Shownotes

It’s mid-October and the 2/3 of the crew—Stacy, Sofia, and Tony G—kick off The Tuesdays Morning Show by diving into everything from odd jobs to pop culture nostalgia. Tony confesses to accidentally coaching kids’ golf without knowing how to play, Stacy mourns the end of MTV, and the group debates whether anyone could survive a month with a “dumb phone.”

From reminiscing about Discmans and paper maps to reviewing Taylor Swift’s new album and reacting (with disbelief) to a Twitch streamer live-broadcasting her childbirth, this first episode captures exactly what The Tuesdays is about: smart, funny, cross-generational conversation about the world we’re living in—and the one we left behind.

"YouTube is the new cable."

What we're talking about in this episode:

  • Tony’s accidental coaching job – teaching golf to kids (and their parents) without knowing how to golf.
  • The end of MTV – what it meant to different generations and how music videos lost their home.
  • Life without smartphones – could you survive a month with a flip phone?
  • Maps, memory, and nostalgia – paper maps, Discmen, and the art of getting lost.
  • Taylor Swift’s new album – first impressions, lyrical critiques, and the generational Swiftie divide.
  • The rise of extreme livestreaming – a Twitch streamer who broadcasted her own childbirth and what it says about internet culture.
