Podcast: ‘Gladiator II,’ Paul Mescal, and the Evolving Oscar Race

We’ve all seen Gladiator II and have definite opinions on some hot topics, including Denzel Washington, flooding the Colloseum, Paul Mescal, and properly channeling rage. We break down our feelings on Ridley Scott’s latest film and try to figure out where it stands within the Oscar race after good box office but middling critic and audience reviews.

Then, it’s time for some trades in our Fantasy Oscar Pool, and trades we make! Plus, Clarence makes a very unusual request…

We close our podcast, as always, with the Flash Forward to the media we’re most anticipating in the upcoming week.

We’re deeply appreciative for your shares, likes, and positive ratings on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
