New Year's Resolutions

Is it time to turn our backs on the past, and look forward to the future with renewed hope for better days? Instead of sitting around hoping things get better, let’s take matters into our own hands by making some resolutions.

The past year has been especially challenging, so we asked you listeners to send in your New Year’s resolutions, and we’ll also be listening to the New Year’s sentiments of our celebrity panelists, whom we have lined up in chronological order.
