0:03 Caalaroga Shark Media. Hi there, I'm hunning back with fine good news stories and good news. If you're on your way to the cold Play concert, you see Chris Martin. He's the singer for cold Play. He was on his way to a cold Play concert, which is good because if you go to a cold Play concert, you kind of want the singer to be there. Anyway, he was at Radio one's big weekend music festival. He's on his way. He's in his black Mercedes, and he saw a woman leaning against a fence. Sandre is sixty four and suffers from what she calls a dodgy right hip. She was walking to the box office for an accessibility ticket. She decided to rest for a moment. Then a Mercedes pulls up and says, Hey, do you want to get in? She tells the BBC.

0:46 The door opens and I say, oh, that's Chris Martin. I can't get in with him. But she got in why wouldn't you? And they really hit it off. She said they were chatting like two old ladies. When they got to the arena. Martin shure there was a golf cart found to take Glenn to the box office. Hey, good news, if you like salty taste, but not any of that sodium. Japanese beverage maker Kieran Holdings is selling listen to this an electrified spoon. Now that scares me. Electricity plus metal plus my mouth. I'm a little worried, but I'll hear you out. Researchers say the electrified spoon enhances salty tastes without added sodium. The electric salt spoon uses a weak electric field to concentrate sodium ions on the tongue, increasing perceived saltiness. That was just a fun sentence to say.

1:33 This could be helpful for people who love salty foods, but gotta watch the blood pressure. Right. We'll keep an eye on that story. Good news if you're a white rhino, you and nineteen hundred and ninety nine friends are being rewilded into secure, protected areas in Africa over the next ten years. Forty white rhinos already on their way to their new home at the Mooniwana Conservancy in South Africa. It's a continent wide effort organized by a group called African Parks. The movement is called a Rhino rewild. They have acquired two thousand Southern white rhinos that had been privately owned by a multi millionaire who dreamed of keeping them in a preserve for the purpose of harvesting their horns to flood the illegal rhino horn trade. Yikes. The Southern white rhino had reached an all time low of between listen to this number thirty to forty animals back in the nineteen thirties. Conservation measures have increased the population to approximately twenty thousand by twenty twelve. Not an awesome number, but a lot better than thirty.

2:31 Right, kgo caught up with Pete. Pete is eighty eight years old. He heads out to the trails every day with a goal of seven thousand steps. He says, as age has gotten to me. I've gone from marathons down to this, walking two miles a day. Let me tell you my favorite expression, and it's I'd rather wear out than rust out. That's been my mottol all these years. I'll keep going as long as I can. Does he get to his seven thousand steps and he was looking at his trekker He got to twelve thousand. All right, whack story from USA today. Vincent went out to get a pizza, all right, grabs the pizza, hops into his car, drives off, and then he notices the dog wants some of the pizza. All right, pretty common story. I have a dog. Dogs like pizza, totally get it. Oh wait, it's not his dog. You know why it's not his dog. It's not his car.

3:20 He thought he got in his red Honda CRV, but no, he got in your red Honda CRV. He said, this is why you should not leave a keyfob in your car, because I got in with my pizza and then I got the bleep scared out of me by this dog. It's not my dog or not my car, he recounts the story. So I was backing out and turning and hitting the blinker towards my ex wife's apartment. I had a sensation there was something in the back. I thought to myself, did I load my dog Panda? When I looked over my shoulder and I saw the look on the dog was surreal because I also had an English Lab that looked like that. But then I noticed the keyfob in the center console, which explained everything. So he brings the car and the dog back, and as USA today tells us, he didn't go back in to tell the kai he had just driven his car, so the lesson don't leave your keyfob in the car. And those are your five good news stories for today.
