What the show is about?

We get it. You're running on coffee, dry shampoo, and hope.

You're the one who remembers everyone's dentist appointments, your mother-in-law's gluten intolerance, and which kid hates mushrooms but you can't remember where you put your phone. (It's in your hand. It's always in your hand.)

You're juggling work deadlines and permission slips, aging parents and teenage eye-rolls, big ambitions and bigger laundry piles - sometimes all before your first sip of coffee gets cold. Which it will. It always does.

You're doing approximately 47 things right now while listening to us.

A New Day with Lanette and Charlotte is your morning refuge. Not because we have all the answers (spoiler: we don't), but because we're living it too.

Lanette Hansen has been your morning companion for over 20 years—the friend who gets you, makes you laugh, and reminds you that "good enough" is actually pretty great.

Charlotte Deleste spent over 30 years as a TV journalist telling stories. She's also a nonprofit founder, a mom, and someone who knows that real community matters more than perfect Instagram posts.

Together, we're two women who've earned a few laugh lines, learned some hard lessons, and decided that Madison deserves a morning show that feels like sitting with friends who actually care.

We ask the questions you're thinking. We share the wins (even the tiny ones). We give you permission to be imperfect. We spotlight the people making Madison better. And we create a space where you're not alone in this beautiful, chaotic, occasionally ridiculous thing called life.

This isn't a morning show that talks at you. It's a morning show that gets you. Because you deserve more than background noise. You deserve to feel seen, heard, and a little less alone in the madness.

We’ll ask the things you’re already thinking.

“Is it normal to be this tired?”  Yes. It is.

We celebrate the wins — even the tiny ones.

You found matching socks? That’s elite-level parenting.

We give you permission to be imperfect.

Store-bought cookies are fine. Your kids will survive. So will you.

We shine a light on the people making Madison better, because good news matters. Community matters. You matter.

And mostly?

We create a space where you can exhale. This isn’t a morning show that talks at you. It’s one that feels like you’re in on it. We want you laughing in your car. Texting us your stories. Feeling like if you missed a morning, you’d actually miss something. Because you deserve more than background noise while you’re looking for your other shoe.

You deserve to feel seen. Heard. Understood.

And maybe a little less alone in the beautiful chaos.

WELCOME TO A NEW DAY

We saved you a seat. And possibly some cold coffee.
