My Thunderous Moments During the NY Knicks and Stephen Colbert Finale
Podcast: Different, Not BrokenPublished On: Thu Jun 25 2026
Description: I am not generally a catastrophizer.I can see worst-case scenarios in almost any situation — and I'm usually right. But I'm always happy to be wrong. I just... don't get the opportunity that often.This week's episode is exactly the kind of chaos that makes me me.It starts with the NY Knicks winning the NBA Championship (for which I personally deserve significant credit, having been invested in their success for approximately 46 milliseconds).Five minutes later, something happened to my house that I was absolutely certain was the beginning of global nuclear war.Then I tell you about Stephen Colbert's series finale, Paul McCartney walking out onto the Ed Sullivan stage, and the exact moment I became a puddle of tears on the floor — because some feelings are genetic, and the Beatles are one of mine.And in Small Talk, Alison answers a question from Brianna in Tennessee, who's spent years being told she's "too much." Too direct. Too blunt. Too honest.
