The Time Pals wrap up their retrospective on the early 2000’s Best Picture winners and should-have-won-ers with special guest “Hollywood Fringe Legend” Veronica Matthews. The fight to correct past Academy mistakes continues! Sould Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby be acknowledged for its comedic impact or is Jon Powell so woefully wrong? Where the eff is The Last King of Scotland or The Dark Knight? And how the heck did Nickell end up with twenty nominees?
