This summer your favorite women's wrestling podcast will be hitting a landmark 250 episodes.  As we continue our trek toward that destination, let's take this week to revisit another landmark - our 100th episode from August 2021.
On the 100th episode of G&G we took you on a journey through the history of this podcast, from conception to execution and the assembling of The Glitterati.

It was a double-header weekend of women's wrestling from two of the big three.
Harley, Em, and Mayydayy discuss the Knockouts action at TNA Rebellion including Jordynne Grace and Steph De Lander being overrun by a bunch of men, Decay's greatest hits tour, the disappearance of Killer Kelly, and the slow build of Ash By Elegance.
Then: Em and Harley talk the ladies of AEW Dynasty including Willow Nightingale clobbering Julia Hart in six minutes, Toni Storm and Thunder Rosa wrestling a good match, Mina Shirakawa, and whether Mercedes Moné will actually win the TBS title.

On the season 12 premiere of Grit & Glitter, it's the 2024 women's wrestling draft!
This year Harley and Em are joined by Tess Schmucker (Women's Wrestling Watch) and Meg James (Gravy Bowl) to compete to draft their own rosters, drawing wrestlers and broadcasters of marginalized genders from WWE, AEW, TNA, Japan, and the indies with each of them trying to build the strongest all-around roster.
Who will be their #1 draft picks?  Which wrestlers will be the most coveted?  Which top stars will go unclaimed?  And which promotion will prove the hardest to draw from?
