#1102 - "Remembrances, Recaps, and Dormancy" - June 16, 2025
This week on the podcast, we’re remembering Harris Yulin, recapping Ghostbusters Day 2025, and talking about a GBFans thread asking if Ghostbusters has gone into dormancy once again. First up, Troy and Chris pay a little tribute to Ghostbusters II’s Judge Stephen “The Hammer” Wexler, played by the incredible character actor Harris Yulin, who passed last week at the age of 87. Then in somewhat of a news segment, the boys recap all the things that were revealed at Ghostbusters Day 2025 including Jason Reitman, McKenna Grace, and Carrie Coon showing up to meet and greet the fans, glowing Hasbro offerings, Crocs, and the Ghostbusters Give Back initiative, a great way for fan franchises to see their good deeds marked by the official Ghost Corps headquarters. Then, in the second half of the show, we ask each other a question that seems to be taxing our favorite message board haunt: has Ghostbusters gone dormant again? And do kids these days even know what dormancy of an IP is? Yeah, we’re old. That comes up too. But doesn’t it always?

#1016 - "A Crossripy Thanksgiving" - November 25, 2024
This week, we’re gathered around the table and an ungodly amount of delicious food to talk about all the things we haven’t over the last two months: Hasbro’s Haslab Ecto-1, Mondo’s Real Ghostbusters figures, Waxwork Records’ Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire vinyl soundtrack release, a Cleanin’ Up the Town book, and so much more! Once we’re done with all of those courses, we’ll get to the dessert that we saved for last: is Dan Akyroyd hanging up Ray Stantz’s skates? Chris and Troy don’t think so, but we’ll do our best to decrypt his encoded message!

This week on the show, we’re changing the world again - and this time it’s Ghostbusters II! What one thing would we change about the original 1989 film if we were given the opportunity? And how would that trickle down to things that happened in the future? Don’t worry, we have multiple answers this week to fuel the discussion. Also we’re talking about that weird “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire - The Spenglers” goof on Amazon and we’re playing your change the world voicemails!
