Movie Rental Stores
About This Episode
Remember walking down aisles of seemingly endless choices of movies? How about renting a movie based only on its cover and finding gems but more often terrible movies? Do you remember making mad dashes to the video store at 2am to avoid paying late fees? Join us as we talk about the experience of the movie rental store and how it was a major part of the lives of GenX’ers.
