Episode 02 - Between the Lines

Published: April 24, 2020, 5:09 p.m.

A once-muckraking newsroom of counter-culture idealists now struggles with dwindling finances and journalistic disillusionment. Is it every newspaper across the world? No! It\u2019s this week\u2019s movie\u2014Between The Lines, AKA the best (and only?) alt-weekly newspaper movie ever made. Jacob and Tara talk about how eerily this 1977 Joan Micklin Silver film mirrors their own newspaper experience, as well as asking for raises, weirdos walking in off the street, and Jeff Goldblum as Jeff Goldblum. As the tagline says, \u201cit\u2019s fun, adventure and romance, all on $75 a week.\u201d
