Tease: Coming up in ___________ minutes, where Covid-19 originated according to the WHO  

The WHO says that Covid-19 likely originated in an animal after all and not a lab. The World Health Organization will release its long anticipated final report on the origins of the virus today. The report gives four possible sources for the virus and the most likely scenario is via an intermediate animal host, possibly a wild animal captured and raised on a farm. Didn’t South Park already cover all of this a few months ago? (Additional Out) So, basically they spent a year on a report that just says, you’re guess is as good as ours.  

Tease: In ___­­­­___ minutes, Nike wants no part of the Satan Shoes  

Nike has sued the maker of Lil Nas X ‘Satan Shoes’ for trademark infringement. In a lawsuit filed yesterday Nike accuses MSCHF Product Studio over the designer’s 666 pairs of modified Nike Sneakers made in collaboration with the ‘Old Town Road’ singer. All 666 pairs of the shoes that sparked enormous backlash on social media sold out in under a minute for $1,018 each. I didn’t realize there was that much of a market for thousand-dollar shoes from hell. (Additional out) So calm down angry people on the internet, Nike doesn’t endorse the dark lord.  

Tease: Coming up at ­­­­­­­­­­­­_____, how YouTube helped catch a mafia fugitive  

Italian police say a mafia fugitive was caught because he appeared in some YouTube cooking videos. Marc Feren Claude Biart had been on the run for over four years after being accused of drug trafficking. He lived the quiet life in the Dominican Republic before he was spotted in cooking videos he made with his wife. Yet another reason couples shouldn’t work together. (Additional out) In other words, watching YouTube cooking videos all day instead of working finally paid off for one Italian cop.  

Tease: In _____ minutes, what space does to the human heart  

Human hearts shrink in space. A new study found that Astronaut’s hearts shrink the more time they spend in space. During the year he spent aboard the International Space Station, Scott Kelly’s heart shrank despite frequent workouts. The study suggests long-term weightlessness can alter the heart’s structure and cause it to atrophy. Hence why my ex wouldn’t make it three weeks up there. (Additional out) Further proving my theory that space is stupid.
