    150-year-old bottle of beer tastes pretty ok
    2026/03/19
    Johnny Mac presents five stories: Tom’s Eiffel Tower proposal to Taylor is nearly ruined when a woman with a selfie stick blocks their hidden phone, but the stranger’s own video captures the couple hugging, kissing and showing the ring. In London, Rose alleges a neighbor ripped out her fence, cut into her decking and hot tub enclosure, and moved a new fence over a meter into her garden; police called it civil, but a boundary survey says her original fence was correct and she’s working with the land registry. In Southern Arizona, an endangered jaguar is spotted at a watering hole, the fifth in 15 years. In Utah, archaeologists find an intact ~150-year-old bottle of alcohol and experts say it appears to be a low-alcohol beer they hope to recreate. In Wilmington, North Carolina, Zeke Smash donates 5% of profits to childhood cancer charities.

  • Teddy Bear Toss Record

    Teddy Bear Toss Record
    2026/03/17
    Johnny Mac delivers five good news stories: Hershey Bears fans continued a 25-year “teddy bear toss” tradition, throwing 81,796 stuffed animals onto the ice after the team’s first goal (after setting a 102,343 world record last season) to benefit children and families in Central Pennsylvania. The nonprofit American Prairie removed its 100th mile of derelict barbed wire, eliminating about 500,000 pounds of scrap metal to help wildlife move freely, as it works toward national park designation after decades of land acquisition and leasing. David Sylvester began a cross-country bike ride after 9/11 to honor a friend, leading to global journeys documenting consensual touch and healing, and his book “Brethren Arms, Real Men Hug.” Iowa’s Great Iowa Treasure Hunt reunites residents with unclaimed assets, including a woman who recovered $4.5 million in McDonald’s stock. A study found some “gifted word learner” dogs can learn toy names by overhearing conversations.

  • Double amputee climbs highest mountain on all 7 continents

    Double amputee climbs highest mountain on all 7 continents
    2026/03/15
    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: In Texas, Sean enlisted an entire preschool class to surprise his fiancée Zoey with a bridal shower; the couple had attended the school at age four and reconnected at a 2021 summer camp. New research from Newcastle University suggests a single 10-minute high-intensity cycling session can quickly change blood molecules, increasing 13 proteins including one tied to DNA repair, potentially helping suppress cancer growth in overweight but otherwise healthy adults aged 50–78. In England, Mark and Carol spent three decades and tens of thousands restoring a closed 1950 train station into “The Old Station,” now open for visits and overnight stays. In the Mediterranean, Cyprus is fighting invasive lionfish by serving it in restaurants. British veteran Hari became the first above-the-knee double amputee to climb the highest mountain on every continent.

  • Police Sergeant faked working from home

    Police Sergeant faked working from home
    2026/03/12
    Nicola ignored her husband Martin’s advice to stop entering prize drawings and won a £4.5 million, mortgage-free, fully furnished five-bedroom Lake District home with a private lake plus $315,000 cash, giving the couple financial security and options to live in, rent, or sell. A notorious 22-room Florida “theme park” house—with rooms like a saloon, pirate room, 1950s space theme, and a taxidermy room with stuffed cats—found a buyer at the $500,000 asking price to become a short-term rental. A sea turtle that survived a shark attack and lost a front limb was rehabilitated and released with a satellite tracker. Researchers say Svalbard polar bears’ body condition improved after 2000 despite declining sea ice. A police sergeant was fired for using a picture frame to fake keystrokes while working from home.

  • The Museum Of Personal Failure

    The Museum Of Personal Failure
    2026/03/10
    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: Vancouver opened a pop-up Museum of Personal Failure at Kingsgate Mall, created by Evan after a breakup, featuring donated objects with written explanations such as a wall of rejection letters, failed relationship notes, broken car parts, and unfinished songs. A missing parakeet named Snow was caught after landing on a kindergartener’s head at St. No’s Catholic School and was reunited with her family. In San Diego, Cassie received a library copy of The Incredible Journey 46 years late with an unsigned apology note, and she plans to keep it on her shelf. Harold (91) and Francis (90) renewed vows on their 70th anniversary after eloping in the 1950s. Oscar Mayer’s six Wienermobiles return for the Weenie 500 on May 22 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

    A Rock mysteriously moved 1700 miles on its own
    2026/03/08
    Host Johnny Mack presents five good news stories: a small climbing rock called “Portable the Rock” disappeared from Squamish, British Columbia and was later spotted 1,700 miles away at the Iron Man bouldering area in Bishop, California, with plans to return it; six American bison (three males, three females) were released onto Native prairie land at Burlington Prairie Forest Preserve in Kane County, Illinois, marking their return after about 200 years; in China, doctors preserved a 30-year-old woman’s severed ear by grafting it to the top of her foot for five months before reattaching it to her head; in California, $6,270 in lost cash and personal items were found scattered in a front yard and returned after deputies identified the owner via social media; and a train from Hull to Liverpool in the UK was delayed after a driver reported an emu on the tracks, which was safely removed before service resumed at 10:14 AM. Johnny also promotes an ad-free podcast option via Apple Podcasts for $5 per month and notes the show has gone three episodes without a world record story.

  • Cows use tools now

    Cows use tools now
    2026/03/03
    Johnny Mac presents five stories: Austrian researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna document a Swiss Brown cow named Veronica deliberately using sticks and a long-handled brush to scratch herself, meeting the scientific definition of tool use. Off the coast of Baja California, underwater photographers and free divers rescue a devil ray (mobula ray) severely entangled in a buoy line from a shark fisherman while sharks circle nearby; after being freed, the ray swims away and returns for a close pass described as a “thank you” circle. Don, a 100-year-old Royal Marines veteran who landed in the first wave at Juno Beach on June 6, 1944, receives France’s Legion of Honor, fulfilling what he called the last missing medal. Strong Island Animal Rescue League works to rehome more than 450 domesticated white pet rats found in a home; with help from a local animal hospital, many are treated for mites, eye infections, bite wounds, and other issues, about 10 are euthanized, and over 200 are placed in permanent or temporary homes. In Rhode Island, lawmakers debate ending the Mr. Potato Head specialty license plates after Hasbro’s move to Boston; the plates cost about $40 with roughly half donated to the Rhode Island Community Food Bank, prompting concern about impacts on food programs.
