Podcast appearances and mentions of Paul Thomas Anderson

The Munsons welcome back our favorite bald guest Munson, Chip Hessenflow, to dive into the strange, fascinating, and deeply anxious world of Giovanni Ribisi. From the jump, we're captivated by Ribisi's obsession with cinematography, vintage cameras, and filmmaking technology—so much so that he literally loans equipment out to legendary directors like Paul Thomas Anderson. Naturally, this leads us into discussing one of the more unusual distinctions in Munson's history: Giovanni becomes the first practicing Scientologist we've covered in 136 episodes. We spend a shocking amount of time talking about Boiler Room (seriously, keep count at home), while James takes a passionate detour into why the Avatar franchise actually rules and continues to hold up better than people want to admit. Along the way, we explore how Ribisi essentially cornered the market in Hollywood on playing “the weird guy,” weaponizing his nervous, twitchy, anxious energy into one of the most unique character actor careers of his era. We revisit his endless string of early television appearances, uncover just how many massive Friends fans are apparently on this podcast, and celebrate his memorable run on the series. The deeper we go, the more impressed we become by the absolutely loaded list of directors and co-stars Ribisi worked with throughout the late 90s and early 2000s—a résumé that quietly stacks up against almost anyone from that generation. How does he rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.

This week we discuss one of our favorite films of all time, "There Will Be Blood." We discuss the five years in between this and his previous film, "Punch-Drunk Love." After we cover the background, we dive into the film itself doing plenty of Daniel Plainview impressions along the way. Finally, we each pair the film with another for a pair of double bills for your viewing pleasure.Thank you so much for listening!Support us at Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/DoubleBillChillCreated by Spike Alkire & Jake KelleyTheme Song by Breck McGoughFollow us on Instagram: @DoubleBillChillLetterboxd: FartsDomino44

At one time or another, every director was a no-name. Someone had to give them chance. Paul Thomas Anderson tested what works in Hard Eight (1996) and showcased what he could do in Boogie Nights (1997). You can see the growth of the filmmaker as well as some of the common actors used. Let us know what you think of these films.

Imagine a world where, whenever you think you are alone, there are always a bunch of dudes in trench coats quietly standing behind you and resting their hands on your shoulder.  And they can read your mind.  And they talk about you to their friends.  And sometimes they sneak into your dreams. Now imagine that there is nothing creepy about that and it's actually very reassuring.  And that maybe we can find world peace through understanding and a new kind of politically-informed spirituality.  Thanks to these trench coat guys. *Come support the podcast and get yourself or someone you love a random gift at our merch store.  T-shirts, hoodies, mugs, stickers, and more! If you'd like to watch ahead for next week's film, we will be discussing and reviewing Paul Thomas Anderson's Boogie Nights (1997).

