Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I kick off a new Jesse Series for January 2023, Jesse's Ladies and I'm starting with Full House S1E5: Sea Cruise, which aired on October 16, 1987. Basically covering all the ladies that came before Becky. In this episode Danny's all-male fishing trip turns into a love-boat cruise. The girls spend the night at Grandma's leaving the guys with an empty house for the first time ever. Danny uses this opportunity to suggest they go on a midnight fishing trip down at the marina, just the guys. However Joey and Jesse have other plans of the lady variety, but Danny digs in his heels and plays the guilt card of he's not ready to meet anyone new, so Joey and Jesse give in and they go down to the marina for what they think is a guys only night out, but boy are they surprised. Jesse is reunited with an old flame, famous Rockstar Roxana who brings along her back up singers Yvonne and Vega, and we also have the Captain of the boat Neptune's Bride, none other than Captain Jack's granddaughter Caroline. Danny's turns the co-ed boat trip into a sulk fest with his attitude while Jesse and Joey are over the moon with the female intrusion. I enjoyed this episode, however Danny's stick in the mud attitude got on my nerves. I mean you can do a boys night out anywhere anytime. I do agree that Caroline was coming on a little too strong to Danny with the constant hugging and touching his shoulder clearly making him uncomfortable, but she was a sweet lady once he told her they could be friends. Jesse has to get this jealous chip off his shoulder, just because Roxanna found success outside of your band and you're still playing dive bars. Maybe try writing your own songs and not singing covers all the time. So you're 24 and haven't hit it big in the music industry there's still time to have a number 1 hit in Japan down the road. Join me next week when we meet the next lady of Jesse's, Corrina Spicer in Full House S1E8: Jesse's Girl, which aired on November 6, 1987. In this episode on a stormy night, the family is up telling a bedtime story about a girl that caught the eye of both Jesse and Joey. The girl was being tutored by Jesse, but fell hard for Joey. Have a great weekend everyone and I hope you enjoy the podcast! To EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I conclude the Jesse & Michelle Double Feature for the month of December with Full House S6E18: Please Don't Touch The Dinosaur, which aired on February 23, 1993. In this episode Jesse and Danny both get volunteered to take Michelle's class on a field trip to the museum. Jesse's rowdier bunch of kids cause trouble and end up destroying a dinosaur skeleton. Meanwhile, Stephanie and D.J. get into an argument over who owns a baseball card worth $2,000. I enjoyed this episode. Michelle caught in the middle of having to choose between Danny's group and Jesse's group on a trip to the Museum. Honestly, it's not a hard choice for her, she always chooses Jesse over Danny, and this time Danny takes it a little too personally and starts lashing out at Jesse's chaperon skills after his group of rowdy kids causes chaos of alarming proportions including destroying a million dollar dinosaur skeleton. In this episode Michelle actually accepts responsibly for knocking over the dinosaur after she and Denise are playing tag. Aside from that fun time, DJ and Stephanie go head to head arguing over an old baseball card of Joey's that may or may not be worth ten thousand dollars (it's been in his car for years, I don't think it's worth one hundred dollars if Joey's car is kept anything like his bedroom closet). Stephanie found it while cleaning out his trunk to earn money for a new bike. DJ's obsession with limo's is a bit much, but we all know she got to hang out in Tommy's Page's limo back in Season 5 when she took him on a tour of San Francisco in the episode Crushed. I hope you all enjoy the podcast episode and join me in the new year 2023 for a new Jesse Series to kick off 2023. To EMAIL The Podcast GO TO: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com

Happy Wonder (Almost) Wednesday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I wrapped up my coverage of Season 1 with S1E22: Love, Dean, which aired on May 18, 2022. In this episode It's the end of the school year, and summer excitement is all around; Bill and Lillian each receive major career opportunities; Dean and Keisa take shelter together as a tornado tears through. This was a good way to wrap up the first Season. I enjoyed getting to know these characters and watch them grow and develop and look forward to seeing their new adventures in Season 2. I hope you enjoyed going along on this journey with me and will continue when I start up with Season 2 in 2024. Until then feel free to go back and revisit the show on Hulu or Disney Plus and re-listen to my reviews in the meantime until next time. Have a great 2023!

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Well, after two years we've finally come to the end of Season 2. Today, I covered S2E24: Double Wedding, which aired on May 23, 1987. In this episode the Lawsons decide to renew their wedding vows, and of course just like we'd expect the Brindles gotta horn in on Ted and Joan's romantic gesture. As far as finale's go, this one was good. We get to say good to Bonnie for quite a while since she only returns for one more episode in late Season 3 Episode 14, which I won't be getting to until sometime in 2024. Also the Lawsons duck out of their vow renewal ceremony after the Brindles bum rush it and find a chapel and have a justice of the peace perform. Ted gives the sweetest vows to Joan. I was worried since they left the Brindles and guests alone in their house that they would come home to find it trashed, but we never find out since we end credits in the church. I got into a run down of episodes for Season 3 and I gotta admit I am psyched! A lot of serious after school special episodes, like a school drug bust, a child abduction, a child with leukemia, a child who's deaf, and an episode about Book-It and I believe we get to meet Vanessa the evil robot played also by Tiffany Brissette in a dual role. As well as the return of that beeotch Jessica who I can't stand and adorable Warren. 2023 and 2024 are going to be great years for Season 3 of Small Wonder. I hope you enjoy the Podcast Episode and see you in January 2023.

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the first episode in the Jesse & Michelle Double Feature which I chose for December, Full House S5E19: The Devil Made Me Do It, which aired on February 18, 1992. In this episode the temptation to fiddle with Jesse's forbidden music equipment is too great for Michelle; but when Jesse lands her in hot water for it, the little devil in her wants to burn him. Elsewhere, Kimmy and Stephanie are at each other's throats, and it's up to D.J. to referee the proceedings. I really liked this episode! Jesse and Michelle's relationship is put to the test when Michelle plays with Jesse's music equipment in his studio after he recently forbade her from doing so. She calls him "Uncle Tattletale" after Jesse explains to Danny what happened. Michelle of course is punished and she chooses to retaliate after being visited by her consciences in physical form, "Good Michelle" and "Bad Michelle". It's a battle of wills as "Bad Michelle" encourages her to run away from home to teach "Uncle Tattletale" a lesson and "Good Michelle" tries to reign Michelle in and keep her from going over to the dark side. Michelle winds up at Teddy's house where we meet his family including his sister (played by his real life older twin sisters Tia and Tamara Mowry) who would later star in their own TGIF ABC sitcom Sister, Sister. I immediately recognized Teddy's dog Sparky from earlier in Season 4 and also the 1992 Movie Beethoven. I also recognize the "Old Maid" Card game that Michelle and Teddy are playing because we had the same cards at my Grandparents house. The Old Maid card had a crease down the middle and we could always tell who had it whenever we played. Jesse has a creative way to teach Michelle a lesson of her own to make her think twice about running away again and I for one think it was brilliant. On the Plot B side, DJ is sick of her best friend Kimmy and her younger sister Stephanie arguing all the time, so she forces a sit down with them until they can agree. It backfires in DJ's face, because the one thing that Kimmy and Steph agree on is how DJ's habits annoy them beyond belief to the point where DJ feels like the third wheel when Kimmy invites Steph out for some frozen yogurt. Join me later this month when I cover the finale episode in the Jesse & Michelle Double Feature, Full House S6E18: Please, Don't Touch The Dinosaur, which aired on February 23, 1993. In this episode Jesse and Danny both get volunteered to take Michelle's class on a field trip to the museum. Jesse's rowdier bunch of kids cause trouble and end up destroying a dinosaur skeleton. Meanwhile, Stephanie and D.J. get into an argument over who owns a baseball card worth $2,000. Have a great weekend everyone! TO EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com

