20.120
too much. Well, Nike disagrees
Joe was drawing so much he was known

37
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:23.360
as doodle Boy. Joe says,
I started dueling when I was six or

38
00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:24.800
seven. I wanted to change my
style. It's worked out really well.

39
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:27.960
When I'm angry, I go to
my room and I start doodling. It

40
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:30.879
makes me feel happy. It's also
one of the most relaxing things I do.

41
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:35.120
Well. It landed him a deal
with Nike. Nike's trying to encourage

42
00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.919
children to be more creative. Joe
said, it's one of my dreams.

43
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:40.719
Nike is such a big thing and
there'll be loads of fun stuff coming up

44
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:44.400
soon that I'm really excited for I
just keep telling myself, do what you

45
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:47.520
love, Do what you love.
Doodle Hey. Good news for a family

46
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:52.560
in Norway. They found the lost
gold earring they were searching for in their

47
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:58.159
garden with their metal detector. Oh
they also found one thousand year old artifacts.

48
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:00.960
They stumbled upon a bullsh shape buckle
and another item that appeared to be

49
00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:06.400
part of a Viking erab burial.
Experts believe the two metal artifacts were used

50
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:09.280
in a woman's burial from the ninth
century. Had good news for Joey,

51
00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:14.960
the eighty two year old tortoise.
Joey has had a bladderstone the size of

52
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:19.840
a cricket ball removed Yikes. Two
veterinary surgeons had to cut through Joey's shell

53
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:22.599
to remove the growth. One of
the vets said, given the size of

54
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:24.159
the stone, it was unique.
If Joey was a human, it would

55
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:29.439
be like having a bladderstone the size
of a basketball. Might take up for

56
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:32.840
a year for Joey's shell to heal. The vets had to create a fiberglass

57
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:37.599
and ros and glue to hold together
the shell after the surgery. One of

58
00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:39.759
the surgeons said tortoises are a very
tough species. They don't let you know

59
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:43.960
what is wrong. Still, it's
really bad. Joey had only been acting

60
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:46.000
unusually in the last few weeks before
the surgery, and even then she was

61
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:50.199
just eating less and moving less.
She had been very lethargic, eating less

62
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:53.599
and generally not happy. But thankfully
she is very caring. Owners who noticed

63
00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:57.479
something was wrong, eventually we did
an X ray. Luckily, bladderstones show

64
00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:03.400
up on tortoise X rays and good
news. Contrary to a report, you

65
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:08.639
are allowed to wear clothing at the
Beacon Theater in New York City. The

66
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:13.080
Beacon put up a sign forbidding twenty
items not allowed in the theater, including

67
00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:17.959
cowbells, hoverboards, bats, clubs, and clothing. Median christ to Stefano

68
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:21.439
joked, clothing. I hope they
have plastic covers for the seats. This

69
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:25.000
is a real thing. I saw
the picture in the New York Post.

70
00:04:25.319 --> 00:04:28.480
They had all the items there,
you know, guns and recording devices and

71
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:30.759
whatnot, and one of the things
was an icon of what looked to me

72
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:34.199
to be a T shirt and it
said clothing. To Stefano joked, I

73
00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:40.079
have shows at Radio City and Madison
Square Garden. We're allowing clothes and cowbells.

74
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:44.959
A spokesperson for MSG Entertainment Corporation,
which owns the Beacon Theater, thank

75
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.160
the New York Posts for bringing to
their attention. They said they'll be fixing

76
00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:51.120
the sign. A spokesperson said,
Wow, that was clearly a mistake.

77
00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:58.439
Clothing is definitely permitted. Who that's
your five good news stories for today?

78
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:00.360
Oh, that was a fun one. And follow the show for free on
