Episode 420 – MarkWHO42 Goes to The Oscars
Transcript
Roll out the Red Carpet and prepare the spotlights—Hollywood’s biggest night is here. As the Crown Jewel of 2026 award season, the Oscar nominees spark debate and discussion everywhere from casino betting halls to countless American living rooms. In a year bursting with visionary direction, moving performances, and daring storytelling, the competition is tighter than ever. How does the Academy Award voting process truly work? We explore the idea that while there may be no outright “bad” movies, some undeniably shine brighter than others. Who earned unexpected nominations, and who was left shockingly snubbed? Will the Best Animated Feature race be dominated by major studio blockbusters like Zootopia 2 or KPop Demon Hunter? Will Sinners sweep the major awards with its already record‑setting number of nominations? And ultimately, what film will claim the top prize? For movie lovers watching from home, where can they stream this year’s nominees before the big night? Join Mark Baumgarten, Vicky Jakubowski, Juan Sanmiguel, and special guest Kim Farah as they break down the surprises, controversies, and biggest questions surrounding the 98th Academy Awards.
