This is an I-Heart podcast.
Guaranteed Human.
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 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.
Who would you call if the unthinkable happened?
My sister was y'all 22 times.
A police officer, right?
But what do you do when the monster is the man in blue?
This dude is the devil.
He'll hurt you.
This is the story of a detective
who thought he was above the law
until we came together to take him down.
I said, you're going to see my face
to the day that you die.
I got you.
Listen to the girlfriends, Untouchable, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
I'm Stefan Curry, and this is Gentleman's Cut.
I think what makes Gentleman's Cut different is me being a part of developing the profile of this beautiful finished product.
With every sip, you get a little something different.
Visit Gentleman's Cut Bourbon.com or your nearest Total Wines or Bevmo.
This message is intended for audiences 21 and older.

I know he has a reputation, but it's going to catch up to him.
Gabe Ortiz is a cop.
His brother Larry, a mystery Gabe didn't want to solve until it was too late.
He was the head of this gang.
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's killed, game must untangle a dangerous past, one that could destroy everything he thought he knew.
Listen to the brothers Ortiz on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Hello, the internet, and welcome to the 2025 prestige casting nomination trends show.
Can we get like a little dramatic music under that?
Yeah, there we go.
I'm Jack O'Brien.
I'm thrilled to be joined, as always by my co-host.
Mr. Miles Gray.
And today, it's a very special trending episode.
We're not talking about the news.
We're giving out the nominations for prestige casting.
We, Miles and I enter this episode, not knowing the categories.
Those are, of course, determined and sprung on us by the inventor of the concept of prestige
casting.
Original super producer of this show, co-creator of the Daily Zekeist all the way back in the day,
now EP of shows like
Lost Cultries does and this is important
it's Anna Hosnia
Anna Hosnia!
Thank you
thank you so much for having me
all right should I just give a quick
rundown on how this is going to go
and let's get into it
because we're out of time
we're already out of time
Anna we're out of time
thank you so much for joining
where can they find you
so glad we got to do this together
okay real quick so I created
a 17 different categories
for Christie's casting
It will go quick, do not worry.
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.
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
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.
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.
Okay.
Okay.
She's always got good wind-swept hair, I feel like, yeah, some of the best.
She always, like, got that little curl coming down sometimes, you know, everything can be crazy.
Yeah.
Okay, love it.
Didn't watch that one, but I bet it's great.
I've seen the poster.
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.
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
maybe we'll figure out her name by the next episode infinity something
Okay.
Yeah.
Infinity Stone.
That's, I think, three great nominations.
All right.
Infinity Stone.
Yeah.
No, sorry.
That's from the Avengers Multiverse.
I'm sorry.
It's Chase Infinity.
Chase Infinity.
And I'm nominating her for her hair during a chase scene.
Chase Infinity.
That's her name.
That is her name.
Okay, great.
All right.
We're in.
Category 2.
That one hot guy, hell yeah.
Ooh.
And you know what I'm going to have to say?
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.
Maybe Maze Runner or one of those things.
Yeah, the Maze Runner.
Yeah.
Yeah, he was in the Maze Runner.
Honor, you're talking about the Maze Runner?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I think so.
The maze runner?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hot, that guy's hot.
I got line if you want.
If you want, a second to, um, Harris Dickinson and baby girl.
Ooh, did that come out this year?
I, I looked and it said 20, 25 next to, uh, the, the movie.
It might have been like an Oscar.
Harris Dickinson just eminently what, like, anything he's in.
He's always good.
Yep.
Oh, well, you clearly didn't seem an urchin anyway.
Go on.
Yeah, I don't know.
I just like, like, he.
He was in this show, like a murder, murder at the end of the world a couple years ago.
Right.
And obviously, he was in Triangle of Sadness.
And he's like the tempterous, tempter, a young intern, baby girl.
And his performances are like a brainworm.
Like, I don't know.
There's a, the brainworm performances of the year.
Everything Harris Dickinson's in can't get out of my head.
And, uh, and Sean Penn in one battle after another.
I couldn't get that performance out of my head.
Do you want to nominate Sean Penn as well?
For hot, for hottest guy?
Hell yeah.
I don't think, I don't think I can give him one, that one hot guy, hell yeah.
Okay.
Mine, uh, mine, uh,
his was not a brainworm that like, oh, God, he's so hot.
I can't get it out of my head.
Mine, I'm really taking, but the film informed my perception of my nomination,
but I'm going to nominate Paul Rudd as Austin Carmichael in friendship.
Yes.
Um, okay.
I was obsessed with him.
And spoiler alert, his follicular reveal of his hair situation.
made, I was like, that's a king right there.
That's a king.
Fulicularly challenged king.
And also, I do want to say you can, you can also nominate people in television shows as well.
Yeah, of course.
This is streaming.
You're a streaming queen as much as a film queen.
God, I'm trying to think of.
I just don't watch that much streaming.
Who did I like, that one, but I'm like, viscerally, that was the one that I just felt.
Yeah.
That one spoke to me, you know?
For sure.
For sure.
Can be hot.
All right.
Category three.
getting a new ruling the baby girl came out in 2024 uh so i'm going to change my nomination to uh josh o'connell and uh wake up dead man
o'connell o'connor i call him o'connell but uh that's that's and his best friend as we've seen in the text
josh o'connor in uh the new knives out interesting okay i got a thing for priests you know i grew up in the church
I don't know about saying that out loud
But don't ask
Don't ask let's leave that there
All right category three
Damn those are some big ass hands
Oh
All right
I want to go with Josh O'Connor
Wait what did you see
Wait so is this in the mastermind?
Yeah
Have you seen his hands
No
He got big ass hands
He's putting up his dukes and knives out as well
He's a boxer

