Shaun Squad Society
The Shaun Squad Society Podcast is a podcast written, produced and hosted by three women who want to keep the Magic of a Midnight Sky alive!
Cindy, Dorese and Dame became friends at a Shaun Cassidy concert and immediately decided to form "The Shaun Squad." Soon after, the Shaun Squad Society Podcast was conceived to discuss and reminisce about all-things Shaun Cassidy, from his first years as a teen idol to his current career as a writer and producer.
This podcast brings together a community of Shaun's devoted fans, the ones who played his albums non-stop, and who tuned into The Hardy Boys Mysteries every Sunday evening. And now, 46 years later, Shaun's story-telling tour has delighted fans again. So, join us for the stories, fun-facts, and fascinating interviews as we take you down memory lane with our Teen Dream, Shaun Cassidy.

Welcome to the Shawn's Quad Society podcast, the podcast for all of us teeny boppers who were head over heels in love with our teen dream, shawn Cassidy. We believe that it's time to tell our stories and our words remembering the first time we discovered Shawn. Our podcast will feature stories of concerts, memorabilia and everything Shawn. So come along with us on this journey to share the stories that helped us create the Shawn's Quad Society podcast with your host myself, penny Day, medonna, cindy and Doreese. So today, as you know, we're going to talk about some memorabilia, and Cindy's got a good one, which one, I don't know. You were just reading it to me.
Speaker 4Oh yeah, my Shawn's Grabbook yes read your Shawn's Grabbook. Oh, do you want to know Shawn's future? Well, why?
Speaker 5don't we start off with Shawn telling us where he's going to be? 10 years from the day that book was written.
Speaker 4Well, let's see, this must have been the 70s. It's very old, and yellow pages, let's just say 78.
Speaker 578, all right. So in 1988, where did Shawn say he would be?
Speaker 4He would like to branch out in a completely different area of show business producing. I'd like to have my hands in every aspect of a TV show or movie, which I could do if I were a producer.
Speaker 1Wow, could Shawn see his future? Do you think he went there? Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 5I don't think he'll call New Amsterdam.
Speaker 1I mean seriously, roar. What are you talking?
Speaker 4about Exactly, I think he did it, he did it.
Speaker 1He did it, an invasion, exactly so I was saying I think he has mentions in his producing blue bloods. I mean lots, so send it back to what the psychic said.
Speaker 4The psychic the psychic book. He said one thing he vows to concentrate on above all else that it's a music Writing, composing, singing, rehearsing. I'll always write, he promises. That's my security, and Shawn will not fade from the scene as did many other teen idols. He is obviously looking forward to many years of entertaining and performing. There's no rush. He smiles Self-confidently. I plan to be around for a long time.
Speaker 5Well, here he is, here he is and where is he? Today, 2023.
Speaker 4And he kind of went away for a minute, but the boomerang came around again and he came back.
Speaker 5He came back Now the writing. He said he'll be writing, but he didn't do a lot of writing of songs, but he's certainly been writing Of shows, all kinds of TV shows.
Speaker 3They've been awesome too.
Speaker 1Yeah, and to speak of writing, I'm so upset about this writer strike because so many good shows are not on right now and I truly miss my summer series. And I mean Shawn even mentioned he in the process of writing something, but nothing can happen with it right now, so maybe he should tour. Well, yeah, maybe, absolutely Not. Maybe he should be touring. He's going to this fall, yes.
Speaker 5But I stand in solidarity. I'm not a writer, I'm not an actor and I certainly don't have to stand in solidarity, but coming from a union family, I know that these people wouldn't be striking if they didn't feel like they needed to. So I'll live without my shows for a minute.
Speaker 1They'll get it figured out. I'm watching reruns.
Speaker 5Yeah, this is time for us to break out all our streaming devices and find some of the great shows that we talked about before, and let's start watching them that we didn't see.
Speaker 4And it's fun because it brings back a lot of memories. I loved it.
Speaker 1Yeah Well, I'm glad Shawn could see his future.
