Things go off the rails when Pete and Bryan try to talk about the 1984 classic Ghostbusters.  They discuss how anti-government the movie is.  What kind of creep is Peter Venkman?  What was Sigourney Weaver doing between Alien and Ghostbusters?  Pete has a bunch of unsourced Ghostbusters trivia...and a classic credit check.  All this and the half of the episode where they forgot they were talking about Ghostbusters on an all-new epi...

Join Pete and Bryan for a discussion about the pre-postmodern should be classic Wes Craven's New Nightmare.  Who plays themselves the best?  How does the movie play to someone with no memory of the original A Nightmare on Elm Street?  Why was Scream a smash hit just two years later while this was the poorest box office return in the Nightmare franchise?  All this and very little more.
