    Episode 245 - Holiday Cheer: Beating the Blah-Humbugs
    Dec 17 2025
    The holidays come with a lot of pressure to be joyful, grateful, festive, and smiling, even when your heart may not be there. In this week’s Tuesday People podcast, Mitch Albom reflects on the idea of “holiday cheer” and why it doesn’t need to be forced. Drawing from his time with Morrie Schwartz, Mitch shares how Morrie faced depression honestly in his final days, never denying it, but never letting it define him either. Depression, Morrie taught, is just one emotion among many — not a failure, not a flaw, and not something to feel ashamed of, especially during the holidays. If the blah-humbugs sneak in this season, this conversation is a gentle reminder to stop measuring your happiness, release the guilt, and let your heart lead you where it needs to go.

    This week on the Tuesday People podcast, Mitch reflects on the independent bookstores that anchor communities across the country. As he travels from town to town on his current tour, he’s reminded that every great chain once began as a single family-run shop — a dream, a risk, and a doorway opened by someone who simply loved stories. In an era where convenience often overshadows connection, we pause to honor the mom-and-pop shops and small businesses that keep the heart of our country alive—reminding us not to lose sight of the family businesses that built the world we love to browse in.

    Episode 243 - Pass the Potatoes, Pause the Politics
    Nov 25 2025
    On today’s Tuesday People podcast, Mitch Albom reflects on why Thanksgiving — his favorite holiday of the year — shouldn’t be a battleground for politics or a place where we decide who “gets to be at the table” based on how they voted. In a time when families are tempted to take vengeance on loved ones who chose a different direction at the polls, Mitch invites us to “think about the thanks” in Thanksgiving and put that spirit toward the people sitting right beside us. Whatever political issues you might be carrying, let them go, just for today. And return to the simple art of storytelling and story-listening that makes this holiday so meaningful.
