Period Drama from X to Z

What happens when a Gen X mother and her Gen Z daughter watch the same dramas but don't always have the same reactions? We may both love the period fashions but do we view scenes about sex and consent in the same way? Why is everything about "late stage capitalism" as our Gen Z guest insists? Join us for a special episode that covers "Bridgerton", "Pride & Prejudice", "Downton Abbey", "Mr. Selfridge"; "Rivals" "A Place to Call Home" and more!
