Inside Copy: Nana-Imo, Walking Sharks, and Ranch Dressing

Nobody needed any of this information. That's exactly why it's here.

A cookie chain put a Nanaimo bar on their menu and filmed Americans trying to say the word. The mayor of Nanaimo has opinions about this. Europeans attending the FIFA World Cup are discovering ranch dressing for the first time and cannot stop talking about it. Scientists in Australia have identified a new species of shark that can walk across beaches on its fins. It is approximately three feet long. Shane and Ryan work through all of it, including the actual origin story of the Nanaimo bar, which turns out to be murkier than the city of Nanaimo would prefer, and whether a walking shark is terrifying or just a little fish with ambition.

More people are killed by cows every year. Make of that what you will.
