We look back on the most meaningful moments of 2025 — the challenges that built our faith, the lessons that changed our perspective, and the memories that will stay with us long after the calendar turns. We talk honestly about growth, healing, gratitude, and what it means to release what no longer serves us.

Whether you're closing out the year quietly, celebrating with friends, or simply needing a moment of reflection, this episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and step forward with hope.

Here’s to new beginnings, steady faith, and a future filled with purpose.

n this special Christmas episode of The Know Buddies 757, Jackie and Kashmir slow things down to reflect on hope, kindness, and the deeper meaning of the season.

In Trending, we share uplifting and encouraging holiday stories — including powerful God wink moments involving an elderly man whose story stopped us in our tracks, and a moving encounter at a women’s shelter that reminded us how small acts of compassion can carry enormous impact. These moments point us back to faith, generosity, and the quiet miracles happening all around us — even when the world feels heavy.

In Life Unfiltered, we open up about our Christmas traditions — how they’ve changed over time, what we’ve held onto, and why presence matters more than presents. From Christmas Eve routines to favorite foods, family memories, and learning to slow down, this conversation is warm, personal, and reflective.

This episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and look for the good — even in the middle of chaos. Whether your holidays feel joyful, complicated, or somewhere in between, we’re grateful to share the season with you.

Wishing you peace, comfort, and a very Merry Christmas. 🎄

In Episode 12 of The Know Buddies 757, we tackle uncomfortable truths, cultural accountability, and the stories shaping this season — both nationally and close to home.

In Trending, Jackie and Kashmir break down Candace Owens vs. Erika Kirk, why attacking a grieving widow crosses the line, and how misinformation spreads when influence outweighs integrity. We also unpack the Michigan scandal, power, protection, and what accountability should actually look like when institutions close ranks.

In 757 Living, we’re back with a true Worth the Bite pick: West Side Burgers. Smash-style burgers, Wrangler sauce, fried pickles, Orange Crushes, and a laid-back atmosphere that earns it a Nobody’s Pick for Hampton Roads locals. 🍔

In Life Unfiltered, we talk about grief during the holidays — why loss feels heavier this time of year, how faith and memory coexist, and how to show up for others when joy feels complicated.

Over in Fan Zone, we lighten things up with our Christmas Spotify playlists, favorite holiday songs, and a quick NFL update, including Ravens talk as the season heats up.

And for Gummy Bears, chaos returns — Rose is back, the fiancé is back, and Reddit once again asks: “Am I the A-hole?” 😬

Honest conversations. Real emotions. Always In the Know.
