A Very Special Oscars Special

Yes, this is a five-hour episode. Luckily, we have time stamps available for you so you can hop around to hear about the Oscar categories you find most interesting.

With Laci out on assignment, Matt interviews a handful of friends and past guests of the show to preview Hollywood's Biggest Night™. With the Academy Awards ceremony looming in two days, he and his pals preview all of the major categories, and a few fun extra ones. 

So tune in for detailed conversations about movies like Anora, A Complete Unknown, Dune Part Two, Wicked, The Brutalist, Nosferatu, Inside Out 2, Emilia Perez, Nickel Boys, Sing Sing, Conclave, A Real Pain, The Substance, The Wild Robot, Kindom of the Planet of the Apes, and more! 

Next week: Laci triumphantly returns and we're joined by frist-time guest Austin Proctor of the Frightmares podcast to review Rob Zombie's The Devil's Rejects (2005).
