Speaker 2 (01:42):

It's about that time to check in with the Velaskaz family.
It's Classic Kids one oh three point seven. And you

Speaker 3 (01:57):
Karina's family has maybe just a little more. It's time
for another episode of the greatest family drama.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
Now there's drama with my older sister Cindy.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Last time we heard about Cindy, she was mad because
you guys went to the Chinese food restaurant without her.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
Yeah, so she's not giving you guys the silent treatment anymore. No,
because we invited her to dinner on Monday. Uh huh.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
And when the bill came, which was two hundred and
seventy five dollars, my dad said.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Let me put it on my card.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
You guys just pay me back after So yesterday he
sent a text message to us, me and my sister
and said, hey, girls.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
Here's the bill.

Speaker 4 (02:36):
Send me your items plus the tax and the tip.
Here goes Cindy, I barely ate anything. I don't understand
why I need to cover all that tax and tip
when all I had was a drink and I paid
for my prime rib on the side.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
To avoid all this.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
It never failed that she never wants to contry when
we go out to family dinner. She's so tight on
many every single time. And I said, let's just split
the tip evenly. Let's just split the tax evenly. Here
she goes in the text message, I only had one drink.
You guys had three drinks each, and I don't feel
like I should have to pay all this.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Well, how much is all this tax and tip?

Speaker 4 (03:20):
Is only like an extra maybe seven dollars? So now
my mom was like approxing my vest no vitar, meaning
next time, we're not inviting her because she doesn't want
to share the costs.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Oh, dear Cindy came hungry and left shady, and now
the family's appetite for her excuses is gone. She dodged
the dinner tab, but her karma's coming faster than the
bread basket. Okay, will Cindy get check made it? We'll

Speaker 4 (04:09):
But yeah, what you know every fail you ever take
a couple of minutes on art beating after this because
she just rows me up.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Well, you know that's what older sisters are supposed to do.
Karina's a middle child. If you did, that's why she's
such a tattletale.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Here we go with my siblings and with us.

Speaker 4 (04:27):

Speaker 1 (05:02):
Classic Kids with Christie Live in Morning.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Drops seven twenty free Disneyland Resort tickets. Just want to
give you the heads up before we head out to
Siminole County, Florida.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
On today's Crazy Train.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Kristin Savage was out walking her dog when all of
a sudden, she came face to face with a black bear.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Oh you no, They say they.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Go after the little animals, and that's exactly what the
bear wanted her little dog. She snatched her dog up,
and do you think she fought off the bear with
a a stick, b a baseball bat, c her fist,
or d a bag of cookies.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
I'm going with her fist.

Speaker 5 (05:57):
I remember my mom, she loves right on the street.
It just stopped and hand me a bag of cookies
out of her windows for my kids. And when I
remembered I had them in my hand, I took the
bag and I whacked the bear across the face of it.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
So now you know, if you need to fight off
a black bear, go for the cookies.

Speaker 4 (06:14):
I'm surprised it wasn't like a crocodile or an alligator,
but a black.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Bear walk in your dog. No thank you for Florida,
No thank you. I wonder what kind of cookies they were.
They were very good cookies, very crunchy, very hard.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Okay, Good morning Drive with Christy Lyve on Classic Kids
one oh three point seven. It's time for the Great Debate.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Three out of four Americans say that college is a
waste of money. But what do you think? It's Classic
Kits one o three point seven. Every Monday, Wednesday, and
Friday pose a new question for the Great Debate, and
this morning it's all about higher learning.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
I went to college. You went to a few colleges.
That is a fact. Pretty much all the Bay Area once.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Shout out to Chabou, Aloney, DeAnza Laney and University of Maryland,
which I eventually graduated from.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
H But thank goodness for my gi bill.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
The United States Navy paid for my schooling producer Krina,
You graduated, yep.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
I went to DVC and San Francisco State, no College
DOT because her parents paid for it.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
Correct. Must be nice.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
But the value of the money you spend on a
college education is coming into question in recent years because
it's so expensive, and is.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
There really that return on investment.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
Do you think college essentially is a waste of money
in twenty twenty five, I.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
Feel like I'm grateful that I got the degree, but
I probably could have been in my.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Field without it.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Okay, I think with chat, GPT and all all of
the information online these days, you really can have a
full on career, a good one, and make good money
without necessarily going to college.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
I think it's a great idea.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
So you can get skills, so you can socialize, so
you can learn new things. But to have a degree
to get that great job, I don't think you necessarily
need it anymore. But what do you think is the question?
One eight six six, nine hundred and one three seven.
Tap the red microphone on our free iHeartRadio app and
you can leave us a talkback for this morning's great debate.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
Is college worth it? Hear from you?

Speaker 1 (08:39):
Next back to the Great Debate Classic Kids. One oh
three point seven.

