About this episode
As the year turns, Gethard keeps the tradition alive by talking with callers two minutes at a time about their hopes for 2026. We hear from familiar voices and first-time callers alike, all checking in with what they're reaching for in the year ahead. New jobs and new hobbies, hiking big freakin' mountains and a surprising number of aspiring piano players, all packed into our annual New Year's Resolutions ritual.
