\"\"<\/p>\n

A title that became a punchline all its own, this week we are discussing 2012\u2032s Salmon Fishing in the Yemen<\/i>. A light romantic drama about project management and Western relationships with the Middle East, Lasse Hallstr\u00f6m\u2019s film accidentally stumbled into the Oscar race when the Golden Globes decided the film was a comedy and gave the spring release three surprise nominations.<\/p>\n

This episode, we discuss the career and outsider awards trajectory for Salmon Fishing<\/i> star Ewan McGregor and how the film\u2019s Globes nomination tally ultimately meant nothing for the film as an awards player. Get ready for lots of Globes talk as we spotlight 2012\u2032s most glaring comedy omission by the Globes and recall perhaps the greatest presenter duo of all time: Kristen Wiig and Will Ferrell. You get outta here, listeners!<\/p>\n

Topics also include movies narrated by dogs, left-field Globes Comedy picks both good and bad, and assassination attempts thwarted by fishing hooks.<\/p>\n