Speaker 4I mean really, the book was right. The book was right, it was the second greater. How did we know?
Speaker 3I was reading it last night and I thought it was really cute because we know he's a romantic. We were at his Father's Day show and he got up there and he talked about how proud he was to be a father and that was what was most important to him. But he also said that that happened because he was such a romantic and I thought it was cute in here because he said that. Then, when he was 19 years old, he said he likes women that know who they are, that are comfortable, natural, and he even said affectionate.
Speaker 5I think it was over women. And I'm married to Shawn Cassidy, that's everything he just said Day was me so romantic.
Speaker 1Why not? Did you see his Instagram post this morning? Yes, oh my god, how sweet. Speak of romantic day, he posted a picture of Tracy and they were at a wedding and he wrote we're at a wedding and I'm looking at her saying I just want to marry her all over again.
Speaker 4Oh, too romantic.
Speaker 1Too romantic, but anyway, let's go back to her memorabilia.
Speaker 4My memorabilia lasted all these years as yours, Doris. We had this hidden away somewhere in the attic.
Speaker 5I had mine hidden in the attic for years. I remember during COVID all these people were talking about all their little hidden treasures they were finding and I kept saying I had something in the attic. And one day Cindy said go up and get the crap out of the attic. And I said but it's hot in that attic. But I climbed up there and I got all of this big, huge trunk of memorabilia out of my attic and then I started going through it and Cindy and I realized we have pretty much the same stuff Lost. Your Tiger beats where I still have all of my flood.
Speaker 4So I did lose my Tiger beats and my albums, but I did replace a lot of them.
Speaker 5I had every single Tiger beat. I was not a fan of the other team magazine, so I'm kind of loyal, I stick to what I like. So I got all my Tiger beats and all of the books, like the Sean Cassidy scrapbook, all of the different special edition books and things, newspaper articles. But I got to tell you guys the one thing that I really have that one day I'm going to share it with you guys. I haven't, I don't, I don't have it to share, but I will talk about it.
Speaker 5When I, when I was 14, 15 years old, 16, I was writing poetry and I was just starting to dabble one to it and the Hardy Boy started on TV in January 1977. And I couldn't believe, like the rest of us, this, this person on my TV screen. So one day I wrote a poem about him called Sean, and it was the very first poem I ever wrote and it started out On the 27th day of September in 1958, a child was born a little too late. I first saw his face in January of 1977. And when I looked into his face I thought I was in heaven. And it goes on and on with silly rhymes and lyrics like that. It was ridiculous and silly. No, but it is with a little first assessment, like I can't remember the line before it. But it said he'll never have to worry about fans love, because he'll always have mine, and that's how it ends.
Speaker 5I'm going to find it and share it and we'll talk about it, maybe, maybe I'll put it in our social media.
Speaker 1Well, speak of poetry, you know when he was in, like normal people.
Speaker 5Yeah.
Speaker 1He was a poet. He wrote such beautiful poetry.
Speaker 2Yeah he did, oh my.
Speaker 1God.
Speaker 4Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 1Oh well, I actually got this from my sister yesterday and it's the 19 May of 1977 Tiger Beat magazine.
Speaker 4And who's on the cover? Sean is on the cover.
Speaker 3Okay, just making sure, any which one is it?
Speaker 1Cause I have a bunch of those. Which one? The May of 1977. And Sean has on that red and white striped shirt from yes, may of not.
Speaker 3Ooh, I think I'm looking at it, that's like on Cassidy, on Tiger Beat.
Speaker 1Yes, I have that one right here in my hands. Speak of, speak of different magazines that you were talking about. Real fast, darius, like I don't know how I thought of this, but was there a magazine called 16?
Speaker 4Yes, I bought those two. Okay, see you a long time ago.
Speaker 1But I just the first page I opened up to when I was like thumbing through this was called Sean and Parker's real life adventures. And so here it is, all these cute little pictures of Sean and Parker. But it and this also made me think of the writer's strike is, if you watch the super new series the Hardy Boys on ABC TV, then you've seen all of the exciting and sometimes scary situations Sean and Parker get into as Frank and Joe Hardy. But the experiment doesn't always stop when the cameras do. You know it just like makes you wonder, like a penny on the front is a Sean Cassidy.