I mean you can also
be multi-nominated
oh my god

damn

some big ass hands
that's category three
um okay

I will think go
I will nominate
um
let me figure out
Brian the editor has given us a good note
do you want to put
the smashing machine
the rock
like to also put it
oh yeah that's a good one
I think that's without
the rock
and the smashing machine
you're like
those titular
smashing machines.
Okay.
Yeah.
I mean, I've heard good things about The Rock acting in that movie, so I'm willing to give him
a nom.
I think I'm going to go with...
Are we sure that those hands aren't prostheses?
Are we sure that...
Like his face and his hair?
Could you imagine?
It's like everything everywhere all at once, like those hot dog hands.
It's like, hey, put my hand gloves on, man.
I think just based off of size, I'll say Omar Benson Miller, who played cornbread and
sinners.
He was working the door.
I was like, those are big sharecropper hands.
I'm going to probably say those are big ass hands.
Okay.
Hand casting.
He's a class.
Was he in a smart guy?
Yeah, he's been like, he's been up.
He's been in it for a minute.
I mean, like, and always because of his look, he can always, he does not age.
It's unbelievable.
No, I agree.
Um, okay, category four, a queen.
A queen.
I'm going to put Rose Byrne from, uh, if I had,
legs I'd kick you. It's my nomination.
I just watched that last night, and I have to say the, I was really taken, I was really
blown away by the directing, actually, Mary Bronstein's director was really fantastic.
She's amazing.
Yeah, she, that one, man, as like a new parent, there was just something about the way she
was embodying the stress of like a mysterious illness with a child, fucking your, like, just
everything about that performance, I was like, yeah, this is, this is, this is, this is,
This is a powerhouse moment.
I didn't get to see.
What was the Jennifer Lawrence one that you're saying?
That was also some powerhouse acting.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm going to go.
I'll go.
I'll go Roseburn, too.
I already,
okay, fine.
Okay.
Double nomination.
Is that possible?
No,
because that's basically a vote.
Okay, Jack, you do.
Jack, you do.
That's a co-sign for me.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
Tiana Taylor from one battle after another.
There you go.
Literally.
Okay.
Now I got...
Literally a queen.
The other one I'll do is
Wunmi Mosaku and Sinners.
Yeah.
Because also I was just like, thank God somebody's fucking figuring it out.
Right.
Like I just like, y'all, y'all, y'all, please.
Come on.
Let anyone in.
Huh?
Why?
She's like, thank you, wouldn't me.
But yeah, she played Annie and sinners.
Definitely queen shit from her.
Okay.
Do we have any nominees from any...
I'm also realizing.
fucking friendship didn't come out this
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.
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%.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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

I have two for this
First would be
Miles Katen
and Sinners
who played Sammy
When he first sings in Sinners
I said,
Who the fuck's voice is this?
I'm like,
there's no way
you have that fucking voice bro
It was so God
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

That's smoke stack is good.
That's also a costume.
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.
I think as a millennial, like,

Wow.
Is that crazy?
Yeah.
No wonder.
Yeah.

I don't know if there's a lot of,
category that I can shoehorn them into maybe a legend but uh put them in a legend yeah let's put
i would also put net we could put them in big ass hands because you know they got also the perfect
liev schreiber in the perfect couple also feels like he's playing himself the Nicole kidman

leev oh wait no that it fuck it premiered on september 5th 2024 and then it end bro i don't forget it

