Chris Bumbray previews the Golden Globe Awards!

well good morning to see twenty two always a pleasure to have chris bumbry on the show he is with joe blow dot com and uh... has a great eye and a nose for entertainment news on the line chris good morning good morning and how are you i'm very good you know what's on my to-do list now that i've uh... i'm gonna put it into this uh... or uh... i'm putting a close on the uh... the two weeks of mornings i'm going to go see the uh... bob dylan movie with all well yes it's it's great i really really liked it a complete unknown with tim with a child may so

It's kind of interesting because it's from the same director as Walk the Line, which I really like to the Johnny Cash movie. Yeah. And which one, which one all kinds of awards, didn't it? I think Walk the Line, yeah. And a complete unknown is up for a bunch, too, including at the Golden Globes this weekend. But Chalamet does all of his own singing in the movie, as does Monica Bobaro, who plays, you know, Joan Baez.

And, uh, and it's funny. Johnny Cash actually turns up in a complete unknown. It is not walking though this time. It's Boyd Holdbrook, but great movie. I really, really enjoyed it. It's one of my, one of my favorites of the year actually.

And something else that I find very interesting. Seven, the movie back in the day with Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt and with Gwyneth Paltter on the movie. Yeah. Yeah. They're re-releasing it, right? They're re-releasing it on IMAX this weekend. And I honestly, I can't wait because I was just a little bit too young to see it in theaters when it came out, which I never got. I saw it on video, you know, of course, but I never, but I never got the chance to see it on a big screen and in IMAX and in 4K.

I feel like it's going to be so disturbing. And I was thinking about it. I haven't seen seven in quite a while, but yeah, it turns 30 this year. And I mean, they're not wasting any time. They waited like two days into this.

30th anniversary to finally release it, but I can't wait to see that. I'm definitely going to see this weekend. All right. If you're looking for something to do, we were mentioning this a few times when we talked about the Habs being on their annual road trip over the holidays. They always clear out of the Bell Center to make room for a show of sorts. Sometimes it's a Disney show, but this year they cleared house because Cirque de Soleil has been performing Ovo at the Bell Center.

They have, they have, and I mean, if you've never seen Cirque du Soleil before, you have to go. It's one of those classic Montreal things to do. It's always special when they come back to town. It's looking at it. The big top one in the old port is not open again until April this year. So if you want to see Cirque du Soleil, I think this is the last weekend to go see them, and then there's nothing until April.

The one I wish that they would really tour, but I don't think they can. The rights issues, the Beatles, Love, and Vegas recently. And that's just an incredible show. But they're always great shows. Did you see that show? I did. I saw it just before it closed. I'd never seen it before. I saw it about two weeks before it finally wrapped up. It's running. Wow. What an amazing... Yeah. I was lucky enough to see it in Vegas as well. Absolutely a fantastic show.

Chris, I'm going to play a little audio here. It's something from the lady, a stand-up comic who has landed the hosting duties for this Sunday's Golden Globes. I've never wanted kids. Even when I was a kid, I would get baby dolls for Christmas and just be like, oh, God, this is going to be a lot of work. This is just... This is going to cut into nap time. I tried to abandon it in front of my brother's toy firehouse. Just anything. Get this away from me.

No wonder women rushed to have kids were being trained for it since we were kids. They're like, here's a baby doll. Here's an easy bake oven. I got one of those. I stuck my head in it. I was like, I want out of this narrative.

Chris, that's the cleanest stuff I could find from Nikki Glaser to play on the radio. She's not a household name, but correct me if I'm wrong. I think she more or less landed this hosting gig for the Golden Globes based on the Tom Brady roast. Yeah, I mean, she was great on the Tom Brady roast, but I'm very curious to see how her monologue goes down. I was reading that apparently she's been testing it out at some of the nightclubs in LA.

