The Grey NATO – 359 – The 2026 TGN "In" & "Out" List
It’s the first episode of the year (and also the first episode of TGN’s 10th year), and the boys figured it might be fun to offer a TGN take on the annual idea of the “In and Out List”, where each suggests things that they would like to do in 2026 (in) and things they would like to stop doing in 2026 (out). From cargo pants to watches, and even a surprise or two, it’s a fun and possibly useful list for the year ahead.
Stay in the mix for a Final Notes that will have you planning your year’s reading while you learn about a nuclear device that the CIA might have lost high on a mountain in the Himalayas. Thanks so much for listening.

Fun fact: Barry Bishop was wearing a 1959 Rolex GMT-Master with a radioactive bezel when that nuclear device was lost in the Himalayas.
Solid list of in and out! This is a great idea and reminder at the first of the year, and yes, please do add going forward.
