In this episode of Finding Danny Lightfoot, we uncover how we uncovered yearbook photos of Joe Torres, who played Danny Lightfoot on Nickelodeon’s Hey Dude. Thanks to our dedicated listeners and some online sleuthing, we’ve found photos of Joe Torres looking suave during his high school years.

We also discuss recent findings from Tucson newspapers about the local casting process for Hey Dude, providing more context to Joe Torres’ involvement in the show.

Additionally, we have an exciting announcement! We reached out to Michael Koegel, one of the casting directors from Hey Dude, who was instrumental in casting key roles such as Buddy and Danny. He graciously agreed to an interview, which will be featured in our next episode. Michael shares his experiences on the ground in Arizona, casting for Hey Dude and other Nickelodeon stars of the time.

Stay tuned for this exclusive interview and more insights into the legacy of Hey Dude. Thanks for joining us on this journey to uncover the mystery of Joe Torres.
