Katey Rich!

“Katey Rich is the foundational magic of this show.
The show has dealt with cycling major voices out over time yet managed to survive (even losing the fantastic Joanna Robinson!) and there’s not much bad to say about its various continuing contributors (Richard Lawson is particularly great with his quick wit).
However, the show really excelled with Rich’s presence on many levels. A great sense of flow to keep things on track, warm personal knack in interviews with thoughtful follow-up questions, encyclopedic knowledge of awards minutae, (not so much a podcast thing but I appreciated the degree to which she was a mindful writer about topics outside her own life experience,) and specifically she brought an every-person engagement of award season through her lived experience.
While there was a lot of valuable insight provided by her peers as feet on the ground at festivals or hearing things through industry connections, by not being in media hubs of the NY-LA scenes, Rich helped make these self-congratulatory industrial award ceremonies seem less “local” and more something for everyone to find “fun” in, if that’s their kind of thing.
A lot of the other award season coverage tends to come off Moneyball and coldly data-driven and somewhat smug, but Katey Rich could somehow both seem to know raw award stats inside and out while still calling attention to the quality of films or movies as art and/or entertainment.
While it seemed like she was pretty mindful to never score cheap points dunking on media she didn’t care for, I wholeheartedly trust her recommendations and wish she were still in a position to keep making a livelihood out of such a personal passion.”
