GenXElle: Raised on Reruns is a nostalgia-forward podcast for the generation raised on after-school specials, family dramas, variety shows, and sitcom living roomsHosted by lifelong TV kid Elle, each episode revisits the shows and characters that shaped us as kids, what we felt, what we believed, what we escaped into, and then looks at them again through adult eyes.
