Bye Bye 2025

In this End-of-Year episode of Politically Uncorrect, Michael, and Allen close the book on 2025 by revisiting the second half of the year — July through December — while officially welcoming in 2026. What starts as a reflective recap quickly turns into a familiar mix of frustration, humor, and self-awareness.

Allen’s high school reunion sparks a conversation about being “chose," which naturally evolves into a deeper discussion on preferences, deal breakers, and how perspectives change with time. From there, Allen (for some reason) wants to rank the last five NBA champions, before finally putting a bow on a brutally frustrating fantasy football season, and revisits preseason NFL picks — with plenty of fourth-wall breaks where Michael battles with being on the pod while also producing the pod

Other year-defining moments: Allen’s oddly unwavering appreciation of Clipse, UTSA’s painful loss to Texas State, and callbacks to debates, arguments, and themes that kept resurfacing throughout the year. The episode isn’t just a recap — it’s a self-check, a laugh at past takes, and an honest look at how the conversations evolved as the year went on.

It’s reflective without being sentimental, critical without being cynical, and the perfect bridge between what Politically Uncorrect was in 2025 and where it’s heading in 2026.
