Hey there Everybody,

Angela Bowen here, the host of Together, We're Gonna Find Our Way: An Unofficial Silver Spoons Podcast.

Kicking off Season 2 of Silver Spoons with S2E1: Passport to Pleasure, which aired on October 15, 1983.

In this episode After Ricky's Badger Patrol leader pulls out at late notice, he and Kate convince Edward to take the boys to the national convention in Chicago. While there, Derek and Ricky hatch a plan to get lucky with some high school cheerleaders.

Things that came up in this episode that wouldn’t happen in a sitcom today.

Derek walking around a hotel room wearing just a towel and a bathing cap.

Ricky saying cheap sex

An older girl kissing a preteen boy

Kids basically running around unattended at a hotel.

I rated this episode 3/5 Trains.

1. Rick shaving

2. Derek singing Macho Man

3. Ricky gets a kiss and Derek is left standing mid pucker.

Next week on the podcast, Freddy gets a rude awakening while at Ricky's for a guy's sleepover in S2E2: Attack of the Giant Frog People, which aired on October 22, 1983.

In this episode Ricky has his friends Derek, J.T. and Freddy for a sleepover, but the boys play a cruel prank on Freddy - and Ricky makes it worse with a selfish remark. He feels guilty about his behavior, while Kate over-identifies with the taunting.
