You listening Morning Drive with Christie Liveon demand. Mah, I'll tell you
who had an amazing weekend, thedude who was rescued from the Santa Cruz
Mountains. Did you hear about thisstory over the weekend? This guy went
hiking two weeks ago. He didn'teven have a shirt on because he was
(00:21):
like, oh, I'll be rightback. I'm just gonna go, like,
you know, take a quick walkin the mountains. Why do people
always do that? I don't know, I don't know. He took like
a little knife, his shoes,he had some pants on, and I
don't know what else he had,but that's it. And he went on
a hike and got lost. Andhe said all of his usual landmarks got
(00:42):
wiped away during the the fires,so he didn't know where he was.
Faithfully they found him, but tendays that's a long time. He said.
He was drinking water from his boot. You gotta do what you gotta
do to survive. Why a boot, though, because well what else is
he gonna put it in? Imean, yeah, you couldn't cup it
(01:04):
in your hands. You gotta drinkit out of your shoe. Look,
Christy, that's ten days out inSana Cruz Mountains. He's gonna survive somehow.
I just wonder. I always think, well, it's never gonna happen
to me because I'm not hiking inthe mountains by myself. I'm sorry,
I'm not leaving my house with noshirt off. I'm like, they're just
gonna overwalk. Guys, that's nevergonna happen. So let's just start there.
(01:26):
But on the off chance that you'reone of these people who likes to
go out and hike in the wilderness, I wonder, how do you find
water? That is always the question, like what can you drink? Because
you're not allowed to just drink anyold water, right, I don't think
so, I wouldn't know that question, seem I think. Okay, So
(01:47):
I was reading and it says thatif you are looking for water, that
you should look for lush vegetation,so a lot of things growing, because
that means there might be a watersource around you, okay, you know,
or around that area, and thenyou can dig a hole in the
area and then it should pool water. All right, just in case we
(02:08):
ever get lost hiking. I don'tknow if that advice is is gonna save
your life? One day. Butjust to know my heart is in the
right place, is I can appreciatethat. It would be interesting to know.
Like if you are one of thosepeople who likes to hike, and
you know you have some survival knowledge, maybe your boy scout or a girl
scout or what do you take withyou? Like, what should you take
(02:30):
with you? Well, it's agood idea. I'm sure to bring a
knife, one of those Swiss armyknives. Yeah, how about a map
and a cell phone bruh, yeah. Or I just saw a whistle.
A whistle my help, Like,carry a whistle with you so somebody can
hear you. He did say.The guy who was lost in the Santa
Cruz Mountains for ten days and wasjust found, he was yelling for help,
and people kept reporting that they heardsomeone yelling for help. They just
(02:54):
couldn't pinpoint where he was the noisewas coming from. But that actually did
help save him because he kept yellinghelp, help, help me, help
me, and burrito bowl and tacobecause he said that's what he kept thinking
about. So he was like,Oh, I just want a burrito ball,
I just want a taco. Somebodyhelped me. Chapau Leisha hook him
(03:15):
up or something. But glad he'ssafe. Yeah. And if you do

(03:40):
for the Crazy Trainer One Morning Driveswith Christie Live. Today, the Crazy
Train is headed out to Sandwich,Kent. I believe that's overseas where Francis
(04:02):
McGirk, a fifty year old millionairegolf pro, actually set his house on
fire. The roof den Rooth deRufe is on fire. We don't need
no water because I want it toburn because I don't want my ex wife
to have the house, which isexactly why this man set his one million
(04:27):
dollar seafront home in Kent on fire. He said, I don't want the
bip to have everything. Oh,that's so messed up. He literally waited
till his wife and three daughters wereat a dinner party, went inside the
house, locked the doors, triedto burn the couch cushions, and they
didn't set on fire. So whatdid he do? He was like,
(04:50):
oh, let me get some lighterfluid and try something else. God ended
up sparking the house, causing majordamage. And now he's not even gonna
face charg really. Yeah, heappeared in court, but it looks like
he's going to avoid a prison sentencefor the incident. But he said,
I don't want her to have it, so I'd rather burn it to the
(05:10):
ground. That is spite on awhole other level. Time. That's yeah,
oh, man, burn some clothesor something outside on the front.
Don't burn anything. How about that? An okay? How about don't burn
anything? How about just act likea mature adult and walk away from a
(05:30):
relationship that doesn't work. Karina's like, well, they you should have.
You should have just set the caron fire, not the house. One
point one million dollar house. No, Brauh. That is crazy. That
is your daily crazy news story.You can ride the crazy train every weekday
at sevent ten and nine forty canbe playing with people's emotions, just trying
(05:51):
to tell you. I wonder ifhe was singing burning down the house when
he was doing it. No,I'm pretty sure wasn't thinking anything. Morning
Drive with Christie Live on eighties Plusat one oh three point seven, It's
time for the great debate when itcomes to showing up for your friends for
(06:16):
their birthday? Is your presence thepresent? That is this Morning's question.
Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday,we always debate a topic and producer Karna
has an issue with one of herfriends right now. So what's going on?
My friend's having a birthday brunch.I'm gonna go and I'm bringing wine.
