And then we have on-com mentions at the end for people who don't get nominated. And here's how it's going to go. I'm going to read a category.
Starting point is 00:03:37 And then I've asked Jack and Miles to basically, like, create a list of people they would nominate slash movies they've seen, whatever. Yeah. So each of us gets to nominate one or two people. That's right. Great. I'm going to let you nominate two if you really want to. And then in a coming episode during the break, we will. holiday. Yes. We will be a conclusion. We will be debating and picking our winners. I'd like to reserve
Starting point is 00:04:06 the right to bring up anybody I forgot to nominate, but Anna is in charge of all of this. So I turn it over to you. Surrender. Super producer, Anna Hosier. What is the first category of the 2025 prestige casting awards? Okay. Category one. Again, there is no rhyme or reason to any of this. This is just sort of how my brain works. Look, people listen to this show. They know there's no rhyme or reason to even what we say.
Starting point is 00:04:38 So no explanation needed. Category one, the best hair that looks wind-swept, but was clearly was styled perfectly. Who would you nominate? Oh. Do you want to give you some? Yeah, you need to kick us off. Yeah, yeah. I would say, let's say, Julia Roberts and after the hunt.

Starting point is 00:05:11 I've seen the poster. Sure, sure. Do you guys have a nomination? Wind swept, but can it be, like, messy? It can be literally anything you want. There are no rules. You can just say fucking shit. I would say Rose Byrne, and if I had legs, I would kick you.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Okay. Her hair is dishevelled. If I had legs, I would kick you. Let me. beautiful wonderful it still feels styled although the character is in the midst a chaotic event i was going to go with um the daughter in one battle after another at the end where she had she's out in the desert and she has to shoot the guy um and the hair keeps getting in her eyes but it still looks incredible amazing incredible nomination great pull thank you so much okay

Starting point is 00:06:30 Yeah. I'm going to go with, I'm, you know, Dylan O'Brien and Twinless. Oh. Dylan O'Brien and Twinless. Dylan O'Brien, we've seen, he was in like a franchise, right? Like he was the face of a franchise that never took off.

