Side Trekked – New Year's Eve

This week, Alice and Skyler are wrapping up their month of holiday-centric Side Trekked specials (sorry to the fans of them/you're welcome to the haters of them)!! To ring in 2026, they could think of no better way than to discuss Garry Marshall's extremely on-theme 2011 film New Year's Eve. Topics include the sheer tonnage of famous people in it, ruining "Auld Lang Syne," wrapping their minds around the audacity of making Michelle Pfeiffer play a dowdy sad sack, where "Jensen" ranks in the pantheon of pop star mononyms, confusing Josh Duhamel for Timothy Olyphant, and much, much more! Listen!!
