Back in January, I made a video ranking the Oscar Best Picture winners from 1940-1979 and it was a blast. When movies are that good, it's hard not to have fun. Today, I'm making the sequel to that video where I rank the winners from 1980-2010. The question is: will the quality of the movies hold up to those from the golden age of Hollywood? Let's find out.

Actor and writer Clifton Duncan joins me for a candid and impactful conversation about the personal cost he paid on Broadway for speaking out against the dominant left-wing narratives that he believes have come to shape the culture of the American theater industry. However, he also talks about his new one-man show about Thomas Sowell.
