Pat & Jon on Their Best Behavior

The boys are still taking a break, but they got back in the saddle this week to talk the Oscars in the lead-up to this Sunday's ceremony. What two movies (one feel-good, one feel-bad) are duking it out for Best Picture? Which movie stands a chance of denying Pat and Jon's beloved "Licorice Pizza" a Best Original Screenplay win? Who's probably going to take home an acting award for a movie Pat has literally never heard of? Jon answers all the questions you're (not) asking, and Pat adds "Sam Elliott" to his list of terrible impressions.

No guests this week—just your co-hosts and some vibes! After announcing that this episode will be the last for a little bit while they put some prep in for next season, the boys talk Tom Brady's retirement/legacy (Pat brought it up, not Jon!) and whether "Euphoria" (or art in general) has as much power/influence as anyone seems to think it does. But for the most part, they discuss how and why our relationship to art/media has been fundamentally warped by, well... *gestures toward the entire world*. Enjoying the podcast?

Get ready for a crash course on one of the most beloved fan fiction subjects. No, it's not Patrick Stanny or Jon Lemay—it's pop icon Harry Styles! This week, the guys are joined by Lex Briscuso (writer at Paste and Slash Film, host of "Your Niche Is Dead") for a discussion of what draws so many people (including Lex) to Harry's music and aura—and, of course, we listen to some choice cuts from Harry's discography and influences. Also, Pat pitches an idea for a horror film to Lex (which you're not allowed to steal!) and Jon almost certainly says something to upset yet another fanbase.  Follow Lex on Twitter and Instagram (@nikonamerica on both), and be sure to find the rest of her writing/projects (including Your Niche Is Dead) at https://linktr.ee/nikonamerica  Enjoying the podcast?

The guys are joined by Adina Kruskal and Kara Powell of It's In My Queue to chat about 2005’s Sky High. After Pat and Jon pick Adina and Kara's brains on all things television, the gang talks Nicholas Braun’s hair, Pat learns what it means to "ship" someone, and we all yearn for a time before Marvel. (Hello, it’s Pat and I am writing this.)   Follow Adina (@adinaterrific) and Kara (@karaaa_powell) on Twitter, check out It's In My Queue wherever you get your podcasts, and be sure to subscribe to their Substack!   Enjoying the podcast?

The guys welcome back writer and music critic Matt Mitchell to talk about the life and films of the late great Peter Bogdanovich. After sharing NFL playoff predictions, the gang talks about Bogdanovich's incredible run in the early 70s from "The Last Picture Show" to "What's Up, Doc?" to "Paper Moon." Plus Pat breaks down a couple choice stills from the movies—so follow along on the pod's Instagram (@patandjonontheirbestbehavior) to see what they're talking about! "Why am I always apologizing to you?” Follow Matt on Twitter (matt_mitchell48) and check out his review for The Weeknd's new album up at Paste: https://www.pastemagazine.com/music/the-weeknd/dawn-fm-album-review/
