Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm shoinning Mack with five good news stories. Caps off to the copywriter at NBC. I'm not gonna do any better than they did, so let me just read it. They wrote. It wasn't a born burner by any accounts, but there was a brief scare when a fire alarm was pulled out a farm in Westchester, but no fire was found. Turns out it was just some horse play. The fire department showed up, there was no fire. There was no human that pulled the fire alarm. The only one close to the fire alarm, Jack's the horse. Authorities believe Jack's reached out of his stall and bit down on the alarm. Jacks the horse was warned, don't horse him around. In the future, I love it. Nice job by PBS Kids. They have now made programs available in American sign language. The sixth series that offer ASL integrations are Arthur Alma's Way and Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, Donkey Hody, Work It Out, Wombats and pink a Lish and Peterrific. Each future ten episodes dubbed into ASL. PBS Kids already offers close captioning on its broadcasts, as well as games that feature way for neurodiverse kids to turn down the background noise so it's less distracting. The brand has also experimented with color contrast to make sure kids who are visually impaired or able to view everything on the screen that's awesome really well thought out too. Sarah de Witt, Senior vice president for PBS Kids, said, we were trying to work out what was the most effective way to integrate this type of interpretation for a preschooler who can't use the captions because they can't read, and they're trying and engage with these characters in the same way other kids would. They worked hard to figure out the ideal placement of the ASL interpreter on the screen. They wanted to not have an interpreter box in the corner. One of the executives said, we heard very clearly in our feedback from these families that they didn't want to be relegated to the corner. Dwitt said, we're starting with these sixty episodes, which was a pretty big chunk, and then we'll go to see how kids can engage with the different approaches with the different shows. To make sure, it's resonating. Our hope would be that we can continue to work with these organizations that expand beyond this. The NFL Draft is over, but the materials from the stage are being put to good use. Turf, fencing, set pieces and other materials used for the draft are being donated to local nonprofits including Now this copy cracks me up. The copy reads including Detroit Dog Rescue a Detroit dog rescue. Thanks for clearing that up. Although Detroit Dog Rescue would be an awesome name for a bar, come to think of it. The materials being donated or helping Detroit Dog Rescue, which is a Detroit Dog Rescue builds a shelter, backyard and decompression areas good news. If you want to get flies out of your house, I've been dealing with that all week. I let the dog out and a fly comes in, and then I have to My trick is I turn all the lights off in the house and I open the back door, and I hope the fly goes. Oh, it's brighter out there and leaves doesn't always work. The other day I swapped a fly for a hornet. True a story. An expert has shared a hack to instantly deter flies from your home. What do you do? All right? I gotta read this. The article's scaring the heck out of me, pointing out that besides just being annoying, flies can spread salmonella, typhoid, and E. Coli. So you got to get rid of the flies. Yeah, the expert tells us anything that contains essential oils, such as lemon grass or peppermint will keep the flies at bay. The fragrances give off a strong smell that deters flies from entering your house. So all I have to do is get some peppermint. That's cool. Good news if you like to tech no party on a train. The Nuremberg at nightclub House thirty three runs the Techno train twice a year. There's only two stops, the start and the finish. They depart Nuremberg at four pm. They go about one hundred kilometers west, then they loop back and gets back to Nuremberg at eleven pm. The train has twelve cars, three of which are dance rooms with DJ decks, speakers and bars. About twenty five DJs perform throughout the Bavarian countryside. There's about seven hundred tickets available for each journey. They sail out in seconds, despite the train having no marketing beyond social media and of course this very huge podcast. Tim the DJ says, you can't get rich from this permission to get on the tracks. It's expensive. We're lucky to have the hype on Instagram and TikTok and five good news stories. When you don't have this, you're going bankrupt. Transport rules dictate there must be at least one seat per passenger. There's a chill out area. It's one of the few cars that doesn't have speakers, and you can't smoke in it. A pro tip from Vincent, who's described as a smiley twenty two year old with a shaved head and mirriage sunglasses. Vincent says, don't stay in one place, travel up and down the train, and use the toilets early. They get unpleasant. Those are five good news stories for today. If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it, they might like it too. And bonus good news.
