Forget the resolutions you’ve already broken—it’s time for the Give-olutions! In this episode of The Full Scoop, Alan, Jessi, and Jhonny kick off 2026 by turning the traditional New Year’s resolution on its head. Instead of picking their own goals, the crew is picking them for each other.

From high-stakes wheel spins to "classy" new habits and "manly" emotional growth, the team explores whether we’re better at committing to others than we are to ourselves.

Will Alan stay disciplined enough to log his gaming hours? Can Jhonny truly transform into a wine connoisseur with his pinky in the air? Will Jessi survive the 'Give-olutions' she created, and can Winston catch up on his new goals once he returns from his 'assignment' in the Bahamas?

Come join us for the discussion as we dive into these "Give-olutions" and see what happens when accountability meets a little bit of chaos!

In this episode of The Full Scoop, we dive into the world’s most unique Christmas traditions—from Catalonia’s famous pooping figurines to Japan’s romantic Christmas with festive KFC buckets. We also explore the "corporate" takeover of holidays, the history of African Christmas dates, and somehow spiral into a debate over why the Declaration of Independence was basically a slow-moving divorce.

Join us on this episode of The Full Scoop Podcast where we start with a hilarious deep dive into a cringe-worthy John Travolta 80s aerobics clip that’s guaranteed to make you laugh (and question the decade). We also launch into a chaotic discussion about Yu-Gi-Oh, The Shadow Realm, and doppelgangers! Our chaos peaks when we explore a wild theory comparing music legend Elton John to the Mexican icon Juan Gabriel, framing them as true musical mirror images. Get ready for funny tangents, rapid-fire banter, and a serious examination of who copied whom!

Don't miss the show that proves sometimes, the best comedy is pure, glorious chaos!
