TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Hero cat comes to the rescue of owner

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Hero cat comes to the rescue of owner

Nothing better than a feel good pet story. This one is kind of like like Lassie. Remember that old show? That dog just had all the intuition to save people. In this scenario it was a cat who saved the day. 

Last weekend an 83-year-old woman in the U.K. fell down a 70 feet down a ravine near her house.  Luckily her cat noticed her fall and stood up at the top making noise and meowing nonstop. It caught the attention of people nearby who called rescue crews that were able to come and save the women. She’s now in stable condition and will be okay.

All thanks to this hero cat!

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why are some fire trucks neon yellow?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why are some fire trucks neon yellow?

Most fire trucks you see are red. But every once in a while you see one of those neon yellow/lime green fire trucks. Why that color?

They actually did a study that showed that specific color of yellow/green is the least likely paint job on a vehicle to get hit by another vehicle. Which is super interesting! It also explains why a lot of safety vests and construction zone signs are that color too.

That Looks Good! May I Try Some?

Isn’t it a shame when a major celebrity doesn’t know when it’s time to hang it up?  Anna read that one comedian is planning a comeback that absolutely nobody wants! (:30)

Anna has got three crazy news stories, and Raven’s gonna pick one to talk about!  His options include a vigilante UFC fighter, a heartbreaking stolen library story, and a skeleton with hair!  (4:19)

If you could be buried next to any celebrity, who would it be?  Definitely a weird question, but Anna got curious after seeing that a burial plot next to her favorite celebrity was open!  (14:38)

A new study says that the trick to a happy relationship is to name 5 things you love about your partner for every one thing that annoys you.  Anna and Raven put their respective spouses to the test, and while Anna’s husband Paul eventually got 5, Raven’s wife Alicia had more trouble!  (18:10)

Everyone looks for ways to save money but if you resort to lying about your children to save a buck, that’s all I need to know about you!  (24:59)