[A crosspost with Hollywood Woketopia, my other Substack]Every so often, a moment in culture arrives, a Sydney Sweeney ad, or Project Hail Mary. Every time, we hear that the Woke fever has finally broken. Hollywood cares about the people again. Right?The same reason Kamala Harris is likely to be the nominee in 2028, the same reason the Democrats are still selling the lie that any kind of attempt by Republicans to even out the redistricting is “Jim Crow 2.0,” is proof enough that on the Left, Woke is not going anywhere. It is who they are now. Not all of them, but the most powerful among them.Early on, when Mark Halperin and others were insisting Gavin Newsom would be the nominee in 2028, I said there was no way the Democrats would get behind a white guy, no matter how passionately he genuflects to the Woke (“Anti-woke is anti-black!”). I know the Democrats. I was one. I helped build the modern-day party of the Great Feminization and the Great Awokening. I know what fires them up every day, and it isn't just taking back power; it's foisting their religion upon the rest of us.They think it's the opposite, that it's the Right that is foisting their “Christian Nationalism” upon them. While it's true that a faction of the Right has unmasked to become the very thing Rob Reiner warned about in his movie, God and Country, they aren't the majority. Perhaps that's true on the Left. But look around. Their religion is the dominant culture in America.When news got out that Christopher Nolan had cast Lupita Nyong'o as Helen of Troy, the “most beautiful woman in the world,” whose face launched a thousand ships, it ignited yet another culture war. How you reacted was like whether or not you wore a mask outside in 2020. It was a test. You're on one side, or you're on the other. Notice it, comment on it, object to it, criticize it, and you're one of the bad people to be purged. And if that weren't enough, Nolan brought back Ellen Page from Inception, now recast as Elliot Page, the male, as an act of affirmation and yet another test. These are Orwellian 2+2=5 and force people to choose between ignoring it and going to see a big-effects movie in IMAX, or not buying a ticket and boycotting the film. Elon Musk took the bait, becoming the villain Hollywood needed to turn seeing The Odyssey into a righteous and political act. You can see them now: the bearded male feminists buying tickets ten times in a row. “Take that, Elon Musk!” The ladies of Blue Sky will go in groups, then fawn over how beautiful Lupita Nyong'o is and overuse the male pronoun for Ellen/Elliot Page. “Wasn't he great?”The game is becoming exhausting by now, as Hollywood demands the hard-working American public be impressed by them, lectured by them, and corrected by them. All audiences really want is the one thing Hollywood seems unable to accomplish: entertain them.It isn't that Nyong'o isn't pretty. She is. It's that Helen of Troy was white, famously so, even if Greek. Nyong'o is a unique beauty, not a universal one, a reality the Left wants to force, because Hollywood doesn't care about its audience. They want to look good.Probably the worst thing about the game Hollywood plays with the movie fans they helped raise is that Lupita Nyong'o is held out as a sacrificial lamb. She isn't pushing any ideology, unlike Ellen/Elliot Page. They are putting her out there and expecting her to absorb criticism about herself, including whether she is pretty enough. I met her once, back in 2013 in Telluride, before her career took off. She was too young to know how to act like a celebrity. She was so nice, I was won over. She would win an Oscar that year and become a big star in Hollywood. Is it fair to put her in this position just so they can feel good about themselves? No. Does it change anything? No. There is still such a thing as truth and reality, even if that is the thing that is unfair. The Woke Code and the Hays CodeThe Hays Code (1930-1968) represented an era wherein decency and morality were mandated in all Hollywood films. The Christian conservatism/morality mandated by the Hays Code reflected less a separation between art and governance and more a united effort toward a utopian society of goodness, especially as we moved through the last Fourth Turning, the Great Depression, and World War II, a time where the world saw true evil in Hitler and Stalin, not to mention the nuclear bomb.That isn't all that different from what the Woke Code is now. It's roughly the same kind of thing: rigid rules to depict an ideal society. The difference is that Christian advocates have been replaced by progressive activists, and the villain is the white male patriarchy. What is different now, amid our current Fourth Turning, is that the Woke Code includes only half of America. To the Left, they would rewrite this narrative to say that Hollywood depicted mostly White America, and that is what has changed. But really, if you respond to the box office, as Hollywood doesn't anymore, you will always default to the majority. It isn't rocket science — beautiful, sexy women and masculine men and a great story.The end of the Hays Code was entirely due to economics. Television became so popular in the 1950s that there wasn't much of a need to go to the movies if all you saw was the same kind of buttoned-up themes you could see on TV. That's true now, too. Movies, then, had to break out of the Hays Code and become much more subversive, leading into the 1970s, which saw some of the best films ever made. While it's true that The Odyssey will be eligible to win Oscars under the new rules, it's also true that the criteria could have been met in a way that didn't make audiences play this same exhausting game that has alienated them from everything Hollywood puts out. The casting of Nyong'o and Page is less about Oscars and more about status. Perhaps Nolan was under pressure to cast a non-white woman as Helen, or maybe he wants to be seen as a good person using his wealth and fame to make change, as the most famous white male directors reach for things money can't buy, like Martin Scorsese making Killers of the Flower Moon, Steven Spielberg making West Side Story with a real Latina, and Paul Thomas Anderson's Peak Woke Best Picture winner, One Battle After Another.No film has better exemplified Hollywood in the Trump era than this one. It says it all. ICE as the Gestapo, check. America is run by a cabal of wealthy white Nazis, check. A woman of color must save herself, check. All of it is held together by a hapless white man, Leonardo DiCaprio, who represents the film's beating heart. He's the only good white guy, which is how those in Hollywood who make these kinds of choices would like to be seen. One Battle is actually a movie about them.Had Nolan cast a blue-eyed blonde woman as Helen of Troy, all hell would have broken loose. When you go against the rules of the Woketopia, you aren't just getting hit on X with lots of angry tweets by loyal fans who continually feel betrayed; they bring out the big guns - agonizing op-eds in the New Yorker, for instance. If you obey the rules, then you are praised. The problem is that it all feels so artificial, so pre-planned, so inorganic.I used to write the Oscars report for Jane Fonda's Women's Media Center (who fired me after they found out I voted for Trump), counting the number of female nominees and winners. The statistics were always grim. Every year, it was bad news. As things began to change for women after the Academy announced its DEI mandate in 2020, that change was forced. If before merit had made too many white men winners, now we were seeing something a little closer to gender parity. So then the line moved back, and it became not just about women but women of color and trans women. Now, it's all about Marxism disguised as art. If life isn't fair, movies will make it fair. It isn't just because the Oscars have it written into their new rules, and it isn't just because activist groups like GLAAD breathe down the neck of every Hollywood studio, counting heads and making reports. It's that this is a deeply felt belief system that isn't going anywhere anytime soon. I have no doubt The Odyssey will make money. It's a Christopher Nolan film, after all. Who doesn't want to go see a giant visual effects epic filmed entirely on IMAX? If you can ignore the elephant in the room, the performative casting, you might have a great time. But if you were hoping that Woke is over, well, I think that was its own Hollywood fairy tale. It's why Kamala Harris was the nominee in 2024 and why she will once again be the nominee in 2028. This is how the ruling class in America wants to be represented. They want to force change, and they do that by elevating minority groups to high-status positions as symbols for the mostly white people who run things.Culture, like the Democratic Party, will have to be built anew. That, more than anything, explains why AI is about to completely consume the business, becoming the subversive counterculture revolution Hollywood never saw coming. They can do it all and more without the millions of dollars necessary to mount a production. AI artists don't have to be held to the same rigid standards. They can be purely about bringing in eyeballs by showing what people most want to see, rather than what Hollywood wants them to want to see. In other words, they can make the women as beautiful as they want, and no one can cancel them for it. I spent my life in movie theaters gazing up at the big screen and watching some of the best films ever made. The only way that makes sense is if you are escaping real life and finding your way into a fantasy world, and maybe for the Woke, seeing Lupita Nyong'o cast as the most beautiful woman in the world is its own kind of fantasy fulfillment. After the movie comes out, we'll have to see whether it works or not. At the moment, it feels like just another test to decide who gets to stay and who has to go. This is a public episode.

