b"Hey Seaver Fans,\\n\\nAngela Bowen here, the host of Show Me That Smile Again: A Growing Pains Podcast.\\n\\nToday in honor of Jeremy Miller's (Ben Seaver) Birthday (that was in October) I decided to cover S2E4: Call Me, which aired on November 11, 1986.\\n\\nIn this episode Maggie and Jason recall how Ben got himself into hot water by calling a pornographic hotline and then lying by putting the blame on a neighborhood kid for giving out the number.\\n\\nI liked this episode because it dealt with a subject that sitcoms in the 80's rarely talked about on TV, sex. I really think that it had a good lesson in parenting at the end with Jason telling Ben that calling that sex hotline was not the way to learn about sex and that if he has any questions he should come to his parents. He also told Ben that sex is a beautiful and private thing that is shared between to people that love each other. I think this was a great message.\\n\\nJoin me next month when I call Growing Pains S5E24: Weekend At Mike's, which aired on April 4, 1990.\\n\\nIn this episode the Seavers discover they have termites and they move in temporary with Mike.\\n\\nI wanted to close out 2020 with a fun whole family episode.\\n\\nHave a great weekend everyone!"
