About: Chasing Gold consists of both a weekly feature and podcast dedicated to following the Oscar race. Each installment will be colored by both our nostalgic attachment to, and recurrent disenchantment with, the awards, and will discuss one category in-depth, as well as another in the form of a list. The podcast portion will briefly cover these categories as well, but will focus more extensively on a handful of different films and their respective Oscar potential. Suggestions, questions and comments are welcome, and can be sent to chasinggoldpodcast@gmail.com
