Sea Squirts Squash Cancer PLUS a woman's suitcase vibrates at the airport

Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: a Columbia University study of 11,000 office workers finds the best way to counter sitting is a five-minute walk every hour, boosting mood, alertness, and productivity; University of South Florida researchers report toxins tied to Antarctic sea squirts show early promise against melanoma, killing cancer in mice without harming them, though producing enough compound remains a challenge; Montana volunteers called the “Montana Bar Fairies” leave $5 coffee gift cards on cars left overnight at bars to reward people for not driving drunk; Kelsey becomes the first American woman to row solo from California to Hawaii, completing the ~2,400-mile trip in 43 days on her boat The Lily and setting a new fastest time; and an airport moment where a vibrating suitcase turns out to contain an electric toothbrush.
