1 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:09,679 Speaker 1: Caalaroka Shark Media. By there, I'm Johnny Mack with five 2 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,720 good news stories. I don't know about you. I am 3 00:00:11,919 --> 00:00:16,320 done with winter. Oh my well. A small town, Oregon 4 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,160 couldn't afford to properly clear the snow from its street, 5 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,960 so residents did what they had to do. They got naked. 6 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,800 That's right. A group of mostly middle aged and elderly 7 00:00:25,839 --> 00:00:28,719 men and women volunteered to pose nude for a calendar 8 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,439 to raise money for the town of Lakeview. The photos 9 00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:35,000 feature mister September he's a seventy two year old man 10 00:00:35,039 --> 00:00:39,079 picking berries, and a seventy seven year old woman reclining 11 00:00:39,119 --> 00:00:42,679 in a metal bathsub. She's the cover. Margo said, if 12 00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:44,799 you take your clothes off, your face looks different. I 13 00:00:44,799 --> 00:00:47,560 felt like the picture would be a better picture. Margo 14 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,640 presented the idea at a town council meeting during the summer. 15 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,079 The council was like, I don't know if anyone's going 16 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,799 to do that. Oh no, people did it. It's called 17 00:00:55,799 --> 00:00:59,920 the Outback Naked Calendar. Good news if you're a coral reef. 18 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,920 If in the Great Barrier Reef, an AI powered robotic 19 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,840 assistant is helping the Australian Institute of Marine Science and 20 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,760 their researchers restore damaged coral reefs. The Deployment Guidance system 21 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,719 scans the seafloor defined sections with bleached reef segments, then 22 00:01:15,799 --> 00:01:20,439 drops down coral larvae housed inside ceramic analogs specifically designed 23 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,640 to offer protection to juvenile coral while they grow to adulthood. 24 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,439 I was there in twenty fifteen. I think I caught 25 00:01:26,599 --> 00:01:28,840 the last five minutes of the barrier reef before it 26 00:01:28,879 --> 00:01:31,719 got bleached. Very fortunate to do. It was beautiful, so 27 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,599 I hope the scientists do figure that out. The Olympics 28 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,879 are coming up and accommodations are being designed with sustainability 29 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,760 in mind. Rather than building massive new complexes from scratch, 30 00:01:42,879 --> 00:01:45,560 the IOC set each site is making use of existing 31 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,040 or temporary structures, limiting new construction and adapting the local 32 00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:52,959 needs while still delivering the full Olympic Village experience. Main 33 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,560 Olympic Village in the heart of Milan will host both 34 00:01:55,599 --> 00:01:58,920 Olympians and Paralympians. The site was once an abandoned railway 35 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,719 yard and it's been trans formed into six residential buildings 36 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,560 that will accommodate about fifteen hundred residents during the games. 37 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,599 After the Olympics wrap up, the village will be converted 38 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,479 into student housing, providing roughly seventeen hundred beds for local students. 39 00:02:12,439 --> 00:02:14,439 About thirty percent of the apartments will be offered at 40 00:02:14,439 --> 00:02:17,400 subsidized rates, going for about four hundred and thirty euros 41 00:02:17,439 --> 00:02:19,879 a month. Not bad live in Milan, Sign me up. 42 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,159 It turns out the ocean is a lot noisier than 43 00:02:23,159 --> 00:02:27,039 most of us realize. Scientists that the Fish Eye Collaborative 44 00:02:27,199 --> 00:02:29,960 have developed a new underwater tool that pairs sound recording 45 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,879 with three hundred and sixty degree video. The technology allows 46 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,199 researchers to match specific sounds to the exact fish producing them. 47 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,719 For example, fish don't just swim around silently by vibrating 48 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,680 internal air sacks, rubbing their teeth and fin spines together, 49 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,360 and sometimes even forting. Think about that next time you're swimming. 50 00:02:46,599 --> 00:02:52,400 Fish produce a wide range of sounds, including apparently farts, grunts, boops, clicks, hums, 51 00:02:52,439 --> 00:02:56,639 and bubbling burps. If this show makes your day a 52 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,719 little brighter, you want to support it. A great way 53 00:02:58,759 --> 00:03:01,280 to do that is go to the Apple podcast app, 54 00:03:01,319 --> 00:03:04,199 where it says uninterrupted listening, click on that, and then 55 00:03:04,199 --> 00:03:06,080 for five bucks a month you'll get this show and 56 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,520 a bunch of others on the network, including Daily Comedy News, 57 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,199 which I host ad free.

Columbia CEO Tim 62 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,080 Boyle is directly challenging flat earthers. In a new ad, 63 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,039 Boyle looks onto the camera and says, you, guys claim 64 00:03:30,039 --> 00:03:32,159 there's an end of the Earth, Well, snap a picture, 65 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,159 send it to us, and you get the assets of 66 00:03:34,199 --> 00:03:37,400 the company, all of it.

They also clarify what does not 70 00:03:50,439 --> 00:03:53,080 count as the edge of the Earth.
