Episode 23: Recapping the Oscars 2024
Have you had Kenough? Never! The Chair and Holly recap all things Oscars 2024 and finally put awards season to bed (we'll miss it! really!). We cover everything from winners to presenters to fashion, and everything in between -- and yes, we spend ample time gushing about the already iconic "I'm Just Ken" musical number (sorry, not sorry). The Chair avoids gloating about his impeccable predictions (Emma! Last Repair Shop!) in this episode that is chock full of all things glittery and golden!

Episode 21: Television Finales 2023: So long, Roys!
This television season saw the departure of some of our all time faves and Emmy darlings: The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Succession, Ted Lasso, and Barry. In this ep, the Chair and Holly unpack the final seasons of these critically acclaimed shows -- and ** SPOILER ALERT ** give our hot takes on the final installments. We'll miss those rascally Roys, the Greyhound underdogs, Noho Hank's style, but most of all Midge's humor and hats. With bonus Somebody Somewhere content (tini tinis for everyone!) and what we're looking forward to next. Did we mention there are spoilers?? You've been warned!

Episode 20: 'Everything' Oscar: The Recap
The Chair and Holly are back to discuss the 95th Oscars -- a night of well-produced entertaining television. Wait, is this the Twilight Zone? We unpack what made the night so charming and watchable (the speeches! the Daniels! that hot editor!) and why we have hope for future broadcasts. Of course we do have a few quibbles -- would you expect any less? Tune in for this ep covering it all, including the last time the Chair ever has to discuss Lydia Tár!

Episode 18: Playing it Safe: The 2023 Grammys
Did you really think we'd let an awards show go by without talking about it?! This time, the Chair is joined by very special guest (and friend of the pod) Dion Rabouin, as we dig deep into the 2023 Grammys! The Chair and Dion break down the biggest awards of the night and talk about what should have won (Renaissance... or maybe not?). Be prepared for some truly "unholy" takes (we see you Madonna). The Oscars even enters the conversation (duh). All this and more!
