It may be election day as we record the podcast, but rest assured, Extraplasm 101 is all paranormal and zero percent political, beyond our advocacy and love for Mooglie! Eric Christenson of the Mooglie Fan Club joins the podcast as co-host for a run down and discussion of the latest Ghostbusters headlines, including updates on Hasbro Pulse and Mondo’s campaigns to bring more Ghostbusters toys to every household, Ray Parker Jr, Bruce Springsteen and Mooglie shaped swimming pools funded by royalty checks, Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed’s new “No Ghostly Felons Left Untrapped” gameplay, and more!All jokes aside: you will find no actual discussion of politics in this week’s episode despite being recorded on Election Night in the U.S. so if you need a palate cleanser, plug in your earbuds or fire up your Bluetooth speaker and join us for a fun chat!

This episode we're revisiting a classic Extraplasm episode from 2022 and introducing some new details and updates to an ongoing story! Back in 2022, Episode 10: Ghost Stories of a Haunted Firehouse covered the history of Fire Station 23 in Los Angeles - better known to many of us as the interior of the Ghostbusters Headquarters in the first two movies. Nearly two years later, Jim's revisiting the episode for a remastered experience with improved audio, better editing, and -- most importantly -- an update on the effort of LA Department of Cultural Affairs and the Bureau of Engineering to convert the firehouse into a youth arts center. And of course, the episode opens as usual with new Ghostbusters headlines. Whether you're a newcomer to Extraplasm or a long term listener, there's something new for you in this week's episode!
