Sunday ninety nine point one. I'm Dana with producer Anthony.
We have Houston's best variety of the eighties, nineties and
today and the three things you need to know to
get your Wednesday, August sixth started well, no more phones
in Texas classrooms. I know it's a bummer, but you'll
get through it and then you'll learn so much, I
promise kids getting ready for back to school. HISD is
(00:22):
rolling out the band on cell phones. Not only cell phones, though, tablets,
smart watches, headphones, earbuds, and there are some medical exceptions
you can check with your school. Now, speaking of schools,
two years after the state took over HISD schools, there
are no F rated schools. A report released yesterday, Freddy
darn good. This is the first time that's happened since
(00:43):
twenty eighteen. Now, one hundred and ninety seven of the
two hundred and seventy three HISD campuses got an A
or a B. Eighty two schools that were A D
or an F last year are now up to an
A or B day. Huge success, right, big improvement. I'll
tell your really big success. We are going to the
Little League World Series in Williamsport. Lamar Little League from Richmond.

World Series. Lamar is going to rep the Southwest region
as they try to bring a world championship to Fort
Ben County. The series runs August thirteenth through the ts YO.

food at a great price, but the bigger purpose supporting
our Houston Food Bank. Yes, you can find out the details.
Houston Restaurantweeks dot Com producer Anthony Dane.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
This is incredible. Even more reasons to support our Houston
Food Bank. We know how amazing it is, but many
of us may not even realize that they actually help
with more than just food. As part of its school programs,
the Food Bank gets much needed school supplies the students
and teachers in low income schools. Brian Green, the president
of the Food Bank, explains that one reason they're able
to assist as they do is because of logistics. They
run sixty trucks a day delivering food to a network
(02:29):
of some sixteen hundred partners, and they realized, hey, we
can handle non food as well. It's something that's grown
to be quite big too.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Last year they.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Distributed supplies to about eleven thousand teachers and two hundred
and sixty different schools, and they want to keep it going.
They run programs like their Backpack, Buddies, School Market and
Kids Cafe. They say, no matter the cost, the goal
in the end is to help our teachers, students and
their families. So great job right to our Houston Food
Bank making sure there's not only food on the table,
but supplies in our schools as well.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
That is awesome And the Houston Zoo talk about awesome
They welcomed nine hundred athletes, coaches and families from the
twenty twenty five Genuine Cup. This is an international soccer
tournament designed for neurodivisive individuals with developmental difficulties. All twelve
teams had special access to the Zoo. They could explore
(03:18):
exhibits there. We were able to engage in animal centered
programs and I did not realize, but the zoo is
a certified autism center. You can check out the details
and find out more at Houston Zoo dot org. And
for our feel good stories, E Day Mornings set a
preset on the new and improved iHeartRadio app to Sunny
(03:39):
Natty nine point one, Sunday naety nine point one, Houston's
best variety of the eighties nineties, and Today I'm Dana
with producer Anthony, and we learned in our nearly Impossible
question the average time we go to bed at night
eleven o'clock eleven of us. I can't even comprehend that
I can barely stay up past nine o'clock. Well, it's
our hour, our hour super early. It's different then on
(04:00):
the weekends. I was really surprised because you know, we're
supposed to get eight hours of sleep and eleven o'clock
is really pushing that. So in Anthony, I'm a four
hour a night person. That's all I need. I literally
crazy pop up after four hours. But in all fairness,
I also take a nap, correct I always forget that
about you. Yeah, that is a very important part of
(04:21):
my day. I don't do that. That's the difference.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Like maybe every now and then, like if I'm just
feeling it, I'll let myself get like a twenty thirty,
you know, little cat nap thing, but like day to
day usually not.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
That's all my kids know is mom. They all have
PTSD because of they woke up because I must get
a nap in I'll never forget going to speaking at
career day at the kids' school, and I would always
tell the kids that if missus tyson doesn't get a nap,
I literally grow like fangs and claws on my hands.
