  • I miss Richard and David

    Title says it all. The new guy is annoying and has a grating voice, unfortunately.

  • Rebecca deserves better

    Vanity Fair should be ashamed— they drove the best awards season podcast into the ground by firing 3/4 of the talent that made the show so good. I hope Rebecca can jump ship soon because Vanity Fair is nothing but a corporate shill of a joke at this point.

  • The heart is gone

    Just not the same without Richard and David. Terrible decision by VF/Conde overall. RIP.

  • New version is a disaster

    All of Rebecca’s dry wit and genuine class can’t rescue listeners from the new guy’s grating voice, nasty attitude, and constant chuckling at his own (unfunny) quips. I gave this version a few weeks but it’s unlistenable. Unsubscribing today. Listen to Prestige Junkie instead, especially when Richard, David, or Rebecca come on as guests.

  • It's gone downhill - fast

    Updating my previous 5-star review in the aftermath of all the turnover at VF. Getting rid of David and Richard was such a dumb move. Especially after letting go of Katey the year before. Sorry to say it, but after years of being an avid VF devotee, this was my last connection to the publication. And now, I'm cutting it loose completely. Also, #RebeccaInnocent forever.

Mailbag: The Most Cutthroat Below-the-Line Oscar Races and What's Going on With the New Casting Category
Q: How do you think coinciding small screen performances help or hinder an Oscar race?
It's more likely for film performances to get recognized without the candidate's television roles influencing the Oscars, as seen in the past with multiple actors who have been recognized at both awards.

Q: What are your thoughts about the chances of Mona Fassfold's The Testament of Ann Lee?
