Show Notes
This week on And the Runner-Up Is, Kevin welcomes back Oscar Wild cohost Nick Ruhrkraut to discuss the 2025 Oscar race for Best Actress, where Jessie Buckley won for her performance in "Hamnet," beating Rose Byrne in "If I Had Legs I'd Kick You," Kate Hudson in "Song Sung Blue," Renate Reinsve in "Sentimental Value," and Emma Stone in "Bugonia." We discuss all of these nominated performances and determine who we think was the runner-up to Buckley.
