#906 - "Whooaaaooaa Something's Coming to Town" - November 6, 2023
Hey everyone! There’s a lot going on, right? Between Hasbro’s latest HasLab, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, Rise of the Ghost Lord and a tease from the official Ghostbusters channels that something is coming? You know that means we have to podcast, right? It’s a given. Must. Join Troy and Chris this week as they talk about the tease and what it could mean, is it a trailer? Is it a poster? Is it a title reveal for the new Ghostbusters film? Is it all of the above? After that, the boys talk Hasbro’s latest amazing crowdfunding effort that promises a Ghost Trap and PKE Meter for $300, and we’ve been logging some hours on Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed ECTO EDITION, so we’ll throw in a few thoughts. All that plus some in an all-new episode of the Crossrip!
#637 - "Hasbro PulseCon Round-Up" - September 28, 2020
This week on the show, we’re recapping all the goings-on at Hasbro’s virtual PulseCon Ghostbusters panels: from Ernie Hudson’s walk down memory lane to two new product reveals. The Ecto-1 Plasma Series Ecto-1 came (and went) on the same day it was announced, and a Real Ghostbusters retro GhostPopper was reissued through Walmart stores and (as of this printing) is still available for purchase. Aside from that, what did we glean from the panel and the interviewees. And what does this panel reveal a bit about Hasbro’s focus in terms of demographic, or more specifically some of the challenges that they’re facing with Ghostbusters? All of these topics, plus a whole lot of talk about Jason Reitman’s walk around the Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters Afterlife is here and ready for your ears!
