Evening Daily News Update: February 2, 2026 – Groundhog Day Edition
By Garth Holmberg on 2 February 2026
Good evening, doomers! It’s your Evening Daily News Update on this fine Groundhog Day where Punxsutawney Phil predicted another 6 weeks of winter. Luckily for us in the state everyone wants to saw off from the rest of the US, we’ll be comfortable in about 2 weeks. Tonight is our first WWE Monday Night Raw as we hit the Road to WrestleMania: Las Vegas, and we’ll look at what to expect later in the previews. For your NBA action of the night, Minnesota visits Memphis and Philadelphia visits the Clippers in Peacock’s Double-Header.
We’ve got the usual gang of Monday Contributors putting in the work; Rock Star Gary has the next episode of World Championship Wrestling (broadcast on April 20th, 1985), Jabronville’s Joshi Spotlight shines on Odaiba W Explosion from September 2001, Logan’s World Was Watching the October 9th, 1994 episode of Challenge, and Yours Truly has the latest episode of JCW Lunacy, available on Psychopathic Records’ YouTube Channel, which streams new episodes every Thursday at 7pm. What kind of shenanigans took place? Click the link to find out… please. I need to get those numbers up or Scott said he’ll take my thumbs!
