Hey Everyone,

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

Today, I covered S4E5: The Great Baseball Card Scheme, which aired on October 27, 1985.

In this episode When Edward's father visits, he has an episode and the doctor tells him to rest. But he gets bored. He needs to do some kind of trading. And when he sees Ricky trading baseball cards, he comes up with his own way to upgrade the card's value. And Ricky becomes just as ruthless when he trades.

I was really surprised by this episode going into it thinking it was gonna be a dud, it turned out to be very insightful.

I learned about about the average annual salary of a baseball player’s salary from 1985 to now, got some insight into Tommy Lasorda, and the idea of supply and demand.

Join me next week when I cover Silver Spoons S4E6: The Trouble With Harry, which aired on November 3, 1985.

In this episode Kate's uncle Harry overstays his welcome at the Strattons' and even pretends to own the house to impress his old rival.
