It’s a jam-packed catch-up episode and the first of many more to come for this busy March season. Grab a snack, eat it out of your new popcorn bowl of choice, and join us won’t you?

This week on the show, we’re taking a deep dive into a stack of books inside Egon’s farmhouse, talking about Empire Magazine, bobbleheads, talking about upside down proton packs and a whole lot more! First up some Cleanin’ Up the Town news including the domestic release hitting this week and Randy Edelman scoring the sequel “Too Hot to Handle.” Then we’re talking about the latest Ghostbusters Afterlife news including new film score heard in a Muncher cookie video, Empire Magazine comments upcoming, Baskin Robbins tie-ins, and a huge deep dive into the a pile of books that the Central Oklahoma Ghostbusters spent a great deal of time identifying and compiling - and Chris has a few thoughts as to what the reading material on the side table has to say about how Egon’s been spending his time.

#733 - "Ghostbusters II Score Deep Dive" - August 23, 2021
This week on the show, catching up on the news and then taking a deep dive into the newly officially released Ghostbusters II score by Randy Edelman (and as a bonus, our first listen to the Ghostbusters Afterlife score). First up in the news, a merch round-up of biblical proportions: Hasbro Plasma Series Wave 2 figures are hitting shelves, as are family sized boxes of Ghostbusters cereal, tons of halloween costume offerings, and a whole lot more. No, we won’t talk about those images that circulated around the internet last week and we’ll tell you why. Then in the second half of the show, we’re diving into the first listen to Rob Simonsen’s score to Ghostbusters Afterlife as heard in a promotional piece on the official Ghostbusters social platforms and using that as a way into talking about Sony Masterworks’ outstanding release of the Ghostbusters II score. After 32 years of waiting, we have a clean and official listen to the score which answers some questions, opens up a few new puzzles and more. Join us as we talk through some of the tracks, lay one or two of them over the film to see where they may have gone, and a whole lot more!

Technical difficulties aren't going to get us down - this week on the Ghostbusters Interdimensional Crossrip podcast, we're building stages 16 and 17 of the Eaglemoss Hero Collector subscription Ecto-1 model kit. And while we do, we're talking about the latest Ghostbusters Afterlife news including film scoring happening on the Sony Pictures lot, Adam Savage working on a pair of Ecto-Goggles, Element Ghostbusters skateboards hitting virtual shelves, Urban Outfitters and Joshua Vides Ghostbusters-themed clothing on sale, and what does Coming To America 2 going to Amazon Prime mean for Afterlife? And yes, we attempted video this go-round and had a massive technical failure - but next time, get ready for all the split-screen building you can handle!
#610 - "Composing Ourselves" - March 16, 2020
We know there’s a lot going on in the world right now, but we’re going to do our best to keep things as normal here on the ol’ podcast to help everyone escape for just a few minutes. This week on the show, talking about the reveal of Rob Simonsen composing the Ghostbusters: Afterlife score, merch news including perhaps the end of the line for Ghostbusters Playmobil tie-ins, and in the second half of the show, we’re talking IDW Comics’ Ghostbusters Year One Issue #2!