Hey Full House Podcast Listeners, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered Full House S5E24: Girls Will Be Boys, which aired on April 28, 1992. In this episode When her best friend Teddy ignores her for being a girl, Michelle decides she wants to become a boy instead. Meanwhile, Jesse gets a part on Joey's TV show, and DJ catches Stephanie listening in on her phone call. This was a good episode. I really liked it. Michelle loses Teddy (temporarily) to Aaron (Mr. Bossypants) when Aaron starts hassling Teddy about playing/hanging out with girls which apparently at age 5 is something boys just aren't allowed to do (according to Aaron). Teddy who will not stand up to Aaron follows his lead leaving Michelle to ponder, what do I do now, since I lost my best friend? She takes it upon herself to start dressing like a boy since that's the only way to get Teddy to hang with her. During a play session of playing guns (can't get more 90's then that, along with Michelle's idea of playing house)Teddy gets fake injured and Michelle morphs into rescue nurse mode. Upon seeing this Aaron calls her out on not being a "real boy" since boys can't be nurses and he takes Teddy who looks at Michelle and says "Nice try Michelle", like she was attempting to fool him. She was desperate to hang out and changing her clothes and attitude was the only way Teddy would respond. Danny explains that what's going on with Teddy is a stage or a phase and he'll grow out of it, so in the mean time she just has to ride this out. Danny starts to tell Michelle that one day boys will want to hang out with her all the time and that's when Danny goes through his "keep away from my daughter stage". This statement (which I get was played for laughs) just goes way over Michelle's head, she looks at Danny and tells him " I just want my best friend back". Luckily for her, Teddy has finally tired of Aaron's bossiness but when he tried to be friends again Michelle has already tied herself to her new best friend Denise. Michelle explains to Teddy he is going through a stage and doesn't want to play with girls and that's why they can't hang out. Teddy begs Michelle to take him back and she relents happily cheering "Yay, the stage is over". All the three kids ice out Aaron who is now friendless until they give in and tell him we're playing hide and seek and you're up first, so go hide and we'll find you. Michelle whispers to Teddy "Maybe" We can't forget DJ's payback on Stephanie for listening on her phone calls. She makes Steph so paranoid that DJ is out to get her that Stephanie jumps whenever DJ comes up behind her and freaks when she thinks DJ is going to feed her a poisonous brownie. I have to hand it to DJ, this plan was brilliant! Have a great week everyone! I hope you enjoy this Podcast Episode! To Email The Podcast GO TO: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com

Happy Wonder Wednesday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered S1E23: Where No Dean Has Been Before, which aired on May 11, 2022. In this episode Dean tries to impress Keisa's cool new boyfriend by inviting him and his friends to a party Kim is throwing while Bill and Lillian are away for the night; things get out of hand just as Bill and Lillian arrive home. This was a fun episode. I really liked Keisa's new boyfriend Broderick, he was a sweetheart and actually has something in common with Dean other than the fact they both like Keisa, they're both fans of the show Star Trek. I can't believe that Lillian was willing to go to work for a company that was going to dictate how she dressed in order to impress new clients and also not be allowed to speak her mind. Luckily, she makes the right choice in the end. Dean throws a party in the basement and it gets out of hand, no surprise there, since Dean can't find the ability to stand up for himself. Join me next month for the Season 1 Finale, S1E24: Love, Dean, which aired on May 18, 2022. In this episode, It's the end of the school year, and summer excitement is all around; Bill and Lillian each receive major career opportunities; Dean and Keisa take shelter together as a tornado tears through. Hope you enjoy the Podcast Episode! Have a great rest of the week! To EMAIL The Podcast GO TO: lbomwonderyearspodcast@gmail.com

Happy Turkey Day Full House Podcast Listeners, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the last episode in the Michelle and Friends Series, Full House S8E4: I've Got A Secret, which aired on October 18, 1994. In this episode Danny causes problems for Michelle when she joins a secret club. D.J. becomes jealous when Kimmy dates her former boyfriend. Jesse and Rebecca agree to divulge the names of their past loves. I enjoyed this episode, but I feel this is just a repeat of the same lesson in Be Your Own Best Friend from Season 7, when Michelle gets dumped by Teddy and Denise as friends. But honestly, the reasoning or rules for how to obtain this Super Fortress are beyond ridiculous. It's $39, no kid in 1994 under the age of 10 has that kind of dough unless it's a holiday or their birthday or they managed to save their allowance for months on end and not spend any of it (highly unlikely). Also if one of them does manage to get this crazy popular (think 80's Cabbage Patch Doll/90's Tickle Me Elmo) play figure set, then said kid gets to be president of the newly formed club Mighty Mutant Super Kids (sounds like a mash up of Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and maybe Captain Planet thrown in for the earth saver kids, like Derek, he looks like he cares about the environment and Michelle too.) Danny flat out turns her down when she asks for the money and Joey has supposed intel that a toy store is getting a shipment of these hard to get toys because he's got his name on a few waiting lists. Danny spills the beans about the club to Michelle's friends when he brings them popcorn. The kids all turn on Michelle and remind her she was sworn to secrecy about revealing the club's existence to the outside world (meaning adults, siblings, other kids etc.)She gets kicked out in less than 24 hours of the club being created. Lisa practically forces Michelle to rip out her toenails and eat them. (GAH!, I'm still gagging from that). BTW, she didn't have too. Danny, Jesse and Joey figure the only way to get Michelle back in the club is to get this toy. They get to the store and it's like Black Friday on steroids. There's trampling, stomping on backs, beatings with purses. The guys are lucky they made it out in one piece,everyone's safe (except for Jesse's comb Mr. Goodpart and some of Danny's ribs). Danny is desperate so he goes the route of Andy's Mom from the 1980's horror movie Child's Play and pays a guy in the alley for a Super Fortress (not a Good Guy doll). When he delivers it, it's not wrapped in plastic and the other kids discover to their horror that it's a cheap knock off playset with U.S. President Play Figures instead of their favorite MMSK characters like Super Mandy and the Evil Lord Fungo. Michelle's fed up and threatens to start her own club with her and only her (maybe Comet can join)when the kids start laughing at Danny's torn and dirty shirt and whatever else he want through to get this thing. He paid $75 (that's $75 in 1994, may as well have been $150) to a guy in an alley for this cheap imitation. Danny tells the kids the whole point of having a club is to hang out because you all like each other. They agree with him and let Michelle back in the club. Side Plot with Jesse and Becky making each other jealous with lists of past loves was not that interesting and just ate up screen time. Have a great holiday everyone (if you celebrate it)!

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today, I covered the second to last episode of Season 2, S2E23: Vicki Goodwrench, which aired on May 16, 1987. In this episode Vicki turns out to be a wizard at car repairs. I thought this was an ok episode, maybe a smidge of a dud. But much better than the worst episode I feel of Season 2, Top Secret. Jamie wants to make extra money and so he has Vicki go with him to an auto garage and offer himself and Vicki as a package deal to clean up the place. Jamie sits on his a$$ sucking down small plastic containers of OJ, while Vicki does all the work. Of course he does, because he's Jamie and he's lazy like nobody's business. Vicki turns out to be a genius at fixing cars at least at the beginning after Jamie has her read a repair manual, which she reads in a matter of seconds. Reminds me of Arnold in the movie Twins when he reads the owners manual of a car and learns how to drive in less than a couple hours. You will hear me repeatedly complain about Ted's 1980's pedo glasses. I can't remember him ever wearing them and hope he never does again in the rest of the series. Fingers crossed! Join me next week when I cover the Season 2 Finale, S2E24: Double Wedding, which aired on May 23, 1987. In this episode The Lawsons decide to renew their wedding vows. Have a good week everyone!

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast, Today, I covered the next episode in the Michelle and Friends Series, with Full House S7E21: Be Your Own Best Friend, which aired on April 5, 1994. In this episode Danny suggests Michelle's class do a project of drawing their best friend. But when Michelle can't decide whether to draw Teddy or Denise, they quit being friends with her. I enjoyed this episode. It was cool to see Teddy return to the show after a year and a half away. His last episode S6E2: The Long Goodbye which aired on September 29, 1992 and then this episode S7E21: Be Your Own Best Friend which aired on April 5, 1994. He's been away for a while. I wonder if Michelle and Teddy exchanged letters over that time. My guess is no, otherwise she probably would have known he was moving back. Unless he wanted to surprise her and boy, was she. Poor Denise feels left in the dust, actually no, she fights for her new first place best friend role, that is until she and Teddy decide to compete for the top spot of best friend in Michelle's life. Granted Michelle doesn't make it easy on either of them, as they start offering whatever they have on them, Teddy offers up his Snickles Candy (which are fake and look like Nerds Candy)(a box that has been in his pocket all day, gross!) Denise offers up her scrunchie (she was really reaching the bottom of the barrel there since she takes it right out of her hair and hands it to Michelle),Michelle starts eyeing Denise's Jasmine pencil case and then things take a turn as Denise wises up and tell Michelle she doesn't care if the pencil case would go great with Michelle's Abu Eraser, she's not giving it to her, Teddy follows suit and then the two team up as besties leaving Michelle with no best friend for the Best Friend Project at school. The second story follows Jesse and Joey and Joey's girlfriend Roxie who leave Jesse out of his own Radio Show when they monopolize the airwaves with their witty chatter. Jesse tries to compete by inviting Becky on the show and then the it turns into an absolute mess, with two conversations going on and my guess is the listeners are changing the station to one that plays actual music. Join me next week, when I cover the final episode in the Michelle and Friends Series, Full House S8E4: I've Got a Secret, which aired on October 18, 1994. In this episode Danny causes problems for Michelle when she joins a secret club. D.J. becomes jealous when Kimmy dates her former boyfriend. Jesse and Rebecca agree to divulge the names of their past loves. Have a great weekend everyone! I hope you enjoy the podcast! To EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I kick off the month of November with the Michelle and Friends Series, starting with Full House S6E2: The Long Goodbye, which aired on September 29, 1992. In this episode Michelle and Danny both mourn their long-distance relationships. Michelle learns that Teddy is moving , not to another city, but to another state entirely. We're talkin' Texas, guys! My current home state. He's actually moving to Amarillo, haven't been, but whenever I hear it mentioned I think of Teddy. Granted us reg OG Full House watchers, we know Teddy comes back in Season 7. In fact that's the next episode in this series. So anyway, Michelle is heartbroken, we're talking Howie goes back to Nebraska from Season 2, heartbroken. Well, at least Howie got off easy, I mean, it's not like Michelle at two years old, tied him to a chair, hoping his family would leave without him. Poor Teddy, this isn't easy for him either. Also in this episode, we see the last of Pinky the Pig, Michelle had given him to Jesse as a goodbye present in the Season 4 Episode, Fuller House (not to be confused with the spin-off sequel show in 2016). When Jesse and Becky move into the attic, he gives the stuffed pig back to Michelle. Pinky heads to Texas with Teddy and Michelle welcomes into her stuffed animal family, Furry Murray. I was tearing up at their goodbye scene. Because like them, I too, have lost friends, some moved away to another town or school district, other moved out of state, some lost touch and some returned to my life down the road. Now, let's get to Danny and Vicki, who now in Season 6 are adjusting to a long distance relationship, he's in San Fran and she's in Chicago. It's tough, but they are determined to see it through, granted in Season 7 she takes a job as a network news anchor in New York and she and Danny break off their engagement as well as end their relationship. Join me next week in the Battle of Michelle, she's caught in a tug-o-war between her new friend Denise and old friend Teddy, who's moved back from Texas, when I cover Full House S7E21: Be Your Own Best Friend, which aired on April 5, 1994. In this episode Danny suggests Michelle's class do a project of drawing their best friend. But when Michelle can't decide whether to draw Teddy or Denise, they quit being friends with her. Whoever said you can't have two best friends is wrong, IMO. Have a great weekend everyone! To EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com

