This was one of my favorite podcasts. I love the hosts’ enthusiasm, research and their conversational tone. But the latest episode had the most obnoxious ads. Ad breaks felt like they came every 5-10 minutes . The new episode began and first thing I heard was an ad - a horrible first impression . They play mid-sentence , noticeably louder , and for obnoxious things like casinos and gambling.
I appreciate all the efforts behind this podcast and understand the hosts want to find a revenue ... more
Lukewarm takes, low-energy, weak analysis.
Just discovered this show this week so I’m catching up but the hosts have so much knowledge and demonstrate a genuine interest and love for movies and the Oscars.
While I appreciate their perspective, for a topic so fun these hosts have zero chemistry and seem just so terribly bored by their jobs.
I love discovering new film and awards podcasts. Sophia and Nick make a great duo. I am always impressed with the depth of knowledge of film history. I have a little soft spot for Sophia. Her love of the films from the 70’s, what I consider the greatest decade in cinema as well. We also share a common love for Faye Dunaway, Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Daniel Day Lewis, Altman, Scorsese, and PTA. Keep up the great work.

Two film-focused hosts dive into modern releases, Oscar season trends, festival buzz, and deep historical context, all with lively banter and strong knowledge of cinema history. Episodes span previews, contending films, and post-event analyses, often weighing precursors, guild results, and industry shifts, offering actionable insights for listeners planning sponsorships, guest appearances, or targeted promotions in awards season storytelling. A standout is the duo's consistent blend of rigorous film critique with approachable, conversational energy, plus a willingness to explore both crowd-pleasing hits and niche archival conversations.
