Stranger Things: S1. Ch7. The Bathtub Ft. Brandon from Revamped

The gang finally combines forces and everyone converges in the school to help Eleven find Will and Barb. Join Sarah, Lea, and guest host Brandon from Revamped as they discuss the incredible van sequence, Steve's change of heart, and how Sartre's Look applies to the show.

While Joyce and Hopper look into Terry Ives, Lucas looks for the gate, Dustin and Mike search for Eleven, and Jonathan and Nancy go monster hunting. Listen as Sarah, Lea, and Tony discuss holes and lube, the difference between mobbing and bullying, toxic masculinity and othering, and who the show says are the real monsters.

In the aftermath of the previous episode, Joyce's ex, Lonnie shows up to "help," Hopper is fully on board Joyce's crazy train, tensions come to a head within the kids' group, and Nancy steps foot into the Upside Down. Listen to hear Lea and Sarah discuss Nancy and Jonathan's defiance of gender norms, El's desire for a "normal" life with a nuclear family, and the 80's view of parents' culpability for raising "queer" children.

Joyce continues to search for Will, Hopper becomes suspicious about the goings-on at the lab, El and the boys take a trip to the school, and Nancy and Jonathan team up. Join Sarah, Lea, and Prophecy Girls' host, Steph, as they discuss sad boi Jonathan, the return of the monstrous feminine, sexy Hopper, and the theme of women not being believed. 

Nancy discovers that Barb is missing, Joyce makes contact with something claiming to be Will, and Eleven claims Will is still alive...only for his body to turn up in the quarry. Listen as Sarah and Lea discuss the darkness of Eleven's past and the fantastic nonverbal cues between her and Brenner, the ghost of Barb haunting the narrative and how this is shown through Nancy, and the iconic scene of Joyce with the lights. 

Mike, Dustin, and Lucas try to figure out what to do when Eleven reveals she has super powers and she doesn't want to tell the adults, Joyce has a terrifying encounter with an entity in her walls, and something happens to Barb at Steve's party. Listen to hear Sarah and Lea discuss the way the show is subverting the classic 80's tropes, Jonathan's weirdo behavior, the thematic and symbolic use of music, and more!

A missing boy, a small town, a mysterious girl...it's the first episode of Stranger Things! Join Sarah and Lea as they discuss set design, location, behind the scenes, introduce the characters/actors, and of course, discuss the episode.

Hey Nerds! From Los Angeles, California to Hawkins, Indiana, join Sarah and Lea as they begin their journey through Stranger Things. Listen as they discuss the making of season 1, the Duffer brothers' history in film and TV, how Janet Jackson's nip slip led to streaming television, and so much more!

Merry Christmas!! Listen to Sarah and Lea discuss "The Holiday" while you finish off that Christmas chocolate, go for a post-Christmas meal walk, or take a drive to escape your family get-together. Hear the girls discuss behind the scenes, casting, and conspiracy theories, as well as the show they plan on deep-diving into next! (good-bye 90's, hello 80's!)

Sarah and Lea answer listener questions, discuss their thoughts on season five and the series as a whole, and reflect on their podcast journey.
