In this episode of Living It Up with Lenise, I'm teaming up with an evening TV producer and a fellow podcaster to break down the 2026 Academy Award nominations. We're debating the heavy hitters \u2014 from the Best Picture race between One Battle After Another, Sinners, and Hamnet to a stacked Best Actor category featuring Timothy Chalamet, Michael B. Jordan, and Leonardo DiCaprio. We dig into the brand-new Achievement in Casting award, talk about who got snubbed (yes, we're looking at you, Dwayne Johnson), and make our probably-wrong predictions across every major category. Whether you're filling out your Oscar ballot or just love talking movies, grab some popcorn \u2014 no butter for me, please \u2014 and join us.
