Episode notes
The Pop Rocket gang (well, most of them) went to go see the new Ghostbusters this weekend and are here to tell you all about it! Is Leslie Jones the next big movie star? How amazing is Kate McKinnon? Where was Rick Moranis in this whole thing? Margaret puts on her tin foil hat and discusses her theory about Kimye and Taylor’s latest feud, Oliver talks about his latest DJ gig, Guy explains why Ghostbusters is getting so much criticism from certain internet communities, and Wynter closes with a Bustin’ remix.
Hey! Margaret’s new book, Neon Green, is out now! Check HERE to see if she’s coming around to your town. You could also buy her book HERE.
The search for the Song of the Summer still rages on, folks. Look for the official thread on the Pop Rocket Facebook group and send in your submissions.
