ANNOUNCING: 4TH ANNUAL OSCARS LIVEBLOG!
The Oscars are this Sunday (February 26th) and for the fourth year in a row, The Hodgepodge Podcast will be live-blogging the event! So, if you’ve always wanted The Oscars to have live commentary like a sporting event, but in printed words only, this is the place to be!

So, swing on over during the show and see if Doug and Dirty A admit to blubbering uncontrollably once they get to memorializing Carrie Fisher.
