About this listen

We are 97 weeks away from the 100th Academy Awards; follow Adam, Drew, and Sarah as they journey to the early days of Oklahoma with the fourth Best Picture winner - 1931's Cimarron.

Are we in Oklahoma, 1950's New York City or Dune? These are questions we ask this week as we meet a colorful cast of OG gentrifiers settling the American West. Hold on to your wife and kids because some of these characters sure aren't doing the same. Cimarron is the first Western to win Best Picture - but how does it stack up against the rest?

In this episode you're gonna hear:
  • How the OU fight song "Boomer Sooner" came to be
  • The fascinating history of the first black actor to appear in a Best Picture winner
  • A step-by-step guide on how to be the worst father of all time
  • The introduction of a new Best Picture Brainrot host: Yancey Supreme


Follow us @bestpicturebrainrotpodcast as we keep delving into Oscars history with a brainrot spin
