Our favorite golden retriever is back… and he is even sporting red hair!  Michael Cassidy returns to the clubhouse with Rachel and Melinda to discuss the very popular season 2, episode 23, The O.Sea.  There is a lot to unpack in this episode, so we broke it up into two parts! Hear about Michael’s interesting theory about this episode and it has to do with mermaids and the Flintstones.  Also hear about Melinda, Rachel, and Michael’s personal prom experiences.  And Michael gives us some behind-the-scenes scoop/coping technique on working with Adam Brody and his hilarious improvs.    Tune in next week as they share more memories from the O.Sea as well as never before discussed moments from their time on The O.C. The O.Sea synopsis: Zach and Seth are faced with a challenging dilemma that falls on the same night, who should take Summer to prom and who should go and meet George Lucas to discuss the publishing of their graphic novel.  Ryan, suspicious of Trey and Marissa's odd behavior, tries to piece together what happened to them while he was in Miami.   Meanwhile, Sandy takes extreme measures to help a recovering Kirsten.  And to avoid going broke, Julie decides to poison Caleb but it takes a surprising turn.   Please support our sponsors: Right now is the perfect time to try out Peloton.  The Peloton Bike + is now $500 less, it's the best price yet, including FREE delivery and setup.   Visit https://www.onepeloton.com to learn more.   ButcherBox is the subscription service that delivers high-quality meat and seafood right to your doorstep.
