Now it's time for the Anchorman podcast with Matt Gates and Pearson Sharp.

Welcome back to The Anchorman Show. I'm Matt Gates and happy New Year to everybody. I am joined

as always by my co-host Pearson Sharp.

Pearson, how did you ring in the new year in 2026? It's going to be very very disappointing to a lot of

the people who went out there and we're in Times Square and all those places like that I put my girls

down to bed we were lucky we got them down at about seven o'clock I think and then my

wife and I rushed around frantically trying to get things prepared because we

knew they were gonna wake up so we could have a little time to ourselves and

right as we got everything set up and sat down and you know to watch a movie

our little as daughter woke up. And so spent the

next hour waiting for her to go down. Then when she went down, our other daughter woke up.

And my time she was down, it was about 9 o'clock. So we got about half an hour of having Martinelli's

sparkling wine by the fire watching James Bond. And by 9.30, we were both so tired, but just went to bed.

By the way, that is a classy New Year's. The sparkling wine, the Bond, you are mixing

in the class with the very blue-collar act of actually parenting your own children, which is

pretty awesome, actually. I think

that's a great way to rig in the new year. It was pretty wild. We are, we have family. Yeah, we have

family overseas. And so I was actually in Germany, visiting with family who are stationed in the

military there. And I got to tell you, Europe is just like so gone.

I am not bullish on Europe after spending a little time there because like for every schnitzel place I could find there were like three Iranian kebab places.

And I probably like kebab better than schnitzel, but if you were German, you would

probably want to preserve it a little bit. Do you have any, do you have any big New Year's resolutions?
