Starfish Language: Orkel, an alien Odd Squad agent, speaks in an unidentified language to other alien Odd Squad agents in one episode. We don't get a translation for what Orkel is saying, but Oprah and Odeo both seem to understand the language to some extent.

Team Spirit: This is the reason why Agent Ooooooo won Agent of the Week. For help capturing a villainess known as Celebration Cheryl, Ooooooo's precinct reached out to another precinct for assistance. Although the exact details of the team-up are never given, Cheryl is eventually captured. Odd Squad Activity Day, where agents partake in various activities and bond with their coworkers, also has this trope in mind.

Instantly Proven Wrong: At the beginning of Broadcast Three, Oprah reassures listeners that in spite of the repeated attacks on the Big Office, everything is all right and there's nothing to worry about. Oxford, an agent of the Creature Care department, then enters the room and delivers the news that the room Oprah and Odeo are in is the Invisible Dragon Room.

Worldbuilding: Each episode features a different aspect of the Big Office Oprah and Odeo are located in (out of seven that are placed around the world) that has never been shown onscreen, such as the cafeteria. Broadcast Two implies that Odd Squad is not an insanely-rich organization, and has to be delegated to raising money to get new rooms built in precincts' Headquarters.

Impeded Communication: Weather Heather's indoor snowstorm causes the call between Oprah and Agent Ooooooo to be cut out before the latter can finish her story, as the cold temperatures cause the equipment to begin malfunctioning and the wires to freeze. Oprah tries to give a message to Odd Squad agents listening to Broadcast One, telling them that she wants the organization's best agents to help her and Odeo figure out the cause of the odd weather, but the transmission dies before she can complete it.

Kansas City Shuffle: Subverted. Weather Heather attacks many different rooms and plants Red Herrings in order to throw Oprah and Odeo off of her trail, using the power of unpredictability. This throws them off for a while because they're not sure which pattern she's working in, and the general rule of thumb is that all villains, even the ones who use confusing tactics, work in some kind of a pattern. Eventually, Weather Heather is revealed to have been working in a pattern all along, attacking only square-shaped rooms. At first, one might think that this is irony at work...up until she reveals that she threw a square-themed villain named Sammy Square under the bus to make Odd Squad think he was the culprit and not her, because he loves predicting the weather. This ends up failing because Sammy Square is never even considered to be the culprit in the first place.

Don't Wake the Sleeper: In Broadcast Four, Oprah and Odeo have to work around a slumbering invisible dragon that they aren't aware of until a Creature Care agent named Oxford points it out to them. Luckily, there's a way to put it back to sleep if it does wake up — giving it half of a pizza. This works when Odeo wakes it up the first time by playing an odd noise, but nearly fails a second time when Threesie Three-Three eats a slice. The third time, on the other hand...

comment
Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: Buried within the compliments Coach O gives the Big O in Broadcast Two is "defense wins championships". In Broadcast Four, Threesie Three-Three lists her three favorite reasons why she loves the number three — it has three points on it like a triangle, it's an odd number that's horizontally symmetrical, and it allows batters in baseball to strike out, which she loves. There are many instructions agents must follow in exact order to lose stripes acquired by being bitten by a zebrafly — make the sound of a car having trouble starting, tap-dance (but no rhythm tapping), make a funny noise, and call someone on the phone to tell them you care about them. Subverted when Oxford reveals that there is a fifth step, which is to play the tuba with your nostril. Broadcast Seven forces Oprah and Odeo to relocate to the outdoors to record, where the birds are chirping, the sun is shining...and an Odd Squad delivery truck is making a delivery.

Adaptational Dumbass: Oprah seems to have gotten a bit of a knock in IQ points in regards to catching the villain attacking the Big Office. In Broadcast Two, she jumps to conclusions and decides on one villain after scouring through a database of every villain in the immediate vicinity of the office, even though she has little data to go off of (something that Obie points out). She's aware of her idiocy, but doesn't bother to think things through any and pours confidence into her hasty actions, which causes her to fail time and time again and fire blame at villains who aren't the culprit.

Literal Metaphor: The segment "Spilling the Beans" is accompanied by a sound effect of beans being spilled. Likewise, when Oprah asks Threesie Three-Three to spill the beans and confess that she is behind the odd attacks on the Big Office, she spills Oprah's actual beans on the table. And at the end of Broadcast Four, Odeo spills some more beans on the table.

