We discuss volume 2 for the fifth season of Stranger Things! Did you like the new 3 episodes? How will the show end? Are we dumb? It’s November 1987 and the gang is trying to hunt down and kill Vecna after the Upside Down breaches Hawkins, leading to military lockdown and intensifying searches for Eleven. Meanwhile, Holly Wheeler has become a target, Henry Creel’s origins are revealed, and Will's growing connection to the Upside Down becomes crucial. Volume 2: Basically we figure out what the Upside Down truly is and what Vecna’s plan is.The crew conquer a small but important hurdle in their last stand against Vecna… they make it through the heavily guarded MAC-Z gate with the whole party intact. Eleven feels uneasy about the sacrifice that her sister, Kali, has asked her to make. Meanwhile, at the Creel House in Camazotz, Vecna has gathered his kidnapped children to cast a powerful spell that will set his ominous plan in motion.

The Upside Down is collapsing—and it's not because of Vecna, it's because of an exotic matter black hole that could consume the entire human race. Join hosts Darrell and Addi as they break down "Escape From Camazotz," the episode where everything we thought we knew about the Upside Down gets flipped on its head. We dissect Dustin's shocking revelation about the shield generator being a wormhole between worlds, analyze Holly and Max's desperate escape from Vecna's mind through the traumatic memory in the caves, and explore El's journey into the Void to rescue Will from being used as Vecna's spy one final time. From the explosive hospital showdown with Demodogs to Karen Wheeler's heroic oxygen tank moment, we're covering every heart-pounding plot point. Plus, we dive into the emotional turning point between Nancy and Jonathan as they face their relationship's truth in a flooding office, examining their "un-proposal" and what it means for both characters moving forward. We also break down Will's connection to the hive mind, Joyce's parental guilt, and the devastating moment when Henry Creel discovered the Mind Flayer as a Boy Scout. Darrell's bringing his theories about what Dustin's research means for Holly, and we're sharing our predictions about how Max and Holly's "escape" will impact the endgame. Whether you're still processing that wormhole revelation or trying to figure out how our crew will stop dimensional collapse, this breakdown has all the insights you need!

Episode 7 opens with a major turning point: Max Mayfield (Sadie Sink – The Whale, Fear Street) wakes safely in the real world, while Holly Wheeler is revealed to be trapped inside the Abyss, a newly defined and far more dangerous dimension. Dustin Henderson (Gaten Matarazzo – Prank Encounters, Dear Evan Hansen) and Steve Harrington (Joe Keery – Free Guy, Fargo) rescue Nancy (Natalia Dyer – Yes, God, Yes) and Jonathan (Charlie Heaton – The New Mutants) just in time to witness Holly falling through the Upside Down — only for Henry Creel / Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower – Sweeney Todd, Twilight) to telekinetically pull her back. As Erica Sinclair (Priah Ferguson – The Oath), Murray Bauman (Brett Gelman – Fleabag, The Other Guys), and Mr. Clarke (Randy Havens – Godzilla: King of the Monsters) reunite with the group, the threat escalates when Dr. Kay (Linda Hamilton – The Terminator, T2) orders Akers to hunt Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown – Enola Holmes, Godzilla: King of the Monsters). Dustin explains that the Abyss is a separate dimension entirely, while Max reveals Henry's true goal: merging it with the real world to complete his plan.

Three teams across two dimensions are executing bold and dangerous plans—and if you think nothing could go wrong, you haven't been watching Stranger Things. Join hosts Darrell and Addi as they break down "Shock Jock," the midseason premiere that kicks off Volume 2 with even more elaborate schemes than before. After Will's radical self-acceptance moment unlocked his powers in the previous episode, our crew is now scattered across Hawkins and the Upside Down, coordinating insane multi-layered plans that only partially work and create dire consequences that will require… you guessed it, even more insane plans to fix. We dissect every strategic move, analyze what's happening with the hive mind connection, and explore the revelations hidden in the drawings and research Dustin found. Plus, Darrell is bringing the heat with his Grand Final Theory that connects all the dots from this season—and trust us, you'll want to hear all the crazy places he thinks this is all headed. We also dive deep into what Dustin's drawings and research reveal about the true nature of the threat our crew is facing and what it means for the endgame. From group brainstorming sessions to cross-dimensional coordination, we're breaking down every plot point and sharing our wildest predictions for how this all ends. Whether you're trying to piece together the clues or just along for the chaotic ride, this breakdown has everything you need!

For a year that changed just about everything we know about the Canadian political landscape, Power & Politics is upgrading the final Weekly Wrap podcast of 2025 to our Yearly Wrap. Zain Velji, Carlene Variyan and Rachael Segal break down Mark Carney's rise to prime minister, the Conservative reversal of fortunes and whether Carney has lived up to his big promises both at home and south of the border.
The response to our "Sorcerer" recap was so massive, we had no choice but to dedicate an entire follow-up episode to listener theories—and it gets wild fast. Addi and Darrell dive into your reactions and ideas surrounding the episode's biggest moments, from the children's rescue mission and the Demogorgon chase into the Upside Down to Will's vision of Vecna's web and his shocking emergence as a new psychic force. This episode is fueled by the fans, breaking down how these moments may reshape the endgame of Stranger Things Season 5 and why "Sorcerer" could be the most important chapter yet. The highlight is a huge new theory from Bradley, which brilliantly connects the color symbolism from Chris in New York's earlier theory to Max's comics from Season 3, revealing a potential visual language that's been hiding in plain sight for years. There's also a lot of speculation into Max's time inside Henry's dream world and what it might mean for her fate going forward. If you love deep-cut callbacks, fan-driven analysis, and the kind of theories that make you want to rewatch the entire series, this listener-powered episode is absolutely essential listening.

