Punky Power Forever!

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

Soleil Moon Frye won our hearts as the beloved Punky Brewster in the 80's...but make no mistake, her incredible coming of age story happened in the 90s and she has the footage to prove it! She captured this magical decade in her movie "Kid 90" now streaming on Hulu. She tells us about the heart warming (and at times heart wrenching) look at life at the center of Hollywood's teen scene alongside Leonardo Di Caprio, Sara Gilbert, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, and so many more iconic 90s kids. A must watch film, and a Hey Dude episode you can't miss!