What are the best movies from six of the greatest directors ever? Lance Taylor and Tyler Johns go filmmaker by filmmaker through the careers of Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsese, David Fincher, Paul Thomas Anderson, Stanley Kubrick, and Christopher Nolan to choose the films that best define each director. From Tarantino's pop-culture-changing Pulp Fiction to Scorsese's gangster classic Goodfellas, Fincher's dark thriller Seven, PTA's powerhouse drama There Will Be Blood, Kubrick's horror landmark The Shining, and Nolan's massive historical epic Oppenheimer, this episode is a full movie-lover deep dive. The guys also discuss the difference between a director's “best” movie and their personal favorite, why some films age better than others, and how certain movies reshape an entire genre. Before the main topic, Lance and Tyler review recent viewings including Who Will Stop the Rain?, Marathon Man, Billy Idol Should Be Dead, Hooper, Widow's Bay, Mortal Kombat 2, and Batman Beyond. #BestFilms #BestMovies #LegendaryDirectors #QuentinTarantino #MartinScorsese #ChristopherNolan #StanleyKubrick #DavidFincher #PaulThomasAnderson #PulpFiction #Goodfellas #Oppenheimer #TheShining #TheNextReel #moviereview SUBSCRIBE: @NextRoundLive - / @nextroundlive FOLLOW TNR ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/7zlofzLZht7dYxjNcBNpWN FOLLOW TNR ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-next-round/id1797862560 WEBSITE: https://nextroundlive.com/ MOBILE APP: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-next-round/id1580807480 SHOP THE NEXT ROUND STORE: https://nextround.store/ Like TNR on Facebook: / nextroundlive Follow TNR on Twitter: / nextroundlive Follow TNR on Instagram: / nextroundlive Follow everyone from the show on Twitter: Jim Dunaway: / jimdunaway Ryan Brown: / ryanbrownlive Lance Taylor: / thelancetaylor Scott Forester: / scottforestertv Tyler Johns: /TylerJohnsTNR Sponsor the show: sales@nextroundlive.com Learn more about your ad choices.

