# The Aviator (w/ Amy Nicholson)

5/28/2024

Lauren and Nicole take a wild ride in the sky covering Scorsese’s _The Aviator_ (2004) with a very special guest: film critic, author, and podcast host Amy Nicholson ( [Unspooled](https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unspooled/id1381507437))! After all independently coming to the realization that this is neither a war epic nor an Amelia Earhart biopic, the group assembles to discuss Leonardo DiCaprio’s portrayal of nepo-baby Howard Hughes, the theatrical debut of Gwen Stefani, and the clever invention of the bathroom stall.
