b"Hey Seaver Fans,\\n\\nAngela Bowen here, the host of Show Me That Smile Again: A Growing Pains Podcast.\\n\\nToday, I covered S7E17: Menage a Luke, which aired on February 8, 1992.\\n\\nIn this episode Ben and Luke fight over a girl at school. Chrissy tries to understand her parents' jobs.\\n\\nI really liked this episode when it comes to what a sweetheart Luke is especially to Cheryl, he treats her with respect and Ben, well, he is just a major piece of shit this episode. Honestly, I blame the writers for not giving a shit about his character anymore. Granted, in the end he does learn a lesson on how to treat girls with respect and not view them as objects for you to use and abuse.\\n\\nI loved Chrissy in this episode with Maggie and Jason, learning about their jobs for a school assignment, getting them confused as Maggie and Jason come off as sexual deviants and still manages to end up having Jason and Maggie having a parent teacher conference phone call with Chrissy's teacher. Gah!\\n\\nComing in April, I'll be covering S4E2: Birth Of A Seaver, which aired on October 26, 1988.\\n\\nIn this episode Maggie goes into labor on Ben's Birthday, and she gives birth to a baby girl, meanwhile Ben wanders around the hospital and befriends an old patient named Chris. At the end Ben names his baby sister Christina.\\n\\nHave a great weekend everyone!"
