The Best Best Pictures

And so we've reached 500 episodes! We started this podcast 10 years ago with the goal of analyzing the AFI's Top 100 Lists, so what better way for us to celebrate a landmark episode than to do...a list! And it's with a flourish as we post a king-sized chat about the greatest Best Picture Oscar winners. We each pulled 10 classic Oscar champions out of a box and did a brief review of them, telling you why they're worthy of enshrinement in Awesometown. Then we took exception to a handful of winners throughout the years that were inferior to something else that was nominated against it, but didn't win. This show about The Best Best Pictures is one of the best podcasts we've ever done, so get comfy and listen to us rave about those that won gold. Well, Actually: The Exorcist came out the day AFTER Christmas, not on Christmas Day itself the way The Sting did. Also, it should be noted that Jodie Foster DOES say in The Silence Of The Lambs that transgender people are typically very docile, not psychopathic killers.  If you like 20% discounts on great drinkables, then you'll be gunned about going to "sparkplug.coffee/hyes".
