Did you catch the Golden Globes on Sunday night? Of course you didn’t — who watches awards shows these days? In fact, do people even still have pay TV subscriptions?

OK so there are still some people who love awards season and last night’s 2016 Golden Globes had a few nifty twists and turns that your coworkers are definitely going to be talking about on Monday morning… before going on to completely forget that the Golden Globes ever happened by the time Tuesday morning rolls around.

In the meantime, make sure you don’t show up at the office completely unaware of what went down at the Globes by running through the list below. We’ve laid out all of the winners from every big category, and we’ve also listed all the losers for good measure. And no, by the way, that’s not a typo — The Martian did in fact win Best Comedy.
