Summary

Amy Adams got her sixth and (to date) last Oscar nomination for her role as second lady Lynne Cheney, wife to Christian Bale's Dick Cheney in the 2018 biopic Vice. We're joined by writer and Podcast Like It's the 2000s co-host Emily St. James to talk about Amy doing Shakespeare by way of Adam McKay, and how this movie's smug condescension turned off audiences. Plus: fascists who love the musical Cats, a giant tap-dancing pig, and Timothée Chalamet playing Stephen Miller.
