THE SCI-FI PODCAST EP 25: Ghostbusters (1984) vs Ghostbusters (2016)

G v G
Welcome to
 The SciFi Podcasta wretched hive of scum and villainy a bi-weekly podcast focused on in-depth discussion of all things Science Fiction. The SciFi Podcast features three hosts—Mattroid, Solo, Brain, and Station!—and frequent guests. Each episode we look at a science fiction theme or franchise and take the discussion where no show has gone before.

Who you gonna call? The question should probably best be posed differently: When you call the ghostbusters, will you use a payphone or a smartphone? In this spooky episode, Brain, Station! and Mattroid discuss the differences between the original Ghostbusters movie and the recently released, female-fronted version. Which do you prefer and why? Let us know in the comments section.

In celebration of this weeks BluRay release of Mad Max: Fury Road, the great Station! leaves the fellas on their own for a War Boys Night Out (or is it a Guys Afternoon In?) when SpaceWolf returns and special guest Jonasty makes his debut for a no-holds-barred discussion of the post-apocalyptic Mad Max franchise and the high-octane newest film in particular. What a lovely day!