I Have No Idea What I'm Doing: Oort goes up into space to report on the oddness that the Odd Squad Space Division battles. Unfortunately, he doesn't have much of a knowledge of space to begin with and thinks things like a lack of air, a lack of gravity, and the Moon looking bigger than what he's used to seeing on Earth constitute as oddness that needs to be solved. Oprah has to tell him that he's basically just describing normal occurrences that happen in space, and he ends up dropping his request for agents to help him and decides to head back to Earth in the Odd Squad spacecraft.

 Odd Squadcast (Podcast) / int_927b2f11
comment
The Bus Came Back: Oona returns in Broadcast One and Broadcast Five to deliver gadget recall notices, with her last physical speaking appearance being in "Odds and Ends". Olivia Presti, her actor, provides her voice for both cameos. Orson also returns in Broadcast One to give a message to all the baby agents that make up Odd Squad. Like Oona, his last physical speaking appearance was in "Odds and Ends". Coach O, who was last seen in "Slides and Ladders", returns in Broadcast Two to provide health tips, and later in Broadcast Seven to give more health tips. Delivery Doug, who was last seen in Season 2's "The Deposit Slip-Up", returns in Broadcast Five to advertise his business. This would be one month prior to his grand return in the "Teach a Man to Ice Fish" episode of Odd Squad, and then his official Put on a Bus moment in "End of the Road". Red Fred, who was a character in "Odd Squad in the Shadows" who was mentioned but not seen, makes his vocal debut in Broadcast Six as another villain Oprah pins the attacks on.

comment
Continuity Nod: "Dawn of the Read" introduced the Flying-Book-inator, which defeats Flying Books and stops them from flying. Broadcast One introduces the Un-Flying-Book-inator, which seems to accomplish the same thing but has the name slightly altered. When looking for the culprit behind the odd attacks in Broadcast Two, Oprah lists off Symmetric Al, Quarter Quinn, and Circle Sue as potential suspects. None of them fit the bill. The segment "On This Day", introduced in Broadcast Three, might be a nod to the Odd Moments in History segments from Season 1 of the show, which were narrated by Olive and detailed important events in Odd Squad history. Speaking of Olive, both her and Olympia were Odd Squad historians in personality only and never in name, as both demonstrated a surprising knowledge of the organization's workings and history. Broadcast Three has Oprah naming an actual Odd Squad historian in name, Professor O, who explains more about the badge phone. In Broadcast Six, Obie gives almost the same "look on the bright side" pep talk Omar did in "Odd Beginnings: Part 1" — that is to say, she tells Oprah to look on the bright side, and when Oprah asks her if there's more she has to say, she responds that there isn't, and that Oprah should just look on the bright side. Two of the rooms Obie, Odeo and Oprah have to cross to catch the Big Bad are the Volcano Room and the Pots and Pans Room. The end of Broadcast Seven has Oprah using Olympia's, and later Orla's, Catchphrase from OddTube.

Rule of Three
 Odd Squadcast (Podcast) / int_a6cda066
comment
Rule of Three: Odeo is very fond of this trope to the point where it becomes a Running Gag. In Broadcast One, he repeats "a gadget recall" thrice, the third time being just for fun. Broadcast Two has him repeating "odd weather report" three times because "I love my job". Broadcast Four has him triple-checking the Odd Squad Marching Band Room for any invisible dragons that might be lurking around. He also repeats "creature report" thrice because he loves saying those words. In Broadcast Five, he repeats "creature report" thrice, but this time, it's on the basis that it feels important to say. Broadcast Six has him repeating "odd weather report" thrice because "it's what I do". The villainess Threesie Three-Three pretty much runs on this trope. She has to repeat things thrice and often skips by threes when committing odd crimes.

Development Hell: The Odd Squadcast was initially set to premiere in the summer of 2020, but got pushed back to November. It then got pushed back again from November 25 to December 2nd, and although two episodes were set to premiere each week, the airing practice was abandoned after Broadcast Four, and Broadcast Five aired the following week. To make matters worse, Broadcast Six and Broadcast Seven were both leaked a week early on the same day, being put on the PBS Kids website before their proper debut.

Viewers Are Morons: Many people who listen to this podcast are probably well aware of what Odd Squad is, both the show and the organization. Similarly, they are also familiar with aspects of the organization such as gadget usage and tube-riding. That doesn't stop the expositional Odd Squad Bylaw 437-76 from coming into play any, however, which states that "we must use every opportunity to remind agents about Odd Squad details". Oprah points out the worthlessness of the reminder in Broadcast One at one point.

