207: Stranger Things, When We Were Young, & Full-Cast Magic

We’re back from Vegas, back from Hawkins, and back with another loaded episode! 🎧⚡🎸📚

🔥 What’s Hot – David and Frack share their spoiler-free thoughts on Stranger Things Season 5, Part 1—what’s working, what’s wild, and what has us terrified for Part 2. David also gushes about his two new obsessions: IT: Welcome to Derry and the mind-bending series Pluribus.

📖 What Are You Reading? – We speculate about the brand-new Audible exclusive full-cast Harry Potter audiobooks, discussing the voice acting, production quality, and whether they truly breathe new life into the series.

🎤 The Mosh Pit – The Geek Garage hits the desert! We recap our experience at this year’s When We Were Young Festival in Las Vegas—our favorite sets, surprise standouts, emotional moments, and how it felt to be surrounded by thousands of fellow scene kids.

🍿 Shit That Doesn’t Suck – David is head-over-heels for a haunting new Frankenstein adaptation, while Frack recommends Netflix’s John Wick documentary, Wick Is Pain, which dives deep into the stunts, the lore, and Keanu being Keanu.

Stranger Things, spooky towns, scene-kid nostalgia, and monster movies—yeah, this episode’s stacked.
