Stranger Things Rebel Robin: Surviving Hawkins podcast has landed on YouTube with the first three episodes. Here’s Robin and adventures in the first season.

We all know that the world’s leading streamer has created some of the most amazing shows in the entertainment industry. And when we talk about successful series from Netflix, Stranger Things is probably the first one to come to mind. The series managed to take the world by storm with its first season back in 2017 and has had a growing audience since then.

The series focuses on a band of children living in a village called Hawkins. Although it seems like a humble and simple place like any other, Hawkins is actually a very strange town full of danger, anomalies, and mysteries. And the four kids, along with their allies such as the town sheriff, a lonely mother, and a couple of teenagers; find themselves in the center of a much bigger threat.

One of many reasons why the Stranger Things series is definitely related to its brilliant characters like Robin Buckley. Played by Maya Hawke, Robin is one of the protagonists we saw throughout the third season of Stranger Things. And the podcast Rebel Robin: Surviving Hawking follows her adventures based on the novel written by A. R. Capetta.

Netflix announced Stranger Things Rebel Robin: Surviving Hawkins podcast back in June. The podcast is now available to stream on the official YouTube channel of Stranger Things. Like we mentioned earlier, it is an adaptation of the original Stranger Things novel with the same name.

Robin Buckley is a very smart character that we watched during the events in Stranger Things season 3. She works in the ice cream shop called Scoops Ahoy located in Starcourt Mall.

Robin is also a multilingual person as she can speak French, Italian, Spanish, and Latin. This also helps her decode the message in Russian when she tries to understand what is going on under the mall. She is also an LGBT character and the book also investigates her journey of discovering who she is.

The plot of the podcast Rebel Robin: Surviving Hawkins revolves around Robin’s adventures in the first season. The novel and the podcast reveal what was Robin doing during the events in the first episodes.

The writer of the show A. R. Capetta also talked about the synopsis of the book and stated that it was an amazing experience. Writing a prequel for an interesting character definitely excited the author. She also said that the podcast does not necessarily tell what’s going in the book. But it depicts an expanded version of the narrative in the book.
