Nerd To Know Basis #275 🤓: Stranger Things Ends, AI Dubs Begin, and Vince Gilligan Gets Weird

This week, Cian and Kev dive into the beginning of the end for Stranger Things, breaking down the first half of the final season — what works, what doesn’t, and whether Netflix’s last true monoculture can stick the landing. From there, Kev introduces Pluribus, the unexpected and deeply strange new sci-fi series from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan, starring Rhea Seehorn — a bold creative swing that’s flying under the radar. The conversation then turns sour as Amazon is caught using AI-generated English dubs for anime, sparking a wider discussion about AI, voice acting, and why this tech keeps making everything worse. A thoughtful, opinionated episode about endings, originality, and why supporting real artists matters more than ever. 📅 Air Date: 06-12-25 📻 Phoenix 92.5 FM & wherever you get your podcasts #NerdToKnow,#StrangerThings,#Pluribus,#VinceGilligan,#AIDebate,#AnimeNews,#StreamingCulture,#Podcast,#GeekCulture,#TVTalk
