In this 'starting to feel' festive-but-feral episode, Jemma and Marina wade through glitter explosions, Christmas tree catastrophes and a BBC News bauble-gate blooper before heading straight into the most unexpected love story of the season: Donald Trump going full&nbsp;<em>heart-eyes</em>&nbsp;for New York’s new Mayor-elect, Zohran Mamdani.</p><p><br></p><p>What was meant to be an explosive Oval Office showdown somehow turned into a political rom-com, complete with cheesy poses and Trump posting Mamdani like a teenage crush. We unpack the memes, the madness and the moment Trump’s ego got speared by Cupid.</p><p><br></p><p>But don't get too cosy because from there it’s back to the grim stuff: Trump resharing posts calling for Democrats to be hung, a “peace plan” for Ukraine that appears to have been written in Moscow, Europe’s furious backlash, and the Kremlin fingerprints smeared all over MAGA’s online army.</p><p><br></p><p>Plus a bang-on satirical closer from Alex With Pen.</p><p><br></p><p>It’s festive, furious and fully unhinged -&nbsp;exactly how you like it. Enjoy!</p><p><br></p><p>This is the link to the petition Marina mentions in the episode to 'call a public inquiry into Russian influence on UK Politics &amp; Democracy'.
