Oscars Babyyy: Triangle of Tàr (Tàr & Triangle of Sadness)

Do awards technically mean anything? NOHR! Do we still love Oscars season? YEH! We picked four Best Picture nominees that we loved and we are diggin' in, babyyy. First, sink into Tàr, Todd Field's latest masterpiece and one of our absolute favorite films of the year. Then, we step into the Triangle of Sadness, an unbelievably fresh dark comedy that mocks the very people who invested their money into the film. Eat the rich, am I right?

Brendan is God, Never a Monster AKA "Gods and Monsters"

We are back with our second episode in our month of Brendan Fraser and this week we're jumping into the 1998 Oscar-winning Gods and Monsters. We have a lot of feelings about this film, but the takeaway is that Brendan is a BABE and he is a severely underrate actor. Raise your hand if you're stoked for the #Brenaissance!

Florence Pugh Saves Hollywood aka Fighting with my Family

Call 911, because this episode is on FIRE!! Jk it’s just one of the ten fires that Brad Pitt starts in this movie, the second film in our incredibly spooky Halloween vampire series.

"Bram Stoker's Dracula" aka Horny Bat Time

First up on the Best Boys Halloween Vampyr Series is Bram Stoker's Dracula--aka a really horny movie about a really horny bat. Jk, it's technically a 1992 masterpiece from Francis Ford Coppola about Count Dracula (Gary Oldman), a 15th-century prince, condemned to live off the blood of the living for eternity. Fast forward to the 1890s, where young lawyer Jonathan Harker (Keanu Reeves) is sent to Dracula's castle to finalize a land deal, but when the Count sees a photo of Harker's fiancée, Mina (Winona Ryder), the spitting image of Dracula's dead wife Elisabetta, he imprisons Harker and sets off for London to track Mina down. It's camp, it's horror, it's art, it's literally a perfect movie and no, we will not be taking questions at this time. THANK YOU AND HAPPY SPOOKTOBER.

Nicole Kidman: Nicoooole, I’m hoooome aka “Being the Ricardos”

Aaron Sorkin directing? Gross. Nicole Kidman playing comedic genius and overall badass Lucille Ball? Yes please. While our feelings on this performance are mixed, Nicole breathes life into parts of Lucy that were rarely seen by the public and does it flawlessly. In this 2021 film written and directed by Aaron Sorkin, Nicole plays Lucille Ball as she experiences personal and professional hurdles that jeopardize her career and her marriage.

Nicole Kidman: If You Knohr, You Knohr aka "The Hours"

We've said it once and we will say it again...Nicole Kidman's performance in The Hours (2002) is the best of her career. Poignant and masterful and, my god, does she look good in that prosthetic nose--she stands out in a trio of some of the most powerful actresses of our time. Nicole takes on the role of Virginia Woolf as she writes her famous novel Mrs. Dalloway in 1923. Her story crosses space and time to connect with the lives of Laura Brown in 1951 and Clarissa Vaughn in 2001, two women dealing with life, love, and the difficulty of all that comes with the hours.

Nicole Kidman: Ohr Nohr It's Ghohrsts aka "The Others"

There's a MAJOR twist in this film and it's not just Nicole Kidman's Grade A horror movie acting. "The Others" is an exemplary ghost story about a deeply religious mother trying to protect her children while questioning her reality. The perfect amuse bouche to spooky season.

Amy Adams: Princess of Passion (Junebug, American Hustle, Arrival)

This week, Monica and Jessica do a deep dive into Hollywood's favorite ingenue--the Princess of Passion, Amy Adams. Before she gained worldwide recognition as a Disney princess, Amy won the hearts of critics with her Oscar nominated performance in Junebug. She proved her dramatic range in films like American Hustle, and then drew on all of her talents to move audiences with her role in Arrival. She is one of the most versatile and entrancing actresses of her generation and we are stoked to call her a Daddy.