We last talked about Paul Thomas Anderson's Magnolia nearly four years ago, so given Anderson recently (finally) won an Oscar for One Battle After Another, what better time than now for a revisit? Magnolia was a modest commercial success at the time but was lauded by critics, became something of a cult hit, and eventually worked its way into the cultural zeitgeist, in no so small part due to Tom Cruise's character Frank TJ Mackey (and his, uh...speeches). The film has, for a number of reasons, taken on new cultural significance in the ensuing years, and as Anderson's oeuvre grows ever larger, we wanted to know how and where Magnolia fits. Joining us this time is Holly Brown, Magnolia super fan and host/creator of the new podcast Everybody Knows But Me You can find out more about Holly at her website: https://www.hollyanabelbrown.com/

She helps hold together some of the biggest films in Hollywood, solving impossible problems with gravity, camera rigs and pure instinct. This week on Cinemapodgrapher, we are joined by legendary Key Grip Tana Dubbe. Starting out taking stills in New York before moving into film, Tanner has spent more than 25 years building a career across some of the industry's biggest productions including Iron Man, The Bling Ring and One Battle After Another. In this conversation, Tanner breaks down the differences between American and Australian grip departments, building high performance grip teams, shaping light with cinematographers, and why gripping is all about problem solving. We also dive deep into the making of One Battle After Another, including the VistaVision camera builds, long lens remote head testing, handheld car work, the Texas dip sequence, and working inside the controlled chaos of Paul Thomas Anderson's process. Powered by Sony technology. Produced by Deb Van Dieren. Hosted by Josh Calder.

Forgive us our slight post-Oscar delay, dear listeners, but here we are for our eighth annual year-end review show, which we call 2025: Juke Joints and a Few Small Beers in honor of two of the year's (and perhaps the decade's or even the century's) most unforgettable films. This episode represents an exciting step for us as, for the first time, we welcome a guest: the redoubtable Kerry Cowan, brilliant teacher, lifelong film fan, and an old old friend of mine. Looking back at the year in film that was 2025, we noted that this was the first year since we started back in 2018 that we all really had trouble narrowing the field to a top ten. In the past, we've often had to stretch for the last couple, ending up with Top 7 or Top 8 lists. This year, as you shall see below and hear within, our problem was what to leave off. In a year of triumphs from sources both expected and unexpected, perhaps the best thing about the year was the return to form of some of our favorite directors: Coogler with "Sinners", PTA with "One Battle", our beloved Chloe with "Hamnet", Aronofsky with the underseen "Caught Stealing", Del Toro with "Frankenstein", Aster with "Eddington", Bigelow with "House of Dynamite" and the astonishing Richard Linklater with not one but two wonderful films. As always, we considered the eternal question of which of these films will be watched by anyone in 25 years, let alone show up the Sight and Sound poll in 2032. No doubt whatsoever about "Sinners" and "One Battle". I would throw "Eddington" on that list, as uneven as it is, since it points to a vivid moment in the American pageant, reminding us exactly when it was that we lost our minds. "Hamnet" will surely be there, and we suspect that the luminous "Train Dreams" might have some legs down the road. With Michael in the lead, we all loved "Sentimental Value" (besides the facial morph montage). None of us cared much for "Bugonia", though I actually came within 10 minutes of liking a Lanthimos film before that ending. We also ended up underwhelmed by "Marty Supreme", which personally killed me with its 50's setting clashing with 80's synth-pop throughout. Yes, we would have gotten the idea that the go-go Wall Street/American Psycho 80's had its roots in figures from the 50's like Marty without being hit over the head with it musically. Trust your audience, filmmakers! As for the Oscars themselves, it was another great party this year, only slightly spoiled by the fact that Michael won the pool by a landslide again this year. It's now 98 years and running with no black person winning for Best Director, but it's hard to complain about Paul Thomas Anderson finally winning after 14 nominations in almost 30 years of work. And the Cinematography award going to Autumn Durald Arkapaw, the first woman and black person to win that one, indicates that we may in fact be making progress. And they got it right with Michael B (finally), the lit-from-within Jessie Buckley (best acceptance speech), and "Sentimental Value"'s win for Foreign Language Film. As for the show itself, Conan was fine, though the bits were hit and miss as usual. We loved the "Bridesmaids" reunion, the "Moulin Rouge!" one not so much, and loved the painfully accurate "Casablanca" bit with Sterling K. Brown where plot elements have to be restated every couple of minutes or so to accommodate declining attention spans. And they finally got the necrology right, though we wish we had more time to see who came onstage for Rob Reiner; Rachel McAdams' tribute to Diane Keaton was lovely, but it did turn out that Babs' singing voice was not exactly like butter.

