Episode 111
Show notes
Whitney, Collin, and Doug revisit the music that made Stranger Things great, with their list of the series’ best needle drops.

Stranger Things Post Show: Conformity Gate!
Episode 108
Show notes
Collin, Whitney, and Doug keep the Stranger Things fires burning with a discussion of the conspiracy theory that has failed to pan out (so far). No, Melvald’s doesn’t serve milkshakes anymore, and yes, the Squawk dial changed color… but does that mean there’s a secret ninth episode hidden in a vault at Netflix headquarters?

S5E4: Sorcerer
Episode 4
Show notes
Whitney, Collin, and Doug wrap up Volume I of Stranger Things 5 with 'Chapter Four: Sorcerer'.
