Speaker 1: It's the radio segment that's come out with a new
Speaker 1: line of plug in air fresheners, all scented like Sharpies,
Speaker 1: So now you don't have to look weird huffing markers
Speaker 1: in the supply closet.
Speaker 2: You get your Sharpie scented air freshener.
Speaker 1: With Laser Stories, the segment where we read weird news
Speaker 1: stories around the glove, just like everyone else does, except
Speaker 1: we have a laser and there's other numb noses just don't.
Speaker 2: This first lazer story is out of Dallas, Texas.
Speaker 1: Twenty one year old Kobe Todd was going to his
Speaker 1: car in the grocery store parking lot when the unthinkable happened.
Speaker 1: A shopping cart flew into the side of his brand
Speaker 1: new Ford Mustang.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, no worse. So Kobe jumped out of
Speaker 2: the car to catch the purp, but.
Speaker 3: No one was there, like runaway or something.
Speaker 1: Well, he immediately went inside and demanded to see the videotape.
Speaker 3: I don't blame him.
Speaker 2: In the store.
Speaker 1: Let him see it, and he was left dumbfounded because
Speaker 1: in it you could see the metal shopping cart way
Speaker 1: on the other side of the parking lot, sitting all alone.
Speaker 2: Then all by itself.
Speaker 1: It makes a one hundred and eighty degree turn and
Speaker 1: heads straight towards Kobe's car itself. It crosses the parking lot,
Speaker 1: gaining speed till it turns just a little bit and
Speaker 1: smashes directly into it. There was no win that day,
Speaker 1: and the parking lot is perfectly level.
Speaker 3: So it's like a possessed shopping car shopping kartma.
Speaker 2: He says.
Speaker 1: The only explanation for the cart moving on his own
Speaker 1: is that it was the doing of a little boy's ghost.
Speaker 2: Good question, I can explain.
Speaker 3: It's kind of a weird exit because.
Speaker 1: The day before, Kobe had gone ghost hunting at an
Speaker 1: abandoned home on the outskirts of town, and he says
Speaker 1: he sends the little boy's spirit while he was in there.
Speaker 1: He's certain the spirit followed him home and then to
Speaker 1: the grocery store the next day. Kobe says he forgives
Speaker 1: the ghost because maybe he was trying to play with me,
Speaker 1: a violent.
Speaker 3: Way to play their ghost boy.
Speaker 2: All kids of ghosts or not, they like to sit
Speaker 2: in the shopping cart, you know what.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And also his insurance isn't being quite as open
Speaker 1: to fixing a dent caused by a mischievous ghost boy,
Speaker 1: as Kobe had hoped they'd be. This next Lazer story
Speaker 1: is out of Topeka, Kansas. Brandon Tubbs and his wife
Speaker 1: took their grandchildren to a drug store last weekend so
Speaker 1: they could see the Easter Bunny. But the kids, not surprisingly,
Speaker 1: were a little scared of the person in the bunny costume.
Speaker 3: I mean, out of all of the mascots for holidays,
Speaker 3: it is the freakiest, terrifying rabbit.
Speaker 1: So Brandon went up and gave the Easter Bunny a
Speaker 1: big hug.
Speaker 2: Okay hug.
Speaker 1: He wanted to show his grandkids It's like, see, it's
Speaker 1: not that scary.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: After that, the kids took their photo and they all
Speaker 1: left the store to police waiting outside. Apparently, the woman
Speaker 1: in the Easter Bunny costume accused Brandon of groping her.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, oh no, Brandon to play with her
Speaker 2: little tail.
Speaker 1: As Brandon was cuffed in front of his grandkids, he
Speaker 1: told officers, it's not true.
Speaker 2: He was just showing the kids not to be afraid.
Speaker 2: So we'll see. Yeah, I need to see video proof.
Speaker 4: Like slapping the bunny's button and it's like all right, buddy,
Speaker 4: it's not that safe.
Speaker 2: Well in the front of the Bunny.
Speaker 1: Police released him on bond, but they are doing an investigation. Also,
Speaker 1: the cops told Brandon he was banned from the drug
Speaker 1: store and will be arrested again if he ever goes back.
Speaker 2: There's the easter.
Speaker 1: Ever you think they didn't like the Bunny before?
Speaker 2: My god?
Speaker 1: This next stories out of North Carolina. Have participation trophies
Speaker 1: made kids too soft? A group of politicians think so,
Speaker 1: and they're now pushing to ban them.
Speaker 3: This is where we're spending our energy.
Speaker 2: It is I joke.
