👋 Hi Panthers!!

It’s 2024 and Degrassi: School’s In! is back with a brand new episode covering Degrassi Junior High Season 1 Episode 5, “The Great Race”, with special guest (and #1 fan of this episode) Sierra! 

In this episode:  

Responding to sexist taunts, the girls' swim team challenges the boys' soccer team to a battle of the sexes. But when star swimmer Melanie gets teased about her first bra, she pulls out of the race. Meanwhile, Yick and Arthur attempt to speed up the process of puberty.  (Source: Apple TV)

Eevee and Sierra discuss possible parallels between this episode and later moments in the series, Degrassi books and fan-fiction, which characters they think are of the LGBT+ community, and so much more!  If you’re looking for a fresh and fun take on Classic Degrassi, this podcast is for you!

See you next month for "Rumor Has It"! Thanks for listening! Bye Panthers! 👋

*Apologies if there are any audio issues in this episode! I did my best to fix them!*
