From free sex bungalows to Phil’s new monthly stage show, from two popular Netflix series to two Palme d’Or winning movies, from whisper quiet roller coasters to the proper pronunciation of the word “behemoth”, from a sci-fi cult film about a walking television from another dimension to appalling online attitudes expressed about the way popular entertainers look, it’s safe to say that this week’s show truly has something for everyone! So, pull up a chair, put on headphones, crank the volume and join Dean and Phil as they drop in on a Los Angeles City Council meeting, as they visit Universal Studios, as they go backstage at Skylight Theatre, and as they advocate for a world free of violence and full of right speech. We’re pretty sure it’s interesting. We have a sneaking suspicion it might be oddly inspiring. We know it’s utterly hilarious. And, oh, yeah, there are puppets!

Phil is playing hurt with a nasty head cold. Dean is braving the sub-zero temperatures. And somehow, they manage to bring you one of the most epic installments yet of YOUR Chillpak Hollywood Hour! They start the show by discussing some of the upcoming 2026 cinematic releases that the Criterion Collection has on their list of the films they are most anticipating. Then, they analyze the Academy Award nominations, the surprises, the snubs, and the historic trends they see unfolding. From the best in cinema 2025 to the worst in cinema, an email from a loyal listener inspires Dean and Phil to discuss the Razzie Awards. Finally, your friends in podcasting wrap things up by revealing each of their lists of the five films that angered them, frustrated them, or downright confused them in 2025.
