As we journey back to Hawkins one last time, we dive into the fifth and final season of the mega-hit series *Stranger Things*. We discuss how the show wraps up its long-running storylines, the emotional arcs of our favorite characters, and the balance between nostalgia, horror, and heart that defined the series from the start. From epic moments to lingering questions, we reflect on the legacy of *Stranger Things* and what its conclusion means for fans who've been along for the ride since day one.

For this special A Little Extra Squee side quest, Rachel and Holly take a break from pop culture to check in on the current state of some local sports teams—because being a nerd and loving sports are absolutely not mutually exclusive. From highs and lows to painfully mediocre seasons, nothing is off the table. They also dive into a newer fandom obsession, Inter Milan football, and tangent into conversations about athletes who don't know when to retire and why Olympic coverage in the U.S. keeps hiding behind paywalls (looking at you, NBC).

We're closing out 2025 the only way that makes sense: with explosions, one-liners, and a whole lot of holiday chaos. For our final episode of the year, we're revisiting the action classic Die Hard and breaking down what makes it such an enduring favorite. From John McClane's reluctant heroism to unforgettable villains, iconic moments, and the eternal "is it a Christmas movie?" debate, we're going out with a bang—yippee-ki-yay and all.
