Speaker 1 (00:01):
Listening Morning Drive with Christie live on demand.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
It is six twenty five, and oh, my goodness, it
is a line we are all familiar with.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
The feeling.

Speaker 4 (00:14):
We're not in Kansas anymore, but we ain't.

Speaker 5 (00:16):
Expect it to be talking about the Bay Area.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
It is not Kansas, Dorothy, it is the Bay Area.
And that storm over the weekend, my goodness. Maybe you
have not seen the video on social media, but there
was a real life tornado. People in San Francisco got
the tornado warning right on Saturday morning, but flash forward
to later on that afternoon Scott's Valley near Santa Cruz,

(00:43):
there was an actual tornado.

Speaker 6 (00:44):
I couldn't believe. Christy. You're like, there's a tornado. Did
you see the video?

Speaker 7 (00:48):
And it is a real tornado, flipping cars all of
the things, like the earthlike country.

Speaker 5 (00:54):
What you talking about?

Speaker 7 (00:55):
This is not in Scott's Valley. You're like, yes, this
is literally in Scott's Valley.

Speaker 6 (00:59):
That was crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
It was absolutely insane this weekend. So I know a
lot of people got the alert and then turned over
and went back to sleep, like what It's kind of
like the tsunami warning last week, Like what I what
is this?

Speaker 5 (01:12):
I know was playing.

Speaker 7 (01:13):
Fortunately nobody was killed because it looked pretty bad, but
they said about five people were injured.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
But yeah, man, do you know what you're supposed to
do in the event of a tornado?

Speaker 6 (01:22):
Oh no, Hi, I don't know. Run, I don't know,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
Run, Hi, Run is the number one thing you are
not supposed to do. Really, yes, don't get in your
car and think you can out drive it like they
do in the movies, because that does not happen.

Speaker 5 (01:36):
Do not run.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
It's kind of like what you do the opposite of
an earthquake, becase, you're supposed to drop and then kind
of cover where you're at and hold on. If there's
actually a tornado, because clearly now it could happen in
the Bay Area, you're supposed to move away from the windows,
move away from the hallway, and get into the innermost
part of the building if you are inside of a building. Okay,

(02:01):
So my friend Sammy, they were at home, grabbed their cat,
their roommate, put themselves in the bathroom. Ah okay, Because
you know, we don't really have basements, we don't in
California's We can't go to the basement, but get down
against a strong wall in case it takes the roof off.
But yeah, just to be safe, make sure you're away
from the walls. I mean yeah the windows.

Speaker 6 (02:23):
From the windows. Still good to know because yeah, not
be running. No, but now don't do that. Do not run.

Speaker 5 (02:30):
Okay, it's not gonna happen. It's not gonna work. So
just the heads up.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
All right, hopefully you are safe and sound this Monday morning.
Let's get your music going though, to help you get
through this crazy commute.

Speaker 5 (02:42):
Ario Speedwagon.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Like I said, it's some kinny on the way Christie Live,
like you know, you know a station on land still
one underway, wasn't on a plane but still.

Speaker 6 (02:53):
But I think a lot of people don't know that.
It's Navy pilots in Top Gun. I didn't know that,
so you don't.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
I got to represent thank you shipmates if you served,
and if you served in any branch. Definitely want to
show you some love this holiday season. My name's Christy.
That's producer Karina. And you know Tom Cruise was in
Top Gun. He was also in Maverick, and he also
became the highest paid ever for a single movie role

(03:20):
because of Top Gun Maverick. Dang, how much money you
think you got paid?

Speaker 6 (03:24):
Oh, I don't know. I'm gonna say thirteen mil.

Speaker 5 (03:27):
Thirteen million dollars, Nope.

Speaker 6 (03:30):
Twenty mil.

Speaker 4 (03:31):
Hi.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
He actually upfront he got fourteen million dollars.

Speaker 5 (03:38):
But that's not how much he made from the movie roll.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
The old Tom Cruise said, Okay, I will do this
Top Gun Maverick, and he's doing a third two, which
I'm super excited about, but I also want a percentage
smart of the revenue. And Top Gun Maverick made over
one point four billion dollars. So Tom Cruise got over

(04:05):
one hundred million dollars.

Speaker 6 (04:09):
That's smart, though, that's really smart.

