Lee & Tammy Sanders are back! The holidays roll on and on this episode of WRESTLING with the TOPICS, the gang talk holiday shopping stress, gift ideas, and the growing popularity of Ancestry DNA kits—including what people really need to think about before gifting personal genetic data in 2025.

From there, we shift into D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser officially stepping down, the early media framing surrounding her exit, and what this moment means for the city going forward. Tams also sounds off on her Washington Commanders, the season so far, and the emotional rollercoaster that continues to define the franchise.

Then we move into the viral side of the internet with reactions to the latest public freakout dubbed Cinnabon Karen, and why these moments continue to dominate social media culture. We also discuss a disturbing national headline involving a Kansas teacher accused of misconduct with a student, and the ongoing concerns about accountability, safety, and systemic failures that keep showing up in stories like this.

From real-world chaos to wrestling business moves, we break down TNA WRESTLING officially landing a major television deal with AMC, what it means for live programming, production upgrades, long-term growth, and how the WWE–TNA relationship factors into this next chapter. We react to TNA President Carlos Silva’s detailed comments on audience expectations, creative integration, and how AMC plans to embed itself into the product.

We also tackle the developing controversy surrounding **Sarah Stock’s public accusations against AEW, including claims of corruption, unsafe priorities, and talent neglect, along with the sharply divided reactions from wrestlers and fans as AEW remains silent.

On the media business side, we dive into Netflix announcing plans to acquire Warner’s premium studio assets, including HBO and Warner Bros. Studios, while spinning off the traditional cable networks into a separate publicly traded company pending regulatory approval—and what that means for wrestling, sports, and entertainment distribution.

From boardrooms to the ring, **John Cena reveals his original retirement vision was a massive 220-date farewell tour, before WWE scaled it down to just 36 appearances. We also break down the **new federal lawsuit involving WWE, TKO, and John Cena** over the long-standing “The Time Is Now” theme song, with claims of unlicensed sampling and copyright infringement.
As always, it’s an unfiltered mix of wrestling, media, controversy, and cultural conversation—all in one place.
