Where Are We Going With NEW YEARS?! Will the BALL DROP ever CHANGE?

New year. New goals. Same abandoned resolutions by February. 🎉

In this episode of Where Are We Going With This?, we boldly ask the question humanity has been pretending not to hear since 1997: What are we actually doing with New Year’s? From wildly unrealistic resolutions to packed gyms that vanish overnight, we break down the cultural chaos of January 1st—the one day a year where everyone believes buying a planner counts as personal growth.

We dive into the future of New Year’s traditions, why we’re obsessed with fresh starts that conveniently begin “next Monday,” and how society turned midnight confetti into a full-blown identity reset. Is “New Year, New Me” evolving into something healthier—or are we just rebranding the same habits with better fonts and motivational quotes?

Expect sharp takes, questionable logic (on purpose), and a surprisingly thoughtful conversation about why humans crave reinvention, structure, and hope… all triggered by a clock changing numbers. It’s funny, insightful, slightly unhinged, and somehow still productive—kind of like New Year’s itself.

Press play before your resolution to “watch more podcasts” quietly disappears.
