Ship Happens!
Steddie - "You Got this One Big Boy"
Explore the pairing that turned a fandom 'upside down.' Emily and Rachel dive into the unexpected yet fan-favorite ship of Steve and Eddie from Stranger Things. The podcast explores the dynamics between the two characters, how fan fiction has elevated their relationship, and the themes and tropes found in these fan-created stories. They discuss notable scenes, the chemistry (or lack thereof) on screen, and how the fandom has interpreted and expanded their connection through creative storytelling. Amid the discussion, they touch on the competitive nature of shipping wars and the broader impact of fan fiction on pop culture.
