Diff'rent Strokes To Move The World Podcast: Introduction Episode

Published: Jan. 1, 2020, 7:43 p.m.

Happy 2020 Everyone,\n\nAngela Bowen here, the host of the brand new coming Spring 2020 Monthly Podcast, Diff'rent Strokes To Move The World: An Unofficial Diff'rent Strokes Podcast.\n\nIn this episode, I give history lesson on the show courtesy of the Internet, regarding the show, the characters, storylines and of course my history with the show. I came to the show in early 2019 through the DVD Season Sets and worked my way through the episodes.\n\nThis show really helped me last year as I dealt with the death of my father early on in 2019. The show along with the characters became a comfort to me as I watched the kids, Arnold, Willis and Kimberly grow and mature and develop as they faced one challenge after another over the course of 8 Seasons.\n\nI've been wanting to do a podcast on this show for a bit, of course as you regular listeners know, I have a pretty full podcast plate as it is at the moment, so for the time being will begin in Spring of 2020 so around April focusing on select episodes instead of episode by episode in order. It will be only available on the Punky Power Podcast Soundcloud Page just like the Silver Spoons Podcast (which will be covering the final two Seasons of the show Season 4 and 5 this year) is for the mean time. \n\nLike all the podcasts on this page this new podcast will be a clean family friendly podcast.\n\nCome back in April when I cover Diff'rent Strokes S1E1 Movin' In, which aired on November 3, 1978.\n\nIn this episode Philip Drummond is a wealthy Manhattan industrialist who takes in Arnold and Willis Jackson, the two sons of his late housekeeper; Drummond is white and the boys are black. Arnold, age 8, is excited about the opportunity of a privileged life, but Willis, age 13, feels that Mr. Drummond is trying to buy their love with expensive gifts.\n\nTo EMAIL The Podcast Go To:\n\npunkypowerpbpodcast@gmail.com\n\nHave a great start to the new year and I'll be back in April!
