The Great Resolution Delusion w/ Aliza Jay

Wednesday, January 7, 2026 • Duration 01:21:04

In the first episode of the new year, Julia is joined by Jewish Aliza to interrogate the concept of New Year's Resolutions. The girlies put on their therapist hats to explore the psychology behind a "fresh start," why most resolutions are doomed to fail, and how habits only stick once you stop trying to punish yourself into change. Digressions include Aliza's campaign to stop the lesbian yearning epidemic, debating whether being waterboarded is worse than proposing to a man, and the radical act of putting down The Bat.

This episode was produced by Julia Hava and Kylie Finnigan and edited by Livi Burdette.
