A holiday episode of The Tuesdays wanders through the chaos, humor, and nostalgia of the season. The group debates which movies truly belong on the big screen, reacts to Sofia’s packed night at a popup Christmas bar in NYC, and contrasts it with Justin’s quiet, candlelit visit to a historic 1800s village. Along the way, Tony G shares the frustration of a holiday cocktail menu that never materialized, Stacy unwraps one of the strangest gifts she’s ever received, and everyone reflects on the toys, marketing, and moments that made Christmas feel magical growing up—even if they don’t exist anymore.

Sofia takes a tumble down the stairs, Justin shocks the group with a Hallmark-movie-level NYC date (and a kiss!), and the crew breaks down Zootopia 2 — from the will-they-won’t-they with Judy and Nick to that fact that a kid movie has a neck stabbing. Then they ick through Puff Daddy’s Netflix doc, lament movie theater prices, and finally share the ultimate personality test: everyone’s Spotify Wrapped ages, top artists, and embarrassing playlists.

🐾 Sofia vs. the stairs: a sprain, some crawling, and why didn't she call Mom?

🌆 Justin’s NYC date: museums, holding hands, and a Hallmark-worthy kiss

Stacy, Sofia, and Tony G dig into the sudden rise of AI-generated singers — including a country song topping the charts from an artist who isn’t even real. They discuss the two new "artists" and debate whether this is creativity, a shortcut, or the start of something messier.

Stacy, Sofia, Justin, and Tony G discuss everything from failed language lessons and fake Louisiana accents to the thrill (or terror) of roller coasters. Stacy shares stories from the Marine Corps Ball—including her first trip to Busch Gardens, where she firmly skipped the rides—while Tony G defends the adrenaline rush, Justin admits swings now make him sick, and Sofia opens up about her fear of throwing up. The group also talks about the difference between Veterans Day and Memorial Day, and ends with a debate over today’s tipping culture: the guilt, the screens, and whether anyone really deserves a tip for handing you a bottle of water.

This week's highlights:

• 🎓 Why language learning feels impossible as an adult
• 🎢 Roller coasters, motion sickness, and Sofia’s fear of throwing up
• 🎖 The 250th Marine Corps Birthday and Stacy’s ball weekend

Halloween’s over, but Stacy and Sofia are still covering the highlights. Sofia survives Bayville Scream Park (barely) while Stacy recounts trick-or-treat fun featuring a hot dog, a school bus, and Dunkings costumes.

They also talk Heidi Klum’s Medusa costume, why fall deserves more than a weekend before Christmas, the escaped monkeys in Mississippi, and the latest Britney and Blake Lively drama.

What we’re talking about this week:

• Sofia’s first haunted-house experience (and how she scared the actors instead)
• The cutest kids’ costumes for Halloween
• Why Thanksgiving décor deserves its moment
• Britney Spears, fame, and the cost of growing up in the spotlight
• Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni — drama, PR, or publicity stunt?
