Film Critic and Texas radio personality T.j. Callahan talks Academy Awards, red carpet moments, and that deep fried butter recipe at Rodeo Houston

In the Houston studio today to chat with former KILT news and traffic reporter T.j. Callahan, talking about how radio life introduced her to a new side hustle as a film critic - and what a gig! T.j. explains how she scores those meetups with famous celebs on the red carpet like Oprah and Claire Foy (The Queen) from 'The Crown'; her work with the Critics Choice Association, Houston Film Critics Society, The Alliance of Women Film Journalists and more. This busy Texas Radio Hall of Famer also discusses her Academy Award picks for Best Film, Best Actor and Best Actress; the new fascination with foreign films; her love of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo and the lowdown on those infamous deep fried foods - some you may be hearing about for the first time!
