Show Notes

If you grew up in the 80s, you knew that the video store on a Friday night was the place to be. But home video as we know it almost didn't happen if it wasn't for the Top Gun VHS release in 1986. This episode looks at how movie studios wanted nothing to do with home video or rentals, and how Top Gun changed all of this forever.
