The Shameless Plug #9: Stranger Things Has Happened
6 November 2025 - 43 mins explicitAnother month, another issue of Empire, another episode of The Shameless Plug. This time, Chris Hewitt and Nick de Semlyen sit down to talk about how Stranger Things ended up on the cover of the world's biggest movie magazine, and nearly did so upside down. And they also talk about less strange things, including the stories behind the stories of the latest issue of Empire, on sale now in all good, evil, and virtual newsagents. From wild ukulele tales from the set of Wake Up Dead Man to recruiting David Lowery to write a personal tribute to Robert Redford, it's another belter of an episode, somehow even more shameless than the last. Enjoy.
