Welcome to our very first Intermission episode! Today we chat about our top 10 favorite movie musicals (and some honorable mentions!) We don't want to spoil too much, but keep your mind on the musicals for next week's episode!

This year’s Academy Awards are brought to you by Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro! Today, we talk about the 63rd Academy Awards, and both Corey and Audrey have opinions about what won and what should have won. Kevin Costner dances with some wolves, Patrick Swayze does sexy pottery and Joe Pesci is NOT funny. We also have a few fun announcements this week!

Announcing INTERMISSION - since we’ll be switching to bi-weekly episodes, we’ll be serving up fun little mini-episodes on our off weeks that include the fun segments we usually tag on to the end of our episodes.

It’s been awhile since we’ve talked about more recent decades, so this week we dive into the 83rd Academy Awards, which brought us some great nominees like TRUE GRIT, THE KING'S SPEECH and INCEPTION, one of Christopher Nolan’s first mind-bending modern dramas. This week, Corey and Audrey also challenge each other to trivia - can you guess the quote from each of the top ten nominated films of the year?

Jimmy Stewart is back in business! In this episode, we talk about the post-war 19th Academy Awards, where we got some peak cinema (and snubs) at the ceremony this year. It’s also Corey’s birthday! To celebrate, we talk about some of our favorite, maybe even Oscar-worthy, scenes in film. Hey Academy, are you listening? We have a category for you. (Also, at this point, we should just give the bird outside Audrey’s apartment top billing.)

It’s a boozy episode of And the Award Goes To! Corey sips bourbon and talks about Francis Ford Coppola, and Audrey has almost no idea what’s going on. We talk about the films of 1974, including GODFATHER II, CHINATOWN and Corey’s strong opinions on YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN. Audrey considers BLAZING SADDLES peak cinema. Also, we give each other movies to go on “blind dates” with.

This week (what day is it?) we chat about the films of 1951, including QUO VADIS, A PLACE IN THE SUN, and THE AFRICAN QUEEN. Corey definitely has opinions on whether or not AN AMERICAN IN PARIS should have won this year, and Audrey has opinions on Marlon Brando. We also dreamcast one of the wildest documentaries to come out of this quarantine, TIGER KING.

You have my sword...and my bow...and my...Andrew? This week, we talk about the 2004 awards ceremony, where Lord of the Rings: Return of the King won BIG. We’re joined this week by Andrew Genemans, a great friend of ours and the podcast. We also talk about our Top 5 favorite film scores from 2000-2009.

We have been deprived of human interaction, so we have a LOT to talk about this week. We tackle the films of 1989 - the good, the bad and the ugly (not that movie, though.) This year, we see a lot of A-list actors receive their very first Academy awards or nominations. Audrey and Corey debate which Brit is better, Daniel Day-Lewis or Kenneth Branagh. They also discuss their top 5 actors who should have won an Oscar by now, but have not.

Welcome to And the Award Goes to - Lockdown Edition! This week, we discuss the 1967 Academy Awards, what one might consider a “sleeper” year. Prepare for some deep cuts and cult classics, along with some of the grittier films to appear in Hollywood after the cut-and-dry Golden Age of Hollywood.

Judy Garland, Jimmy Stewart, Greta Garbo - Oh my! 1939 was considered "Hollywood’s Greatest Year" , with the release of the blockbuster GONE WITH THE WIND and fan-favorite WIZARD OF OZ. In this episode, we talk about all the glitz and glamor of the 12th Academy Awards and all of the shakeups in each category. Also, Audrey learns that “Juggalo” and “gigolo” are not the same thing. By a long shot.