Benedict Cucumbatch: Vitamins, Minerals, Very High Number (Sherlock, The Imitation Game, The Power of the Dog)

The nutritious and delicious daddy of the day is none other than Benedict Cucumbatch....I mean, Cumberbatch. No matter which way you say his name, Daddy Benny is a legend and this week we unpack just why he's so damn good. He stole our hearts in Sherlock, ripped them out in The Imitation Game, and chopped them into tiny pieces in The Power of the Dog. His intimidatingly thoughtful performances continue to wow us and keep us coming back for more.

Kirsten Dunst is Just Getting Started (Bring It on, Marie Antoinette, Melancholia)

A lot of people fail to realize the talent of Kirsten Dunst and we think that’s a crime. This week, we dive into Daddy Dunst, a Daddy who has been wowing us for thirty years and doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon. She flexed her truly underappreciated comedy chops in the iconic Bring It On, portrayed the beautiful yet heartbreaking life of a monarch in Marie Antoinette, and stunned audiences with her depiction of depression in the jarring Melancholia. She’s an absolute force and we are so excited to see her career explode (in the good way).

Bradley Cooper: Brad Is Dad (The Hangover, Silver Linings Playbook, Nightmare Alley)

Did you think Bradley Cooper was just a pretty, bilingual face? Us, too. Listen in as we, Monica and Jessica, dig into a Daddy that many people (including us) continue to underestimate–Bradley Cooper. Dad Brad really started to gain recognition after he flexed his comedic chops in the unforgettable classic The Hangover, he proved his capability for emotional range in Silver Linings Playbook, and he took on a fantastical feat as the leading man in Nightmare Alley. Bradley Cooper continues to prove himself over and over again…and we think people should finally listen.

Whether It’s DenzL or DenZELLE, Denzel Washington is a Badass (Malcolm X, Training Day, The Tragedy of Macbeth)

Monica and Jessica make a triumphant return with one of the greatest actors ever known, the titan of cinema that is Denzel Washington. Denzel cemented his place in Hollywood history early on in Malcolm X, blew audiences away in Training Day, and finally got to show off his Shakespeare chops in The Tragedy of Macbeth. He is an actor who transcends to a spiritual plane when he opens his mouth and we are so happy to declare him a Daddy.

Paul Thomas Anderson: The King of the Valley (Boogie Nights, There Will Be Blood, Licorice Pizza)

The Valley is proud of two things: adult entertainment and Paul Thomas Anderson. Daddy PTA literally burst onto the scene with his triumph of a second film, Boogie Nights, then flipped the script on audiences everywhere with the dark and awe-inspiring There Will Be Blood. He again paid homage to his beloved San Fernando Valley upbringing with the newly released masterpiece Licorice Pizza. It’s clear why this auteur is as widely respected as he is–he’s one of those Daddies that just makes you love cinema.

Joaquin has been in the industry since childhood, but he has cemented his place in Hollywood as a Top Daddy by fully transforming in Walk the Line, pushing us to question humanity in Her, and stealing our hearts in his most relaxed role to date in C’mon C’mon.

Tom Hanks and His Many Maritime Disasters (Splash, Cast Away, Captain Phillips)

This week, Jessica and Monica take on a Daddy that truly needs no introduction. Tom Hanks has been regarded as arguably the best actor of all time for decades, so it’s no surprise that he’s become an icon of cinema. He made a name for himself as a leading man of rom-coms in Splash, broke our hearts but kept us captivated in Cast Away, and told a touching yet nail-biting story of survival in Captain Phillips. He has become America’s Dad and we can’t wait to see what he does next.

Christian Bale: The Master of Control (American Psycho, The Prestige, Vice)

He stunned audiences with the psychological thriller/black comedy that is American Psycho, overcame the larger than life story in The Prestige, and completely transformed himself to play the terrifying Dick Cheney in Vice. He is one of the most talented actors of our time and his dedication to the craft is borderline insane--let’s hear it for Daddy Christian Bale.

