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.

This week we welcome to the pod the multi-talented Jordan Olds. Jordan is currently fronting the foreboding metal band Blood Vulture whose debut album, Die Close, came out last summer. Prior to that he struck YouTube gold as Gwarsenio Hall, the host of the twisted heavy metal themed talk show, Two Minutes to Late Night. Jordan introduces us to his dog Jinni, a 10 year old terrier mix whose notable bad breath never gets in the way of her making new human or canine friends. We get into Jinni's scraps with skunks, foster favorites and the surprising influence behind the title track Die Close. Jordan's shout outs went to the following three great organizations: Rescue Dogs Rock NYC who don't just save the easy dogs but focus on saving the more difficult, most urgent and critically injured. To date they've saved over 9,300 dogs. For more info on adopting, fostering, volunteering or other ways to contribute to their lifesaving efforts visit rescuedogsrocknyc.orgMuddy Paws Rescue whose mission is to build and support a thriving community of dog-loving humans dedicated to ending unnecessary euthanasia of companion dogs through shared learning and education, direct lifesaving, and continuous innovation. To adopt, foster, donate or get involved go to muddypawsrescue.orgYour local SPCA which includes Jordan's SPCA Westchester, one of the oldest humane societies in the Unites States today. SPCA Westchester serves more than 5,500 animals a year and is recognized as the largest No-Kill Rescue Center in the County. To adopt, foster, volunteer or utilize their other services go to spcawestchester.org or better yet visit their 27,000-square-foot Animal Rescue Center in Briarcliff Manor, NY.For more pics and clips of Jordan, Jinni and the 180 guests that came before them, follow the show on Instagram at Rockerdogcast

Circling silently above the earth on broad, black wings, vultures need little introduction. We know them as nature's clean-up crew, dining on dead and decaying animals. A unique range of adaptations allows vultures such as this Black Vulture to feast on food that's off limits for many other organisms. Vultures also appear to have a remarkable immune system. For them, and for many other organisms, one key to understanding their place in nature is understanding their relationship with other elements in their environment.

If you've ever wondered why you're attracted to villains... congratulations, you're about to get answers! Let's talk about why so many of us are absolutely unwell over Joan "The Freak" Ferguson from Wentworth, and why a villain this elegant, sever, and unnervingly captivating makes our empathy do backflips it has no business doing...while simultaneously awakening thoughts that require either a licensed therapist, a priest, or both working overtime.In this episode, I'm breaking down how beauty standards trick our brains into defending dangerous characters, how elegance softens evil, and why someone like Joan inspires fan edits, devotion, and comment sections full of people metaphorically (and sometimes literally) biting their lips, calling her "Daddy," and losing structural integrity in the knees.We're going from ancient physiognomy to the modern "hot villain industrial complex" to figure out why one sharply dressed, psychologically commanding woman makes entire fandoms whisper, "Okay... but destroy me!"If you've ever rooted for- or thirsted after - a villain you know belongs in therapy and not your fantasies, this deep dive is about to make everything make sense.Are.

Comedy Ratings, Kyle Kinane's Phish Weekend, and Colbert's Reported CBS TensionsJohnny Mac's Daily Comedy News recaps late-night jokes about the war, including Seth Meyers on Mar-a-Lago security and Stephen Colbert's “Epic Fury” anagram. He cites Deadline streaming numbers: Katt Williams' latest Netflix special drew 7.1M first-week views; Dave Chappelle's Sticks & Stones leads Netflix US debuts, while Shane Gillis' Live in Austin tops on YouTube; he also notes Amazon and Hulu special performance and how platforms count views differently.

Johnny Mac shares Sunday Comedy News highlights, noting his recent conversation with Pete Holmes and an upcoming “Comedy Survivor” episode. He recaps a Washington Post profile of Robby Hoffman, including her avoidance of TikTok, her move from accounting to writing on “The Chris Gethard Show,” her path to appearing on “Hacks,” and her involvement in “Rooster,” a Bill Lawrence HBO project starring Steve Carell and also featuring John C. McGinley. He covers major profiles of Chris Fleming (New York Times and Vulture), describing Fleming's densely layered, physical, bruising stage style and mentions an interview with Conan O'Brien. He summarizes Hannah Gadsby telling the Post they've stepped back from Netflix to take creative risks, promoting “Woof” as free online audio with a 20-minute animated sock-puppet video, and discussing fame, shifting audiences, and large venues. Additional items: Jeff Ross' “Take a Banana for the Ride” hits Netflix March 24; Hulu orders “Swap Meet,” an animated half-hour series by and starring Ralph Barbosa; and LA's “Puppet Up!

