Researchers in Rio de Janeiro found high levels of cocaine in sharp-nosed sharks, reportedly affecting their hunting skills. In a separate news item, a seventh grader won a citywide spelling bee with the word "myocarditis." The hosts find the choice of word notable given recent public health discussions and the news anchor's inability to pronounce it.
