This week on the InSession Film Podcast, it's all about the 2014 Oscars. Ryan from the CinemaJaw Podcast drops by to help us break down all the nominations that The Academy recently handed out, which included one for Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa. Can you believe that? We discuss which nominations were great, which one's make you scratch your head and we give some preliminary predictions on a first though basis.

This week on the InSession Film Podcast: Extra Film segment, we have our very first special guest (outside our wonderful funder Brandi Woodrum) as Rythemovieguy from the CinemaJaw Podcast drops by to help defend August: Osage County and explain why it's a great film. There's no doubt the movie is filled with outstanding performances, but does the narrative seem to work and fit with all the outsanding actors? That's the debate that JD and Ryan have on this special Extra Film review.