Speaker 2 (08:47):
Three out of four Americans are now saying college is
a waste of money. But what do you think is
the question for this morning's Great debate.

Speaker 3 (08:54):
Jody, Well, I'm.

Speaker 6 (08:55):
A mom and a therapist, and I definitely want my
kids to go to college. But I don't think you
can push somebody to go. I think you have to
ask them what they want in terms of their life purpose.
I think it's essential for life success that you have
education and you be worldly. But I also think that
it's not going to be successful if you're doing it
for the wrong reason. You have to have some buy in.

(09:17):
So I think you find what your life purpose is,
and if that happens to include education, then all the
more successful you will be.

Speaker 3 (09:24):
Boom, Jodi dropping the knowledge and the mic this morning.
Thanks for the call. Have a wonderful day. Aie. You
are actually a college student. What do you think.

Speaker 6 (09:32):
I think college is not for everyone, but it is
for me.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
Okay, then, and what do you think about the cost
of it?

Speaker 6 (09:40):
I think just by saving up money because it can
get pricey.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
Cool.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
Thank you so much. Oh, I appreciate you. Have a
great day at school.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Okay, okay, what do you think is the question for
this morning's great debate?

Speaker 3 (09:54):
Hold on, wait for it, wait for it, hold on,
wait for it. There it is.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Is college a waste of money? One eight sixty six
nine hundred one three seven. You can also tap the
red microphone if you happen to be listening on our
free iHeartRadio app. Thank you for listening on the app.
Lacausen as a preset and hit that red microphone. You
can always jump in and join the fun.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Hear from you. Next back to the Great Debate classic
hits one oh three point seven.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
In a new survey, three out of four Americans say college,
you know, kind of a waste of money.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
But what do you think is the question? Brian.

Speaker 7 (10:34):
You know, I don't think it's a waste of money,
but students need to know that they have a choice.
Not all the students they're going to go to college.
We're going to go to trade schools. I went through
an apprenticeship program.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
People who go through those programs they usually get good jobs, exactly.

Speaker 7 (10:48):
Yeah, and you can make one hundred thousand a year
if you've come a foreman. Yeah, I'm in the she
metals trade. So you can make good money out there.
Not everyone has to go to college.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
All right, Thank you so much, Brian, appreciate you jump
in any time time.

Speaker 8 (11:01):
All right, you have a go too.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
Do you think college is a waste of money? Dana,
thanks for calling.

Speaker 8 (11:06):
I went to college, and the primary thing I took
away from it was how to communicate and be a
better human being. I think college shows basically that you
have the ability to learn. After college, I went straight
to paramedic school and I've been in paramedic ever since.
But I think people need to remember there's a lot
of other ways. If you want to go to become
a doctor, you can join the military and they will

(11:28):
put you all the way through med school and you
will graduate with a medical degree debt free. So there's
a lot of options out there. But man spending sixty
thousand dollars or more for a degree in so many
people I know are sitting on so much college debt
and they're working at pet Co or anything else. Other
guys go and they join the union, and you know,
four years later there were you know, union pipe fitters

(11:50):
making eighty bucks an hour debt free.

Speaker 3 (11:52):
Okay, that's exactly what Brian was saying.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
You know, anybody who has local fill in the blank.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
In front of their job description usually is getting paid.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
I'm just saying, all right, what have the people said
this morning for the Great Debate.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
That they're all for the education. There's a lot of
different ways to get it. You don't necessarily have to
go to college.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
Yeah, I know a couple of people.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Well, my god son going to job corps. Oh, it's
kind of like a trade program as well. So a
lot of people switching it up. Get that money.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
How are you can't.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Classic three points that Crazy News with Christie Live in
Morning drops.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
And across the country today to Seminole County, Florida. On
Today's Crazy Train, Kristin Savage was out walking her dog
when all of a sudden, she came face to face
with a black bear. They say they go after the
little animals, and that's exactly what the bear wanted her

(13:05):
little dog. She snatched her dog up, and do you
think she fought off the bear with a a stick,
b a baseball bat, c her fist, or d a
bag of cookies.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
I'm going with her fist.

Speaker 5 (13:23):
I remembered my mom, she loves right on the street,
just stopped and hand me a bag of cookies out
of her windows for my kids. And when I remembered
I had them in my hand, I took the bag
and I whacked the bear across the face of it.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
So now you know, if you need to fight off
a black bear, go for the cookies.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
I'm surprised. It wasn't like a crocodile or an alligator,
but a black bear walk in your dog.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
No, thank you for Loida. I wonder what kind of
cookies they were. They were very good cookies, very crunchy, very.

Speaker 3 (14:00):
Hard, okay crazy.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
You can ride the Crazy Train every weekend at seventh
and nine forty and catch the stories on demand.
