This week on the podcast, Boars, Gore, and Swords takes a break from the A Song of Ice and Fire book club to watch the first episode of Netflix’s Spielbergian horror sci-fi series Stranger Things. In this installment of What You Should Be Watching, Ivan and Red discuss the shows’s many references, what constitutes a solid creeping monster jump scare, and ill-fated emotional attachments to burly diner cooks.