We're all gonna probably split the check. But I also feel like I
(06:39):
probably shouldn't have to give her agift because I'm already gonna spend at least
one hundred dollars on this brunch.But that's not money you're spending on your
friend. That's money you're spending onyourself. Showing up, buying the wine
that you like to drink and buyingyour food. That is totally separate from
you getting your friend a birthday gift. It's like somebody whose birthday is right
(07:01):
around Christmas and you're like, here'syour Christmas slash birthday gift. Well,
you're doing a slash birthday gift rightnow, and that's not okay. It's
not okay. Don't do that that. Don't do that. So I'm being
cheap and tackie. Yes, thatis not okay. If she's inviting everyone
to brunch, it would be thesame as you guys going out to eat
(07:23):
regardless. Yeah, so her birthdayis on top of that. Oh my
gosh. It's like the people whoinvite you to our birthday party and then
they ask you to bring your ownalcohol, they ask you to bring a
dish, and then you still haveto give them a gift. Yes,
Like it's their birthday and that's whatyou're supposed to do. I feel like,
if it's your birthday and you're askingpeople to attend something for you,
(07:45):
then they should host that. Ifit's your friend, then you should be
willing and happy to contribute to thecelebration of your friend's life. Don't be
stingy. Stuff is not cheap nowadays. It doesn't have to be expensive.
I have an extra bathroom Bodyworks candle, and you can give it to her.
It'll be halfway melted out. Ikeep the candles when they do the
(08:09):
sale because then you can always haveone and give it as a gift.
That's what my sister does. ButI think that you should bring a gift.
What do you think that is thismorning's Great Debate. Her birthday gift?
Is my presence already being there?One A sixty six nine hundred one
(08:31):
three seven. Please call until Karinashe is being a stingy friend. Or
cap the red microphone on our iHeartRadioapp and let her know okay that she
needs to do better in life.Hear from your next back to the Great
Depbateies plus at one three point seven. Is your presence present enough for your
(08:58):
friend's birthday celebration? That is thequestion this morning for the Great Debate.
Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday,we always talk about a topic and producer
Karna has a friend whose birthday's comingup. She was invited to a birthday
brunch and she feels like, I'malready going, I'm paying for food.
Why should I have to bring agift on top of it? Michelle,
thank you so much for weighing in. Do you think that's rude to just
(09:20):
show up without a gift? Idon't think it is, because you don't
know what someone's financial circumstances are,and each persons different, and so even
though you may not talk about ita fifty dollars dinner, even if you're
buying it for yourself, you're showingup. So to me, time is
the most valuable thing that one cangive, period over anything that you could
(09:43):
give them as a gift. Sowhen you give somebody your time, that
is the most valuable thing you cangive them, and so therefore that's the
gift. Okay, then well wewill note your vote. Thank you so
much for the call, Michelle.Good morning, Denise. Thanks for weighing
in on the Great Debate. Doyou think producer Karina needs to show up
(10:07):
with a gift or is her presencethe present with me personally? Okay,
So what I do is I bringsomething up to share obviously, but I'm
like an amateur photographer, so Iwill take pictures and documents. So that's
my gift to the person whose birthdayit is. See. I think that's
perfect. When you give someone agift, it doesn't have to be expensive.
It could be a gift of yourtalent, your time. You could
(10:31):
offer to dog sit for them,walk their dog. It doesn't have to
be expensive. I just think youshow it up saying I'm going and that's
enough. Why do they want somethingelse? It's just not the right spirit.
I'll mean, come on, thereyou go. Thank you, Denise.
I appreciate it. Thank you,ladies. Great day you two one
(10:52):
eight sixty six nine hundred and onethree seven is the phone number, or
you can always tap the red microphoneon our iHeart radio app to jump in
and join in. Hey no,if they're lucky, I will buy my
card and happy birthday. Thank youfor the talk, pag What are your
thoughts? Is just showing up andyour presence being the present enough for a
(11:16):
friend's birthday celebration? Or is producerKrina just not operating in the spirit of
being a good friend. That's that'sthe right answer right there. But what
do you think? Give me acall here from you next back to the
great debate, gadies, plus atone three point seven. That Janet song
(11:39):
is the perfect lead into this.What have you done for me lately?
If your friend is having a birthdaycelebration and they invite you, you show
up and pay for your food.Is that present enough or should you have
to bring a gift? That isthe uh situation producer Karina has found herself
in, and that is this morning'sgreat debate topic to talk back here,
(12:01):
Karna's wrong, she should give hera birthday gift for Carlos. I'm a
Christie on this one. Thank youvery much, sir. I appreciate you.
Appreciate the talk back as well.Marty, thank you for weighing in
on this morning's great debate. Whatdo you think I'm in a similar situation.
My good friend's son is turning twentyone. We're gonna go golfing.
I'm paying for it, but Ialso think I should buy something for it
(12:22):
for the twenty first See, that'sthe thoughtful thing to do, and it's
the thought that counts. Oh yeah, because I want to golf. I
want to spend time, you know, see a partner celebration. So but
I think I still want to bea gift. All the golf is gonna
be pretty expensive because they're very outin the monter Egg Dang, you know
that is going to be a grit. But the fact that you're like,
(12:43):
hey, I'm going to show upto do this fun thing, so of
course I'm gonna pay my way.But at the same time, you're honoring
their celebration. I think that's theright thing to do. Yeah, just
a small game. The wine tobe a gift. Yeah, maybe I'll
just regift that and wrap it.At least did something. Shoot, thanks
for the call, Marty. AllRight, all right, Valerie, thanks
(13:05):
for calling away in on this morning'sgreat debate. If your friend is having
a birthday celebration, is you justshowing up empty handed count as a gift?
You know what? I don't thinkthere's a right or a wrong answer
for this. It depends on everybody'spersonal preference. Okay, but what do
(13:26):
you do? I like to givesomebody something, even if it's just a
little something. It doesn't have tobe expensive, but you do a little
something. That is the point.Okay, And that's all I'm saying.
Doesn't have to be expensive, butit is the thought that counts. And
just showing up, like why shouldI have to bring anything? Is the
wrong spirit. Just saying thank youfor the call, Valerie. You're working,
(13:50):
