Just caught up with all episode in the last few days and it’s a really fun listen.
Nice to hear multi sided discussions about GB’s all in good spirits.
Looking forward to more.

The 30 min format is fantastic, no time for blabbing! Segments and commentary are thoughtful and to-the-point. As an American, it’s always fun you hear the British accents and slang. I’ve listened to every episode. Dean is the man.

United States3 years ago - Entertaining, Funny and a Geeky Guilty Pleasure
I love a good old podcast, especially as I spend a lot of time driving. Just so happen to be a Ghostbusters Geek, those two things make this a match made in heaven. GB fans putting on a great podcast for GB fans with comedy, insight and daft humour. Big thumbs up from me. 👍🏻
Apple Podcasts5Ste RobbinsUnited Kingdom3 years ago - Not the best
No real direction in terms of talking points, I’ve listened to the first two episodes and I’ve come away from them not really entertained. The AI “Dan” is also gimmicky and gets old pretty fast unfortunately.
