THE RICHEST MAN IN WALNUT GROVE" RECAP!

Dean and Alison catch us up on their recent adventures at the Cherry Blossom Festival (spoiler: it was charming, floral, and probably involved a President's grandchild). We dip a toe into Waltons territory—just don’t say the “W” word around Pamela! And we’ve got an update on Baby Carrie, courtesy of the Greenbush twins themselves.Then it’s back to basics with the Season 2 premiere of Little House on the Prairie, “The Richest Man in Walnut Grove.” This episode is a beautiful reminder of the show’s core values—delivered with simplicity, warmth, and just enough hardship to cue the waterworks before the opening credits are done rolling. (Yes, it starts with cow-milking. Yes, we’re already crying.)The economic woes of the 1870s hit uncomfortably close to home for 1970s viewers—and, honestly, still hit today. Charles is broke (again), Mrs. Oleson is insufferable (as usual), Nellie and Willie are on their villain era tour (standard), and Ma and the girls show up as the resilient queens they are (per tradition). And Miss Whipple? She’s quietly running the town with a thimble in one hand and perhaps an illegal mani-pedi operation in her basement. Or is that just Pamela's theory? Regardless... she's a total Boss B.Of course, in true Little House fashion, there’s a moral twist: it’s not about money, it’s about love, community, and the kind of hard-earned respect you can’t buy at Olsen’s Mercantile. After all, Pa may be broke, but he's rich in love, sweat, and suspenders.Then, join us on Patreon!