Fan fiction, where fans reimagine their favorite characters in new – often steamy – stories, is reshaping mainstream literature, television and film. This year alone, three novels spun from fan-written romances between Harry Potter characters have hit national bestseller lists. And on the popular fanfic site Archive of Our Own, you'll find everything from Star Wars-inspired romances to a zombie apocalypse featuring the Car Talk guys. We're tracing how communities of queer, female, and frequently thirsty fans became a force too big for publishers and Hollywood executives to ignore. Guests: E. Alex Jung, features writer, Vulture and New York Magazine Candice Lim, writer, producer and former co-host, Slate's ICYMI podcast Domee Shi, film director and creative vice president, Pixar; her films include "Turning Red," "Elio" and the animated short film "Bao" Disclaimer: Suicide and suicidal ideation comes up in conversation during this podcast episode.

Highbrow, Brilliant: The Adam Moss Approval Matrix — Adam Moss is probably painting today. He's not ready to share it. He may never be ready to share it. You see, this ASME Hall of Famer unabashedly labels himself as “tenth rate” with the brush. And he's okay with that. As Moss explains, it's not about the painting. After decades of creating some of the world's great magazines, he is throttling down. He's working with canvas, paint, and brush — and reveling in the thrill of making something, finally, for an audience of one.  It hasn't always been this way for Moss. Like most accomplished editors — like most serious creatives — Moss spent the better part of his career obsessed. Obsession is essential, he says, to the making of something great. Growing up on Long Island, Moss became obsessed with Esquire and New York magazines. “My parents were subscribers,” he says. “I was in the suburbs. I'd open them and it was my invitation to New York City. And to cosmopolitan life. And to sophistication.” And knowing that it was all happening just a short subway ride away made it irresistible. Moss's publishing portfolio is rotten with blue-blood brands: Rolling Stone, Esquire, The New York Times, and New York magazine. He's collaborated with editorial legends. In 1987 Moss decided to create something of his own. Invited to pitch an idea for a new magazine to the owners of The Village Voice, Moss did his song and dance. The folks in the boardroom were … unmoved. Afterwards, Moss retreated to the men's room to ponder his humiliation. Minutes later, Leonard Stern, the Voice's owner, took a spot at the next urinal, where he turned to Moss and said, “Okay, we'll do your magazine.” What Moss pitched was a city magazine called 7 Days. It only lasted two years. But two weeks after ceasing publication, 7 Days was presented the National Magazine Award for general excellence. The splash it created propelled Moss to The New York Times, where, in a few short years, he transformed the paper's Sunday supplement into an editorial magnet for creative talent, the Esquire or New York magazine of the 1990s. In 2004 Moss joined another venerable brand, New York magazine, where he not only completely reimagined the print magazine, he bear-hugged the encroaching internet menace, creating more than 20 new digital-only brands, five of which — Vulture, The Cut, Intelligencer, The Strategist, and Grub Street — remain heavyweights of modern online editorial. In 2019, Adam Moss ended his 15-year run at New York, saying, “I want to see what else I can do.” So … painting. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

We have been a fan of Jenn Lyon's since we first encountered her in the sketch world of New York City in the aughts. Then we saw her on Justified; then we saw her on Claws (which, if you haven't seen it, you must - it's like John Waters writing Breaking Bad), Dead Boy Detectives, and most recently, we've been singing the praises of Stumble, so we just had to have Jenn on the show. And boy howdy, what a delight it was to hang out with her! We talk about being the preacher's daughter, going from her friends' social secretary to following Phish around on tour, searching for your identity, ED rehab, and of course, the Latin declension of "farmer"!

We're headed into the sewers looking for love as we begin our new miniseries "This Whole Thing Smacks of Gender," in which we look at the romance of Hollywood's finest pronoun-based films - and we're kicking off with Andy Muschietti's blockbuster 2017 adaptation of (half of) Stephen King's IT! Join in as we discuss our own favorite King adaptations, Bill Skarsgard's performance as Pennywise the clown, the various versions of the movie that almost got made, and the film careers of Game of Thrones stars. Plus: How does this film compare to the 1990 TV version? What was Pennywise doing before humans arrived in America? What's going on with that one scene everyone (wisely) refuses to adapt? And what was up with all those clown sightings in 2016? Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe! Next week: Them!

