Grit & Glitter

(Originally aired April 2022.)

From balancing law school with time in the ROH Dojo, training under Daizee Haze, winning the PWI award for Rookie Of The Year, work in ROH, Shimmer, Stardom, and TJPW, meeting Speedball, and transitioning into commentary, this is the life and career of Veda Scott!

It's December again and that means two things:

1) Voting is now open for the 2025 Glitter Bombs!

2) It's time for our fifth annual Match Of The Year special!  The Glitterati are joined by a slew of guests including Rosie Fingers, Kayla Lopez, Brianna Bandz, and Rozie The Ref to gush about their favorite women's+ matches from 2025.

Em, Harley, and BFF Brian Bell celebrate Friendsgiving by taking at look at the phenomenon that is Wrestle Yr Friends!

What is it?  Where did it come from?  How does one actually wrestle their friends?  And is it just a silly goof or a radical political statement for a community in desperate need of brave spaces to exist in?  (Spoiler alert: it's the latter.)

While the Americans celebrate Thanksgiving week, the Canadians gift a special bonus episode to their friends south of the border.

Harley asks 20 Questions to Toronto indie wrestler Wanda Delrey!  They discuss life in Toronto, OperaMania, Amelia Earhart, childhood sweaters, and which dreamy WWE star first made her a wrestling fan.

It's list season and Em & Harley are looking at 40 years of People's Sexiest Man Alive!

Oh, and also the 2025 PWI Women's 250.

They discuss Mercedes Moné landing at #1 for the first time after not even ranking the last two years.  Plus: Who were this year's biggest debuts and biggest tumbles?  Who's ranked the most times over 18 years of lists?  Who's had the most top 10 appearances?  And which TV show has the highest percentage of their ranking this year?

It's the return of 20 Questions as Harley is joined by "The Iconic Diva" Brianna Bandz to discuss training under Logan Black at T2T Wrestling Academy, wrestling Sonny Kiss, how she spoils herself, what her family thinks of her being a wrestler, and Monster High.
