This is the Downbeat ninety seven won the Freak. There's live local laughs on
the Downbeat ninety seven to one the Freak. Bennt skin Shall getting in here
momentarily, but thank you for listening this morning. We're on six to ten
each and every morning. Tomorrow eight o'clock a chance to win pixies and modest
mouse tickets. If you want to participate in a little mini game, maybe
the small town boys Danny and Kevin against Big City Shale eight o'clock call in.
I have a little bit of breaking news, certainly breaking to me,
but most importantly this might be breaking to Kevin. Kevin, sit down,
Okay, sit, I hold in my hand something that was on a printer
not more than two minutes ago. And I don't know if you know this,
but at the dose Eki's Pavilion in Dallas, Texas, on June first,
twenty twenty four, as part of the upcoming US summer tour the Dave
Matthews Band, we'll be here in town, Okay, singing and dancing,
oh yeah, water dancing. Did you know this? I knew that tour
dates were going to get announced sometime or either today or next Tuesday. But
in my rumored tour dates pool that I'm in. Oh yeah, a little
gambling. I had Charleston for May thirty first to June first. This actually
just cost me a lot of money and ruined my trip to Charleston. You
bet on Charleston, Yeah, Charleston certain dates. Why would you do that
because that's where they normally did what they normally do. Because they're not normally
they play Dallas. It would be like it would have been May eighteenth,
but Dave's two daughters are graduating from the University of Virginia that weekend May thirty
first, DMB, You'll play at the Woodlands. If that affects your gambling
at all? It does? It does? They say? Pushed back Texas
two weeks because his daughters are graduating college. That's what just happened. So
you're feeling sadness, I feel no, I'm feeling I will go to the
June first show. It's a Saturday. It's a Saturday. It is also
the first day of lgbt Q and Pride Month Kevin, so it's kind of
a win win God, that is a big day. I'll be there in
my rainbow colored shirt, just grooving and dancing. My my friends The Killers
have announced an eighth show residency at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas, which the
following or it coincides a little bit with two nights a Dave in Colorado.
So yes, I have my sight set on the West coast, but not
the coast on the west. It's your sight set on mountain time. Mountain
time for August. So I'll be taking the whole month of August off.
What a sexy fun time for you? Gets good for me? Thank you
for the breaking news is that all the chaos was freaking out in the hallway.
I was freaking out too. I was like, what happened? We
thought you'd be excited, but you're mad about your fantasy? Yeah, standings
I lost, damn it. It is a late birthday present directly from Dave
Matthews to you, Kevio. Yeah, happy birthday, Kevy. It's just
not what I had in the pool. You know. Well, you know
we could just haven't canceled a whole tour. Now you get nothing. How
about that? Getting older? So you want to see them as many times
as you can. What do you got barbecue? Follow up? Okay,
So Danny's got this right. We got some food some food items here,
all right, So February second, we're just what about a week away from
that. I don't know about you, guys, but I'm a big fan
of the Food Network. I watch it. It's it's my go to if
there's not sports on, and it's the weekend. It's on because you're either
going to see a marathon of guys, grocery games or Triple D or some
fun cooking show, which I love watching. I love learning, I love
the I know all the chefs. I love the competition of it all.
I like seeing what they create. I get a lot of ideas. Is
Googa on there? I've never met Googa on the Food Network. Are you
pumped up for the upcoming season of Next Level Chef? I'm not really.
No. It's is it where the kids are chefs? No, it's the
one where there's an elevator and I don't know the kitchen moves up and down.
Now, I don't watch Next Level, but I do watch Diners,
Drive Ins, and Dives, and that's the Guy Fietti platform, and he
On February second, it will feature Palmer Fortune, who owns East Dallas restaurant
Palmer's Hot chicken, and he filmed. Fietti filmed this triple D episode at
Palmer's, a restaurant porch on the coast of Georgia, but many of the
dishes of the flavored town Chef Will Cook with Fortune will look like food from
Lakewood's restaurant, Palmer's Hot Chicken. Okay, does that make sense? Yes?
