Episode 65 - Reverse Engineering Stranger Things' Success 👽🙃

On this episode, we keep the Stranger Things binge sesh going in full-force by breaking down exactly why Stranger Things’ has been so successful and which factors about its success has propelled it to the forefront of the zeitgeist. I break down all components of the show including the over-arching strategy of how any output tends to have a better opportunity for success when it maintains a balance between delivering something new and valuable and providing something that feels familiar on a certain level. I analyze how this works in mediums ranging from TV and film, to music, to business and product innovation. I also dive into the importance of Stranger Things’ original score and the power of “audio branding” along with a rant about how Netflix should protect from our gluttonous binging ways. All that and more in the latest episode! Have a request, comment, question, or hate rant against us? Love Stranger Things? Hate it and want to yell at us about how we should grow up? Hit us up!!
