The Tuesdays Morning Show

Old TV, New AI, and Why New Year’s Resolutions Are Dumb

The Tuesdays crew kicks off 2026 by debating whether New Year’s resolutions are actually useful—or if goals make more sense—before drifting into a wide-ranging conversation about old TV, modern streaming, and the lost art of boredom. A discussion of black-and-white classics like The Honeymooners turns into a bigger reflection on episodic television, reruns, and why today’s shows feel harder to revisit. The group then dives into the conversation happening everywhere right now: AI—what’s funny, what’s unsettling, and what happens when entertainment, images, and even people start feeling less real. Along the way, they also air their thoughts on who (and what) they’re ready to see less of in 2026.This week’s highlights📺 Why old TV and reruns worked—and endless streaming doesn’t🎞 Black-and-white movies, colorization, and artistic intent🤖 AI comedy, AI creepiness, and where the line should be🎯 Goals vs. resolutions—and why January 1st is overrated🚫 Who (or what) we’re ready to see less of in 2026MentionsThe Honeymooners, It’s a Wonderful Life, Schindler’s List, The LighthouseJustin's YouTube channel: The GreenbergsThe Tuesdays Spotify playlist, with Ricky Nelson's Garden Party now added to the mixThe Surreal Life showCoca Cola AI commercial

New Year's Eve in Times Square, Remembering Y2K, and AI Fears in 2026

As the calendar flips to 2026, the Tuesdays crew debates whether the future ever turned out the way we expected (spoiler: still no flying cars), why the 2020s don’t seem to have a defining identity, and whether New Year’s Eve is wildly overrated or best enjoyed from the couch. The conversation winds through Y2K fears, AI anxiety, fake viral videos, the cons of celebrating in Times Square, and the surprisingly un-astrological origins of January 1st—before ending with unhinged babysitting stories and kids saying their first bad words.This week’s highlights:🎆 Why 2026 still sounds like the future (and somehow doesn’t)🤖 Y2K fears vs. modern AI anxiety🗽 Why Times Square on New Year’s Eve sounds like a nightmare📅 The history of why New Year’s Day is January 1🦜 Fake AI videos😬 Babysitting gone wrong and kids learning new wordsMentions:Coca-Cola (and AI-generated commercials)Cockatoos dancing (and why they do)History.com’s breakdown of the history of New Year’s celebrationsWant to support this new show?Send your favorite episode to a friend!Share this episode on your social media!Leave a rating AND review in your podcast app 😎

Popup Bar in NYC, Surprising Christmas Gifts, and Holiday Nostalgia

A holiday episode of The Tuesdays wanders through the chaos, humor, and nostalgia of the season. The group debates which movies truly belong on the big screen, reacts to Sofia’s packed night at a popup Christmas bar in NYC, and contrasts it with Justin’s quiet, candlelit visit to a historic 1800s village. Along the way, Tony G shares the frustration of a holiday cocktail menu that never materialized, Stacy unwraps one of the strangest gifts she’s ever received, and everyone reflects on the toys, marketing, and moments that made Christmas feel magical growing up—even if they don’t exist anymore.Highlights🎬 Movies that must be seen in theaters🎄 A popup Christmas bar in NYC vs. a candlelit 19th-century village🍸 Holiday work frustration and a cocktail menu gone wrong🎁 The weirdest Christmas gifts that somehow make perfect sense🧸 Childhood toys, cereal box prizes, and pure holiday nostalgiaMentionsAvatar moviesJackassBoratFrosty’s Christmas BarOld Bethpage Village RestorationVent-mounted car cymbals The Ultimator (vintage Nerf rocket launcher)Want to support this new show?Send your favorite episode to a friend!Share this episode on your social media!Leave a rating AND review in your podcast app 😎

Snow Days, Drunk Raccoons & RIP Rob Reiner

Snow days set the tone for a wide-ranging winter episode of The Tuesdays, as Stacy, Sofia, Justin, and Tony G swap memories, debate what’s been lost with remote school and work, and revisit favorite cold-weather traditions. The conversation shifts to a somber reflection on the death of legendary director Rob Reiner, before veering back into holiday shopping stress and the internet’s favorite headline: a repeat-offender Virginia raccoon who broke into a liquor store, got drunk, and passed out in the bathroom."It's adorable and cute when the raccoon does it, but when I do it, I have a drinking problem."This week’s highlights:❄️ Snow days, snow dogs, and the magic of winter silence🎬 Remembering Rob Reiner and the films that shaped pop culture🛍 Holiday shopping stress, gift dilemmas, and last-minute scrambling🎄 Christmas lights, toy catalogs, and nostalgic traditions🦝 The drunk Virginia liquor store raccoon and the gift of the seasonMentions:Snowmageddon (Washington, DC – 2010)Home Alone filming locationsRob Reiner movies:Stand By MeThe Princess BrideWhen Harry Met SallyMiseryA Few Good MenGhostThe Virginia liquor store raccoon and the Hanover Humane Society raccoon merch fundraiserWant to support this new show?Send your favorite episode to a friend!Share this episode on your social media!Leave a rating AND review in your podcast app 😎

A Rockefeller Tree Kiss, Zootopia 2, and the Diddy Doc

Sofia takes a tumble down the stairs, Justin shocks the group with a Hallmark-movie-level NYC date (and a kiss!), and the crew breaks down Zootopia 2 — from the will-they-won’t-they with Judy and Nick to that fact that a kid movie has a neck stabbing. Then they ick through Puff Daddy’s Netflix doc, lament movie theater prices, and finally share the ultimate personality test: everyone’s Spotify Wrapped ages, top artists, and embarrassing playlists. "Hey, but you gotta kiss under the tree - you need that minty breath."This week’s highlights:🐾 Sofia vs. the stairs: a sprain, some crawling, and why didn't she call Mom?🌆 Justin’s NYC date: museums, holding hands, and a Hallmark-worthy kiss🎬 Zootopia 2 review: too many characters, surprise violence, and do we like Nibbles?💸 Why movie theaters are broke (and why popcorn is $400)📺 The Diddy documentary: so much we didn't know🎧 Spotify Wrapped: our ages, our top artists, and why can't Spotify separate the kid songs?Want to support this new show?Send your favorite episode to a friend!Share this episode on your social media!Leave a rating AND review in your podcast app 😎
