Hello Frequent Flyers and Welcome Aboard our 69th Episode, Stranger Things.

Come with us back to a time before the internet - when Dungeons & Dragons ruled from the basements, phones had cords, and missing children taken to a dark otherworld happened so infrequently as to be rare.

Can four kids, three teenagers, two adults and one strangely talented escaped experiment solve the mystery of small town Suburbia, before it destroys them all?

Hello Frequent Flyers, and welcome aboard our summertime service. With your Flight Crew away on top secret missions, we have decided to cultivate a selection of picks for you when the heat of the day overwhelms your poor burnt skin, and you decide to duck inside.  Sit down, get sorted with a nice cold drink and stay tuned!

Our resident Stowaway gets gritty with Gotham - the film noir superhero sendup that peeks at the backstory of Batman's villains and heroes. She then charges over to the Nintendo DS with her very own Pocket Jockey before jumping on the Back of the Turtle with Thomas King.

Stowaway then takes a load off with some Happy Little Trees with our favourite painter, Bob Ross. A happy little time is had by all.

Fearless Flyer dives right in with Flight School Recommend Favourite - that $10 founding father without a father, Hamilton! Alongside some Shakespearean shenanigans, and Lumberjane kick-assery, she celebrates Uncharted 4 by firmly suggesting a trip to your local abandoned temple in the middle of the jungle to find El Dorado.

Or just pick up the first Uncharted. You're worth it.

This week Justin gives a convincing sermon about Preacher and PaperGirls - two fantastical picks to start off your summer with. Then he travels East of West in this alternate history comic that put the apocalypse and cowboys together in a rollicking race to the end of days.

He stops for a small gig with the Greek Gods in The Wicked and Divine, and gives as good as he gets when the prophecy: He will be loved, he will be hated. In two years he will be dead - threatens to end his tenure on our show. Fight back, SEMM!
