The Tower of Babble Podcast has always kept at least one eye trained on the biggest movie awards show of the year. The coverage has come in a variety of forms over the years. We've done round table previews with friends of the show. We've done smaller more intimate affairs with just a 2 movie lovers talking about their favorites from the nominees. We've even done live sessions on Twitter spaces. This year we return to the Twitter spaces format with Julian doing a solo show in which he gives his thoughts on the ceremony itself, before getting into each of the Best Picture nominees with thoughts on the winners from each category sprinkled throughout. What will next year's converge look like?

Attached are the ballots that Julian completed ahead of the show, which include the after show scoring in both formats which are traditional to ToB Oscars coverage: Who we want to win (i.e. our favorites from each category) vs Who will/should win (i.e. what is most likely to be selected by the Academy).

For quick reference the scoring was as follows:

Julian - Who We Want to Win: 9/23

Julian - Who Will/Should Win: 12/23
