Jeff and Emily not only recap their holiday festivities and their "Very Covid Christmas," but being the first episode of 2025, they look ahead to the new year. Instead of their New Years resolution, they proclaim what they vow to Not do in the new year. 

In the spirit of the new year, take a stroll down the Mauro memory lane to Come On Over's first episode 2022 where Jeff and Emily take a look back at what made 2021 great (or not so great). 

They discuss their favorite and least favorite TV shows in all categories, their favorite meals and travels, along with funnest adventures and dumbest activities. They get deep and assess how they’ve grown in 2021, and how they’re going to crush 2022. Top it all off with a couple super fun Listener Lightning Rounds where they share the stupidest shows binged of 2021 and New Year's resolutions that were a total bust.
