Ep.60 - Award SZN 2020
On Ep.60 of WG: Oscars, (W)AFTAs & BRIT Award nominations are here and they're varying levels of terrible. Also, a look into the concept of Intellectual Humility.
In a week where:
- Wiley & Stormzy are trading bars.
- The Oscars will go without a host for the 2nd year in a row.
- A Mississippi governor says '1000 Years of Darkness' Will Begin If Mississippi Elects its First Black Senator
- Counter-Terrorism Police place Extinction Rebellion on an "Extremist Ideologies" list.
- Harry & Meghan chuck the deuces to Royal Family life.
- A&E Departments in England had their worst December performance on record
- Ocean temperatures hit a record high.
- Billie Eilish will be the performer for the new Bond title track "No Time To Die".
In the 1st Film/TV segment: (9:25) The Oscar nominations have arrived and they are not good. Very saturated and of course, *super* white.
In the 2nd Film/TV segment: (27:53) The BAFTAs are now the WAFTAs apparently! Somehow, they did worse on average than the Oscars and that's an amazing feat in itself.
In Music: (45:25) The BRIT Awards continue to be extremely disappointing. Whilst they gave Dave the equal most nominations, they seem to forget that women make music too!
Lastly, in Life: (56:41) I have always been a proponent of willing to be wrong. Turns out there is a term for it! Welcome to the world of Intellectual Humility.
