The King welcomes Christian Toto, an award-winning journalist, film critic, and podcaster with more than 20 years experience covering Hollywood. He's the founder of Hollywood in Toto, a Rotten Tomatoes certified reviewer, and belongs to both the Critics’ Choice Association and the Denver Film Critics Society. We discuss the surprisingly pleasant and non-woke Academy Awards, the future of cinema, and whether Hollywood is finally figuring out that wokeness doesn't sell. Then Jon talks about DeSantis's controversial statement on Ukraine and the latest doings on Capitol Hill. Subscribe to the King of Stuff Spotify playlist featuring picks from the show.
