How many Indians are nominated for the 2026 Oscar Awards? More than we thought, but still, we are losing some steam on this front.

Our hosts debate who will win, who should win, and more this week!

Last year in Utah! And Sunrise went to say goodbye to all the Park City Pals. Matt joined virtually, and we got the scoop on the 2026 Final Park City Sundance!

February is made for love, and no one loves a love story more than our hosts. Which ones made the top of the list?

Our hosts watched the 1997 Shining so you don't have to, followed up by 2019's Doctor Sleep. And yes, Angela watched one with the sound muted.

Pod favs Cliff Curtis and Zahn McClarnon join the cast of Doctor Sleep to finish out Danny Torrance's story for an interesting addition to the King Universe.

How tropey does Derry get? Our hosts have all the feels about the new series on HBO Max. It takes us all back to the 60s and how Pennywise became the clown we all know and love?

2025 was...a...year. We've had a wild ride and are here to talk about it!

So long, 2025. You've been a year. To finish it off, let's talk about the last four episodes of FX's The Lowdown.

Thank you to our listeners for sticking with us for 4 years, and we hope 2026 will be the year you want! Be kind, and in the words of Rosebud Sioux citizen Bob Barker, please spay and neuter your pets.

Because no one asked for it, we, once again, revisit and discuss, "Edington" (not sure if it's spelled correctly, but too lazy to look it up).

Anyways, our all father, god creator extraordinaire, the OG, Jason Asenap graces us with his presence to talk about Edington.

Just like the mighty Cicada, Jason shows up every seven years and whips out his Tymbal to sing his shrilling chorus. Your ears will be blessed to hear such a song.

Also, we meander a bit and talk about the lovely power couple, Ramona Emerson and Kelly Byars -- and lavish them with words of love. Turns out they’re working on a documentary right now . we didn’t know at the time of the recording so keep your eyes up for that .

And as an added bonus, because all enquiring minds want to know, we discuss our favorite Taylor Swift era.

So, turn on, tune in and drop out.

The muzak is:

"Leavin' u wuz ez but lovin' u is hard" by Chahta Vba Isht Taloa Cocophony Broken Consort

Until the Gregorian calendar becomes measured by the eras of Taylor Swift, we won't just keep it real, we'll keep it

REEL INDIGENOUS!

Nominations for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences are all under consideration by voters right now, and WHAT!!?? Several Native films have qualified to be considered!

Tiger is a live-action documentary short about Dana Tiger and her family of artists, who changed the landscape of North American Indigenous art. Their t-shirts have been seen most recently in Reservation Dogs and The Lowdown (and are available online).

A family triumphant and devastated, the Tiger story is deftly told by documentarian Loren Waters, and it's now available to stream on FNX and Criterion.

Richard is a multi-hyphenate: artist, actor, activist, photographer. And he took time to sit down with our hosts to discuss his career, his experience on the set of American Indian Graffiti, and a host of other topics.

Quyana to Oklahoma Film Exchange for hosting our retrospective!