On September 26, 2025, last year’s Best Picture Oscar winner, One Battle After Another, a loose adaptation of Thomas Pynchon’s novel Vineland, hit wide release in theaters. And then 11 days later, on October 7, Pynchon published what might be his final novel, Shadow Ticket. Not a bad year for an 88-year-old writer. This hour, a look at the (maybe) reclusive Pynchon and the novels and stories he’s published, from Gravity’s Rainbow to Mason & Dixon and more. Plus: a look at the two Paul Thomas Anderson movies that Pynchon’s work has inspired, Inherent Vice and One Battle After Another. GUESTS: David Cowart: Distinguished professor emeritus of English language and literature at the University of South Carolina and the author of a number of books, including Thomas Pynchon: The Art of Allusion and Thomas Pynchon and the Dark Passages of History Ana Gavrilovska: A writer; you can find her work in Current Affairs, Uncut Magazine, Maggot Brain, and her Substack, Sick Sad Motherslug Leonardo Goi: A journalist and film critic Brian Slattery: A writer and musician Music featured (in order): Don Giovanni, K. 527: Overture – W.A. Mozart as performed by Claudio Abbado and the Chamber Orchestra of EuropeThe most referenced piece of music in Pynchon’s catalogue. Gravity’s Angel – Laurie Anderson The Royal Scam – Steely DanMentioned in Bleeding Edge. Run Straight Down – Warren ZevonZevon attributed this song to overdosing on Pynchon — the opening words are just carcinogenic chemicals. Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) – Bonzo Dog BandPynchon put out his own playlist for Inherent Vice. This was on it.

Ontem eu sentei pra assistir ao Oscar e fiquei com a impressão de que eles estavam com pressa. Parecia que todo mundo só queria ir embora logo, o que é curioso para uma premiação que supostamente celebra a arte. A gente conversou bastante sobre isso na live. Falei sobre os absurdos dessa edição, sobre como a atuação sutil do Wagner Moura merecia muito mais reconhecimento do que algumas caricaturas que acabaram sendo premiadas, e sobre como Bugônia provavelmente vai ser o filme que a gente vai lembrar daqui a dez anos, enquanto os outros desaparecem no catálogo de algum streaming.Também aproveitei para organizar os indicados a Melhor Filme, do pior ao melhor, e montar uma tier list definitiva do Paul Thomas Anderson, porque acho que algumas pessoas estão meio perdidas sobre essa fase mais recente dele.Este canal é um espaço novo. Um lugar para quem tem entre vinte e quarenta anos, cresceu na internet e agora só quer um canto para pensar em voz alta sobre cinema, cultura pop e a vida adulta. Sem ninguém tentando te vender um curso. Sem linguagem de influenciador. Apenas pessoas conversando de forma honesta, ligando os pontos de ideias que começam em um assunto e terminam em outro.

