The Buzzer

In attempt to socially distance ourselves, but stay together, Sean and his roommate, JT hung out (remotely) with Scott Frazier.  This week we share GOOD NEWS of positive stories coming out of all the craziness this past week. Plus, we share tips for parents trying to figure out how to occupy their kids during a quarantine. Oh, and a few goofy stories involving a kangaroo hoarding toilet paper (sound familiar?) and a cow that's been evading the police for a few months now. It's a fun one, and a great way to keep your mind off things! :)

This week Sean and Emilee break down the finale of The Bachelor and how terrible Barb is.

This week, Daniel Sahad - frontman for Nané (The Band) joins us to chat about the following: A guy who brought a llama as his Plus 1 to his sister's wedding. Tinder giving (obvious) advice on how to avoid Corona...by not casually hooking up. GOOD NEWS: Including Gibson Guitars giving back to Nashville tornado relief + a little boy who dressed as his favorite super hero (a security guard). A guy is going to jail for licking ice cream.

A new book from Clive Wynne (founder of the Canine Science Collaboratory at Arizona State University) claims that dogs are, indeed, capable of “love” as we would define it. Wynne’s research suggests that dogs are not very bright compared to other animals, but are separated due to their “hyper sociability.” Wynne has observed substantial spikes in Oxytocin (the bonding chemical) when dogs stare into human eyes. It should be noted that in 2009 geneticist Bridgett vonHoldt discovered that dogs have a mutation responsible for Williams syndrome often found in humans. Williams Syndrome is also characterized by intellectual limitations, extreme friendliness, and a desire for interpersonal connection. Philosophical question: Are animals capable of love?

This week our Bachelor correspondent, Emilee Guidorzi tries her hand at co-hosting The Buzzer!  With that we have stories about:  A CEO who is making $70k/year the minimum wage at his company. A dad who accidentally bought his 4yo son a dinosaur. How Disney is trying (and failing) to be "woke" with the new Mulan movie. GOOD NEWS involving bikers who who raise money/protect for victims of child abuse, and a little girl who called 9-1-1 for her "sick" stuffed bunny and got a compassionate response.