Starting point is 00:12:53 year. I had a bunch of friendship nominees. Well, yeah, we did put friendship. Oh, sorry. Look, we can look, let's let some stuff in. Friendship definitely came out this year. It says it's a 2020 It definitely came out. So it premiered. It premiered. Wide movies, 2025
Starting point is 00:13:09 in your face. Yeah. Cameered a TIF. Kate Mara. Also a queen in that. Yeah, Mara. Okay. Yeah. Just like quiet, quiet, subtle queen. But the movie doesn't work if she's just not like super convincing as like somebody who's like kind of shut down but also everyone's like god I love her you know yeah right all right wife is a queen all right
Starting point is 00:13:33 Kate Mara and friendship category five okay you cute oh okay okay so this is someone that grew on me yeah all right fine you're cute um no it's not fine you're cute it's okay okay okay you too. Okay. Because I'm going to nominate Robbie Hoffman in Hacks. Oh, okay. Robbie, little Robbie Hoff.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Oh. Hmm. I love L.A. Like, uh, like, uh, the lead in that whose name. Rachel Senate? Yeah, she's, she's cute in that. Um, Rachel Senate. Okay. And Rachel Senate.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Um, George Clooney's eyebrows. You can nominate George Clooney's eyebrows. That's fine. I feel like George Clooney's eyebrows are kind of cute. Like, they really are just bringing it in the movie Jay Kelly. Oh, you know. Okay. You know who grew on me this year is Ivy Wolk, who was in friendship.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Yes. And was also in, she was also working at the hotel. And if I had legs, I would kick you. There was something about, she got a beautiful unibrow. Oh, yeah. I think we need to put her in there. Okay, let's put her in. Let's put her in there.
Starting point is 00:14:52 I'm reserving George Clooney's brows. I'm reserving George Clooney's brows for another category. Is there an eyebrow category? Because I would put Ivy, we could put Ivy Wilkes. No, there's a real category. Okay. Ivy woke, by the way, all-time or episode of a Stradio Lab that everybody should go check out. She just came in and nobody was prepared for like what she was bringing.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Oh, shit. Okay. All right. So you don't want George Clooney's eyebrows and okay. Do we need it here? It doesn't make you. We can do whatever we want. There's no rules.
Starting point is 00:15:24 There's no rules, baby. You can also nominate it again. It doesn't matter. You can say Gargamel from Smurfs if you want. Yeah, you could. I could. If I wanted to. Category 6.
Starting point is 00:15:34 A legend. Give this one to Mark Ruffalo in anything. A legend. Wait. So I'm going to nominate Mark Ruffalo in task. Got it. You guys have any other Mark Ruffalo? And so is it important?
Starting point is 00:15:51 imply that it's got to be Mark Ruffalo. Not necessarily is just the title of the category. A legend. Mark. I mean, maybe this one would be better for George Clooney's eyebrows because they're like, really, they put it front and center. It's like, oh, yeah, this thing that's been there, our whole lives, you know, for, like, and so in the movie, they, like, keep having to touch them up with Sharpie.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Yeah. Which is, like, a fucking wild. But, like, somebody must actually do, like, that. must actually be how people do up their eyebrows in Hollywood is with Sharpie. I would also say Adam Sandler. He had a breakout. Sandler is really good in Jay Kelly. You know, every once in a while, he pops out of his little hole and does a serious role.
Starting point is 00:16:39 I know. It's the thing with comedians, man, they like eight times out of ten make really good dramatic actors. All the dramatic actors say comedy is ten times harder than dramatic acting. And I'm like, I mean, there's a lot of, there's a lot of, options here. You could go Benicio and one battle after another. That's mine. I'm definitely, yeah, Benicio is the sense say 100%.
Starting point is 00:16:59 That's a good legend. That's just like a straight up, like only Benicio, you know. All right, we have to keep moving. Yep. Category 7. If they're a Fed, then anyone could be a Fed, apparently. I'm going to say the entire cast of task. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:16 Least believe least believable fed. Is that that nomination going to them. I'm sorry. If they're a fed, then anyone can be a fed. That's a category. Yeah. You guys have any other, basically can be like anyone that you see in like a leadership role that you're like, I don't, maybe not, uh, the cop from weapons. He's kind of a fuck up. Um, you can find out his name later, the cop from weapons. Uh, I do just any of the people, I mean that these are very, these are, are, are probably the most believable authority figures of the year.
Starting point is 00:17:56 But the Christmas Adventures Club, I need them in some category. Okay. Like the people from like the guy who's like the hitman in the like golf shirt. Oh, right, right, right. Who's like the T1,000 of the movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It just looks like a fucking any ordinary fucking banker guy.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Uh, that guy, I think I got to put him in it. And if they're a fed, then anyone can be a fed. Yeah, for me, it'll be Liam D. Sin and Naked Gun. That's a good one. Yeah. Yeah. That's a great one.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Okay. Category 8. Why are you screaming? And you know that we got to give it to Connor O'Malley. Conner O'Malley in friendship. I'm going to say we got to give it to Tim Robinson in the chair company. So that's going to be a top category. And also Conor O'Malley doing the podcast that Mike listens to in the chair company.
Starting point is 00:18:58 I think those are three fantastic nominees. Did you see The Beast in me? No. The Claire Dane's movie. I'm always presuming Claire Dane's is going to have some kind of screaming in the film. So I would just, without seeing it, sight unseen, I'm like, you know Claire Dane's doing some kind of screaming. Okay. I thought you were just asking if we've seen the beasting you, which, brother, I have.
Starting point is 00:19:22 Let's take a quick break now. We're halfway through the categories. We'll be right back. Hey, everybody. It's Chuck and Josh from the Stuff You Should Know podcast, and it's that time of year again when we knuckle down to do our annual holiday episodes. We collected our best past classic holiday episodes and compiled them into a 12 days of Christmas toys playlist that the last.
Starting point is 00:19:45 whole family can enjoy. That's right. Maybe you missed it the first time we detailed the history of Beanie Babies, Monopoly, or Yo-Yo's, and a whole lot more. So listen to the 12 Days of Christmas Toys playlist on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, I'm Nora Jones, and I love playing music with people so much that my podcast called Playing Along is back. I sit down with musicians from all musical styles to play songs together in an intimate setting. Every episode's a little different, but it all involves music and conversation with some of my favorite musicians. Over the past two seasons, I've had special guests like Dave Grohl, Leveh, Mavis Staples,
Starting point is 00:20:22 Remy Wolf, Jeff Tweedy, really too many to name. And this season, I've sat down with Black Pumas, Alessia Kara, Sarah McLaughlin, and more. Check out my new episode with John Legend. I feel like in a lot of ways our careers are paralleled in some ways, but they just never intersected for some reason. I know. We don't know which way you go. Listen to Nora Jones is playing along on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:21:01 Who would you call if the unthinkable happened? I just fell and started screaming. If you lost someone you loved in the most horrific way. I said through you shot 22 times. The police, right? But what if the person you're supposed to go to for help is the one you're the most afraid of? This dude is the devil.
Starting point is 00:21:22 He's a snake. He'll hurt you. I got you. I got you. I got you. I got you. And this is The Girlfriends. Untouchable. Detective Roger Golubski spent decades intimidating and sexually abusing black women across Kansas City, using his police badge to scare them into silence.
Starting point is 00:21:42 This is the story of a detective who seemed above the law until we came together to take him down. I told Roger Galuski, I said, you're going to see my face till the day that you die. Listen to the girlfriends, untouchable, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Dad had the strong belief that the devil was attacking us.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Two brothers, one devout household, two radically different paths. Gabe Ortiz became one of the highest-ranking law enforcement officers in Texas. 32 years, total law enforcement experience. But his brother Larry, he stayed behind and built an entirely different legacy. He was the head of this gang, and nobody was going to tell him what to do. You're going to push that line for the cause. Took us under his wing and showed us the game, as they call it. When Larry is murdered, Gabe is forced to confront the past he tried.
Starting point is 00:22:41 tried to leave behind and uncover secrets he never saw coming. My dad had a whole other life that we never knew about. Like, my mom started screaming my dad's name, and I just heard one gunshot. The Brothers Ortiz is a gripping true story about faith, family, and how two lives can drift so far apart and collide in the most devastating way. Listen to the Brothers Ortiz on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. and we're back we're back category number nine we just came off of a very strong why are you screaming category well what's coming in number nine category nine um did not know you could sing

