Reel Connections

The Oscar nominations are out! Valencia joins the show as we unpack it and give our thoughts. Does KPop Demon Hunter win over box office hit Zootopia 2? Michael B. Jordan and Timothee Chalamet are head to head for lead actor or does someone else come up and take it? We have plenty to unpack and yet we somehow end up talking about Traitors.

His & Hers might be the first hit of 2026. The Netflix psychological thriller stars Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal. This is a nice whodunit story that ends in a what seems to be a polarizing twist. But before we get there, we talk about HBO's Euphoria season 3 trailer then get into Golden Globes.

Happy New Year! I am trying something different to see what you all think. I went to see Stranger Things Finale with friends at the movies, immediately after we started recording in the car. This is our raw, unfiltered reaction to how the Duffer Brothers wrap up the series.

Is that time of year where many of us are spending time with our families and looking for something to watch. This week, Joy joins me discussing new Christmas movies. We talk about Disney+'s 'A Very Jonas Brothers Christmas Movie,' 'Merv,' and 'My Secret Santa.'

It has been awhile. Do I remember how to podcast? I couldn't let the year go by without sharing my favorite watches of 2025. It's a tradition. It also reminded me why I enjoy doing this podcast. It's connection. But we are here to share our favorite watches of the year and you'll remember it doesn't have to be just stuff that came out this year but it has to be things we've watched for the first time.
