Heartbreak & Hostages: The GenX Made for TV Movie

Join us in this special two-part episode devoted to the very special art form that was low on budget but high on love triangles, deadly diseases, killer bees and lots of hostages…the “Made for TV Movie.” We reminisce about it all…from the Steven Spielberg classic, “Duel” to the chilling “Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark” to the 1981 love triangle saga “Isabel’s Choice” starring Jean Stapleton (aka “Edith Bunker”) torn between the man who loves her and the man who needs her. Our friends, Beth and Kierstin, hosts of the “Made-for-TV Movie Club” podcast share what their favorite tv movies are. You’ll learn what movie made Kristin blush while watching with her grandmother. What tearjerker starred Michelle’s hall pass? Why does Carolyn need to visit the chiropractor after this episode? Go grab some Jiffy Pop and come along as we reminisce and laugh about those crazy plot lines that lured us to our couches in the 70s and 80s.
