The Canadian women *just* missed the podium in the 4x200m freestyle relay <\/span>#tokyo2020<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

But at the end of the day, Summer McIntosh, Kayla Sanchez, Rebecca Smith and Penny Oleksiak still set a Canadian record with a time of seven minutes, 43.77 seconds\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u27a2<\/span> RON POPEIL<\/b>\u00a0. . . the genius who amassed a $200 million fortune selling products like the Veg-O-Matic, Mr. Microphone, the Pocket Fisherman, and the Inside the Shell Egg Scrambler . . . died yesterday.\u00a0 He was 86.<\/span><\/p>\n

Popeil basically invented the infomercial, selling products from his Ronco company on late night TV . . . beginning with the Chop-O-Matic in 1959.\u00a0 His commercials also spawned catchphrases like, “But wait, there’s more!” and “As seen on TV.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Not to mention “Set it and forget it,” the slogan for his Showtime Rotisserie and Barbeque . . .\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But right now, we’d like to pay tribute to Ron, with his\u00a0<\/span>commercial<\/span><\/a>\u00a0for the product that inspired many a radio talent.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>\u27a2 <\/span>A 13-year-old Australian girl named Rylee Stuart was eating Doritos last week, and she came across a “puffy” chip, which isn’t THAT different from those 3-D Doritos.<\/span><\/p>\n

She posted it on TikTok, and asked people if she should eat it or try to sell it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But then the auction got shut down. That’s when Doritos stepped in, and offered Rylee $20,000 for the chip.\u00a0 Not because they want to investigate it . . . it’s just a chip that has a big pocket of air inside . . . they just saw an opportunity to turn it into a marketing thing.<\/span><\/p>\n

They said, quote, “We’ve been so impressed with Rylee’s boldness and entrepreneurial spirit, so we wanted to make sure the Stuart family were rewarded for their creativity and love for Doritos.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u27a2 <\/span>This happened last year, but it’s making the rounds now.\u00a0 A couple was having an outdoor wedding, and when the officiant asked if there were any objections . . . a dog started\u00a0<\/span>barking<\/span><\/a>\u00a0right on cue.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u27a2<\/span>It was announced yesterday that a “heart-related incident” is what caused\u00a0<\/span>BOB ODENKIRK<\/b>\u00a0to collapse Tuesday on the set of\u00a0<\/span>“Better Call Saul”<\/i><\/b>.\u00a0 He’s still in the hospital, but his son says, quote, “He’s going to be okay.” Bob collapsed on the set of\u00a0<\/span>“Better Call Saul”<\/i><\/b>\u00a0in Albuquerque, New Mexico on Tuesday.\u00a0 He’s 58 years old.<\/span><\/p>\n
