In this massive episode, we are joined by lots of friends to talk all about the upside down con. We talk to Jackie and her daughter Ana about making core memories, finally fully understanding the obsession with Joe Keery, and fun interactions they had with the cast. We welcome our friend Brandi back to the show, who recounts spending the weekend with us and some highlights including her meet and greet with Caleb, Joe Keery’s kissy face (yes, you read that correctly), and the story behind our ice cream social photo. We chat with Keren about the genuine personal connections with the cast, the homecoming dance, and why every fan of the show should visit Jackson! Kat talks about how meeting friends at the con makes us feel less alone, getting to hang out with the gorgeous Cara Buono, and Joe Keery helping us all be a little less anxious. Bree tells us all about getting to talk to Joe Keery and Jamie Campbell Bower and appreciating the experience as a big fan of the show. And finally, Hannah Sarah is back to talk about posing for the perfect photos, and we go deep while talking about some really special moments with Joe.

We pick up where we left off in part 1, at the ice cream social with Joe Keery and Maya Hawke on Saturday night, and how we left being even bigger fans if that was even possible.
Finishing out that night, we talk about our Upside Down experience in the basement of the library building, created by Southern Crescent Technical College. We also go back and talk about a cute memory of Friday night that we forgot to mention in part 1 of our recap.
This episode is not sponsored by Airbnb, Stitch Fix, Dr. Scholl’s, or any of the makeup brands we mention, but if any of those companies see this, hit us up in the future, y’all (hahaha).
Finally, we get into all of our amazing photo ops and autographs on Sunday, as well as Joe’s panel with Grace and Mason, the meet and greet with Gaten, and exploring downtown Hawkins one last time. Then Meghan talks about the little detour to Mystic Falls she took before heading home.
Stay tuned for multiple interview episodes, where we chat with others who attended the Upside Down with us! -

Cue Moby and grab your tissues, because it’s time to talk about the deaths on Stranger Things. We thought this topic would be appropriate for the spooky season, and we pour one out for those we’ve lost along the way. From the very first episode of the first season, to the final deaths of season four, there have been many significant deaths (and some close calls). We talk about the characters, how they die (or almost die), and the emotional impact their deaths had on the other characters and the tone of the show as a whole. We get into some heavy topics, and though we try to bring some levity to the conversation, make sure to take care while listening.

We spent the weekend hanging out with Joe Keery and we want to tell you all about it! Tune in as Meghan and Stacy recount their experience traveling to Georgia for the Epic Cons Upside Down event, a convention featuring over 18 members of the Stranger Things cast. Getting to meet some of our favorite actors and spend time with the cast as they are actively filming the final season of the show was a priceless, once in a lifetime experience. In this episode, we cover flying to Georgia on Thursday, visiting filming locations on Thursday and Friday, registration and trivia at the con on Friday, and the first day of the event on Saturday. We still have lots to say about the weekend, so stay tuned for part 2 of this conversation and more!

Just in time for the Upside Down, we are joined by Emma from BEYOND EPIC! We will be meeting Emma in person this weekend as she brings her amazing embroidered Stranger Things merchandise to sell as a vendor for Epic Cons. We talk about how she got started, her favorite fandoms to create for, some cool people who have worn her sweatshirts, and her process of bringing art to life.
We had an amazing time chatting about her favorite characters from Stranger Things (hint: they are the same as ours), memorable moments from the show and season 5 theories. We also connect over dogs, tattoos, and Funko POPs, and chat convention experiences, Epic Con appreciation, and excitement for the Upside Down!

As you may have figured out by now, Meghan and Stacy are headed to Hawkins… (a.k.a. Jackson. Georgia). On this week’s episode, we had the chance to talk with business owners local to Jackson to hear all about how the town embraces its connection to Stranger Things, and how they are bringing the Upside Down to the town square and beyond!
Hannah from Stranger Tours & Hawkins Headquarters told us about what it’s like to welcome fans of Stranger Things from all over the world to the town where Hawkins, Indiana is filmed, sharing the nostalgia of the 80s with people from all generations.
We also spoke to Ali from Lena Jane + Company, Donna from Jackson Escape Games, and Brittany from Vintage Vineyard about their businesses, what it’s like living and working in Jackson while the show is being filmed, and special events happening the weekend of the Epic Cons Upside Down.
Whether you are attending the convention next weekend, considering a trip to Jackson in the future, or just want to hear about all the fun things going on, be sure to tune in to this special episode!

