This week on the Long Island Tea Podcast, Sharon and Stacy recorded remotely as the 2026 Blizzard swept across the region, bringing snow, wind, and a reminder of just how resilient Long Islanders truly are. While we may have been out of the studio, we’re bringing you a shorter episode filled with powerful community stories—and we’ll be back in studio next week.
