TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Police Officer responds to noise complaint in most hilarious way ever

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Police Officer responds to noise complaint in most hilarious way ever

Whenever police are called to break up a house party they never know what they’re walking into. They have to be prepared for ANYTHING… literally anything.

Like this one officer in New Jersey who showed up to a backyard after getting multiple noise complaints to find a group of teenagers performing a full on live concert in the yard. He told them to stop… but made a deal with the band. He said they could play one more song if they let HIM sit in on drums for it. They agreed and ended up playing Green Day’s “Basket Case” with him.

Here’s the video of it… it’s pretty fun.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Do Olympic coaches get medals too?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Do Olympic coaches get medals too?

I started wondering this after seeing Xander Schauffele win gold for the U.S. in golf last week. Did his caddie get a medal too? He did not. But that made me wonder do any coaches in the Olympics get medals or ANYTHING?

So Olympic coaches do not get official medals from the International Olympic Committee like the athletes do. For coaches it’s really all about the bragging rights and adding to their legacy how they’ve coached winning Olympians.

There have been a few rare exceptions… for example the head coach of the famous “Miracle on Ice” team for U.S. men’s hockey team got a gold medal after that win in the 1980 Winter Olympics. Also, some countries pay their athletes and coaches money for winning which is a nice bonus.

I do feel like in the future the coaches/trainers/caddies should get some kind of hardware. Maybe a smaller medal?!

It’s the Producer Olympics!  While the greatest athletes in the world compete in Tokyo, Producer Jon and Producer Sean compete to find the most interesting person for Anna and Raven to interview!  (29:25)

Ben and Miranda’s 24-year-old son has asked them to co-sign and help with a deposit on a new Bronco.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: How much water is in an Olympic sized pool?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: How much water is in an Olympic sized pool?

While watching all the swimming, diving, and water polo in the summer Olympics this past week you’ve probably wondered at some point “how much water does it take to fill that thing?”

An Olympic pool has about 2.5 million liters of water. This is enough to fill up 8,200 bathtubs. That’s A LOT of bubble baths.
