Return to the upside down in today's episode as Stephanie and returning guest Drea Mayer break down everything Stranger Things from their overall love of the show to the various plot holes of season 5 and their thoughts on the series finale. Is this show a "period piece?" You will just have to tune in to find out. Also in this episode, a PSA to go to your local movie theater and Stephanie finds it a safe place to share one of her nightmares.

Thank you to everyone who submitted their thoughts on the show as you might get a shout out in today's episode! Buckle up for the longest episode of season 3 so far, but bound to be a lot of fun nerding out as usual!