Happy Halloween Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today in the spirit of the holiday I decided to cover a spooky Alvin and the Chipmunks Episode, this one comes from Season 7 and aired in September 1989, entitled Nightmare On Seville Street. In this episode on a Saturday afternoon Dave takes the boys to the movies to see the Fuzzie Bunnies: The Homecoming Movie although Alvin really wants to see Hideous Harold PART X1 (11). As soon as Dave leaves and the boys head to their theater, Alvin makes a detour for the horror film and Simon and Theodore have no choice but to follow him in. They all get freaked out, since this movie looks like a combination of Nightmare On Elm Street (Alvin reference's Nightmare Land) we see this old man with a gray mustache wearing a slicker and hat (similar to the fisherman in I Know What You Did Last Summer), (he also has a rake garden trowel for a hand)but this guy is burning down small cabins which gave me Friday the 13th vibes (even if I've never seen the movie). Dave picks the boys up from the movie and they walk out of the theater with their hair standing on end (it's actually kind of cute). The boys go home and once it gets dark out they're afraid to go to sleep, Dave still has no idea they saw the horror movie. Then the lights go out and Dave has to change a fuse which is located outside the house. Not surprising he gets locked out and finds a slicker and hat identical to Hideous Harold's hanging on the side of the house. Did I mention it's raining and storming outside like the world is coming to an end. The boys notice who they think is Hideous Harold but it's just Dave trying to get their attention to let him back in the house (he even climbs on the roof to get to their window on the second floor of the house. The boys since they can't sleep, rig up a device that will take out this supposed creepy man complete with a bat as a battering ram and a net. There is even a song about capturing Hideous Harold. It's kinda catchy. Luckily for Dave, he finally convinces the boys that it's him and then to teach them a lesson he makes the boys spend a whole Saturday cleaning the house top to bottom. I hope you enjoy the Podcast Episode and have a safe Halloween and great week!

Happy Halloween Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back on My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I'm covering another Bonus Episode, Wishbone S2E1: Halloween Hound The Legend of Creepy Collars Part 1 & 2, which aired on October 15, 1997. In this episode PART 1: "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow' dominates as Halloween comes to Oakdale. Wishbone imagines himself as Ichabod Crane while Joe and his two schoolmates participate in Oakdale's scavenger hunt. In this episode PART 2: Wishbone and the gang participate in Oakdale's first annual Halloween scavenger hunt, complete with a haunted house. I really love this episode, it's perfect for this time of year. It kicks off Season 2 of the show with a 1 Hour Special Halloween 2 Part Episode and the book featured for this episode is The Legend of Sleepy Hallow by Washington Irving. Ichabod Crane's fear of ghosts or spirits as he refers to them match up perfectly with Joe's (Wishbone's owner) fear of being unlucky (Wishbone missing Joe's basketball practice, Joe wearing smelly socks for "good luck" and a black cat crossing his path)and the old Murphy place (which is just an old run down house)as well as the past two Halloweens being "unlucky" for him (one year he sprained his ankle and couldn't play basketball and the other Halloween he came down with Chicken Pox). Joe's Mom along with his friends (David and Sam) tell him this bad luck nonsense is just all in Joe's head and he's making a big deal out of it. Honestly Joe's incessant whining about Halloween being bad luck for him was getting annoying. He kept saying how he just wanted to stay home and help his Mom hand out Halloween candy or keep an eye on Wishbone, both his friends weren't having it, since they signed him up with them for scavenger hunt which takes them all over Oakdale and ends at the "old Murphy Place, thus Joe facing his fears. Just like Ichabod and the Headless Horseman. I hope you all enjoy this Podcast Episode and have a safe and Happy Halloween (If you celebrate it).

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I am bringing to you a Bonus Episode of one of my favorite shows growing up, besides Full House. I covered the PBS 1995 show Wishbone, all about the little dog with the big imagination. If you grew up in the 90's like me you definitely watched this show and if you were a teenager like me in 1995 you probably also had a crush on Wishbone's owner Joe Talbot like I did. The episode I decided to cover is Wishbone S1E9: Digging Up The Past, which aired on October 17, 1995. In this episode Joe, Ellen and Wishbone meet a woman who lived in their home over 40 years ago, who comes to see the house and find the treasures she left behind as a kid. Wishbone imagines himself as Rip Van Winkle who falls asleep for 20 years and doesn't recognize anything or anybody, and can't get anyone to believe who he is. I chose this episode because it is one of my favorites, it's all about going back and rediscovering your past, and if you're like Dr. Brown (not that Dr. Brown from Back to the Future) you revisit your old childhood home. And if you're lucky the new owners might let you inside and look around and if you're really lucky, you just might be able to check out your old bedroom. The classic story that parallels is of Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving. Since these episodes are only 30 minutes long, we only get 15 minutes of Oakdale and Wishbone's story and 15 minutes of a classic literature book giving us just enough nuts and bolts of the story to get the gist of it or check the book out on our own time if we want to know the complete story and fill in the blanks that the show doesn't cover. I hope you enjoy this Podcast Episode! I plan to cover some more episodes of Wishbone in 2023. Maybe even start up my own Wishbone Podcast at some point, We'll see. Have a great weekend everyone and Happy Reading!

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I conclude the Joey and the Girls Series with Full House S7E9: The Day of the Rhino, which aired on November 9, 1993. In this episode Michelle and her friends get ripped off after sending in their money for giant plush Rigby rhino dolls and confront Rigby during a public appearance at the mall. Vicki and Becky teach D.J. a lesson how guys will say anything to compliment women's appearances, while Jesse and Danny teach Steve how to comment women's looks tactfully. I really enjoyed this episode. Joey taught Michelle a valuable lesson about standing up for yourself when it comes to being taken advantage of after spending your hard earned money on something that turns out, isn't as advertised. DJ and Steve teach the adults, Danny, Vicki, Jesse and Becky a thing or two about honesty and not just telling someone what you think they want to hear, to spare their feelings. Join me in November when I kick off the new series, Michelle and Friends with Full House S6E2: The Long Goodbye, which aired November 29, 1992.

