  • A Rock mysteriously moved 1700 miles on its own
    Mar 8 2026
    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.

    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: a coyote is filmed swimming ashore at Alcatraz Island, with park rangers alerted and an amateur naturalist saying it could survive briefly on the island; a decades-missing class ring found buried on a New Jersey beach by a metal detector enthusiast is traced from the initials “BW” to Barbara Ledge of Crete High School (class of 1966) and returned to her Nebraska family; an animal shelter in Nova Scotia reports having no animals currently available for adoption after placing 500 pets over the past 12 months; a 90-year-old woman’s long-stored sauerkraut crock is identified as exceptionally rare and sells for $32,000 at auction on her 91st birthday; and Suffolk County, New York police respond to a bank alarm caused by a deer that crashed through a window, which officers lasso and release back into the wild.

  • Cows use tools now
    Mar 3 2026
    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.
