11 - Behind The Laughter: Unveiling Nickelodeon's Hidden Stories (Dan Schneider, Brian Peck, Jason Handy)

In this episode, we dive deep into the nostalgic yet troubled waters of Nickelodeon's past based on the new documentary 'Quiet On The Set.' We explore the unsettling revelations surrounding figures like Dan Schneider and Brian Peck, and the impact their actions had on the child stars we grew up adoring like Drake Bell and Amanda Bynes.

 

This discussion isn't just about revisiting the shows that defined our childhood; it's about uncovering the complex, often hidden realities of the entertainment industry. Join us as we reflect on the era of TV that shaped us, the innocence lost, and what these revelations mean for the legacy of a network that was a cornerstone of our youth.
