150. Who You Gonna Call for 150?
Manage episode 514774353 series 2287379
It’s Episode 150 — a nice round number, and a perfect excuse to celebrate with another trip down the aisles of cinematic nostalgia!We kick things off chatting about the Toronto Blue Jays vs. Seattle Mariners series, looking at what went right, what went sideways, and why being a Jays fan sometimes feels like living in a sports-themed Twilight Zone.Then, it’s time to flip over to Channel 2 Day Rental News, where the stories hit harder than a Mario fireball. We celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the North American release of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) — the console that basically raised a generation of gamers. We also talk about X-Men ’97 scoring an early Season 3 renewal (and the possibility of Seasons 4 and 5!), news of a live-action Jetsons movie starring Jim Carrey, and a head-scratching update about a Magic 8-Ball TV series — because apparently no toy is safe from adaptation.In Previously Viewed, we cross the streams for one of the all-time greats — Ghostbusters (1984). We revisit the classic, share what still makes it lightning-in-a-bottle perfect, and gush over why bustin’ still makes us feel good.So whether you grew up blowing on NES cartridges, quoting Egon, or just wondering who you’re gonna call — this one’s packed with nostalgia, laughs, and a few questionable predictions from the Magic 8-Ball.🎧 Subscribe & follow 2 Day Rental for your weekly fix of retro talk, movie love, and dad-approved geek culture.
