For Spooky Week, we’ve picked the spooky 1984 comedy Ghostbusters, full of spooky slime monsters and spooky demon dogs and spooky sexual harassment! Join Bill Murray, Sigourney Weaver, and Dan Aykroyd as they battle the gubmint and sugary treats while spookily foretelling dot-coms, prison privatization, and the death of print.(Note: This podcast was recorded before news of the all-female Ghostbusters reboot broke.)(Warning: This podcast contains the Guinness World Record holder for Longest Riff On How No One Reads Books Anymore.)I want to be able to say one day, in real life, with relevance and confidence, “I’ve seen every form of combustion known to man.”Podcasters: Robert, Tim, Sam, Zuul Dana00:00 Intro and Memories11:07 Rapid Recap14:52 Books and Other Special Effects22:43 The Creepiest Part28:40 The Sounds and Sights of the ’80s34:40 Humor and Time42:20 The VoteNext Week’s AssignmentBruce Willis.