Co-host, Ryan Jiminez returns for another short, but pretty sweet show! Join us as we talk current movies, TV, video games, graphic novels and much more! Mixed and edited by: Wesley Swanson. For Bo Lueders.

Writer Ana Gavrilovska joins co-hosts V.V. Ganeshananthan and Whitney Terrell to talk about her recent article for Current Affairs, "Thomas Pynchon Saw American Fascism Coming." Gavrilovska reflects on Pynchon's long career and his interest in writing about systems, how his time as a technical writer at Boeing informs his work, his classic novels Gravity's Rainbow and The Crying of Lot 49, and his new novel, Shadow Ticket. She explains why Shadow Ticket's fictional Airmont family seems like stand-ins for the Trumps and considers the significance of a food-stuffed film that cheese mogul Bruno Airmont watches with his daughter Daphne as many ordinary people go hungry. The three also discuss Paul Thomas Anderson's Oscar-winning movie One Battle After Another, which takes inspiration from Pynchon's novel Vineland. Gavrilovska reads from Shadow Ticket.

Paul Thomas Anderson won his first Oscars this year and he went all in with Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Director and Best Picture. The two of us sat down and broke down what we thought of it and had a great time doing it. Hope you enjoy!

The 98th Academy Awards have now come and gone in a largely uncontentious ceremony. We discuss the final awards season showdown between Ryan Coogler's Sinners with its record-breaking nominations and Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another, along with this year's many deserved — and maybe a few undeserved — wins. We also run down some surprises in the telecast, its beautiful In Memoriam segment, and the Timothée Chalamet of it all.

Tyler and David discuss sewers in movies as well as Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Devil is up to his old tricks. This week, Jimmy and Larry are letting it rip on a little housekeeping as the Core 4 return return next week, a paper thin slubby tee making its maiden voyage as an emotional win, old rappers either head to Vegas and/or change their name, James missed having dinner with Zohran Mamdani by five minutes so we use this opportunity to text our contact on his team about celebrating his one year anniversary of coming on the pod (which clearly got him elected obviously), A24's television shows might just be better than their movies and we use the excellent Neighbors to air out some of our own close proximity beefs, Lawrence finally talks about The Oscars and justice for his goat Paul Thomas Anderson, did Hollywood hate on CGI when it first dropped, the spicy white boy renaissance is officially over as Timothée Chalamet headed home empty-handed and Jack Harlow's transplant syndrome got the better of him, exploring the emergence of Dinergoths and what they mean for society, say so long to the Metaverse as the gamble on VR fails, tech bros have appropriated taste in more ways than one, Buck Mason and a new theory on menswear manifest destiny we're working through in real time, Zara continues to try and convince the world it's real fashion by hiring John Galliano, who wears a fitted in the sauna and much more.

The Oscars are over, and we're breaking down everything from the biggest winners and biggest surprises to our personal Top 10 movies of 2025. In this episode, we recap the biggest moments from the 2026 Oscars, including Amy Madigan's surprise win for Weapons, Sean Penn taking home another Oscar for One Battle After Another, Michael B. Jordan winning Best Actor, and Paul Thomas Anderson dominating the night with Best Picture and Best Director. Before the awards talk, we also review the movies we watched over the weekend, including Undertone, Argo, Dracula (2025), and The Great Santini. Then we each reveal our Top 10 films of 2025, featuring titles like Bugonia, Frankenstein, Sinners, Bring Her Back, One Battle After Another, Chainsaw Man: The Movie, Rental Family, and more.

