The Tripod boys are pulling an all nighter as they discuss TAXI DRIVER the first film in Paul Schrader's Night Worker Trilogy...

32.3 Vertigo | Hitchcock's Relationship Trilogy

32.2 The Man Who Knew Too Much | Hitchcock's Relationship Trilogy

Sun, 22 Mar 2026 23:10:56 GMT

More like The FILM that BLEW too HARD! Am I right or am I right people? Look every now and again we see a master directors work and sometimes it just kinda STINKS okay. So what if we didn't like this thing, SUE us go on see if we care. It's long, the plot is wafer thin. At one point Dr. Meckenna drugs his wife so he can give her bad news.

Yeesh, anyway we talk about this and a bunch of other stuff... ENJOY!

32.1 Rear Window | Hitchcock's Relationship Trilogy

Sun, 15 Mar 2026 13:00:00 GMT

Well hold on just a minute here. You're telling me that Alfred Hitchcock made an unofficial trilogy? You're darn right, bucko! And it's starring non-other than American film legend, Jimmy Stewart. In the upcoming three films, the dynamic duo explore what Hitch defined as the three phases of relationships; romance, marriage and loss. In this episode, Matt and Tyrie discuss all things Rear Window - how it got made, Hitchcock's idea of 'pure cinema', and if the film's slow pace holds up compared to the modern thrillers of today! Oh yeh, and Jimmy S may stop by for a visit from time to time...

Sun, 01 Mar 2026 13:00:00 GMT

Okay so, 28 years after Small Soldiers came this...Bone Temple. That's it. That's the whole connection to the previous unofficial trilogy and deserved discussion, so really any connection would have done. Join Matt and Tyrie as they dive into the fourth film in the 28 Years Later franchise, chatting about it's sickening but thematically useful depictions of violence, the wonder of Ralph Finnes, and the power of immersive theatre. And consider this listeners...Will the pod-brothers cover the third instalment in this Bone trilogy when it releases in the near future, marking the first 'official trilogy' on mic? Who knows, but they do say the Pod-Devil is always up for making a deal...

30.3 Noelle | The I'm Related to Santa Trilogy

Tue, 23 Dec 2025 13:00:00 GMT

It's Christmas Eve and Tripod is back for one last holiday gift...but this one is more like a lump of dang coal! In the (merciful) final instalment of the trilogy, Tyrie, Matt and his brother Ben take Disney's Noelle to task, lamenting it's missed opportunities, under-utilised talent and wondering who it's actually for. The mouse certainly has a lot to answer for.

In any case, Merry Christmas and Happy Hoglidays everyone, we'll see you next week for our final ep of 2025!

Oh and please don't sue us, Peter Combe. We love you.

Giddy up, listeners! Bronco Bridges is back for this week's Reel Quick to help Matt and Tyrie celebrate a whopping one-hundred episodes of Tripod! And what better way to celebrate this milestone than with a motion picture classic that everyone saw and everyone remembers...Crazy Heart. Wait...is that right? No seriously...they did Crazy Heart for their one-hundredth? Are they trying to lose listeners? Good lord. Anyway, pour yourself a sobering glass of ginger ale and enjoy as the boys chat about the state of music biopics (many of which they have failed to see) and the ups and downs of Crazy Heart, and Matt's perfect surprise gift to his podbrother, Tyrie.

Tue, 25 Nov 2025 13:00:00 GMT

Wow guys. What a journey. We had some laughs. We had some yucks. But here we are at the end of Roberto Rossellini's War Trilogy with Germany Year Zero.

This week, Classic Tripod continues it's deep dive into Roberto Rossellini's War Trilogy. Four-time guest and recent Italian tourist Simon Harvey joins Matt and Tyrie, ready to discuss 1946's Paisan - a feature made out of six 'episodes', each chronicling the liberation of Italy by the allied forces of World War II. Being such an important film which tackles some incredibly bleak subject matter, you'd be forgiven for thinking this episode is without bits, goofs, gags and laughs. But you'd be dead wrong. Enjoy!