Hostile Show Takeover: Invoked by Oprah, who allows Threesie Three-Three to host the Odd Squadcast as an apology for wrongfully accusing her. Odeo, on the other hand, doesn't like it, but goes along with it anyway and allows her to talk about the number three. Invoked again in Broadcast Six with Red Fred, who, like Threesie, is wrongfully accused by Oprah of being the culprit behind the attacks, and gets to host the show in her stead as a way to make up for her mistake. Odeo isn't too fond of letting Fred host the show either, but he doesn't protest against it and seems to express his disapproval by playing the sound of a buzzer after every red thing Fred lists.

Hilarious in Hindsight: Obie being Oprah's most prominent assistant is rather amusing following the events of "Odd Off The Press", where Orpita was in the role and ascended to become Oprah's Number Two once again, but in a higher position. Alien Odd Squad agents might have been canonized here as living somewhere in the depths of space, but "Why Did the Chicken Cross the Dimension?" had something going with what they looked like and how ingrained they were into Earth society. In addition, whereas Orkel speaks a Starfish Language here, the aliens from "Why Did the Chicken Cross the Dimension?" speak perfect English.

Underwater Base: An Odd Squad precinct exists over 1000 feet below sea level, where a Headquarters is situated under the order of the Big O. It is led by Underwater Ms. O, whose agents are blue whales instead of human beings.

History Repeats: Agents may be solving cases at exponential rates, but that doesn't stop oddness levels from reaching all-time highs — meaning that Odd Squad's work is quite literally never done.

Water Is Air: The underwater Headquarters that Underwater Ms. O rules over is no different than any Headquarters situated underground. The only difference is that her Headquarters is mainly populated (and guarded) by blue whales, and she refers to agents who live deep under the Earth's surface as "land-agents".

Literal-Minded: Oprah turns the mic over to an agent named Oval, who won a Jellybeans-In-A-Jar Contest, for a quick word. All she says is "a quick word" before the mic goes back to Oprah.

Weather Dissonance: In Broadcast Six, Ozone reports on an "all-weather-nado", where all four seasons occur at the same time in the same location. Going by his location, where he reports what season is in each direction, he appears to be smack-dab in the middle of the storm.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business
 Odd Squadcast (Podcast) / int_e83f211c
comment
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: It's telling that Oprah, an agent who was once infamous for her Hair-Trigger Temper as a Tiny Tyrannical Girl, is actively trying to make Odeo tempt fate by making him try to get her enraged, only for it to not work. He goes for the tried-and-true tactic of "we're out of juice boxes", to which she barely breaks a sweat...before asking if they are actually still stocked with juice, causing Odeo to hastily reassure her that there is still juice available. Being The Alcoholic, it falls in line with her character, but the entire scene is quite a change from how she was depicted in Season 1 and shows off her Character Development as a more mellow and level-headed leader.

comment
One-Steve Limit: Averted. One segment on the podcast is called "Odd Squad: Odds and Ends", which was a name used for a television event that premiered on PBS Kids and comprised the two-parter Season 2 finale, "Who Is Agent Otis?" and "Odds and Ends". Also averted for Professor O from Broadcast Three, whose title is shared with another Professor O from "Invasion of the Body Switchers". Barely averted in Broadcast Five. Don't confuse Giggleglorps for Grizzlegorps or Wrigglegorps, both creatures of which appeared in "Can You Wrangle It?" a year after the Odd Squadcast concluded. All three share similar features, with the Giggleglorp eating tennis balls and being neon orange in color, while the Grizzlegorp is yellow and the Wrigglegorp is blue. Downplayed with Threesie Three-Three, who has the same first name as Threesie Louise-ie but not the same last name.

No Peripheral Vision: Due to being sleep-deprived, Oasis ends up walking right into a bookshelf. A map of one of the Big Offices — specifically, the same one where the podcast takes place — ends up falling out, which allows her to crack the pattern and find out who the culprit is.

Mix-and-Match Critters: The Zebrafly is a hybrid odd creature, taking the traits of a zebra and a fly (what exact species is never said, but going by the other creature in the equation, it being a horsefly is very likely) and having the ability to bite people, which causes them to gain black-and-white stripes like that of a zebra.

 Odd Squadcast (Podcast) / int_f66dfb4b
comment
His Name Really Is "Barkeep": Chef O, introduced in Broadcast Four, seems to have "Chef O" as an actual name and not a title of any kind. This puts her on a contrast with others in the Food and Beverage department like Oksana and Olly, who did not bear the title of "Chef O".