Filmmakers, we have the creators of the biggest show on the planet. The masterminds who took 80s nostalgia, Dungeons & Dragons, and a group of kids on bikes, and turned it into a global empire. I am talking, of course, about Matt and Ross Duffer—The Duffer Brothers! Now, you know them as the creators of Stranger Things, the show that literally breaks the internet every time a new season drops. But what we love about this conversation is that we go right back to the start. We talk about their 2015 low-budget horror thriller, Hidden—a film that got caught in studio limbo but taught them the vital lessons of directing and how they pitched Stranger Things around various studios and TV execs getting rejections along the way. We dive into how they work as a duo, how they pitch to networks (and deal with rejection!), and the absolute mountain of work it takes to land the final season of the most popular show in the world. From the Upside Down to the top of Hollywood, this is a masterclass in long-form storytelling and sticking to your vision. Grab your Eggos and turn up the volume. Let's welcome...

I'm back, and I honestly can't explain how good it feels to be here again.It's been six months since I last recorded, and a lot has happened. I'm coming to you now about five months postpartum, and for the first time in a long time, I feel like I have my life, my soul, and my body back after a really difficult pregnancy, an unexpectedly intense birth, and a postpartum season that took real time to recover from.In this episode (Part 1), I'm sharing my birth story, because I really believe birth stories are sacred. Mine didn't go the way I planned at all, and I debated whether to share it, because it's intense. I gave birth in Israel on June 16th, in the middle of a sudden war with Iran, and it was the definition of “everything out of control.” If you're currently pregnant and feel like this might be too much, it is completely okay to save this for later.I take you through the final days of pregnancy with SPD, the chaos of lockdown with two toddlers, losing my original doula plan, switching hospitals last minute, and what it was like going into labor while sirens and alerts were going off. I also share what helped me get through it in the moment, and how I've been processing it since, including the shift from anger and resentment to finally being able to draw strength from what I survived.If you've ever had a birth or postpartum experience that didn't go how you expected, I hope this helps you feel less alone.In this episode, I open up about:The moment everything changed when we went into war and life shut downLosing my original birth plan, and what it felt like to adjust in real timeAdvocating for what I wanted during labor (and what I had to let go of)Using hypnobirthing, breath, and visualization to stay grounded when everything felt chaoticTransition, nausea, pushing, and the moment I met my baby girlPostpartum in the hospital during sirens, shelters, and being moved ward-to-ward+so much moreJoin The Empowered Path to Pregnancy today for 25% off with the code CHANUKAH at checkout!

Stranger Things Season 5 just delivered its most shocking power shift yet—and it didn't come from Eleven. In our Season 5, Episode 4 "Sorcerer" breakdown, Addi and Darrell dive headfirst into the episode that changes everything. From the desperate rescue mission to save the children to the pulse-pounding moment when a Demogorgon is chased straight into the Upside Down, this chapter pushes Hawkins past the point of no return. We analyze Will's haunting vision of Vecna's web, where Holly Wheeler and other children hang suspended, and unpack how that single image reframes Vecna's endgame. Addi and Darrell also walk through Mike, Lucas, and Robin's high-risk infiltration of the military base, a sequence that blends classic Stranger Things teamwork with real, irreversible consequences. But the heart of "Sorcerer"—and of our podcast episode—is Will Byers. As three Demogorgons prepare to attack Mike, Lucas, and Robin, Will's memories of his happiest moments with Joyce, Jonathan, and Mike ignite something entirely new. He freezes the creatures in midair and kills them, revealing new psychic abilities that redefine Will's role in the fight against Vecna. Addi and Darrell connect this moment to their new theories, while also breaking down the chilling revelations about Max's experience trapped inside Henry's dream world, drawing unsettling parallels between memory, trauma, and power. If you're searching for an in-depth Stranger Things Season 5 podcast that goes beyond recap and into meaning, theory, and emotional fallout, this episode is one you don't want to miss.

Fresh out of hairdressing school, she faced language barriers and no connections, taking jobs cleaning salons while learning the craft and industry. Her persistence paid off, landing her first hairstyling role and setting her on a path to success. Today, Sarah is a celebrated hairstylist in high-fashion editorials and major Hollywood productions, including Stranger Things. Her work is recognized not just for technical precision, but for storytelling—using hair to capture character, mood, and narrative. Passionate about the intersection of hairstyling, pop culture, and identity, Sarah continues to innovate and inspire, showing how hair can be a powerful form of self-expression.
