## Resource

For episode 282, I’m joined once again by my co-host Myles Hughes, with producer Steve Prusakowski working behind the scenes. The 98th Oscars are in the books, so we're recapping the winners, our thoughts, and more. I've been writing about it all week, including the path Paul Thomas Anderson and One Battle After Another took to win Best Picture ( here ), but this is our first conversation about how the Academy Awards went down. We also discuss Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (reviewed here ), as well as take your questions. It all adds up to a strong episode as we end another season of the podcast. Luckily, a new one begins next week... As always my friends and faithful listeners/readers, I do hope you all enjoy the latest episode of the Awards Radar Podcast, our 282nd one to date (here’s to many more). Of course, feel free to revisit the previous installments by clicking the Podcast tab ( here ) on the top of the page. Plus, listen to us on Apple Podcasts (iTunes), Spotify, and other platforms. More to come each and every single week, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you for listening!
