The Polar Bear's 16th Birthday Party

0:03 Caalaroga Shark Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with five good news stories. Three cheers for the bus driver and three more for two siblings who were being praised for quick thinking after the school bus driver had a medical emergency. Surveillance footage showed that eight year old Katrina was sitting near the driver the driver began struggling to breathe. Katrina asked the driver you okay. The driver shook her head no. Katrina ran to the back of the bus and got help from her older brother, Charlie. He's in seventh grade. Charlie rushed to the front of the bus and used the radio to contact the school. Another student CALLI called nine to one one to report the emergency. The driver was taken to the hospital, later discharged. ABC News said the driver had previously taught her writers how to use the bus radio in case of an emergency. Good news for Fiona the Sheep, Fiona once called up Britain's loneliest sheep, is now pregnant with twins. Back in in twenty twenty three, you may recall this story. Fiona was discovered living alone for at least two years on a narrow ledge in the Scottish Highlands. She was rescued by local farmers and rehomed at Dallascone Farm Fun where she joined a flock and got proper care. They cleaned her up, she had years of overgrown wool and was given a vet treatment.

1:20 She gradually adjusted to life with the other sheep. Now apparently one of the other sheep really likes Fiona because Fiona is expecting twins. Meanwhile, an Ontario wildlife refuge celebrated a Sweet sixteen party for Ganuka the polar bear. For Ganuk sixteen, Ganuka got a toy car filled with tropical fruit, a pumpkin based birthday cake, and wrapped gift boxes packed with snacks. The zoo keepers even made an oversized Ontario driver's license for the bear, which the bear quickly shredded. The habitat manager Amy explained that sixteen is a significant age for polar bears in the wild, especially for males. It'd be nearing the end in human care. Would any food and vet support. Polar bear is often living to their early to mid twenties. The polar bear would probably like this. Next event, a coastal Washington community, you try to make the record book after nearly five thousand people plunged into icy water at the same time. It was an attempt at the largest Polar Bear dip. The previous record was thirty one hundred and thirty four participants set in December. For this one, Pacific Multi Sports officially counted forty nine hundred and seventeen participants. Guinness is reviewing the final numbers due to quote counting complications. You see, some people entered the area without being properly scanned, making it hard to get a proper count. To qualify, participants had to wear only swimsuits and shoes, no wet suits, no cold weather gear, and you had to remain in the water for at least six minutes. Yikes. If you like

2:51 the show and you want to support it, and you're like, yeah, you know, I love the show, but those ads, John, come on, I get it, I get it. Have you seen my heating bill this winter? That's what you could do is you go to Apple Podcast. There's a banner there it says uninterrupted listening long term for five bucks a month. You'll get the show commercial free, and you'll get this show and a bunch of others on the channel, including Daily comedy news which I host. In the short run, it comes with a thirty day free trial, so why not try it out and the ads go away, and someday it'll be summer and I won't be freezing anymore. A British transit operator has shared a look at the strangest items left behind on the bus. The Oxford Bus Company said they had forty three hundred and eighty seven lost and found items last year. About twenty three percent of them were returned to their owners. It's not just keys, phones, wallets, umbrellas.

3:37 It's a bag of rubber ducks, a box of Fortune cookies, an inflatable dinosaur costume, a bond side tree, a potato with googly eyes, a jar of pickled onions, a bicycle tire, a twenty two pound bag of rice, several nerf guns, had a yoga mat covered in inspirational quotes. They also shared a reminder of some things lost in previous years. Those included a suit case full of retro adult magazines. I guess no one wanted to claim those. A jar of raw chicken and I'm not commenting here, I'm just telling you what they said, a roll of Donald Trump themed toilet paper, and those are your fine the good news stories for today. You have an awesome day.
