It's Veterans Day and to all you veterans, we want to say we appreciate the heck out of you! On this episode, 4-year-old Alistair and his Dad tackle Ivan Reitman's Ghostbusters (1984) by request of the veteran to whom we are closest: Alistair's Uncle Kyle. A surprising lot of confusion ensues. Why do they look different from the cartoon? Who's the Marshmallow Man? Who's Gozer? Does this pole work? Which one's Ray? Is he the big one? There are just so many questions! But one thing is clear to Al and Dad both: Rick Moranis as Louis Tully/Vinz Clortho is AWESOME!

It's Jaws on land! In this super exciting, it's-almost-Halloween episode of CadaverCast, 4-year-old Alistair and his Dad talk about their viewing of William Girdler's Grizzly (1976). Sure, they discuss how Grizzly is clearly just Jaws on land and the bear is often just a guy in a bear suit. But they also reflect on horror movie conventions in general and the connections between Grizzly and other movies they've discussed on CadaverCast! Also, Dad somehow neglects to mention, when discussing Grizzly’s cast and crew, that leading man Christopher George was also in Pieces (1982)! And for that he is eternally sorry.
