This week on the show, it’s the week before Ghostbusters Day and all through the house everyone’s trying a soda from FYE - - something something that rhymes with house. That’s right, it’s a little slow leading up to the fun to come next week. So what are we to do? We’re breaking out some voicemails, talking about some fan events and announcements, and talking about the sodas and cereals available to us all (or at least some of us at the moment).

We’re turning five this week! Five years to the day ago, the Crossrip became a podcast! Yay us! To celebrate, we’re wrapping up Ghostbusters Day and all that was revealed then having a few of our favorite clip moments from the past five years. First up, Ghostbusters Day was a little delayed due to things happening around the world and was celebrated last week. The subdued marketing day gave us a few product announcements like Campfire Marshmallows bringing Stay Puft brand to shelves next year and LEGO Unboxed getting a Ghostbusters makeover. But the big news was a behind the scenes featurette for Ghostbusters Afterlife that showed at drive-in theaters. Troy and Chris dissect as much as possible to glean from what was shown. Then in the second half of the show, our favorite moments: meeting new friends, talking to icons, even crossing the border for toys, all of that and more on a jam-packed show!

It’s certainly a different kind of Ghostbusters Day this year, but we’re completely okay with the marketing hype being postponed until a later date. In the meantime, we’re building stages 9 and 10 of our Eaglemoss Hero Collector Ecto-1 subscription set. This week we’re working on carburetors and air filters and there’s a few tricky stages ahead. And while we build, we’re talking about Ghostbusters Day’s postponement, the potential of Josh Gad’s “Reunited Apart” coming at a to-be-determined date, the recent discovery that a new trailer and a potential Fathom exclusive might be on the horizon, and some incredible print offerings from the Containment Unit group out of San Diego.