Speaker 1: Last Thursday, three Republican state senators introduced the Eliminate Participation
Speaker 1: Trophies Act, which would ban them at all youth sporting
Speaker 1: events in North Carolina that are sponsored by state or
Speaker 1: local governments. And if officials give them out anyway, that's
Speaker 1: a blatant disregard to the laws. So, Brooke, if you'd
Speaker 1: brought that attitude, you'd be fined upwards of one thousand
Speaker 1: dollars and could.
Speaker 2: Face jail time.
Speaker 3: He just bought the entire eight year old basketball team
Speaker 3: that he coached medals.
Speaker 2: Oh, setting them up for failure.
Speaker 3: You pick one.
Speaker 2: Excited about it.
Speaker 4: But apparently they shouldn't be an awful Brook.
Speaker 1: Yes, the idea behind this is to stop making kids
Speaker 1: think that they're a winner and they're special just because.
Speaker 2: They showed up for something.
Speaker 1: But people in favor of the trophies think the whole
Speaker 1: topic is being overblown. In general, most of those trophies
Speaker 1: and ribbons go to very young kids like six and seven.
Speaker 2: About thinking, that's one thing if you're in high school.
Speaker 1: Because I question is are they just a nice, harmless
Speaker 1: souvenir for kids to get or are they damaging in
Speaker 1: some way? Let's ask Brook, who recently let a charge
Speaker 1: in her daughter's school to band the words hello and friend,
Speaker 1: saying they're both a sign of weakness and should not
Speaker 1: be tolerated. Care to comment, Yeah, okay, didn't think jump
Speaker 1: that's acceptable.
Speaker 4: This next lay is there's stories out of restaurant Worldy,
Speaker 4: a website conducted a survey on controversial restaurant behaviors and
Speaker 4: asked people if they thought these things were cool or
Speaker 4: not cool.
Speaker 1: Okay, so thousands of people waited in on these here's
Speaker 1: the results. First, they found sixty two percent of people
Speaker 1: say not cool to start eating before everyone else's food
Speaker 1: has arrived.
Speaker 2: I agree it depends on the environment.
Speaker 1: But most of the time, yeah, say, unless the waiter
Speaker 1: has specifically said there's going to be a lengthy delay
Speaker 1: on the other house, we have to restart.
Speaker 2: It's going to take twenty minutes.
Speaker 3: You guys, I feel like then you have to offer bytes.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Only thirty eight percent say it's cool to start eating asap.
Speaker 1: Eighty seven percent of people say it's not cool to
Speaker 1: argue with a host about weight times because you see
Speaker 1: empty tables in the restaurants. True, especially if you don't
Speaker 1: have a reservation.
Speaker 2: You shouldn't be doing that. Well, I, he's working at a restaurant,
Speaker 2: people to go. What about that huge table that's empty.
Speaker 2: It's like, that's a table for eight people. You have
Speaker 2: one person with you.
Speaker 1: Like, seventy three percent say not cool to ask for
Speaker 1: something that's not currently on the menu.
Speaker 3: Oh no, she you just want them to make you
Speaker 3: something that isn't even there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're all coming up with your own recipes.
Speaker 1: Well, there are reasonable exceptions, like if you have allergies
Speaker 1: or dietary restrictions, but don't be a dining diva Otherwise,
Speaker 1: fifty eight percent say not cool to tip less than
Speaker 1: twenty percent if the serve was good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, of course, Yeah, that's legit.
Speaker 1: Those who said it's fine may have a lower default
Speaker 1: tip number, and it's not because they refuse to tip
Speaker 1: all together.
Speaker 3: Oh are you defending those people? It looks like you are.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying those who said.
Speaker 1: Thirty seven percent say it's not cool to take photos
Speaker 1: of your meal, Oh.
Speaker 2: Come on, there is one rule. Camera eats first.
Speaker 1: You prostitute that chicken absolutely. Sixty three percent say that's okay.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Finally, about half of people, forty nine percent, say it's
Speaker 1: not cool to ask for your check to be split
Speaker 1: more than four ways.
Speaker 3: Yeah, especially if it's not evenly. If it's evenly, like
Speaker 3: it's pretty, it's true.
Speaker 2: If the computer can do it, yeah, just be like
Speaker 2: six ways. That's one thing.
Speaker 1: Everybody does it differently, Like this guy has his own
Speaker 1: set of restaurant rules.
Speaker 2: And his number one is that no matter what he
Speaker 2: eats first all for some activity to letters, sounds, laser
Speaker 2: stories has come to an end for the day. We'll
Speaker 2: do it again the same time on Wednesday,