Speaker 5 (04:11):
That is so crazy just to be you know, come on, now.

Speaker 6 (04:15):
Undred million all that?

Speaker 5 (04:17):
What do you do with the money?

Speaker 6 (04:18):
You don't even know?

Speaker 2 (04:19):
I have no idea, but you know I could try
and figure it out. So that is crazy. It's kind
of like what Martha Quinn. Have you ever heard the
story of Michael Jackson's thriller Vincent Price, who does the.

Speaker 5 (04:32):
That laugh?

Speaker 2 (04:32):
At the end, he was offered twenty thousand dollars or
cut of the album sales. Turns out he took twenty
k off the top. But Michael Jackson's thriller is still
to this day, the biggest selling album of all time. Choices, Yeah,
Bob Seeinger on the way, just a little share this morning.
Also some B fifty two's coming up on Classic Kids

(04:53):
one O three point seven.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Seven weeks. Time for the Crazy on the Morning Drive
with Christie Live.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Today the Crazy Trains headed out to Vancouver, Canada. You know,
it's never easy trying to be someone you're not. That
doesn't mean it can't happen though. This social media influencer,
Annie Knew, pretended for over five years to be her
twin sister. Why to protect her grandparents from heartbreak.

Speaker 5 (05:29):
This is a crazy story.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
So Annie had a twin sister who died five years
ago from viral meningitis, and the family decided to keep
it a secret from the grandparents to avoid upsetting them.

Speaker 5 (05:41):
So she had to pretend.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
To be herself and her twin sister four five years.

Speaker 6 (05:48):
How do you do that for so long?

Speaker 5 (05:51):
Dang, that's crazy.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
They eventually told the grandmother the truth on her deathbed
this year, and then she shared the story on social media.
She said her grandfather still doesn't know that her twin
sister passed away. That would be so traumatic this poor woman, Annie.
I feel for you, girl.

Speaker 6 (06:09):
I just need to know if she's okay.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
Annie?

Speaker 6 (06:11):
Are you okay? Are you okay? Annie?

Speaker 7 (06:13):
Get it, Carina, Annie, are you okay?

Speaker 5 (06:19):
Are you okay?

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Morning Drive with Christie Live Classic Kids one oh three
point seven, It's time for the great Dembait.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
If I don't like it, I'm giving it back. I
don't think there's anything wrong with that. Every Monday, Wednesday
and Friday always have a hot debate. And this is
between producer Krina and I, and I'm hoping you can help.
So we have a coworker who will remain unnamed, who
came in and gave us each some holiday candy. He
gave Karina cookies. He gave me candy. I don't eat chocolate,

(07:13):
and he gave me a ton of chocolate. Yeah, And
so I asked Karina the Grinch if she wanted to
trade and she was like no, So I said, okay,
I'm gonna give it back to him because I'm not
gonna eat it.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
And Karina was like, oh my god, don't do that.
You're gonna hurt his feelings.

Speaker 6 (07:28):
Christy, I think it's rude.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Why is me saying, no, thank you, I appreciate this,
but please give it to somebody who can use it a.

Speaker 7 (07:37):
Bad thing because he went out of his way to
give us a little something something. And you were like,
I'm gonna go take this back to him because I
don't eat chocolate exactly.

Speaker 6 (07:46):
I think it's still rude.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
I wasn't gonna like throw it in his face and
say I hate this.

Speaker 5 (07:51):
How could you give this to me?

Speaker 2 (07:52):
I was just gonna say, you know, hey, I don't
eat chocolate, but I really appreciate the thought.

Speaker 7 (07:57):
No, I would feel so bad that would crush somebody's
feel especially his feelings, because he's very nice to us.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
Now all of a sudden, you're worried about crushing people's feelings.

Speaker 6 (08:06):
I think it's rude to give a gift back.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
What do you think that is the question for this
morning's great debate. Tis the season we're giving gifts? What
is the protocol? One eight sixty six nine hundred and
one three seven. You can always jump in and join
the fun by tapping the red microphone if you happen
to be listening on our iHeartRadio app, send a talk

(08:31):
back and hear from you.

Speaker 5 (08:32):
Next back to the.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Greek debate Classic Kids one oh three point seven.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
Is it rude to give a gift back to someone
when they give it to you because maybe you're not
going to use it? Coworker gave me some chocolate. I
don't eat chocolate. I wanted to give it back.

