53! Much to look forward to in the coming year: several exciting TCM projects, a New York City summer, the publication of my second book, and a bucket-list vacation early next year. Let’s do it!

Test your Oscars knowledge with Dave! We asked our resident Academy expert and author of 50 Oscar Nights, Dave Karger if he could guess the Oscar winner based on a single quote from their acceptance speech. Did YOU get them all? 🏆

Writing a book was so fun the first time that I’ve done it again. Introducing the beautiful cover of my second @tcm title, 50 MOVIE NIGHTS: Contemporary Stars on Their Favorite Classic Films. The book contains my new interviews with 50 notable people each talking about a classic movie that holds deep personal meaning in their life. You’ll hear from Scarlett Johansson, Paul Rudd, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jason Bateman, Tom Ford, Carol Burnett, Jon Hamm, Sterling K. Brown, Julianna Margulies, Wes Anderson, Bryan Cranston, Laura Linney, Don Cheadle, Anderson Cooper, and dozens more. Some of their choices are quite surprising and all of them are illuminating. The book comes out on September 15, 2026 (courtesy of @runningpressbooks ) but you can pre-order it at the link in my bio. I can’t wait for you all to see it.

What a night with this year’s phenomenal group of honorees at the @officialsbiff Virtuoso Awards. It was my 16th consecutive year hosting and I had a blast with Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, Wagner Moura, Wunmi Mosaku, Chase Infiniti, Amy Madigan, Jacob Elordi, Teyana Taylor, Sydney Sweeney, and our guest presenter Jane Lynch. See you next year!
