Hi Friends, I'm Scott. This is the What a Weird Week Show, a Top Ten Countdown of weird news. See Shownotes at https://www.shownotes.page

Here's the Top Ten for Season 4, Episode 58 first published on Friday Nov. 3rd, 2023... ❿ This week, I'm playing catch-up on a few stories because last week was our Halloween special... kicking things off at number ten is the heroic world record where a bunch of people did a shot of booze off a ski... ❾ Another Catch-up... the loudest house cat purr world record belongs to Bella the cat from the UK who can purr somewhat loudly... ❽ Next we're catching up on the Glass Dancing World Record as reported by Hoops Hooper at UPI... a man in Cyprus did a dance while balancing 319 wine glasses on his head... that's a new world record! ❼ Here's another one that got bumped for the Halloween episode last week... headline from Business Insider: "A man posed as a mannequin in a shop window to steal jewelry after hours, Polish police say" ❻ Bears try to steal minivan, escape arrest... ❺ Possible Spiderman World Record! ❹ OK... earmuffs for the kids on this one... and it's gross... a Charity Shop/ Thrift Store in the UK had to post this on their social media... Please stop (see shownotes for full headline) ❸ @GWR headline: "Colossal cup of ‘smelly’ instant noodles sets record in China"... ❷ A pig named Kevin Bacon who escaped from his Pennsylvania home has returned after 17 days on the loose... Honorable Mention this week goes to the staff at Buzzfeed who are promoting a delicious Croissant Candle that costs around 65 bucks... ❶ The day after Halloween Mariah Carey announced that it was time once again to enjoy her song "All I want for Christmas is You".

- It is the song that famously took 15 minutes to write and makes Mariah Carey around 3 million dollars per year.

- She is also being sued again over that song.
