SS9 - Starring the Baby-sitters Club: “Sing Out, Louise!” (ft. Donny Hadfield-Smith!)

Stuck in Stoneybrook: A Baby-Sitters Club Podcast

We met Donny on Instagram and could tell immediately that he was the kind of *STAR* we needed to discuss SS9, “Starring the Baby-sitters Club!” We learn about Donny’s antics on Instagram, TikTok, and Elon Musk’s Twitter while we discuss just how racist and sexist “Peter Pan” is, how good theater is for teenagers (according to theater teachers: VERY GOOD), and delve a little into what choices high schools make in their play and musical selections across the decades. Come with us and SING OUT, LOUISE! In this particular “Hot Take,” we relive one of Emily's favorite childhood books: “The Box Car Children,” which to the title is about children who… live in a literal box car. We explore just how darn *INDUSTRIOUS* these kids are, why Henry is so fast (Anne's verdict: "practical") and how the three of us would fare as orphan sisters in a boxcar or abandoned barn. You're not wrong if you assume we may be in trouble.
