We're reached 24 Best Picture Winners since the new millennium, and 3 goes into 24 quite nicely. So, our three hosts are walking out of this podcast with 8 Best Picture Winners. Surely the Academy will have selected 24 perfect winners . . . right?

OY THIS IS CONNER FOOKIN MCGREGOR TAKIN OVER THIS SHITE PODCAST DESCRIPTION. THESE STUPID LADS TALK ABOUT THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE FEATURING ME AS KNOX, THE BEST FIGHTER WITH THE BEST ASS YA EVER SEEN. I'M FOOKIN KNOX!

The second of our favorite brother filmmakers has released his first solo effort. How can we connect the dots between Ethan and Joel after this movie? What was Tricia Cooke's role in the film? How long can we talk about Matt Damon? Plus: the movie has more heart than realized at first glance, and Evan is a literal drive-away doll.

Boy oh boy, did the movies have a big night! We talk about our favorite speeches, and why Jimmy Kimmel works as a host (despite our misgivings). What was the best speech of the night? How will we look back on this ceremony? Plus: Chip gives an accounting for his . . . heavily editorialized live reactions on Twitter.

May thy knife chip and shatter - no, not Chip our host. We're huffing spice and chugging the life of water on this episode. Plus: Evan has a few hot takes.

No, the episode name isn't a typo, my keyboard isn't stuck. On the outside lane, we have Michael Mann's return to the big screen with FERRARI, and on the inside lane, we have recent entry to dad movie Hall of Fame, FORD V FERRARI. Will we stutter our way through the entire episode with this format? Why, oh why, did James Mangold make that Indiana Jones movie? Plus: a deep dive on Evan's cultural background.

Bradley Cooper made a movie about the guy from that R.E.M. song! We all marvel at the cinematography, but find lots of questions with the script. Does Bradley Cooper have the juice for Oscars future? Plus: Chip wants to bring back the Razzies . . . but for who?

The Oscars are sneaky good this year, despite what the headlines will tell you. What's the most loaded category? What potential spoilers would upset us the most? Plus: will Chip successfully trigger Jed?

The time has come. We've put the pens down (salute Aaron Sorkin) and our lists are ready to be unveiled. What surprises do the boys have up their sleeves? Who will experience instant regret after finalizing their list? Plus: what do picks 6-10 say about us?

We're playing catch up as we prepare to drop our top five lists of 2023. Sofia Coppola's PRISCILLA - a win for nepo babies everywhere? What's up with A24's Oscar campaign efforts this year? How does the story handle the fuzziness of the relationship dynamic? Plus: a long debate on Jacob Elordi and his movie star status.

We have never been so back. After our holiday break, we're reconnecting with an OG favorite trilogy. What unique flavors do the two directors bring to the trilogy? Have we re-evaluated our love for these movies after all these years? Plus: how does Bourne use the random citizens around him to his advantage, and how should that make us feel?

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Let's ring in the holidays with one of the year's most celebrated films, Todd Haynes' MAY DECEMBER. Which performance moved us the most? How do we parse the comedy versus tragedy classification? Plus: what *exactly* is Todd Haynes trying to say about our culture?

Merry Christmas, you philistines: Alexander Payne's THE HOLDOVERS charmed the socks off us. What are Giamatti's Oscar chances? How the hell was this shot on digital? Plus: a number of tangents ranging from Michael Mann to Jason Schwartzman.

Before the holidays and awards season kick into gear, we are taking a step back and recommending some movies, books, music, and recipes we've discovered. Jed's roasted chicken thighs and radishes recipe: https://cafehailee.com/recipes/roasted-chicken-thighs-and-radishes/

This year, we are thankful for David Fincher. We dive into the self-parodic (or self-serious?) Fassbender voiceover. Is there such thing as too many Smiths needle drops? Plus: are we one of the many, or one of the few?

Jed and Evan talk about a San Francisco core classic, David Fincher’s THE GAME. How well does it represent San Francisco from the perspective of (one current, one former) SF residents? Is Michael Douglas the hottest man alive? We try to answer.

Can you find the wolves in this podcast? Scorsese has given us another masterpiece. We try to discern some of the impressionistic scenes and visuals. The emotional beats of this movie are almost too much to handle. Plus: do we have any career best performances here?

We apply stringent deductive reasoning and logical examination to our GUY Kenneth Branagh's latest detective story. Are we finally figuring out Branagh's casting choices? Did Jed get too spooked from this Halloween tale? Plus: who should be in the next Poirot tale?

Netflix might not roll out the red carpet for these new Wes Anderson shorts, but we sure as hell will. HENRY SUGAR, THE SWAN, THE RATCATCHER, and POISON are all topics of discussion. Did we expect these particular stories from Wes? How do we feel about the format and marketing Netflix has done? Plus: Wes Anderson's horror sensibilities.

Gridiron gods, football fiends, pigskin pals: the baseball loving fellas at Flicking and Screaming are branching out into America's favorite contact sport. Why don't people appreciate Al Pacino and Denzel Washington enough in these films? What separates football movies from baseball movies? Plus: Will Patton's mint julep accent, and has John C. McGinley ever been bad in a movie?

We're chatting about one of the sneaky best new releases of the year. Topics range from BOOGIE NIGHTS to dissecting Ben Platt's career, along with cell phones in movies, child actors, and some unfortunate political jokes. Plus: Tatro talk.

For the third time, moviegoers said farewell to Indiana Jones. Did this go-around hit any nostalgia points, or did we find them all dried up? Will someone argue for a return to CRYSTAL SKULL? Plus: we think Steven Spielberg is a good director.
