Collin and guest host Doug continue our three-part definitive ranking of every Stranger Things episode (so far). This time, we're keeping things rolling with the middle of the pack – the meh, the beige, the quintessentially mediocre chapters of our beloved show.

Collin and guest host Doug kick off our three-part definitive ranking of every Stranger Things episode (so far).

Hop on a bus, go find your lost sister, and then join us!

Collin and guest host Doug continue our Stranger Things Character Deep Dive series with the pride of the Hawkins High marching band, Robin Buckley. Code-breaker extraordinaire, 'Hidden Fortress' lover, and empirical badass, she's the one who figures out what needs to happen, and then always gets it done. Collin and Doug look at how Robin has shaped our favorite show and also talk about the first few Season 5 breadcrumbs from Netflix and the Duffers. Tell Petey McHew to suck it, and join us!

Collin and guest host Doug can't prep for Season 5 of Stranger Things without first looking back at all the best that Seasons 1–4 had to offer.

R-U-N (don't walk) and join us!
