The Analysis crew returns for their annual Oscars extravaganza, and this year the stakes are high. Matt shows up in full Elphaba costume after losing alast years bet. What's on the line this year? The loset has to go full chili dog hot dog experiment like Liam Neeson in Naked Gun, all while painted as "Hot Frankenstein Jacob Elordi. Bob is cautiously optimistic about the Academy for the first time in years, and Hollywood correspondent Spencer Davis joins live from the chaos of Oscar weekend to break down one of the most unpredictable races in recent memory.

Across a packed slate of categories, the trio debates the biggest battles of the night—from the Sinners vs. One Battle After Another showdown for Best Picture, to a wild Best Actor race featuring Timothée Chalamet, Michael B. Jordan, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Wagner Moura. They dive deep into the craft categories, argue about the chaotic shorts races that make or break ballots, and break down why this year’s nominations represent a rare mix of blockbuster spectacle and intimate filmmaking.

Along the way, they discuss the potential career-crowning Oscar for Paul Thomas Anderson, the cultural impact of K-Pop Demon Hunters, the emotional devastation of this year’s documentary lineup, and why some races might come down to pure momentum in the final days of voting.

It’s predictions, debates, hot takes, and Oscar chaos—plus a few existential questions like:

Should PTA have won years ago? Is Timothée Chalamet his own worst enemy? And what role would Philip Seymour Hoffman have played in One Battle After Another?

Grab your ballots and settle in—because by the end of the episode, the guys lock in their picks for every major category before the biggest night in Hollywood.
