by Netflix

October, 1983. There’s a monster lurking in Hawkins, Indiana. Chewing people up, spitting them out, changing them in terrible ways.

Starring Maya Hawke as Robin and Sean Maher as her favorite teacher, Mr. Hauser, Surviving Hawkins is the podcast companion to the YA novel, Stranger Things: Rebel Robin, by A.R. Capetta.

Genuinely amazing. I am so disappointed that there is only the one season, alas. But the show itself is wonderful. I also read the book which I highly recommend because it adds a lot of background detail but they fit together perfectly and can both stand alone. The character dynamics are wonderful and I just really genuinely love this show. I do think that the relationship between Robin and Mr. Howser is creepy and feels a bit like he is grooming her, despite the (no spoilers) reasons he wouldn’t do that. Still a great pod though!!

I was never a big fan of Stranger Things but I am an audio show fan so when this popped up in my recommended I had to listen to it. The show itself is not bad and has a really cool story and sound design. And the arcs of each character is so realistic and grounded. I would recommend this to anyone who likes Stranger Things.

This is a podcast prequel that takes place the same year as the events of season 1 of stranger things, but you can enjoy this podcast even if you haven’t watched the show! This show also works as a standalone Maya Hawke and Sean Maher both do a fantastic job in this short podcast prequel. It was a true delight to listen and I highly recommend this show!
