The Revisionist’s Almanac

And the Winners are...2006 Revised Oscars

I took a deep dive into 2006, along with special guests Daniel Edwards and V.P. Morris, and after the episode we turned the voting over to you, the people!
With us unable to agree with any of the Academy's winners, all six categories went to our social media polls for you, the listeners to decide on. 
The voting has concluded and it's time to share the results and officially add these winners to the coveted Revisionist's Almanac. 
With this episode cycle completed, we turn our attention to episode eighteen, where I was joined by 1st time guests Betsy & Trent Gorham of the Never Seen It podcast - to dissect the year 1976 (Rocky winning Best Picture). This episode will release on Friday, June 6th.

This is the first in a new series where I'll be interviewing people in and around the film industry.

Revisiting the 79th Academy Awards (2006) with Daniel Edwards & V.P. Morris

*Please note, due to technical issues beyond my control, I was unable to salvage the audio version of this episode, but I was able to restore the video version to a satisfactory quality, which I owed to both you, the listener, and Daniel & V.P who took the time to prepare before and during the episode. I don't anticipate this being more than a one-time issue, and I appreciate your patience and understanding*
