Exhibit 38: BOY MEETS WORLD

Wandering down this [podcast] we call life...it's good to know I have [listeners] who will always stand by me...

Well, we hope you'll stand by us as we roll back to the peak of the 90s, with TGIF stalwart Boy Meets World. We watched child actors actually age gracefully while tackling a plethora of "very special" issues in a way only a 22-minute family-friendly sitcom can. Were we charmed by this particular boy and his world? Who comes out on top in the battle of the Savage wunkerkinds? Can we see beyond the "curtain" haircuts and mom (and dad!) jeans to appreciate this listener favorite?
