  1. Four Brothers (2005)

    1D AGO

    Four Brothers (2005)

    Grab a seat and a cold drink and lets go back to 2005.—It's time for another session at the Hollywood Hangout. This week, we’re heading to the snowy, gritty streets of Detroit to break down the 2005 cult classic, Four Brothers. The show kicks off with Boxman flying solo to set the stage before the rest of the crew brings the heat. Soon after, Smark and the legendary Cheezeman join the fray to round out a panel that’s as tight-knit (and occasionally chaotic) as the Mercer brothers themselves. We’re diving deep into John Singleton’s high-octane tale of vigilante justice. Here’s what’s on the table: The Movie: We look at the pacing, the action, and whether that 2005 grit still holds up in 2026. The Cast: From Mark Wahlberg’s intensity and Tyrese Gibson’s charisma to André 3000’s cool composure and Garrett Hedlund’s breakout energy—we discuss who stole the show. The Message: Beyond the shootouts, what is this movie actually saying? We tackle the themes of chosen family, the weight of a mother’s legacy, and the blurred lines between justice and revenge. "They're not brothers by blood, but they're brothers by choice." Whether you’re a long-time fan of the Mercer boys or you’re seeing it for the first time, this episode is a deep dive into why this flick remains a staple of the genre.

    Daniel Bernhardt

    Welcome to the Hollywood Hangout, the place where we pull back the curtain on the legends who make movie magic happen. I’m your host, Boxman, and today we are throwing a massive spotlight on a man who has quite literally kicked his way through every level of the industry: the powerhouse that is Daniel Bernhardt. If you’ve seen an action movie in the last thirty years, you’ve seen Daniel—whether he was playing the lead, the formidable "Agent Johnson" in The Matrix Reloaded, or the guy making the protagonist look like a god behind the scenes. In This Episode, We’re Breaking Down: The Swiss Origin Story: We look back at Daniel’s early life in Switzerland and his initial obsession with martial arts that set the foundation for everything to come. From the Runway to the Ring: Before he was a screen legend, he was a high-fashion model. We discuss how he made the pivot from Paris runways to the gritty world of martial arts cinema. The Technical Master: Daniel isn't just "movie tough." We dive into his formal training styles, including his black belts and deep expertise in Kyokushin Karate and Tae Kwon Do. A Leading Legacy: We revisit his iconic film career, from taking over the mantle in the Bloodsport sequels to his unforgettable turns in John Wick, Atomic Blonde, and Nobody. The 87Eleven Connection: Perhaps most importantly, we explore his pivotal role within the 87Eleven Action Design team. We discuss how Daniel, alongside Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, revolutionized modern fight choreography and stunt work. Whether you know him as a leading man or the elite stunt coordinator who makes your favorite stars look like masters, this is a deep dive into the discipline, the bruises, and the brilliance of a true action icon.

    Parasite (2019)

    Welcome back to the Hollywood Hangout, the show where we peel back the layers of cinema's biggest hits. This week, your hosts Boxman and Smark Whalberg are venturing into the rain-soaked streets and high-end architecture of Bong Joon-ho’s 2019 sensation, Parasite. We’re kicking things off with a full breakdown of the Kim family’s masterclass in manipulation, tracking their journey from a cramped semi-basement to the heights of luxury. But we aren’t just talking plot points; we’re diving into the heart of the film’s Korean cultural roots—from the social weight of the "semi-basement" lifestyle to the class warfare hidden in a simple bowl of noodles. Boxman and Smark also take time to celebrate the powerhouse performances that made this film an international juggernaut, discussing how the cast balanced dark comedy with bone-chilling tension. It’s not just a thriller; it’s a comedy until it’s a tragedy, and then it’s just... wow Check us out on: Every Thursday at 9:30 PM Eastern YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hollywoodhangoutpodcast Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ymX0HRkWB45ja11B2I6fm Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/hollywood-hangout/id1132940251 Castbox: https://castbox.fm/channel/4647345?country=us Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HollywoodHangout/

    Airheads (1994)

    Crank the volume to eleven and check your demo tapes at the door! This week on Hollywood Hangout, your hosts Boxman and Smark Whalberg are taking a stage-dive into the 1994 cult classic, Airheads. If you’ve ever wanted to hold a radio station hostage with plastic squirt guns just to get your big break, this is the episode for you. We’re breaking down the film that proved Brendan Fraser, Adam Sandler, and Steve Buscemi are the power trio we never knew we needed. Here’s what’s on the Playlist: The Review: Does the "slacker-rocker" energy still hold up in 2026, or is it just static? We discuss the chemistry of The Lone Rangers and why the "himbo" energy of Chazz Darby is timeless. The Box Office Breakdown: We look at the numbers. Airheads didn't exactly set the world on fire upon release, but how did it transition from a box-office "bomb" to a VHS and streaming staple? The Cast & Crew: From a pre-superstardom Adam Sandler to the legendary Chris Farley, we celebrate the incredible ensemble that filled out the airwaves. Deep Cuts & Trivia: Think you know everything about the movie? We’re dropping little-known facts about the soundtrack, the original casting choices, and what actually happened behind the scenes at "KPPX." "How can you pluralize 'Lone Ranger'?" Join us as we settle that age-old debate and celebrate the film that taught us all that if it's too loud, you're too old.
