JUST TALKING
Gen Z Critics Co-Founder Elizabeth 'Betsy' Kim joins JUST TALKING to predict 2022 Oscars. Oscar season 2022 is here and who grabs the golden trophy for Millennials and Gen Z fans? — CODA—nothing else, just CODA. You can measure the value of a film by questioning whether it’s worth your money or your time. Relying on cinematic stereotypes is lazy story telling—nerdy Asians, British villains, German Nazis and uncultured countries. Why keep remaking movies with Hollywood color-casting? Why are we letting diversity quotas ruin movies? Aren’t show runners doing their homework when there’s already established franchise material? Look at Jake Gyllenhaal as the Prince in The Prince of Persia, Tom Cruise as The Last Samurai and John Cho as Spike Spiegel in Netfix Cowboy Bebop adaptation—this should be a wake-up call!

STRIKE A CHORD
Singer/Songwriter Sophia Marie joins STRIKE A CHORD from Washington D.C. to discuss her debut EP entitled “Foreigner.” When Sophia isn’t recording music she’s at Georgetown University writing papers, supporting her sorority organization and working at an internship—she is busy! Coming from the West Coast to the East Coast can take some adjustment time. West coast people generally have a really chill vibe. “On the East coast everyone is into consulting, politics and a cut-throat mentality.” “Foreigner” EP track “Venice Beach to Washington D.C,” is a legally blonde song embracing the challenge of transitioning from one place to the next—finding your own voice and not relying on politicians and celebrity elites to tell you what to believe in! Sophia’s single “Foreigner” cautions those seduced by romanticism to fall in love with the person, not just the foreign accent.
