This week on the show, we’re talking about Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’s score by Dario Marianelli, lack of pop tracks, and then chatting a lot about how the lore and magic of the live-action Ghostbusters world is expanded by this film. First up, Troy and Chris walk through some of their favorite score cues and explore some of the new cues heard in the film. There’s a lot of new avenues explored and great ways of furthering Elmer Bernstein’s original music throughout. Then, the boys talk about Nadeem’s character in the film and what doors he opens moving forward, which then naturally turns to an existential discussion where we talk about what it means to become one with the fabric of the universe.

All that and more, plus a few more of your voicemails — and we kept it under an hour! Can you believe it?

From Ray and Egon’s rift, to the time period between Ghostbusters II and that rift occurring and beyond, here are the untold stories that we feel are worthy of being told (and in some cases, the medium we think that they should be presented).
