About this podcast

Bench Tested is a Ghostbusters podcast for fans who love the gear as much as the ghosts. Each episode dives into the props that brought the films to life, from proton packs and ghost traps to the belt gizmos and experimental tech seen on screen. We break down the history, design, electronics, and real world builds behind these iconic devices, while talking with prop makers and fans who keep the spirit of Ghostbusters alive at the workbench.