Happy Wonder Wednesday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered S1E20: Bill's New Gig, which aired on April 20, 2022. In this episode Bill is excited to have made tenure at the university, only to find that his focus on career and family has cost him a spot in his band; Bruce adjusts to living at home. I enjoyed this episode. I totally got vibes of Full House when Bill gets kicked out of his own band and replaced. Just like in Full House Season 8, when the Rippers dropped Jesse and joined up with Barry Williams of The Brady Bunch Fame as their new lead singer. Bill goes out on his own and ends of playing piano for a woman named Janice, whos sultry ways make for an interesting family outing when the Williams family comes out for Bill's debut as a piano player for this new female lounge singer. Let's just say Dean takes matters into his own hands when he thinks this woman is putting the moves on Bill and disrupting his parent's marriage. I really enjoyed Bill and Lillian collaborating on his song writing. Seeing Bruce almost move in with his girlfriend Tammy who has a kid gave me serious OG Wonder Years Season 6 Wayne and Bonnie vibes. Join me next month when I cover S1E21: Where No Dean Has Been Before, which aired on May 11, 2022. In this episode Dean tries to impress Keisa's cool new boyfriend by inviting him and his friends to a party Kim is throwing while Bill and Lillian are away for the night; things get out of hand just as Bill and Lillian arrive home. Have a great week and I'll see you in November! To EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: lbomwonderyearspodcast@gmail.com

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, in honor of Elias Harger's (Max Fuller) birthday (tomorrow), I covered Fuller House S1E8: Secrets, Lies and Firetrucks, which aired on February 26,2016. In this episode when Max learns to lie, he also learns that lies can backfire. Meanwhile, the ladies of the house fall in love with secrets. I really enjoyed this episode. It was cute with Cosmo chewing up the Tanner Couch and Baby Tommy constantly bouncing in his playpen. Also seeing Danny with his grandkids was so sweet. The Sofa Jacket that Stephanie makes for Danny is awesome! I love it! Join me next week when I cover the final episode in the Joey and the Girls Series with Full House S7E9: The Day of the Rhino, which aired on November 9, 1993. In this episode Michelle and her friends get ripped off after sending in their money for giant plush Rigby rhino dolls and confront Rigby during a public appearance at the mall. Vicki and Becky teach D.J. a lesson how guys will say anything to compliment women's appearances, while Jesse and Danny teach Steve how to comment women's looks tactfully.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today, I covered Small Wonder S1E22: The Cat's Meow, which aired on May 9, 1987. In this episode Vicki becomes jealous of an electronic cat. I thought this was a funny episode, Bonnie was hilarious even though I can't stand her. CPS needs to be called on The Brindles, because I feel Harriet is in an unsafe environment. If Vicki is jealous of this cat can you imagine what she would do to a baby if Ted and Joan had one. This idea frightens me to the core. Joan mentions in this episode wanting a little baby girl and giving Vicki a little sister. Join me next month when I cover S2E23: Vicki Goodwrench, which aired on May 16, 1987. In this episode Vicki turns out to be a wizard at car repairs. Have a great week everyone!

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the next episode in the Joey and the Girls Series, Full House S5E13: Easy Rider, which aired on December 3, 1991. In this episode Michelle decides that she wants to learn how to ride a two-wheel bike with out training wheels. she asks her dad for help but he has to spend the day with co-star Vicky so that they can plan their week. However, all they can talk about is the kiss they shared the week before. Meanwhile Joey offers to help Michelle learn to ride, and she agrees, but he uses the classic technique of letting go, and Michelle falls into a bush. She yells at him and says that she cant trust him anymore. So when they get home Joey, as Bulwinkle, says that he can help her clean her scrape. She gives in and then it stings and she yells at him again. Becky and Jesse decide to take the twins on their first car ride. A spontaneous one. But after two hours of packing up and getting prepared spontaneous isn't exactly the word to describe their trip. I really enjoyed this episode. It reminded me of when I got my training wheels off when I was 7. I rode my two wheel bike down a hill. I still say that Joey should have had Michelle learning how to ride the two wheeler in the backyard on the grass so if she did fall it would be on the grass and not in a bush or a heavily trafficked sidewalk at the park. It's like once you master that then you move on to the sidewalk. Danny and Vicki decide if the kiss they shared means anything like if they're in a relationship or just co workers who were caught up in the moment. Jesse and Becky turn a two hour car ride of visiting Becky's Aunt Ida and visiting the Harley shop into journey across the United States of America with deciding what to pack for the twins you'd think they'd be gone for a month. Rain gear, Sun hats and blankets, oh my! If the weather changes that frequent in the course of two hours we're all doomed! Can't forget those Elvis Mobiles! Ya know what they say... never leave home with out it! Join me next week when I cover the last episode in the Joey and the Girls Series. Full House S7E9: The Day of the Rhino, which aired November 9, 1993. In this episode Michelle and her friends get ripped off after sending in their money for giant plush Rigby rhino dolls and confront Rigby during a public appearance at the mall. Vicki and Becky teach D.J. a lesson how guys will say anything to compliment women's appearances, while Jesse and Danny teach Steve how to comment women's looks tactfully.

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm kicking off a new Series for the month of October, Joey and the Girls, the first episode Full House S3E18 Mr. Egghead, which aired on February 16, 1990. In this episode Joey gets a job as a guest host on an educational television show for children, where a prop injures Stephanie. I really enjoyed this episode. Especially since this is the last time we see Walter, that kid annoys me. He's so argumentative in this episode to the point he almost comes off an entirely different character. Joey crashes and burns as the new Mr. Egghead once Stephanie's nose is accidently broken by an experiment, I mean he would have had the job in the bag if not for this mishap he was pretty entertaining. Science and comedy who wouldn't love that combination? We see Michelle make an inside out PB&J, trust me , it is that gross? Stephanie doing everything she can to avoid picture day, skipping school, guilting Joey, but lucky for her, the guys come up with a way that makes her feel less embarrassed. Danny tries to fight a traffic ticket in court with DJ as his witness since she was in the car and tells us the truth of what really happened. If you're too distracted by cleaning the dust between your radio buttons to notice you're in the wrong lane, here's a simple solution ,get off the road. Pull into a parking lot and take care of it there or better yet he could have had DJ do that for him. Problem solved, no ticket. Instead he chooses to fight it, spoiler alert: he loses and ends up paying more than he would have if he just paid the ticket. Join me next week when I cover Full House S5E13; Easy Rider, which aired on December 3, 1991. In this episode Michelle decides that she wants to learn how to ride a two-wheel bike with out training wheels. she asks her dad for help but he has to spend the day with co-star Vicky so that they can plan their week.

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, in honor of Dave Coulier's Birthday, I covered Full House S6E9: Nice Guys Finish First, which aired on November 24, 1992. In this episode Stonewall Binkley, an old rival of Joey's, humiliates him on his and Jesse's radio program, and challenges him to an upcoming hockey game; Joey's hesitant at first but ultimately decides to have his revenge on Stonewall. This was an enjoyable episode. Joey gets a blast from the past when an old nemesis surprises on air on the Rush Hour Renegades and start ripping into him about an old college hockey game Joey lost. Talk about someone who loves to live in the past, this Brinkley guy. The rivalry is still going strong in Brinkley's eyes as he tells Joey "I look forward to humiliating you all over again at the charity hockey game. When did a charity hockey game turn into a I'm better than you contest? Couldn't stand this guy. Joey does his best to be a good sport and not let himself get riled, but Brinkley pushes him too far and then, it is on! Seeing Jesse on skates was hilarious and also him commentating on the game not knowing anything about hockey. Luckily Becky swoops in to save the day. Also we have the side mini plots of DJ learning freeway driving and Michelle afraid of the tabloid Goat Boy from Norway. Join me next month for the new Series, Joey and the Girls, when I cover Full House: S3E18: Mr. Egghead, which aired on February 16, 1990.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today, I covered S2E21: Wally the Wimp, which aired on February 28, 1987. In this episode Pro-wrestler, Jesse Ventura, is invited to the Lawson house for dinner. He has a surprise for Ted, as years before he was the nerdy little kid named Wally who Ted teased in college. I liked this episode, it was fun, especially seeing Ted get his a$$ kicked by a pro wrestler Jesse Ventura (aka Wally the Wimp). He deserved it! All the crap he pulled on Wally back in college, at least Joan was nice to him, even if she did go out on pity dates with him. Turns out Wally/Jesse is the first person I believe so far anyway that Ted has revealed Vicki's secret identity as a robot. Join me next month when I cover S2E22: The Cat's Meow, which aired on May 9, 1987. In this episode Vicki becomes jealous of an electronic cat. Have a great week everyone!

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back on My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered an Alvin and the Chipmunks episode. Romancing Miss Stone. In this episode Alvin develops a crush on his teacher, he even asks her out and thankfully she turns him down telling him he's too young, not "this is illegal". Alvin's blood is boiling when he witnesses Dave ask out Miss Stone and he blackmails Simon and Theodore into sabotaging the date. Which of course fails, because the next morning Dave says he had a fantastic time (yeah, we can all guess what happened). Honestly we don't need to guess that hard. Alvin challenges Dave to an old fashioned duel (with water balloons) for the heart of Miss Stone and Dave actually accepts the challenge. Dave, why are you encouraging this? End of story, Alvin accepts defeat and falls for his babysitter. A beautiful black girl named Sandy who has no lines. WTH! Writers couldn't give her a line, at all? Overall, good episode, thankfully it didn't turn into a Mary Kay Letournau situation, winding up with Alvin a father twice over before age 14. Gross! Have a great week everyone!

