    I’ve commented on this amazing podcast before, Im definitely nervous to do this, but I feel I’ve given myself enough time to tell my story. I was born in October 1994 and I know that I’ve been watching Barney as early as 6 months old. My mom could always put me in my highchair, put Barney on and she knew that she could get everything she needed to get done as long as Barney was on TV. Sadly, when I was just 18 months old, my parents got divorced. It was a very bad divorce to handle, but Barney always made that pain a little less painful. Then when I was 5, my mom got remarried and we moved away from my childhood home, away from my biological father, to go live with my mom and stepdad. It was a very hard transition, but Barney was always there to comfort me. One of my favorite songs at that time was “My Family’s Just Right for Me” because there was a lyric that always stuck with me from that song, 🎼”There’s a girl I know who lives with her mom, her dad lives far away. Although she sees her parents just one at a time, they both love her everyday!”🎼 I thought that song was written just for me and it was such a comfort to hear that song. The older I got my life got more difficult between bullying, self esteem/self worth issues, anxiety and the worst was when I was 15 years old and my biological father decided he no longer wanted to be in my life. Depression and Anxiety became a huge factor in my life. It was very hard to say this when I was a teenager because I was very embarrassed for anyone to know actually my mom always knew and by the grace of God, she was fully supportive in my love for my favorite purple dinosaur, but whenever I was having a really hard day, I would always turn back to Barney. Even as a teenager, Barney still comforted me. He always had this way about him that truly made my heart feel better in any situation. Even if it was just for a little while. I also found that when I was having moments of anxiety, I didn’t notice this at first. I started to realize that if I was having a panic attack, to help me get through the anxiety, I started singing any song at all from Barney to myself and instantly I was calm again. Amazingly, I still do it to this day. Barney has always been such an amazing friend to me my entire life and to this day even though I am going to be 25 years old on October 28th. I can honestly say that Barney is still a friend to me. I still find great comfort in him and I always will. One day when I have children, my children will know who Barney is. I will make sure that he is a part of their lives, just as much as he has always been a part of mine. I want my kids to know that they can always go to Barney whenever they feel sad, alone or just need a friend because I have had many friends and family come into my life and leave for good, but the one friend who has always stayed by my side....is Barney. Thank you for doing this podcast and proving to me that I am not the only one who truly does still need Barney in their life no matter how old we get💜💜

    26:17 The boy in the balloon next to Barney and Deborah Cole is Austin Lux, who portrayed Ben on the show. (That was on the set of "Big World Adventure")

    I do remember The Land Of Make-Believe video in 2005. I got the DVD and I recognize that guy jogging at the beginning Mr. Barnes is Carey Stinson. Also Carey did appeared in Season 8 episode Play Piano With Me in 2003 at the beginning playing the music on an accordion sitting on the bench in the park when the show started so what does Fred Holmes mean Carey didn't appear as himself on the series. Carey Stinson did once.

      Judging by the date on the camera, it could be a Season 13 episode, but none of the episodes of that season end with Barney in front of those marshmallows with sticks.
