We're going back to the most popular decade in 2026: THE 90s! WOOT! JL and Kelly lived it, and they are reminiscing through some good ole trivia. It's SO challenging to fit such a robust decade into one episode, so they may be back for moreeee. What's your favorite memory from the 90s? Or, if you weren't there, what do you wish you could have experienced?

Last week in TNR, Kelly and JL got real about AI and the Analog Revolution ... and then the verdict came back on the Meta / YouTube case. Some folks are comparing this case to the Big Tobacco fallout back in the late 1990s. The ruling called out what we've known for a while now: tech addiction is real. JL and Kelly discuss their own relationships with social media going back to the godfather, AOL Instant Messenger (iykyk). Social media: the good, the bad and the (ugly) comparisons

The conversation about AI is on everyone's lips right now, but with the push to automate more of our lives comes an interesting reaction ... tapping out and focusing on being less digital. JL and Kelly discuss how a large portion of humans are doing a deep re-evaluation about their connection to technology. The reaction is an uptick in the purchase of dumb phones and vinyl. And thanks(!!) Gen Z for buying so much film that Kodak was able to rise from the ashes! AI's not going anywhere, but analog is balancing the scales.

This week in TNR, Ambra Hubert joins JL and Kelly for a conversation that celebrates risk taking, reinvention and the power of the wisdom gained from over four decades of life. Ambra discusses a trauma response that resulted in doing a TED Talk, the myriad ways in which she’s reinvented herself, her background in art, and how she’s rewiring her thinking from “it’s too late for me” to “I could still start a media empire if I want to!” This episode is a reminder that failure isn’t the end of the road — often it’s just the beginning of a new, much more aligned chapter … AND finally, can you change the way you perceive fear (and instead turn it into curiosity)?

TNR parties with Annette Silva this weeeeekkkkk! The ladies break down the taboo ... women ARE gross. Women have been told to sit and be pretty. To be seen and not heard. Well, WE'RE DONE WITH THAT. Better out than in, I always say! Kelly, JL and Annette discuss hilarious self-care stories, how it's normal for EVERY human to fart, and how no one should feel weird about any of it. Let it rip with the TNR for the most laugh-filled episode yet.

JL and Kelly are at it again. In their last episode, the conversation around a fear of success entered the chat, so they decided to dissect that even further. If you had to choose where your bigger fear lies, is it in failing or succeeding? Self-sabotage often shows up in the most curious ways. Kelly and JL break it all down in this super thoughtful friend therapy session that is sure to provide you with insights on your own life.

JL and Kelly get comfortable with being ... uncomfortable because it's on the other side of staying safe where the magic starts to happen. Kelly used to go non-verbal even just thinking about a microphone and a young, shy JL learned how to hitchhike in a pinch ... Also, if you want to share the one item you'd save from your house in a fire, TNR is all ears

This week in TNR, JL and Kelly keep it really light in talking about bravery and … death? Kelly feels pulled to acknowledge the big, fat elephant in the room, and JL shares a quote she learned from her favorite tarot card reader that she starts every morning with. The ladies talk big cross-country moves, skydiving, ditching jobs that look good on paper but melt souls and what happens during a near-death experience. It’s all about living for the NOW.
