Skull Rock Broadcast: A Stranger Things Podcast

What would you change about season 5 of Stranger Things? Stacy and Meghan start this episode with a conversation about the movies we watched this week, including Cold Storage, "Wuthering Heights," and classic comedies This Is Spinal Tap and The ‘Burbs. Then, we each share five fixes we would make to improve the final season of Stranger Things, critiquing some of the writing choices, particularly the time jumps, character development, and notable absences of a few key characters.

In this episode, Stacy and Meghan celebrate Valentine’s Day (Stacy’s favorite holiday) by discussing their favorite on-screen love stories from movies and TV shows. The conversation highlights our contrasting tastes, from quirky films like Dinner in America (2020) and interesting horror film choices, to iconic films such as William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet (1996) and poorly explained (on Meghan’s part) historical references in the Outlander television series.

In this episode, Stacy and Meghan welcome back Kelly, our friend and first-ever guest from two years ago, to discuss the continued viral success of Djo (the musical project of Joe Keery, who also played Steve Harrington in Stranger Things). We reflect on some memorable concert experiences from Djo’s Back on You and Another Bite tours last year and share our thoughts on The Crux and The Crux Deluxe, the two new albums he released in 2025. We also create our own mixtape, sharing some of our favorite tracks from the 1980s and chatting about the significance of music in pop culture. Finally, we share our anticipation for Joe’s upcoming projects, including the film Cold Storage, and predictions for more live music this year.

"We are fandom girlies and there's just so much to discuss with music, movies, TV shows." In this episode, Stacy and Meghan kick off a brand new season of Skull Rock Broadcast by hopping on the nostalgia trend and discussing the pop culture of the year 2016. We reflect on the initial impact of Stranger Things, which premiered that year, as well as our experiences with various TV shows and movies, including The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, and Orange is the New Black. We share the significance of certain moments in our lives during that time and discuss cultural phenomena of the year, such as Pokémon Go and Snapchat filters. We also share our thoughts on the recent Stranger Things documentary, discussing the behind-the-scenes efforts that went into the show's production and the emotional impact it had on fans. This episode gives a preview of what to expect from our show moving forward, as we continue to focus mostly on Stranger Things but begin to weave in other pop culture elements as well.
