It’s Oscar time this week at CineClub Podcast as the team discuss the contenders for the golden statuette – arguably the most recognised film trophy in the world.

The two front runners, One Battle After Another (2025) and Sinners (2025) are not everyone’s favourite picks. And the chat between Dion, Elliott, Adam and Billy soon moves to ask questions about the fairness (or not) of the nominations process and some films which would have been worthy nominees.

Our presenters are Dion, Elliott, Adam and Billy. The episode was engineered and edited by Emily Main.

This episode was recorded and produced by the CineClub members at the University of Sunderland. Special thanks to our technical team and academic staff.