Okay? Do you know where that's at? Off Skillman, he's over
the off scummen and Abrams, I believe, uh, well, Abrams and
maybe mockingbird sense. Yeah, yep, uh, they're okay, I've been
there. Good food the show. I'm seeing a photograph of what looks to
be a delicious chicken sandwich. It would look like any normal chicken sandwich,
but you know, an elevated version of a chicken sandwich. But if you
look here, it's sitting on top of the bottom bun. Between the chicken
breast filet and the bun, it looks appears to be a layer of either
pimento cheese or mac and cheese cheese. Yeah. I think you're probably right.
The name of that sandwich is called the mother Clucker. Okay about that,
I get it. Bits Bits are fun. That's like the Master Burger.
I used to have it Metro Diner. How do you oh, I
just told you, Yes, the mother Clucker. You'll expect to see this
sandwich on Trip d. It's a fried chicken sandwich with Pimento cheese. They've
sold about forty thousand of the mother Cluckers in the past two years at the
State Fair of Texas. How do we get g Fieri in studio with us,
Kevin, this is your this is the way. It would be a
great way to promote that episode. I don't have a connection to him.
Maybe I can get Palmer fortune on from Palmer's Chicken. We'll call Palmer and
see if he's got gee'ze sell this guy. See if he is doing any
media when he's in town. It's g Fietti. It's Guy Fiertti. D
g Kevin's sake, it's give it, give it all right. Well,
as with most stories, Danny tells, this has made me hungry. Yeah,
thank you, Danny, appreciate its making us hungry. I'm sorry.
I did deliver on the triple shot of airplane stories in the last segment,
and I know you guys are anticipating hamburgers here. This is it's like a
chicken hamburger. That's your extra extra Read all about it. Portioned of Dingo's
more r News. Now it's time for this. What this feels like it
could be a real song. It's about three and a half minutes long,
so a week covered. Realize I played the instrument apart. Oh that's fine.
They're right next to each other. Oh good, hello boy, good
day for you. Oh yes, big day for all of us. Are
you excited? Very excited? I was. I kind of tuned out at
like seven thirty and a half of the segment. It was like scrolling.
I was like, oh because I was looking at the nums and I was
getting excited. Back here. So Oscar numbs dropped today at seven am sharp.
I believe they kind of drop them. Yeah, yeah, how do
they do? They don't officially drop until I say yeah, but there you
go say that is it a how do they drops? Website? I think
they have like a host emails like a yeah that too, and they have
like kind of like a show a little bit, like they'll have like two
hosts and they'll just go through each category. But they're dropping fast, like
as soon as you read one category, another one dropped, so they they
they were pretty much done, like fifteen twenty minutes after, so they're all
out forever for everyone to see. I'm ready Best Picture pure. You start
with the best picture. Yeah, they do that last on the award reverse
knucklehead. But then they give it all the way what the others are.
When they tell you who the actors and actresses are, then you're like,
oh, I know the movies already. That's a good point. I think
how she wants to. I think the best picture should be last okay,
because that's the best for last type doing. Five categories are best supporting uh,
Actor and Actress, Actor and Actress, Best Actor and Actress, and
then we can do the best picture Animated Short. I don't think many people
have seen many animated short movies. What about best key grip grip? So
start with the supporting Yeah, supporting actress. Uh. I'm gonna stay up
late at night on this category because this is really good. It's best supporting
actress. So every category gets five. Best Supporting Actress, Emily Blunt,
Oppenheimer, Danielle Brooks, The Color Purple, America Ferrera, Barbie Jody Foster,
Nyat and Divine Joy Randolph The Holdovers. Now, I was very surprised
on this America Ferrara nomination. But for those that with supporting actresses a little
weird. We'll supporting category in general for Oscars because you can usually for that,
like it's just one big scene that that really gets you that nomination because
I thought, you know, unpopular opinion America for she was. But the
speech that she gave ye, the monologue that was that scent. It over
the top, so that right there, it definitely got her nominated. It
was the high mark of that movie. It was the part of the movie
that we all watched and we're just like, damn, you get it now,
Like you don't want to read You're gonna want to read that monologue to
you two little girls around the world. That monologue was really good. I
have to give them credit for that, like I said, like, because
like I said, she was okay, like I thought she was cool,
and then she delivered that it was like, okay, that's the money right
there. I don't remember. That's how supporting categories usually were. Yeah,
I don't even remember that. I remember pieces of the movie, but that
part I absolutely do. There was applause in the theater, and it's definitely
the most impactful sort of the entire message of the whole movie, like absolutely
condensed into two or three minute thing, and it was well delivered, Like,
yeah, that was the cherry on top. It really was the cherry
on top for the film. A lot of favorites for me in this.
