- Reel Quick | A Working ManTripod is back with another of Reel Quick! Hot off the rails of the Denzel Train Trilogy, Matt and Tyrie dive into the latest blue-collar action offering, A Working Man, where the moon is huge and the casinos are swampy. The boys recount their unusual viewing experience, and swing their sledge hammers at a film which - despite the title - didn't really work.

1 hr 50 min - 22.2 Snowpiercer | Bong Joon Ho's 'What If' TrilogyWhat if...train? That's the question this week, listeners! As they pull in to the 2nd station of the 'What If' trilogy, tail-section hicks Matt and Tyrie talk all things Snowpiercer - Bong Joon-Ho's frigid adaptation about a big-ass locomotive and one hell of a journey! P.S. - Sorry we (mostly Matt) mispronounce director Bong's name on occasion - we have since been educated and we will. Be. Better.

2 hr 32 min - 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!
