    100 year old organ donor
    May 14 2026
    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance’s 24/7 Wildlife Explorers Channel now streams live animal cams, zoo encounters, and educational programming to children in 400+ hospitals across 48 states and 12 countries, helping patients who can’t visit in person. A 100-year-old Nebraska WWII veteran and rancher, Roger Steele, became the oldest U.S. organ donor after his liver was deemed healthy for transplant, highlighting that age isn’t a limit. In Hawaii, Tyler and friends rescued 15 horses from chest-high overnight floodwaters without injuries. Michigan animal control responded to a report of a diaper-wearing spider monkey named Brazil trying to enter a home; it was returned next door and is legal as a pet in the state. Philadelphia International Airport set a Guinness record with 1,291 cheesesteaks lined up end-to-end.

    May 12 2026
    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: a woman on a road trip in Australia fell waist-deep into a collapsed pit toilet at the Henbury Meteorites Conservation Zone and was trapped about three hours before a passing tradesman, alerted by her husband, used a rope and his car to pull her out over 45 minutes; Johnny Cruz Buckingham (“Mr. World Records”) set the fastest towed asphalt skiing record at 69 mph behind a car to inspire his child; Buffalo hockey fans finished “O Canada” after a singer’s microphone cut out, and the Sabres later won the series in Game 6 for their first playoff series win since 2007; Xavier completed 12,412 pull-ups in 24 hours, beating the prior record by 67; and in Armenia, a reported escaped zebra was actually a donkey painted with stripes, prompting a zoo warning about toxic dyes.

  • Vape Squirrel

    Vape Squirrel
    May 10 2026
    Johnny Mac presents five good news stories: England completed the King Charles III England Coast Path, a 2,689-mile trail tracing the full perimeter of England’s coastline after 18 years of work, with new bridges, boardwalks, and mostly continuous routing; an opossum stowed away on a cargo ship to Alaska, was found in Juneau, and—since it’s invasive there—was taken to the Alaska Zoo and named Meatball; Chile established a massive maritime protected area of about 386,000 square miles, the third largest protected marine seascape, safeguarding diverse marine life and an underwater mountain chain; in Chicago, two separate delivery robots from Serve Robotics and Coco Robotics crashed into bus shelters and shattered glass, with both companies responding and offering repairs; and in the UK, discarded vapes pose risks to wildlife after footage showed a squirrel chewing on a vape, likely attracted by fruity flavors and exposed to nicotine and microplastics.

    Fake Bear Attack Gang caught because they didn't do their homework
    May 7 2026
    Johnny Mac shares five upbeat stories: Jamie turned his intentionally clumsy “bad” paintings—first made as a joke gift for his wife in 2024—into a side business earning thousands, with pieces selling for $60 to several hundred; he’s fulfilled heavy demand and even had Judi Dench sign and donate one for auction. A hot air balloon with 13 passengers made a controlled emergency landing in a California backyard due to shifting winds, low wind, and limited fuel. “The Baron” set a record by pulling a 2,184-pound carriage using nipple piercings. In North Carolina, 6,500+ volunteers and Lowe’s employees built 10,027 beds in 24 hours for children in need. Finally, three people were sentenced for staging fake bear attacks on luxury cars in an insurance fraud scheme.

  • The Most Marvel Tattoos

    The Most Marvel Tattoos
    May 5 2026
    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: DJ AG volunteered at the Ann Owens Center, turning a senior center into a rave with a karaoke-style singalong to combat loneliness, with 84-year-olds Helen and Lenny praising the inclusive, memory-filled afternoon. Lorraine swam about 50 feet in cold water for over five hours in a wetsuit to rescue an injured seagull tangled in fishing line; the bird is now recovering with local staff. Tom set a Guinness World Record by tattooing 63 Marvel comics characters on his body, starting with Thanos in 2016, and his tattoos have been signed by Josh Brolin and Elizabeth Olson. Japan’s Prime Minister met Deep Purple, revealed she bought “Machine Head” in 1971, and said she once played keyboards in a Deep Purple tribute band. In North Carolina, an injured alligator was found near a bank drive-through, treated as minor, and relocated by wildlife officials.

  • A toilet inside your car - and it's voice activated!

    A toilet inside your car - and it's voice activated!
    May 3 2026
    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: a Chinese automaker patented a voice-activated car toilet that slides from under the passenger seat, stores waste in a tank with a rotating heating element to evaporate liquid and dry solids, and uses an exhaust fan to manage odors. A University of Oregon study of 20 healthy adults (ages 20–28) compared hot water immersion, traditional dry saunas, and far infrared saunas, finding hot water immersion raised core body temperature the most, boosting blood flow and supporting vascular health when done in moderation. Chicago expanded the “81 Club,” turning public school IDs into Chicago Public Library cards, with pilot usage up 63%. In Switzerland, archaeologists recovered 1,200+ artifacts from a 2,000-year-old Roman-era lake shipwreck. Ohio police found a 91-year-old woman safe, playing Bubble Pop while chasing a high score.

    Apr 30 2026
    Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: Gerie, a pet chicken in Maine, is recognized as the world’s oldest living pet chicken at 15 years and 100 days, with owner Frank saying she became flock leader and now enjoys an indoor life and human company ahead of turning 16 in July. In Georgia, 12-year-old Macy is praised for running into her burning home to alert her two older brothers and help them escape as firefighters contained the blaze and the cause remains under investigation. In England, archaeologists surveying for a wind power project unexpectedly uncovered a Roman villa and bathhouse, an Iron Age farming estate, a bronze handle nicknamed “Norfolk Na,” plus Neolithic, Bronze Age, and medieval finds. In the UK, recycled urine from major events is processed into fertilizer to grow 4,500 trees. In New Zealand, 101-year-old Neville becomes the world’s oldest competitive croquet player.
