The Wonder Years: S1E11: Brad Mitzvah

Happy Wonder Wednesday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I covered S1E11: Brad Mitzvah, which aired on January 12, 2022. In this episode Brad works through his nerves preparing for his bar mitzvah speech; Dean ends his friendship with Keisa when Charlene tells him he can't be friends with other girls. I really enjoyed this episode. Couldn't stand Charlene and her demands on Dean especially when it came to his friendship with Keisa and felt that it would have been nice to meet Brad's parents since this was about Brad's Bar Mitzvah. We did meet Brad's Aunt Ruth who turns out was a survivor of the Holocaust (Kim takes notice of the letter and number sequence on Aunt Ruth's arm) even though it wasn't mentioned in the episode or explored. I also played some clips from The Wonder Years Season 2 Birthday Boy episode where Paul has his Bar Mitzvah. Join me next week when I cover S1E12: I'm With The Band, which aired on January 19, 2022. In this episode when Dean loses his position as first chair saxophone in the school band, Bill lays the pressure on him to earn it back. Have a great week and please be safe if you are impacted by the Winter Storm this week like I will be. To EMAIL The Podcast GO TO: [email protected]
