Kicking things off this week with a little Nintendo era freestyle, because nostalgia is good for the soul! Your hosts launch right into the pros and cons of Cameo - hit Wells up for your next birthday. Next up is a review of the new Bachelorette men - and you better get yourself a cold drink first, because these guys are getting ROASTED. But seriously, they had it coming - a cowboy from Newport Beach?? And why are there so many “entrepreneurs”? Brandi calls bs. They catch up on Traitors (Ron Funches = delight, Natalie = badass, Season 4 = elite), debate whether Wells needs a Survivor podcast, and spiral into TV and movie takes — Knights of the Seven Kingdoms, Wuthering Heights, Begonia, A Midnight Sky (tears were shed at the end), plus whether pitched up Morgan Wallen secretly sounds like Miley.

Mike and Angel dive headfirst into a loose, passionate conversation about this year's off-kilter Oscar nominations and the films they can't stop thinking about. From horror's long-overdue mainstream breakthrough to heated takes on Sinners, Weapons, Frankenstein, Begonia, Train Dreams, and the surprise joy of F1, the guys unpack what works and what doesn't. Along the way, they shout out under-seen gems like Rental Family, debate what makes a great Oscar movie, and dig into why genre films and international cinema are more alive than ever. The episode closes with a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Catherine O'Hara, celebrating her unmatched comedic brilliance, iconic performances, and lasting influence on movies and pop culture.
On this episode of THE FILM SITUATION, Zef sits down with intern Cole Howard to react to the 2026 Academy Award nominations (announced January 22, 2026) and talk through what the Best Picture lineup says about where cinema is right now. They get into the love hate relationship filmmakers have with awards season, how the “race” can feel like sports, and why it still matters even when it drives you crazy. Zef and Cole run through the big titles in the conversation, including SINNERS, MARTY SUPREME, TRAIN DREAMS, HAMNET, SENTIMENTAL VALUE, FRANKENSTEIN, BEGONIA, THE SECRET AGENT, ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, and the eyebrow raising Best Picture nominee F1. Expect a mix of real film geek insight, a few laughs, and plenty of honest takes about what feels deserved, what feels surprising, and what they are most excited to watch next.

With Oscar nominations just a day away, we lock in our final predictions for who will be nominated, not who will win.This clip comes from our sister show, The Oscars Outsider Podcast, where we go deep on the Best Picture race, debating locks, vulnerable contenders, international wildcards, and whether an animated film like K-Pop Demon Hunters could actually crack the final ten. We also dig into surprise possibilities like F1, Blue Moon, and where films like Train Dreams, Begonia, and The Secret Agent really stand.What starts as a prediction draft quickly turns into something else entirely: a live trade negotiation that reshapes both of our Best Picture slates and forces us to confront what really matters on nomination morning.If you want the full conversation, including our complete predictions, historical Oscar context, and the chaos that followed, you can find it on The Oscars Outsider Podcast.

Winnipeg's Alexa Dirks, better known by her stage name Begonia, is one of the coolest voices in alt-pop with a bombastic, technicolour sense of style.

She sits down with Tom Power to talk about the record, her critical acclaim, and the difference between Begonia the flamboyant performer and Alexa the songwriter (spoiler: they're not too different at all).

Begonias are known around the world as a plant of beauty and diversity. What can they teach us about the world around us? Through his work on Begonias and other flowering plants found in Northeast India, Professor Dipankar Borah sees the world differently. It's not just for his own benefit though.“Much of my time is spent making students aware of their surroundings,” He says. “We trek to forests, cook food from the wilderness, and then find joy in the simple yet profound experiences. Through these moments of exploration and laughter, I hope to rekindle their sense of wonder and then help them build the lasting bond with nature.”In this episode, let Dr. Borah invite you with joy and wonder into the world of Begonias. Dipankar Borah's paper “A new species Begonia ziroensis and a new record of Begonia siamensis from Arunachal Pradesh, Northeast India” is in volume 63 issue 1 of the New Zealand Journal of Botany.It can be found here: https://doi.org/10.1080/0028825X.2023.2295439A transcript of this episode can be found here: Dipankar Borah - TranscriptNew Species: Begonia ziroensisEpisode image credit: Dipankar Borah Read more on Dipankar's Researchgate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Dipankar-BorahAnd Follow him on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dipu.borah2/Be sure to follow New Species on Bluesky (@newspeciespodcast.bsky.social) and Instagram (@NewSpeciesPodcast) and like the podcast page on Facebook (www.facebook.com/NewSpeciesPodcast).Music in this podcast is "No More (Instrumental)," by HaTom (https://fanlink.to/HaTom)If you have questions or feedback about this podcast, please e-mail us at NewSpeciesPodcast@gmail.comIf you would like to support this podcast and enjoy bonus episodes, please consider doing so at https://www.patreon.com/NewSpeciesPod

There are fears big Wellington City Council budget cuts don't go far enough. The council yesterday voted in a mammoth meeting to make hundreds of millions of dollars of savings by slashing projects like cycleway spending, and demolishing Begonia House in the Botanic Gardens. Councillor Tony Randle told Mike Hosking the projects Mayor Tory Whanau managed to save, like the Golden Mile redevelopment and climate initiatives, should have been cut too. He claims they add more spending to the budget and says they now won't be able to make enough savings. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
