I guess, WWE wrestler John Cena Never Gets Sick Of Hearing His Theme Song …“It’s been about twenty years, and I’ve heard that music every night multiple times five nights a week and I never ever get sick of it” He plays a character named ‘Peacemaker’ in the new James Gunn movie “The Suicide Squad” that is tentatively scheduled for an August 6th, 2021 release.

Jason Sudeikis talks to Ellen about how he and his family kept busy through the pandemic..playing video games, his daughter loves to sing, and bought his son Otis a drum kit for his birthday way back in April…”Why? Exactly, because we’re idiots, we’re idiot actors..we’re, artists we don’t know what we’re doing..we’re just oy yoy yoy…”

And finally, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Ellen talks about the importance of getting checked…”I get checked on a regular basis, you get into a routine as much as nobody wants to do it I’m so used to it now. I went in a little while ago, I went into the room, opened up my gown, leaned against the weird machine and the doctor came in said put those away I’m a dentist. My point is those medical buildings are big…make sure you’re looking in the right door”
