Shownotes Transcript

Ever found yourself awkwardly wishing someone "Happy New Year" in mid-January and wondered if there's an expiration date on such greetings? We did too, and we settled on a three to five-day grace period, but not without a lively debate! Join us as we reminisce about the past year, including Kurt's nearly tattooed escapade and our elusive RV dreams. As we navigate the quirks of holiday decor still lingering in the studio, we ponder whether to vent about last year's frustrations or dive headfirst into setting resolutions for 2025.Our resolution talk takes a twist as we humorously dissect the perennial struggle of personal growth. Whether it’s battling the temptation of meat while on a diet or striving for a zen-like patience level in professional settings, we explore the universal challenges of change. Adding a personal touch, we share how cultural quirks, like being Irish, might just influence our temper and reactions, all while teasing the much-loved "thrash talk" segment, where things get candid and unscripted.As the episode unfolds, we juggle new life responsibilities like parenthood and staying punctual with a sprinkle of humor and tales of "Christmas titties" fitness goals. With a festive clink of Evan Williams eggnog, we delve into holiday traditions and capture the joy of shared experiences like watching "A Christmas Story." Shifting gears, we tackle heavier topics, questioning the NFL’s approach to social messaging, while passionately debating college football dynamics. It's a rollercoaster of camaraderie, laughs, and a hearty welcome to the possibilities of 2025.
