Tyler Coates joins Katey to talk about why the Oscars and politics are so eternally entwined, and how no matter what happens in Tuesday's election, the impact will be felt throughout the season. The episode also includes a conversation with June Squibb, the 94-year-old star of the summertime hit Thelma, who has a lot of wisdom about tackling physical challenges small and large and putting her trust in a first-time director.
