Oscars Recap & Best Actor Brackets

The fellas just barely got this episode out at the end of March, keeping their promise of one episode a month this year alive. And ironically, they're doing an episode about something that happened several weeks ago. Sonny and Tom do a deep dive into the weirdest moments of the most recent Academy Awards, which saw Oppenheimer sweep, Killers of the Flower Moon get shut out, and Emma Stone enter a new conversation as one of the GOATs of her time. Not to mention Oscar award presentations by Al Pacino and our good old pal Arnold Schwarzenegger.Then the boys try out two mini brackets of 8 entries, one with the last 8 Best Actor Oscar winners and one with the last 8 Best Actress Oscar winners. The brackets ask the boys to ponder who would win in a fight between the two characters that the actors were playing. Some of the matchups are a bit obvious, such as J. Robert Oppenheimer facing off against the most morbidly obese man to ever grace the screen. But other matchups really make you think, like Will Smith's Richard Williams facing off against Casey Affleck's incredibly depressed day laborer in "Manchester by the Sea." Intrigued yet? Yeah, we wouldn't be either. But it's a fun time.And of course, the opening segment is not to be forgotten. Your hosts discuss if Arnold Schwarzenegger would win an Oscar playing George C. Scott's titular role in "Patton," a role for which Scott refused to accept the Academy Award because he rejected award ceremonies as a concept. So the boys spend most of the time roasting George C. Scott for that pointless protest before actually imagining Arnold in the role. It wouldn't be his best shot, but it's not impossible!Hosted by Sonny de Nocker (@swankysonny) and Tom Price (@thomas_price22).Theme by Josh Britt (jbrittmusic.com)Instagram: AnOscarForArnoldTwitter: @AnOscar4ArnoldTikTok: AnOscarForArnoldContact: [email protected]
