It’s Christmas Eve at The Trawl HQ and the cheese is flowing, the Scrooged button is armed, and Marina and Jemma are doing their level best not to spiral.

Instead, they unwrap some unexpected festive joy as a trio of bell-ends Tommy Robinson, Jake Paul and Andrew Tate, discover the true meaning of consequences via the noble art of boxing. (Spoiler: pink gloves, broken jaws, and internet-wide schadenfreude feature heavily.)

Stateside, karma keeps busy. From the Vanity Fair brouhaha to Trump’s name mysteriously appearing on and disappearing from places it absolutely shouldn’t, including the Kennedy Center and the Epstein files. Yes, those Epstein files. Thousands released, thousands redacted, and somehow one name missing entirely.

Add in Nicki Minaj’s excruciating Trump-era foot-in-mouth moment, some festive under rateds and a Christmas 'pudding' story that may ruin your appetite entirely and you’ve got a very Trawl Christmas indeed.

Pour a stiff drink, pull on a metaphorical Christmas jumper, and join us.

We’ll be back on Boxing Day… obviously.
