Grab a mug and slide into the trailer: in this week Trailer Talk & Tea, Sarah welcomes Mason Dye—aka the king og basketball at Hawkins High from STRANGER THINGS. Mason relives his first-day panic (yes, he and Joseph Quinn were both shaking in the van to that legendary season-four table-read), reveals why the Duffer Brothers’ “hands-off” directing style was the confidence boost he never saw coming, and breaks down the scenes that made him sweat … and cheer. In this episode: - Table-Read Terror – meeting Joseph Quinn for the first time, “sh*tting our pants,” and hoping not to be recast overnight - Jason’s Pep-Rally Rant – how a two-page monologue and 200 extras turned a town-hall day into pure adrenaline - The Pool That Wasn’t a Pool – filming in a 20-foot indoor lake, perfect 90°F water, and chasing Joe Keery in a boat - Season-Four Stop-Start – five months of COVID shutdown, longer hair, new highlights, and a better Jason because of it - Stranger Things Friendships – dinners with Joseph, lessons from Joe Keery, and why the cast’s “new-kid welcome” mattered - Quick-fire fun: Rubik’s-cube flexes, beach-volleyball rage, and why Jason’s prized trophy would beat his mirror (almost)   If you’ve ever wondered what it feels like to join one of the world’s biggest shows mid-stream—and still worry you’ll get the axe—this conversation is for you. Press play, pour the tea, and let those Demogorgon-level nerves out ❤️🫖
