It’s the end of the Ghostbusters World as we know it. On this week’s show, talking about the end of the mobile AR game, a wave of new fan films, Spirit Halloween offerings, and some additional merch including bobbleheads and custom Real Ghostbusters Ecto-Glow figures. Then, in the second half of the show, humor us for another thought experiment on the inconsequential questions we have from the original films. All that plus some thoughts on our poor fellow fan in Canada who received a note on their windshield because of their Ecto-1 replica license plate on the show!