Angie carved her place in Hollywood after her Oscar-winning performance in Girl, Interrupted, she gave one of the most dimensional depictions of grief in Changeling, and she embraced a truly unique character in Maleficent. She is a force that is so much more than the her gorgeous exterior and she continues to delight us at every turn

Daddy Oscar became a household name after his starring role in the Coen Brothers’ Inside Llewyn Davis, he flipped crime film archetypes on their heads in A Most Violent Year, and he redefined the mad scientist as the morally ambiguous genius in Ex Machina.

Daddy Cate rose to fame with the titular role in 1998’s Elizabeth, she captivated audiences despite her morally deplorable character in Notes on a Scandal, and she dazzled in her maturity as a seasoned actor in Carol. She’s considered one of the finest actors of her generation for a reason--we bow down to Daddy Cate Blanchett.

She won her Oscar for playing outspoken activist Tessa Quale in The Constant Gardener, made us all rethink the importance we place upon romance in The Lobster, and stole our hearts as the scheming yet emotional Lady Sarah in The Favourite. She is an underutilized force in Hollywood and we can’t wait to see what she does next.

M. Night Shyamalan is a Horror Hottie (The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs)

Description This week, Monica and Jessica take on the king of the twist ending, M. Night Shyamalan. Daddy M. literally stunned audiences early on with The Sixth Sense, made a unique take on a superhero origin story with Unbreakable, and somehow made those CGI aliens look decent in Signs. While his films are far from perfect, his unique point of view and endless pursuit of surprising audiences makes him a true Daddy.

This week we chat about Lord Gwyneth’s scheming beginnings in Emma, her radiant Oscar-winning performance in Shakespeare in Love, and her dark turn to emotional manipulation in Two Lovers. She’s a wild yet fascinating woman that we can’t get enough of and is undeniably a Daddy.

Steve Carell: General Manager (Little Miss Sunshine, Foxcatcher, The Big Short)

Monica and Jessica are here to tell you that Steve Carell is so much more than his comedic roles. He made his true dramatic debut and stole our hearts in Little Miss Sunshine, totally transformed into the deeply disturbed John du Pont in Foxcatcher, and served as our moral compass in a tale about greed in The Big Short. He’s a Daddy who can do it all and we can’t wait to see what else can come from our boy Steve.

Quentin Quarantino (Reservoir Dogs, Jackie Brown, Inglourious Basterds)

Film bros love him almost as much as he loves feet--it’s Quentin Tarantino! Daddy Quentin got an iconic start with Reservoir Dogs AKA one of the best heist films of all time, made his questionable yet incredible tribute to Blaxploitation films with Jackie Brown, and turned the tables on history with the fan fave Inglourious Basterds. Some people say he does too much, but we say that what he does, he does incredibly. Give it up for Daddy Quentin Tarantino!

Just For The Bill of It: Bill Murray! (Groundhog Day, Lost in Translation, On the Rocks)

Monica and Jessica are here to tell you that Bill Murray can act, dammit! Our master of deadpan comedy flawlessly toed the line between humor and heart in Groundhog Day, flexed his dramatic chops in the dreamy masterpiece that is Lost in Translation, and showed a seldom seen paternal side in On the Rocks. There’s a reason he’s one of the most widely respected comedic actors of our time, which undeniably makes him a Daddy.

Tom Cruisin' for a Bruisin' (Risky Business, Jerry Maguire, Mission: Impossible III)

Is there anything quite as magical as the smile of Daddy Tom Cruise? We think not! Tom slid into our hearts in the iconic teen sex dramedy Risky Business, he had us at ‘hello’ (lol) in Jerry Maguire, and he did all of his own stunts in Mission: Impossible III, which is honestly his most impressive achievement. He is one of the last Hollywood superstars and, despite his wild religious beliefs, we can’t get enough of him.

The Keanaissance! (Monica Swears There is One): Keanu Reeves (Point Break, The Matrix, A Scanner Darkly)

Join Monica and Jessica as they discuss their love for Hollywood’s favorite “do nothing” Daddy, Keanu Reeves! Keanu got his big break in action films in Point Break, cemented his place in film history in The Matrix, and used his signature stoic acting style to its true advantage in the entirely rotoscoped A Scanner Darkly. He is an action hero, a beloved meme, and one of the sweetest guys in the biz. Let’s hear it for Daddy Keanu Reeves!

