About this episode

The hosts discuss the fourth chapter of Stranger Things Season 5, covering various plot points and character arcs.

Kathleen, Miles and Kirk re-watch Stranger Things 5, Chapter 4 ‘Sorcerer’. Join us in discussion from the "Peanut Butter Bopper gate" to Vecna, Will and the "Battle At The Big Mac". We talk about Hopper and Eleven confronting Dr. Kay and finding Kali, Max’s post-Piggyback journey and Delightful Derek's Great Escape! We finish with Kirk's Funny Moment, Kathleen's Feeler Moment and Miles' Music Moment of the episode. We'll be back for Instant Reactions to Volume 2 on 12/26. We won’t be able to abandon our family entirely to get the episode out on Christmas Day itself but we thought about it! Twitter/Instagram/YouTube: StrangerStill22.
