About this listen

This week on Hix Nix Stix Pix, we fire up the positively charged pink slime and take a deep dive into Ghostbusters II—the sequel that split fans but somehow marched straight into pop-culture immortality.

Why does this movie feel so different from the original? How much did The Real Ghostbusters cartoon influence the tone, humor, and slime-to-screen ratio? Was Vigo the Carpathian an all-time creepy villain trapped in the wrong movie? And yes… we finally ask the question movies don't want you thinking about: how did the Statue of Liberty get back to Liberty Island?

We break down what people love, what people hate, the unforgettable highlight scenes (courtroom chaos, bathtub terror, and Lady Liberty getting her groove on), Winston's quiet five-year grind between busting gigs, and why "Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher and Higher" wasn't just a song choice—it was the entire thesis of the finale.

Is Ghostbusters II an underrated comfort sequel, a live-action cartoon episode, or proof that sequels play it safe? Grab your mood slime, keep it positive, and join us as we find out.