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered Full House S4E16: Stephanie Gets Framed, which aired on January 25, 1991. In this episode Steve Urkel comes to town. He helps Stephanie deal with her new glasses, but when she takes all of Joey's funny glasses and disrupts the class with them, she realizes she took it too far. Jesse is also having trouble deciding a best man for his wedding. I enjoyed this episode. Especially getting to see Steve Urkel another beloved TGiF show character interact with characters from another show. Steve comes to town not only to annoy his cousin Julie and DJ, but to give advice to Danny who's sulking around the house playing sad songs on his guitar because Jesse picked Joey to be his best man at his wedding instead of him. Steve basically tells Danny to "get over it" and "move on". Stephanie who's a new owner her first pair of eye glasses is feeling her already low self confidence sink even lower, but thanks to Steve's advice "the trick is to make them laugh with you instead of laugh at you", backfires on her, she winds up disrupting the class with Joey's many pairs of comedic goofy glasses and having to write a hundred times "I will not disrupt the class." Michelle is given DJ's hand me down piggybank and goes around the house shaking people down for coins to add to her new money collection. When she hears that familiar ice cream truck jingle she all but takes a hammer to her precious piggybank to splurge on a sweet treat. Little does Michelle know that if you pull the plug or cork out of the bottom the money should fall right out. I wouldn't think she would have had enough for anything that ice cream truck was selling. Granted these are early 90's prices, but if she has less than 50 cents, she better start digging in the freezer for the pudding or push pops. Join me next week when we celebrate Dave Coulier's birthday (Joey Gladstone)with Full House S6E9: Nice Guys Finish First, aired on November 24, 1992. In this episode Stonewall Binkley, an old rival of Joey's, humiliates him on his and Jesse's radio program, and challenges him to an upcoming hockey game; Joey's hesitant at first but ultimately decides to have his revenge on Stonewall.

Description Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the first episode in the Back To School Double Feature Part 2 with Full House S4E14: Working Girl, which aired on January 4, 1991. In this episode DJ's grade suffer when she takes a part-time job. I really liked this episode, DJ thinks that to be cool you have to have the newest clothes this includes shoes like the brand new "Blowouts" which sound similar to Rebook Pumps with the basketball on the front that you pump to tighten the shoe. DJ takes a job at a photography studio in the mall as an assistant. I can't imagine she works more than 10 hours a week since she's 14 and in school, but either way it interferes with her school work and causes her already terrible grade in science to slip lower to failing. She just proves to DJ that you can't have a job (which she wants to prove she can be a responsible adult) and go to school at the same time. I personally would never trust a guy that runs a photo studio out of a mall, but that's just me. He gave off creepy vibes.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today, I covered S2E20: Look Into My Eyes, which aired on February 21, 1987. In this episode Joan's high-school friend is not what Ted expects. Thanks to this synopsis, I spend a good half of this episode confused because what I'm seeing in this episode has nothing to do with the synopsis. IMDB has never steered me wrong, until now. This episode is actually about Vicki taking what she has seen on TV (a hypnotist) and applying it to real life. This episode, I've got to say is one of the funniest episodes of this show I have ever covered since starting this podcast. We see the actors (The Lawson Family) acting outside of how their characters would normally act (thanks to Vicki impersonating Mr. Renaldo (the hypnotist) or whatever the guy's name was). We also seen the return of Mrs. Fernwald (this won't be the last time we see her either). She's come to check in with Vicki and to see how she's adjusting after being with the Lawson's for a year. Also she tells them they're being awarded for being to adoptive family or the year or something, so she invites a name to video the Lawson's receiving the award. Thanks to Vicki turning everyone into someone they're not, Ted becomes a monkey, Joan a woman of the night (vamp), Jamie a baby and Mrs. Fernwald a woman who dances the tango. Even the old man with the videotape, Vicki turns him into a dog. Hysterical episode! Join me next month when I cover S2E21: Wally The Wimp, which aired on February 28, 1987. In this episode Pro-wrestler, Jesse Ventura, is invited to the Lawson house for dinner. He has a surprise for Ted, as years before he was the nerdy little kid named Wally who Ted teased in college. Have a great September everyone!

Happy Wonder Wednesday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered The Wonder Years S1E19: Love & War, which aired on April 13, 2022. In this episode when Bruce returns home from Vietnam, the family is shocked to find out he is dating, and eager to share his life with, an older woman with a son; when they learn more about Bruce's last deployment, they come together to support him. I enjoyed this episode, seeing Bruce again and getting to know him a little more and of course the cherry on the sundae, that ending that connects both shows bringing it full circle. At the end of this episode I do a comparison between Bruce and Tammy from the new Wonder Years and Wayne and Bonnie from the OG Wonder Years. Both guys young and in love and moving way to fast. Granted Bruce's reasoning to propose and move in with Tammy came from a place of wanting to do the things that Brian Copper wouldn't have a chance to do like get married and have kids. Bruce decides to continue to date Tammy and be a role model for her son Joey. Wayne on the other hand, wanted to feel needed and thought what he did for Bonnie was love, Sadly, it was one sided. She, I believe, in my opinion used Wayne to make her ex-husband jealous and in the end got back together with him. Join me next month when I cover S1E20: Bill's New Gig, which aired on April 20, 2022. In this episode Bill is excited to have made tenure at the university, only to find that his focus on career and family has cost him a spot in his band; Bruce adjusts to living at home.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered the final Free Willy Movie in the trilogy, Free Willy 3: The Rescue. My least favorite of the three movies. I make this fact know throughout this review. IMO this movie did NOT have to be made. MOVIE SYNOPSIS: 16-year-old Jesse and old friend Randolph try to foil an illegal whaler threatening Willy and his pregnant mate. Couldn't stand Max, the 10 year old stand in for Elvis, Jesse's half brother. He was annoying, so much so I wish we had gotten Elvis back. Maybe he improved in the two years since Free Willy 2. Who am I kidding? I highly doubt that. Drew(Randolph's boss?) I'm guessing is a stand in for Ray from the first movie. She makes it clear she can't stand Jesse (maybe cause he's 16) or she's just thinks this kid's a know-it-all even though he hasn't went to college and doesn't have a degree in marine biology. I feel we spend too much time on Max and his Dad (the whaler/enemy of the movie)I don't really care about their relationship. Not enough time spent with Willy and his girlfriend/mate/soon to be wife/SPOILIER Baby Mama. Jesse's harmonica call to Willy VS. Max's squeaky finger rubbing on the side of a boat call to Willy. HANDS DOWN: Jesse's harmonica call for the WIN! I found it hard to believe that Willy formed a bond with Max at all, what just because he has issues with his Dad. First hero worship because he thinks his Dad hunts salmon when in reality he hunts killer whales and sells the meat to international black market, Norway, Japan and Sweden. Max makes it his mission to turn his Dad into a lover of fish instead of a fisher killer. Will he succeed? Listen to find out, or if you've seen the movie, you already know. Have a great week everyone! I hope you enjoy the review at least to some degree!

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today in honor of John Stamos's (Uncle Jesse) Birthday, I decided to cover Full House: S7E8: Another Opening, Another No Show, which aired on November 3, 1993. In this episode The Smash Club is about to open, but everything that can go wrong does: Joey books the wrong band, Kimmy gives her waitress uniform a "creative" touch, and no one can find the owner, Jesse. Note to Everyone: Don't do what Jesse does in this episode and by that I mean don't wait till the day of opening a new business and still be working out the kinks, for example, the entertainment (granted that mistake is on Joey's part) because he changed the band without Jesse knowing until last minute. He had an expresso machine that barely worked and expected Danny to be able to fix it even though the instructions were only in Italian. Jesse just comes off as a jerk to everyone, yelling at them because he waited to the last minute before making sure everything was ready to go. He screams at Stephanie and Michelle to get off the stage (which they shouldn't have been up there messing with anything to begin with) and then he's trashing on Kimmy's uniform because she had added color designs to a basic black vest. I don't know any jobs that want you making alterations or adornments of any kind to their uniforms since you're representing the face of their company or brand. Jesse and Kimmy get locked in the storeroom and she gives him an earful and he comes to the realization that he's being too hard on everyone. I mean if it were me that he was yelling at I would have left. He should have made sure a week ago that the club was ready to even open. Overall good episode! Danny overloaded on caffeine, hilarious! REM (not that R.E.M) was pretty rockin! Join me next month September, when I kick off the Back to School Double Feature PART 2 with Full House S4E14: Working Girl, which aired on January 4, 1991. In this episode DJ's grades suffer when she takes a part-time job. Have a great weekend everyone! I hope you enjoy the episode ! To EMAIL The Podcast GO TO: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I conclude the SISTERS Double Feature PART 2 with Full House S5E14: Sisters in Crime, which aired on December 17, 1991. In this episode While the guys are at a hockey game, DJ is in charge, but when a hunky guy comes over and asks DJ to the movies, she agrees. Then she realizes that she has to take the girls. At the movies Stephanie spends all of her money at the concession stand, leaving DJ with no money for the tickets. So she asks Kimmy to sneak them in (Kimmy works there). The manager of the movie theater catches them and DJ has to cut the date short. Then she has to teach her sisters to lie so that she doesn't get caught. I really enjoyed this episode. Now, this Steve 1.0 we get(Scott Weinger's first appearance as Steve, only it's Steve Peters not Steve Hale, that comes in Season 6), I was not a fan of this version of Steve he just comes off as unlikeable, nothing like the heart of gold version we all know and love from Season 6-7 and Fuller House Season 1-5). It's interesting watching this episode this time around now that I work at a movie theater. I should have tried to figure how much money was spent on concessions by Stephanie and Michelle in 1991 vs. 2022. I'd say probably over $50 was spent on popcorn, drinks and snacks by 2022 costs. By 1991 costs, I'd say maybe $20 give or take and that's not including the tickets. Becky's Aunt Ida is getting spoiled by seeing the twins twice in two back to back episodes. That's probably twice more than Becky or Jesse parents. I bet anything you know Ida is bragging to Becky's mom about that. I mean this is the same woman who bought Becky the book, Wise Women, Foolish Choices (as a wedding gift). It's clear that none of Becky's family likes Jesse at all, even her cousin in Season 6 says (we all expected Rebecca to do better). I wish we could have see the charity hockey game with Danny, Joey and Jesse that would have been fun to watch. I mean Jesse constantly falling down because he can't skate (we see this in Season 6 Nice Guys Finish First), now seeing Danny on his hands and knees cleaning the slush around the goal crease since he's the goalie as pucks just slide past him into the net, I would have laughed at that. DJ got on my nerves with how selfish she was, doing whatever she had to do in order to go on her date with Steve, including pulling Stephanie away from her homework and taking a sick kid out of the house (to a movie theater no less, so many people especially kids to catch her cold). Then she has them lie on top of it so she won't get in trouble. Join me next week when we celebrate John Stamos's birthday with Full House S7E8: Another Opening, Another No Show, which aired on November 2, 1993. In this episode The Smash Club is about to open, but everything that can go wrong does: Joey books the wrong band, Kimmy gives her waitress uniform a "creative" touch, and no one can find the owner, Jesse.

