Transcript

What BBN said on air. Comedy, with fictional anchors.

1. 

   Gloria VanceA man took a selfie in a Colombian lagoon, captioned it with the wrong species, and ended up a co-author in a scientific journal.

2. 

   Gloria VanceJeremiah Harris wrote Victoria amazonica. A waterlily expert at Kew noticed the river lies outside that plant's known range.

3. 

   Gloria VanceWith us is Marisol Yeatman, an abundance coach. Ms. Yeatman, did you manifest this?

4. MY

   Marisol YeatmanYes. I called this in, and I want that on the record. I called it in on the twenty-eighth of October.

5. 

   Gloria VanceThat is tomorrow. The paper is in Phytotaxa, and the new species is Victoria colombiana.

6. MY

   Marisol YeatmanTime is a loop, Gloria. This jar holds lagoon water I have personally charged.

7. MY

   Marisol YeatmanHarris was wrong with total commitment, and that is a method I teach.

8. 

   Gloria VanceSo the wrong label helped.

9. MY

   Marisol YeatmanThe universe corrected him, to be exact. I called that in on the thirtieth.

10. 

    Gloria VanceResearchers say only thirty to fifty plants remain in the wild. They plan to seek a critically endangered label. Did your jar help with that?

11. MY

    Marisol YeatmanThe jar is a partner in this.

12. MY

    Marisol YeatmanI called in the leaves too, which are visible from space, and I called that in on the first of November.

13. 

    Gloria VanceThe leaves reach six point six feet across. You are still getting later.

14. 

    Gloria VanceVerdict: one wrong caption, zero credit to the jar.

15. 

    Gloria VanceMs. Yeatman, the plant was photographed in twenty twenty-one. You called it in next week. The lily has the better paperwork.
