- 6.1 Clerks | Kevin Smith's Jersey TrilogyIt'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.

1 hr 32 min - 5.3 The Grinch (2018) | The Grinchmas Trilogy
On this third and final day of Grinchmas, Matt and Tyrie try their darndest to carve into the roast beast that is The Grinch, 2018. 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!

1 hr 32 min - 4.3 Once Upon a Time in America | Sergio Lione's Once Upon a Time Trilogy
All good things must end. It's true of a Gangster's rise to fame AND of this trilogy! This week the friends swap their dusters and big irons for fedoras and tommy guns as they navigate their way through this epic of gangster cinema. They also bid farewell to the Maestro Sergio Leone, who would never make another film. And of course they spin the cruel and indifferent wheel of trilogies. Tune in to find out what they'll dish up next week.

2 hr 22 min - 4.2 Duck, You Sucker! | Sergio Lione's Once Upon a Time Trilogy
SHON, SHON, SHON! Brothers and sisters, the revolution is upon us! This week, Matt and Tyrie saddle up with the two Johns on their quest to free Mexico from a brutal regime. The friends unpack the surprising nuance and cutting message of one of Leone's least heralded works, as well as the incredible scope, score and cinematography that makes the film sing. But most importantly, they talk about Mr Waternoose and the indelible mark he left of cinema. Tune in next week as the boys go where the two Johns never could - America - and call curtains on this expansive trilogy.

Ye-haw! Happy new trilogy day everybody! This week, Tyrie and Matt are back to uncover Sergio Leone's 2nd unofficial trilogy (and last three films) of his esteemed career. The boys discuss the Italian maestro's scolding hot takes on the mythic grandeur of the old west, some bizarre behinds-the-scenes stories from old cinema, and the perfect pacing of this slow-burn cowboy classic. Oh...and that pitch perfect soundtrack of course.

Ooooo weee this ep is HOT! The boys are going out with a bang with 1997's Face/Off - the final instalment of the Cage Uncaged Trilogy! Matt and Tyrie are joined by their friend, former media studies teacher and all-round movie buff, Brendan Carroll, for his take on all things Cage, Travolta, and 90s-era action films.

Buckle up your butts folks! Tyrie and Matt get airborne for the second instalment of the Cage Uncaged trilogy...CON-AIR! The friends discuss the behind-the-scenes, machismo hell-scape of this picture, whether Cage's Southern drawl is perfect or downright offensive, and which of the many wise-cracking government agents would have gotten court-martialled after the events of this film. Tune in next week for this trilogy's exciting conclusion, and until then...Cy-Onara.

1 hr 42 min - 3.1 The Rock | Nic Cage's Uncaged Trilogy
Matt and Tyrie are back with a brand new trilogy and boy is it HOT! This week they boys dive into the filmography of The Mad Nouveau Shaman himself, The California Klaus Kinski, the one the only, NICOLAS CAGE! He won audiences hearts in Moonstruck and he blew them away in Leaving Las Vegas, now hot off his Oscar win, Cage stars in the most 90's action movie of all time: THE ROCK!
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.
