A breakdown of the 2026 Grammy Awards with Music Journalist, Writer, and Editor, Bianca Gracie. What we liked, what didn't like, what made us cringe, and what made us fight back tears.
Angelo Carriero returns to unpack the AFC and NFC Championship games, as well as the Pittsburgh Steelers naming Mike McCarthy their new head coach.
Jim and Mike breakdown the Divisional Playoffs, featuring two overtime thrillers and a controversial call that ended another heartbreaking Bills' season. They close out the episode by dissecting the "10 Falls of Mike Tomlin."
This week on Yinz Luv, I'm joined by Angelo Carriero, who helps me break down an utterly thrilling Wildcard Weekend. A few hours before we hit record, we also found out that Mike Tomlin was walking away from the Pittsburgh Steelers after their 30-6 defeat against the Texans. We'll discuss if this is good news or bad news for yinzers worldwide.
It's time for the Free For All, an annual recap of my favorite songs of the year, mixed it with some commentary and info about each artist. The goal, as always, is to get a few new songs on your latest workout, laundry, dishwashing, or road trip playlist. Enjoy!