Speaker 3He will steal your heart.
Speaker 1No, it's not. What is it what it says? No, Will he. What does it say?
Speaker 3Mine on the bottom.
Speaker 1It says that he will. Yes, he will, he did it's for an ever thing. But you know it goes on and on about the whole thing and you know I just love going back to these magazines and just thumbing through them and the excitement they brought us. I just love all the things you can cut out and send in. For $1.50. You can get this and you can get this autographed. You know shiny thing, or you know, be a fan member, yeah, and my mother wouldn't sponsor my Sean Cassidy needs at that time.
Speaker 4Yeah, I had to do. I get babysitting money to join all those, yeah, extra yeah.
Speaker 1Like this one on sale everywhere now.
Speaker 4Don't miss this issue, you know, or whatever, but and you knew when those issues came out, cause I would go to the. I went to the bookstore at the mall. They had those magazines. They were like 75 cents, I think. Is that what it says in the front? 75 cents?
Speaker 1Wait, let's see how much this one yeah, they were they were 75 cents.
Speaker 5Did they have these in?
Speaker 3Scholastic too? No, I don't think so. I remember getting some other things. Okay, I got his books.
Speaker 5I wouldn't have to walk cause the summer, when the summer editions would come out, school would be out and I couldn't go to the Walgreens by my house to get them Because again in my neighborhood there was no Sean Cassidy to be sold. But I would walk by my school, take the bus or walk and we would go and buy the magazine. Like you said, we all knew when they were going out, when the issue. Oh, you knew.
Speaker 4Yeah, I was here the first day when they and they smelled so good. The first day, yes.
Speaker 5I couldn't wait.
Speaker 4I remember, I just couldn't wait for home and look front to back, did you?
Speaker 3buy the new one. Did you buy the new people magazine?
Speaker 1Oh yeah, I have it but I someone gave it to me but I think they're like 899 or something.
Speaker 3Compared yeah. Compare them to the press, yeah.
Speaker 5Yeah, 10 times what we paid in 1977. And there's less pages. Oh my God, very small.
Speaker 1I'm thumbing through this magazine and I totally forgot about Starsky and Hodge.
Speaker 4I remember that I mean Starsky and Hodge. They're a cool duo.
Speaker 1Yeah, very cool duo.
Speaker 4I think Paul Glazier worked with Sean before on some shows. I think, so I think he was Starsky Michael Glazier, you think so? Yeah, there was some connection with Sean.
Speaker 5Yes, Well, he did start directing and producing, so maybe they did collaborate.
Speaker 4There was something connection with that. Yes, I don't know the exact connection, but yes, there are.
Speaker 5You know I used to really get kind of mad when Tiger Beat would share the cover. Like I wanted Sean to be exclusive on the cover. Oh yes, and I have like Tiger Beat with how, these little spinoff sister magazines. So they got Tiger Beat Team View. So I have like February 1979 and there's Sean and Leif Garrett and I'm like really you really want to put Leif and Dirk and Erica Strada on the same cover with Sean. I would get real mad yeah.
Speaker 1You know. Here's another one, tiger Beat's secrets, things you don't know about your favorite star, sean Cassidy. Is it one to get all misty eyed or Nostal?
Speaker 5I say this one all the time Nostalgic.
Speaker 1Nostalgic about the past, in fact, this is Nostalgic. Oh yeah, are you reading it? No, but I can't.
Speaker 3I haven't opened it.
Speaker 1He'd rather just forget about his own fairly recent past. Specifically, sean is really glad he's not 15 anymore. I wonder what happened when he was 15.
Speaker 4He's an old soul, though I think he's more mature, he's better as an adult.
Speaker 1All that age he was a member of a hard rock band called Long Fellows. Somebody looked it up Long Fellows.
Speaker 4I never heard any of their music, have you no? But, I'm gonna look it up now Long Fellows Well wait.
