About this listen

Hix Nix Stix Pix is where movie obsession meets fresh confusion. Every week, Robb Spewak dusts off a beloved classic from his collection and makes Josh Sroka watch it—usually for the very first time. Robb brings the nostalgia, Josh brings the "wait… what just happened?" Together, they argue, laugh, and maybe even agree on why these movies matter (or don't).All rights reserved. Art

  • The Muppet Christmas Carol
    Dec 16 2025

    This week on Hix Nix Stix Pix, Robb and Josh unwrap one of the most beloved Christmas movies of all time: The Muppet Christmas Carol.

    They dive into why Michael Caine's straight-faced, Oscar-worthy performance as Ebenezer Scrooge is the secret sauce that makes this film work, how the Muppets somehow deliver the most faithful adaptation of Dickens ever put on screen, and which songs still hit just as hard decades later.

    From Gonzo's narration to the surprisingly terrifying Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, the guys break down why this movie isn't just a kids' film—it's a holiday classic that gets better every year.

    Grab some cocoa, light the tree, and join Hix Nix Stix Pix for a joyful, heartfelt, and very Muppet-y look at The Muppet Christmas Carol. 🎄🐸

  • Holiday Inn (1942)
    Dec 2 2025

    This week, Robb and Josh are checking into Holiday Inn, the musical classic that gave the world "White Christmas," enough Irving Berlin bangers to fill a jukebox, and Fred Astaire literally dancing with explosives.

    The guys break down the holidays featured in the film (including a few that somehow didn't make the federal cut in 1942), dig into the charm of Bing Crosby and Astaire at their peak, and take a candid look at the moments that haven't aged quite so gracefully.

    From firecracker choreography to old-school Hollywood romance, it's a festive deep dive into one of cinema's most iconic musicals—complete with the usual Robb & Josh banter, surprises, and questionable life advice.

  • Planes, Trains and Automobiles
    Nov 28 2025

    This week, Josh and Robb take a bumpy ride through one of the greatest holiday comedies ever made: Planes, Trains & Automobiles. From frozen runways to flaming rental cars, we break down every disastrous mile of Neal and Del's unforgettable journey home for Thanksgiving.

    We dive into:
    ✈️ The travel nightmares that feel way too real
    😂 Why Steve Martin's F-bomb rant is a Hall of Fame meltdown
    🔥 John Candy's chaotic charm and the case of the "borrowed" rental car
    🏨 THAT bed scene ("Those aren't pillows!")
    😢 And how a comedy somehow sticks the emotional landing perfectly

    It's heart. It's chaos. It's polyester. And it's a holiday classic that only gets better with age.
    Grab your pillow—your actual pillow—and join us for the ride.
