About this listen

This week on the Tuesday People podcast, a familiar awards-season phrase sparks a deeper conversation. After attending the GRAMMYs®, Producer Lisa noticed how often winners stepped to the mic and began their speeches by thanking God—and it made her think, God is really busy tonight. Host Mitch Albom connects the moment to the Super Bowl and sports culture, where victory is so often framed as divine favor. But that raises a bigger question: what about the other team? In this thoughtful, gently provocative episode, Mitch and Lisa explore gratitude, faith, humility, and intention. Is it right to thank God when we win? Or is it more meaningful to give thanks for the opportunity, the effort, and to pray for the best outcome for everyone involved? It’s a conversation about belief, balance, and what gratitude really looks like—win or lose. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
