It was the battle of the faux Philadelphians with Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story and Ginger Rogers in Kitty Foyle. Why were the 13th Academy Awards so dominated by America's third-most prominent second city? Why is Ginger Rogers talking like that? And why was Joan Fontaine's mother so passive aggressive?  Well, we might not have all the answers, but we have plenty of theories. Join Michael (@mjdomanico) and Walter (@walthickey) as we dive into all of the Philadelphianess of 1940.

Katharine Hepburn: Woman of the Year

Not Her Again is the movie podcast where we look at those Oscar years where Meryl Streep was nominated for an Oscar… but went home emptyhanded. All 17 of them (and counting? Probably? Who knows?). 

Looking at Meryl's record number of losses will take us from Hollywood in the late '70s to today, and we'll see how things have changed, how things haven't, who should have won, what films were overlooked or overpraised, and why this woman's attendance is damn near perfect when she loses 85 percent of the time.
