February 25, 2025 Reel Quick: Anora
Welcome to the very first Reel Quick, a new monthly mini-series where Matt and Tyrie chat about a newly released film that (hopefully) has some relevance to the trilogy they just covered! After the doomed yearning of Wong Kar-wai's Love Trilogy, Sean Baker's Anora felt like the perfect way to cap off a month of troubled romantic entanglements. Plus, it's just in time for the Oscars! Enjoy folks!

February 18, 2025 21.3 In the Mood for Love | The Love Trilogy
In the mood for pod? Well good, cos the boys are back with what Tyrie dubs one of the greatest films of the 21st century - In the Mood for Love. To take on this behemoth of cinema, writer and all-round smart guy Arden Baker elevates the conversation by unpacking the nuance of the films translation, historical context and of course, those knock-out dresses! Enjoy the yearning folks.

February 11, 2025 21.2 Happy Together | The Love Trilogy
The second episode of 2025 is here and what a whopper it is. Not only are the boys talking about one of the most celebrated films in queer cinema history, Happy Together (1997), they're also joined by a special guest- no a VERY special guest: Simon Harvey. Last time he joined Tripod, the show got a massive bump in ratings, can lightning strike twice? Hopefully it can.

Anyway, in this episode you can learn more about the free flowing creative process of Wong Kar-Wai and the hidden meaning of this amazing film.

February 04, 2025 21.1 Chungking Express | The Love Trilogy
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! These movies aren't about love at all! At least not the cute and cuddly way Hollywood would have you view it! Enter, Hong-Kong legend, Wong Kar-wai and his revolutionary take on love, loneliness and loss. This week, it's Chungking express...which is WAAY better than the Polar Express just in case you were wondering! Did you miss us?

December 11, 2024 20.3 A Christmas Carol | The Uncanny Trilogy
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!

Ahoy listeners! It's that time of the week again! And guess what? Tasman is back by popular demand! This episode the boys delve deep into the English languages very first epic poem and it's ill fated film adaptation. What's this got to do with Christmas? Tune in to find out!

November 26, 2024 20.1 The Polar Express | The Uncanny Trilogy
Oh we got it HOT HOT! Matt and Tyrie are kicking off their 20th trilogy with a scolding mug of hot chocolate and plenty of hot takes too! As is tradition for their annual Christmas trilogy, the boys are once again joined by Tyrie's twin brother, Tasman, as they attempt to unpack the 2004 holiday classic(?), and first ever completely mo-cap film, Robert Zemekis' The Polar Express.
Volume low on this one listeners...the guys scream an awful lot in this one.
