Have you ever been so deep into something that walking away felt impossible, even when everything inside you knew it wasn't working? Maybe it was a job, a relationship, a project, a bad movie you sat through anyway because you'd already watched an hour and a half of it. There's actually a name for that trap, and today's episode is all about it.

A secret photo, a tabloid newspaper, and an unknown monster lurking beneath Hawkins. This week's episode of Tales from '85 is packed with tension, teamwork, and an settling final reveal.

A few years ago I was faced with a decision I knew was important. It consumed me. I spent weeks thinking about it. I consulted friends, colleagues, and professionals. I knew the stakes and I didn't want to mess it up. Finally, after carefully weighing the situation, I made my decision. And it didn't take long to realize that despite all my best efforts, I'd made the wrong choice. Fortunately, a voice emerged that became the lighthouse I desperately needed.

We are joined by Cory for this episode as we unpack yet another phenomenal, game-changing episode of Fringe! We talk about how much we love how emotionally poignant this aftermath of an episode is and how it is a great character study not only of the classic Fringe theme of what lengths someone will go to for love but also how people can experience the same tragedy but then react and grieve differently.

Sometimes the most important moment of your life doesn't feel like a moment at all. For me, it was a phone call I wasn't even on, made by two people who simply noticed a kid who needed someone to show up. This is the story of the summer that changed everything.

Something is changing in Hawkins, and the gang is starting to realize the threat they are facing is bigger than anything they have dealt with before. Chapter Three of Stranger Things: Tales From '85, "Evolution," picks up the pace in a big way, as Nikki's mysterious past begins to come into focus and the dangers lurking around Hawkins start to evolve into something far more unsettling.

September 11th was an impact event. Kennedy's assassination was an impact event. We trust the accounts of those events from people who were there, even decades later, because impact events don't fade. If Jesus rose from the dead, that was the most profound impact event in human history. And the people who wrote about it did so at personal cost  while eyewitnesses to the event were still alive to verify those accounts. Not for fame, not for money, not for power. Most of them died for it. People don't typically die for something they KNOW is a lie.
