Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle are joined once again by Molly Regan to share their thoughts on every major category in the 93rd annual Academy Awards ceremony (including all of the ones they definitely aren’t qualified to discuss, like cinematography).

It’s been a strange year for movies. With studios holding back on releasing their biggest films, there is a field full of unlikely contenders this time around. Will Hollywood take some chances and reward people they’d normally overlook? Probably not. But you’re going to watch anyway, so you might as well hype yourself up by listening to this extra-long episode.

This week’s music:

• Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
• End – “This Ain’t Hollywood” by Silence Is Sexy

Joel Murphy and Lars Periwinkle remember the life of the truly one of a kind rap icon DMX.

DMX has come up a number of times before on the show, so they also revisit two of those times – 1.) Hobo Radio 332, where they discussed the phrase “Twice as butt” from “Where The Hood At?” and 2.) Joel’s interview with Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, where they explained how getting the rights to “X Got’ Give It To Ya” was like an episode of Law and Order.

They also vent their frustrations with Netflix canceling shows prematurely and the Arclight Theaters closing.

• End – “X Gon’ Give It To Ya/No Diggity (Acoustic Mash-Up)” by Steven Smith

Her new Netflix show, City of Ghosts, is about a team of adorable young ghost hunters who travel around LA interviewing spirits and learning about the rich history of the city and its eclectic inhabitants. After a rough few years, it is essential comfort viewing.

We interviewed Ito about her career in animation, the development and execution of City of Ghosts and her anxiety about the child actors aging out of their parts.

Like all of you, we were heartbroken by the news that legendary actor Jessica Walter passed away. With a career that stretched over six decades, she was known in more recent years for playing two iconic matriarchs, Lucille Bluth on Arrested Development and Mallory Archer on Archer.

In 2016, we talked to her about season seven of Archer, her work on Arrested Development and the similarities between the two mothers she plays on those shows. Today, in honor of her passing, we are reposting the audio.
