 80s TV Ladies, a new pop culture and social history podcast looking back at female-driven television shows from the 1980s (with some nods to the 1970s and 1990s), premieres July 20, 2022. The series is produced by 134 West and will be hosted by Susan Lambert Hatem and Sharon Johnson who will provide listeners with behind-the-scenes insight offered up by special guests from those shows. The podcast will be available on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, etc., with new episodes dropping every two weeks.

80s TV Ladies is tailored for lovers of pop culture, fans of the 1980s, aficionados of television, and followers of feminist and social history. Although the series is designed to be light-hearted pop-culture entertainment, and provide listeners with lots of retro love and laughter, it also seeks to seriously explore the role gender played in front of and behind the cameras in '80s programming. The show reckons with the conflicting messages these programs were sending to women, as well as men, throughout the decade and, thanks to syndication and now streaming platforms, for many years to come.