I can see a lot of people winning this. Emily Blunt, Danielle Brooks
in the Color Purple is amazing, is a star absolutely Yeah. If you
don't know, daniel Brooks says she was in Orange is the New Black.
Yep, Yep, I'm looking at it right now. I know exactly.
Phenomenal in the Color Purple. Very good. That musical, Yeah, it's
a music okay, Yeah, yeah, it's because it was you know,
it was the movie that came out seeing Spielberg did it back in the eighties
and then it was a play Broadway play Yeah with Bilberg, Ted dancing girl
friends, Yeah, girl Ted dancing and Whoopie Goldberg a couple for a long
time. Interesting, right, But the one name that's been really taking them
home throughout the war season though, it was Divine Joy Randolph in The Holdovers,
which I have not seen yet, and I got invited to the screening,
and I terribly regret it not going. I didn't feel like that was
the day for me, so I just didn't do anything. But yes,
that's right. I watched ten minutes of it and turned it off. But
I just could tell I was gonna get tired. That's It's not sure that
was bad or what's it about in those ten minutes, like hard to tell.
There's a college, yeah that's letting out for holiday break, rumpy and
the professor is staying it with a couple of kids, is saying she believe.
I think she's like she works at the school Divine Joy's character, but
it's getting a lot of praise, and she's getting a lot of praise.
So that was a, you know, very deserving nomination for her. And
that's gonna be very fun to see what happens, because honestly, that can
go anyway. I think it's gonna be between those three. Emily Blunt,
I loved it. Oppenheimer. I'm a huge only Blunt fan in general.
I thought she was like the sleep of performance in that movie. Yeah,
that's gonna keep me up at night. All right, I'm gonna do it
before the Damnpenheimer. Of course, break it down. I think that's an
easy movie. You can break down if you Yeah, yeah, what's with
Naiad? I mean, why watching this? That's an incredible story Diana and
i AD's gotta she just swims across giant things that seems like a that's a
cool idea person and no one ever talks about it. But I'm glad it's
getting something. It was an indie film and it didn't get much promotion,
so that's how you know. I watched the trailer. It's at Benning.
I believe as Diana and Iad just doing like a pretty awesome monologue about the
stuff you run into while you're swimming across the English Channel and how dangerous it
is. I don't know. I'm gonna watch Niad too, Please do.
I will me too. I'll watch it with you A Team today. Please
watch that. You don't want to watch Niad? What if? It's just
magical? I'll watch it. Let's go to Kevin's house in Richardson. We'll
do a double feature the A Team and Naiad. Right for the show,
oh Man be knocked out on the couch, all right? Uh? Supporting
actor Sterling K. Brown for American Fiction, Robert de Niro for Killers of
the Flower Moon, Robert Downey Junior for Oppenheimer, Ryan Gosling for Barbie,
and Mark Ruffalo for Poor Things. This is also an exciting one for me
because there's a lot of great performances this one as well. But obviously I
think our DJ is going to be the favorite for Oppenheimer. This is his
year. Has he won any? Does he? Everyone want to? I
don't know. Uh, he was nominated for Tropic Thunder back in Weird nine.
He got a no for that, didn't I don't think he wanted for
that dis Guys as a dude playing an what about Chaplain? Okay? Yeah,
he was nominated for uh Best Actor for Chaplain in nineteen ninety two,
I think, And that was before everything kind of went south and he kind
of unraveled and then put it all back together. Yeah, it's a great
like I'm excited to see and I know his oscars is gonna be great.
I think, Yeah, I think he's probably gonna take that one. I
don't know. Ask me in a couple of months when I what about and
everything not just too I don't see him. It's too many good before because
even Mark Ruffalo and Poor Things was amazing. Yeah, he was incredible important
things with Buffalo. Yeah, are you hungry? So yeah, I just
don't se Gosling taking it. Uh. It was a great run for him
throughout the awards season. It's very interesting to see how people have perceived Barbie
in or received Barbie in. Yeah, he's just not gonna win that,
I can tell you right now. He's not winning. That A man winning
an award for Barbie to be just the win. He's just just fantastic.
