Summary

It's a shorter Empire Podcast this week, folks (blame Hollywood for shutting down for Thanksgiving, which is just plain selfish), but that doesn't mean it's any less jampacked with guests, greatness, and guesty greatness than usual. First, Chris Hewitt sits down with Auli'i Cravalho, Moana herself, to talk about returning for this week's Moana 2 and the art of not talking to people on planes. [16:03 - 29:35 approx] And then Ian Freer has an audience with... well, if not the Pope, then the next best thing in the guise of legendary trio Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, and Isabella Rossellini, the stars of new papal election thriller, Conclave. [46:49 - 1:04:52 approx] Either side of those, with Chris incapacitated by a last-minute case of neck-knack, Helen O'Hara hosts and is joined by James Dyer and Amon Warmann for a fun episode in which they discuss what they're thankful for this year, run their eye over what passes for movie news, and review Conclave, Moana 2, and Dear Santa. Oh, and Helen tries desperately not to do a Mount Rushmore question. Will she succeed? Find out by listening. Enjoy!

Design against Dull. On the Empire podcast this week, we lock ourselves in the Sistine Chapel and get painting with Ray Fine, Stanley Tucci and Isabella Rossellini. Only kidding, guys,

we're talking conclave. And we get lost with Aulie, Cravio, uh, for Moana too. All this and the

usual movie news and nonsense on the movie podcast that has eaten Tom Cruise's bunt cake, and no, that is not a euphemism.

1:13.7

Hello, Pod, I'm your host, Helen O'Hara.

1:16.2

Your regular host, of course, Chris Hewitt is not here today.

1:19.7

Unfortunately, he's not well, so all the best to him for a swift recovery,

1:23.7

mostly because we need him back at work.

1:26.4

But fear not, I am joined by two colleagues of such lethal cunning.

First up is a man who just moments ago finished popping edamame like they're going out of style.

1:35.6

Please welcome James Dyer.

1:37.1

I did. I had a heroic amount of Edamame.

1:39.8

It's not as good as Tom Cruise's bun cake, though.

1:42.4

Very few things are.

1:43.6

Which did arrive yesterday, two of them, in fact, and I ate my own body weight, and it was incredible, and I love it.