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the first episode in the SISTERS Double Feature PART 2 for August, Full House S4E21: The Hole-in-the-Wall Gang, which aired on March 1, 1991. In this episode Jesse and Joey set about renovating the attic into a loft for newlyweds Jesse and Becky. DJ and Stephanie argue after Stephanie starts dressing like DJ because she wants to be just like her big sister, which leads to a hole in the wall in Danny's room. How did the hole get there, you ask? Well, you'll just have to listen to find out. I liked this episode. My older sister and I have about the same age difference as DJ and Steph do. The difference, there are a couple. We never shared a room and I never wore my sister's clothes (that I know of) growing up. The fix up the attic into a loft apartment plot with Jesse and Joey was goofy. Whether Joey is good with tools, we may never know because Jesse never gave Joey or us the chance to find out. We do know Joey is good at fixing a sandwich, We see the results.

Happy Fuller House Friday, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, in honor of Michael Campion's (Jackson Fuller) Birthday, I covered Fuller House S4E8: Driving Mr. Jackson, which aired on December 14, 2018. In this episode Jackson and Ramona's first high school party has major consequences, when Jackson got drunk. Becky and Jesse team up to host an awards show, where a big win goes to Matt's head. I enjoyed this episode, but honestly could have done with Gia as well as that adulterous woman from the Mommy and Me class that was constantly hitting on Jesse to the point of getting a little too handsy with him. We really didn't need the Jesse and Becky sideplot IMO because it took away from what could have been a better episode with Jackson facing the consequences from DJ due to his drinking at a party. The talk could have been better like Jesse and DJ in Full House Season 3 Just Say No Way better. Granted it wasn't horrible but, more time could have been spent on it, is all I'm saying. Join me in August when I cover The SISITERS Double Feature PART 2, with Full House S4E21: The Hole-in-the-Wall Gang, which aired on March 1, 1991. In this episode Jesse and Joey set about renovating the attic into a loft for newlyweds Jesse and Becky. DJ and Stephanie argue. Have a great weekend everyone!

Happy Wonder Wednesday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered The Wonder Years S1E18: Goose Grease, which aired on April 6, 2022. In this episode when Dean comes down with chickenpox on his way to a hunting trip with Bill and Grandaddy Clisby, Lillian forces the three of them to quarantine together; Clisby pushes homemade remedies on them out of his mistrust of doctors. Going into this episode, my expectations were low, thinking it was just going to be a "meh" episode, but it surprised me by bringing up a topic I had only just learned more about. The rest of the episode was good and funny and heartwarming to and leaves on a cliffhanger. Here's The Trivia for this episode that goes into more detail about what Grandaddy Clisby was referring to when he mentioned Bill's cousin who was enduring some medical experiment in Tuskegee. When Granddaddy Clisby (Richard Gant) expresses his mistrust of doctors, one of the reasons he gives is: "you remember your cousin Darnell? Well, he's being treated by some doctors over at Tuskegee in some special studies. But I'm telling you: the man is only getting worse!" This is a reference to what was originally called the "Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male" and is now referred to as the "U.S. Public Health Service Syphilis Study at Tuskegee." Lasting from 1932 to 1972, the so-called "study" observed hundreds of Black men both with and without syphilis, always withholding syphilis treatment from them (even after syphilis became completely curable with penicillin) and in come cases never even informing them that they had a communicable disease. Not only did many of the men die avoidable deaths due to advanced, untreated syphilis, in many cases they also inadvertently infected their wives and in-utero children. The "study" is now considered one of the most notorious ethical travesties in the history of American medicine, and it is the basis for many African Americans' mistrust of the medical establishment into the present day (many articles in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic brought up the difficulties that the lingering fear and mistrust fomented by the "study" still posed to public health educators trying to reach Black communities). This show is set in Montgomery, which is only about 40 miles west of Tuskegee, Alabama.; showrunner Saladin K. Patterson spent some of his childhood in Tuskegee. Join me next month when I cover S1E19: Love & War, which aired on April 13, 2022. In this episode when Bruce returns home from Vietnam, the family is shocked to find out he is dating, and eager to share his life with, an older woman with a son; when they learn more about Bruce's last deployment, they come together to support him. Have a great rest of July everyone and I'll be back in August. To EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: lbomwonderyearspodcast@gmail.com

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered the sequel to 1993's Free Willy, 1995's Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home. Movie Synopsis: Teenager Jesse becomes reunited with Willy two years after the whale's jump to freedom as the teenager tries to rescue the killer whale and other orcas from an oil spill. Overall all having watching this movie again after originally seeing it in the theaters back when I was 13 in 1995 and watching it repeatedly when I owned it on VHS, which I got for Christmas that year. I'd say that it definitely holds up, in my mind anyway. Two years after Willy is set free, Jesse has now become acclimated to living with his adoptive parents the Greenwoods. One adorable happy family. Jesse sure has changed and not just his height either. He is beyond girl crazy. And it's a little much this time around to the point where it comes off creepy. Let me give you an example of just how creepy. He meets up with Randolph on his vacation and notices he has a cute assistant, his goddaughter Nadine. I don't know what Jesse's deal is with binoculars and girls but he and Nadine on the ship looking for whales out in the water, he's standing right next to her and turns his binoculars right on her and she's literally standing two feet away from him. 13 year old me loved it of course, because I had such a crush on him at the time. There's a new addition to the cast and Jesse's life when he gets the sad news his mother has passed away, but she left beyond his 8 year old half brother, Elvis. Hmm, Jesse and Elvis. I take it their mom was an Elvis Presley fan. I mean, come on, you don't name your kid Elvis if you don't like Elvis Presley, right? This kid is annoying from the word go, it's like he's trying to be Jesse from the first movie and failing. Count how many times this kid says "Whatever", I think I lost count around 6 or 8. I also realized this kid is like 12 years old playing 8. Now way does he look like an 8 year old. He's also like 6 months younger than me. The movie keeps upping the stakes, from the oil spill, to health problems with one Willy's family members due to the oil spill, a fake rescue/rehabilitation/capture, the oil on fire, kids trapped on small boat in fiery oil water. This is a great sequel to the first, I feel. As far as the third one goes, Free Willy 3: The Rescue, it's a dumpster fire that needed to not exist. But I will cover it next month just not in full detail, more like a brief overview. It will definitely NOT be a three hours long podcast. I wouldn't do that to myself or you all. I hope you all have fun with this one and have a great week.