He carried the film. He kind of stole He did steal the show a
little bit. He was that dang good. He played Matchbox twenty on the
beach. You love that? That was my American hilarious and that was a
great song choice for that moment. Uh So Yeah. The Best Supporting Actor,
there's your five guys. Good luck fellas. Get Best Actress Annette Binning
for Naiad. We have my first American Indian nomination, Lily Gladstone for Killers
of the Flower most mm HM's fantastic. Yep. Sandra as It Huler Huler,
Hiller, Huler, It's got a little dots at the top for Anatomy
of a fall, carry Mulligan for Maestro and Emma Stone for Poor Things.
Yeah you think Ama is running away with this one. It's either her Lily.
I don't. This can go either way as well. I have no
clue. This is not getting the love that a lot of folks expected,
and I I got a lot of more nominations than you would thought. I
heard that her performances otherworldly in this film. I had her. I picked
her to win the Globe and she didn't. Maybe it'd be a fool's game
to pick her again for this, but I don't know. She won Best
Actress for Land Huh who Emma Stone? Yeah she did, Yeah, Yeah,
she's she's she's been nominated four times in one once. But yeah,
well, Kerrie Mulligan, she's been nominated a few times. And she's one
of those actresses that just always under the radar. But she does a lot
of great art artistry projects. She's like an actor's great in everything that she
does. But not too many people are gonna know her name. Yes,
absolutely, but she's really good. Uh So, Yeah, I think either
Lily Gladstone in that one too as well. But Poor Things, if you
get a chance, definitely check that out. I want to definitely check that
out. Uh so yeah, Best actress, Best actor, Here come the
Waieners. Let's let me let me know your name. Miss let me know
if a name sticks out or doesn't stick out. Best Actor Bradley Cooper from
Maestro Coleman Domingo, Rustin, Paul Giamadi for The Holdovers, Killian Murphy Oppenheimer,
and Jeffrey Wright American Fiction. What name do you think might have shu
shun up there? The second one was Rusting. I have not seen talk
out he played. It's a he's a gay gay rights activist and he that's
that's Rusting is his name, and I've never heard of this story. Colman
Domingo is another name who he's been around for a very long time and is
now getting his flowers. Very good actor, very very good. He's in
Euphoria. He's also in the Color Purple that's out now. Very good actor.
He and I'm so excited for him to actually begin in recognition now because
he's somebody that people need to pay more attention to. Killers of the Flower
Moon Hot take here. Good movie. Really liked it, would never watch
it again, probably like most history movies. Leo Lenardo DiCaprio's accent not convincing,
a little overdone. And for that, I tell you, snub away,
snub away. Huh yeah, yeah uh. I mean Paul Giamdi obviously
can put up a fight with Killian, but I think is gonna take it
with Oppenheimer. He was. I mean it was an epic, epic,
epic sweeping performance. I'm doing and Killers of the Flower Moon I'll do them
both in one day. Killers never you never got tiring to me? It
was open flower. What do we call that? Killer? I'll do Appenheimer
and Killers of Flower Mood and Flower Is. Don't you wait till the playoff?
By week Moonheimer next week? Munheimer the worst James Bond porn parody.
The cover of the movie is someone Moony Mooney. I love Jeffrey Wright and
I love Paul Giamatti, and I write another one. I don't know that
either of them have want. I know, Jimmy's never even barely been nominated
for anything. Yeah, I don't think he and I don't think he's I
think he's like snipped around awards seasons. But I don't know if he's ever
got a nomination right any idea in what American fiction has never been dominated one
Tree. Very versatile guys, both of them. And yeah, Okay,
exciting year. It really is. You're hearing a lot of names that you
normally don't hear, and you're seeing people who've been around for a long time
getting recognitions. I love that. It's so exciting, JJ, that we're
gonna tell you the top ten movies that are nominated for Best Picture with JJ
next to ninety seven won The Freak,
