Ralph from Cake Boss returns to help us figure out if these kids are monster racist, how useful a good Igor would be right now, and how much Justin just can't stand those pesky millenials on his lawn.

PLUS: A movie-breaking deleted scene, and a movie-awesoming included scene that both the actor and director hated anyway.

It's been so long... so very long... and now Andrew and Justin are back in the treehouse getting ready for more Monster Squad Minutes next week!

But before we get there, we're talking about other possible Monster Squad-esque monster mashes using a gamut of 80s practical effectsy beasties!

From a Robot Squad with Terminator, Johnny Five and the Flight of the Navigator ship, to a fight between the Poltergeist House and the Amityville Horror house, we're taking a deep dive into classic 80s sci fi and horror.

Also, we tried out a different recording format and... it wasn't great! Back to the classics next week.