Speaker 1You got something to add to this.
Speaker 5Just wait, there is more. So you know, back in 1979 Sean Cassidy had the girls and they told me that right here in Tiger Beat Team View that Sean Cassidy, he's got the girls right there.
Speaker 1Right there, where are they?
Speaker 4Where they at.
Speaker 1Right here, here's one he's got me. They're in the studio.
Speaker 5He's got us. He said it right here behind every successful man there's a woman.
Speaker 4Well, here we are all four of us.
Speaker 5Yeah, and what that means is a lot of women are partially responsible for the success of a lot of guys because the work they do behind the scenes Well. With Sean Cassidy, the saying is true there it is. And they told us right here where to write him to become one of his harem. Apparently, wait, wait, wait. Right there it says right to Sean Cassidy Kara Team View 76th the Hollywood Boulevard, suite 800. Hollywood, california, 900028.
Speaker 1Hey guys, you think he got those. Well, you know what. You don't have to challenge me, because I'm going to do this. I am going to write a few letters to Sean from some of these articles. I really am. Let's just see what comes back. I know that's why I'm doing it. Just see what comes back.
Speaker 4When I wrote back in the day.
Speaker 1But that was back in the day.
Speaker 4So he must have got him then that was 40 years ago. He got my letter, then Well, let's just go with it.
Speaker 1Let's just go with it. Let's try it. Can you imagine he's still going through them all?
Speaker 5Well, whatever would be standing at 76th the Hollywood Boulevard right now, I wonder how many letters they got.
Speaker 1I don't know, but this goes on to say the Longfellow's, and they presented a kind of rough, leather image that Sean would like to forget completely. He's much more mature now and into soft ballads. Soft ballads, no, no, my finger was over your finger was covering the heart. Soft ballads. It's more about soft ballads and folk music. I don't know, have we heard Sean do folk music?
Speaker 5There's a genre I haven't quite heard him do yet Folk music you have to Right over 76th, the Hollywood Boulevard.
Speaker 1Ask him, where's the folk music? But here it also goes on to say his latest single A Big Hit in England is titled the Two of Rhynron. There you go. That's what you're saying. Is that a soft ballad?
Speaker 4No, no, it's a pop song. I know Norths it's funky, but right.
Speaker 3But you were saying he did music there and stuff that was cool.
Speaker 5In one of our other episodes we were mentioning how American artists get their start in England or Europe, and they just went on to see the magazines never lied to us.
Speaker 1See never lied.
Speaker 5Has confirmed everything.
Nostalgic Memories of Shaun Cassidy
Speaker 1Go Tiger. So I was just trying to find a horoscope in this magazine, but I couldn't find one. But I did see this little thing and it says that Sean is a Libra, which we know, and it says that he's a romantic, he is secure, understanding and fun loving, which is very true. He is all of the Bob. But let's compare him. How about that? Can we compare him to Donnie Osmond, who is a Sagittarius, who is handsome, versatile, playful and affectionate?
Speaker 4again.
Speaker 1I agree, and then let's go with, is it Leif?
Speaker 4Leif, leif, leif.
Speaker 5Leif.
Speaker 4Gert, this is not about that name. I don't know.
Speaker 1She must have been in pain when she yelled that one out.
Speaker 4Yeah, I don't know where that came from Bye.
Speaker 1Sensuous, ambitious, outgoing and dramatic. I will say he's dramatic.
Speaker 5Late Garrett was dramatic.
Speaker 1Dramatic.
Speaker 5Yeah.
Speaker 1I met him at a record store with my friend.
Speaker 4She went there to get his autograph, but then as soon as he walked out she lost it. So I gave her my autograph because I know if that happened to Sean she would give me her autograph.
Speaker 1Well, I don't know, was that the same friend who did not take you backstage? No, it wasn't Right.
Speaker 3You guys, or better friends.
Speaker 5On our little table of memorabilia. Here we have a notebook.
Speaker 4Yes, I've had that a long time and look, it's a good shape, it's a spiral bound notebook.
