Please check out the full episode on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture The 2020 Emmy Nominations were announced this morning and as always, they invoked an emotional response from all of us. Some of our favorites got in and some of our favorites were snubbed. There were surprises, head-scratchers, and everything else in between. Moments after the nominees were finished being announced, myself, Michael Schwartz, Ryan C. Showers & Amanda Spears took some time during our lunch breaks to deliver our instant reactions to the nominations. We weren't originally going to record one of these but we figured we'd do something fun for the Patreon subscribers.

Jeremy Allen White is a face you might recognize from the hit Showtime show "Shameless" but he has been steadily growing his filmography with independent feature roles such as 2018's "After Everything" and now with this year's "The Rental." Here, he co-stars with Dan Stevens, Alison Brie, and Sheila Vand under the direction of first-time filmmaker Dave Franco. What was his experience like working with Dave? The rest of the cast? Has he ever had a poor Airbnb experience? We discuss all of this and more in my interview with him which you can listen to down below. Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
