Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: I need to tell you two cents, two pretty cool things.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Thank you Christine for this cool thing, because you said
- 0:10Speaker 2: I would like this story, and I love it. According
- 0:13Speaker 2: to a new study, chimps in the wild might be
- 0:16Speaker 2: better at predicting the weather than humans. Researchers found that
- 0:20Speaker 2: these apes don't just wait for the rain to start. Instead,
- 0:24Speaker 2: they sense when a storm is coming and prepare their
- 0:26Speaker 2: beds hours in advance. On nights that they're going to
- 0:30Speaker 2: be cold or wet, they build thicker, deeper nest and
- 0:33Speaker 2: pick taller trees with thicker leaves to stay on. The
- 0:37Speaker 2: big breakthrough here is that chimps aren't just like reacting
- 0:42Speaker 2: to the weather that they see right now. They're planning
- 0:44Speaker 2: for the weather that's coming later. It's like they have
- 0:46Speaker 2: an internal vibe of the forecast. So it's all about preparation.
- 0:50Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, forget Pucksatani Phil. How about like
- 0:55Speaker 2: Charlie the chimp.
- 0:55Speaker 3: Yeah, when he's building a big nest, we're in trouble.
- 0:58Speaker 2: Yeah, it could be a cold win whatever. That's really
- 1:01Speaker 2: really cool. What's your cool thing, Christine?
- 1:03Speaker 3: Well, this is great for Barbie fans and people who
- 1:05Speaker 3: love to collect from the post office the US Postal
- 1:08Speaker 3: Service is rolling out a fun new set of ten
- 1:11Speaker 3: Barbie Theene stamps this summer. So we're gonna have Barbie

- 1:22Speaker 3: and they'll be part of the Forever Stamps and they
- 1:25Speaker 3: which is now seventy eight cents by the way, so yes, yeah,
- 1:29Speaker 3: just make sure you get them.
- 1:30Speaker 2: So.
- 1:30Speaker 3: Their official debut is July eleventh, it's the National Barbie

- 1:38Speaker 3: cousin Jeanie goes to that she loves it. I hope
- 1:40Speaker 3: she's hearing this story.
