Richard Caron joined the TGS to talk about his quest to eat every Fat Burger in Winnipeg. But first, we needed to know exactly “what is a fat burger’. Richard says they are a giant burger in the traditional sense, with tomatoes lettuce and cheese, but the key ingredient is meat sauce that resembles chili, but whiteout the beans. Caron says a lot of local restaurants in Winnipeg took a hit during the pandemic lockdowns. So far Richard has has eaten and reviewed dozens of Fat Boys, but since his quest hit the media, the retaurants that serve the sandwich went from 50 locations to 90. He is eating them at a pace of one a week.

This news reporter went viral over the weekend with shock and concern. Alissa Carlson of KCAL News was about to start her weather forecast that Saturday morning when her eyes suddenly rolled back. She tried to keep smiling while on camera but already fell on her desk, then on the ground. Anchors Nichelle Medina and Rachel Kim didn’t seem to notice at first, as Kim even jokingly told Carlson that it’s really “the calm before the storm” while her eyes were already rolling. But as Carlson collapses, Kim is visibly disturbed as she lets out an “Oh,” with Medina calling for a break. Mike Dello Stritto, CBS Los Angeles Vice President and News Director, also told TMZ that she was brought to the hospital after colleagues took “immediate action.” At 2:32 a.m. of March 19, Carlson wrote a Facebook post thanking everyone for their support. “Thanks for all the texts, calls, and well wishes,” she said. “I am going to be ok!” At 4:46 a.m., KCAL News on Twitter said Carlson is already taking a rest and recovering. She’ll be back on air “as soon as she’s well enough to return,” the station added in a separate statement. Conditions that can cause fainting include heart problems. seizures, low blood sugar, anemia, and nervous system problems.
