Welcome back to The Rewind Podcast! 

This week ⁠Keeks⁠ discusses the ups and many downs that led to the fall of the one-season, NBC, teen series with an all-star cast, Freaks & Geeks, while Jonah sits back to listen to the messy drama.

Freaks and Geeks Synopsis

Freaks and Geeks is a coming-of-age story set in a suburban Michigan high school during the 1980-81 school year. It follows Lindsay Weir, a bright student who begins hanging out with a group of slacker "freaks," and her younger brother Sam, who navigates life with his group of nerdy "geek" friends.