Speaker 5We all had them in school and it's got Sean Cassidy on the front and he's standing there in his jacket with his satin scarf and he's doing the Sean Cassidy pose. It's a nice pic and obviously Cindy never wrote no In his notebook.
Speaker 4It's a virgin notebook, that's wide ruled.
Speaker 2That's wide ruled.
Speaker 4Wide ruled. That is not college ruled. This was not oh Sean's playing music. That was not to be used in school. That was not.
Speaker 2I've gotta do that. How can we touch that?
Speaker 5This is old. This has gotta be from 77.
Speaker 1It is. Yeah, oh my God, what does it say on the back? Teen scene.
Speaker 4Teen scene. I had a couple of those. I don't know where the other one is, but there were two different pictures and I had both.
Speaker 5So you obviously lived in a community. I can't stress enough. My neighborhood didn't sell this stuff. So you know what I had to do and I did it Take a bus. No, I went to, I went and I was working part time downtown at Sears Tower. I was in high school but I was in a work study program. So I went to work half a day and went to school half a day and I went into the copy room and I took pictures from the Tiger Beat or anywhere else I had them and I would take the Xerox machine and lay Sean on there and I would make my own Sean Cassidy personal stationery.
Speaker 4Oh nice.
Speaker 5I would write all my letters to all my friends over the summer on my Sean Cassidy personal stationery. Well, the word got out of my one. Girlfriend had me do it for Scott Bale, cause she loves Scott Bale.
Speaker 4We have to share. You know, you have to be consider of other idols.
Speaker 5So I'm buying my Sean Cassidy notebook, but I was downtown making Sean Cassidy personal stationery that's great and I was supposed to be working at my work study program job.
Speaker 3Did you girls get the poster that goes on the back of the doors like the full poster?
Speaker 4Yes, I have it. It's not a good shape, but I have it. I have one too. I wish I could put it back on my door.
Speaker 1Thumb in through this one and only magazine that I really have, that my sister gave me, I found a really cool centerfold, which one.

Speaker 4Yes, sean Button. But yes, my favorite of all is my silk pillowcase with Sean's face on it. This was at the department store as a display and it was hanging along with another poster of him of his first record and they gave it to me for free. I just had to ask for it and they gave it to me. It's been in a plastic baggie all these years. It's been what say over 40 years old. Now it's in pretty good shape. But no, I never put it on my bed. I never used it. I kept it tucked away.
Speaker 1OK, get your pencils and paper ready people, or your pencil and paper. We are going to start a campaign right here, right now.

Call right now. Oh wait, let's do it.
Speaker 4Let's call right now. Just tell them right, We'll just leave them a request.
Speaker 1Let's do it, why not? I mean, well, let's pick up some memorabilia stuff to talk about while I do this.
Speaker 4Tell Mrs Sean's class society calling and we would like Sean on your show.
Speaker 5Well, while you do that, I'm gonna tell you about when I was in high school or actually, yeah, I think it started in eighth grade, maybe just in high school I would write whatever we had to write about. So I would take my articles. Whatever we had to write about, whether it was current affairs or they said, write a paper, mine would always be about Sean Cassidy. Everything I wrote had to be about Sean Cassidy. So I saved all of my papers and all of my essays that's what they're called all my compositions and essays, and I would get them back. I saved them all, every one of them. I got like A minus or B plus. I would never get a plus. Of course, you did Look A. I wanted a solid A. I don't want A minus and B plus.
Speaker 1I'm gonna show on Cassidy. It's about Sean A plus, yes, there you go.
Speaker 3That's what he's gonna say.
Speaker 5So all of that stuff is in my memorabilia box and I'd like to one day get it all organized and have it.
Speaker 4Yeah, I drew a picture of Sean in high school in our class.
Speaker 1Didn't you share that with us before, Cindy?
Speaker 4Yes, that's my memorabilia, but that has an autograph. He signed it, so that's really important.
Speaker 1Oh, your memorabilia, yeah no, well, you shared that story on his concerts.
