The Giraffe and the Chiropractor

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.000
Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm
Johnny Mack with five good news stories.

2
00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:14.439
I'm laughing because after I record these
things, I have to save the file

3
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:20.600
and call it something. The episode
before this one GNS Cremation Teacher. It

4
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:25.120
just seems funny. And the episode
before that was GNS cheeseballs. All right,

5
00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:29.039
good news. A chiropractor has helped
out a giraffe. He didn't think

6
00:00:29.079 --> 00:00:31.679
I was gonna say giraffe. Well
maybe you did if you read the show

7
00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:36.600
description. The giraffe named Jerry as
an owner who noticed that Jerry the giraffe

8
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:42.079
was chewing abnormally. The owner called
the chiropractor. The chiropractor saw Jerry the

9
00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:45.920
giraffe and posted a video of the
adjustments. He made the video as a

10
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:50.399
master at like seven hundred thousand views. In the video, the chiropractor feels

11
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:55.000
Jerry the Giraffe's jaw and moves it
from side to side. The chiropractor told

12
00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:58.520
USA Today, I noticed this jaw
had more range of motion on one side

13
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:00.840
than the other side. I facilitated
that movement with an adjustment. Then I

14
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:04.159
went and I checked on his cervical
spine. When I found areas that didn't

15
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:07.599
move very well. I put a
little bit of motion into it. After

16
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:11.319
that little procedure there, Jerry,
the giraffe's joints moved a lot better.

17
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:15.760
The giraffe also wanted to be closer
to the chiropractor, who said he was

18
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:19.079
wanting to be closer to me.
He was putting his head on me.

19
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:22.159
He was wanting more attention, more
affection. Was like I was giving him

20
00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:25.120
a hug and he was like,
this is awesome. I love this story.

21
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:27.840
One TikTok user wrote, giraffe kisses. Who could ask for more?

22
00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:32.959
Fellas, write this one down if
your wife starts giving you a hard time,

23
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:37.959
come the fall. Research finds brain
benefits in watching sports. That's right,

24
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:42.519
when we're sitting there on Sundays from
like one pm Eastern to eleven pm

25
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:48.280
Eastern, we are benefiting our brains. Watching an athletic game activates brain reward

26
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:52.280
circuits. There's an even bigger boost
when viewing a game with a large crowd,

27
00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:55.560
says the scientists, as it fosters
a sense of community and belonging.

28
00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:00.159
Professor Shintaro Sato says for those seeking
to enhance their overall well being, regularly

29
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:05.879
watching sports, particularly popular ones such
as baseball or soccer can serve as an

30
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:10.120
effective remedy professor. You need to
baseball. It's not popular anymore. And

31
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:14.240
you left out the NFL. I
don't know about the stunny guys. A

32
00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:17.840
pair of climate solution firms have turned
on the largest CO two vacuum in the

33
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:23.280
world. The vacuum is capable of
sucking thousands of tons of carbon out of

34
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.319
the atmosphere. That's awesome. If
somebody can figure out that tech, that's

35
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:30.599
great. The ORCA facility is in
Iceland. It's run by carb Fix.

36
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:34.520
Carbon Fix says it can pull four
thousand tons of CO two out of the

37
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:38.199
atmosphere every year, the equivalent of
taking eight hundred and seventy cars off the

38
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:40.240
road. So we're gonna need tons
of these things. But it gets better.

39
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:45.159
That was the Orca. Now they
have the Mammoth plant that one can

40
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.759
suck thirty six thousand tons of carbon
out of the air every year. They

41
00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:51.479
didn't convert that to cars. I'll
let you guys do the math. But

42
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:55.319
it's more right more this is neat
because I really like nature. Developers had

43
00:02:55.360 --> 00:03:00.639
offered a Texas family millions for their
land. They decided they'd make it a

44
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:06.280
park. Fifteen thousand acres will become
a park in Travis County. Daniel tells

45
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:08.479
the story, this is the spot, This is where developers stood and said,

46
00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:12.199
we could put a lot of houses
on that hill over there. The

47
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:15.560
former cattle ranch, you know,
the one over on Highway seventy one in

48
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:19.240
western Travis County, about thirty minutes
west of downtown Austin, will become a

49
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:23.560
park where hikers can take in hill
country vistas and explore a tributary of Bee

50
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:27.960
Creek that spills over a series of
limestone ledges. The park is expected to

51
00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:31.800
open up the public sometime in twenty
twenty five or twenty twenty six. George

52
00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:35.719
and his wife bought the first part
of the ranch in the early seventies.

53
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.280
Over years, they added more land
until it reached nearly sixteen hundred acres.

54
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:44.280
They're now selling all but ninety acres
of that land to Travis County for ninety

55
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.960
million dollars, nearly thirty million dollars
less than it's a praise value and far

56
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:53.159
below the one hundred and thirty million
that developers had offered. You know,

57
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:54.240
you can sit here and be like, well, that's a lot of money,

58
00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:57.599
but it could have been a lot
of money. And now to be

59
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:00.280
a park, I think that's awesome. Well here's another one of those.

60
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:02.639
Hey, John, I thought it
was five good news stories, and it's

61
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:06.039
actually four good news stories and a
story just to make you laugh. I

62
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:11.479
know. Again, the whole premise
of this program is to make you have

63
00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:14.439
a happy day. I'm just trying
to brighten your day. That's why there's

64
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:16.079
not bad news. Well you know
what I mean. Sometimes the guy get

65
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:18.240
his card towed away the other day. Maybe that was bad news for him.

66
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:20.439
But you know, I'm just trying
to make you smile, so I

67
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:24.240
will share with you. I'm not
sure what you could do with this information,

68
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:29.680
but it's funny. A Chinese zoo
is being criticized online after visitors complained

69
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:33.240
about the pandas. All right,
what's wrong with the pandas well? They're

70
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:39.680
not so much pandas as they are
painted chow chow dogs. Visitors to the

71
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:45.199
Taijaw Zoo said they were surprised to
discover the so called panda dogs that went

72
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:48.800
on display at the beginning of May
are dogs with their fur trimmed and died

73
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:55.720
to closely resemble Chinese bears. A
zoo spokesperson explain that the zoo put the

74
00:04:55.759 --> 00:05:00.839
dogs on display because it doesn't have
any pandas. Yeah, so I don't

75
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:05.199
have a lion. I'm not advertising
come to John Safari. Oh no,

76
00:05:05.279 --> 00:05:09.439
that's not a lion. That's my
golden retriever. But you know whatever,

77
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:11.959
I don't have a lion. What
do you want me to do? The

78
00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:15.360
spokesperson denied the fur dying process was
in any way dangerous or harmful to the

79
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:20.399
canines. A zoo employee told state
run media that the panda dogs aren't meant

80
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:26.480
to be deceptive. A signage posted
at the enclosure clearly explains they are chow

81
00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:30.240
Chow's in disguise, and those are
your five good news stories for today.

82
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:31.680
