I Usually Complain About How Little Stranger Things Actually References Indiana, But This Deep Cut From The Radio Station Had Me Impressed

Eleven in front of the radio station .

Stranger Things' final season got underway on the 2025 TV schedule, and as usual, fans are obsessing about every little moment, be it super important to the overall plot or just some random observation. I'm leaning on the other side of things after the latest batch of episodes, but only because, as a resident of Indiana, I absolutely loved a deep cut reference spotted during the radio station scenes.

As a proud Hoosier, it's stung that the Duffer brothers opt to keep Hawkins more of a town that encapsulates the 1980s in general, rather than zero in on some of the Indiana-specific things that occurred during that time. With that said, someone on the production team knows what they're doing, and put in a bumper sticker of one of the state's most iconic radio shows.
