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).

  • Fun movie podcast.

    If you like old movies, and old movie facts and trivia but your family refuses to watch them with you, this is the podcast for you.

    It feels like watching a classic with friends.

  • Great reviews

    I’m not an old dude but still like the films these two talk about. Although the films are a little aged to get Robb’s perspective (the old dude) mixed with Josh (the young guy) perspective is a great mix.
