Episode 257 - Dear Grad Part 2: Live Life, Don't Scroll It
2026/06/16 | 31 mins.
On last week's Tuesday People podcast, Mitch Albom shared the first piece of advice from his commencement message to new graduates. This week, he continues that conversation with a simple but powerful challenge: disconnect. In a world where so much of life is lived through screens, Mitch explores what happens when we put down our phones and reconnect with the people, places, and moments right in front of us. An online life is not a real life. Join us as we discuss the value of being present, witnessing the world with your own eyes, and discovering how much brighter life can be when you unplug. Plus, read Mitch's full commencement article here in the Detroit Free Press.

Episode 255 - The Motherless Mother's Day Club
2026/05/12 | 23 mins.
On this week’s episode of the Tuesday People podcast with host Mitch Albom, we ask a difficult question for so many: How do people who are motherless celebrate Mother’s Day? Mitch reflects on the idea that even when our mothers are no longer physically with us, they remain woven into who we are. The way we love our children, show kindness to friends, face challenges, or view the world often carries their fingerprints. Listeners are encouraged to make a list of the qualities, traditions, lessons, and pieces of themselves that came from their mothers, and to use that list every year, not only to remember their mothers who have passed, but to celebrate the women who still live on within us every single day.

On this week’s episode of the Tuesday People podcast, host Mitch Albom returns with part two of last week’s conversation, gently exploring one of life’s most difficult questions: how do you keep going in your grief when your prayers feel unanswered, and the answer from God seems to be...no? With shared words of wisdom from Morrie, Mitch reflects on faith in the face of loss, the quiet strength it takes to move forward, and the possibility that even in silence, there may still be meaning. When the path ahead feels uncertain, what carries you through—and what does it mean to keep believing anyway? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
