The New Haven Nose On Aziz Ansari And Two More Oscar Nominees: 'Bohemian Rhapsody' And 'Green Book'

Colin's away this week, but The Nose must go on! Or maybe "must" isn't quite right, but in this particular case, The Nose is going on -- with excellent guest hosts: The Arts Paper's Lucy Gellman and the New Haven Independent's Tom Breen.

This week, Aziz Ansari addressed his #MeToo allegation in his standup set. Is it possible that he... actually handled it kinda well?

And then: The Nose tackles two more Oscar-nominated moviesBohemian Rhapsody and Green Book. They're both nominated for Best Picture at the Academy Awards, and they both won Best Picture at the Golden Globes.

Some other stuff that happened this week, give or take:

GUESTS:

  • Mercy Quaye - Podcast host, freelancer, and the principal consultant for The Narrative Project
  • Brian Slattery - Arts editor for the New Haven Independent and a producer at WNHH radio
