The Mets are back, and so is Grace. She starts by discussing some major spring training storylines she missed, and then discusses the beginning of the 2025 season. She also talks about Daniel Murphy's addition to the SNY broadcast team and thorny emotions that has and continues to provide.

Next, she gets into the Oscars. The highs, the lows, the good, the very very bad. She discusses the No Other Land win and subsequent attack on one of it's co-directors, and the recent drama with Rachel Zegler and how disingenuous it all feels to pile on a young girl for her beliefs.

Finally, a 2025-centric movie minute. One gigantic satire, and one sly, sexy espionage thriller. Both excellent in their own ways, but two very different vibes to be sure.
