You might have guessed from the title, but we loved Stranger Things season 4. Not only did we get a nearly perfect representation of the reality of a large LDS family, but the show gave us some things to think about. Not that it was perfect: we talk about how many Latter-day Saints were hesitant to watch with the increased horror level, and the morality of horror as a genre in general. It's one of our longest episodes, but we promise the conversation will be worth your time.

Our Ratings:

Content: Telestial (but progressing)

Artistic Merit: 3 popcorn balls

Gospel Connections: 3 apricots

Best Books:

Liz - Overdue podcast

Carl - The Expanse book series & Amazon Prime series

Nathaniel - In Another World I Must Defeat the Demon King and In Another World I Must Train My Dungeon by Miles English

Barrett - Into the Woods: A Five Act Journey Through Story by John Yorke
