00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 1: Kalioka Shock Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny mag with five

2
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,240
good new stories. A dad has turned his deliberately terrible

3
00:00:13,359 --> 00:00:16,559
artwork into a thriving side business. He's even earned thousands

4
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,079
of dollars. Jamie first created one of his now signature

5
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,399
paintings as a joke if for his wife in twenty

6
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,199
twenty four. She shared it on social media. The response

7
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,839
was huge. Viewers were drawn to the intentionally clumsy style.

8
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,719
He explained. Most people respond with joy and laughter in

9
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,719
my paintings, which is why it's been so fun, because

10
00:00:33,759 --> 00:00:35,640
they absolutely get it. I didn't expect it to be

11
00:00:35,679 --> 00:00:37,479
a big part of my life, but sometimes I spend

12
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,320
more time painting than I do on my actual full

13
00:00:39,359 --> 00:00:42,560
time job. Each painting takes roughly forty five minutes to

14
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,960
an hour to complete, depending on the number of people

15
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,840
in the painting. At peak demand, he was painting up

16
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,560
to five hours a day, including a stretch in January

17
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,560
when he received one hundred and thirty orders in a

18
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,320
single month. These paintings are going for sixty bucks. More

19
00:00:56,359 --> 00:00:59,799
complex pieces sell for several hundred dollars. He's used the

20
00:00:59,799 --> 00:01:02,039
money to fix up the house, including a new garden.

21
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,719
Jamie says, my kids say the paintings are terrible. You know,

22
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,959
kids are like they speak the truth, but deep down

23
00:01:08,079 --> 00:01:10,319
I know they love it. It's colorful and it's fun.

24
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,680
Recently he painted Judy Ditch. Judy Ditch signed the painting

25
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,359
and donated it to auction. He explains, to have somebody

26
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,159
like Judy Dench look at a piece of my artwork

27
00:01:19,159 --> 00:01:22,200
and agree to sign it is absolutely insane. A hot

28
00:01:22,239 --> 00:01:25,760
air balloon was carrying thirteen passengers it made an unexpected

29
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:30,200
emergency landing in a California backyard. Hunters said he was

30
00:01:30,239 --> 00:01:32,599
watching TV around eight thirty in the morning. A neighbor

31
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,280
knocked on his door and said, hey, balloon. Hunter went outside,

32
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,760
he found a balloon filled with passengers in his yard

33
00:01:39,799 --> 00:01:42,480
to not notice. Video of the incident shows the balloon

34
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,280
to setting into the property, passengers calmly waving as a

35
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,040
touchdown among the trees. The pilot said shifting wind conditions

36
00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:52,680
forced the unplanned landing. Brianna was one of the passengers

37
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,840
and said the group had been celebrating an anniversary when

38
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,280
the pilot announced they needed a land due to low

39
00:01:57,319 --> 00:02:01,319
wind and a limited fuel. Despite it being an unusual location,

40
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:04,280
the landing was controlled and uneventful. The balloon was secured

41
00:02:04,319 --> 00:02:08,199
and removed, All passengers exited the basket, and you know

42
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,680
somebody had to be like, can I use your bathroom? Right? Yeah?

43
00:02:11,439 --> 00:02:15,360
Congratulations to the baron. The baron has set the record

44
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,439
for heaviest vehicle pulled by the nipples. This is for

45
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,080
that German TV show where they break world records with

46
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,039
this guy. He goes by the name of the Baron.

47
00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:27,800
He used body piercings attached to what he describes as

48
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,000
the world's strongest nipples to pull the carriage, beating the

49
00:02:32,039 --> 00:02:34,840
previous record of twy one hundred and seventy nine point

50
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,199
twenty seven pounds. The previous record had been set by

51
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,719
Sage who goes by the Great Nippolini. But let's not

52
00:02:40,719 --> 00:02:45,000
get into that. The new record and eighty four pounds. Now.

53
00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:47,360
To make sure that the carriage was heavy enough, a

54
00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:50,159
friend sat in the carriage to get some extra weight

55
00:02:50,159 --> 00:02:52,759
in there. Back in twenty thirteen, the Baron set the

56
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,280
Guinness record for heaviest weightlifted by the nipples when he

57
00:02:55,319 --> 00:02:57,520
lifted seventy one point eighty seven pounds and held it

58
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,159
for more than eight seconds, more than sixty five five

59
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,120
hundred volunteers have built over ten thousand beds in just

60
00:03:03,159 --> 00:03:05,919
twenty four hours for children in need across the US.

61
00:03:06,439 --> 00:03:08,960
The effort took place inside the Charlotte's A Convention Center,

62
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,719
North Carolina. Employees from LOWS worked alongside thousands of volunteers

63
00:03:12,719 --> 00:03:16,560
in support of Sleep and Heavenly Peace. Volunteers turned roughly

64
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,960
two hundred miles of raw lumber into ten twenty seven beds,

65
00:03:20,039 --> 00:03:23,080
using two thousand gallons of stain, more than seven hundred

66
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,759
and thirty thousand screws, and nearly eighteen thousand standing discs.

67
00:03:27,479 --> 00:03:29,719
Jenna works for Low's. She was there and said, I'm

68
00:03:29,719 --> 00:03:31,800
thinking about my own kids. I'm so fortunate to put

69
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,599
them in their own beds. I hope every child feels

70
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,080
as safe and comfortable as mine. The volunteers worked across

71
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,719
sixteen assembly lines, each handling a specific task including cutting, standing, assembling,

72
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,520
and finishing. Organizers say the goal is simple, give every

73
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,800
child a safe and comfortable place to sleep. If you

74
00:03:47,879 --> 00:03:51,439
are a longtime listener, you will remember this story. Here's

75
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:53,599
an Up to eight three people have been sentenced in

76
00:03:53,639 --> 00:03:57,280
California after staging a series of fake bear attacks on

77
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,680
luxury vehicles. Is this ringing a bell short version? So

78
00:04:00,719 --> 00:04:02,960
people were dressing up as bears and smashing in the

79
00:04:03,039 --> 00:04:07,319
cars and some hucksters. Apparently we're running an insurance fraud scheme.

80
00:04:07,879 --> 00:04:11,479
Three fake bears pleaded no contest to felony insurance fraud,

81
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,240
and they were each sentenced to one hundred and eighty

82
00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:16,639
days in jail. A fourth suspect is awaiting at preliminary hearing.

83
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,279
At the time of this recording. Authorities say the group

84
00:04:19,319 --> 00:04:22,959
submitted multiple insurance claims alleging that a bear had entered

85
00:04:22,959 --> 00:04:26,279
and damaged high end vehicles, including a Rolls Royce, Mercedes

86
00:04:26,319 --> 00:04:30,519
and a different Mercedes. Investigators had reviewed the video footage.

87
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,680
One investigator noted that bear appeared to move more like

88
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,519
a human than an animal, so they called it a

89
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,680
biologist from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife who

90
00:04:38,759 --> 00:04:41,439
was like, yeah, that's a human in a bear suit.

91
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,639
They started an investigation Operation bear Claw. There was also

92
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,120
a key flaw in the story, and this is important

93
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,199
if you want to run such a scam. Brown bears

94
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,959
have not been seen in California since the nineteen twenties,

95
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,000
so it was incredibly unlikely that a brown bear showed

96
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,079
up and started breaking into cars. Captain Hood, who led

97
00:04:59,079 --> 00:05:01,360
the investigation, said, I don't think we saw anything to

98
00:05:01,399 --> 00:05:03,199
the extent in the past where they got a bear suit.

99
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,240
This is unique. Those see five good news stories for today.

100
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:06,839
I have a good one.
