Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back on My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast. Today, I decided to cover one of my all time childhood favorite 90's Kid Sports Movies, and that is 1993's The Sandlot. This was such a fun rewatch and I actually noticed things on this viewing that I hadn't on my other multiple past viewings. Like Scotty Smalls has an autographed picture in his room of Mr. Wizard. as well as other things that I can't recollect at the moment. I thought this movie would be perfect to cover for the podcast during the summer time. Movie Synopsis: In the summer of 1962, a new kid in town is taken under the wing of a young baseball prodigy and his rowdy team, resulting in many adventures. I hope you all enjoy this podcast episode and have a great and safe 4th of July Holiday Weekend! To EMAIL The Podcast Go To: lbomwonderyearspodcast@gmail.com
