In this episode, we delve into the latest political developments as Senate Republicans select Sen. John Thune as their new Majority Leader following Mitch McConnell's resignation. We also discuss the controversial statement from Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump's choice for secretary of defense, who has sparked a heated debate over women in combat roles. In a lighter, yet no less intriguing segment, we explore the unique legal dispute surrounding Peanut the Squirrel, whose former owner plans to sue New York state officials over the animal's unfortunate demise. Finally, we take a festive turn, discussing an unconventional twist on the holiday movie season where the evil one looks to challenge the dominance of jolly Saint Nick. <br />
