00:0095.9 The Rats, 724. Are you ready for today's No Sweat News?
00:03Hell yeah, let's go, baby. Nickelback tickets on the line on Friday.
00:08Meet and greet tickets, too, man, so you can meet the band before the Nutcracker Ball at the sold-out Starland Ballroom.
00:15Very, very cool. Let's go, baby.
00:17Here's a bit of a head-scratcher for you. Now, you are a self-confirmed candle lover.
00:23Yes, Carl, because I smoke marijuana.
00:25Wait a second, hold on. I've got to check the time, make sure the kids are off the bus and they're not listening.
00:29The smell of your dope.
00:30Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love a good candle.
00:32Well, this story's for you, David. Yankee Candles have just announced their new scented candle that smells like dill pickles.
00:39What?
00:40Smells like dill pickles. You heard me correctly.
00:44Okay, I like a good pickle on my Jersey Mike's sub.
00:48You're going to get the munchies anyway.
00:50But I don't want to be smelling the pickles. I like smelling pine.
00:54Pine, okay.
00:55That's my flavor.
00:56Well, here you go. National Pickle Day is November 14th and the dill pickle scented Yankee candle will be available.
01:02No, because you know what? Now that the more I think about it, if you have like a dill pickle and there's no like, like, then I want a candle that's like a roast beef sandwich.
01:11A candle with some potato chips and then a candle with like a Dr. Pepper.
01:15You got to go the full routine.
01:17Yeah. Like the pickle itself is just not enough.
01:20Dayline England for story number two.
01:21I love this.
01:22A small town in England just rallied around their local pub to save it from developers.
01:28This is an episode of cheers for crying out loud.
01:31The place is called The Rising Sun and it just reopened after the whole ordeal, which started back in 2011.
01:40What happened?
01:40When the previous owners shuttered it, the locals thought that it was for sale and whomever bought it would keep it as a pub.
01:48But that was not the case.
01:49The people who bought it said, no, no, no.
01:52Our plan is to turn this thing into an apartment building.
01:54Say goodbye to your pub.
01:56That it's so rude.
01:57Not up in here, said the people of Woodcroft, Gloucestershire.
02:02Not up in here.
02:03No, you don't turn our pub into apartments.
02:06I love that.
02:07So they rallied and they raised the funds.
02:10They even got a government grant.
02:11And then they went and bought it back from the developers.
02:15And since over the time it had gone into disrepair with all the legal wrangling and so forth, they refurbished it themselves.
02:23Oh, wow.
02:24And last Saturday, The Rising Sun reopened and the first pints were drawn.
02:31I mean, that's phenomenal.
02:33Ain't that nice?
02:33That is, that's probably a movie waiting to happen right there.
02:37When the community comes together, right?
02:39Yeah, that's a movie.
02:40I am, I am straight up convinced of it.
02:43Good job there, folks.
02:44And now we go to Philadelphia for this chicken story.
02:48Okay.
02:49You know.
02:50The chicken man.
02:51It was, it was a rough weekend for Philly.
02:54Oh my God.
02:55They choked like dogs on the sports.
02:57They lost the World Series.
02:59They, they, they lost Major League Soccer's final World Cup game in Major League Soccer.
03:05Man, they lost that too.
03:06But they got themselves a new hero.
03:10Back on October 8th, Alexander Tominsky challenged himself to eat 40 rotisserie chickens in 40 days.
03:25Why?
03:26Nobody seems to know.
03:27Because they're there, Carl.
03:29That's why.
03:30So he did.
03:32And last Sunday, he finished his 40th rotisserie chicken in 40 days.
03:38Man, they blew up the chicken man in Philly last night.
03:41They certainly did.
03:41That's what it sounds like to me.
03:42Last Friday, he posted a poster inviting people to come watch his 40th rotisserie chicken go down.
03:50Come watch me eat the chicken.
03:52This is what I sound like now that I've eaten 40 chickens.
03:56I kind of have a Marlon Brando.
03:58As a funny aside, he actually lost 16 pounds during this whole ordeal.
04:03No, he didn't.
04:03He did.
04:03I swear to God.
04:04So he didn't even say where he was going to eat the chicken.
04:09He just said, I'll be at the abandoned pier near Walmart.
04:13I'll be at the abandoned pier at Walmart.
04:14But hundreds of people turned out to cheer him on.
04:19And I take you now to an abandoned pier.
04:22Only Philadelphia, this type of nonsense exists.
04:24Where the same people who threw snowballs at Santa Claus.
04:29Killed the robot.
04:29And killed that poor, cute, hitchhiking robot.
04:32Absolutely.
04:33Came out to cheer a guy wolf down his 40th rotisserie chicken in 40 days.
04:44Oh, my.
04:55One more bite.
05:01What are we doing?
05:02What was that last one?
05:03What are we doing?
05:04We're cheering for the guy who made 40 rotisserie chicken.
05:07That guy is going to take that one last bite and immediately have a heart attack.
05:12And it's all on you people.
05:13He almost vomited three times during the fourth one.
05:16This poor bastard.
05:17He almost rejected upon everybody in the front row.
05:21But when he didn't, the cheers from the crowd got louder and louder and louder.
05:26Yeah, they were cheering, lard ass, lard ass.
05:29And then it was a pukorama.
05:31Oh, I love that scene.
05:32Barfarama.
05:33That was great, that scene.
05:34Yeah, this whole thing sounds like that scene out of Stand By Me with the blueberry pie.
05:39I mean, he is America.
05:41Well, this is a nightmare.
05:43He is Philadelphia's new hero.
05:46The man who ate 40 rotisserie chickens.
05:49I'm sure that, you know, what's his face?
05:52Ben Franklin and the other founding fathers are really happy right now that the great city of Philadelphia is simply where...
05:59They put another crack in the Liberty Bell, Dave.
06:03They're applauding a 450-pound Eagles fan about to eat chicken until he dies.
06:09What the hell?
06:09What are we doing?
06:10Oh, my God.
06:11What inspires the people of Philadelphia?
06:13I don't know.
06:14Oh, I think I know meth, for one.
06:17I don't know.
06:18We're all about to eat.
06:19It's a good thing.
06:20Peace.
06:20You need a roof there.
06:20We'll be right away later.
06:23Bye-bye.
06:24Blue Freelance.
06:27Yeah.
06:28Love our back.
06:30Those things are bad.
06:31I knew that actuallyкам they are out of the way they are.
06:32Especially those things haveétais Specage.
06:34Yeah, we'll be right back.
06:37Also, let's see.
