In today's episode, I am joined by returning friend and guest Jordan Criss, and as always, we have a great conversation centered around Jordan's interests, film, and TV. Of course, that means it's Oscar season, so we dive into the current controversy around the Oscars. Mainly with Spider-Man No Way Home, not having as many awards as one might expect when it garners over $1 billion at the theaters. From there we highlight films we are looking forward to this year. We finally closed discussing our thoughts on the controversy around Euphoria.
