ep. 23: Brendan's surprised a comedy was nominated for Best Picture. Brittany kept waiting for it to get good. They both are amazed by the number of nominations it received. Our first film for March's theme of Oscars-1986 is Prizzi's Honor (1985).

P.S. Our bad, it was Kathleen Turner who voiced Jessica Rabbit and it was Spencer Tracy who starred in Libeled Lady, not Clark Gable.

If for some reason you'd like to watch us talk to each other, this episode is now available on our Youtube channel. You can also e-mail us at [email protected]. Website coming soon!
