#1204 - "Answering the Call Ten Years Later" - July 20, 2026

Hard to believe that it’s been ten years since the release of Ghostbusters: Answer the Call. And, while this film has run the gamut of discourse for those last ten years, there are still things to be said about the film all this time later. Why was it such an important next step in the franchise, why did it have a thankless task of following in the footsteps in giants as result of it, and with the advantage of time and distance — what is one thing we now wish they would have done (and is the recent success of Katie Dippold’s Widow’s Bay a taste of an alternate universe’s success)? All these things, plus some off-topic documentary chat and a whole lot of Troy complaining about how hot it is in this week’s show!