Speaker 4With concerts.
Speaker 1Yeah, yes, he signed it. We still haven't seen it yet. Okay, it's your turn, Dane talk.
Speaker 3Well, first of all, since we're talking about memorabilia, how many of you saw my picture with just a few things about Sean on it?
Speaker 1Wait, you mean the one that took over like your whole bedroom and your whole bedroom floor and your whole bed.
Speaker 3Yes, just your few things so you know what I hide in that closet? Oh dear, oh dear. Just a few of them, and that's not everything. Now you can see why my mom tried to hide the stuff I had because I had too much.
Speaker 1Yeah, had so much. But, like I said, between moves and between husband one and husband two and I had a bunch of albums and memorabilia stuff. Somewhere they went missing and I think I know where to.
Speaker 5Well, see, that teaches you, management has it.
Speaker 1The one thing that I'm learning from this don't get married.
Speaker 5Yeah, my stuff is safe with me, been with me for 45 years. I never had a husband come after my stuff.
Speaker 4That's why I said mine survived three husbands. How did it happen, I don't know. You were lucky, it was meant to be just happened.
Speaker 5I have my hardy boy stuff, my hardy boy stuff did fall under the wrath of my mom back in the day, but I managed to keep my hardy boys fan club membership card because I had it in the wallet with me at school, like they, and she didn't get it.
Speaker 4I had it for a long time. I recently lost it. I did have it, though, but I have the pamphlets they sent you with their pictures in it.
Speaker 5I don't have my pamphlets. I do have their little wallet size pictures, because they were in that wallet with me at school.
Speaker 4But your fan club card was like a plastic credit card, right yeah, and you had a number on it too. You had a raised number, a raised number yeah.

Okay now, hey, let's go back to our memorabilia. We have a book here. We got a book here, the Shirley Jones There's-. Oh, I have that book, the the Mama.
Speaker 2I can't see the writing.
Speaker 1I tried to get my mother-in-law to read it that is well, I don't know if you want your mother-in-law to read it to me.
Speaker 3I tried to get her to. She wanted something real, like something that was accurate.
Speaker 1Well, I get this. This real is accurate. I guess this is really inaccurate.
Speaker 5Well, we all know that Shirley is a little bit sassy and saucy, so I can imagine the words she used in this book.
Speaker 1Right, and I love the back cover, but Doree's just gonna read the front cover for us.
Speaker 3The front clip. Okay, let me get my book. I have one here too.
Speaker 5Okay, I'm gonna read a few sentences from the front cover. She sang her way into America's heart in classic films like Oklahoma Carousel and the Music man. She won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in Elma Gentry and she played one of television's most beloved moms in the iconic 1976 calm the Partridge Family. So from Golden Voice to bus driving mother, a pop band, shirley Jones has always seemed to appear and wholesome as her squeaky clean image. But now she's ready to set the record straight and her memoir as shockingly candid, deliciously juicy and delightfully frank as the star herself.
Speaker 1You know, I remember someone asking Sean about if he was going to read his mother's book, and he did say he started reading it. That's all he said. I'm sure he skipped some pages.
Speaker 3Well, you know? Yeah, I don't think he liked it that much.
Speaker 1Well, I did not so much that he liked it or didn't like it, but you know, she candidly said there was stuff in there and there's probably stuff in there that a son doesn't want to hear about his mother. I wouldn't read it either, you know, point blank. I mean I wouldn't want to know that stuff about my mom or my dad. So there's only certain things you read and you know things you don't. I suppose I love this picture of her on the front. It's beautiful, but she's beautiful. Why does she 90? No, 88 or 89. Oh yeah, 88 or 89, now something. Sean looks like her, doesn't he? Oh, a lot. I mean, they have definitely good family genes, but she still looks so darling, so precious.
Speaker 5She still looks so darling. She really is a gem.
Speaker 1She is a gem.
Speaker 5A treasure.
