EXPLAINER NATION! (Which is what you are all called now, thank you Haley for this idea!)
Our spin-off of the main show continues, and this episode, I have on my dear friend and co-host of BLEEPIN' SPACE, JIM! ( a Twitch show where I find out the joys and horrors of Star Trek: The Original Series), Haley!
Haley is also the host of Nominated, a biweekly movie club podcast about every movie nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award. Every episode covers one year's nominated movies and at the end of each episode, Haley and her guest select their Best Picture. Do they agree with the Academy? Eh, about 50-50.
That being said, Haley will absolutely dive into an analysis and research the heck out of whichever movies were nominated for that year, and for the years in which the Academy nominated TEN movies... good lord. Nominated is absolutely worth a listen, and highly recommend it for any cinephile or anyone that just enjoys good analysis!
However, we also tend to feed off each other, so over the course of this episode, we cover the story of Sacheen Littlefeather, a Native American Civil Rights activist whose LEAST exciting part of life was declining an Academy Award on Marlon Brando's behalf, drawing attention to the Wounded Knee occupation. Rapidly followed, of course, by my sharing the story of John Mytton, the one-man argument AGAINST the superiority of the British class system.
Finally, we go into two truths and a lie, where Haley tries to see if she can tell my very strange tidbits of facts from my artisanal crafted lies. You know how the game works. Does she succeed? Is there cursing? HOW IS THIS EPISODE THREE TIMES LONGER THAN SOME OF THE OTHER ONES?! Listen and find out!
