Awards Radar: The Podcast

For episode number ten, I was joined once again by Myles Hughes, Ryan McQuade, and Steve Prusakowski for a good bit of fun. We answer a handful of questions, taking on where babies come from, debating the films of David Fincher, and even doing some Oscar talk. It’s madness, but do you expect any less out of us? I didn’t think so. As always, we had a blast doing the podcast, so if even a bit of it comes off in the recording, it should be a good time. Of course, let us know if you happen to agree…

Faithful readers, I hope you’re healthy and staying safe. Now, enjoy this tenth episode of the Awards Radar Podcast! Plus, feel free to revisit the previous installments by clicking the Podcast tab on the top of the page. More to come each week!

For episode nine, I was joined once again by Myles Hughes and Steve Prusakowski for a ton of fun, with Ryan McQuade joining in as well. We talk turkey, with Thanksgiving having been yesterday (though we recorded this episode back on Sunday). There’s also a long breakdown of the last decade in Best Visual Effects winners and nominees, buoyed by a reader question. Throw in a bit of Soul chatter, among other topics, and it’s a nice little grab bag of topics. As always, we had a blast doing the podcast, so if even a bit of it comes off in the recording, it should be a good time. Of course, let us know if you agree…

Everyone, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. Now, enjoy the ninth episode of the Awards Radar Podcast, and feel free to revisit the previous installments by clicking the Podcast tab on the top of the page. More to come each week!

With episode eight upon us, I was joined once again by Myles Hughes and Steve Prusakowski for a hearty bit of nonsense. We answer a listener/reader question that leads to a discussion of various Ron Howard films. We do a deep dive on Vince Vaughn, focusing on three movies in particular. Some of the recent Oscar contenders seen by yours truly get briefly talked about. It’s a hodgepodge of all of the things you’ve come to expect from us, so hopefully you enjoy it. As always, we enjoyed ourselves, so fingers crossed that the feeling is mutual!

For episode lucky number seven of the podcast, I was joined once again by Myles Hughes and Steve Prusakowski, as well as Max Joseph. We get the election out of our system, talking about Joe Biden‘s victory and Donald Trump‘s defeat. Yes, we even do a quick little comedy bit. Then, we get to the business of movies. In addition to taking reader questions, there’s a handful of different topics. Plus, the gang misunderstands a Patrick Swayze comment of mine, with some amusement ensuing. Fingers crossed you all have as good a time listening the this episode of the podcast as we did recording the damn thing.

*Special Note: At the start of this episode there’s an extra introduction. The podcast was recorded initially on Sunday morning, but the extra intro is from yesterday evening. Obviously, the election has swung in wild directions, so the added bit at the top addresses it. The full episode follows.*

A half dozen episodes in, I was joined once again by Myles Hughes and Steve Prusakowski. We joke a bit about the election (which hasn’t aged too well), but then go off in a number of directions. There’s talk of David Fincher‘s Mank, before the review embargo lifts tomorrow. There’s a farewell to Sean Connery and James Bond talk. Plus, we talk video games, too. There truly is something for everyone here with this podcast…

This time around, I was joined once again by Myles Hughes and Steve Prusakowski, but also welcomed back Robert Hamer to the world of podcasting. We tackle a handful of recent film news, as well as Halloween and the impending election. It’s a nice little hodgepodge of topics, complete with a mysterious creepy voice that bleeds into the audio at one point. A special shoutout will go to whomever comes up with the best explanation for what the voice is, what it’s saying, and why it’s there…

This time around, I was joined by Myles Hughes and Kendall Tinston to do a deep dive on the Saw franchise. Not only do we run down each of the installments in the series, we talk about the various traps, what we love about the iconic horror flicks, and what we laugh about. You even get some chatter about the video game, hopes for the upcoming Spiral: From the Book of Saw, and more. It’s a lot of fun, if we do say so ourselves. The three of us enjoyed ourselves immensely, so we hope you do too, especially if you’re a Saw fan. Indulgent? Perhaps a little. But, where else can you get yours truly doing an awful impression of John Kramer/The Jigsaw Killer? Exactly…

Enjoy the fourth episode of the Awards Radar Podcast and feel free to revisit the Saw franchise before, after, or during this podcast!

This time around, I’m joined by Abe Friedtanzer and Max Joseph to discuss the trailers for films like Mank, News of the World, and Promising Young Woman, as well as some Oscar talk in relation to each of these potential contenders. Plus, more horror movie and political movie recommendations to chew on, which leads to Abe and Max admitting to not being huge fans of the genre. Some gentle easing ensues…

Enjoy the second episode of the Awards Radar Podcast!

This time around, I was joined by Myles Hughes to tackle the gargantuan task of running down all of the films delayed in one form or another this year. It’s an epic list, one filled with movies coming out in 2021, 2022, and beyond (plus some random 2020 releases, still). As such, there are a number of tangents, as well as the teasing of a special Halloween edition of the podcast coming soon where Myles and I will be running down the SAW franchise with fellow Awards Radar writer Kendall Tinston. If you’re a fan of the franchise, it’s one not to miss…

Enjoy the third episode of the Awards Radar Podcast and look out for that special SAW edition of the podcast soon!

As promised, we are delighted to launch into orbit the Awards Radar Podcast. In each episode, Editor Joey Magidson (that’s me!) will be joined by some of the staff of Awards Radar to talk about the latest in film, television, and entertainment in general. The show will obviously have an awards season slant to it, but we won’t forget about other movies and shows, that’s for sure!

Starting things off, I’m joined by Myles Hughes and Steven Prusakowski to talk about a few Oscar categories, take a question from a reader (and now hopefully listener), and mix in as much silliness as possible. With it being almost Halloween and election season, we have some bonus movie recommendations to share as well, so listen for those…

Enjoy episode one of the podcast and be sure to let us know your thoughts!