I get very angry. Maya need to go to sleep
(04:52):
in the afternoon.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
My mom was in a similar both though, because she
would I know, I told you she would work overnight,
so she had the blackout curtains and everything, and there
was a time window where it was like, hey, you
need to leave her alone.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
So she can sleep. It got asleep because I can't
forget it. I function after that. So it's four hours
of sleep a night, but then a nap in the afternoon. Right,
it doesn't quite add up to eight hours. But I
think of the way I roll.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
I think I'm around five six average, you know, that's
usually where I go.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Rarely do I get eight. It's usually about you know,
clubs before the pandemic, where Anthony was out jamming at
clubs playing the guitar and singing. Then use it and
think you got oh my gosh, you'd get home. Yeah, midnight.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
There were so many times staying where I would uh
And I know, I know, I've told you the stories.
But like if I if it went out too late,
I'd be I'd be like looking at my phone in
the time and be like hmm, And I'm like, I'm
wrestling with myself. Okay, how much if I drive home? Now,
how much sleep can I get? Or it would it
be easier for me to just come to the garage
here and just take a nap or come to the
office or sleep. Yeah, that's when that's when I knew.
(05:51):
When when again, come when? So when everything gets shut
down and it's like and then you take a breath
and it's like, hold on a second.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
What am I doing here? Yeah? What am I doing?
How did I do that? Anyway, we'd love to hear
about you. Is eleven o'clock the time you go to bed?
Sleep habits? And how are you at, you know, getting
your required sleep? Are you a four hour night person?
Data that that eight hours? Like my daughter's stuck. I
need my eight hours. I get it? Seven ninety nine
(06:18):
one Sunday ninety nine point one Houston's Best Variety of
the eighties nineties. And today I'm Data with producer Anthony
and we're talking about our sleeping habits. We learned that
the majority of us go to bed at eleven hard
to get your eight hours asleep in If you're an
early morning person like us, and we've got Rita working
at a clinic in Perland, Rita, what's it for you?
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Well, for me, I like to start going to bed
at ten, but I'm probably not a sleep until eleven.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Don't you think that's a little bit late?
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I feel like if I get four to five hours,
I'm good. Wow?
Speaker 1 (06:50):
For why kind of peak? That's like a data. Yeah.
So so you work at a clinic. What kind of clinic.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
It's a medical clinic. Okay, in a medical center.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
You've got to be there all day. What are your
hours at work?
Speaker 3 (07:01):
I work ten hour shifts all Wow.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
How do you how do you deal with the four
hour of night's sleep? Like? Do you eat special? Do
you exercise? How do you fit that into your world?
Because that's kind of extreme.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Yeah. I think the exercising has a lot to do
with it, because I go after work ten hours and
I'm still wound up. Wow.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
That's incredible. That is so you're just kind of a
naturally high energy person.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
I don't know if it's the hat or if I
just have a lot on my mind.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yep, okay, so you can't get the mind. Do you
drink coffee?
Speaker 3 (07:32):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Okay, you know, I stop drinking coffee, and I still
don't sleep like I still just sleep four hours and
then I'm up at two thirty or two o'clock, wide awake,
ready to go.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Have you always been that way?
Speaker 3 (07:42):
I've always been that way? Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Are you married?
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I'm married.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Does your husband sleep normal hours? No?
Speaker 3 (07:48):
No, he doesn't. He works well when I met him,
and he worked at a night club. Now he works
at venues, so we have blackout curtains.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Just oh, sleep whenever you can. I love that. What
an exciting life, Riata. Well, as long as you keep
yourself healthy, you eat well and exercise. They say sometimes
those shifts can really affect your health. But it seems
like you've totally got it under control. I yeah, So
forget about eight hours of sleep for Rita. She's going
to go on fourida five like us, Anthony, Rita, what
(08:20):
a delight. And how did you find Sonny?