It's the middle of award season, and Ryan Coogler's ode to the Black music canon Sinners has emerged as the Oscars frontrunner and the most nominated film in Academy Awards history. The love the movie has for the Delta blues is front and center, and begs the question: will the movie's legacy help bring the blues back into popular culture? There's already been a precedent for films reviving dead genres – think The Sting and its ragtime score, or O Brother Where Art Thou's relationship to bluegrass – and on this episode of Switched On Pop, Reanna and Nate talk with Vulture writer Fran Hoepfner about the times in which movie soundtracks have shifted the musical culture. Read Fran's piece on movie scoring, The Death of the Classic Film Score, here.

Much like guest Sarah Aziza's beautiful memoir, The Hollow Half, this week's show covers a lot of territory and shines light on multiple topics of interest to memoirists. We explore memoir as art—what that means and whether memoirists should strive for their work to be art per se. Aziza's book is experimental and ambitious, and as such gives this week's episode delves into craft choices and process and more. Aziza shares her family history and how her grandmother started to show up in her dreams—and how this memoir took root and ultimately became the gift it is—timely, urgent, and beautiful. Sarah Aziza is a Palestinian American writer, translator, and artist with roots in ‘Ibdis and Deir al-Balah, Gaza. She is the author of the genre-bending memoir The Hollow Half, winner of the Palestine Book Award and named a Most Anticipated and Best Book of the Year by Vulture, Vanity Fair, Literary Hub, Elle, Electric Literature, and Mizna, among others. Sarah's award-winning journalism, poetry, essays, and experimental nonfiction have appeared in The New Yorker, The Paris Review, and Best American Essays, among other publications. She is the recipient of fellowships and support from Fulbright, MacDowell, USA Artists, the Asian American Writers Workshop, and others. Sarah has lived and worked in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, South Africa, and Palestine, and now resides in the U.S. on occupied Munsee Lenape and Canarsie land.

In March of 2015, Denise Huskins was kidnapped, drugged, sexually assaulted, and held for 48 hours. When she was released, police called it a hoax and demanded that she apologize for wasting resources. The media dubbed it the "Gone Girl" case and death threats started flooding in. Except it wasn't a hoax at all. It was a Harvard-educated serial rapist named Matthew Muller who'd been terrorizing California for years. In this episode, we'll go through the kidnapping, the police misconduct that revictimized the survivors, Detective Misty Carausu's brilliant investigative work that finally caught Muller, and how Denise and Aaron turned trauma into national advocacy. From victims to suspects to survivors...their story changed how law enforcement handles sexual assault cases across America.For Survivors of Sexual Violence:- RAINN National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE (4673)- RAINN Online Chat:https://hotline.rainn.org/online- Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741- National Sexual Violence Resource Center:https://www.nsvrc.org/For Victims of Police Misconduct:- ACLU:https://www.aclu.org/- National Police Accountability Project:https://www.nlg-npap.org/- Innocence Project:https://innocenceproject.org/Mental Health Support:- National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 988- SAMHSA National Helpline: 1-800-662-4357- Psychology Today Therapist Finder:https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapistsSources:San Francisco Chronicle (Henry K.

This week we're brooding, Victorian style, with Vulture's Bilge Ebiri! Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is a Best Picture nominee and is well represented in the craft categories, but it has only one acting nomination, for Jacob Elordi's hulking monster. It's of a piece with past craft-heavy Oscar contenders like Dune or The Lord of the Rings, but does Frankenstein actually stand a chance? We discuss the film itself, its lavish sets and costumes, del Toro's choice to center the monster as the hero, and how that decision reshapes the monster's opposite, Victor, played by Oscar Isaac. We also touch on the new Wuthering Heights, also starring Jacob Elordi, the history of Wuthering Heights adaptations, the shameless state of celebrity Super Bowl ads, and finally atone for our past sins, as Bilge defends previous subjects Train Dreams and Hamnet against our critiques. As it turns out, we were the monster all along. Sign up for Check Book, the Blank Check newsletter featuring even more “real nerdy shit” to feed your pop culture obsession.
