38: THAT CERTAIN SUMMER with Bryan Safi

Happy pride month! To celebrate the gayer side of made-for-TV magic, Sam is giving you the gift of a new episode that is not about a horror film. I know, I know. THAT CERTAIN SUMMER is a 1972 drama starring Hal Holbrook and Martin Sheen, and it’s the first teleplay to address the subject of homosexuality in a positive, sympathetic manner. It’s actually a good movie this time. Sam is joined by Bryan Safi — actor, comedian and host of the Throwing Shade podcast — to talk through this TV movie milestone. And no worries: We will be back next week with the first episode of the new season.
