“Everything Everywhere All at Once” scored seven Oscars on Sunday night at the 95th Academy Awards, including best picture, best actress for Michelle Yeoh, best supporting actor for Ke Huy Quan and best supporting actress for Jamie Lee Curtis.

The Daniels — Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert — won best director and best original screenplay, and the film also took film editing. The only other movie to come close was "All Quiet on the Western Front" with four wins, while some notable nominees fell short. “Top Gun: Maverick,” which was hailed as the film that got moviegoers back into their seats, won only for sound, while another early favorite, "Elvis," went home without an Oscar.

Hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz break down the night, discussing the key wins, including Brendan Fraser taking best actor for “The Whale,” some surprises in the music categories, John Travolta's emotional introduction to the in memoriam section that featured Lenny Kravitz, Jimmy Kimmel's hosting efforts, the red ... err ... champagne carpet, the questionable inclusion of "The Little Mermaid" and, of course, Cocaine Bear.

We are just days away from the 95th Academy Awards, so there's no better time to discuss whether "Everything Everywhere All At Once" can follow its huge night at the SAG Awards and take the Oscar for Best Picture.

Michelle Yeoh, Stephanie Hsu, Jamie Lee Curtis and Ke Huy Quan are all up for Oscars in the acting categories and the Daniels — Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert — are also nominated for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay.

But before we dive into that, Bruce Miller gives his thoughts about the new movie "Cocaine Bear" and Terry Lipshetz discusses the new season of "The Mandalorian," getting caught up with "The Last of Us" and thoughts on Best Picture nominees "The Banshees of Inisherin" and "Everything Everywhere All At Once."

REVIEW: It doesn't take a cartel to see how goofy 'Cocaine Bear' is

Miller also has an interview with director Bobby Farrelly about his new movie "Champions" starring Woody Harrelson, which opens March 10.

Farrelly and his brother Peter Farrelly — also known as the Farrelly Brothers — made a name for themselves with comedies like "Dumb and Dumber," "Kingpin" with Harrelson and "There's Something About Mary."

Peter scored big with an Oscar win for "Green Book," which also created time for Bobby to do a solo project of his own with "Champions." 

We will be recording our next episode immediately after the Oscars so look for that in the early hours of Monday, March 13.

In this episode, we explore the 76th British Academy Film Awards — better know as the BAFTAs — and the upcoming Screen Actors Guild Awards. These are the final two big indicators as to which actors and films might win big at the upcoming Academy Awards on March 12.

Bruce Miller shares a story about Tom Hanks' kindness toward a friend, Ke Huy Quan's return to acting with his best supporting actor nomination for "Everything Everywhere All At Once" and whether he'll appear in "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny." He also shares his thoughts about "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania."

Terry Lipshetz is excited for the March 1 return of "The Mandalorian" on Disney+ and shares his thoughts on how Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau can pretty much do no wrong with the Star Wars franchise after a shaky reboot with J.J. Abrams and Rian Johnson's films.

The show wraps with Miller sharing his thoughts on the upcoming Hulu series from Mel Brooks: "History of the World, Part II." The series is a sequel of sorts to Brooks' 1981 film "History of the World, Part I."

Also, a program update: There will be a slight delay in our next episode as we have an exclusive interview with director Bobby Farrelly, who will be talking about his newest film "Champions" starring Woody Harrelson. Look for that on March 6.

It's a slow season for the silver screen, but Bruce Miller shares his thoughts on two movies he's seen recently.

"80 for Brady" stars Jane Fonda, Sally Field, Rita Moreno, Lily Tomlin and, of course, former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. It's a fitting, although disappointing, film heading into Super Bowl weekend.

Also out is "Knock at the Cabin," the latest horror/thriller from director M. Night Shyamalan, who made his name with "The Sixth Sense" but has not quite replicated that success since.

Miller also has an interview with Lacretta, who plays bailiff Donna "Gurgs" Gurganous on the rebooted NBC series "Night Court." The show, which stars Melissa Rauch of "The Big Bang Theory," has been surprise hit and was already renewed for a second season.

The reboot got us thinking of some other recent reboots that co-host Terry Lipshetz has loved or hated, such as "The X-Files," "Cobra Kai," "Murphy Brown" and "Seinfeld."
