  • BONUS - 21st Century Oscar Snubs
    Mar 11 2026
    Roll out the red carpet because we're once again talking about the most important story of this month... The Oscars! This week, Dan leads Zach into the frightening place that is his brain and reveals what movies should or should not have won Oscars since 1999. Some years got it right, some years got it wrong, but the important thing to remember is that legacies and little statues last forever. That's what we all learned from that Percy Shelley poem "Ozymandias." If you like references like that, you'll love hearing about every movie ever made from Fight Club to Sinners. Give it a listen!