Because I mean, do you remember last year, Joe Coy did a monologue and it was so mild, but he got attacked like crazy. I feel like people have gotten so sensitive about comedy in particular, and any kind of put downs. I mean, I feel like it's a lose-lose situation. You know, they couldn't find any comedians to host the Oscars because nobody wants to do it, right? Because it's seen as one of the worst possible gigs that you can get because there's no way to win. I mean, I think she'll be hilarious. She's always really funny.

You know, she was quite provocative in the Tom Brady Rose. And I feel like the mood and the cold and glows auditorium for anything, even slightly edgy is not good these days. I think she'll be funny, but I feel like she'll get attacked no matter what she does. It's interesting you say that because she was on with Kimmel not too long ago, and Jimmy Kimmel has hosted his share of award shows. And she says she can't be too mean, even though people want her to be mean, you know, she can't be too mean because she's got to win over the room. She's got to get the laughs from the room as well, because it'll just be dead on her.

You know, and I feel like though, the thing is like last year, I thought that Joe Coy was incredibly clean and was really respectful and he was still attacked regardless. I feel like you always get bad reviews for that thing though. Like you're too safe, you'll get bad reviews. If you're too funny, you'll get bad reviews. It feels like one of the worst possible gigs that you can get. But you know, then again, everybody's going to be watching. I mean, I know I'll be watching. So it definitely puts you out in a huge platform. You're right though. It's not. It's really a thankless job. You almost can't win when you host one of these award shows.

You can't, that's why Milani has never wanted to do the Oscars, even though he'd probably be hilarious. Oh, John Mulaney, yeah, absolutely. Yeah, so it would be interesting, it's always good. I mean, it's live and they're serving alcohol and they're sitting right. That's right. Always a little more fun than the Oscars. At least they're having alcohol. What always amazes me is that they're able to do so many categories, and usually the show doesn't run over three hours. I'm curious to see

who went i mean i remember the globe is a couple years ago people kind of written off but it seems like they've they've come back i feel like wicked going to do really well that feels like a cold globe's movie i always roll my eyes in the most recent uh... golden globes because uh... they always have the bear in a comedy category that's the way it is the weirdest thing i don't know i i i i for the life of me i've never understood why the bear

is put it as put as a comedy show. I think it's only a half hour long. That's the way that they that's the way they categorize it. But I mean, there's a lot of drama in that kitchen in that restaurant. I mean, there's there's funny things in the bear, but it's not ha ha funny, you know, I mean, it's gonna say every episode of the bear can be kind of summed up with havoc in the kitchen. I love it, but it feels it, but it should definitely be up for drama.

Don't understand why it's so over comedy. It's the strangest thing. You know what I help really does well because I think it's nominated and I absolutely devoured this. It was the it was the Ripley mini series in black and white, which I thought was so well done. And beautifully shot. I mean, the fact that Netflix was able to green light, you know, a black and white, you know, eight hour mini series shot on film is pretty even pretty impressive to me. I mean, to me, that's the great thing about streaming, though, is that you can get these kind of niche programs

You know, the only thing about Ripley is that I hope that if they do a second season, they take another one of the books, because I'm kind of getting tired of seeing the talent that Mr. Ripley done over and over again, and so many times. There are a lot of other really great Ripley books, and I feel like that guy, Andrew Scott, terrific. Oh, yeah. Yeah, so hopefully it comes back, but hopefully they tag with something a little more fresh in people's minds. Chris, one last thing, and I might be putting you on the spot with this. We have to head to the newsroom, but the Golden Globes has been on NBC for years, and this year it's on CBS.

It is. And it's also going to be streaming on Hulu, which is kind of different. You know what I mean? The Globes, they went through all that turmoil a couple of years ago and they lost a lot of their contracts. Remember, Tom Cruise returned to all these Golden Globes. But it's going to be streaming on Hulu and on Disney Plus, I think, here. So that'll be interesting. I don't know what the audience is going to be for the Globes.

I'll be watching that for sure. Me too as well. Chris, thanks for this as always. Have a good weekend. Take care, Ken. My pleasure. All right. Let's head off to the CJAD 800 Newsroom. Get you up to date.
