Please take your seats and brace yourselves, because today Mr. Richardson is joined by his daughters Hayden and Brynn and former student Adelaide Boese as we dive into Stranger Things season 5 Volume 1. We are breaking down what we liked, what we loved, and yes, a few lovingly picky nitpicks before turning our attention to predicting how the rest of the series wraps up, including who survives, who does not, and who might be heading to the big Upside Down in the sky. Class is in session, Hawkins is in trouble, and nobody is emotionally safe.