Speaker 1But I love the back. You know it's her and Oklahoma Carousel the Partridge family, alma, gentry. Yes, you know, I just love it. I just love her. I don't care what she wrote in the book, and I'm definitely going to be reading it because we're going to have an episode on her one day. We're going to do an episode on her, so I've definitely got to read the book. We'll share the juicy parts and all about something else to talk about, but what more memorabilia do we want to talk about?
Speaker 5Let's talk about really fast what we have from today. You know we talked about the past. Yeah we have a lot of good we do from today.
Speaker 4Yeah, there's more memorabilia at the concerts.
Speaker 5So first of all, remember, after one of the concerts before we became the Sean Squad Society podcast, we were just simply the Sean Squad, yes, and we were interviewed by a local magazine right here in Chicagoland called the Glancer magazine and that magazine article actually is a really good magazine article and I think that catapults it on into becoming the Sean Squad Society podcast, correct?
Speaker 4Yeah, absolutely, that was another stepping stone.
Speaker 5Yes, I hold this article near and dear and if anyone wants to read it, you can find it online on our website.
Speaker 1But it is on our website. Yeah, or Google us, it pops right up. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4If you type in Glancer magazine Sean Cassidy, our article comes up.
Speaker 1Yeah, yes, and who wrote it? I can't remember her name.
Speaker 3She was friendly, real friendly, and didn't we hang out with them afterwards, like at the tables out there?
Speaker 1They. We were up in the speakeasy room just checking it out and we were just in the restaurant. We were in this one room just hanging out and talking and sitting there and we were just doing some pictures after the show and this girl walked up and she asked if we were in the front row and yeah, they remember us.
Speaker 1And I think she asked me if Sean had a conversation with me. Because didn't he ask me, like if I ever sat down or something, or there was something. We're always in the front row and Penny's standing up. Yeah, and there was something to it, and so she she went and got her friend, because I didn't. We have our Sean Squad shirts on, and then we changed our shirts.
Speaker 5We had our Sean Squad shirts on. We kept them on, I think that was the father. Then we had to change back on we were at the theater for that show and we wanted to do a special message to Sean, yes. So we had the front row all hold up a letter, yep, and we smelled out happy. Everybody in the front row had a letter Yep, and we brought electricity and enthusiasm to such an extent that we caught the attention of the lady who was the writer for Glancer Magazine.
Speaker 1Yeah, so it was like a total surprise to us that we got this and she was the nicest lady and wrote the most beautiful article about us. Does it tell here? I'm trying to find her name.
Speaker 3Yes, Really, cindy turned mine into a magazine. Yeah, we just what we have, yeah, so amazing.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1I mean it's great, yeah. So if you guys haven't seen that yet, definitely look it up.
Speaker 5It's great, it's one of my favorite, one of our most recent memorabilia.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 5And we also all have the poster that came with the concert. They let us have a couple of other promotional posters, so that was really one of the best days ever being a Sean squad sister and, like I said, it was the beginning of our journey to becoming a Sean squad society podcast.
Speaker 4Absolutely Anymore memorabilia besides our current t-shirts and our jackets.
Speaker 3Well, I have a picture and it's Hardy Boy's picture, but it has both of them in it and it has their separate signatures in different colors with Sharpies. I think that is so cool. Parker Stevenson and Sean Cassidy yeah.
Speaker 4They make some good pictures together.
Speaker 3And I just love that they both signed it in different colored permanent markers.
Speaker 5That is very cool.
Exploring the Shaun Squad Society Podcast
Speaker 1Yeah Well, this episode of memorabilia was kind of short and very limited with what I'm hearing, because everybody has bins and bins and bins oh, there's so much more and addicts of memorabilia, so maybe our next one will be the memorabilia party when we help Doreese get hers organized and put in binders and sleeves and stuff. Yeah, what's in her box? I want to see what's in her box. I remember a bilia box, but I'm going to have to.
Speaker 5It's going to take a lot of work to get that thing together. I'm telling you, that's what we're here for, yep.
Speaker 1And before we go, thank you from the bottom of our teen dream hearts. Keep on crushing, Always believe in magic.