Reel Quick: Tron: Ares

Tue, 04 Nov 2025 13:00:00 GMT

Hey man! Like, welcome back, man. Today Tyrie and Matt are breaking into the grid, with their discussion of Tron: Ares. The boys ponder why Disney keeps going back to this neon world of one's and zero's (especially when none of the three films have ever made the company any actual one's or zero's) as well as the state of Jared Leto's career, and more importantly, the seemingly lost art of blockbuster movie-making and what Tron: Ares has to say about A.I., grief, connection, and what it truly means...to be cool.

Feeling existential? GOOD! Because this week the boys are back to close the book on Takeshi's Kitano's Yakuza Trilogy. The final instalment, Sonatine, follows Beat and his boys as they lay low at the beach, play some games, throw some disc and then go out in a blaze of...glory?

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 13:00:00 GMT

Fresh off the heels of the Cursed Childhood Trilogy - 80's fantasy films crawling with puppets like Hoggle, Aughra and Falkor - Matt and Tyrie thought they might never find a relevant Reel Quick to pair alongside their new, felt covered friends. Oh well. Never mind I gues-- WAIT A DAMN MINUTE! I see something...out on those hills...in the mist...it's, it's a PUPPET! In 2025!!! And not just any puppet - it's Ochi! Yes that's right folks, you can stop your clamouring because we heard you loud and clear - today we're finally covering The Legend of Ochi...a film we all definitely saw in theatres this year.

Wed, 16 Jul 2025 10:01:35 GMT

In 1978 Grease was released to an unsuspecting public. 28 Years Later, in 2006, High School Musical was released to a post Grease public that was yet again unsuspecting...Guys... 28 Years Later...Is that a COINCIDENCE or WHAT?!

And you'd better believe the boys talk about it in this instalment of Reel Quick.

They are also joined by Tasman Aspinall! His fifth appearance on the show! Together they talk about the films frenetic visual style, it's deep and powerful themes and of course that giant DONG that takes up a good 60% of the screen (You know the one).

In this final instalment, we chat John Waters, unpack John Travolta’s transformation into Edna Turnblad, tip our caps to the return of Max Shrek and Catwoman, and discuss whether the film actually delivers on its message of inclusion, or just smooths it over with musical sparkle.

School is back in session listeners and this time...its MUSICAL. Fresh off the heels of the disturbing and difficult films of David Lynch, Matt has taken back the reigns of programming and is delighted to dive into the fun, bubblegum world of Grease, which Tyrie argues is actually more terrifying and dystopian. The two T-Birds discuss what made this original High School musical such a smash hit in 1978, and why it's still so popular today, despite being panned by critics and ageing like a melon in the sun.

25.3 Inland Empire | David Lynch's LA Trilogy

Thu, 12 Jun 2025 22:02:05 GMT

Alright people here it is; the episode so special Tyrie forgot to upload it. We're talking about Inland Empire. Considered David Lynch's most impenetrable film, it tells the story of a woman in trouble. At least that's what Lynch says it's about. It's filmed entirely on a small mid range camcorder, so while it doesn't exactly look like a silk purse, it generates some transfixing imagery. Stay tuned to find out what our next Reel Quick ep will cover over the month of June.

Matt and Tyrie dive in to what separates this remake from the 1974 original and do a bunch of Tony Soprano impressions. All aboard!

We're BAAACCCCCKKKK! It's poddin' time people, and what better way to celebrate the month of love than with the Love Trilogy...three films about the wonders, warmth and dizzying heights that love...wait...wait a goddamn second!

Enter, Hong-Kong legend, Wong Kar-wai and his revolutionary take on love, loneliness and loss.

20.3 A Christmas Carol | Robert Zemeckis' Uncanny Trilogy

Wed, 11 Dec 2024 00:53:37 GMT

Merry Christmas, every one! Or at least it was, until Matt and Tyrie had to watch Bobby Z's 2009 take on this holiday classic. But hey, Tasman is back and he kind of liked it! One man's lump of coal is another man's magical sleigh bell as they say! The guys talk about how strange the characters look in this decidedly bleak film (spoiler alert, it's uncanny), and try to figure out what makes this particular adaptation just a little dull. As Tripod closes the book on Zemekis (for now) and indeed on its 20th Trilogy, we look forward to our Year in Review episode next week to cap off a wondrous 2024! As always, thanks for listening!

