This is the perfect way to understand that nebulous time between Christmas and New Year's. Can't remember what day I'm on for the entire weekend. I blame age and the lack of regular podcasts for two weeks.
Has it been Sunday all day??? When did Saturday happen???

SANTA: Gulp.

SANTA: Maybe I can put you on the “Nice” list after all.
PREDATOR: Thanks, Santa. Also, I talk now.

Some notes: 1. Cap returning the Infinity Stones has always been a lingering story (it should have been D+ series imo) 2. This is clearly a Hail Mary play by Disney to right the ship before The Mutant Saga 3. The Russos have delivered the best Marvel films 4. The bigger issue is RDJ as Doom.
Marvel's decision to reintroduce Chris Evans' character Steve Rogers in Avengers: Doomsday has prompted backlash online, with many fans criticizing the move as a "desperate" attempt to win back audiences at the expense of newer characters, and especially Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson.

Everyone be nicer to Mark Cuban, his thin skin can only take so much.

Ha! Nobody likes Trump or anything he likes. Losers.
How bad was this? The White House asked Bari Weiss to spike the show in order to drum up interest
JUST IN: CBS’s Kennedy Center Honors just hit an all-time ratings low. Preliminary Nielsen data shows only ~2.65M viewers tuned in to the Trump-hosted show, down from 4.1M in 2024. A stunning 35% year-over-year collapse.

Do you remember the famous #Earthrise photo from #Apollo8? On Christmas Eve in 1968, William Anders turned his camera toward Earth and captured the legendary photo. It showed humans a new perspective, with the moon in the foreground and Earth floating in distant space. 🌎🚀🔭📸

Bari Weiss is so wildly unqualified for her job she didn't know to check for international streaming rights before spiking the 60 Minutes CECOT piece. Blame Canada.

Bari Weiss needs to resign from CBS News. Having watched Sunday's well-reported "60 Minutes" torture-prison story Weiss squelched, I can see no way for her to restore even a semblance of professional competency. She's an amateur, in way over her head, humiliating her talented staff of journalists.
