Hollywood’s biggest night has come and gone, and we’re here to break down everything—from the jaw-dropping wins to the record-breaking speeches, the best-dressed stars, and, of course, those iconic brooches.

This week, Susan, Kelly, and Cort are joined by our annual Oscars expert, Erik C. Andersen, to discuss the unexpected wins, the indie film takeover, and Conan O’Brien’s hilarious hosting.
