Welcome to "Going in Style: Grandpas Gone Wild (Bank Edition)"This episode, Mart and Trev are dusting off their best cardigans and reviewing Going in Style, the tale of three old boys who decide to rob a bank—because, apparently, “retirement” isn’t as exciting as it’s cracked up to be. First, we take a look at the 1979 version with George Burns, Art Carney, and Lee Strasberg, whose heist strategy is basically “wing it and hope for the best.” Then, we fast forward to the 2017 remake, starring the iconic Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, and Alan Arkin, (aka the Avengers of senior citizen films) where the pensioners still don’t have a clue, but now they’ve got Smartphones and Google Maps to help... sort of.

Two long time friends, one podcast.
