Zoe Nathan

And the Oscar goes to... Brady, Frankie, and special guest Zoe Nathan for this week's episode of Sore Thumbs (Director's Cut)! Today's episode is all about movies! Word of the day: movies! As usual, along with our own conversation with Zoe, we brought on some keynote speakers to talk Oscars, favorite movies, least favorite movies, opera, ballet, and more. We were so lucky to have on the show famous actor Timothee Chalamet, esteemed film critic and historian Roger Cockwell, and Chloe, Zoe's own cousin coming all the way in from Maryland. Oh, and a surprise visit from friend of the show Avril Lavigne! Give it a listen, it's a fun one.Originally recorded on March 26, 2026.WHO YOU HEAR (with Instagrams)Brady Reynolds: @bradyfreynoldsFrankie Mendez: @frankiedezZoe Nathan: @zoenmayaThe Sore Thumbs Variety Hour with Brady Reynolds and Frankie Mendez is a long-form improv comedy show between two friends and a rotation of special guests (Emerson friends, Boston-based comedians, musicians, etc.), staging ‘interviews’ between impromptu characters that meet and come to life in the booth, along with general off-the-cuff banter and musical performances. We want to cultivate for our listeners the feeling of being ‘in’ on an inside joke.Sore Thumbs is recorded live from Emerson College in Boston, MA and broadcast live on WECB FM every Thursday at 2pm!
