Season 2, E3: Low Brow Takes on High Brow Culture: The Oscars Take Down with Danita Steinberg
We're back for our third full-length episode of S2! For our very first Low Brow Takes on High Brow Culture takedown episode, Ama and Ameema have invited on former co-host and fellow podcaster from the show We Really Like Her, Danita Steinberg to discuss all things Oscars 2022.
Between the three of us, we analyze everything that has to do with the Oscars 2022 show that we hope hasn't already been discussed to death already (cough, The Slap, cough) including:
How brand new producer Will Packer made the executive decision to present eight of the 23 awards before the live broadcast began and totally fumbled the bag
How diversity is still so lacking with The Oscars and what they could learn from independent awards shows
How influencers and content creators were invited to this year's Oscars to help appeal to a younger demographic
Why the Marvel Cinematic Universe has such a grip on cinema worldwide (no, but really)
In our first segment, Danita Steinberg walks us through her top 10 snubs of the 2022 Oscars and if anyone disagrees, we will fight you.
Making a case for why the Oscars are still relevant
Discussing the fashion and why we miss Joan Rivers
Finally, all three of us decide to award our own Oscars! Some of the awards include Celeb with the Most Audacity (here's looking at you, Judd Apatow!) and the Celeb Who Was the Most Wholesome (yep, it was obviously Youn Yuh-jung and Troy Kotsur!) but that's just the tip of the iceberg!
