  • Just like they’re from a different world.

    Katey probably loves The Studio and thinks it’s a very topical reading of our times for the nation which is a good indicator of how out of touch with anything outside of Hollywood these people are. Just an unbelievably smug host and gaggle of contributors.

  • Quit predicting

    Oscar season ruins so many podcasts. I’d rather hear Katy and Chris talk about the actual movies rather than acting like sportscasters. Oof.
