Little House on the Prairie S8 EP4: Dark Sage

Join Jennie and Amye, sisters and sometimes mortal foes, as they dissect one of the most impactful shows from our shared, Gen X childhood: Little House on the Prairie.In season 8, episode 4, Doc Baker is overwhelmed with patients- both human and horse- and must hire an associate. Caleb LeDoux and his wife, Mattie, show up to relieve Doc, which should solve everything except…they’re Black. Harriet is her awful self, Nels has zero power, and Charles has to punch another townsperson out in order to save a baby. In the end, the fine people of Walnut Grove almost run off this super qualified doctor and his wife, until Rev saves the day. Despite the LeDouxs committing to staying in WG forever, we never see them again. In other news, we address the current state of the country after some SCOTUS rulings, Amye hands out some medical advice, and Jennie has gotten her hands on some German graph paper. For MORE content, become a Premium Patreon Subscriber!
