Regrets, Recriminations and Resolutions Show


It's the end of the year, a time to try and reckon with all that bad behavior. Here's a show about the stuff you did that you want to give up, the stuff you don't want to give up but should and the stuff you didn't do and want to do (not to mention what you want the ones who are near and dear to you to do or not to do).
