Friends don’t lie, and neither do we when we say: this is a great episode. Jonathan Hogue ("Stranger Sings") stops by to talk about the suspicious Netflix series “Stranger Things,” what it takes to write a parody musical, and puppet sentience. Then, Josh Groban’s Greying Beard joins us to discuss all it brings to the famous performer’s plate.
