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.

With the best picture race still anyone's game, This Had Oscar Buzz co-host Chris Feil joins Katey to ask the big questions that will determine the race, from how international voters play into it to what Clint Eastwood might have in store. Then, Katey talks to Morgan Neville, the Oscar-winning documentarian whose new film Piece by Piece he's calling a work of "creative nonfiction" than a documentary — though he finds all the rules about that pretty silly anyway.
