Episode 24: For our very special Oscar's themed episode, Tom, Evan & Marcus go one fucking hour on one of the all-time classic award-sweepers, William Friedkin's influential vérité crime saga "The French Connection" (1971). Plus some additional bonus chatter on the 2022 Academy Awards shit-show and our thoughts on Paul Thomas Anderson's "Licorice Pizza" (2021).