Speaker 5 (08:49):
Is that rude? Angela?

Speaker 3 (08:51):
I think it's very rude to give it back. I
think maybe you should just say thank you and regift it,
and then you're saving yourself money because do you have
one last gift to buy? That's my personal opinion.

Speaker 5 (09:03):
Okay, well, thank you very much, Angela. I will note
that vote.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Okay, thank you.

Speaker 5 (09:09):
Bye, You're bye, Stacy, thanks for calling.

Speaker 2 (09:11):
Do you think it's rude to give a gift back
if you're not gonna use it?

Speaker 6 (09:15):
Stacy? I told Christy she's being rude. No, that's on
your side.

Speaker 5 (09:20):
You never ever give a gift back, even if you're
not gonna use it.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
I was just gonna say, like, hey, I don't eat chocolate.
Maybe you could give this to someone else.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
It would be like if someone told you that they
loved you and you just said, oh that's sweet.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
No, you don't do it.

Speaker 6 (09:36):
All right? I will note the vote.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Thank you very much, Stacy got to talk back from
our app. Tap that red microphone anytime you want to
jump in and join the fun Christie and Crean.

Speaker 5 (09:46):
That's Mark from Massachusetts on the Great Debate today.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
I know that miss Ruthie is best friends of Jesus
and she would not give it back and hurt his feeling.
Oh you got to bring my mom into this. I'm
sounding more and more like a grinch. Yell here, What
do you think? Is it rude to give a gift back?
A coworker gave me a gift. I was just thinking, like,
I'm not gonna eat it. Why not just give it
back to him so he can give it to someone

(10:10):
who will.

Speaker 5 (10:11):
Is that rude?

Speaker 2 (10:12):
One eight sixty six nine hundred one three seven or

Back to the Great Debate Classic Hits one oh three
point seven.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Is it rude to give back a Christmas gift or
any type of gift that you're not gonna use or
that you don't like?

Speaker 5 (10:41):
That is the question this morning for the Great Debate.

Speaker 6 (10:44):
Ramit.

Speaker 3 (10:44):
Oh yeah, I wouldn't do that.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
I would definitely say that's rude. Just keep it to yourself.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
Just be thankful you got something right.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
But don't you think giving it back to someone so
they can regift it or take it back and save
their money.

Speaker 5 (10:59):
Could be helpful too, now get it? That's what Angela said. Okay,
thanks for calling, Thanks to you talking to you.

Speaker 2 (11:06):
Take care, got a talk bag, Tap that red microphone
on our free iHeartRadio app anytime to jump in and
join the fun.

Speaker 4 (11:12):
I don't see anything wrong with giving a gift back.
At least you're being honest about it. I do it
all the time with my friends and family. If I
don't like the gift, I'm gonna let you know. It's
not whether you like.

Speaker 5 (11:23):
It, it's if I like it. Thank you, finally one person
who agrees with me. Thanks for the talkback.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
Hi Christine and Karana. This is Sarti calling from Kentucky. Hey, Christy,
I have actually given back a gift that I was
given at Christmas one year, and you would not believe
the level of hurt on that person's face when I
did that. And I felt the same as you. I
wasn't going to use it. I figured, you know, it
could be used for something, you know, given to somebody

(11:50):
who could use it, and I inadvertently hurt that person deeply.

Speaker 2 (11:54):
Very Christmas, ladies, Merry Christmas to you Jody who I
felt that when she said it too, like I could
just feel there feelings being crushed.

Speaker 7 (12:01):
Oh, which is what you try to do to our
co worker.

Speaker 5 (12:05):
That is not it.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
But okay, I don't even think we need to ask
for the votes for this morning's great debate.

Speaker 5 (12:16):
Heard everyone loud and clear. Yeah, Christy, Yeah, it's rude.

Speaker 6 (12:19):
Yeah, it's very rude.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
So if anyone would like a Hershey's chocolate kift, put
it in the break room and then they're gonna see
that's rude. He's gonna see I'm giving it away.

Speaker 6 (12:29):
It could be somebody else. No one will let her know.

Speaker 5 (12:32):
But still, okay, thank you so much.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
You can jump in and join the Great Debate every Monday,
Wednesday and Friday. Right now, back to the music in
