1 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: It's the radio segment that's revolutionizing the way we write, 2 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:13,119 Speaker 1: with a new smart pen that loudly screams out every 3 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: word that you put to pack where it was so 4 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,079 Speaker 1: now the entire room you can hear you're scrawling into 5 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: your diary. Imagine at school. Do you like me? Dang it? 6 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: It's all thanks to Laser Stories, this segment where we 7 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: read weird news stories around the globe, just like everyone 8 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: else does, except we've got a laser. There's other doodle dandies, 9 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: just don't. This first laser story is out of China. 10 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: An eighty one year old man named Zang shu Ye 11 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 1: was out on his balcony from a high rise apartment 12 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 1: building when he accidentally dropped his cell phone. Oh oh no. 13 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: He was hanging right on the edge of the building 14 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 1: fifteen floors up, so he attempted to go over the 15 00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: barrier to try and grab it. It was suspended like. 16 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 2: An eighty one year old climbing on a high ride. 17 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: Well, the worst case scenario happened. Zang lost his balance 18 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: and fell over the rail. At least get one text 19 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: in before it's all over. Luckily for him, another resident 20 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: on the seventh floor had installed a heavy duty clothes 21 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: drying rack attached to their window, and with all the 22 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: strings and chords on it, it miraculously caught him like 23 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: a cartoon exactly so. According to the police report, the 24 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: resident was about to go check her laundry when she 25 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: looked out the window in shock and saw Zang just 26 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: sitting there waving back at her man's. 27 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: Dry How are old people so chill? Almost to a 28 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 2: death and now he's waving. 29 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: She called for help, and eventually a security guard tied 30 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: a fire hose around his own waist and then climbed 31 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: out and saved the old man. 32 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 2: Trust your own nuts if you're going to do that. 33 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 1: Thankfully, he only came away with minor injuries when he 34 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: probably should have died that day. 35 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 2: That's crazy, But Alexis needs to know what about the. 36 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: The phone did not make it, so was it worth it? 37 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: A funeral for his iPhone next week? Zang says he 38 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: is grateful for the clothes rack and believes that if 39 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: that scenario ever happened again, he would probably be caught 40 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: a second time. That he's just got a guardian angel 41 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: on him all the time. This next laser story is 42 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: out of the Fragrance forum. I'm not sure if we 43 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: covered this on the show, but Bath and Bodyworks debut 44 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: a new pizza and ranch candle last month. 45 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 2: Cramy dude. I feel it's so hard to keep up 46 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 2: with all the weird candles that keep getting released. 47 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, well you don't have to anymore, because a press 48 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: release says they've already discontinued. Interesting, disconted, discontinued. 49 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 2: I will say, I'm sorry. If you take a Hawaiian 50 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 2: pizza and dip it in some ranch, it is like 51 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 2: next level. 52 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: It is pretty wild. We're talking about candle candles. 53 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 2: They discontinued it because people were trying. 54 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: To eat them. That is definitely not why. The reason 55 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: is Apparently dozens of customers, if not hundreds, tried to 56 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: return the candle because it was making people gagg The 57 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: description on their website probably should have tipped us off. 58 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: It says it has notes of gooey cheese, and do 59 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: you really want your entire home to smell like hot cheese? 60 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: I mean, already does I think assuming and cold cheese. 61 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: It's not actual cheese that you're smelling either. I'm like, 62 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: is this the deli? Also a TikTok went viral last week, 63 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: where a bunch of girls smelled it inside a store 64 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: and looked like they might puke as well. Someone in 65 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: the comments said they smelled it too, and their quote 66 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: life flashed before their eyes. 67 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 2: Wohde, don't you kind of want to smell one? 68 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: Now? 69 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 2: I mean, why do we only want to smell things 70 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: that are really good or really bad? 71 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: It's now sold out on the Bath and body Works website. 72 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: People are weird, and when reports came out it was 73 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: making dozens gags. Suddenly everybody wanted one, just like the 74 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: feeling I just had. The company says they're not going 75 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: to restock it, though it's got a rating of a 76 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: one point five stars with over two hundred bad reviews. 77 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 2: Wow, such thing as bad press, right, Bath and body Works, 78 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: I don't know about that. 79 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: This next lazer story is out of trend town. When 80 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: you think of fancy bag brands, Fendy, Louis Prada, those 81 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: all come to mind. Well, now you can add another 82 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: designer to that list, Trader Joe's. Oh yeah, I say 83 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: that because outside of the US, the Trader Joe's canvas 84 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: totes are reselling for upwards of fifty thousand dollars. Oh my, good. 85 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: That is crazy. 86 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: So cute though, but they're so stupid. They're the mini toates. 87 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: They're lunch bags. Everyone used some for lunch. I just 88 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: hate how small they are. 89 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: These are big my lunches. 90 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 1: But that's the point.

The US has a rule 101 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: limiting customers to only purchasing two because of their high demand, 102 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: but overseas they've reached a completely different status entirely. It's 103 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: like the Boo boos. 104 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 2: My friends live in Europe say, now, it's almost like 105 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 2: two sick to have one that they're getting embarrassed to 106 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 2: have them in Europe because so everybody has all. 107 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: They are being listed on sites similar to eBay with 108 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: the starting auction price of ten grand.
