EP. 311 — 2024 Oscars Special

This week Paul & Amy are digging into all things Oscars and the Best Picture Nominees of 2024. The two ask, “was Barbie the most culturally significant film of 2023 and could it win Best Picture?” and “should Killers of the Flower Moon and Poor Things be thirty minutes shorter?” Then, Paul and Amy challenge each other to get every Oscar category wrong, because they can’t help but to vote with their hearts. We invite you, the listener, to get the Oscars wrong with us!
