Podcast: Excuse My Grandma
Published On: Thu Jan 01 2026
Description: Happy New Year! Kim and Grandma Gail kick off the new year by reflecting on 2025 and sharing what they’ve been up to over the holiday break. From enjoying the warmth in Palm Beach to day trips at Universal, Kim and Grandma have been keeping busy. They talk about nostalgia of going to the parks and how to not put pressure on yourself in today’s economy. The conversation moves into New Year’s resolutions (like cutting back Kim’s relationship with ChatGPT), self-care, and an Ask Grandma Anything with listener questions about family, relationships, stress, and personal growth. Grandma Gail shares her signature rules and advice on setting realistic goals, protecting your energy, and focusing on what truly deserves your time in 2026. In The Grandma Report, they review Americans’ top resolutions for 2026 (read the study on Statista). They also discuss which trends of 2025 they want to Keep or Cut in a round of Should We Bring It Back, from Labubus to mahjong to over-the-top weddings. Follow us onInstagram @excusemygrandma @⁠⁠kimmurstein⁠TikTok @excusemygrandma and @excusemygrandmapod Watch on YouTubeSpotifyMusic By: Guy Kelly 00:00: Introduction35:49: Ask Grandma Anything44:00: The Grandma Report44:55: Should We Bring It Back