With just two weeks left until the Upside Down convention, we are following up with Alexis from Epic Cons. Be sure to tune into our episode titled “the upside down” from May 17 to hear all about how Epic Cons got started and the beginnings of the planning process for this Stranger Things con in Jackson, Georgia (the filming location for Hawkins).
In this episode, we chat about some highlights from Epic’s last two events, the “June Wedding” Vampire Diaries con and September’s Chicago con, the very first First Responder con in the states. We loved hearing about how Alexis prioritizes connection over competition, and the amazing fundraiser they did in Chicago!
We get into how the planning process for the Upside Down has gone since May, what makes the upcoming convention unique from other Epic Cons, and what parts of the weekend Alexis is most excited about (ice cream, anyone?). Alexis shares some details and answers some of our questions about the schedule, meet and greets, and logistics of the weekend. Keep an eye out on the official Epic Cons socials for more updates as we quickly approach the week of the event.

An in-depth discussion of Chapter Six: The Spy, the sixth episode of Season 2 of Stranger Things. The episode that finally makes Steve Harrington a MAIN CHARACTER has finally arrived, so Meghan and Stacy obviously had a blast with this episode. At the hospital, Will seems a little forgetful. But is it his memory, or is it something else? Joyce is giving major mama bear energy to protect her boy and has a sweet conversation with Bob Newby, superhero. Dustin hasn’t slept for days, but don’t worry, because Steve is there for protection, hair care tips, and dating advice (...if you feel it, chase it!). Murray gives Jancy some free couples therapy, and there are two epic kissing scenes. We find out some important information about the five mind. And Lucas and Max have a really sweet moment on top of the bus. Listen in for our thoughts, reactions, and connections to other films (like Aliens).

An in-depth discussion of Chapter Five: Dig Dug, the fifth episode of Season 2 of Stranger Things. We’re digging (instead of diving) deep this week to talk about Dig Dug. Easily one of the most important, iconic, and memorable episodes of Season 2, we continue the adventure with all of our favorite characters. At the Byers house, Joyce, Will, and Mike recruit Bob the Brain to help find the pirate treasure (I mean, Hopper). Meanwhile, the Chief himself tries unsuccessfully to dig out of the tunnels. At the arcade, Max’s favorite video game (can anyone guess the name?) is out of order, so she and Lucas talk. At the same time that Max is learning about all the Upside Down shenanigans, Nancy and Jonathan give Murray the not so watered-down scoop. Dustin traps Dart, buries Mews, and recruits help from an unlikely source after his Code Red is Met with a Code Shut Your Mouth. And finally, El hitchhikes to see Mama and we find out the story behind the words Terry Ives is always repeating (even getting a glimpse of Papa). We always say we have a blast recording, but this is no exception, and we are excited to take you on this journey with us. Make sure you stay tuned until the end as we talk about Stranger Things Season 5 filming updates, new merchandise, fan art, and our reading updates (get ready to take notes!).

An in-depth discussion of Chapter Four: Will the Wise, the fourth episode of Season 2 of Stranger Things. Meghan and Stacy dive deep into this episode featuring incredible transitions, some of the most iconic lines of the show, including “He likes it cold…” and “You are like Papa!” as well as a healthy dose of Steve Harrington’s thighs. We discuss Hopper and Joyce doing their best to help Will, Max being tired of being left out of the party and finding no comfort in Billy, and Dart growing up. It’s a traumatizing day in the Henderson household, badass Nancy Wheeler and her partner in crime carry out the first phase of their plan to take down Hawkins Lab, and Hopper digs a hole. This is an incredible and highly underrated episode of Season 2 and we had a blast talking about it.

