It’s time for another question for “Would You Rather Monday”. Today’s question hits a little close to home for Raven! Which of these two options would you choose and why?
What’s the best thing that happened to you this weekend? What about the worst? Anna & Raven want to hear about both! Raven had a great family dinner with some relatives he hadn’t seen in a while, but Anna’s nice family weekend was disrupted when she accidentally did something ridiculous with her daughter’s brand new bike!
When a loved one passes, making a decision about what to do with their ashes can be very emotional. Attention and care should be taken to make sure that a person’s remains are treated with respect. Which was why Anna was shocked when she read about what one man did with his father’s ashes! (:30)
What happened to your engagement ring when you broke up? Jennifer Lopez and A-Rod haven split, and J-Lo is keeping the ring. This makes it 5 total engagement rings for her, valued at almost 10 million, and rumor is she’s kept them all! But what did you do with yours? One caller gave theirs away, and the person who received it still has no idea where it came from! (3:26)
Between the anti-climatic ending and the super long acceptance speeches, this years Oscars were a bit of a bust. But one thing we can all agree on, is that Glenn Close absolutely stole the show! Anna and Raven go over the top 3 moments from last night’s Oscars! (10:32)

Anna hates the term “Karen”, she thinks it’s condescending. But if you go out of your way to complain about someone’s child about something this trivial, then you’re a Karen and that’s all I need to know about you! (22:01)
Remember how gum used to be stuck underneath every table you sat down at? Anna and Raven was wondering if that was still the case or if humanity had evolved enough to not put disgusting pre-chewed gum all over public places! So they spent the weekend doing some research, and the results may surprise you… (25:50)
Did you have a fake ID? Raven had a perfect fake ID when he was 16. It scanned, and he even got it at the actual DMV. But you won’t believe what happened to him the first night he used it! (28:50)
This years Oscar’s were different for a variety of reasons, and some of the changes worked, but others…not so much. Rafer Guzman is a movie critic for Newsday and he has some insight on what worked and what didn’t at this year’s Academy Awards! (35:19)
Couples Court: Catherine recently was going through her husband, Richie’s, phone and was flipping through his text messages. He freaked out about the lack of privacy. She wants to take it to the Couple’s Court because she believes that if you have nothing to hide, why would you care if your spouse went through your phone? He says it’s not a matter of trust, it’s just privacy. Whose side are you on? (39:11)
Nancy thinks she’s got what it takes to beat Raven in pop culture trivia! Can she succeed and win the $3500 jackpot? (46:21)

This is one for the animal lovers. A story that truly shows the kindness of people and the power of social media.
A local animal shelter here in North Haven called The Animal Haven had 78 cats in their shelter that were desperately in need to food. They were having trouble getting them all fed so they decided to put up a post on their Facebook page asking for a few donations. The post went up Thursday (4/22) and by this morning (Friday 4/23) they had a mountain of Amazon boxed outside their door from people donating cat food to the shelter.
Just incredible.
If you also want to help out and donate to The Animal Haven, you can get to their Amazon wish list of needs here.

The Academy Awards are this Sunday night. Or as most people casually refer to them, The Oscars. Which is also the name of the gold statuette the winners receive. But why is it called an “Oscar”?
The Academy officially started using the name “Oscar” for the trophies in 1939. One of the most popular stories behind the whole thing is that Margaret Herrick who was the Academy executive secretary, first saw the award in 1931 and said the statuette reminded her of her “Uncle Oscar”. Which was also a nickname her family called their cousin Oscar Pierce. Then it just stuck ever since.
If you’re wondering, the Oscar is made of metal and coated with 24 karat gold!
Now you have these two fun tidbits to impress your Oscar Party guest with.
