135. Stranger Things | Podding On
Our cultural artefact for this Podding On episode is the Netflix TV phenomenon, Stranger Things. Stranger Things is an American science fiction horror drama television series created by the Duffer Brothers (Matt and Ross Duffer) that premiered on Netflix on July 15, 2016, and concluded with its fifth and final season on November 28, 2025. Set primarily in the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana, in the 1980s, the series follows a group of young friends who investigate the mysterious disappearance of their friend Will Byers, uncovering a secret government laboratory, a telekinetic girl named Eleven, and a terrifying parallel dimension known as the "Upside Down" that is home to monstrous creatures, all while being pursued by supernatural forces and government agents. Over on , we podded off about Making Of documentaries and how the one about Season 5 of Stranger Things might have revealed a little too much sausage making.
