## Resource

Welcome to the Actor's Guide to the End of the World Podcast, episode 71! The Oscar race just flipped, and now Michael B. Jordan is now the favorite to beat Timothée Chalamet for Best Actor. Was it Michael B. Jordan's win at the SAG Actor Awards or Chalamet's comments about ballet and opera? Both? We break down what he said, why it matters to Oscar voters, and the surprising family connection that makes it even more interesting. E-Kan and Rían got the full betting odds breakdown across every major category, and our picks for who wins and who should win. You will also hear gems like the inside story of how Ryan Coogler and his casting director hunted down Miles Caton, a high school kid touring the country as a musician — and turned him into the heart of Sinners. A lesson in the power of casting, and the guys talk about the very first Casting Oscars this year. Plus — the tip Chalamet learned from LeBron James about how to perform at the highest level. Jessie Buckley is running away with Best Actress, but plenty of drama in the other categories, like Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress is a 3-way war, and Best Picture is Paul Thomas Anderons's to lose.
