Collin (flying solo this time!) continues the Stranger Things Character Deep Dive series with the oh-so-loveable Dusty-bun — the kid with all the answers and a killer sense of humor... though admittedly questionable judgment in picking pets. Collin looks at how Dustin has evolved over four seasons and how he makes Stranger Things the little bit of awesome that it is. Offer up your best lightsaber handshake and join us!
