Every year we break down all the Best Picture nominees at the Oscars and go over their chances to win each of their nominations. We rank them as Front Runners, Dark Horses, Long Shots and Just Happy to Be There. Joining the show is Paulo Bautista the host of the Oscars Death Race Podcast, who was heard on episode 142: Most Anticipated Films of 2021. On today's show we are discussing Sound of Metal, Minari and Nomadland. This series will continue the next two weeks as we finish covering the other five BP nominees.
