Listen to The Spectacle Podcast hosts Melissa Mackenzie and Scott McKay discuss lessons for the new year and what to leave behind in 2025. Melissa unleashes her grievances about her top pet peeves — the phrase “I don’t prefer it” and the usage of pronouns. She also discusses the perverse consequences of DEI and the strong need for DEI to be rooted out of society. Melissa also calls out the vaccine industry and how new research is showing the harm that vaccinations can cause children. Scott predicts that 2026 will be the year of video novels from authors themselves, which could usher in the end of Hollywood entertainment as we know it. (RELATED: 2025 Rear-View Awards)
