The Unbelievable KFC Scented Perfume AND A Cat's Incredible Journey in an Amazon Box

The Unbelievable KFC Scented Perfume AND A Cat's Incredible Journey in an Amazon Box

This script covers five unique good news stories ranging from a KFC scented perfume called Eau de BBQ, designed to evoke the smell and taste of barbecue, as part of a crispy chicken filet sandwich promotion, to the miraculous story of a cat accidentally shipped to California in an Amazon return box, who was eventually reunited with its owner. It also highlights an Earth Day initiative where over 13,000 ladybugs were released by students and teachers to learn about life cycles and the environment, the repatriation of a stolen ancient Egyptian statue fragment of Ramses II, and a couple living off-the-grid in the Louisiana swamp, embracing a life surrounded by nature and wildlife.

Caalaroga Shark Media. Hi, I'm
Johnny Mack with five good news stories.

2
00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:16.559
Good news. If you like the
smell of KFC, now you can smell

3
00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:20.280
like KFC yourself. This sounds like
an April Fool's joke, but it is

4
00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:25.640
not a KFC sent to perfume has
come out. It is the od BBQ.

5
00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:31.399
The fragrance promises a classic barbecue experience
in every bottle. The linearing bass

6
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:34.640
notes create a woody, earthy fountain
that promises to make your mouth water for

7
00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:38.000
the taste of barbecue. But number
eleven is more than a fragrance. It's

8
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:42.640
a celebration of flavor. This is
part of a promotion for a new Crispy

9
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:47.000
Chicken file at Sandwich. The promotion
around till June ninth, but after that

10
00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:51.960
the perfumes will never be sold again, so you might want to stock up.

11
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:57.280
All proceeds go to the KFC Foundation. Good News. A family has

12
00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:02.280
been reunited with their cat after the
cat was accidentally mailed hundreds of miles to

13
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:04.959
California with a package return Carrie,
the cat. Mom was looking for the

14
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:08.799
cat didn't find the cat. Apparently
the cat had jumped in an Amazon returned

15
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:12.640
box, Carrie says, Galiana loves
boxes, It's part of her personality.

16
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:17.959
Meanwhile, at Amazon, they opened
a box and found a cat. They

17
00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:22.120
scanned the cat's microchip, and they
found Carrie. Carrie said, I didn't

18
00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:25.000
believe the vet at first. I
thought it was a prank. Carrie had

19
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:26.920
a fly one thousand miles to California, had to get the cat. It

20
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.879
was an amazing reunion. Galiana instantly
stopped shaking and relaxed in my arms when

21
00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:34.640
I got to hold her again.
Luckily, for the cat, one of

22
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.239
the boxes seams had been open enough
to get air, and the weather conditions

23
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.480
meant that she hadn't been frozen or
overheated. Well, that's good good news

24
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:46.000
if you're a ladybug aficionado. In
celebration of Earth Day, recently, teachers

25
00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:52.400
and students at the Chesterbrook Academy released
over thirteen thousand ladybugs. The Academy's one

26
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:56.079
hundred and thirty students had been studying
life cycles, plant growth, and recycling.

27
00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:59.959
Principal Colleen says, we've also learned
about the importance of keeping our environment

28
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:02.680
clean through neighborhood walks. Additionally,
we've observed the life cycles of ants and

29
00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:07.599
praying mantis by observing them as they
grow in their habitats. Once they mature,

30
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:10.159
we let them go to move into
their new homes out in nature.

31
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:15.840
In Egypt, a statue fragment of
the Great Pharaoh Ramses the Second has been

32
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:20.800
recovered and repatriated to Egypt. The
statue was carved thirty four hundred years ago,

33
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:23.879
stolen from the Temple of Ramses in
the southern Egyptian site of Abydos over

34
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:28.360
thirty years ago. It's now in
the possession of the Ministry of Tourism and

35
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:31.120
Antiques in Cairo, where it's being
restored. The head is part of a

36
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:36.400
group of statues depicting King Ramses,
seated alongside a number of Egyptian deities.

37
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:40.400
Ramses the Second lived until age ninety
one, back in a time when people

38
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:46.319
lived to be around forty Good news
if you like giant rats for dinner.

39
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:50.159
Yeah, a couple have decided to
live off the grid. They're living in

40
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:53.639
a swamp. They shower in murky
water, they eat rodents for dinner,

41
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:55.759
and they're not afraid to swim near
alligators. This is not for me.

42
00:02:55.800 --> 00:03:00.319
I'll tell you that Tara and Keith
have a remote home in the Louisiana marshland.

43
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:02.960
They shoot and cook wildlife for dinner. They spend their days fishing.

44
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:07.319
They hose themselves down with murky water
for a shower. They see snakes and

45
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:10.919
alligators everywhere. The area is sower
mode. It cannot be accessed by cars.

46
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:15.360
Tara said, a lot of people
when they think Louisiana automatically think New

47
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:17.159
Orleans, Bourbon Street, stuff like
that. And we have this whole other

48
00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:21.360
world out here that we enjoy.
We don't even have a fast food restaurant.

49
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:23.840
We don't have a stoplight. They
have a YouTube channel where they filmed

50
00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:29.240
a typical day in the life of
the swamp. The boathouse has a bathroom

51
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:31.800
with a toilet, but no bathrooms
shower, so they hose themselves down outside

52
00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:37.080
on the back porch. Tara says, we shower with bayou water, but

53
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:40.240
she added, don't drink the water. No details on the rats other than

54
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:44.240
in the headline. And those are
your five good news stories for today.
