rock one to one point five IBAFM.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
What's going on? Hannah here?
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Getting ready to get my weekends started.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Ben, you are taking over next though. Sorry, man, it's
all good.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
It isn't Friday, you know, so as we talked about
last Friday, it is kind of.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Like, wait, Chee gets to go enjoy that weekend now,
and I'm.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
But you know, I love my job. This is too
much fun, so I never get there.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
It's coming.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah. And also we are preparing to move to a
new operating system, and so I've got some new computers
that have been installed, one that was refurbished. So levels
for those audio nuts up there who really dig that stuff,
they may be all over.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
The place for the next couple of days, so just
kind of be aware of that.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
I'm still getting kind of a hold or a grasp
fund where everything needs to be on the board. That's
really like inside baseball talk. But if things seem out
of whack, that's what it is.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Yeah, they probably are, and it's fine. We'll get there.
Don't worry.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
We'll get there. We always do. We always do. So
all right, let's get into your one big thing.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
All right, So I want to talk about after high
school going to college.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Did you go to like a typical four year college.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Yes, but I went to Madison Area Technical College for
a year before I then became a u W Milwaukee panther.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Yes, okay, Well then we were in the same neck
of the woods because I went to Marquette, okay in Milwaukee.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Do you feel like you needed to go to school
for your job? Absolutely not.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
For this.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Anybody could do this, can't totally. Yeah, No, I feel
the same way.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Although I originally was going to school to be a
doctor and that just wasn't working out.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
I was going to school to be a teacher. Oh,
you would have been a great teacher. Well that's so.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I don't know if you know this, Bobbie or not,
but I coached youth football in this area for like
twelve years, and that's where I always said I got
my teaching fixed coaching youth football.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
So yeah, well that's true. Well that's when you're great
at that too, So thank you.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
But now I get to do this every day, which
I love to which is fun. It is most days
I got a sidetracked. Okay, So I want to talk
about this because there's.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Some new information coming out and a new survey of
recent public high school graduates and their parents found that
only twenty two percent.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Feel very prepared for life after graduation.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Over a third of grads wish their high school taught
more about like post high school life, and thirty seven
percent wish they learned more job skills, which is hands
down so tu, I've been saying for forever that there
should be an adulting class so that teaches you how
to do your taxes and about insurance because both of
those things kick my butt.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Yeah, that and also like investing for like retirement, things
like that. Those are all things that you just learn
in a real quick manner. Hopefully you do. If you don't,
you're kind of sol But yeah, there needs to be
an adulting class.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I mean, you have parents that maybe help you out,
but if your parents aren't able to or you don't
have that luxury, like you kind of just figured out
on your own, which is not the.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Best way to go about it.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
So but what really, I guess didn't surprise me because
that also been saying this for a while. After graduating,
fifty percent of teens plan to go to a four
year college or university. Only half are planning to do that. Now.
I would have loved to see that to statistic like
ten years ago. Yeah, twenty four percent looking to get
a job, twenty one are going to a two year college,
and nine percent plan to go to a trade school,
(03:18):
which is really sad because that nine percent should be
bumped up because the trades are where it's at these days.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
They are well And we've talked about AI together before
during segments like this, and I feel sometimes that, you know,
those jobs that people are going to four year institutions
for a lot of those are jobs that may be
eliminated by artificial intelligence. Who knows, maybe not, but that's
just kind of the way I think things maybe headed still,
(03:43):
the trades, anything like that, blue collar stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Man, oh, it's the future, I think totally.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
And like I've said for like a while, obviously my
daughter is very far from this age, as she's only
seventeen months, but if it's still like, if it's still
then what it's like now, I would absolutely support her
not needing to go to a four year college.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah, yeah, I'm with you on that one hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
By the way, I'll go ahead go ahead, must.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Be a Friday.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
On the other side of things, you do learn more
in college than just like the book stuff, right, Like
I learned a lot about living independently and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
So there is something to be sad about going to
school for that reason.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yeah, yeah, one hundred percent, and too, like if your
parents don't help you out, you learn a lot of
those life lessons. Well, you have to grow up really
quick if you're kind of on your own through college.
But I was going to say before, people need to
go follow you on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok even. I think
you're on TikTok too. You posted up a video earlier
this week of your daughter. Was she like, I think
she was like enjoying a sprinkler or something, maybe for
(04:42):
the first time. She looked like she was having the
time of her life.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
This is my kid.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
She's like one of those like little water pads where
the water shoots up. Yeah, she's literally just crawling around
it trying to drink the water.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
That's it. She's just trying to drink the water.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
I'm like, it looks like we never give this kid
any kind of liquid. And then we were with my
nieces that last weekend, you know, and they have one
as well, And sure enough, they're all playing on it.
And my kid literally has a container she's trying to
fill with water to drink it.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Again, always water is always the best water, THO would
tastes so good. We all survived it. Gonna be all right, Hannah.
Enjoy your weekend talk again Monday. Thanks you too,
