Welcome to Odd Trilogies, a podcast dedicated to the strange inter-connectedness of film! To us, an "odd trilogy" is any set of three films—whether bonded by story, spirit, themes, and/or shared cast & crew—that we think has an interesting angle worth digging into! One of the classic examples of a "lesser known" trilogy is that the film Oldboy is actually the second part in Park Chan-wook's "Vengeance Trilogy!" But is it a sequel? What are the other two about? How does each one deal with the concept of vengeance? THAT'S something worth exploring!
Our "trilogies" are not limited to the deliberate or canonical, like Bill & Ted or Pixar's Cars; we also curate and discuss more incidental ones—trios with unofficial or less tangible connections, like our "Odd Nutcracker" or "Rise of Snyder" trilogies! Those trilogies may be based on a commonality that we find interesting or which is significant to film culture.
Whatever the connection is, we (your hosts, Logan Sowash & Andy Carr) apply our love and knowledge of film to analyze these trilogies as whole bodies, as well as the individual films themselves. Listen and laugh with us as we dive into the never-ending pit of cinematic connectivity known as ODD TRILOGIES!

Over thirty years later, the Naked Gun films are back, this time starring Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson! Director Akiva Shaffer (The Lonely Island, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping) brings Police Squad into the modern era with this sequel-reboot about Sgt. Frank Drebin's son.
Ahead of the episode covering the original Naked Gun trilogy, Logan & Andy team up with Police Squad trainee and friend of the pod Nick Rogers (Midwest Film Journal) to discuss the latest film in the screwball comedy franchise. Does it do the originals justice? Is Neeson an authentic Drebin? Any good beavers in this one? Surely some questions will be answered in this review of 2025's The Naked Gun!