The Fabled & Mysterious Coppola (…it’s Nicolas Cage) (Vampire's Kiss, Leaving Las Vegas, Mandy)

Jessica and Monica examine one of Hollywood’s greatest eccentrics this week--Nicolas Cage! Daddy Cage expertly toed the line between absurdity and genius in Vampire’s Kiss, showed audiences the relationship between compassion and despair in Leaving Las Vegas, and did some Oscar-worthy scream acting in the indescribable Mandy. His mega-acting has established him as one of the greatest performers of his time and, in classic Daddy fashion, there seems to be no end to Daddy Cage doing things his own way.

Alright, Alright, Alright, It’s Matthew McConaughey (How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Dallas Buyers Club, Interstellar)

Daddy Matthew McConaughey is a man who needs little introduction, but listen in as Monica and Jessica go through his many career phases. He wowed as the romantic lead in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, ripped our hearts out in Dallas Buyers Club, and truly broke everyone’s brain in the insane Interstellar. The man is dripping in Daddy energy and has been since day one.

A Year of Jon Favreau! (Love & Sex, Made, Chef)

It’s episode 52, which means it’s been one whole year of Favreau! Monica and Jessica celebrate a year of Daddies in this episode about the patron saint of the pod--the one and only Jon Favreau. Jon surprised as a romantic lead in Love & Sex, he showed us all his filmmaking potential and made his directorial debut with Made, and once again, he surprised and delighted with the endlessly classic Chef. There’s nobody else in Hollywood like Jon Favreau--the Ultimate King Daddy.

Baz: Australian National Treasure (Strictly Ballroom, Romeo + Juliet, Australia)

If Nicole Kidman is the mother of Australia, then surely Baz Luhrmann is the father, right? Monica and Jessica think YES. This week they cover Daddy Baz’s campy beginnings with Strictly Ballroom, his liberal yet stunning take on Shakespeare with Romeo + Juliet, and his (far too long) love letter to his homeland with Australia. Say what you want about Baz, but the man is a modern auteur and the epitome of the word “extra” and that’s why he’s an Aussie Daddy.

Ohr Nohr, It’s Nicole Kidman! (Eyes Wide Shut, The Hours, Lion)

Ohr nohr, it’s the episode everyone’s been waiting for! Monica and Jessica finally get into everyone’s favorite Aussie, Nicole Kidman! Daddy Nicole made us all question our relationships in Eyes Wide Shut, literally stunned us with her transformation into Virginia Woolf in The Hours, and let her maternal side shine in Lion. She’s one of the most versatile actresses of our time and somehow manages to be deeply in touch with her sexuality while also seeming to be the best mom of all time? We don’t know how she does it and that’s why she’s 100% a Kangaroo Daddy.

Willem Dafoe and the Floridian Storks (Platoon, The Florida Project, The Lighthouse)

Jessica and Monica dive into everyone’s favorite well endowed goblin Daddy, the villainous yet wholesome Willem Dafoe! Daddy Dafoe ripped out the hearts of audiences everywhere in the war classic Platoon, flexed his paternal chops with an understated yet riveting performance in The Florida Project, and scared and confused us all in The Lighthouse. He has made a name for himself and his exceptionally angular face in cinema and continues to bring a freakish amount of talent to every role, no matter the size *wink*.

Taika Waititi: Our Kooky Kiwi King (Eagle vs Shark, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Jojo Rabbit)

This week Monica and Jessica chat about everyone’s favorite New Zealander, the incomparable Taika Waititi. Taika began introducing the world to his signature style with Eagle vs Shark, found the perfect balance between humor and heart in Hunt for the Wilderpeople, and divided audiences with Jojo Rabbit. He’s one of the most sought after filmmakers in Hollywood today and it doesn’t hurt that he’s real cute on top of it--let’s hear it for Daddy Taika Waititi!