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the last episode in The Almost Break-Up Double Feature, Full House S6E11: Designing Mothers, which aired on December 8, 1992. In this episode Danny meets Vicki's mother, an interior designer, who redecorates Stephanie and Michelle's room without consulting him and it leads he and Vicki to argue and break up. I really enjoyed this episode. Danny and Vicki never use the words break-up like Jesse and Becky do, they just have a disagreement and she leaves, it's Steph and Michelle that call their newly redecorated room "the break-up room". I, for one love the new room design. I also agree with Danny that Vicki's Mom, Liz had no right to redecorate the girls's room without his permission. Liz told Danny redoing the room was her form of an apology for her out of line questioning him the day before. A simple I'm sorry would have worked too, Liz. Although to be honest it was time for that room to be made over. On a side not Joey and Jesse are dealing with a new boss Allison Axelrod at the radio station and both are divided on how to approach this supposed rumor that she's changing the radio station over from rock 'n roll to classical music. Assigned parking spots is her way to break the ice, which Jesse originally mistakes for a pink slip of getting fired. Poor old man Artie or Arnie does in fact get the axe because as Allison puts it "he's dead weight" since he's been with the station for over 30 years. This poor guy, I'm sure this radio station was his life and he gets let go due to old age, isn't that "ageism"? Join me next week when we celebrate Michael Campion's (Jackson Fuller, Fuller House)'s Birthday with Fuller House S4E8: Driving Mr. Jackson, which aired on December 14, 2018. In this episode Jackson and Ramona's first high school party has major consequences, when Jackson got drunk. Becky and Jesse team up to host an awards show, where a big win goes to Matt's head.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today, I covered S2E19: Victor/Vicki-toria, which aired on February 14, 1987. In this episode Jamie pretends Vicki is a boy so she can play baseball. This was kind of a fun episode. It also felt like everything happened so fast. From Ted practically dislocating his arm while throwing a pitch to Reggie at the baseball diamond, practicing for Jamie's upcoming baseball tryouts. I was surprised that Ted even had time for Jamie at all. It always seems like he's so busy with either his job or wanting to go golfing. Jamie almost immediately thinks of adding Vicki to the baseball team, once he sees her pitch. The only problem is their coach is sexiest and doesn't allow girls on the team. So Jamie and Reggie dress Vicki up as Victor and of course they have to teach her all the ways of being a guy including strutting, hitting on girls and smacking other guys on the butt. Harriet is easily fooled when she pops in Jamie's window and sees Vicki as Victor and is so smitten she's willing to drop her obsessive love for Jamie and apply it to Victor. Total cringe moment for me. Luckily Ted and Joan see Vicki dressed as a boy and figure what Jamie's up to and put a stop to it. I gotta say, anyone with eyes or half a brain in their head can see putting a girl's hair up under a baseball cap, isn't going to fool anyone for long that Vicki is in fact a girl. I mean when we get to the baseball field her fall is practically falling out from underneath the baseball hat. The coach is a moron and desperate that's all I'll say. Jamie grows a conscience and is honest for once. That's basically it! I'll say this episode was not bad compared to some earlier weak sauce episodes of Season 2. Join me in August when I cover S2E20: Look Into My Eyes, which aired on February 21, 1987. In this episode Joan's high-school friend is not what Ted expects. Have a great rest of July and I'll see you in August.

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm kicking off for July The Almost Break-Up Double Feature with Full House S3E3: Breaking Up Is Hard To Do (In 22 Minutes), with aired on October 6, 1989. In this episode Steph loses a tooth in an apple and decides to spoil the tooth fairy with milk and cookies. Michelle celebrates a new sandbox in the garden with a selfish attitude to toys. Danny reacts very casual and even imitates her when a tool of his is in the hands of a boy. Jesse refuses ever to ride a horse again and Becky in return will stay away when Jesse plays with his band. I enjoyed this episode. Jesse being selfish and always has to be right or win an argument, Becky calls him out on it. They decide to part ways when they can't compromise or agree to disagree since Jesse's got a my way or the highway attitude. Lucky for us true love prevails and they work it out. Speaking of attitude, Michelle's got a case of the mine's and gimme's when it comes to a playdate with other kids at her new sandbox in the backyard. Danny doesn't help matters by clearly demonstrating where Michelle picks up this bad habit. Joey saves the day by pointing out we gotta nip this problem where it counts before it gets worse. Henceforth comes the pass the pancake trend of 1989 at the breakfast table the next morning, Sharing is caring after all. Can't forget Stephanie and her rite of passage moment losing a tooth (not her first btw) as we seeing some missing bottom teeth. But the way she goes on about you'd think it was her first and Danny/Tooth Fairy sure gifts her like it is when (supposedly accidently) leaves her $20 under her pillow. Which everyone reacts to like it's a crisp $100 fresh off the printing press. I get it, when I was 7 in 1989 I would have reacted that way too. I got change in a cup when I lost a tooth. We also got a possible mention of Rocket the horse (not by name) when DJ jumps her first fence. Join me later this month when I cover the last episode in The Almost Break-Up Double Feature Full House S6E11: Designing Mothers, which aired on December 8, 1992. In this episode Danny meets Vicki's mother, an interior designer, who redecorates Stephanie and Michelle's room without consulting him and it leads he and Vicki to argue and break up.

Happy Wonder Wednesday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered S1E17: Jobs and Hangouts, which aired on March 23, 2022. In this episode Kim is excited to start her new job as a waitress at the local diner, which Dean adopts as his local hangout; when Kim experiences drama with her friends, she finds unlikely allies in a tough co-worker and her younger brother. This was a good episode. Seeing Kim in a new environment. We got to see a new side of Kim and sometimes we make new friends in unexpected places. I couldn't believe how Dean couldn't see how Kim's so called friends were using him to pump info out of him about Kim and her relationship with Kwame her sometimes boyfriend. Even Dean's friends could see it when they were at the diner with him. I adore Dean's friends, they're so sweet and often have wise words of wisdom to impart when they see Dean is making a fool out of himself and needs help being brought back to Planet Earth. Join me next month when I cover S1E18: Goose Grease, which aired on April 6, 2022. In this episode when Dean comes down with chickenpox on his way to a hunting trip with Bill and Grandaddy Clisby, Lillian forces the three of them to quarantine together; Clisby pushes homemade remedies on them out of his mistrust of doctors.

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the last episode in the Father's Day Series, Full House S7E7: High Anxiety, which aired on October 26, 1993. In this episode Michelle wants Danny to stop treating her like a baby. Jesse can't make decisions about the renovation of his club. I think out of all the three episodes I covered for this series, this episode was the one that Danny got on my nerves the most, especially when it came to that ugly hat that looked like it belonged on the head of an antiqued stuffed bear from the 1920s. GAH, that hat was ugly! He kept insisting, practically forcing Michelle to wear it. I mean he actually came to her school, so he could put it on her head in front of her friends and classmates. He humiliated her. Granted he did bring her lunch that she left behind. The second plot with Jesse being overwhelmed with all the choices of new fixtures for the Smash Club. I felt for him, but he really needed to prioritize his responsibilities and focus on one at a time, then go to the next decision to make. Plus he has a house full of people that could help him. I want a red colored toilet so bad, or electric blue or teal. Do they make those? Overall, good episode. Join me in July when I cover the first episode in the Almost Break-Up Double Feature with Full House S3E3: Breaking Up Is Hard To Do (In 22 Minutes), which aired on October 6, 1989.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today, I covered S2E18: Little Miss Shopping Mall, which aired on February 7, 1987. In this episode against Ted's wishes, Joan enlist Vicki into the "Little Miss Shopping Mall" Beauty Pageant. After finding out that Harriet is also in the pageant, Ted changes his mind. I thought this was a good episode. Sure, I had to suffer through seeing Bonnie in all her pain in the a$$ glory, but it's whatever. Jamie was a no show this episode because according to the trivia for this episode on IMDB Jerry Supiran was out sick. I take it someone has some intel or worked on the show. Join me next month when I cover S2E19: Victor/Vicki-toria, which aired on February 14, 1987. In this episode Jamie pretends Vicki is a boy so she can play baseball. Looks like Jamie is back at it with the sports again. it's been a while, last time I think he played football. Since this episode airs on Valentine's Day, we'll see if there's a reference to this holiday in the episode. Have a great week everyone! TO EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: lbomwonderyearspodcast@gmail.com

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Welcome to Summer, as promised here is my movie review of 1993's Free Willy. Movie Synopsis: When a boy learns that a beloved killer whale is to be killed by the aquarium owners, the boy risks everything to free the whale. I loved this movie as a kid and love it still as an adult. It will always hold a special place in my heart. I've loved animal movies as long as I can remember. Watching it again many years later, I realize it still retains the magic that made me fall in love with the characters and the story as it did during my first theatrical viewing back in 1993. I hope you all enjoy this review and have a great week! To EMAIL THEPODCAST GO TO: lbomwonderyearspodcast@gmail.com

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the second episode in the Father's Day Series, Full House S6E10: I'm Not DJ, which aired on December 1, 1992. In this episode Stephanie wants to pierce her ears so she can wear real earrings like her friends, the two Jennifers. Danny forbids her from doing so until she begins junior high, just like D.J. Steph doesn't want to wait and is so desperate, she turns to Kimmy Gibbler for help, whose brother just happens to work in an earring shop. I enjoyed this episode. The two Jennifers got on my ever loving nerve, and I couldn't understand why Stephanie wanted so desperately to be accepted my them. I agree with Michelle when she looked at the two girls and came to the conclusion "They don't look cool" You're right Michelle, it's because they're not. They were putting down Stephanie's fashion (sunglasses) and her clip on earring, and because those girls thought her things were lame, Stephanie immediately rejects them, like oh if there not good enough for the Jennifers, then I want nothing more to do with them. The side plot with Jesse giving the boys haircuts due to again the two Jennifers wreak havoc on the Tanner house (they refer to Nicky and Alex as cute little girls). I swear I about lose my mind in anger at this. Dave Coulier in this episode has a duel role as Joey's Uncle Jasper the owner of Kiddie Kuts, the children's barber shop. Kimmy has no business using a piercing gun on Stephanie's ears without Danny's permission. Also I don't think she sterilized or disinfected the piercing gun needle before hand either, who knows what body part was last pierced with that thing. No wonder Steph's ears get infected. Gross! Join me next week for the last episode in the Father's Day Series, Full House S7E7: High Anxiety, which aired on October 26, 1993. In this episode Michelle wants Danny to stop treating her like a baby. Jesse can't make decisions about the renovation of his club. I hope you enjoy the Podcast Episode and have a good weekend!

