Sunday ninety nine point one, Houston's Best Variety the eighties
nineties and Today I'm Dana with producer Anthony and the
three Things you need to know to get your Monday
May fifth Sink Go to Mayo Days started well. We
Houston still the number one moving destination according to Penske
Truck Rental survey. They based this on the number of
(00:23):
one way customer truck rentals. Houston's number one for the
fourth consecutive year. And the reasons people are moving to Houston.
They want to be close to loved ones, job opportunities,
the lower cost of living, and the need for more space.
All good reasons to come.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Excellent reasons.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Right now, let's talk student loans. Ah it starts today.
Student loans that are in default will be referred to collections.
Currently five point three million borrowers are in default of
their federal student loans. The loans had been put on hold,
but that's all over.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Now.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
If you are in default, you're going to be given
options from the Education Department. They're going to start the communications.
You've got to respond to them. The least it can
do is affect your credit and then there's so much
more they can garnish your wages, so you gotta make
sure you are in communication with them. And then the
Rocket's done. What a season. They lost to Golden State
(01:18):
here in Houston last night, one o three to eighty nine.
Now there might be changes in the front office. We'll
have to see what's up next for our Rockets. Also,
the twenty twenty five NBA Draft combine begins on May
eleventh and runs through the eighteenth. Your weather today, some
clouds moving in, starting out partly sunny, but we've got
(01:39):
rain and more rain tomorrow. Fifty percent chance this afternoon,
a sixty percent chance tonight, and an eighty percent chance
of rain tomorrow. Right now, it's we're going to go
up to seventy five right now, sixty three in uptown,
and you're up to date on sunny. Tell me something
good brought to us by our friends at Goodwill Houston,
well out in Alvin. Their little league baseball team, the
(02:01):
twelve and Unders, doing lots more than winning. They just
wrapped up their regular season totally undefeated, and kids have
been celebrating in a very unorthodox way, buzzing their coach's
hair to celebrate. Coach Smith said he wanted to do
something fun and memorable, and these post game haircuts, each
(02:23):
player gets a chance to do it. They chat about
the game and it's just it's kind of a different environments,
something different, and it's definitely keeping the kids moving.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
That's fun.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Congratulations to the Alvin twelve and under or an undefeated season.
That's pretty amazing. Producer Anthony Dan. This is so sweet.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
May is National Foster care Month and recently there was
a May fourth themed adoption event where some families got
a little bigger. It was over at the Harris County
Juvenile Courthouse and there was Star Wars theme music playing
characters roam in the halls. The event is all in
aid to the challenging foster care and adoption situation across Texas.
The state's Department of Family and Protective Services as there
are two hundred and forty five kids in the critical
(03:02):
care unit waiting for adoption. So whoever is out there
that's willing and able to open their homes, so they're
certainly ready and willing to accept. You and Dan, you
could say it was a success because thirty five foster
kids were officially adopted by twenty five families.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
It's amazing.
