'Weird Al' Yankovic Has 'Brave' Response To New 'Stranger Things' Reference

The newest season of “Stranger Things ” dropped on Friday, complete with the usual references to 1980s cultural touchstones including another name-check of musical icon “Weird Al ” Yankovic.

The moment comes when a new character, Eddie Munson, describes first meeting Dustin and Mike and recalls Dustin’s “brave” choice of wardrobe as a high school freshman.

Yankovic shared a clip of the scene with a #Brave hashtag: 

Yankovic has been referenced on the Netflix show at least twice before.

Dustin wore the aforementioned T-shirt in Season 3. And in another scene in the same season, Yankovic’s “My Bologna ” a parody of the hit song “My Sharona ” by The Knack was playing at science teacher Mr. Clarke’s home. 

Yankovic tweeted at the time:

The newest season features an even bigger moment for another 1980s musical icon as Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” plays a key role in the plot, driving the 1985 track to No. 1 on the iTunes charts .