Wed, 05 Jun 2024 23:10:17 GMT

The boys at Tripod are spicing things up with their fourth (that's right fourth!) episode of the Satoshi Kon Quadrilogy! This time the boys DON'T talk about Ice Age (act least not that much) but they do talk about the interplay between dreams and movies, animation theory and we close the book on the tragically short career of Satoshi Kon, one of the greatest filmmakers of all time... Oh and of course we announce our next trilogy! Enjoy!

11.2 Millennium Actress | The Satoshi Kon Quadrilogy

Tue, 21 May 2024 20:00:58 GMT

It's entertaining, it's thrilling, it's moving, it's dare I say it a masterpiece, it's Satoshi Kon's second feature film Millennium Actress!

The boys really dive deep into this one. They also get distracted by a crane they see out the window. But it gets better, they also do their best (or worst) impersonations of Sylvester Stallone, Richard Harris, Michael Gambon and there's even some Jiminy Glick in there for good measure. Enjoy!

11.1 Perfect Blue | The Satoshi Kon Quadrilogy

Tue, 14 May 2024 22:52:29 GMT

Welcome Tripod fans to the filmography of Satoshi Kon - FOUR films which are not linked by the usual elements like characters or plot, but instead are linked by the genius of one of the worlds most interesting and tragically short-lived filmmakers.

In this episode, the amigos dive in to 1997's psychological thriller, Perfect Blue - one of Tyrie's top 4 films, and a film that Matt had not heard of. So the boys are really playing to type in this episode people.

They discuss the cartoons they watched as kids, Matt goes off the dome for the intro and REALLY botches it, and Tyrie chows down on some watermelon, which prompts the pivotal discussion...whats the best melon?

Welcome...to Quadpod.

10th Trilogy Spectacular

Wed, 08 May 2024 01:38:40 GMT

In this episode the amigos take a look back at the journey so far. Ten trilogies, thirty films and hours upon hours of slop for the slop gods. Speaking of slop... Matt was also very sick during this recording. He ate some bad food at a food truck, but don't worry, he is alive and well.

What were your favourite moments? What were theirs?

They also take a moment to look forward, to the future, and give a hint at where the show is heading.

Enjoy!

9.1 Enter the Void | Gaspar Noé's Trip Trilogy

Wed, 27 Mar 2024 01:38:58 GMT

Get ready dear listeners because today Tripod is taking the ultimate TRIP with the ultimate TRILOGY: The Trip Trilogy featuring French Provocateur Gaspar Noe. To kick things off the boys are taking a heady dose of ENTER THE VOID (2009), a film that shocked audiences on release and still manages to shock viewers even today.

Matt and Tyrie talk about the pioneering VFX, the existential questions raised, and the impact this thing had on movies to come. They also manage to somehow – SOMEHOW – talk about Napoleon (2023), Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget (2023) and the future of stop motion sex scenes in cinema.

8.3 The Favourite | Yorgos Lanthimos' Existential Trilogy

Wed, 13 Mar 2024 00:32:07 GMT

In today's episode the boys talk about an the icon- the QUEEN- that is Olivia Coleman in her award winning performance in The Favourite; which is incidentally the last episode in our Existential trilogy. Big shout out to Rachel Weisz and Emma Stone too; they both rock.

Watch as the boys date this recording waaaaaay before the release of Poor Things as they speculate on what that movie eventually turns out to be. And of course stick around to find out what the next unofficial trilogy will be...

8.2 The Killing of a Sacred Deer | Yorgos Lanthimos' Existential Trilogy

Tue, 05 Mar 2024 19:30:52 GMT

What is existence? What is our own lived reality? Sometimes it is joyous. Sometimes it is melancholic. Sometimes it is the act of sitting through a movie you don't much care for. That was Matt's experience anyway. In this 2nd instalment of Yorgos Lanthimos' Existential Trilogy, Tyrie plays the devil's advocate to Matt's whiney complaints, defending the auteur's grim, dread-drenched family drama, as the boys discuss the tricky process of turning ancient myths into modern tales, the strange choice to film real-life surgery, and the weird things Jared Leto sends his cast mates. Eat it up like a big bowl of spaghetti - Barry style.

