Wonder With Us

In this tragically mis-titled episode, Dance With Me, we learn a painful, unavoidable truth. The Lisa Berlinis will always wind up with Brad Gaineses, and the Winnies will always aspire to the Kirk McRays.

Of course, it should have been called "I Dream of Winnie," and it includes a discussion of the harsh reality of being a adolescent longing for love: the fact is, you don't really understand what love is until you're well past the years when you first feel its pull.

So concludes our first season of Wonder With Us. It's been loads of fun and we're looking forward to starting up with Season 2 in the fall. Join us!

In this episode, "The Phone Call," we do indeed discuss calling people on the phone, and how one of us has never liked to do it and thanked all lucky stars when texting became en vogue. Also, ruminations on Pittsburgh (not) being the center of the universe, and a summary excoriation of arts camp (from one of us.) Also, who was Budd Dwyer? If you know, you know. If you don't, it's because YINZ AIN'T FROM DA 'BURGH. And looking it up might be a mistake.

A discussion about The Wonder Years Season 1 Episode 4, entitled "Angel," which includes ruminations on feminism and a debate about the Cold War and putative American imperialism. Plus, Jozy applies a now oft-used moniker to describe the hated villain in this episode, Louis, the vegetarian, free-loving college student whom Kevin dreams of punching out.

An actual quote from this episode: "They just threw the chicken, and who knows where it was supposed to land." Also - a burgeoning Wayne Theory.
