There was the Russian war in Ukraine, more mass shootings in America, and the overturning of Roe V. Wade to name just a few that we'll mention. But also, after more than two years out on the road, we made our way to a new studio at UD Team in the summer of 2022.

In today's edition of #TheUpdate Journal, we have a follow-up to Tatum Paxley's Money In The Bank qualifying match on SmackDown, and apparently I was a victim of fake news - for real this time.

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.LARRY FLYNT'S HUSTLER CLUB IN MIDTOWN IS STILL THEREIn a city where everything comes and goes, the Hustler Club on W. 57th Street is still standing tall (and neon).

In today's edition of The Update Journal, AMC has apparently decided that our emotional stability was becoming a little too comfortable, because The Queen Has Awakened: Anne Rice's Queen of the Damned has officially been confirmed as the successor to The Vampire Lestat. Which means the Summer Watchlist may be approaching the finish line, but the psychological damage has already been renewed for another season. Fantastic. Wonderful. Somebody hide my blood pressure cuff.Speaking of emotional damage, The Vampire Lestat, Season 1, Episode 6 arrives with a friendly reminder about that drink I previously recommended for Claudia-related emergencies. Yeah… make it a double. Maybe reinforce the glass. Possibly have a trusted friend nearby. I continue to encourage responsible drinking, of course, but this episode seems personally committed to testing the limits of responsible coping mechanisms. Just when you think the Claudia situation has finished rearranging the furniture inside your brain, the show walks back in carrying another couch and says, “Actually, we're putting this over here.” And finally, The Last Word — “Not Every Season Feels Finished When It Ends” takes us into the strange emotional purgatory of reaching the end of summer while feeling like somebody forgot to write the final scene.

In today's edition of The Update Journal, The weather changes all the time, but it seems like the people who don't realize this are the weather people on TV. News people aren't no better.

Make up your mind... oh, wait five minutes.I want to got old with my partner, but apparently, we have to survive the bedroom first. There's always that statistic that 50% of marriages end in divorce, and 75% of those people say it's because the bedroom got stale. I don't think that's fair. You can't spend years building a life together, then act shocked when "Netflix and early bedtime" beats "let's do something wild." Keep it fun. Keep it interesting. Communicate. Surprise them. And for the love of everything, don't introduce anything new in the dark without a warning. Because if they ask, "What are you doing?" you don't want to answer "Nothing." That's how bad nights start.And apparently, I'm the only thing left on my partner's schedule. In this transition period with my parents, apparently, I'm the only thing left on my partner's schedule.

Not because it's exercise. Because "it's good for us."

Hello everyone! We're going into #TheUpdate vault to play one of our many episodes throughout our many years of the show. For today's episode, we go into the world of Year 5 of The Update. When we first started this then-show at WKRB in 2017, the first year had a lot of things going on. Donald Trump's first year in office, mass shootings worldwide, and the Great American Solar Eclipse to name just a few. In Year 5, it was more of the same. There was the Russian war in Ukraine, more mass shootings in America, and the overturning of Roe V. Wade to name just a few that we'll mention.

We've done a lot of episodes throughout our many years of #TheUpdate, but some of them are my personal favorites. Every month, we're going to go into The Update vault and play one episode from my personal list of favorite episodes. I hope you enjoy them as much as i did hosting it.

Hello everyone! We're going into #TheUpdate vault to play one of our many episodes throughout our many years of the show. For today's episode, we're doing something a little bit different- a compilation of the best of Year 2 of the show. Having been in the anchor chair for a full year now, the amount of events just continued to pick up. Nikolas Cruz opening fire at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, Bill Cosby convicted on all three counts of aggravated indecent assault for drugging and sexually assaulting Andrea Constand, and Brett Kavanaugh being confirmed to the Supreme Court just to name a few. But despite all the heaviness of the news, me (and occasionally Cris too) found a way to have some fun doing it.

Today in The Update Journal, love is apparently in the air — but so is panic, confusion, and at least one NYPD officer standing by the elevator wondering how this became their shift. We're starting with the Empire State Building situation, where romance, daredevil behavior, and citywide trauma all met at the top of one of the most recognizable buildings on Earth. Because nothing says “big gesture” quite like making an entire city look up, freeze, and collectively ask, “Are we doing this today?”Then, we're taking one last look back at Season 19: the season that needed a fan, a MetroCard memorial, and possibly a licensed emotional support counselor. From heat warnings and humidity crimes to transit betrayal, school-year chaos, summer watchlists, vampire feelings, and enough personal commentary to fill a group therapy session, Season 19 really put us through it. It laughed, it ranted, it sweated through its shirt, and at some point, it probably asked ConEd for mercy.And finally, The Last Word closes things out with “America at 250: Fireworks, Freedom, and One Last Word Before Season 20.” We're saluting the country's big birthday with fireworks, history, summer chaos, and the kind of patriotic reflection that comes right before a long holiday weekend. America has made it to 250 years old, which means it deserves celebration, cake, and maybe a quick wellness check. So before Season 20 comes charging in with new drama, new segments, and fresh reasons to yell into the microphone, we're giving Season 19 the sendoff it deserves: loud, funny, slightly sweaty, and deeply exhausted.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Thursday, two people got to the top of the Empire State Building's antenna and unfurled a banner about “the power of love” at midday, before descending, embracing, taking selfies and ultimately being arrested.Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will celebrate their wedding at Madison Square Garden on Friday night, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the security plans.And in Mississippi, a family whose 1-year-old child was killed when police fired into a moving car offered evidence that they say challenges the officers' account that they were in danger when one opened fire.

Today in The Update Journal, we are spinning through workplace tension, vampire confusion, and weather conditions that should absolutely require a court appearance.First, The Chair That Keeps Spinning takes a look at one of those situations where you do not want to create drama, you do not want to make things awkward, and you definitely do not want to start throwing furniture — but emotionally? A couple of darts have already been sharpened, labeled, and placed neatly on the table.Then, the long-awaited Claudia Special finally arrives as part of our Interview With the Vampire summer watchlist with “Claudia, Confusion, and the Vampire HR Department.” Because at some point, somebody has to ask: who was in charge of onboarding this child into immortality? Was there a handbook? A benefits package? A complaint form? Because Claudia's file is already three inches thick, written in red ink, and probably locked in a cabinet labeled “Do Not Open Unless Emotionally Prepared.”And in Brandon's Take, we address the true villain of summer: humidity. Not heat. Not sunshine. Humidity. That invisible wet blanket that turns New York City into a crockpot with subway delays. Frankly, humidity should be illegal, fined, and forced to apologize to everyone who walked outside and immediately felt like a rotisserie chicken with student loans.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Wednesday, a wave of thunderstorms and hail could hammer the Big Apple on the Fourth of July as a vicious five-day heat dome cooks revelers in nearly 100-degree swelter – making the holiday the hottest in nearly 20 years.Mayor Mamdani's inaugural, record-breaking nearly $126 billion budget passed — growing city spending by more than $10 billion from last year despite his past dire warnings about the Big Apple's financial situation.And in Washington, a divided Supreme Court upheld a broad conception of birthright citizenship, rejecting President Trump's executive order declaring that children born to people who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens.
