Now, Ross is taking him film by film through the movies he sadly missed (or smartly avoided) until now. Join us as we look at studio comedies from the late 90s and early 2000s. Week by week, we will tackle one (or two) films as Tripp tries to figure out what made them so funny and Ross explains the context Tripp avoided.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-10T14:18:40.953783+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-tripp-through-comedy-7045072"},"episode":{"title":"Threequels: Austin Powers in \"Goldmember\" and Friday After Next","slug":"threequels-austin-powers-in-goldmember-and-friday-after-next","published_at":"2026-06-18T06:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-tripp-through-comedy-7045072/threequels-austin-powers-in-goldmember-and-friday-after-next","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-tripp-through-comedy-7045072","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/threequels-austin-powers-in-goldmember-and-friday-after-next--72574659","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72574659/108d980b_c7ab_56e9_9898_437e6a325332.mp3","summary":"Our exit today has us saving the world and saving our Christmas presents. This week, we are looking at a pair of threequels to successful franchises. First, we are going to talk about Austin Powers In Goldmember, written by Mike Myers and Michael McCullers and directed by Jay Roach. Next, we will talk about Friday After Next, written by Ice Cube and directed by Marcus Raboy. Both films have so far been the last films in their respective franchises, despite them being fairly commercially successful.Along the way, we talk about how these films fit into their series, what makes a good threequel, and whether or not we will get a fourquel to either. Plus, the MTV movie awards, Christmas threequels, 80s horror, Mike Myers, Beyonce, ensembles, stale jokes, and lots of potty humor!Theme music by Jonworthymusic.Powered by RiversideFM. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CFF Films⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with Ross and friends. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies We've Covered on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Movies Recommended on the Show⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Letterboxd.","meta_description":"Our exit today has us saving the world and saving our Christmas presents.
