SPOILER ALERT FOR THE WHOLE SHOW (but especially season 5)

Lauren and Joel wrap their 3rd mini-series of “The Music of Stranger Things” with a deep dive of the song "Landslide” by Fleetwood Mac. They discuss when the song is used in the show, what this evokes for the audience, and how the song advances the overall plot of Stranger Things. They break down the instrumentalization of the song & analyze some of the lyrics before a lightning round. This is one of our favorites by a landslide! We hope it helps you see more of your own reflection, campers.
