Cake & Cookies: The Robb & Katie Show

Robb wants a seat at the captain’s table. Josh isn’t convinced there even is a captain’s table—and wearing a tie might be the least of their problems. This week, Josh Sroka and Robb Spewak compare clothes they’ve owned for decades, set some ground rules for visiting aliens, and dream up their ideal Super Bowl halftime shows. Elvis Presto sends them down a wonderfully strange rabbit hole, while a “...

Is it cake—or is it just a lot of edible clay? Josh Sroka and Robb Spewak take on Is It Cake? Halloween and discover that liking cake, game shows, and Mikey Day does not necessarily mean liking all three together. From suspiciously easy reveals and confusing rules to eight-hour baking sessions, celebrity judges, and Robb’s many questions about Blippi, the guys cut through the frosting to ask what...

Josh has hired an assistant. His name is Earl. Robb has one question: who the hell is Earl? In episode 006, Josh introduces his AI assistant, a tireless organizer with the attitude of Orioles legend Earl Weaver. Earl sorts founder messages, untangles a stack of toll notices, checks in with Josh’s wife, and offers thrift-store advice with a grumpy baseball-manager streak. Robb wonders when a comput...

Still Talkin’ 005 — The Burger Box Robb drops his car key fob into the trash and turns the rescue mission into a game show. The contestants: fifteen open fast-food bags, two trash cans, and one man determined to prove he’s brilliant. The twist? The burger box. In Episode 005, Robb walks Josh through a garbage-day disaster and the surprisingly clever trick he uses to track down his missing key. Jos...

Josh and Robb bought the hype, found the golden ticket, and somehow wound up with a notebook full of complaints. In this bonus episode, they take a spoiler-filled trip through Netflix’s  Wonka’s The Golden Ticket —a reality competition with spectacular sets, suspiciously camera-ready contestants, an AI Gene Wilder voice, celebrity cameos by webcam, and enough production tricks to make the chocolat...

Some people visit a haunted attraction to be scared. Robb visits one and learns industry terminology—specifically, the “boohole,” the hidden alcove where a scare actor waits to ruin your evening. In Episode 004, Robb takes Josh inside a Halloween Haunt preview packed with fog machines, monsters, candy apples, suspiciously enthusiastic influencers, and enough booholes to make anyone reconsider thro...

Robb has spent years believing it was spelled “Traitor Joe’s.” Now the truth—and the groceries—can finally come out. In Episode 003, a parking-lot handoff of collectible Elvis Matchbox cars leads Robb and Josh into the strange world of specialty groceries, suspicious shoppers, vegan marshmallows, chicken pot pies, frozen-food nostalgia, and the realization that the store may not have been betrayin...

In Episode 002, Robb and Josh discover that mosquitoes may be getting smart enough to work around insect repellent, launching an urgent investigation into DEET, bug intelligence, the animal kingdom’s unofficial IQ rankings, and whether a mosquito could someday outsmart a chicken. The science is unsettling. Their conclusions are considerably less reliable. Then Brian Boone, fact curator for Uncle J...

New show. Same friends. Strong opinions about pizza. Robb and Josh kick off Still Talkin’ with a celebration of the Founders who made it possible—and a $74 pizza lunch Josh can’t let go. From questionable “best pizza” bragging rights to favorite local slices, the conversation becomes a full-blown debate about what makes a pizza worth the price. Plus: Robb’s lifelong obsession with radio jingles, J...

It's a special JAR episode, and Robb opens Founder’s Day with dilated pupils, candy-coated cataracts, and a medical plan whose best feature is “insurance might actually pay for it.” Josh and Robb officially welcome the founding members of Still Talkin'—no final G, no time for it—complete with vault access, future swag, and a Hall of Fame probably not carved into the Kennedy Center. Their L...

Robb and Josh take the wheel, and Robb’s missing Cutco steak knife becomes a full-blown domestic crime scene—complete with trash-bag forensics, eBay negotiations, and a dream in which the blade finally comes home. The Jarheads also discover that cursive is now basically an encrypted language, which is unfortunate when a young teacher receives a handwritten note. From there, they inspect celebrity...

This week on Hix Nix Stix Pix, we head into 1930s Los Angeles for one of the greatest—and darkest—mysteries ever put on film: 1974’s  Chinatown . Jack Nicholson is private eye J.J. Gittes, a man who thinks he’s investigating an affair until murder, water, money, corruption, and one horrifying family secret reveal something much bigger. We break down Nicholson and Faye Dunaway, the unforgettable No...