Happy Friday Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today I covered in honor of The Olsen Twins Birthday, Full House S4E17: A Fish Called Martin, which aired on February 1, 1991. In this episode Michelle gets a hard lesson in proper fish care when she gives her new goldfish, Martin, an actual bubble bath and things go belly-up. Meanwhile, Becky teaches the gang to square dance. I enjoyed this episode. Michelle learned a valuable lesson when it comes to caring for a fish and DJ learned to not lower her standards to impression a boy that only cares about one thing... cars. Jesse also learned a lesson, sometimes it's best to compromise instead of argue. Your soon to be wife has family traditions that you may not be into or you think is old fashioned and out of style, but in the ends the future bride gets what she wants. The square dance was so much fun to watch as the family gets into it even though Jesse is being a royal stick in the mud, but by the end he has a smile on his face. The guys also have to explain death to Michelle when it comes to poor Martin the fish, who Michelle according to Joey saying fish like to be clean like people, she gives Martin a bath and the poor fish passes away. Fishes and bubble baths don't mix. This is a hard lesson for Michelle as she learns her actions led to her fish's death and she is beyond scared to get too close to the new fish the guys run out and buy including 10 back up fish in a cabinet on stand by in case the new one expires in 24 hours. Join me next week when I cover the second episode in the Father's Day Series, Full House S6E10: I'm Not DJ, which aired on December 1, 1992.

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm kicking off the Father's Day Series with Full House S5E4: Oh Where Oh Where Has My Little Girl Gone, which aired on October 8, 1991. In this episode After snooping in DJ's room and finding out that a bad rumor about her has been spread around school and she refuses to talk to him about it, Danny worries that their father-daughter bond is fading. Danny's need to know with DJ borders on obsession and he keeps pushing her to talk to him, he finally gives into temptation and sneaks into her sock drawer to find a note to DJ revealing a so not the end of the world problem. He forces her to go bowling hoping she'll open up, then accidentally lets it slip about her secret note and a big blow out fight escalates between father and daughter. Danny really got in my craw this episode. I mean and DJ even tells him "if I have a problem and I can't handle it, I will come to you". Until then let her handle it Danny. I mean, really, what was he going to do, go down to the school and give Todd Mitchell a lecture on respecting women and no means no. Stephanie and Michelle adjust to being roommates. Which was cute. Join me next week when we celebrate the Olsen Twins Birthday (June 17) (Michelle Tanner), when I cover Full House S4E17: A Fish Called Martin, which aired on February 1, 1991.

Hey Wonderlings, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I cover S1E16: The Sleepover, which aired on March 16, 2022. In this episode when Dean learns that Corey's dad, Coach Long, is in the doghouse, he struggles to keep this secret from his friend. I really enjoyed this episode. Turns out Cliff's (Corey's Dad) secret that he was keeping from his wife and Corey wasn't as horrible as I thought. I still wasn't happy that he asked Dean to keep a secret from Corey as it created a wedge between them. It was awesome that Corey won Student of the Week, this is a nice example of showing Dean he can't win at everything and it's important to congratulate the other person (especially if it's your best friend) and not be petty about it. Bill and Lillian get some alone time, which Dean will never understand why that's important, until he himself becomes a husband. Hampton is so adorable! Join me next week when I cover S1E17: Jobs and Hangouts which aired on March 23, 2022. In this episode Kim is excited to start her new job as a waitress at the local diner, which Dean adopts as his local hangout; when Kim experiences drama with her friends, she finds unlikely allies in a tough co-worker and her younger brother.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today, I covered S2E17: Matchmaker, Matchmaker, which aired on January 31, 1987. In this episode Jamie starts a dating service to pay for a bicycle. Wow, like that sentence doesn't spell disaster. This was a weird episode that got really kind of uncomfortable for me at the end. We also get a reprising character from Season 1, Ernie the bully. He's taller, meaner, and can still threaten to beat Jamie's a$$ any day of the week. Jamie is soo stupid in this episode, why would you buy a used bike from your former bully and by the word buy I mean, put a down payment of $10 and not have a plan to pay the other $100 you still owe. He starts a dating service for 12 year olds. One kid has a mad thing for Marilyn Monroe, WTH! It's 1987, there weren't any girls on TV or supermodels or someone younger this kid Herbert could have a crush on like Alyssa Milano from Who's The Boss. Granted, that show was only in it's 3rd Season at the time this episode aired, but at least she would be closer to his age and more believable that a 1950's Hollywood starlet icon. Just by this dialogue in this episode you can tell the writers are old men, writing for 12 year olds. Maybe one of them had a massive thing for Marilyn Monroe. Join me next month when I cover S2E18: Little Miss Shopping Mall, which aired on February 7, 1987. In this episode Against Ted's wishes, Joan enlists Vicki into the "Little Miss Shopping Mall" Beauty Pageant. After finding out that Harriet is also in the pageant, Ted changes his mind. So, I guess this means, we get the return of Boonie Brindle (GAH!!). I hope you enjoy the podcast episode everyone! Have a great week!

Hey Tanner Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, in honor of Bob Saget's (Danny Tanner) Heavenly Birthday, I am covering Full House S4E15: Ol' Brown Eyes, which aired January 11, 1991. In this episode Danny feels uncool when DJ turns to Joey and Jesse instead of him. I enjoyed this episode, it being one I don't really watch in my regular rotation. Danny thinking he was going to surprise DJ at this fundraiser she put together for her school by singing the song "My Generation" was ridiculous. Even Jesse, Joey and Becky try to talk him out of it and thankfully DJ catches him ahead of time when she walks into the livingroom and sees him singing this song dressed in a metal holed black leather jacket and leather pants with a grinning skull t-shirt. I would be embarrassed and uncomfortable too if I were her. Thankfully he comes to his senses. Why does it matter if DJ thinks he's cool or not. It seems like Danny is always trying to compete with Jesse for his kids attention of thinking he's cool and hip and with it. Michelle and the Hot and Cold game with Joey was hilarious, seeing him get so frustrated with her to the point where he is crawling around on the floor following her as she retraces her steps. Join me in June when I cover for the Father's Day Series, Full House S5E4: Where Oh Where Has My Little Girl Gone?, which aired on October 8, 1991. In this episode After snooping in DJ's room and finding out that a bad rumor about her has been spread around school and she refuses to talk to him about it, Danny worries that their father-daughter bond is fading.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered in honor of Podcast Listener Nicole's birthday, Ever After: A Cinderella Story(1998), starring Drew Barrymore and Anjelica Houston. Movie Synopsis: The Brothers Grimm arrive at the home of a wealthy Grande Dame who speaks of the many legends surrounding the fable of the cinder girl before telling the "true" story of her ancestor. For having not ever seen this movie before I really enjoyed it. It was sweet and adorable and heartwarming. Drew Barrymore does an amazing job in this. I really disliked Anjelica Houston's character the Stepmother, but then again how could you not since she has no redeeming qualities. The brunette stepsister Jacqueline was a sweetheart. I really hated how her mother and sister constantly fat shamed her throughout the movie. I hope you all enjoy listening to this movie review.

Happy Mother's Day Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm covering in honor of Mother's Day, Fuller House S5E6: The Mayor's Bird, which aired on December 19, 2019. In this episode the Mayor of San Francisco needs a house call to cure her bird, Ethan is invited to participate in Gibbler Game Night, Steph contemplates her future as mother of Dani. I thought this was a cute and funny episode. I really let my dislike for Gia be known even though she's not in this episode. Stephanie and baby Dani were so great, and Steph's voice is amazing. Steve handing out the advice to Steph when she is confused as to what direction to take her career now that she is a mom. Gibbler Game Night, woo boy, that was a wild and hilarious time. Ethan is a keeper, he's so sweet and understanding with Ramona and really cares about her. DJ and Matt with the After Hours Pet House Calls was funny too. I like that DJ and Matt can still be good friends after being romantically involved. Overall this episode provided a fun time and a good many laughs through out. Join me next week when I cover in honor of Bob Saget's birthday Full House S4E16: Ol' Brown Eyes, which aired on January 11, 1991. In this episode Danny feels uncool when DJ turns to Joey and Jesse instead of him. Have a great week everyone and I hope you enjoy the episode! To EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com
