1 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:09,519 Speaker 1: Kalaroga Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with five 2 00:00:09,519 --> 00:00:12,679 good news stories. A donkey charity has named a donkey 3 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:17,359 after Ricky Gervais. Why Ricky donated one hundred thousand pounds 4 00:00:17,399 --> 00:00:20,359 to help them with their work. Safe Haven for Donkeys 5 00:00:20,879 --> 00:00:23,519 was one of twenty two animal charities to benefit from 6 00:00:23,559 --> 00:00:25,199 a share of two and a half million pounds that 7 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,679 Ricky Gervais has donated. The charity cares for donkeys in Israel, 8 00:00:28,719 --> 00:00:31,559 West Bank, Gozen parts of Egypt. They've been treating thousands 9 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,320 of donkeys in the Gaza Strip, where a lack of 10 00:00:33,359 --> 00:00:35,439 fuel has forced people to rely on them as their 11 00:00:35,439 --> 00:00:39,679 main form of transport. Tiny foal named Jervase was born 12 00:00:39,719 --> 00:00:43,000 at the charity sanctuary in Israel. Her mother, Deborah, had 13 00:00:43,039 --> 00:00:46,320 been found abandoned in the desert. Deborah was around seven 14 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,159 months pregnant and had no one to care for her. 15 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,759 A local woman contacted Safe Haven for Donkeys after finding 16 00:00:51,799 --> 00:00:55,719 Debor near her home. That same evening, Debra was transported 17 00:00:55,719 --> 00:00:58,880 to Safe Haven's sanctuary in Israel. Andy Is the chief 18 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,399 executive for Safe Hay for Donkeys and said when Deborah 19 00:01:01,439 --> 00:01:03,159 arrived she was heavily pregnant and had no one to 20 00:01:03,159 --> 00:01:04,879 care for her. To see her now safe and calm 21 00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:08,040 with her fall beside her is incredibly moving. Gervais is 22 00:01:08,079 --> 00:01:10,200 full of life and already showing off her first teeth. 23 00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:12,920 Do you like McDonald's I know not everyone does. I'm 24 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,719 a big McDonald's fan because anytime I go to Europe, 25 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,359 I get thirsty, and in Europe it's hard to find 26 00:01:18,519 --> 00:01:21,359 either a cold drink or a big drink, and McDonald's 27 00:01:21,359 --> 00:01:24,359 will sell you both. So I'm a big European McDonald's fan. 28 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,640 Emily has worked at two separate McDonald's and she has 29 00:01:28,719 --> 00:01:32,079 answered some of the questions. The big question, should you 30 00:01:32,159 --> 00:01:34,159 go in or should you go to the drive through? 31 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,760 Which is actually faster? Emily says the drive through is 32 00:01:37,879 --> 00:01:40,760 actually faster because it operates on a timer system that 33 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,799 tracks how long it takes from the moment your car 34 00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:45,120 pulls up to the speaker to the moment you drive 35 00:01:45,159 --> 00:01:49,000 away with your food. They also post the results inside, 36 00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:51,319 and she says we would make this a sport to 37 00:01:51,359 --> 00:01:53,879 try to get the number down so people tend to 38 00:01:53,879 --> 00:01:56,640 care more about the drive through. Interesting if he also 39 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,439 has a hack if you want a big Mac without 40 00:01:58,439 --> 00:02:00,799 the Big Mac price, she says, Order a double cheeseburger 41 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,599 and ask them to dress it like a big Mac. 42 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,120 That means big Mac sauce. Let us the works. All 43 00:02:05,159 --> 00:02:07,400 the additions like let us in Big Mac Sauce are free, 44 00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:09,080 so you get the same amount of meat and it's 45 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,719 half the price. Good hack there. Also, if you'd like 46 00:02:11,759 --> 00:02:15,520 free hash browns, she says, walk into a McDonald's kind 47 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,840 of as they're wrapping up the breakfast menu around eleven 48 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,000 in the morning. Some locations will give away the leftover 49 00:02:21,039 --> 00:02:23,159 hash browns rather than throw them out. You just have 50 00:02:23,199 --> 00:02:25,719 to ask nicely. I'll give you that same note at 51 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,599 Dunkin Donuts in the evening. Sometimes when they're wrapping up 52 00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:31,199 for the night, they'll give you some extra donuts if 53 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,280 you buy one right. Here's a job professional line stander. 54 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,639 Inner They call it a professional cuer. But you know 55 00:02:38,719 --> 00:02:41,199 a guy who stands in line. He's AJ. He's twenty 56 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,039 three years old. He gets paid to stand in line 57 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,360 for other people, concert tickets, product launches, pop up stores, 58 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,520 grand openings. If there's a line, AJ will stand in it, 59 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,759 he says. I will cue for absolutely anything. For his 60 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,680 first job, he showed up at eight pm for a 61 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,560 nine am store opening, and found one hundred people already 62 00:02:58,599 --> 00:03:01,599 in line and anything with them. No food, no water, 63 00:03:01,719 --> 00:03:03,919 no coat. He had a small folding chair and that 64 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,439 was it. He ended up ordering a pizza, but he 65 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,080 loves it. He says. Instead of dreading thirteen hours of 66 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,039 standing around, I ended up playing games with people like 67 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,400 charades and heads up. I realized how terrible I was 68 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,560 a general trivia. It was good. It was quite exciting. 69 00:03:17,039 --> 00:03:20,199 Now he got tips from regulars who showed up in 70 00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:22,960 pajamas and sleeping bags. He said, it's like a whole 71 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,919 living room setup. It's pretty crazy. So these days he's 72 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,800 more prepared, better chair, sleeping, mad food, drinks. The works 73 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,000 charges around two hundred and fifty pounds and says two 74 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,840 point fifty for essentially not doing anything is good money. 75 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,680 Good news for a couple who run a furniture restoration 76 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,319 studio will be called Heirloom House in Jacksonville, Florida. They 77 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,439 got an old dresser standard stuff for them. They restore 78 00:03:44,439 --> 00:03:47,919 and refurnish the old furniture. Then they noticed something wedged 79 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,479 between two pieces of wood. It was a bundle of cash. 80 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,080 They got out the camera started filming on TikTok. The 81 00:03:55,159 --> 00:03:57,400 husband sees it first says that's a good bit of money. 82 00:03:57,439 --> 00:03:59,159 The wife says, I think that might be a twenty. 83 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,039 They get the bundle loose with a screwdriver and they 84 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,319 find a fifty then at the center of the bundle, 85 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,159 one hundred dollars bill.

They also found a gold coin and a 89 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,519 plastic protective case with a cartoon dragon on one side. 90 00:04:20,959 --> 00:04:23,360 They think it is a Chinese good luck coin of 91 00:04:23,399 --> 00:04:26,439 some kind.
