Welcome to a very special 5th anniversary episode of The Hold Up! To commemorate this glorious occasion, we decided to watch a film Nelson saw and spoke to Longino about at our first recording session: Killing Them Softly. Will this Brad Pitt crime drama's stock continue to soar? Or will it crash and burn in economic collapse? Listen and find out!

Our friend, Tyler, requested we watch a silent film to distract us from the crushing depression of isolation. Hoping it was just what the doctor ordered, we chose the 1924 Buster Keaton comedy: Sherlock Jr. Can Keaton crack the case without cracking his skull? Is he the modern day Tom Cruise? And will this near century old movie rescue us from the modern horrors of life? Listen and find out!

We're back, baby! This is Part 2 of the first episode of our new spinoff podcast special, The Catch Up, where we watch a universally loved movie that one of us has never seen. Last time we gushed over the Paul Newman classic, The Hustler. And this time we continue the Fast Eddie saga with Martin Scorsese's The Color Of Money.

Welcome to our new spinoff of The Hold Up called The Catch Up where we watch a universally beloved film that one of us happens to have never seen. Occasionally we'll post these as bonus episodes to enjoy. And we're starting off with a two part episode! In part one, Longino will finally see The Hustler. Stay tuned for Part 2 where we watch The Color Of Money. Enjoy!

Join the Johns for a special listener request as we watch the swords and sorcery classic: Excalibur. Will this film of legend, directed by John Boorman, shine brightly like the holy grail? Or will its creepy, nasty and dirty side encase us in stone for ages until someone can pull us out? Listen and find out!

The Johns have decided to pledge Delta and watch Animal House. Will they make it through double secret probation? Can they find enough sheets for the social distancing toga party? Will this classic comedy survive a litany of horribly outdated sexist and racist high jinx? Listen and find out!

Once upon a time before the world went insane, John and John got together in person to record their April episode. Enjoy this time capsule recorded in early March that marks the last time Nelson and Longino were in the same room together. We watched the Best Picture winning Kevin Costner epic: Dances With Wolves.

It's one of top streaming films in the world right now, and be honest you probably already watched it, but come socially isolate with The Johns as we watch Contagion. We try out remote recording for the first time in this special episode covering the 2011 Steven Soderbergh classic about a terrifying pandemic that alters everyone's lives. Sound familiar?!? How accurate is this fictional story to the real world events of COVID-19? Is it only slightly terrifying or completely bone chilling? And on top of all that, how killer is that soundtrack? Listen and find out!

It's been a few years, but the grab bag is BACK! Join us for a special bonus episode where we take a ton of listener questions and chat about random nonsense. And if you want some Star Wars talk... oh boy do we have you covered. Enjoy!

Happy March dear listeners! The Hold Up Podcast plows through the apocalypse that is 2020 with a devilish thriller from 1998: Fallen. Will this Denzel Washington demon detective mystery be damned for all eternity? Or will it ascend to the heavens in eternal glory? There's only one thing we know for certain: tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime is on my side. Yes it is.
