Oscars 2026 instant reaction: listen to Screen Babble's full reaction to Academy Awards
The Screen Babble crew rolls out the red carpet to discuss last night’s Academy Awards in an instant reaction episode.
Hollywood was full of more glitz and glamour than usual as the stars assembled in Los Angeles for the annual celebration of movies. Unlike the best blockbusters, it was not full of twists and turns, as it largely followed the expected course.
As the dust settles, Screen Babble hosts Kelly Crichton and Matt Mohan-Hickson grabbed their mics and sat down to discuss the highs and lows of the night for an instant reaction episode of the podcast.
The duo break down the biggest awards, who won what, and whether they stayed up to watch it as it happened. There is also time to touch on some of the controversies of the evening - from technical hitches to speeches cut short.
Plus Kelly celebrates the success of her hometown hero Jessie Buckley - and Matt bemoans his biggest snub of the night.
In a new format for the show, it is a shorter episode of Screen Babble as the hosts offer their instant reaction to the Academy Awards. Listen to it on your podcast platform of your choice - or find it embedded in the article above.