It's Critical Darlings' biggest morning! After a marathon season, we react to this year's Academy Awards: the winners, losers, presenters, performances, and awkward play-offs. One Battle After Another and Sinners nearly split the ballot with One Battle and Paul Thomas Anderson taking the biggest prizes in Best Director and Best Picture, while Sinners took home Best Actor, Score, Adapted Screenplay, and Cinematography. But for as many questions as the ceremony answered, it raised more: Do Sinners and Amy Madigan's wins signal a shift in how the Academy sees horror? What exactly is the Best Casting Oscar tracking? Are we now doomed to see Timmy eat a raw elk in an Iñárritu film? As part of this special episode, we also check in with Critical Darlings fashion correspondent Ben “The Other Ben” Hosley on this year's Oscars fashion, review the best popcorn buckets of the year with Vulture's Rebecca Alter, and reveal the future of Critical Darlings.  ✨Subscribe to our new feed in your podcast player of choice, and join us next week for Project Hail Mary!✨ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/critical-darlings/id1885681327Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/60n6Z9BUUMUR81CQoHbE8bPocket Casts: https://pca.st/1beh8dxuAmazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/a3598b5c-6f4a-4819-9457-44082cfea1fc/critical-darlings Sign up for Check Book, the Blank Check newsletter featuring even more “real nerdy shit” to feed your pop culture obsession.

Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 2 (3.16) The annual Swallows Day Parade is happening again in San Juan Capistrano on March 21! In studio we have the parade’s Fiesta Association president Jim Taylor and Michelle Erca to talk all things cowboy and swallowin’! Did you watch the Oscars or baseball last night? Mark Thompson did neither because he instead went to an industry memorial service. Timmy C recalls the time he had to make a similar Sophie’s Choice regarding a romantic date that took place during the World Series. Paul Thomas Anderson is the son of Tim Conway Sr’s best friend — and last night, he cleaned up at the Oscars.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Despite holding one of the most powerful microphones in the world, the silence from major winners at the Oscars regarding human rights and the rise of fascism was the real star.  When artists like Paul Thomas Anderson, whose film One Battle After Another swept the awards, refuse to use their power to address the very real injustices their films capitalize on, they "obey in advance." This silence is the symptom of massive corporate media consolidation. Director David Borenstein, winner of best documentary for Mr. Nobody Against Putin, used his power morally to remind us that this is how Putin cemented a dictatorship.  With the looming merger between Warner Bros. Discovery and the MAGA Ellison family's Paramount Skydance, we face a future where 40% of our media is controlled by a single far-right family. If you want to know what that might look like, see what Barri Weiss is doing to CBS.  See you at the Gaslit Nation Salon today at 4 PM ET.

After months of red carpets and awards season campaigns, it's all eyes on Hollywood's night of nights - the Academy Awards. It looks like it will be a fight between Ryan Coogler's thriller Sinners and Paul Thomas Anderson's adaptation One Battle After Another for most of the big prizes, with Jessie Buckley's performance in Hamnet the clear favourite for best actress. Lucy Hough speaks to the Guardian's film editor, Catherine Shoard – watch on YouTube. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/infocus

This is one of those “who knows what's going to happen” years at the Oscars. And maybe the biggest question of the night is which movie will dominate: “Sinners,” with its record 16 nominations, or “One Battle After Another,” which is right behind with 13. One is a vampire movie set in the Jim Crow South, featuring not one but two Michael B. Jordans. The other imagines a leftist revolutionary outfit led by Black women — Teyana Taylor! — facing off against a racist, sexist, authoritarian government. No matter what, we're talking about a pretty exciting night — including for many Black people. But you know how it is with race and the Oscars. It is never that simple. Because there are some people who are not rooting for Paul Thomas Anderson's version of Black feminist-driven revolution. And a lot of those people are Black feminists themselves. Including Wesley's dear friend, the scholar Daphne A. Brooks. After leaving the theater, she sent him a text calling it “a Black feminist 911 emergency.” So before the biggest awards of the industry are handed out, Wesley invites Daphne on the show to ask her, “What's the 911 situation here?” Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

What time is it? It's time to study the revolutionary texts with David “Rocketman” Sims! On our last episode before The Oscars, we're talking about One Battle After Another, Paul Thomas Anderson's epic about parental legacy, revolutionary identity, and a dad trying to charge his Goddamn phone. But first we reflect on the influx of last-minute Oscar narratives, before getting into One Battle After Another's plot and politics, sidebar on Leonardo DiCaprio's legacy at the Oscars, and finally give our official Critical Darlings Oscar Predictions for Sunday's ceremony.
