After a lifetime of waiting, then just a few months of waiting, and then hang on, back to waiting for over a year, then finally back to waiting a few months, nope, waiting more months, then weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds... Ghostbusters: Afterlife is here. While Troy is still on sabbatical, trying to return an ancient idol to a museum or deciphering prophetic riddles at the Vatican or some such nonsense, Chris has friend of the show Kevin Lim on to help him parse a little bit of what they saw in their first viewing. And if listening to two Ghostbusters nerds chatter way for an hour isn't your thing - dude, you know what we are here, hours of chatter - Kevin brought some treats from The Kevin and Sonia Morning Show on Kiss Radio Vancouver; Mckenna Grace herself! We are spoiler free in the first part, including Kevin's talk with Mckenna, and then we get downright spoilery in the second half. The heroism of Egon, suspiciously high-powered yet underutilized co-stars, who cried when, and what Ms. Grace has to say about a sequel. Let's go!