8.1 The Lobster | Yorgos Lanthimos' Existential Trilogy

Wed, 28 Feb 2024 01:02:00 GMT

Lobsters are a family (Nephropidae, synonym Homaridae) of marine crustaceans. They have long bodies with muscular tails and live in crevices or burrows on the sea floor. Although several other groups of crustaceans have the word "lobster" in their names, the unqualified term "lobster" generally refers to the clawed lobsters of the family Nephropidae...

Anyway this episode is about a movie called The Lobster and it has no lobsters in it whatsoever so Kabourophobes fear not. It's by Yorgos Lanthimos and it's the first episode of our self titled Existential Trilogy!

We talk about love, civilisation, social moires, you know, big picture stuff.

Get it while it's hot!

7.3 The Adventures of Baron Munchausen | Terry Gilliam's Imagination Trilogy

Wed, 14 Feb 2024 00:52:23 GMT

It's the episode everyone's been waiting for. The Tripod offices have been inundated with fan mail, asking -demanding- that we talk about this milestone in motion pictures. That's right today we're talking The Adventures of Baron Munchausen! Definitely one of the most well known and 100% not cursed movies of all time. A movie beloved by all. An episode that is sure to top the charts.

But wait, it get's better. A movie this monumental needs an expert, so the boys secured a special guest: It's Simon Harvey, a certified wine-y-boy and lover of cinema.

Tue, 30 Jan 2024 22:28:14 GMT

Imagine a world where Tripod was back with a brand new trilogy...then STOP imagining and feast your ears on the strange reality of Terry Gilliam's Imagination Trilogy! This episode, Matt and Tyrie take a trip with the Time Bandits, unravelling this hidden gem of 1981, discussing its nostalgic feel, and how kids films have changed in the past few decades.

6.3 Chasing Amy | Kevin Smith's Jersey Trilogy

Tue, 16 Jan 2024 20:00:00 GMT

On this third and final stop on their way through the Jersey Trilogy, Matt and Tyrie take a closer look at 1997's Chasing Amy. After his much-maligned Mallrats, this semi-autobiographical piece was Kevin's return to critical acclaim. However, it was not without its detractors. So how does the film stack up in modern times and also alongside Smith's filmography? Join the nerds to hear their patented hot takes as they drive out of Jersey towards the endless horizon, in whatever direction the wheel of trilogies takes/forces them.

Oof Magoof! Here it is folks. Mallrats: Proof that lightning doesn't strike twice (Sorry KS We love you!) It was a critical and financial bomb and it almost put Kevin out of work, but it has since garnered a cult following. And it also kicked started the whole cinematic universe thing. It walked so Marvel could run, and that's worth talking about. And listening to... Please?

6.1 Clerks | Kevin Smith's Jersey Trilogy

Tue, 02 Jan 2024 20:00:51 GMT

It's the start of a new year and that means the beginning of the brand new trilogy! This month, Tyrie and Matt dive into the first three films of the self-made, foul-mouthed, American auteur, Kevin Smith - all of which take place in Kevin's beloved home state of New Jersey. In this episode, Tripod makes a pit-stop at the Quick-Stop to discuss Clerks - Smith's debut, cult-classic film which projected his own monotonous, everyday reality as a convenience-store worker onto the big screen, and saw every dorm-room in America plastered with it's now famous black and white poster. The boys discuss the incredible effort and economy that went into making Clerks, the value of cultural context when viewing films of a different time, and what it feels like to love a filmmaker while not entirely loving their films. Also Tyrie is capital T - TIRED.

But will the highest grossing Christmas film of all time be undercooked? Overdone? Or perfectly plump? The boys also talk all things Cumberbatch, Illumination Studios, and wrap things up with their definitive rankings of all things Grinch!

Happy holidays everybody - we'll see you in the New Year with Kevin Smith's Jesery Trilogy, starting with Clerks!

Brace yourselves folks, because there is some cruddy audio on this one- please forward your complaints to Tyrie for recording all the way in New Zealand on a pair of crummy headphones. He's a jerk and he deserves what's coming! No we love him, almost as much as we love this crazy Trilogy.
