It's the third annual women's wrestling draft and this year Harley and Em are joined by Charity Davis and Carrie White of Queens Ring Podcast!
They compete to draft their own rosters, drawing wrestlers and broadcasters of marginalized genders from WWE, AEW, TNA, Japan, and the indies.  Who will be their #1 draft picks?  Which controversial picks will warrant debates?  Why is Harley being cancelled?  What is SUF?  And what did poor Nic Nemeth do to deserve this?

It's the start of an all-new, all-different Grit & Glitter!
With Harley and Em saying goodbye to G&G for personal reasons, new hosts Mayydayy and Lindsay kick off our next era, taking the show back to its roots in focusing solely on women's wrestling and the family-friendly action of WOW Superheroes.
This week they look at how season 10 has been going so far, potential challengers for the trios titles, and how the Beastification of WOW has been holding other women back.

Em and Don talk to two-thirds of The Matriarchy, "No Mercy" Zeke Mercer and Amanda Maslow!
They talk competing for 880 Wrestling, how The Matriarchy formed, representation in wrestling, the influence of Maria Kanellis-Bennett, and chasing the 880 tag titles.

Harley and Em are joined by Hoodslam's own Anton Voorhees and DARK Sheik for a wrestling media draft!
They compete to select some of their favorite wrestling books, movies, songs, t-shirts, and merchandise.  Which wrestler will land two books on the chart?  What body part makes the list?  Did Stone Cold and Shawn Michaels walk so Santino Marella and Nikki Bella could run?  Whose selfie made the list?
Listen, find out, and cast your vote for the winner over on our Instagram!

Harley flew from Toronto to Pittsburgh to join Glitterati members Em, Laz, and Don in attending Enjoy Wrestling's Dearly Beloved!
Harley and Em talk his weekend in Pittsburgh and spoiler-free thoughts on DARK Sheik presiding over the wedding of Billy Dixon and Sonny Kiss, MV Young vs. Jack Pollock in career vs. career, and more.
Plus: Harley sits down with Jordan Blade and Eel O'Neal to discuss intergender wrestling, what makes them so unique, and why now was the right time for the Best Business Bureau to reform.

Harley's back with another round of 20 Questions and this time he's joined by “The Nϋ Thing” Elle Valentine!
She discusses life in Boston, starting out with BLOWW, The Substance, career highs and lows, what her family thinks of her being a wrestler, and meeting Gangrel.
