Attention all Stranger Things enthusiasts! Get ready to dive deeper into the world of Hawkins with a unique radio experience. The Squawk, a radio station straight out of the Upside Down, is now available for your listening pleasure!
But here's where it gets controversial... WSQK, as it's known, isn't just a fictional creation. It's a real, live radio station, and you can tune in right now!
WSQK: The Squawk - A Stranger Things Radio Station
This awesome radio venture launched just before the release of Stranger Things 5, Vol. 1, and it's packed with '80s bangers, bops, and ballads. The hosts? None other than the iconic duo, Robin and Steve, along with a crew of American DJs, including Vance Goodman and Mindy Flare. And let's not forget the retro American-style ads that'll transport you straight to Hawkins.
On The Squawk, you'll find some fun segments like 'Rewind at 9: Turning Hawkins Upside Down', where a track played backwards challenges fans. There's also 'Talk to Tammy', a resident Agony Aunt, and 'Dial-A-Dedication', where you can get a shout-out on air. It's a radio station with a twist, and it's waiting for you to discover all the hidden gems and Easter eggs.
