It’s January 6th and I feel like a lot of people still have their Christmas trees up. Which seems crazy to me, but apparently today actually is “National Take Down Your Christmas Tree Day” so I guess today’s the day.
We took ours down the Sunday after New Years. Which seemed right. If you have real tree, those only last about four to five weeks at best. So you really want to take it down before it becomes a fire hazard. The National Fire Protection Association even put out a statement telling people that now is the time to take them down. They say almost a third of Christmas tree fires happen in January.
If you have a fake tree… go wild, leave it up till March!

Q: Experts have found that if you’re struggling with a midlife crisis you should take up this outdoor activity
If you’re married you’ve no doubt had this feeling at least once… you reach over to your ring finger and feel nothing there. It’s the worst, pit in the stomach feeling that you might have lost such a special part of your life.
That’s exactly what happened to this Tennessee Titans fan named Chad Davis. He went to the Titans game on Sunday, and lost his Titans-themed wedding ring somewhere in the stadium. He decided to post a photo of it on social media figuring it was a long shot but worth a try. Luckily the team’s CEO saw the post and messaged him back to let him know they found it!!! The one part that helped was how the ring was blue-and-silver with the Titans’ logo on the side.
You may have eaten a few handfuls of these over the holidays. Delicious Hershey Kisses. But why are they called that anyway?
I always thought it had to do with the shape and how it’s a mold of when you pucker your lips to kiss. But that’s not it! It had more to do with sound actually. When they make the candies in the factory the machine that squirts out the chocolate into that shape onto the conveyor belt makes a sound similar to what a kiss would sound like.
Wow! You’re definitely going to think of that next time you eat one.
A very big congratulations to Colleen who beat Raven this morning during “Can’t Beat Raven” to win herself the $3,100 jackpot! That means the jackpot resets to $100 tomorrow morning! Think you got what it takes like Colleen did? Play tomorrow morning at 8:10am for your chance to be the next big winner!

Betty White passed away last week, just a few weeks shy of her 100th birthday. Most people would be happy to live such a long life, but Anna couldn’t help but wonder if she actually wanted to live that long… (3:34)
If you’re gonna talk smack to an athletic celebrity, you better be able to back it up! And if you think you can just get away with it without any consequences, that’s all I need to know about you! (6:50)
There are some jobs that just have a bad reputation. Whether it’s fair or not, a lot of people will judge someone based on what they do for a living. But Anna had an experience with someone over the winter holiday that made her change her opinion about that career! (10:33)
Why do women refer to their bodies by fruit shapes? Pear shape, apple shape, it all seems pretty weird! But Anna heard about a new shape recently, and it’s not based on a fruit… (22:01)
A snowstorm in Virginia stopped traffic for 24 HOURS! What would you do if you were stuck in that kind of situation? Do you have the necessary survival equipment in your car? Anna and Raven investigate what you would need! (25:53)
Anna is a spoiler. Every time she and Raven are watching the same show, she always has to spoil it for him! The trick is, sometimes she’s telling the truth and other times it’s an outrageous lie that didn’t actually happen on the show. She thinks it’s funny, but is she out of line? (29:52)
Michaela and Andrew just celebrated their first Christmas as husband and wife. Michaela’s parents gifted Andrew a saw and a pair of sweatpants that don’t fit. He doesn’t need the saw and would like to exchange the pants. He asked Michaela to request a gift receipt from her parents or at least ask where they bought the items so he can return them. Michaela thinks it’s rude to ask for a gift receipt, a gift is a gift! Whose side are you on? (37:11)