And again, I think Conor O'Malley is always Connor O'Malley in anything he's in.
So friendship is there.
And then, oh, and then Benicio also, as Sensei.
Part of me is like, is that just, is that just you?
Okay.
Do you drinking a few small beers while you drive?
He did for functional alcoholics what the dude did for potheads.
Like he just is, is life goals for the type of people who are like, yeah, I drink and drive.
What?
Why are you even asking that, you asshole?
Yeah, I would say those are some good, some good noms.
I did want to just like, the entire supporting cast of chair company made me ask that question.
Are they playing, like Mike, is that, is Mike playing himself?
Right, right, right, right.
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,
the guy works in the shirt store.
Oh, yeah.
That's my favorite performance of the year.
It's so surreal.
It's so surreal, but, like, I don't know.
It just feels unlike any other on-screen performance I saw this year.
Okay.
Next category, because we're running out of time.
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.
I mean, but is that just more, it's not more, it's not kind of like, oh, okay, but like, I didn't know you had it like that or because I think we knew. Okay, okay.
Austin Butler and girlfriend in Cotts stealing.
Austin Butler and Zoe Cravitz.
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?
Yeah, I get, I'm Austin.
Okay.
For me, okay body,
Sean Penn in one battle after another.
Okay.
He had such, like, fucked up, like, old dude taking, like, testosterone.
The walk is so crazy.
The walk is so crazy.
I'm like, bro, you're more so in how he was carrying his body.
I'm like, okay, body acting.
Go ahead.
Body, a, yeah.
Got that body out of yet.
I do want Nicole.
Okay, if we're allowing baby girl in, Nicole Kidman and Baby Girl.
I mean, I thought we weren't allowing Baby Girl in.
We're not allowing Baby Girl in, so I'm just saying that right now.
Sorry, Baby Girl, you're not allowed in.
Sorry, sorry.
Okay.
Also, that's inappropriate.
Why are you looking at that woman's body like that?
Just joking.
Sorry, I'm not old.
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.
Okay, body.
One of the great on-screen
horror movie deaths I've ever seen.
So I'd like to put them in, okay, body.
That got crushed in Final Destination bloodlines.
Yeah.
Okay, I'm just going to tell you that's not going to win.
All right.
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
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
I don't know you tell me
Sternberg the guy
oh my god why am I what's he in
in after the hunt
Stoolberg oh my god I can never say his name
Michael Stoberg
yeah that's him sorry he's so
good in
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Oh.
Pamela Anderson.
Pamela Anderson in Naked Gun.
Naked Gun. Yeah.
Yeah, that was definitely
I was like, I was like, yes, Pamela Anderson.
Because I love that documentary that came out a couple years ago.
Yeah.
Really like what gave me such new perspective on her that I'm rooting for her.
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.
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.
I did not realize how much I missed her until she was there,
just glorying in that accent.
Bro, and just killing it as like the mom off the Benzos.
I was like, okay, go ahead, go ahead.
Let it rip.
Yeah, let it rip.
You know, take a couple more Zanz.
Daniel Craig in a while
and I did enjoy his return and Knives Out.
Okay.
I liked having him back in my life.
Okay.
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,
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
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
he seems like perfectly fine
just being like with like a mall
and not doing anything every day.
So, go ahead.
Go ahead.
Final category.
Look, people need to recognize.
Okay.
I like,
Mike Barron Holtz in the studio.
I completely forgot about the fucking studio.
Well, I was going to give it to,
or I was going to also nominate
Anthony Mackey playing himself in the studio.
Because that fucking,
that episode is unreal.
Anxiety inducing.
him being like ha ha and then turn around being like you need to fix this this is fucked up
oh my god i fucking love it i love it the turn he makes it so funny that whole sequence where they're
all screaming at each other yeah yeah yeah yeah it's one of the funniest moments on that whole show
i would also give it to um stephen graham the father in adolescence oh my god come through brother
okay did you guys see adolescence no no i didn't see it oh the dad in that
one I just like I saw the poster with him crying and I was like that looks like it's going to come
through and make me cry for the first time of my way oh so you're going to show up and make me cry
as well and are you going to show and steal this scene right right right right wrote the show so
what I'm it was one of those um my nominee for this category is a subway sandwich
shops in friendship.
Hey,
hey,
you're back.
It was so good.
Sandwich shop.
This is so
angry.
We went to a subway.
That was the hardest.
I'll get some.
Yeah.
What kind of bread do you want that on?
Italian urban cheese?
I'm a right up.
Okay.
That was the hardest that my wife left at anything this year.
in a movie and then when we went out
to dinner with some friends the next night
and we started talking about it again
and she laughed so hard she threw her head back
and like hit a window
so shout out to that scene
yeah yeah I would also
I have a few more nominations for this
I would give it to Orlando Bloom
in the movie Deep Cover
I don't think anyone saw it but he's so funny
in that I watched like the first 20 minutes
was surprised he's like a failed actor who has to be like an undercover cop but he's like
trying so hard yeah every time he gets to do a monologue everyone's like is this guy talking so much
and then i would also give it to jenn law jennifer law and robert patinson in die my love i think
they do an incredible performance together all right so these are our nominees you guys now have
a couple weeks to watch all these films