An in-depth discussion of Chapter Three: The Pollywog, the third episode of Season 2 of Stranger Things. The Pollywog is a super fun episode, and Meghan and Stacy had even more fun talking about it! Join us for the twists and turns Dustin’s newly discovered species takes us on, from Yertle’s tank to the AV Club room, and through the halls of Hawkins Middle School. We go on a lunch date with Bob and Joyce and discuss bullies over bologna sandwiches. Jonathan and Nancy cook up a plan, and Steve and Billy play basketball in P.E. class. We only had one complaint about this entertaining episode (and it was definitely the amount of screentime for Steve Harrington…). Don’t forget to listen to the end for filming and merch updates and our secret segment, which we are still doing on our lovers lake deep dives!

The massive tattoo episode is finally here! Meghan and Stacy had a blast talking to eight different guests about their Stranger Things tattoos. Guests shared what made their tattoos meaningful to them, how they chose their tattoo artist, and how much it hurt! We learned from our guests that these tattoos are more than just a permanent reminder of how much we love the show, but also represent memories, friendship, and self-acceptance and can teach us to embrace whatever comes in life.
Check back soon to see photos of all the tattoos discussed, which will be posted in a few days on https://www.instagram.com/skullrockbroadcast/ and https://www.skullrockbroadcast.com/blog.

An in-depth discussion of Chapter Two: Trick or Treat, Freak, the second episode of Season 2 of Stranger Things.
One word: Halloween! Cue the Ghostbusters theme song, because we are diving into one of our favorite episodes of Stranger Things! From dressing up as ghosts, cowboys, and vampires, to getting “sheet-faced” with keg stands and pure fuel at Tina’s party, this episode is a fun and spooky jaunt through Hawkins. The mystery of the poisoned pumpkins continues, and Will sees the shadow monster more clearly. Lucas and Dustin finally talk to Max, and Nancy’s trauma catches up with her at the party with Steve. This episode of the podcast is full of hot takes, hilarious moments, and Halloween fun.

An in-depth discussion of Chapter One: MADMAX, the first episode of Season 2 of Stranger Things.
We are finally diving into Season 2! It may only be August, but we are absolutely ready to embrace the autumn vibes of this season. Join Meghan and Stacy as we break down all of the new characters introduced in this episode, from Max and Billy, to Dr. Sam Owens, Murray Bauman, and our beloved Bob. There are lots of familiar faces too, including one curly-haired, Eggo-loving surprise at the end. We go back to school, back to Hawkins Lab, and back to the police station, but we also get to have some fun at the arcade! Dig Dug, anyone? We had a blast chatting about this episode, from rotten pumpkins and awkward dinner-table conversations, to all the swoon-worthy Steve Harrington moments. We hope you have just as much fun listening!

On this week's episode, Meghan and Stacy are joined by special guest Haley @haleysfunkospace. We talk about her epic collection of Stranger Things Funko POPs and the challenges and joys of collecting. Then we each share some of our dream Stranger Things POPs (spoiler alert: there are a lot of Steve Harrington POPs on the list). Funko, are you taking notes? Finally, Haley is also attending the Upside Down convention in October, so we had to talk about who she’s excited to meet and which POPs she is planning to get signed! No secret segment today, but look for some updates on our summer reading soon!

Love him or hate him, there’s no denying that Billy Hargrove is one of the most complex and compelling characters in Stranger Things. From the moment he stormed onto our screens in season 2, he certainly brought the action, emotion, fire, and ice. Meghan and Stacy do a deep character analysis, acknowledging the trauma and abuse that he faced but not shying away from or making excuses for his flaws. We recount his best and worst moments (sometimes they are one and the same) and discuss the incredible performance by Dacre Montgomery who played Billy. We also talk about some of the Australian actor’s other films and projects, from Power Rangers to Speedo advertisements.

Yes, we believe that season 3 of Stranger Things is arguably the most iconic representation of summer…but there are lots of movies that also encapsulate those summer vibes. In this episode, Stacy and Meghan each share 5 of the iconic and nostalgic films that represent summer for them. The episode is a bit of a wild ride with surprising choices that give you some insight into your podcast hosts beyond their obsession with Stranger Things. But of course, there are lots of references to the show throughout the episode as well. We also chat about the Gladiator II trailer, new merch drops, and what we’ve been reading so far this summer.
