![Oscars 2026: It’s Time For Our 9th Annual Fantasy Oscar Pool! [VIDEO]](https://thecontending.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/ChatGPT-Image-Aug-25-2025-at-07_57_49-PM.png)
We proudly present the 9th Annual Fantasy Oscar Pool, another one of our favorite podcasts of the year!
It’s a short podcast this week, but it’s one of our favorites and one where we really earn the Explicit rating (thanks largely to Joey). It’s our Fantasy Oscar Pool: the 9th Annual Edition (except for the year where we kind of forgot to do it)! We make our first round draft picks for the Fantasy Oscar race. Then, we’ll follow our selected performances and films throughout the 2026 Oscar season. We regroup for our second round drops and swaps shortly before the critics groups weigh in after Thanksgiving. We’ll be tabulating results on the website across the season!
We traditionally close with the Flash Forward to the media we’re most anticipating in the upcoming week, but honestly, it’s just Telluride.
We’re deeply appreciative for your shares, likes, and positive ratings on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
