BONUS - Best Oscar Moments

First off, I would like to thank the Academy for this bonus episode of My New Thing! Today's episode is a little loose, but it's about one of Zach and Dan's lifelong obsessions: awards ceremonies. We talk about how to host, why the speeches matter, what bits we expect Ben Stiller to do this year, and, of course, what is going to win Best Documentary Short. We talked about a lot of very important television moments from the Oscars and beyond, so if you'd like to see more, here is an incomplete list: The Carson Tomahawk Throw Hugh Jackman's 2009 Opening Billy Crystal's 2000 Monologue Mickey Rooney Heckles Steve Martin The Streaker Max Headroom Incident Conan Halftime Joke (written by Skyler Higley) Ben Stiller and Hanks Bits Jon Stewart cuts his hand Chris Rock Interviews Regular People Denzel Washington Says Ease Is Worse Than Hardship Support the show by checking out our sponsors!