Starting point is 00:24:08 the timbre of his voice is unbelievable Obviously, I mean, he is a musician, so I'm not like surprised, but that voice really struck me immediately. That music scene, I just got to say, I got to stop down and say that is the moment, the best moment of cinema this year is the music scene when like Wednesday award for saving movie theaters, like, and not in a way that required James Cameron to like burn down forests for 17 years to process each cell of the film. He was just like, let's see what we can do with the. fact that people are in a box with really good sound systems and right it just sounds so fucking good gave me chills yeah that's my one of the year for me the second one is actually an ensemble nomination and it's the the fellas group in friendship when they sing

Starting point is 00:25:40 I mean. Those are the ones that really jump out to me. K-pop Demon Hunters. K-pop Demon Hunters would be the other one that's missing so far and was just a massive phenomenon this year. I don't know if it's millennial men or boys necessarily, but it could be, and it should be.

Are they playing, like Mike, is that, is Mike playing himself? Right, right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:30:24 Those are people off the street that walked in. Yeah, right, exactly. And then we're on a TV show all of a sudden. Yeah. Yeah. I'd like to give it to that. that whole cast. Like, the guy who knows someone who's at his limit,

Starting point is 00:30:53 Next category is, okay, body. Okay, body. And we've got to give it to Michael B. Jordan and sinners, both of them. Yeah. Michaels B. Jordan.

