This week Madi and Aleena deep dive into WHAT the hell happened at the Academy Awards Ceremony (aka the Oscars) this year. Not only do we discuss what happened, we review the series of events that have unfolded since the Sunday ceremony (Whether Will Smith was asked to leave or not, Zoe Kravitz and Jim Carry getting dragged for their commentary on the situation, new video footage of Jada Pinkett Smith laughing after her husband slapped Chris Rock, Will Smith's resignation from the Academy and more!), what the conspiracy theories around the event are (is it a PR stunt? Or staged to benefit one of the Oscar's sponsors?), and we provide a brief historical overview of the rise of award shows in Hollywood.


Join us this week as we get to dissect what maybe this year's most infamous pop culture moment.
