Mindy and Mandy Moved Us While Oscars Snoozed Us

After briefly breaking down the Oscars, the Bagels compare it to the Jewish community after COVID (of course) and wonder if the trailers for "In The Heights" and "West Side Story" are too similar. Erin's looking forward to the Steven Spielberg remake of "West Side Story;" Esther's looking forward to being less confused about where to find which movies and TV shows. Erin invents the term "platon-com" to describe the upcoming Tiffany Haddish & Billy Crystal movie, "Here Today." The upcoming season of "Never Have I Ever" (created by Mindy Kaling) renews the conversation about Jewish stereotyping and invoking the Holocaust; and we talk about Erin's favorite interview subject Mandy Patinkin's discovery on "Finding Your Roots."   Follow Erin, Esther and The Bagel Report on Twitter!
