1
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:10,279
The Shark deck. I'm Johnny Mack
with five good news stories. Angela and

2
00:00:10,359 --> 00:00:13,640
Steve. Good news you guys who
won the lottery. They didn't even realize

3
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:18,280
it. They matched all five numbers
and he Set for Life drawing. Angela

4
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,239
popped in for some groceries and was
like, hey, can you check my

5
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,480
ticket? And then there was a
problem when they ran it through the machine

6
00:00:24,879 --> 00:00:27,640
because they won the big prize.
She said, every Sunday I buy my

7
00:00:27,679 --> 00:00:30,640
Set for Life tickets for the coming
week and normally get both checked at the

8
00:00:30,719 --> 00:00:33,039
end of the week in the shop. I never checked the numbers online.

9
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,640
Unusually this week I went into the
co op on Tuesday and asked the lady

10
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,039
to check the numbers from the Monday
night draw. She had a puzzled look

11
00:00:39,079 --> 00:00:42,000
on her face and she stared at
the National Lottery terminal and asked for her

12
00:00:42,039 --> 00:00:44,439
colleague to take a look. I'm
starting to get nervous or worried there was

13
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,759
a problem. This was not helped
by the large line behind me. The

14
00:00:47,799 --> 00:00:50,759
shop is sit and said, I
can't pay out over one hundred pounds.

15
00:00:50,799 --> 00:00:53,759
You should go to the National Lottery
line and claim my prize. I didn't

16
00:00:53,759 --> 00:00:56,479
even ask how much. I just
went back to my car and drove home.

17
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,119
I got home, Steve opened the
door immediately asked me, what is

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,039
wrong. I didn't look like my
normal self. She told him the story,

19
00:01:03,119 --> 00:01:04,319
and then they called the number on
the back of the ticket. The

20
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:08,200
guy at the National Lottery told me
you won. I didn't sleep for days.

21
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,400
I was nervous. Was still a
dream. Was just amazing when everything

22
00:01:11,439 --> 00:01:15,239
was confirmed. I'm not really into
material things, but this fabulous win will

23
00:01:15,239 --> 00:01:18,920
help Steve and I enjoy life to
the full. We're both are tired.

24
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,280
We have the time, so I
want to go on a cruise, and

25
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,000
now she can garden more. I
love my garden. It's an oasis.

26
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,439
It's a very special place for me. So I think I'll treat myself to

27
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:30,959
some more plants. Two year old
Juliana is friends with a tree frog.

28
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,640
They were selling a white tree frog
in a Panama City, Florida store.

29
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:37,920
That's a whole other topic. What
are you doing, Panama City stores?

30
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,959
Why are we selling tree frogs?
Lead the tree frogs alone? The two

31
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,920
year old asked us she could take
the tree frog home. Mom said I

32
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:47,959
couldn't say no. They adopted the
frog in August. Mom says he just

33
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,799
crawls to the top of her shoulder
and they walk around together. He manages

34
00:01:49,879 --> 00:01:53,480
us to hang on somehow. George
the tree frog sleeps in a cage in

35
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,959
Julianna's room. Mom says he's the
first thing she asked about when she wakes

36
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,599
up. When they leave the house, she says, bye, bye,

37
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,200
baby frog. I'll be back.
Mom said, I'd definitely recommend getting a

38
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,319
pet frog. He's just a happy
fellow. Well, good news if you've

39
00:02:06,319 --> 00:02:09,680
been bitten by a snake. A
bike courier service in southern China, they'll

40
00:02:09,719 --> 00:02:14,360
deliver your anti venom on time.
A bike courier in southern China got an

41
00:02:14,439 --> 00:02:20,599
unusual order. A customer requested anti
venom for urgent delivery. The courier picked

42
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,639
up the order and said, sure, no problem at all. The order

43
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,639
requested that the courier collect the drugs
from a pharmaceutical store in a downtown area

44
00:02:27,759 --> 00:02:30,159
deliver them to a small clinic in
the nearby countryside that had run out of

45
00:02:30,159 --> 00:02:34,960
snake anti venom. The courier noticed
his reply hadn't been read. He texted

46
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,599
again, are he's still alive?
He's still alive? I'm passing the number

47
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:39,879
one middle school. Now hang in
there. The courier made the five kilometer

48
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,599
journey in twenty minutes. Normally that
would take more than half an hour.

49
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,719
When he arrived, I saw the
customer, a woman in her twenties.

50
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:54,919
Sure looked fine, so I felt
relieved. I am Patty Callahan, Henry,

51
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,680
I am Mary, Kay Andrews,
I'm Kristin Harmel, and I'm Christie.

52
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,280
What's Harvey? Friends of Fiction is

You can listen to friends and fiction

64
00:04:01,199 --> 00:04:04,280
good news if your microwave is dirty, because if it is, he probably

65
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,240
live at my house. You want
to get rid of those leftover stains.

66
00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:11,400
No, this isn't a commercial.
It's just a quirky story ball. Say

67
00:04:11,479 --> 00:04:14,800
what you do. It's take a
bowl of warm water, would slice lemon,

68
00:04:15,159 --> 00:04:16,680
You put it on for about a
minute, then you wipe the microwave

69
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,399
when you're done. People on the
internet, we're talking about this. Somebody

70
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:21,839
wrote, my friend puts lemon juice
in a dish, puts in a microwave,

71
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,160
turns on two minutes, wipes out
with nice soapy water. So simple.

72
00:04:26,199 --> 00:04:30,000
I was amazed. Another social media
user said, half a lemon in

73
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,800
a jug of hot water for five
minutes, don't open the door, leave

74
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,800
it in there for a few minutes, then open the door. I might

75
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,199
have to try that. Maybe I
have some sauce stains in the back of

76
00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:44,000
my microwave. Don't judge and be
careful whose mailbox he messed with. A

77
00:04:44,079 --> 00:04:46,920
man went on Reddit to show how
he got revenge on the mindless vandals in

78
00:04:46,959 --> 00:04:51,000
his neighborhood. The vandals kept damaging
his mailbox. He'd come outside and find

79
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:56,360
a huge dent in his mailbox made
it hard to open. So what he

80
00:04:56,399 --> 00:05:00,199
did was he placed a tube inside
the mailbox, but then surrounded the space

81
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,800
around the tube with concrete to make
it almost impossible to dent. He shared

82
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,720
his revenge on Reddit, saying,
let's see how you little punk smash my

83
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,600
mailbox now. One user pointed out, you can see the concrete is crack

84
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,360
next to the dent. It seems
like they tried at least one more time.

85
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,879
Another user said, I hit some
mailboxes in high school. I got

86
00:05:17,879 --> 00:05:21,639
community service and wrote letters of apology. Still feel bad about it. One

87
00:05:21,639 --> 00:05:26,319
more user added, one swift hit
with a baseball bat auto break it the

88
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,560
batter's hand, that is, don't
smash mailboxes that you're five new stories for
