Hey, this is Annie.

Anne Smitha.

And welcome to Stuff Mom Never Told You, a production of IHeart Radio.

And welcome to 2026.

Yes.

It's hard to know when this is going to come out, but as of recording, this is supposed to come out in the new year.

So happy New Year. Hope it went well for you. Good luck to you. Yes, good luck to you. And as always, as is tradition, we're a little

late on things. So we're doing our 2025 recap at the beginning of 26. So this is just the tradition that we have where we look back

over the year and we pick out some of the favorite things that we've done, some of our

favorite episodes, some of our favorite segments, anything that stuck out. And we make a lot of content listeners, as I'm sure you know.

So it's actually kind of difficult to narrow it down. But we've done our best and we have our

picks here. But as always, listeners, we would love to hear from you if there is

anything that really stood out to you that you want to hear more of or less of or what you

want to see us try or do. Please let us know. So sometimes I worry, Samantha, that we get kind of, we use a lot of technical

jargon that people don't know what we're talking about necessarily. But the way that we do

things here is that it's not even technical, and you probably do know, but to make sure we're all on the same page,

we usually have two full episodes, what we call full episodes, a week.

New episodes, typically.

New episodes.

And those are ones that are longer and more researched.
