What did you think of the 97th Annual Academy Awards?

For this special Oscars 2025 wrap-up, we discuss the events, speeches, and winners of the 97th Annual Academy Awards. Including Conan O'Brien's hosting performance, the tweaking of original songs, what we REALLY thought about Adrien Brody's record-breaking speech. All this and more are up for grabs as we recap this year's Oscars!

The Academy Awards ("Oscars") are the most prestigious awards in filmmaking and showcase some of the greatest talent and work in motion pictures for that running year. The nominees and winners are selected by majority vote from members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Ballots are cast by members from within the industry and, in most categories, represent the corresponding branch (ex.: actors nominate actors).