Austin Butler and girlfriend in Cotts stealing. Austin Butler and Zoe Cravitz.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Is that Zoe Cravitz? Yes. What do you mean? I was really transported by that film. I was like, these aren't actors. That's Lisa Bonnet. That's her mom. I would say, uh, okay, did you pick one or no?

Starting point is 00:32:21 I'm not going to be Jordan, and Michael Pete Jordan, that I'm like, whoa, Jack, have some respect. Also, the person who gets crushed in the trash truck in Final Destination's bloodlines. I'm sorry. Who is that? It's one of the worst things I saw happen to a body. Oh, God. Yeah. Okay.

Starting point is 00:32:59 category 14 oh you're just going to show up and make me cry i'm going to give it to brend fraser and rental family oh oh shit let's see what else would i give it to did i'm trying to think of what it's someone's performance right because there are moments just broadly where i was like oh this is i will say when michael b jordan gets bit and then it's turning. I've never felt more saddened by someone getting bit by a vampire in my life watching it like for that genre film. And he was just like guiding his brother to the other side. I was like, okay, yeah, yep. Even though this is just a vampire movie, I'm like, I've felt that. I felt that. Yes, sinners is a good one. I'm also going to say Walter Goggins at the end of
Starting point is 00:33:53 White Lotus. Walton Goggins. Okay. Walton Goggins. When, uh, what's her name? gets caught up yeah yeah yeah yeah oh yeah white lotus was this year um yeah that that was a good moment from not my favorite final episode but yeah let's do it uh anything else i think we got our three um i actually don't cry i don't know how to um yeah yeah i don't cry and i don't fart um okay category 15 i bet they regret casting you because you just stole this scene and I'm going to give it to Michael what's his name Sternberg

Starting point is 00:34:51 in one or in after the hunt and he is barely in it But every scene he's in, you're like, this movie should be about him. I think for that, I would pick more as, it's more of a shocker for me, was Bad Bunny and Happy Gilmore, too. Okay, I was going to nominate that. Literally, that was one of my nominations. I was like, you, bro, you're fucking killing it. Actually, I'm, credit to you. Credit to you, bad bunny.
Starting point is 00:35:19 It's also pretty good in, uh, caught stealing. Yes, he isn't. Oh, was he going to get him for both? We should. He's pretty good at Cotsling. I want to give this is where I want to. This is where I want to give Leave and Donofrio.
Starting point is 00:35:33 Yeah, I think they just like are so good. They're like, you end up just being like, I want these guys to win even though they're like fucking Kaiser Soze. You just like them so much. Okay. Yeah, they are, they're so sweet with their buppy. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Okay. I would also give it to Harris Dickison in Urchin. because he comes through. A movie that he directed. I know. He's going to regret casting himself. He's like, fuck, I'm too good.
Starting point is 00:36:05 He was really good in it. Yeah, that makes sense. He's, yeah, he's impossible not to watch. He's so good. Okay. Next category, category 16 is, I haven't been the same since you left my life. And now you're back and cooking and I feel whole again.

I didn't watch that documentary and it was the first time that I had like seen her since the 90s. And I was like, oh, yes. I remember her. I also give it to Keanu and Good Fortune. Okay. Oh. Yeah, he's been out.
Starting point is 00:36:54 He's been out for a little while. I would give it also to Parker Posey and White Lotus. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely Parker Pose. Yes, that is a great nomination.

Starting point is 00:37:34 Daniel Craig and Knives Out. Okay, anyone else? Daniel Creek? I mean, Clooney, I would say, I hadn't seen him in a while. Cluny and Jay Kelly. Clooney giving a performance that is like,
Starting point is 00:37:48 this is both autobiographical and humiliating. and like it's fucking rules I loved it I know the fact that he had to create a storyline where he had children that like don't fuck with him and then he's like doesn't even know I'm like I know
Starting point is 00:38:06 that was the other part when I was wise I'm like damn what what's his relationship to parenthood I'm really curious just like personally yeah right that's the saddest part he's like damn I need something right he seemed like in every interview he has
